Branch Director Bru slowly sat down after speaking so much in one breath. He picked up his coffee and took a big gulp, "Listen to me, don't act rashly, Lance."
Lance shook his head slightly, "Actually, it's you who doesn't understand." He pondered for a moment, "I won't initiate a war with them, but if they attack me first, don't blame me for fighting back."
After thinking for a moment, Branch Director Bru gave him a confirming answer, "That's the best approach. If they're the ones who break the rules first, then it's much more justifiable for you to deal with them!"
He also understood when he uttered those words that Lance's purpose in saying this was to let him know that Lance would force the Red Dog Gang to make the first move, and then he would strike back with a good reason.
"When the time comes, we might need you to help us cover it up a bit. Once we act, we plan to end the war as quickly as possible so as not to cause too much fear in the local area."
