Chapter 449
Evil Sword God might have been captured, but the incident was suppressed in the end given his identity . As for the unusual large-scale blackout and the malfunctioning electronic equipment in the area, Songhai city's Electricity Department ultimately took responsibility for it . A notice about the accident was posted the following day which explained that it had happened because of faulty equipment; in the end, only those who had been personally involved knew what had actually happened .
That night, not long after Evil Sword God was detained, Odd Zhuo received two phone calls .
The first was from his old leader, Secretary Dakang .
"Hello, Little Zhuozi . . . "
Odd Zhuo had already gone from being overwhelmed at hearing the old secretary's intimate address in the beginning to being completely used to it .
Odd Zhuo nodded . "Yes, it's me, secretary . "
On the other end of the phone, Secretary Dakang said in a somewhat meaningful tone, "I've always thought since before that you have experts hiding around you . . . Hehe, you've completely exposed yourself when catching this Evil Sword God this time . "
Odd Zhuo's mind went blank when he heard this; if shifu knew that he hadn't taken responsibility for this incident, he would definitely hate him!
"Secretary Dakang, it's not like that . . . "
Odd Zhuo was about to explain when Secretary Dakang's voice came over the phone . "Don't be afraid," he said . As long as you're dedicated to society, I don't care whether you have one expert or two experts around . But for that senior you invited to be able to catch Evil Sword God, his strength is certainly not ordinary . Perhaps he is in no way weaker than me or Old Yi . "
"Secretary, I . . . "
"It's fine, you don't have to explain . I understand you . "
On the other end of the line, Secretary Dakang nodded slightly and said slowly, "Everyone has secrets; no one can live without them . You bring honor to our education field and you are now a role model for all children . I have to thank you for that . . . Later, if you get a call from Old Yi, you can straightaway direct him to me and say that I was the one who invited the senior behind you so that he doesn't start talking behind your back . . . "
" . . . " Listening over the phone, Odd Zhuo suddenly felt a little addled .
Something that had seemed impossible to explain had actually been inexplicably resolved?
"Given Old Yi's character, I'm guessing that once he finds out about this, he'll definitely make the trip to Songhai city, and will even call you . What's more important is that we sort out what we should say first, since Old Yi this person is very shrewd . "
Speaking up to this point, Secretary Dakang couldn't help laughing out loud . "Previously, he, Old Jiang and I made a bet to see who could catch that Chen Nanxuan first . In the end, who would have ever thought that the result would be me winning by default! Little Zhuozi, you've given me face again!"
Odd Zhuo: " . . . "
Secretary Dakang: "Also, you handled the particulars very well this time . You immediately suppressed the media and didn't alert them . It's still better to leave Evil Sword God to Old Yi himself to handle . "
" . . . "
"Little Zhuozi, don't worry . Although there won't be any media coverage on this incident, you will certainly receive plenty of internal commendations . If you are promoted to our Alliance of Ten Thousand Schools in the future and Old Yi is willing to put in a good word for you, that will carry a lot of weight . "
"Very well, secretary . . . "
Odd Zhuo thanked him, hung up the phone, and then couldn't help taking out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe at his sweat .
A man sits at home and responsibility falls from heaven . . .
As it turned out, he had been powerless from the start to decide for himself whether to shoulder this responsibility or not – because it had been decreed by fate, falling from the sky!
. . .
It wasn't long after Secretary Dakang's call that the phone rang once again in Odd Zhuo's staff apartment . It was an unknown number, but Odd Zhuo knew when he saw the call that it was most likely from General Yi .
Actually, he and General Yi had met once before at the combined military training for six schools, but General Yi hadn't been familiar with him at that time .
