He whispered a few words to Qin Shuman, hung up the phone, and then stepped towards The Five Elders.
Soon, the two sides met.
Qiu Tu was the first to greet them, "Elder Lu, Elder Fang, Elder Tian, Elder Wei, Elder Xie. I'm truly indebted to you all today for helping vacate the villa next to mine to hide the troops."
"And for diverting the patrol away."
"Otherwise, my 'lure the enemy in deep' and 'catch them all in one go' plan tonight would have been quite difficult to execute."
Although Qiu Tu's main goal was to showcase his military strength in front of The Five Elders, the excuse he used was: United Front was as slippery as eels, if it was a chance encounter or an attempt to apprehend them in advance, there was a high chance that half would escape.
Hence, Qiu Tu wanted to use himself as bait to lure them into Longshan Road, and into his villa before capturing them all in one go.
The reason was both legitimate and reasonable.
