Chapter 326 Rex's Plot [Requesting Monthly Tickets]

Jin Baosan witnessed Rex appearing at the Black Cat Bar and suspected that his family had gone bankrupt, so he sold himself to pay off his debts.

Meanwhile, a group of debt collectors came to the school office looking for Rex, leading Tian Xin to conclude that something had happened to Rex's family.

Tian Xin then informed Wang Dadong of the news. Combined with Jin Baosan's information, Wang Dadong began to suspect that Rex might really be in trouble.

Kind-hearted Tian Xin, who is devoted to her students, went to the Black Cat Bar and indeed saw Rex working as a waiter. From Rex, she learned that his family had indeed gone bankrupt and owed a huge debt.

The debt collectors came again and beat Rex severely.

Tian Xin called Wang Dadong, Chen Hong, and others to come and help out.

When Chen Hong and the others arrived, they saw Rex, who had been beaten black and blue and looked miserable and pathetic.

As a result, the Rex family's bankruptcy and their subsequent work to pay off debts were exposed.

Chen Hong narrowed his eyes and gave Rex a meaningful look.

This guy's acting skills, pretending to be weak while actually being vulnerable, are really mediocre.

That's only enough to fool simple-minded guys like Wang Dadong and Tian Xin.

Chen Hong immediately realized that there was something wrong with Rex.

Bankruptcy and debt repayment? That's ridiculous.

Anyone with a bit of common sense knows how cunning those big families are.

Even if all the Lei family's companies went bankrupt, the debts wouldn't be attributed to them.

They still eat well and drink well, living a life that ordinary people can hardly imagine.

Moreover, on this small Ryukyu Island, powerful families are intertwined and their relationships are complex, so it is impossible for them to fall.

Even among merchant families, there are a large network of connections; they operate on the principle of controlling the market and even monopolizing it.

Bankruptcy? Bankruptcy is impossible.

Even if they're so bad they go bankrupt, they can still transfer assets and use others to make money.

Only a bunch of ignorant country bumpkins like Wang Dadong could be fooled by Rex's acting skills.

The loyal Wang Dadong not only did not doubt Rex, but also rallied everyone in the class to work and earn money to help Rex pay off his debts and get through the crisis.

Chen Hong rolled his eyes at this, thinking, "What an idiot."

Even if Rex's bankruptcy was fake, that enormous debt is not something a group of students could earn.

Excluding the family business's debts, Rex alone owes Black Cat Hotel 50 yuan.

Wang Dadong also said that he would work to help Rex so that his classmates wouldn't have to rely on family connections or money.

Wang Dadong also wants all his classmates to earn 50 yuan within three days.

Jin Baosan proposed a viable business plan: to have KO champions like Wang Dadong compete in a ring match, then collect admission fees, sell snacks, and have girls like Sha Jie perform pole dancing. This plan was rejected by Wang Dadong with a single punch.

Then the whole class actually went to the construction site to carry bricks and cement, earning money through this honest method.

Unfortunately, this method is clearly a drop in the ocean and it's impossible to repay 50.

Moreover, places like Black Cat Hotel are notorious for loan sharking, with interest compounding and it's incredibly shady.

They never intended for anyone to pay it back; they were pushing people to the brink, squeezing every last drop of money and value out of them.

Wang Dadong wants to lead the whole class to work, Tian Xin wants to sell stocks to raise money, and Wang Yase wants to pawn his luxury watch and ring.

Before they could raise the money, Chen Hong used his double-handed skills to turn several high-ranking police officers into his own people. Then he sent police officers to shut down the Black Cat Hotel and conduct a major crackdown on charges of drug trafficking, loan sharking, and hostage-taking.

This Black Cat Hotel has so many problems; every investigation reveals them.

Thanks to Chen Hong's interference, Class 1-1 didn't have to lose 500,000, and Tian Xin didn't have to lose 300,000, losing all their savings.

This time, unlike before, I didn't foolishly lose 50 yuan and feed it to the gangsters at the Rex Black Cat Hotel.

That's right, the Black Cat Hotel was a scheme orchestrated by Rex, who is the owner of the Black Cat Hotel.

"Chen Hong, how dare you interfere?"

"You wait for me!"

Rex, who was rescued, appeared weak and pitiful on the surface, but in reality, he hated Chen Hong, the troublemaker.

Chen Hong sensed Rex's hostility towards him and gave him a contemptuous yet mysterious smile, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

This smile instinctively sent chills down Rex's spine and made him feel a sense of crisis.

"asshole!"

"How dare you look down on me!"

"That smile... does it mean he's discovered I'm the mastermind?"

Rex felt a little flustered, but he forced himself to calm down and deal with the concern and authority of Wang Dadong and the others.

Because Chen Hong had captured all his men, Rex tried to use his connections to get them released.

But Chen Hong and Wang Yase witnessed this whole scene.

"As expected, Rex is no good person. I never thought he was the real boss behind the Black Cat Hotel."

Wang Yase punched the luxury car indignantly.

"Not only that, if I'm not mistaken, Rex is KO2."

Chen Hong glanced out the car window at Rex, who had failed to get help to rescue him, and chuckled softly.

“It really was him.” Wang Arthur was not surprised at all. He had long suspected that KO2, who had punched him before, was Rex.

The next day, Rex was still acting pitiful in front of the whole class, thanking everyone.

Seeing Rex still putting on a hypocritical act, Chen Hong sneered and said nothing more.

When he's exposed, he'll be in for a world of hurt.

King Arthur, however, disapproved of Rex's hypocrisy and argued with him. Then Rex jumped off a building.

Another self-inflicted injury scheme.

Rex, a man of deep cunning, took the initiative to tell Tian Xin that he wanted to take on the task of creating reading plans for the students.

Sure enough, right after Rex gave his warning, King Arthur came to Tian Xin to explain the truth that Rex was a bad person.

Unfortunately, Tian Xin didn't believe it, but seeing Wang Yase leave indignantly, she still had some doubts and went to the classroom.

Seeing Rex diligently creating study plans for his classmates.

Where Tian Xin couldn't see, Rex's lips curled up slightly.

"I knew you'd be worried and come to check."

Rex once again predicted Tian Xin and Wang Yase's actions.

Wang Yase was unwilling to accept this, so he went to Wang Dadong's house to tell him the truth.

However, Rex once again anticipated Wang Arthur's actions and arrived at Wang Da Dong's house for dinner ahead of time, silencing Wang Arthur once again.

Wang Yase left angrily, thinking that apart from Chen Hong, the only other person in the class who would believe him was probably that fool Jin Baosan.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Jin Baosan appeared, crying.

It turned out that Rex had introduced a doctor who saved Grandma Jinbao's heart condition, which moved him to tears.

Rex once again anticipated King Arthur's thoughts and actions.

Wang Yase was completely at a loss.

Just as King Arthur was about to confide in Ding Xiaoyu, Rex once again blocked King Arthur's last path by giving Ding Xiaoyu an original Chopin record.

Wang Yase was completely isolated.

Only Chen Hong remained as the last person in the know.

Wang Yase could only confide in Chen Hong, who could only comfort him and tell him to calm down and wait for the right opportunity.

Unfortunately, Rex is too insidious.

Unable to find Chen Hong's weakness, he planned to first alienate Wang Yase from everyone and kick him out of the Ultimate Class.

Cut off one arm, then deal with Chen Hong.

Just then, Sister Sha handed her love letter to Wang Dadong to Wang Yase, asking him to pass it on to Wang Dadong and, incidentally, use his Shakespearean expertise to help her increase her chances of a successful confession.

Unexpectedly, Rex stole the love letter, posted it on the bulletin board, causing Sister Sha's death. From then on, he resented King Arthur and broke with him.

They wanted to make Wang Yase less popular in KO One, hoping to alienate him from everyone.

Another bento box was placed on Wang Arthur's table. Wang Arthur, who was already angry, threw the bento box on the spot, scattering it all over the floor.

Unexpectedly, this was Jin Baosan's lunchbox, which his grandmother had made for him after he was discharged from the hospital.

Although Jin Baosan usually acts like a scoundrel, he is actually very filial to his grandmother. In his heart, his grandmother, with whom he depends on each other, holds a very high position.

As a result, Wang Yase and Jin Baosan broke off their relationship.

Rex truly understands everyone's personality; he has everyone under his thumb.

Rex quickly informed King Arthur's men that King Arthur had been beaten by Jin Baosan.

So King Arthur's men went to cause trouble for Jin Baosan and beat him up.

This debt was thus pinned on Wang Yase.

The conflict finally erupted, and Wang Dadong and Ding Xiaoyu demanded that Wang Yase explain himself.

Wang Arthur no longer wanted to explain; under Rex's schemes, it was impossible to explain clearly. If you're a brother, you should believe him unconditionally.

Rex tried to play peacemaker again, but was pushed by Arthur Wang. He then pretended to have an asthma attack and acted pitiful.

When everyone doubted Wang Yase, Chen Hong stepped forward.

"I believe Arthur. Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence that these things have happened one after another?"
Moreover, every single point of contention points directly at Arthur Wang, as if a mastermind is meticulously orchestrating everything from behind the scenes.

Chen Hong gave Rex a meaningful look.

Rex remained completely innocent, his act seemingly flawless.

Ding Xiaoyu narrowed her eyes, seemingly lost in thought, but unsure.

Although Wang Dadong did not believe that Wang Yase would do such bad things, he also did not believe that his childhood friend Rex would do them.

"I believe in Arthur. Arthur is a proud man and would not do such a boring and despicable thing."

Chen Hong loudly supported King Arthur, which deeply moved King Arthur, whose eyes seemed to sparkle when he looked at him.

"That makes some sense. Could someone as proud as King Arthur really have done those things?"

Xiao La and the other students in Ultimate Class also began to have doubts after hearing Chen Hong's words.

"Think about it carefully, everyone. Those despicable things you did before seem like the kind of things only a petty, vindictive person would do, right?"

As Chen Hong spoke, he kept glancing at Rex with a meaningful look in his eyes.

This made Rex appear innocent on the surface, but inwardly he was seething with rage.

"Damn Chen Hong, how dare you ruin my plans! I'll make you pay!"

Soon, Rex went to the music room, took Ding Xiaoyu's sheet music, and even sprayed her with perfume—the same brand Chen Hong used.

As a self-reliant hoodlum, Chen Hong naturally cut his hair into an unconventional style and wore perfume in order to make money in society.

He hasn't been able to change these habits yet.

When Ding Xiaoyu arrived at her music classroom, she discovered that her sheet music was missing.

He arrived at Class 1-1 with a grim expression and asked Chen Hong:
"Chen Hong, did you take my sheet music?"
