Pei Xingchen certainly realized that the fire chief was trying to rescue the middle-aged man, but he did not continue to get angry, but decided to stop while he was ahead.

His original intention was not really to show off, but just to show his identity as a member of the Pei family in order to attract more attention from everyone present.

As for the middle-aged man, he can only be considered an unlucky guy who walked into the trap.

Even if he was not there, Pei Xingchen would just find someone to take advantage of the situation to establish his authority, with the purpose of letting everyone present know the seriousness of the matter.

People from the Pei family were being hunted on their own territory, and those people were so cruel that they wanted to blow up the entire building, endangering the safety of hundreds of people around them and causing immeasurable losses. What is the difference between such an act that is abhorrent to both humans and gods and that of a demon?

Isn't that enough for them to take action immediately and catch all the culprits?

Especially since these things happened in broad daylight, is there any justice in the world? Is there any law in the world?

Pei Xingchen saw that everyone was looking at him, and he had achieved his goal. He snorted coldly and said through gritted teeth: "Who is it?"

"Who else could it be other than those inhumane beasts under Chu Longtu?"

Pei Xingchen revealed Chu Longtu's name without hesitation. After all, Tian Qi and the others were just Chu Longtu's subordinates, and they acted according to Chu Longtu's will.

Therefore, there is no point in revealing their names. Even if you say them, people present probably won’t know them, so just put the blame on Chu Longtu!

However, Pei Xingchen overlooked one point, which was that not everyone present might know Chu Longtu's name.

As expected, when Pei Xingchen said Chu Longtu's name, most of the people present were confused, with their faces full of doubts about "Who is this person and how dare he go against the Pei family?"

Only the middle-aged man's expression suddenly changed, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly. He looked at Pei Xingchen in shock, but was speechless for a while.

There were also several other representatives from other major forces in Hedong whose faces changed, and then they revealed an expression of realization, "As expected", it was obvious that they had already made their guesses, but they were only confirmed by Pei Xingchen.

This is actually the reason mentioned before, some information is not something that everyone is qualified to know.

The big families and big forces in Hedong have already established strict information barriers in Hedong over the past hundreds of years. Taking advantage of this information gap, they have firmly maintained their own status and have reaped the wealth of those ignorant people over and over again, allowing them to remain rich and powerful.

The news of the confrontation between the Pei family and Chu Longtu was of course known to everyone in the top circles of Hedong, and it was also the most eye-catching event in Hedong at the moment.

But for people outside the top circle, they don’t know this news at all, because those forces who are qualified to know this news have joined hands to completely block this news.

The reason is naturally because of the fight between Chu Longtu and the Pei family. No matter who wins or loses, both sides will eventually suffer.

Their weakening will naturally be an opportunity for other big families and forces in Hedong to expand their families.

If they could seize the opportunity and take the chance to bite off a few pieces of fat from the Pei family, or obtain some secret recipes for elixirs from Chu Longtu, they could effectively help these big families grow and develop.

Of course, the big families want to keep such a precious opportunity in their own hands and do not want outsiders to participate.

If others knew that with one more person participating, they might get less benefits, and the big families and forces in Hedong would certainly not be happy about that.

So even though no one spoke up for it, those who knew the news tacitly kept it secret and it was not known to outsiders.

For those outside the top circle, the most they know is that the Pei family seems to be in some trouble now, but if they ask where the trouble comes from or who it comes from, they are completely clueless.

So after Pei Xingchen mentioned Chu Longtu's name, everyone present was naturally confused, because they really didn't know him and didn't know him.

Only the middle-aged man who was the assistant to the chairman of the parliament and the representatives of several large families knew of Chu Longtu's existence and responded accordingly.

The master of the middle-aged man is the chairman of the Hedong Council and can be regarded as one of the most powerful crocodiles in the turbulent undercurrent of Hedong. He and the forces behind him are also among the top circles of Hedong. Naturally, they know about the existence of Chu Longtu and are also the people behind the scenes who hope to profit from the conflict between the Pei family and Chu Longtu.

As his assistant, the middle-aged man had been with him for many years and knew a lot of confidential information, so it was not surprising that he knew about Chu Longtu's existence.

Not to mention the other representatives from the big families and forces in Hedong. The families behind them are themselves one of the players on the chessboard of Hedong, so they naturally know about the existence of Chu Longtu.

When they learned that something happened in Tianbo Building and rushed here, they had already guessed whether Chu Longtu had sent people to cause trouble. Now Pei Xingchen's words only confirmed their guess.

Therefore, in this context where the vast majority of people didn't know and only a few knew about it, when Pei Xingchen revealed Chu Longtu's name, he had hoped to attract a lot of indignant curses. However, most people were confused and had no idea of ​​Chu Longtu's existence.

Pei Xingchen looked at the confused crowd, and suddenly realized that not everyone seemed to know about the existence of Chu Longtu. He felt depressed again.

But he soon had an idea. Since he had already mentioned Chu Longtu's name, there was no point in hiding it.

What's more, he is now going to put the blame openly on Chu Longtu. It would be a good thing if no one knew about Chu Longtu's existence. In this way, he can slander Chu Longtu and throw all the dirty water on Chu Longtu.

Anyway, no one knew that Chu Longtu existed, and no one knew what kind of person Chu Longtu was. Everyone had a blank impression of Chu Longtu. This made it easier for Pei Xingchen to make up facts without worrying about anyone becoming suspicious.

Since no one knows Chu Longtu, and no one knows the truth of the matter, what do they have to be confused about?
