Return Of The Prodigy
Return of the Prodigy Chapter 164

The black muzzle of a gun was trained on Jerry as they stood in front of the villa.

"I said, get out of my way!" Black Dragon said coldly.

Jerry held onto his katana without moving. The atmosphere was absolutely murderous, and a fight could break out any moment now!

"You asked for it!" Black Dragon narrowed his eyes murderously.

"El Coco is here!" a security guard yelled anxiously.

Right then, a Maybach drove toward the villa entrance. Before his subordinates were able to open the car door, Enrico got off the car and shouted, "Stop right there!"

Needless to say, it was a futile attempt. No one from the Black Snake Brigade gave a hoot about him! Countless thugs lay sprawled on the ground with broken limbs howling in pain.

Enrico's face twitched in anger. He strode over and shouted, "Where is Adam? Show your face this instant!"

Black Dragon glanced at Jerry coolly before pulling the gun back. "You're a decent guy. It's too bad you work for Enrico!" Then he turned to look at Enrico and said coldly, "Don't bother looking for him. They're with me."

Enrico charged up in front of Black Dragon angrily but then suppressed his anger and said, "What are you trying to do? Even if you're a soldier, you can't barge into private property, right? Explain yourselves!" "Mario has broken the law, so I was sent to arrest him. Is that reason good enough?" Black Dragon retorted.

Enrico froze momentarily before saying in annoyance, "Nonsense! You're abusing authority! My son is recuperating in the villa and hasn't gone out at all. How could he break the law?"

Black Dragon smiled coldly and replied, "Listen up. Your son colluded with foreigners to murder Drake the Dragon. Your son has hired mercenaries from abroad and helped them enter the country illegally. In the process, three women were killed. Your son was involved in the illegal trading of large amounts of ammunition! Every single deed he has done is punishable by death!"

With each charge Black Dragon mentioned, Enrico opened his eyes wider and wider. His face turned ghastly pale on hearing all the charges. For someone who was no stranger to the vicissitudes of life, he was genuinely startled when he heard what his son had been up to.

Enrico staggered and took a step back. Logan Gutierrez was just in time to hold him steady!

"El Coco!" said Logan softly.

Enrico knew Logan was signaling for him to control himself. He regained his composure and said angrily, "Impossible! He couldn't have done it."

He then glanced around and said fiercely, "Which one of you did it? Which one of you did it behind Mario's back? Step forward and fess up!" Everybody stayed quiet.

Time ticked and a whole minute passed before a thug finally stepped forward and said, "It was me."

Black Dragon scoffed and said, "Are you going to replace someone to take the fall for your son again? Are you going to help him escape? Enrico, do I look like an idiot to you? Do you think Drake the Dragon doesn't dare to touch you?"

At those words, the place plunged into a deathly silence.

Enrico looked at Black Dragon coldly and said indignantly, "Aren't you here for the culprit? You have your man. Just take him."

He did not once stop to suspect whether Black Dragon's accusations were legitimate. Since Black Dragon had the balls to come for Mario, he must possess iron-clad evidence. He needed to replace a scapegoat for Mario as soon as possible! He had to send Black Dragon away regardless of what it took.

Black Dragon looked at Enrico murderously as he said coldly, "Are you sure he is the culprit? In that case, let me ask a few questions."

Black Dragon then turned to look at the thug who had stepped forward.

The thug was so startled that he trembled with his head lowered and did not dare to make eye contact with Black Dragon.

"Did you hire mercenaries? What is the name of the organization? How did you communicate with them? Where did you get the money to do it? Who was their target? How did you get them into the country?" Black Dragon fired a volley of questions.

By now, the thug was trembling. Several times his mouth opened and closed in an attempt to speak, but he did not know any of the answers. He did not even know what the dark web was.

"I..." He hesitated for a long time but was unable to give a straight answer.

Black Dragon laughed coldly and said to Enrico, "This doesn't seem right. Didn't you say he did it? Enrico, Drake the Dragon didn't want trouble, so he let matters slide the last time you pulled the same stunt. Also, Jordan was genuinely guilty of killing someone! This time, do you think you can get your son off the hook by doing the same thing?"

"I don't understand what you're talking about," Enrico replied expressionlessly. "My son didn't break the law. If you have any doubts about the mastermind, you should question him instead. Isn't that your job?"

Logan kicked the thug to the ground and said furiously, "El Coco has shown you great kindness, but you turned your back against him and got Mario implicated. How could you do this to him? Have you ever thought about your family?"

The thug shivered as he looked at Enrico with his eyes in shock.

Enrico sneered as he veered his eyes from the thug.

Logan said furiously, "Are you scared now? If you come clean, Enrico will forgive you and take care of your family!"

The thug closed his eyes powerlessly. He gritted his teeth as he picked up an iron pole lying on the ground and plunged it into his stomach.

The thug screamed in agony as blood trickled down the iron pole drenching his clothes before dripping onto the ground!

Everyone watched as blood spewed from his body while he trembled until he was completely dead.

The crowd went quiet. The atmosphere in the villa was so tense that they had trouble breathing.

After some time, Enrico scoffed coolly and said, "Are you happy now? The culprit has already confessed and killed himself. You may help yourself to his body, but you have to leave now!"

Everyone turned to look at Black Dragon.

Black Dragon raised his brow and said menacingly, "Are you saying he's the killer? Enrico, just because you're rich doesn't give you the right to keep scapegoating others for your son's crimes. Is your son the only person who deserves to live? Don't you care about your men? How are you going to answer their mothers? Do you think you can make the problem go away with money? If you insist, I won't stop you.

"There are over 100 men present. Let them come forward! Let every single one of them confess! Then kill themselves in penance, why not! Let me make things clear. I won't say no if anyone wants to take the fall for your son, but no one can save your son today. I don't care how many of your men have to die today. No matter what you do, I'm taking Mario today!" Black Dragon spoke with determination in a resounding tone.

The men from Black Snake Brigade were so agitated that they held up their guns and shouted, "Attack!"

The atmosphere was so tense that it felt as though a storm was brewing in the backdrop!

The men from Black Snake Brigade stood behind Black Dragon with their guns trained on Enrico!

Enrico's men were so petrified that they shivered without making a sound!

Enrico looked worried. He glared at Black Dragon coldly wanting to kill him, but Black Dragon glowered right back at him fearlessly!

Neither party refused to back off! The atmosphere was explosive, and a fight was about to break out at any moment in the villa! Time ticked minute by minute.
