The School Beauty's Super Rogue

"Hall Master Zhu says I let personal grievances affect public duties, but do you have any evidence to present?"

Facing Zhu Tao's questioning, Qin Hao remained very calm, not even blinking.

"Evidence?"

Zhu Tao's face showed anger: "Your hatred for Vice Leader Qi is obvious to all; that's the best evidence!"

With these words, the crowd chimed in.

"Steward Qin, I'm not targeting you, but I think Hall Master Zhu makes a valid point!"

"Yes, even if the other party resists, you shouldn't strike without solid evidence!"

Seeing the crowd support him, Zhu Tao was secretly pleased. On the surface, he slapped the table and yelled, "Brothers, Vice Leader Qi, who treated us like family in the past, is being wronged like this. If we don't investigate, wouldn't it leave people cold-hearted?"

After another round of agreement, Zhu Tao stared intensely at Qin Hao and yelled, "Alliance Leader, I bet my position and earnestly request you to investigate Steward Qin!"

For other high-ranking members, as long as it's not about themselves, the fiercer the conflict, the better.

Thus, many people were speaking in support of Zhu Tao.

"Alliance Leader, Hall Master Zhu's proposal is not unreasonable!"

"I admire Steward Qin's capabilities, but I also think Hall Master Zhu's words have merit!"

"We earnestly request Hall Master to thoroughly investigate this matter!"

Despite the chattering accusations from everyone, Qin Hao remained calm and even had the leisure to smile at Chen Ruohao.

Chen Ruohao, however, could not stay calm.

The task of capturing Qi Tianzong had been assigned to Qin Hao by him; indeed, he had ulterior motives to achieve his goals through another's hand.

Now his subordinates were clamoring for an investigation, if it really began, wouldn't he himself be implicated?

Of course, he could simply deny it and let Qin Hao take all the blame.

However, doing so would still leave those smart subordinates suspicious of him and could create a negative atmosphere within the alliance.

Secondly, the Night Emperor was not someone to be easily manipulated; if cornered, who knows what kind of mischief he would cause.

Thirdly, aside from his position as the Alliance Leader, Chen Ruohao felt that Qin Hao was an excellent young man who did not deserve such treatment.

After deliberating multiple times, Chen Ruohao became more and more troubled and could only look at Qin Hao, signaling: the mess you've made, you clean it up!

Qin Hao understood what he meant, looking quite innocent, but inside he was raging: Damn it, what do you mean the mess I made? Obviously, you're the one who insisted on shoving the Vice Alliance Leader position to me!

Frankly, Qin Hao hadn't craved the position of Vice Alliance Leader, but now with everyone pressing so hard, he couldn't stand by without retaliating.

Zhu Tao saw that both Qin Hao and Chen Ruohao were in a bad spot and was even more smug inwardly.

He had always been low-key in the league, diligently serving as Qi Tianzong's loyal old dog. If it weren't for the importance of gaining higher status, he wouldn't risk offending the Night Emperor either.

But since he took the step, he wasn't about to back down hesitantly.

Bam!

The conference table took another slap, Zhu Tao's somewhat bulky body leaned forward a bit, and his round face got a notch closer to Qin Hao.

He yelled, "Steward Qin, do you feel any guilt about deliberately murdering Vice Leader Qi?"

This shout carried Inner Strength within it, having quite a shock akin to the He Dong Lion's Roar.

Ordinary people would be mentally disoriented upon hearing it and would subconsciously comply.

However, Qin Hao just sneered, as if hearing nothing.

Zhu Tao didn't believe it and roared in an imposing manner again, "Speak up!"

"Speak!"

"Steward Qin, please give us an explanation!"

A few of Qi Tianzong's old subordinates started making a fuss, turning the conference room, which had quieted down, noisy once more.

In this noisy environment, an abrupt voice sounded: "Originally, I wanted to use the Evil God Association to wipe out Sir and Qin Hao so Chen Ruohao wouldn't withstand the pressure and step down..."

The voice was low and hoarse, and it was almost instantly apparent that the speaker was Qi Tianzong.

The originally noisy scene immediately quieted down.

Just moments ago, the excited high-ranking members looked utterly surprised, with exaggerated expressions.

Zhu Tao, as the leader, was even more shocked, his bulky body trembling involuntarily.

Why did it turn out like this? Why would he use little tricks like recording?

Why! I was so close to climbing up the ranks!

Thinking of this, Zhu Tao, due to dejection, slumped heavily into his chair, his face covered in sweat, looking quite exhausted.

Click!

Qin Hao tossed his phone on the table and said calmly, "I recorded this yesterday. If you need to verify its authenticity, feel free to do so."

The action was calm, but the implication was very brazen: you bunch of fools, if you suspect the recording is fake, feel free to validate it!

No one answered because the release of the recording provided undeniable proof of Qi Tianzong's betrayal.

Moreover, Qin Hao daring to be so fearless meant the video was definitely real.

"Now, does anyone else have anything to say?"

Faced with Qin Hao's questioning, those who were previously so spirited and aggressive lowered their spirits like defeated roosters.

Zhu Tao kept his head down, afraid of others seeing his painfully twisted expression.

Chen Ruohao felt a slight sense of relief.

He initially thought Qin Hao was finished, but didn't expect Qin Hao to produce a recording to turn the tables.

Heh, truly worthy of being the Night Emperor, not letting down my favorable view.

Thinking this, Chen Ruohao smiled and said, "The matter of Qi Tianzong's betrayal is now ironclad, so, Steward Qin killing him due to uncontrollable circumstances was completely involuntary. This matter should not be discussed further in the future."

Still, no one responded; even if someone wanted to answer, they couldn't.

Their questioning was based on Qi Tianzong not yet being deemed a traitor.

Now, with irrefutable evidence, Qi Tianzong's death was irrelevant, accidental or not.

For those daring enough to betray the Alliance, their fate wouldn't be much better than death.

Moreover, in the recording, Qi Tianzong intended to force Chen Ruohao out of his position.

With Chen Ruohao's smiling yet cunning nature, Qi Tianzong would have faced significant pain even if brought back alive.

Seeing everyone become compliant, Chen Ruohao smiled even more, "Great, since that's the case, let's skip this and continue with the Vice Alliance Leader topic then..."

However, before he could finish, he heard Qin Hao languidly say, "Who said to skip this?"

These words shocked everyone, including Chen Ruohao.

He asked suspiciously, "Steward Qin, do you still have a problem?"

Qin Hao didn't speak, just took a stack of documents out of his pocket and tossed them on the table.

The crowd was puzzled, but only Chen Ruohao had an inkling.

He smiled, "Looks like Steward Qin plans to surprise us further."

Saying this, he had the secretary bring over the documents. After a round of reading, the smile on his face gradually faded.

The crowd saw his expression turn cold, not understanding the reason, but instinctively felt fear.

Zhu Tao was even more panicked, always feeling a chill circling his head.
