Mr. Shaler, I like students' money the most.

Caesars Bank had to urgently change the savings terms, restricting Kivotos citizens to only be able to withdraw no more than 5 per day, and constantly raising the savings interest rate.

However, the more Caesars Group tried to appease the people, the more panicked and dissatisfied the people who came to run the bank became, and a crisis of trust arose.

The news that they were going to go bankrupt and that we could no longer withdraw our money was overwhelming.

This crisis was even reflected in the stock price of Caesars Group. In just ten minutes that day, the market value of Caesars Group evaporated by 5000 billion.

Caesars Group, as the largest business group in Kivotos, has financial services as its core business. Two-thirds of Caesars Group's revenue comes from Caesars Bank, and Caesars Bank's assets account for 70% of Caesars Group's total assets.

If the bank goes bankrupt due to a bank run, the entire Caesars Group business empire will be destroyed due to the evaporation of funds.

Heifu sat in his seat, holding the phone blankly, letting the director of Caesar Group yell frantically on the other end of the line.

"Mr. Black Suit, it's over. It's all over. In just three minutes, the stock market value of our Caesars Group evaporated by 500 billion. The financial market has begun to lose trust in us, and the reserves in the bank vault are getting less and less. We expect our withdrawal business to last another ten minutes. After ten minutes, we will not be able to meet our customers' withdrawal business and will go bankrupt due to a broken capital chain."

Chapter 25 Nothing Happened (Part 5)

The expression on Heifu's face at this moment was quite interesting, with anger, pain, regret, and fear, a mixture of emotions.

Heifu is very sober.

The Caesar Group is the source of funds for the Digital Secret Society. If something happens to the Caesar Group, the Digital Secret Society's funding chain will be broken, and then my position and prestige as the head of the Digital Secret Society will be shaken. There is even a possibility that I will be stabbed in the back by those ungrateful people who can't wait to take over.

The reason why others recognize you as the boss is because you can bring tangible benefits to everyone. However, if you, as the boss, cause everyone to lose benefits, then there will definitely be a better boss to replace you.

The weak point of the black server is the funding chain of the Digital Secret Society.

Why is Heifu the boss of the Shumi Society? It is because he can bring a steady stream of financial support to the Shumi Society through the Caesar Group, supporting everyone in the Shumi Society to realize their ideals and life values.

And if everyone's ideals and upward path are blocked,

The black suit is no longer the boss, but an enemy that needs to be pushed down by everyone and eliminated as soon as possible.

Damn it, this time I was really hit in the weak spot!

Heifu whispered in his heart.

Teacher Shaler looked at Heifu mercilessly, and then said something ironic to Heifu.

"Ah, how does that saying go? Oh, time is money. Black Suit, you don't have much time left. You are like a grasshopper whose hind legs are caught. If I want, I can easily crush you to death with my fingers! I will give you ten minutes to think and accept my surrender terms."

Mr. Shale directly took advantage of the situation and used a decisive move to directly ride on the black-suited man's face with a flying dragon, riding on his face and bullying him.

As for whether it would be a bit too reckless, Mr. Shaler didn't care at all.

Since you, Heifu, treat my students so cruelly, today I want to let you know why the flowers are so red!

Facing the ridicule of Mr. Schaller,

Heifu was ready to give it one last try, but he changed his gentlemanly attitude and glared at Mr. Shaler like a ferocious wolf. Then he said to Mr. Shaler viciously,

"Teacher Shaler, I originally thought we could be friends, but I didn't expect that you would be even crazier than me when you started fighting. Don't think that I would be afraid just because you try to cut off the funding source of our Digital Secret Society..."

As Heifu was talking, he suddenly thought of a key question, and then he instantly changed from his beast form back to the image of a polite man in a suit.

Halfway through his words, the man in black suddenly let out a disgusting and scary laugh, then he straightened his tie, which was a little deformed from pulling too hard.

Then Heifu spoke to Mr. Shaler in a polite manner again,

"Teacher Shaler, although your attack just now made me a little flustered, you and I both know very well that when you swing your spear vigorously, you are at your most vulnerable and most susceptible to the enemy's attack."

As he spoke, the man in black began to point out the topic.

"Teacher Shaler, counterfeiting is no small crime. The minimum sentence is 20 years in federal prison. If the case is serious, there is no upper limit. Even if you are a teacher, you are still subject to the law. Teacher Shaler, do you really need to die with a cunning villain like me for the sake of a student?"

"It is necessary. I came here this time just to die with you. I will lose my freedom, and you will lose your power to rule the Secret Society and do evil. Bad people also have ideals, right? I really don't know how you will waste your life in the future if I destroy your ideals."

Teacher Schaller said without hesitation,

Hearing that Mr. Shaler was serious, Heifu angrily scolded Mr. Shaler,

"Asshole, you are such a hateful guy, do you really want to drag others along with you? Don't drag me along even if you want to die. How can there be such a hateful person as you! Asshole, shameless..."

Facing the helpless rage of Heifu, Mr. Shaler just looked at his watch and then reminded Heifu coldly,

"You have three minutes to surrender to me, Heifu. There is an old saying that goes, 'If you have green mountains, you will never run out of firewood.' Heifu, I am just an ordinary teacher, and you are the big boss behind the entire evil force. Don't you think it is a very embarrassing thing to be dragged down by a small character like me?"

Teacher Shaler's words were like a noose around Blackman's neck. As Blackman's feet left the ground, he felt the noose around his neck getting tighter and tighter, until he couldn't breathe. He felt a sense of suffocation.

At this moment, the man in black was covered in sweat, and drops of sweat were dripping from his forehead onto the desk in front of him, and his back was also soaked with sweat.

Then Heifu completely gave in and asked Mr. Shaler,

"what do you want from me!"

"The first thing I want is to forgive all debts of Abydos, prohibit you from attacking Hoshino and Shirako, and compensate all the residents of Abydos who were forcibly demolished by you. Can you do it?"

"Okay, I can promise you that!"

The black suit said calmly, agreeing to the first item of the deal,

Then, after finishing the first clause, Mr. Shaler suddenly stopped talking about the previous negotiation topic and asked Heifu a question off topic.

"Heifu, as a foreigner, can you feel the pain?"

"What do you want to do!"

Hearing what Mr. Shaler said, Heifu was very flustered.

Looking at the panic that flashed across Heifu's eyes, Teacher Shaler understood.

Although Heifu is a cold-blooded, heartless, murderous bastard without a trace of conscience, he can feel pain like a normal person.

Then Mr. Shaler said to Heifu coldly,

"My second request is not something that is too difficult to ask. As the saying goes, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. Since you have hurt Xingye, I will ask you for two fingers as compensation. That is not a problem, right?"

After saying that, Mr. Shaler took out a short-handled dagger that he had prepared in advance and threw it directly on the desk in front of Heifu, then deliberately asked Heifu,

"Do you want to do it yourself, or do you want me to help you? You can only cut off the thumb and index finger. As for which hand you want to cut, please feel free to do it."

Hearing Mr. Shaler's request, Heifu looked at the dagger in front of him. His hands kept shaking, and even his teeth were chattering.

It was like the Gestapo who committed numerous crimes and killed countless people in the Nazi concentration camps were finally captured by the Allied forces.

Facing the rope hanging on the beam and swaying in the wind, my whole body was trembling.

Although Heifu is an unforgivable villain, when he is really about to be executed, he is still so scared that he wets his pants. He does not have the madness that a demon should have.

Looking at the frightened Heifu, Mr. Shaler silently made a "please" and said,

"It's just two fingers. If you cut them off, I will immediately stop sending counterfeit money to Caesars Bank, publish a video, and destroy all the counterfeit money to save your Caesars Bank. Think about it, on one side are your fingers, and on the other side are the ideals of the Mathematical Secret Society that you are proud of and have fought for your whole life. How should you choose? I believe, Heifu, you will understand which is more important."

To this, the black suit's answer is,

"Teacher Shaler, how about we just pretend that this incident never happened, okay?"

Chapter 26 Repair (Part 1)

After a few hours,

In the emergency medicine department of Gehenna, Teacher Shaler stood in front of a clean white bed.

There was a cute little girl with pink hair, cute face and short stature lying on a white hospital bed.

The girl has a soft, cute, naturally friendly face, and her eyes are very unique. They are one in a million, one yellow and one blue, like a treasure in the world.

As for her appearance, she looks very much like the cutest protagonist in "Don't Be an Onii-chan", Mahiro. Cute, weak, and wanting...

Her name is Hoshino Kotori, the cutest slacker in the world.

I saw Hoshino lying on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. The metal IV stand next to Hoshino's bed, which held the IV bottle, was transformed by Hoshino, who was very lazy, into a hanging belt that could automatically drink juice.

I saw a bag of orange juice hanging on the IV stand where the bottle was originally hung. There was a hole in the juice bag, and a plastic hose was inserted into it. It passed through the winding body and connected to Xingye's mouth.

Lying on the bed, Xingye can drink juice just like drinking a box of Wangzai milk. He only needs to suck a little harder through the straw, and he can drink juice while lying down.

It is true that laziness is the primary driving force behind human technological progress.

Hoshino was lying on the hospital bed, looking at the scar on his right hand, and said to Mr. Shaler who came to visit him,

"So, teacher, is everything over?"

In response to Hoshino's question, Mr. Schaller, who came to visit Hoshino, sat down on the bed opposite Hoshino, then nodded vigorously to Hoshino and replied,

"It's all over. Caesar Group agreed to forgive all debts of Abydos and return all the lands of Abydos that were occupied. Teacher, I severely punished the black servant who hurt you. I demanded two fingers from him. We really had a perfect ending this time."

Hearing that Teacher Shaler had won the final victory, Hoshino looked at her injured right hand again. Hoshino tried to clench her right hand and tried to make a fist, and then Hoshino felt a piercing pain in the palm of her right hand.

It hurts!

Then Hoshino remembered what Himuro Sena, the head of Gehenna's emergency medicine department, said when the stitches were removed from her right hand this morning.

Please cherish your right hand, patient. From now on, your right hand can only perform simple grasping. For the sake of your health, please do not continue to use firearms in combat. You are no longer fit to go to the battlefield.

Thinking of this, I heard the news that Abydos had won a great victory.

Hoshino continued to look at his right hand and said self-deprecatingly,

"It seems that I will be left-handed in the future. I have to learn to use my left hand to hold chopsticks. Well, it doesn't matter. Abydos no longer needs my protection. I will leave it to my lovely juniors. I will just relax and enjoy my retirement."

Hoshino pretended to be relaxed and spoke the cruelest truth in the most relaxed and cheerful tone.

Uncle, I'm really crippled this time.

But just when Xingye had already determined,

The rice is cooked, the story of Abydos has come to an end, she can retire and live out her days, become a real uncle, and quietly disappear from everyone's sight,

Mr. Shaler, who had been silent all this time, suddenly smiled and said to Hoshino,

"Xingye, maybe things are not as bad as you think. Remember what I just said, we are having a happy ending."

Then, Mr. Schaller continued,

"At that time, I threatened Heifu to surrender to us and compensate him, and he accepted everything. But when I asked him to cut off his finger, he became cowardly and burst into tears. He didn't dare to face his mistakes. He yelled and screamed, but he could do everything else except cutting off his finger."
