1006 A Good Idea?
The fight had come to an end, and a winner had been announced. With that, the ref had come into the ring, and along with them a large group of those from the One Gang. In this instance, it was usually time for the after-fight interviews where they would ask a bunch of people questions.
However, Jayden appeared to still be on the floor, knocked out. So instead, a microphone had been handed to just Harvor.
“Today would have been quite a glorious day,” Harvor said. “The fight was tougher than those I had faced in the past, and Jayden Tiger is a skilled fighter. However, I need to make something clear so no one else tries what happened today, to happen again.”
“Something Jayden did today is considered illegal in the AFC. There’s a reason we have rules in the AFC, and it’s because we don’t wish for anyone to lose their life for the sake of entertainment.”
“Which is why Jayden will be banned from the AFC, and this is a more serious matter where other governing bodies will have to get involved as well.”
It was a surprising side for many who didn’t know Harvor, to see him speaking this way. Everything he said made sense to the general public. His words felt kind, and the public had no reason to go against him.
In the eyes of everyone, Jayden was the villain, a loose cannon who had gone too far, and that’s when on the arena floor itself, a special set of handcuffs, the same type used by the White Rose, were placed on Jayden’s wrists and legs.
“Gary, what do we do?” Xin asked again. A mix of emotions filled her. She was shaking with anger and just wanted to rush out. At the same time, she was worried and scared about what was going to happen to Jayden now that he was in the hands of Harvor.
The police, White Rose, no one would dare to try to take something from Harvor.
Gary was conflicted about what he should do as well. Right now, he wished he had Kai by his side, knowing whether acting rashly was the right thing or not.
Unexpectedly, there were two individuals on the ground floor already thinking ahead.
“Hey, we have to do something,” Austin said.
“What do you mean?” Park replied. “Are you saying to go right into the ring and try to fight those guys? That’s crazy.”
“You’re right, but if my gut is right, after all the showmanship, the belt, and the interview questions in the ring are over, there’s someone who won’t be able to hold themselves back anymore and will jump into the middle of all of this mess. So we need to find a way to clear this place.”
Now Park understood. Of course, Gary would end up getting involved; it always seemed like he did. The only thing holding him back was the number of spectators there were, the number of people in one place.
Park immediately started to look for a solution.
“Don’t worry, I got it. It’s time for me to shine, baby,” Park said as he started to push through the crowd. His body was relatively thinner than Austin’s, so it was easier for him to get through.
“I’m really not sure if I can trust that guy yet, at least for important jobs,” Austin muttered to himself.
It was only a few moments later, though, that a loud ringing was heard throughout the entire arena.
“What is that, is that the fire alarm?”
“Quick, we need to head to the quickest exit. Come on.”
“Hey, whenever a fire alarm is set off, these things are never real in the first place.”
“And you really want to risk it in a place like this? Be my guest, wait for me.”
Austin had a smile on his face.
“It seems that maybe I was wrong about Park; he had a good idea after all.”
The people were exiting the stands and the arena fairly quickly. It didn’t take long for Park to return to where Austin was, and raising his hand, Austin gestured for a high five.
“Good job, and now we need to just wait and see.”
It didn’t take long for the people to exit the place, yet Harvor, the ref, and his people were still inside. The ref placed his hand next to the earpiece so he could hear more clearly.
“Stanley has confirmed that there is no such fire, and where the alarm was pulled, there is no fire either,” the ref explained.
“So someone pulled it on purpose to clear this place, huh? I wonder what’s going to happen now,” Harvor said.
In one of the VIP rooms, two of the guards standing by the door seemed quite panicked about the alarm. Even more so because the person they were meant to be looking after wasn’t even moving.
“Miss Bree, I think it might be safer if we were to leave this place,” the guard said.
“It’s fine,” Daphne replied back. “Can’t you see? Coco here hasn’t reacted at all. If there was a fire, he would be rushing off. Something is about to happen, and I don’t want to miss it.”
Daphne continued to stroke the fur of her pet lion as she watched what was about to take place.
It wasn’t just her who hadn’t left, though. In another room, another representative of one of the Kings, part of the Lupus gang, Ylva had remained in place.
“We don’t have to worry. If there was a fire, I would have smelled it,” Ylva said. “Let’s wait and see what’s going to happen, and whether or not we should get directly involved.”
