It could only be said that the guy didn't know what was good for him and had caused today's disaster for his own sake.
From a certain point of view, I definitely had an undeniable responsibility. On the contrary, the Zhong family was the unlucky one. I had thought that Zhong Yuchen would be able to become the second me, but I didn't expect such bad news.
Nearly a hundred people in the Zhong family were implicated. Even some distant relatives who didn't interact often couldn't escape the blame. In just one night, they disappeared without a trace.
Apparently, they were taken to a secret place for interrogation. Every move of Zhong Yuchen's had become a valuable clue!
As one of the people involved, Curator Du was naturally informed of the situation. He even knew a lot about the movements in Chu Zhou City. I had to admit that Curator Du's intelligence network in Nan Yun was quite convenient.
He was frightened because the Zhong family in Chu Zhou City had been taken away. Some things could easily be linked to me as long as he thought about it. After all, whether it was the counterattack in the Zhao Martial Arts Club or the battle in Kun City, it didn't make sense. Moreover, I was so conspicuous that I was the prime suspect.
"Xiao Zhuang, I always feel that we have to prepare for the worst at any time. We can't just leave it to fate. What do you think?" Curator Du's face was solemn. I had never seen him this serious before.
"Yes." I nodded in agreement.
I had been through a lot of ups and downs along the way. My life had been hanging by a thread several times, but I had been lucky enough to turn the situation around. However, luck was always limited.
"The Zhong family is the best example. Now that the higher-ups are handling this matter with unprecedented intensity, it's enough to show that the situation is serious. If the matter is exposed, many things will be hard to say … You should understand what I'm saying, right?" Curator Du said slowly.
"I understand."
"It's not that I'm trying to scare you, but apart from the enemies you've offended in Jingdu, there's another hidden danger, which is the Muto Group and even the Emperor of Nihon!
You should know that in Japan, the Emperor's position is equivalent to that of the head of state. According to the information I received, Yamamoto Ryuji's sister is the Emperor's concubine, and she is very favored. When Yamamoto Ryuji committed suicide in Hua Xia, his sister cried, threw a tantrum, and threatened to hang herself, causing quite a commotion. Although the Emperor pretended to be deaf and mute, we have to be on guard. From their standpoint, they would definitely be eager to push you into the abyss! "
I felt a chill in my heart. So, Yamamoto Ryuji was also a relative of the Japanese Emperor. It seemed that even Yamamoto Ryuji didn't know about this. It wasn't strange. Since the Emperor's position was as high as the Emperor's, his concubine couldn't be too high-profile. It was likely that after Yamamoto Ryuji's accident, his father had complained to his sister. That was why his sister had revealed her identity to stabilize the Muto Group's position.
"Director Du, do you have any good suggestions?"
My heart was in a mess. If this matter wasn't related to the Fire of Karma realm, the higher-ups wouldn't have been so sensitive.
Even the mysterious Dragon Group had to report to other martial arts sects. It was clear how much pressure they were under. From Director Du's tone, it seemed that the relationship between me and the Blood Demon would soon be known by everyone. It made me worried.
"Now, you have two choices. You can either come clean and negotiate with the person in charge of the Dragon Group, or you can escape from Hua Xia. Or you can just relax and continue to wait," Director Du said.
"Ah …" My face stiffened. "If I escape from Hua Xia, wouldn't it be the same as confirming my crime?"
"It can't be helped. If we continue to wait, they will be able to find out the truth in less than three to five days because there are too many unexplainable things about you …" Director Du sighed. Actually, he had already contacted Grandmaster Chen before this. The two of them thought about it carefully before deciding to talk to me. They felt that rather than 'sitting and waiting for death', it was better to take the initiative in their own hands.
According to what he said, the only path left was to come clean. My mood instantly became extremely gloomy. Originally, I wanted to return to Nan Yun as promised, but before I could enjoy my blissful sexual life, something like this happened. Now, I had to face the difficult decision of carrying countless curses on my back.
Could it be that I had used up all my good points and was going to be unlucky next?!
If I knew it would be like this, I would have stayed in Beijing and asked Director Du to take some time to send my wife and the others over. That way, I would be able to avoid the pain of lovesickness and avoid this disaster.
However, there was no medicine for regret in this world. Since things had already reached this point, I could only take the initiative to take responsibility. Previously, they had been helping me solve my problems, so it was time for me to repay their kindness.
Originally, I didn't have much to do with them, but Grandmaster Chen and Director Du tolerated and protected me. If this matter were to be exposed, not only would I be blamed, but they would also be blamed. Even Guo Wei Martial Arts School and Sky Eagle Martial Arts School might change owners or close down.
Director Du didn't make it clear, but he gave me enough power. I was sure that even if I chose the latter, he wouldn't say anything and would silently support me.
"Okay, I'll turn myself in," I took a deep breath and said solemnly.
This simple sentence exhausted all my strength. This also meant that all the glory and glory that I once had would be far away from me. I might even go from being famous to being infamous for thousands of years …
Seeing my slightly dejected expression, Director Du couldn't help but say, "Xiao Zhuang, I'm not asking you to turn yourself in. Let's first talk to the person in charge of the Dragon Group. If we can think of a way to kill the Blood Demon, then everything will be fine. Anyway, the impact of this matter is too bad, so it's impossible for it to be made public. Don't worry about this!"
"Okay, then let's talk first and see how to deal with it. I will unconditionally accept any form of punishment." I directly expressed my attitude, full of regret and self-blame.
