Basil Jaak had finished asking his question and gave Black a kick in the butt, intending to let him go when several people surrounded them from a distance.
"Look, it's him, he's the lackey of the crooked developer!" The youth with the Mohican hairstyle, who had just escaped from Basil Jaak's clutches, was shouting. Following him were the local residents.
Seeing the crowd, Black immediately burst into wails: "They're killing someone, they're killing someone, the developer's killed someone..."
You have to admit, Black had a flair for drama; it really was a waste that he hadn't become an actor and won an Oscar.
Basil Jaak sneered at Black: "Shut up! If you keep bawling and fussing like a woman, believe it or not, I'll kick your balls till they burst."
Sure enough, threatened by Basil Jaak like this, Black immediately stopped crying and looked at Basil with teary eyes, totally a picture of misery.
