After Beating the Game, I Became the Villain BOSS-Chapter 86 - 82: Only Beat Scumbags

Su Mo picked up the phone: "Hello?"

A hurried voice came from the other end: "Is it Mr. Su Mo?"

Su Mo: "It's me."

Poxuding: "Are you okay? Did they give you any trouble? Do you need a lawyer?"

Su Mo chuckled: "No need, it was just routine questioning. I've already been released."

Poxuding: "Phew... that's good."

Su Mo asked with concern: "How's Sona?"

Poxuding sighed: "A few minor injuries, she's generally okay, but mentally a bit shaken. Such a small child being kidnapped, and witnessing death up close, sigh..."

Su Mo comforted: "Spend more time with her recently, take her out to play, help her relax, she'll be fine."

Poxuding: "Yes, we've already hired a psychologist. I'm sorry I can't express my gratitude to you in person right now; I need to be with my daughter. I'll definitely invite you for a meal when I get the chance."

Su Mo, not wanting to be overly polite: "Sure, I'll wait for your call."

Poxuding: "Oh, by the way, Sona mentioned before that the champion wool fabric suits you well. I've already bought it and had the tailor rush it according to your measurements. You can pick it up at Sasser No. 1 when you have time."

"If you like any ties, pins, or linings, have them pack it up for you to take away, all costs on me."

Su Mo didn't expect Poxuding to be so straightforward, spending money as he promised.

Su Mo felt secretly pleased, but still responded courteously: "Oh... this... I'm a bit embarrassed to accept..."

Poxuding: "Don't say that, you saved my daughter, it's only right for me to repay you. By the way, I heard you've started a tech company, still in the early stages?"

Su Mo: "Yes, what's up?"

Poxuding: "We at Taiyo Electric offer a variety of instruments and equipment for sale. If you have such needs, feel free to contact me; I'll provide you with internal prices significantly below market rate."

While the formal attire gift was just a pleasant surprise for Su Mo, this news made him overjoyed.

Scientific research is a bottomless pit; the future lab will require various equipment, and cheap purchasing would lead to incalculable savings.

Originally just a simple act of bravery, Su Mo never thought it would bring such great rewards!

He was thrilled: "To be honest, I really need research equipment. If Mr. Poxuding is willing to offer internal prices, that would be a big help."

Poxuding's tone was joyful: "As I said, it's only right for me to repay you, don't be polite... Oh! Sona's awake, I have to hang up now, contact me if you need anything, for now, goodbye."

The call ended.

Su Mo stretched and looked at the sunset outside the window.

"Feeling good."

...

Su Mo returned to the Lakefront Business District.

New Moon City is a place where riots are frequent; on average, there are more than a dozen shooting incidents every day, and police and thugs are engaged in daily pursuits and fights, which the citizens have long become accustomed to.

The site of the Gold robbery at Merlin Century Mansion was busy with shopkeepers drawing yellow tape and sheriffs and store clerks tallying losses, while other shops maintained normal operations.

The bodies had been removed, the blood cleaned, people bustling by the corridor; occasionally, tourists stopped outside the tape to snap pictures, adding captions and emojis to upload to their social media.

In the related topic, comments were continuously refreshed:

[Checked in at the scene! Family, a hundred likes, and I'll go in and take more pics (sunglasses)]

[So much gold on display, I also want to steal some (lol)]

[Death lottery, guess how many civilians were killed by the Anti-Violence Fourth Section this time? The answer is... one!]

[Only one? This Anti-Section dude is too gentle! He's really, I'll cry to death]

[My dad is dead, I have no home]

The tourists were simultaneously posting updates and complaining to friends, the cheerful chatter and endless mall holographic ads intertwined, forming a vivid yet numb scene.

Su Mo didn't join the crowd; he went straight into Sasser No. 1.

Initially in a great mood, ready to receive his first-ever formal attire.

But when he saw the person standing inside the store, his good mood vanished instantly.

"Why is she still here?" Su Mo asked coldly.

Jessica stood there with her head down, makeup messed up from crying, without her usual haughty demeanor, only weakness.

The manager of Sasser No. 1 came forward, quickly explaining: "Mr. Su Mo, we've been waiting for you. Calling her here is specifically to apologize to you."

Jessica sobbed: "I'm sorry... I shouldn't have been so arrogant... I'll definitely change in the future."

The manager added: "Sasser No. 1 will not tolerate employees who discriminate against customers; we've decided to dismiss her, and from now on, you won't see her here again."

Su Mo said coldly: "Whether she changes or gets dismissed, what does it have to do with me? Keeping such a person affects your brand and reputation, not me."

He looked at Jessica, rebuking her: "And I don't want to discuss this now. Service attitude can be improved; once it's improved, it's fine. But is your apology even about attitude now?"

"You're despicable to the extreme! Why did you push Sona out at that moment? Do you know you nearly got her killed?"

Jessica cried: "I was too scared... I'm just a woman, what could I have done... I had to run..."

Su Mo, furious: "I didn't say not to run! Couldn't you pull Sona along to run? Why use her as a shield, pushing her toward the thugs?!"

"Still have the nerve to argue here? Apologizing verbally, but internally believing you did no wrong, right? You're lucky to be in the Inner City; out on the frontier, I'd punch your head off!"

Unable to counter Su Mo, Jessica stood there crying loudly, deliberately making a scene as if Su Mo was bullying her, attracting many tourists to look over.

This little trick was seen right through by Su Mo, only making him more disgusted, his fists clenched tightly.

Seeing Su Mo enraged, Jessica started to panic: "Don't... don't hit me..."

Su Mo replied indifferently: "Don't be stupid, lady, just leave. I don't hit women."

Jessica shrank back and hurriedly left.

As she passed by, Su Mo kicked her on the backside: "Except for bitches!"

Jessica fell face-first, knocking out a front tooth, covering her mouth, clumsily got up and ran out crying.

Su Mo ignored her, confident that her fate wouldn't be good.

Don't think Poxuding is humble; even clay statues have tempers.

This wretched person almost got his daughter killed; Poxuding absolutely won't let it go unpunished, but Su Mo didn't care what kind of lesson it would be, as he'd already vented his anger.

Su Mo turned to the manager: "I'm here to pick up the clothes."

The manager politely replied: "Mr. Poxuding has instructed us to have it urgently made. This way, please." 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Su Mo walked with the manager to the back, and his eyes lit up as he saw the finished formal outfit.
