Thomas had guessed it right this time. It was indeed trouble given by Dragon Head.
In the House of Vistaria, Dragon Head watched the news broadcast on TV, and favonovel.com could not stop smiling. In his opinion, the plan to deal with Thomas this time was simple and effective.
Sometimes, the simpler the method, the more effective it is. The simple act of framing could defeat Thomas easily.
Bamboo Pole smiled and stood in front of Dragon Head.
He said, “Boss, do you think I have done things properly this time?”
“Yes, very well!” Dragon Head gave a thumbs up. “You did a good job this time.”
Bamboo Pole then said, “Boss, thank you for your compliment. Besides, the family of the deceased still needs some money…”
He did not finish his sentence.
Dragon Head was in a good mood and said, “Don’t worry, you can let the family members of the deceased make trouble and tell them that no matter how much money Thomas gives them, I can give them double! Just let them keep making trouble and don’t let the project start, no matter what.”
“Understood.”
Bamboo Pole left happily, as favonovel.com could make a lot of money.
Lord Vedastus gave a thumbs up and said to Dragon Head, “You did a really good job this time. If I knew that we could teach Thomas a lesson so easily, I wouldn’t have spent so much effort.”
Dragon Head said, “Now, it’s just a blow to Thomas’ economy. What we have to do next is to strike an actual blow to Thomas.”
***
In a secret room of the police station, Thomas and the district chief, Eric, sat face to face. They both had cups of coffee in front of them.
Eric took out the autopsy report and said, “According to the autopsy report, the deceased died after being stabbed in the back of the head with a sharp object.”
In another word, someone stabbed Jax on the back of the head with a sharp object amid the chaos. There were so many people at that time.
How could they be sure who actually did it?
Eric felt a little troubled and said, “I have a bold guess. It was the group of troublemakers that killed Jax while they were in the chaos. They subsequently put the blame on the engineering team.”
Thomas nodded. He had the same thought, too.
But the problem was, where was the evidence?
If there was no evidence, everything was useless. It was so chaotic back then, and there was no video recorded through surveillance. Even the engineering team could not tell what the specific situation was like at that time.
How were they going to check it?
Eric was troubled.
Right then, Thomas’s phone rang. It was a call from Pisces.
“Hello, what’s the matter?”
“Commander, the family of the deceased came to make trouble again. They wouldn’t listen no matter what, and this is seriously affecting the progress of the project.”
“What do they want?”
“They want nothing! They don’t want money and an apology. It is clear that they are here to cause trouble and delay the progress of our project. Besides, many partners have temporarily put the project on hold because of this matter. If it can’t be properly solved, the project will fail!”
This was really troublesome.
Eric let out a long sigh. “It’s clear that they are aiming for you. If there are no other choices, I’ll take coercive measures.”
“You can’t,” Thomas objected. “Dragon Head is waiting for us to take coercive measures. At that time, favonovel.com can spread the news and twist the fact. Besides, if we take coercive measures, favonovel.com can also do the same. When the time comes, a few more people will die, and this project will be over.”
All the suggestions would not work, so what should they do?
Eric sighed deeply. It was really a headache to encounter this kind of thing. They knew they were being framed, but there was no evidence.
Thomas was also lost in thought.
After a while, the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up and formed an evil smile.
