Chapter 333
At that moment, he realized that everything Tommy said was true, and Julius was right. Something was going on with Nico!
He had been deceived. Nico was not a good guy, and Stone Village was not some hero village. Julius was not a villain either. In fact, he had been investigating the truth the entire time.
Yet, they thought Nico was on their side and even awarded Stone Village the title of a hero village while treating Julius as the bad guy and having George lead a team to arrest him!
He was totally fooled!
“Shit. Nico wanted to use George to get rid of Julius. I must stop him.”
Stephen quickly took out his phone and called George, who was fighting with a bloody nose in the factory. He had dropped his phone nearby, so he did not notice Stephen’s call coming through. The only thought in his mind now was to arrest Julius to protect Hill City and Stephen!
Seeing that the call was not picked up, Stephen panicked.
“Come with me!”
He wanted to go to the factory to stop them, hoping he was not too late.
At the same time, in Stone Village, Nico was informed that Tommy had gone missing. He immediately realized Tommy had escaped.
“He must have gone to report me. My plan is about to succeed. I can’t let him ruin it!”
While Nico sent his men to look for Tommy, he rushed to the factory.
“If everything goes as planned, Julius and George are in the factory. If I kill them myself and then move the previous village chief’s body, I can shift all the responsibility.”
He could claim that Julius worked for the South Regent and George sacrificed himself while trying to arrest him. He could also claim that Julius caused the previous village chief’s death and that he knew nothing!
As long as both Julius and George were dead, there would be no witnesses left.
A few minutes later, he arrived at the factory. As he walked into the factory, he saw that George had knocked Julius to the ground.
Obviously, George had won the fight.
Nico smiled. “Mr. Lowe, how impressive!”
George was relieved to see Nico’s arrival. Although he had won, he had sustained quite

some injúries and still felt light–headed.
If Julius tried to escape at that moment, he might not be able to stop him. Fortunately, now that Nico was here, he had a helper, and they could definitely keep Julius under control.
George smiled. “Julius, you won’t escape this time.” re
Nico said, “Mr. Lowe, please take a break and leave the rest to me.”
George nodded and slowly walked away, intending to sit down and take a rest. However, just as he walked away, he heard a gunshot!
He halted in his steps, and his eyes widened. He immediately spun around. The sight that welcomed him left him in shock and disbelief, his face ashen.
Nico held a gun, smoke still rising from the barrel. On the other hand, Julius was shot in the chest, blood continuously gushing out as his body convulsed. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
“What did you do?” George shouted.
Nico smiled slyly. “I’m getting rid of the South Regent’s subordinate, of course.”
Seeing his smile, George felt a chill down his spine. “But you can’t shoot him with a gun. We’ll have him tried in court!”
Nico shook his head. “No, you don’t have the chance to anymore because you’ll die here with the South Regent’s subordinate, Julius, and I was never here. I don’t know anything about what happened here today.”
George immediately understood everything.
He stumbled backward, unable to accept the truth. He was fooled, and Nico was the real problem. Julius had been right all along.
However, it was too late. Now, they were both in Nico’s hands, and Julius had been shot in the chest, his injury severe. If he could not get medical treatment in time, he would not survive much longer.
