Chapter 160: Someone is dead

"I said, boy, I'm going to blow you up. Tonight, I am your God. ”

At the end of the game, Michael Jordan rushed to Zhou Quan's side and yelled at him in an almost roaring tone.

"Smack!"

Zhou Quan went up and pushed Jordan away, and squirted back: "Idiot, the game is over, remember, now it's off the court, do you want to provoke me again?" ”

"Shh

Seeing Zhou Quan do it, the United Center instantly sounded booing and swept through the stadium like a hurricane.

"Shet!"

With a snort, Jordan turned around decisively and left.

Zhou Quan shouted from behind: "Old boy, remember, next time you want to pretend to be in front of me, just before the end of the game." ”

On the TNT commentary seat, Ringer Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Fortunately, Michael took the overall situation into account and did not make a move, and the conflict did not happen." ”

"Hehe......"

Robert Giddah couldn't help but laugh.

Ringer Wilson said a little embarrassed: "Robert, be serious, the live broadcast is not over yet, and tens of millions of people are still watching." ”

Robert Gidda nodded, couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, okay, let's talk about Jordan's data first, which takes into account the overall situation." ”

Ringer Wilson glared at his partner and laughed as well.

Robert Giddah took the statistical table handed over by his assistant, looked at it and said: "Jordan played the whole game in this game, and the same is true of Iron Fist, when the difference in the final quarter widened to 20 points, they didn't end the game." ”

Ringer Wilson added: "Iron Fist didn't go down, it means the Pistons didn't throw in the towel, and of course Michael won't go out. ”

Nodding, Robert Giddah said: "Jordan shot 16-of-34 from the field, shooting 47%, which is not as efficient as his overall efficiency in this playoffs."

Speaking of which, from the third quarter onwards, the offensive Iron Fist defended Jordan with all his might, reducing some of his efficiency, and his offensive efficiency in the second half slipped by at least ten percentage points compared to the first half.

There was also a three-pointer, plus 9 of 10 free throws, Jordan scored 42 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals, 1 block, 3 turnovers and 3 fouls. ”

Ringer Wilson continued: "Iron Fist shot 10 of 29 in this game, the Pistons had no one to attack in the second half, the Assassins played a wave in the third quarter, and then the body couldn't hold on, he shot a lot, shot 34.5%, plus 6 of 7 free throws, and two three-pointers, got 28 points, 5 rebounds, 8 assists, 5 steals, 5 turnovers and 4 fouls. ”

Robert Giddah said: "As the core of the team, Jordan's performance is certainly unparalleled, and the performance of Iron Fist is actually remarkable.

As a rookie, he was even caught by the Bulls from the outside line in the third minute of the first quarter today, which is a qualification for him. ”

Ringer Wilson nodded: "The 34.5% shooting rate is a bit lower, but this is played under Michael's frontal defense and pinch shots, as a rookie, it is really acceptable, we can't expect every rookie to be as talented as a magician." ”

Robert Giddah smiled and said, "But Iron Fist can lead the team to the Eastern Conference finals, and can also tie the Bulls 2-2 in the first four series, his strength and potential, as well as his leadership of the team, are worthy of our attention."

Now that the Pistons have officially pushed him to the top of the team, and he has become the real boss of this team, I am also looking forward to how the Pistons management, the new general manager Troy Weaver, will build a new roster around him.

At present, this team is actually old, not worthy of Iron Fist, they can't keep up with the growth of Iron Fist, and reconstruction is inevitable. ”

"Iron Fist, I'll have time to go back to UCLA."

"Of course."

At the scene, Zhou Quan and Abdul-Jabbar said a few words, said goodbye to the Pistons fans with his teammates, and then left the court with Catherine.

When entering the players' tunnel, the Japanese reporter named Kobayashi Inoshita suddenly rushed to Zhou Quan's side from the side and pushed him, Catherine was almost knocked down, and then shouted at him: "Hey, Shina, you lost to the great MJ ......"

Hearing the word Zhina, Zhou Quan's eyes turned red all of a sudden, calm down, get away, no need now, he let go of Catherine's hand, it was a straight punch.

"Bang!"

In the fist in the nose, the blood appeared instantly, but Xiao Lin Inoshi, who didn't finish speaking, didn't say a word, and directly flipped backwards and fell to the ground.

"Oh!"

The people around exclaimed.

Troy Weaver reacted quickly, immediately went up to block Zhou Quan, and shouted at several security personnel of the Pistons: "Hurry up, this damn guy is attacking Iron Fist." ”

"Hurry up, hurry up, protect Iron Fist!"

"Hold him, he still wants to do it."

Several security personnel were stunned at first, and then immediately reacted, rushed up, and pressed Kobayashi Inoshita, who had already been knocked out with a punch, to the floor.

After being messed up by a few security guards, Kobayashi woke up and began to struggle.

A security guard immediately knelt on his knees and knelt on Kobayashi's body, and several other people assisted him and pressed him down.

"Let's go, you go back to the locker room first, leave it to me here, and I'll hand him over to the police." Troy Weaver pushed Zhou Quan and urged repeatedly.

Zhou Quan nodded, and when he was about to leave, Weaver suddenly grabbed him and asked in his ear: "Zhou, this is a Japanese, how do you want to get him?" ”

Zhou Quan blinked, I want to kill him, you can do it too?

He thought about it for a while, but he couldn't tell the truth, so he said ambiguously: "What can I do?" I can't do anything illegal. ”

"Okay, I know what to do."

Troy Weaver looked like I understood, and motioned for Zhou Quan to go first.

Although he worked for the Pistons for many years, McCloskey recommended him again, and the boss did the same, he still needs Zhou Quan's support.

Zhou Quan's status in the Pistons is not comparable to the previous Isaiah Thomas and Ranbill, Thomas is just the core of the court, and Ranbier is just the leader of the locker room, but Zhou Quan is a combination of the status of the two, the real team boss, without Zhou Quan's support, it is difficult for him to control this team.

If Zhou Quan's influence on the Pistons is still weaker now, it is that his qualifications and strength have not reached that height, as long as his strength continues to improve and accumulate more qualifications, his influence on the team will continue to increase, and it is difficult for him to work without Zhou Quan's support.

He knew that Zhou Quan hated the Japanese, and now he had a chance.

"Be careful, don't let him run away, wait until the police come." He shouted at a few security guards.

"Don't worry, Mr. Weaver, we won't let him up." The security guard who knelt on Kobayashi's body assured.

The scene was very crowded, and the lights were dim, and no one noticed that Kobayashi was twitching unconsciously.

Zhou Quan first arranged for Catherine to leave the United Center, go back to the hotel with his wife, and then return to the locker room with his teammates.

"It's a bit bad!"

By this time, Troy was already sweating on his head in the players' tunnel, because someone finally found out that the Japanese man was dead.

He just wanted to teach this Japanese a lesson, and threw him to the police station for a few days, but he didn't expect to be killed directly.

By this time, the Bulls had passed, no one else had passed, and there was only him and a few of his security guards on the scene, as well as a corpse.

He forcibly calmed down, and immediately said to several panicked security personnel: "Listen, it's this guy attacking Iron Fist, you see, he even shouted the great MJ ......"

"Yes, yes, it was he who suddenly rushed over and attacked Iron Fist, and we all saw it."

"Mr. Weaver, I saw it very clearly and heard him, and he was probably an extreme Michael Jordan fan."

Several security personnel hurriedly shouted.

Weaver nodded: "This is very clear, Iron Fist is only self-defense, he has no fault and will not bear any responsibility."

And your actions are also out of the duty of the security personnel, and they need to control him, and his death was an accident.

Understand, you won't have any responsibility, it's just an accident, and the team will help you fight this lawsuit, understand? ”

"Mr. Weaver, am I not going to jail?" The security guard who was kneeling on Kobayashi's body hurriedly asked.

Weaver smiled, "No, I promise." ”

After pacifying the security personnel, he immediately had McCloskey and Chuck Daley called.

He had to communicate about this first, because there were police outside the joint center, and as long as he called the police, the police would arrive immediately.

Chuck Daly was about to wrap up the game when McCloskey interrupted him by pushing the door in and called him out.

When Zhou Quan came out of the shower, only their players were left in the locker room, and all the management and coaches were gone.

"What about them?"

The press conference was about to begin, and he asked casually as he dressed.

"They all went out just now, as if something urgent had happened."

Rodman was dangling there in a pair of pants and said when he heard it.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the door to the locker room was suddenly pushed open, and McCloskey hurried in with a serious expression, followed by Chuck Daley.

Chuck Daly closed the door with a backhand, and McClos said, "Everyone, get ready, there will be a police officer coming over soon to find out what happened in the players' tunnel just now." ”

“OK。”

Zhou Quan and the others all nodded.

McCloskey said again: "Listen, something happened just now, and the Japanese died." ”

"What?"

Zhou Quan was stunned, Troy Weaver was so powerful?

He wasn't too worried, because he wasn't the one who killed him.

Rodman: They are also confused, how can they kill people?

At this time, Chuck Daley said: "Zhou, it can be very clear, his death has nothing to do with you. ”

Zhou Quan nodded.

McCloskey admonished, "Zhou, it was the Japanese who attacked you, he was a fan of Michael Jordan, and he shouted great MJ, right?" If you don't want to talk about anything else later, just tell this paragraph, and leave everything else to the lawyer. ”

"Got it." Zhou Quan nodded hurriedly.

McCloskey said to the others: "You also remember, the team and the league will come forward, you just need to tell the police what you hear and see, don't talk nonsense, understand?" ”

"Understood." Everyone said.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door outside, and Chuck Dalilah opened the door, and several Chicago police officers stood outside.

In New York, Stern regretted it again, he regretted not going to Chicago.

"What is the cause of death?" He asked, grabbing the phone.

Hawk Houston, Stern's special assistant, reported on the other end of the phone: "An autopsy is required, most likely death by asphyxiation."

But from what I know now, it is that the Japanese man suddenly rushed out and tried to attack Zhou Quan and his girlfriend, and then was punched by Zhou Quan.

After he was knocked down by Zhou Quan, he was held down by several security personnel of the Pistons, and there was resistance at that time, and there were security guards who pressed his body, and finally he died somehow.

From the information obtained, it can be determined that when Zhou Quan left, the Japanese must not have died, and many people at that time can prove this. ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "That Japanese man also said a sentence at that time, mentioning Michael, and he shouted the great MJ. ”

"God, is he an extreme fanatic fan of Michael?"

Stern's brow furrowed for a moment, because it was very likely, and he immediately said, "You rush to Chicago immediately, and I will arrange a private jet for you."

Keep in mind that neither Zhou Quan, nor Michael Jordan, nor any other player can be brought into the police station, and they must not affect the East Finals.

Also, I'm going to get in touch with the Bulls right away and get them to come out and influence the police. ”

Outside the locker room, Zhou Quan dealt with the police, telling the truth what he knew, McCloskey and Chuck Daley were on his side, and even if the Chicago police had the intention of targeting him, they couldn't find a chance.

By this time, Stern had already spoken to Bulls owner Jerry Rainsdorf.

"Mr. Rainsdorf, try to downplay this matter through your and the Bulls' influence, it's very important for you and the league."

"Don't worry, Mr. Stern, I know how to handle this."

Rainsdorf briefly communicated with Stern and began to contact the police.

The league is very supportive of the Bulls, maybe Stern is very supportive of Jordan, and the league has done a lot when Jordan has had two PR crises this year, so today he also needs to support the league and help the league solve this matter.

Besides, if the Pistons have problems because of this, it will not be good for the entire league, and it will also affect the interests of the Bulls.

As for the Pistons and Zhou Quan, although they are the sworn enemies of the Bulls, he is not a player, he is a businessman, and he does not have that much hatred for the Pistons and Zhou Quan.

Moreover, although this matter has something to do with Iron Fist, he is the one who was attacked, and it has nothing to do with the death of the Japanese.

As for the Japanese who died, he didn't care at all.

"Rogge, something happened ......"

Zhou Quan informed Philip of the matter and told him what had happened.

Philip was startled at first, then immediately calmed down, and admonished: "Zhou, as long as it wasn't killed by your punch, there would be no problem."

And it was he who first moved on you and Catherine, it was he who tried to attack you, you just fought back in self-defense, not to mention that you didn't kill him, even if you killed him, we just need to hire a few good lawyers, a Japanese, even if we fight this lawsuit in Japan, we can't lose.

You remember, neither the team nor the league will let this get worse. Even the Bulls won't target you because of this matter, because it's a big deal and it's not good for them. ”

hung up the phone, at this time Troy Weaver returned to the locker room, Zhou Quan hurriedly pulled him out of the locker room, came to a secluded corner, and whispered: "Troy, what's the matter?" ”

Weaver shrugged helplessly and said, "Accident, an accident." ”

Zhou Quan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's just an accident, I thought you were ......" Speaking of this, he didn't say anything further.

"Are you crazy for me?" Weaver hurriedly shook his head.

Where did he dare to admit that it was deliberate, this favor would not dare to be sold, if he did, the handle would fall into Zhou Quan's hands, what would he do in the future?

The management did not arrange for Zhou Quan to attend the press conference, stayed in the locker room, and then after the press conference, they left the United Center together and returned to the hotel.

Jordan's side, in a small room next to the locker room, was also questioned by the police.

"The deceased is my fan?"

He was a little angry and got up from his chair with a piston to kill one of his fans? Has the Bad Boy Legion grown into a horror team?

"In the players' tunnel, a Japanese man attacked Zhou Quan and his girlfriend, and many people saw him rushing up and assaulting Zhou Quan and his girlfriend, and they also heard the Japanese man chanting 'Great MJ'," the police said.

There are indications that that Japanese guy might be an avid fan of yours, so we need to know a few things now, including whether you know him or not. ”

"What?"

As soon as Jordan heard that he was Japanese, he immediately sat back, shook his head and said, "Of course I don't know him, it has nothing to do with me." Do you still have questions, no I'm going to take a shower. ”

Of course, the Chicago police couldn't embarrass Jordan, and immediately nodded: "As long as you don't know him, I have no problem." ”

Speaking of this, he took out a small notebook and a prepared pen, handed it to Jordan, and said with a smile on his face: "MJ, can you sign for me?" ”

"Of course."

Jordan took the pen and paper, brushed it a few times, and wrote his name on it.

When he handed it back, he suddenly asked, "Does this have anything to do with Iron Fist?" ”

The policeman was stunned, shook his head and said: "It was the Japanese who attacked Iron Fist first, many people saw it at that time, Iron Fist knocked down that person and left, and the Japanese was still alive when he left, this is very clear, the security personnel of the piston team have already made a record, so this matter has something to do with Iron Fist, but it has little to do with it." ”

Jordan shrugged, he was just curious.
