Chapter 236 Liar
Just three seconds later, countless bottles of mineral water, cans, fruit cores and other miscellaneous items flew down from the stands on all sides, and a large number of white notes were scattered - all tickets issued by major bookmakers.
"Liars!
"A bunch of bitches, give me back!"
"Shit, this is blatant manipulation of the game!"
"Is this taking us for fools? both are mongrels!"
"Hey, hey, that's too deceitful, isn't it?
"Strongly protest! That NHSAA referee, are they stupid? They are working together to cheat, cheat!"
"Bastard, if the NHSAA tournament committee doesn't give us an explanation today, I'm going to take a gun and slaughter them tomorrow. β
"They're just cheating out of money! Hey, is anyone going with me to complain to the Gambling Supervision Commission?"
"Yes, we can also go to the Gambling Supervision Commission! We can join forces to get some lawyers, we can't let them be so unscrupulous!"
As the stands on all sides boiled over the result of Kadio Rhodes' defeat, Abraham Archibald in Box Nine staggered a few steps and sat back in his seat.
He was a little incredulous at first, then clenched his fists and looked hideous.
"Jacks, what about the Destiny Stones?"
"I don't know!" Cressy Jakes' face was solemn, "But obviously this gem can't help Kadio Rhodes reverse his fate." We miscalculated, this lucky Andre, he probably has the ability to suppress spirits. The remnants of the Minotaur had harmed him. β
"I don't care about that! I just know that he lost and that you broke the agreement we made, Jack!"
Abraham's eyes were red, as if he were a defeated bull: "Correspondingly, I will also retract my promise to you!"
"Understood. β
Cressy Jakes sighed, "It's my fault, but Mr. Abraham, I suggest you act as soon as possible." I suspect that those bookmakers will later join forces to put pressure on the NHSAA's Tournament Committee to verify and assess the fairness of the event, which will help them deal with the Gambling Supervision Commission. β
"Verification?"
Abraham couldn't help frowning: "Didn't you promise me that the seven Cretan Bloodstones on Kadio Rhodes can handle any investigation?"
"That was before. β
Cressy Jakes's figure has disappeared from the glass window, but his voice is still left in the box: "The problem is that Andre, he has the ability to suppress the soul body, and it is likely to cause rejection between Cardio Rhodes himself and the remnant soul of Minotaurs. That's not good, Mr. Abraham. The possibility of him being found to use forbidden techniques is 100%!"
Hearing this, Abraham Archibald was already in a cold sweat. He knew that if Kadio Rhodes was found to be in trouble, then their Arcadis Sporting Goods Company would face catastrophic consequences.
- The immediate measures are either to stop the NHSAA tournament committee or to find a way to cut ties with Kadio Rhodes.
At the same time, in box 45, Jennifer Wildenstein sighed softly and stood up from her seat: "Oliver, you go to the Cardinals Club now to issue a commission, I need to hire two quasi-legends on a three-year contract! β
"Yes, I'll go to the Cardinals later. β
Oliver's face was worried: "But miss, I must remind you that the financial pressure we are facing now is very heavy. β
"How could I not know? We've spread out the stall so big that if we're not careful, the funds may break. β
Jennifer sighed softly, "But if I don't do this, maybe in a few months, those guys will be kicked out of the Wildenstein group." There is a saying in the East called 'drink a donkey to quench your thirst', and I am in such a state now. If you don't drink this bottle of poison, you may lose it now, and after drinking it, you can live for at least two or three months. We've got to buy time, Oliver. β
Oliver wanted to stop talking when he heard this, but finally retracted the words that came to his lips and smiled bitterly: "I hope that in the next few months, there will be a turnaround." β
"Don't worry, Oliver, if I really can't help it, I will sell my pioneering base in the dark world, and I won't let myself fall into the field of complete bankruptcy. β
At this time, Jennifer glanced out of the glass window again, and Li Mochen, who was walking down from the ring, said: "After you go to the Cardinal Club to issue a commission, you will ask another clever magic hunter to pay attention to Christian Wildenstein's movements." I don't want to know what he's doing, but at least I have to know where he isβ"

At the same time, in box three, Alec Bruder was talking on the phone: "Yes, we at Penguin Betting want a third party to intervene, and if possible, it is best to invite professional media professionals to supervise the whole process." Yes, it's a hassle. But it's also good for the NHSAA tournament committee to maintain its credibility and prestige, isn't it? I've foreseen tomorrow's media storm, and if we don't do a thorough and thoughtful investigation, everyone will be in trouble. β
"The whole process is indeed somewhat unexpected, even unbelievable. But I promise you that we didn't do anything, we didn't intervene in this game, and we can't afford this notoriety. You can understand it? That's great. I'll treat you to coffee another dayβ"
When Alec hung up, he saw Dwight Payton carrying a glass of Bordeaux wine to him.
Alec immediately smiled, took the glass from Dwight's hand, and raised it high: "Let's toast! for lucky Andre, and for Penguin Betting and Nesson Sports Group." β
In the entire box, all the employees of the Penguin Gaming Company and Nathan responded at the same time, making an earth-shattering noise. And Dwight Payton smiled wryly: "There is no need to make such a big fanfare Alec, I think the next step will be the inquiry and investigation of the Gambling Supervision Commission, let's keep a low profile, okay?"
The bookmaker and the people of the Naison Sports Group are mixed up, which is easy to trigger everyone's association.
"It was because we saw that that we opened the window and there was a video recording of the whole thing, didn't we? I think the Gambling Supervision Commission will at best issue a fine to us in the name of 'deliberately guiding public opinion'. β
Alec smiled indifferently: "Be happy, Dwight, you guys are making a lot of money this time, I think next week's sales of your Nathan Sports Group will definitely start at one billion!"
"I hope so, but this is still dwarfed by the profits of your penguin betting, and you have made at least 1.3 billion gold dong this time, haven't you? The vast majority of them are pure profits. β
Dwight Payton smiled and drank the red wine in his glass: "What's more, I have a headache now." β
"Headache?"
Alec Bruder was stunned at first, then smiled knowingly: "yes, Dwight, it's too fast. Andre is indeed very strong, and few of the high school students can survive a round in front of him. But in this way, it will be too unfriendly to those TV stations and viewers who broadcast the game. You've got to convince him, Dwight, he's going to have to fight people for at least a few dozen rounds so that he can be seen, and that's good for everyone, isn't it?
But after Dwight heard this, he couldn't help but look sideways at Alec: "You guy, what bad idea are you playing again, right?"
He knew that Li Mochen's opponent in the quarterfinals was called Brude, a magical swordsman who had been defeated by James Lancet in about thirty rounds half a year ago.
