"Ridiculous! There are no criminals to catch here!"
Someone immediately came out to scold.
Others also found it ridiculous. This was the Qilin Restaurant, and there were a lot of powerful people here, so how could there be any criminals?
Besides, now is the time for them to have a banquet to celebrate. If the officials come here to arrest people, it will spoil their fun and not give them face.
Immediately, an official dignitary pulled out his phone and said, "Let me call and see what's going on!"
I called and the call was quickly connected. "Hello, Lao Yan, I just received a message saying that you guys are going to the Qilin Restaurant to arrest criminals. What's going on?"
A deep voice came from the phone, "Mr. Liu, don't worry about this matter. I can only tell you that it was an order from the city lord."
After saying this, the other party hung up the phone.
When the powerful man heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.
You have to understand, he's not just any ordinary person, but has official influence. Yet, the other party actually told him to leave it alone, explaining that this was an order from the city lord. With his political acumen, he immediately realized that this was no simple matter.
"Old Liu, what's going on? Who are they trying to arrest? And they're coming here to arrest someone? This is ridiculous!"
"Who are these young fools who are so ignorant? Don't they know that we are having a banquet at the Qilin Restaurant tonight?"
Many powerful people expressed their dissatisfaction.
In the blink of an eye, a large group of special police rushed in from the door, armed with guns and live ammunition. As soon as they came in, they exuded a sense of majesty and murderous aura, making everyone present feel an inexplicable pressure!
This situation was somewhat unexpected for everyone at the banquet.
"Officials are arresting criminals, and outsiders are leaving!"
Soon, a middle-aged man with a burly figure and a majestic aura came out and growled in a deep voice.
However, many of the powerful people here are not pushovers. They are top figures in society and naturally do not have the same natural awe of the government as ordinary people.
Soon, a powerful official came out and asked, "Hey, sir! What are you doing? Just arrest the criminals, why are you coming to our party?"
The middle-aged man leading the team showed some fear when he saw this powerful man. He was about to speak when an arrogant and domineering voice came from behind him.
"I came to your party to look for someone, what's the matter?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a man walked out, his face full of arrogance and arrogance.
And so many people present recognized him at a glance, including Su Chen.
It was none other than Wu Jianye.
The powerful man mentioned earlier frowned and said unhappily, "Jianye, what are you doing?"
Wu Jianye put his hands in his pockets, raised his head slightly, and scanned the crowd with his eyes. Soon he saw Su Chen, and the expression on his face became even more arrogant and intriguing.
"Playing tricks? Noono, I'm just following the official team and joining in the fun." Wu Jianye said with a smile. Then, he said with a forced smile: "But, I suggest you all keep a good distance from that guy named Su, and don't let him get you into trouble."
The next moment, the others followed Wu Jianye's gaze and looked at Su Chen.
What does that mean? Could it be that the person they want to arrest is Su Chen?
Su Chen remained calm. In fact, when the staff member rushed up and said that the officials were coming to arrest the criminals, he had already realized that these people were here to arrest him.
As for the crime, it is most likely related to the incident that happened at the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Ground.
But he was not afraid, nor did he run away immediately. He chose to stay where he was and wait and see what would happen.
Firstly, he had enough confidence in himself, and secondly, if he really ran away, it would be very likely that he would be convicted of a crime. At that time, the Su Group would be shut down immediately.
"Wu Jianye, you'd better explain yourself clearly!" the powerful man said in a deep voice.
Wu Jianye showed an intriguing smile, spread out his hands and said, "Isn't this obvious?"
Then, he pointed at Su Chen and shouted in an impassioned voice, "Su Chen, your crime has been exposed! Wait for the punishment of the law!"
His words were earth-shattering and caused a huge response at the scene.
You know, tonight's banquet was held for Su Chen. Su Chen was the protagonist of the evening. So many powerful people expressed their gratitude to him and extended olive branches to him. More importantly, tonight's banquet was actually a testimony, a ceremony to push Su Chen to the forefront and make him the new noble of Longcheng.
It can be said that now is Su Chen’s most glorious time.
And now, suddenly someone told them that Su Chen had committed a crime and was going to be arrested?
This seemed so absurd that they would have found it hard to believe if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
However, the facts were before them, and they had to believe that this was really happening.
Xiao Caiyin, who was originally distracted, shuddered immediately after hearing Wu Jianye's words. She woke up in an instant, staring at Wu Jianye unkindly and said rudely, "Wu Jianye! What nonsense are you talking about!"
When Wu Jianye heard Xiao Caiyin's words, he looked over. The moment he saw Xiao Caiyin, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Wu Jianye knew Xiao Caiyin, and he had even pursued her. Unfortunately, Xiao Caiyin looked down on him and had no good attitude towards him. The Xiao family was a large and wealthy family in Longcheng, so he couldn't force his way into her.
"Am I talking nonsense?" Wu Jianye sneered disdainfully, then said, "It seems you've been deeply deceived by this Su guy. You all thought he was a good person. Little did you know, he's a murderer who has committed all kinds of evil!"
When Wu Jianye said this, he attracted everyone's attention and aroused everyone's emotions. He felt that he had become the focus of the whole audience. He was the protagonist at this moment and was very excited and happy.
In front of him, Su Chen was just a supporting role, a villain, and just a stepping stone on his road to fame.
Immediately, another powerful official stepped forward and shouted, "You're talking nonsense! Grandmaster Su is a good man. He saved so many of our lives at the Dragon and Tiger Hunting Ground! If you dare to frame him, we'll be the first to disagree!"
His words were echoed by many powerful people.
They all remembered Su Chen's kindness to them, and this kindness was not easy to forget. After all, Su Chen saved not one or two people, but more than ten people. If anyone did not remember this kindness and spread it out, it would be ungrateful.
After hearing this, Wu Jianye burst into laughter even louder: "Hahahaha, he saved your lives? This is the funniest joke I've heard this year!"
"You bunch of idiots have all been fooled by this Su guy. He's not your savior, he's the mastermind behind this massive Dragon Tiger Hunting Ground case!"
