Underworld dealings, acceptable or not?
Gao Guang looked at Tom with an inquiring gaze, but Tom had no reaction. Then, Gao Guang gestured with his eyes, suggesting that Tom should offer another suggestion to consider.
It was supposed to be a choice between two options, but the real question was, what more could they possibly take from Ermao? Even if there were something, why should the Russians be the ones to take it?
As expected, Tom placed his hands on the table and said seriously, "You can't take something out of my pocket, place it in my hand, and then claim you've given it to me."
Baslov shrugged and said, "Then you're choosing the first option. We could target a wealthy arms dealer. That way, your loss would be transferred to someone else."
Tom replied indifferently, "If it comes to robbery, we could do it ourselves; why would we need you?"
Baslov smiled and said, "Because he's in Russia, and you can't go there to do it yourself."
