Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 963: Chapter 962: The Plan

”You still pretending?” Zhao Jun shouted angrily, ”He was beaten bloody by you guys and sent to the hospital, and you’re still playing dumb?”

”Fuck that, I admit what I’ve done, but don’t you dare try to pin shit on me that I didn’t do!” Hei Ma snapped back, ”I haven’t seen Lin Dawei for days, when did I beat him?”

”You still won’t admit it?” Zhao Jun yelled, ”Forty minutes ago, on the back street, stop fucking pretending you don’t know!”

”Forty minutes ago? Back street?” Hei Ma cursed, ”Are you fucking sick? Forty minutes ago, I was at the Number 7 Internet Cafe, just caught your girlfriend there, what back street? Can I be in two places at once?”

Zhao Jun was baffled, what is this situation?

”Number 7 Internet Cafe?” Zhao Jun stared at Hei Ma, ”You still trying to fool me? My girlfriend saw with her own eyes you beating Lin Dawei on the back street!”

”Your girlfriend saw with her own eyes? She was at the Number 7 Internet Cafe at the time, and she still saw it with her own eyes? Which eye did she see it with, her third eye?” Hei Ma cursed angrily.

”Watch your fucking mouth!” Zhao Jun shouted.

”I’d love to chop you into pieces, so fuck your manners!” Hei Ma roared, ”If you don’t believe me, go check at the Number 7 Internet Cafe yourself, ask the network administrator or just pull up the surveillance footage. I was there for half an hour just to find that bitch, how could I have the time to go to the back street? Or ask Lin Dawei himself, see if I actually hit him!”

Zhao Jun was stunned; Hei Ma’s confident talk suggested he wasn’t lying. So, what exactly is going on?

At this moment, the chairman furrowed his brows and spoke gravely, ”Zhao Jun, do you have anything else to say?”

”But... this is really what my girlfriend said...” Zhao Jun turned to Xiao Qi, anxiously saying, ”Xiao Qi, did... did you actually see them beating Lin Dawei on the back street?”

”Huh?” Xiao Qi looked confused, ”What... when was this?”

This caused an uproar in the room, and Hei Ma too widened his eyes, angrily saying, ”Zhao Jun, got nothing to say now, huh? Even your own girl doesn’t know about it, who are you trying to fool?”

”Just now, when you called me!” Zhao Jun said urgently, ”You said it when you called me!”

”I called you?” Xiao Qi looked utterly bewildered, ”No, I was at the internet cafe online, then they dragged me over here, I didn’t see Lin Dawei!”

Zhao Jun was flabbergasted, he couldn’t understand why the situation was like this.

At this moment, the chairman put down his phone and spoke sternly, ”Zhao Jun, I just called and checked, Hei Ma was indeed at the internet cafe, and the network manager there can testify. Now, tell me, what the hell is going on? We’re all from the Northern Three Provinces, Hei Ma hasn’t done you any harm, why go so hard on him?”

Zhao Jun was tongue-tied, unsure how to respond. With all these pieces of evidence laid out, it seemed Hei Ma truly hadn’t hit Lin Dawei. But then, what exactly happened?

Zhao Jun knew, with such a severe beating that had even alerted the chairman himself, if he didn’t have a good reason, he would lose his credibility in the Northern Three Provinces, and might even be expelled.

It’s normal for everyone to have conflicts, but generally not to a fatal extent; things shouldn’t have escalated this much. With this situation blown out of proportion and with no justification on his side, Zhao Jun was really in trouble.

”This... this really was the call Xiao Qi made to me...” Zhao Jun insisted anxiously, ”I still have the call log here...”

Zhao Jun pulled out his phone, pointing at a strange number, saying, ”Look, this is it, Xiao Qi called me from this number just now, she said her own phone was out of power...”

Zhao Jun’s statement stopped abruptly, his eyes widening as he stared at Xiao Qi, his mind suddenly in disarray. He realized that this whole thing, everything, seemed to be just based on the word of Xiao Qi and her friends.

Before Zhao Jun could finish, Xiao Qi cut him off directly, shaking her head, ”My phone’s fully charged, how could it be out of power? I didn’t use anyone else’s phone!”

The chairman’s frown deepened, his look of dissatisfaction at Zhao Jun evident. With how things had unfolded, it was clear that this was all stirred up by Zhao Jun alone.

”Xiao Qi, how could you do this...” Zhao Jun exclaimed, sweating profusely, ”I... I did this for you, I brought people to fight for you... how could you do this?”

”Don’t make it sound so nice,” Xiao Qi waved it off, ”Was it really for me, or for you? You had a grudge against Hei Ma and kept venting to me, insisting we had to take him down no matter what. I saw you were upset, so I brought some guys to take out Hei Ma’s sister last night. For your sake, I ended up captured by Hei Ma’s people and nearly died here, and now you’re trying to pin it on me? Zhao Jun, I really misjudged you, I never thought you were this kind of person!”

”What?” Zhao Jun was staggered, Xiao Qi’s words made it seem like everything was his fault.

Hei Ma was furious, shouting, ”Zhao Jun, you son of a bitch, so it was you all along!”

As Hei Ma was about to rush at Zhao Jun, the chairman quickly intervened. Frowning, he looked at Zhao Jun, ”Zhao Jun, how do you explain this?”

”I... I...” Zhao Jun was at a loss for words.

Hei Ma roared fiercely, ”Zhao Jun, you son of a bitch, listen to me. My sister is still in the hospital, we don’t yet know her condition. But let me tell you, if anything happens to her, I will fucking kill you!”

At this point, Zhao Jun could no longer be angry; the situation had completely spiraled out of control. He used to be very popular among the people, therefore, everyone trusted him. Now, with this incident, not to mention the chairman and others, even his own classmates thought he went too far.

”Zhao Jun, you truly disappoint me,” the chairman sighed deeply, speaking solemnly, ”I thought you could be like your brother, gain everyone’s support, and perhaps become the next chairman after I step down. But unexpected, you can’t see the bigger picture, acting this way. Ah, I was wrong about you. You have to take full responsibility for this incident. From now on, you are no longer a member of our Union of the Northern Three Provinces!”

”What?” Zhao Jun panicked, this was the most vital identity; without this, he would lose the protection of the biggest power.
