Chapter 1643: Explain What?
"I feel that things don't happen without a cause," Li Zhangjin said with a questioning tone. "I think Mr. Chen needs to give us an explanation regarding this matter."
"Explain what? It is very obvious that someone is deliberately framing Mr. Chen," Principal Li's expression changed. "Are you doubting Mr. Chen?"
"I am not doubting, I just want to know the truth. Now that the virus is so severe, I want to know if Mr. Chen really has the ability to cure those who are infected," Li Zhangjin said. "After all, Mr. Chen is recognized by everyone as the one leading us, and this crisis is very serious."
"What if these people really died because of me?" Chen Yu glanced at him.
"Then I have reason to doubt whether your ability is truly suitable for continuing to lead us," Li Zhangjin said with a hint of seriousness. "Our leader must be capable."
"What, Mr. Chen cannot lead, so you can?" Qishu sneered. "Li Zhangjin, get your status straight. If it weren't for Mr. Chen, you wouldn't have the position you have today."
"Although I am untalented, we can choose a virtuous and capable person to step up," Li Zhangjin said indifferently.
"Shut up. If it weren't for Mr. Chen, we would have already fallen into chaos," a council member said angrily. "We prepared food and supplies in advance and sealed off Chinatown in time. Don't you know how chaotic it is outside now?"
"I admit that he has done well in these matters, but so what? He cannot solve the virus, and now everyone in Fusang knows him. We are on someone else's turf; if we let him continue to lead us, what will happen?"
Li Zhangjin argued with a red face and thick neck: "I feel that Chen Yu has a motive for coming here. No one knows what the situation outside is really like now."
"What motive could I have?" Chen Yu was practically amused to the point of laughter. He stood up and said, "I came here just to lock you all up and keep you from coming into contact with people outside?"
"Otherwise what? I don't know what your true motive is, but after you arrived, our President Huang was driven out of office, and then all sorts of messy things happened. You're saying these things aren't because of you?" Li Zhangjin said angrily.
"Li Zhangjin, hold your tongue and get out." Li Jinsheng was furious. "What is Mr. Chen's status? How can you allow yourself to slander him like this?"
"Master Li, I know you can fight, but in this matter, we must convince people with virtue. Since Chen Yu is related to those few deceased infected people, he should explain the matter clearly," Li Zhangjin said, still shamelessly.
"Virtue my foot. Have you been bought off by Huang Hong? If you dare to spout one more word of nonsense, I will throw you out right now," Li Jinsheng's face darkened.
After having crossed hands with Chen Yu, he knew how strong Chen Yu was, and he also knew that Chen Yu was a Dharma Cultivator. Such a person coming here with a motive? What motive could they have that would be worth Chen Yu coveting?
"Right now we keep hearing him say the situation is serious, but so far, the authorities here in Fusang have only announced one death, while three people have died after his treatment, and experts here in Fusang have already cured two cases. Do you still believe his words?" Li Zhangjin still wouldn't shut up.
"Alright, don't move," seeing that Li Jinsheng and the others couldn't help but want to take action, Chen Yu spoke up to stop them.
He stood up and looked at Li Zhangjin: "You think the official news is credible?"
"At the very least, it's more credible than you," Li Zhangjin gritted his teeth.
"Fine then, go find them. The number of deaths is already at least in the triple digits now. If you don't believe it, go to the port and take a look; one look and you'll naturally know," Chen Yu said indifferently. "You think I have a motive; what do you have that is worth me going to such lengths to get close to you all?"
"I don't know, but you definitely have a motive," Li Zhangjin said with conviction.
"Alright, then get lost," Chen Yu waved his hand. For a fool like this, he didn't want to complain to the other party, nor did he have the energy to.
"I'm not leaving. Everyone is being kept in the dark right now, and the Chinese Association has always been democratic," Li Zhangjin said with a death-seeking attitude.
"Democratic? Why didn't you say that when Huang Hong was in power?" Chen Yu was truly speechless. Are people like this all mentally disabled?
"Alright, since you say it's democratic, then initiate a vote. If there is anyone who, like you, thinks I came here with a motive, then I will leave immediately. I won't interfere in any matters of your General Association, and I won't manage the affairs of Chinatown anymore," Chen Yu said. "It doesn't need to be many; if one-third of the people feel that way, I'll count it as your win."
"Good. Does anyone here think I'm right?" Li Zhangjin turned his head to look at the people in the room. "I feel that Chen Yu's arrival has seriously affected our normal lives, and I don't know what his conspiracy is. Everyone who thinks he should leave, raise your hand."
After Li Zhangjin finished speaking, he was the first to raise his hand, and then he looked at everyone. He felt that there would be people in the room who would support him.
After all, if Chen Yu were driven away, they could all advance further; this was also a benefit. He didn't believe no one would be tempted.
However, after he raised his hand, the people in the room either ignored him by looking at their noses and hearts, or looked at him as if he were a fool.
Li Zhangjin began to panic a little. He trembled: "I am seeking justice for everyone; you cannot fail to support me. Chen Yu clearly has a problem."
"What problem does Mr. Chen have? Why didn't you stand up when Huang Hong was oppressing you?"
"That's right, you idiot. You still believe the official data? A friend of mine is near the port and said the virus is spreading very severely."
"It's not fake at all. I have a friend at the crematorium, and they are already queuing up."
"Heh, Li Zhangjin, if you think you're so smart, then leave by yourself. Go wherever you want, just don't stay in Chinatown."
Finally, someone couldn't help but explode, and the scene finally erupted like a powder keg.
"I, I did it all for everyone. You can't point your fingers at me," Li Zhangjin began to panic. He never expected that everyone at the scene would react so intensely.
"What 'for everyone'? You were just for your own selfish desires, right? Heh, Li Zhangjin, what kind of thing are you? If it weren't for Mr. Chen, you would still be exploited by Huang Hong. How is it that you've only lived a few good days and you've already started to forget who you are?" Qishu sneered. "Get out right now. How was I so blind as to promote you to this position?"
"Qishu, that's not what I meant. Alright, I was wrong, I apologize to everyone," seeing that the situation was not right, Li Zhangjin hurriedly put his hands together and apologized incessantly.
"It's too late. Now everyone knows what kind of thing you, Li Zhangjin, are. Get out of here quickly, and don't let me see you again," Li Jinsheng sneered.
