Things were already complicated, and now, facing retaliation and pursuit by the CIA, Lin Xianghua suddenly pulled this stunt, completely throwing off the rhythm.
The scene became awkward for a moment.
Gao Yi demanded an explanation, so Lin Xianghua had to give one.
"I thought I was about to die, so I had to come clean quickly, who knew I wouldn't die after all..."
He even knew about clemency through confession.
After learning Lin's true identity as a Ben, everything he said now seemed awfully impressive, as if he knew it all.
Feng Biao suddenly interjected, "Social death is still death."
Gao Yi said nonchalantly, "What was your purpose in approaching us? Do you have some ulterior motive, some conspiracy? Speak!"
Lin Xianghua, clearly agitated, was just about to argue when Li Jie added, "Don't say it like that. His grandfather was truly a friend, no, a comrade."
