676: Chapter 677: Framing the Zhou Family_1 676: Chapter 677: Framing the Zhou Family_1 As the first rays of dawn lit up households everywhere, a bombshell hit the front pages of major newspapers and online portals.
Even television stations were broadcasting it on a loop.
The twelve Directors of the Bihai Club had been arrested by the Bihai court for criminal offences.
What was most terrifying was that overnight, all the security firms, large and small, which had once been active in Blue Sea and caused many people headaches, were razed to the ground.
Organizations operating under the banner of Jianghu were also shut down.
It felt like a dream; everything had happened too quickly for people to process.
By the time they realized it was true, countless individuals burst into cheers.
Some even celebrated specially.
The Bihai Club had gone from being the heroes who bravely fought against foreign monopoly groups to being a cancerous tumor; without its removal, they would never have good days ahead.
The Dragon Slayer had turned into the very dragon it sought to slay.
It was a lack of proper order!
Xiao Chen was here to create that order.
“What are you all talking about?
No idea who made the move!
No idea when it happened!
Not knowing where those twelve are detained!
Whether they’ve been blabbing or not, also no clue!
What do I feed you for?”
At the headquarters of the Bihai Club, Li Shenshi directly poured hot tea over someone responsible for intelligence.
That person stood still, not daring to move or speak.
The event had unfolded too quickly, far too quickly!
They simply hadn’t had time to react.
Moreover, the secrecy had been tight; anyone in the know was either dead or had been locked up.
“Getting angry now is pointless; continue the investigation!”
Fang Wuyong said, “We must find out who dares to make enemies with over eighty families of Blue Sea!”
“What if it’s an Aristocratic Clan?”
Duan De spoke coldly, “Such a massive operation couldn’t be managed by just anyone.
Are you really planning to investigate?”
“No matter who it is, we must investigate.
If it turns out to be an Aristocratic Clan, we’ll accept our ill fate; if not, this vendetta must be avenged!”
Li Shenshi spoke coldly.
He had no choice; if he didn’t find out what was happening, he would find no peace.
Not even knowing the adversary.
How could that be comforting?
“Do you think it could be the Xinmeng Group?”
Bao Peng suddenly spoke up.
“Stop joking, we had the Xinmeng Group so suppressed they could hardly breathe!
They are just one of the beneficiaries of this incident.
There’s no way they could have…”
Li Shenshi dismissed the idea, shaking his head, “Don’t target the wrong focal point.
The Xinmeng Group will still be dealt with, but what’s more important now is to find the true culprit behind this turmoil!”
“What about the Aristocratic Clan?
If you find them, I will help you deal with them!”
The person who had been sitting there silently, wearing a mask, suddenly spoke.
The mask on his face was the symbol of the Hades Organization, as fearsome and hideous as Shura’s.
But, the voice was unmistakably that of a woman.
“Yes, Boss!”
No one knew that the leader of the Bihai Club was a woman.
Nor did anyone know that this woman was affiliated with the Hades Organization.
Even people like Li Shenshi, Duan De, Fang Wuyong, and Bao Peng had to listen to her.
With her in charge, they felt considerably more at ease.
In Huang Jinming’s residence, Xiao Chen’s feet were up on the table, a cigarette in hand, as he talked on the phone.
“They want to investigate?
Let them find out then.
Hasn’t the Zhou Family always been eager for Blue Sea’s market?
Let them take the fall, and remember, make the evidence convincing and leave no loopholes.
I want the Zhou Family to have no room for excuses.
Of course, I expect they won’t even bother to defend themselves.
An Aristocratic Clan wouldn’t regard the Bihai Club as anything significant!”
Xiao Chen said with a laugh.
“Understood, Boss!”
Capital City is indeed the most important place in Dragon Country.
It’s been more than a year since Xiao Chen returned, and his power in Capital City was actually the strongest.
The Jianghu Teahouse of Capital City, the Yama Hall of Capital City, the War God Personal Guards of Capital City!
Any one of them could make the whole world tremble.
After three days of investigation, the Bihai Club finally found some clues.
These pieces of information were obtained through various channels at a great cost; the confidentiality of the other party was exceptionally well-handled.
If it wasn’t for the help of the chairman of the Hades Organization, they might not have been able to find anything at all.
“It’s actually the Zhou Family!”
Li Shenshi’s expression turned ugly.
Among the ten Aristocratic Clans, even the ninth-ranked Zhou Family was not someone they could afford to offend.
They dared not even inquire.
Whether it was true or not, once they asked, they might offend the Zhou Family.
“Should we continue the investigation?”
Duan De sighed and said, “I’ve said before that only an Aristocratic Clan could organize such a scene, but you wouldn’t believe it.
Even if you find out, what can you do?
It will only bring embarrassment!”
The rest also showed helpless expressions.
Nobody wanted to see this outcome.
“Is the information reliable?”
The masked woman asked.
“Reliable, absolutely no mistake!”
The person in charge of intelligence replied.
“But why?”
Fang Wuyong frowned and asked, “Our Bihai Club has never offended the Zhou Family, right?”
“Never offended, but never helped either,” Duan De indifferently said, “The last time Zhou Canghai of the Zhou Family came to Blue Sea, he ended up being tricked, and the project slipped through his fingers.
We had no idea who was behind it.
For the Zhou Family, those who are of no use should be disposed of like garbage.
Do you think they will reason with you?”
“No, there might be another hidden mystery here!”
The masked woman shook her head, “How could anyone snatch that project from the Zhou Family’s hands?
Furthermore, that project is now in the hands of Xinmeng Group!
The Zhou Family, they are playing both sides!”
“What do you mean?”
Fang Wuyong paused, not quite understanding.
“Don’t you see?
A newly established Xinmeng Group, not even a year old, do you think they could have developed so rapidly without the support of an Aristocratic Clan?
I think Xinmeng Group is nothing but a brilliant chess move by the Zhou Family!
They can’t take action directly, because when an Aristocratic Clan moves, it may affect the whole situation!
But they can nurture a Xinmeng Group to conquer and plunder for them!
Have you not wondered how the small Xinmeng Group could remain undefeated in the face of Menghua Corporation’s fierce attacks?
Do you believe they could without an Aristocratic Clan’s support?”
The woman’s words were like a beacon in the darkness, enlightening everyone present.
They had many questions before.
From where did Xiao Chen emerge?
How did the Xiao Family from Jiangnan get so many skilled fighters?
How did Xinmeng Group acquire such a large sum of capital?
Now, it seemed, they understood everything at once!
This was just too devious.
“But last time, Zhou Wen actually tried to move against Jiang Meng, and he ended up crippled.”
Fang Wuyong frowned.
“Just an idiot from a collateral branch, how could he be aware of the Zhou Family’s true strategy?
This is, in fact, where the Zhou Family was most clever.
Had we not spent a great deal of capital and connections, and even utilized the Hades Organization’s power, to investigate that the Zhou Family was behind this, we never would have come to this realization.
The Zhou Family is ruthless and terrifying!”
The masked woman shook her head.
