"This..." Yu Qiang was still unwilling, but he was already in a difficult situation.
"Call the police and say that the Chen Group has gangsters causing trouble," Yu Lu roared. She was clever enough to directly accuse the other party of being a gangster.
However, before she could call the police, officers arrived directly.
The criminal investigation team and the commercial crime investigation department asked directly, "Who is Yu Qiang?"
"I...I am." Yu Qiang shrank back.
“Yu Qiang, a gang leader in Hexi more than ten years ago, has a lot of criminal records. Moreover, you are suspected of leaking company secrets and theft of a huge amount of money, so come with us.” A policeman clicked the handcuffs on Yu Qiang.
"It's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, officer. Lulu, you have to find a way to get me out of here!" Yu Qiang turned to look at Yu Lu as she was being forcibly dragged away.
With Yu Qiang arrested, the remaining people lost their confidence, and the security department was essentially breached.
“Ye Xingchen?” Zhang Qiao walked up.
"Captain Zhang, we meet again?" Ye Xingchen said with a smile.
"You've been quite active in Jinling, haven't you?" Zhang Qiao said speechlessly. He turned his head to look at the smashed French window and Li Dahu and the other people lying outside, then looked at Ye Xingchen: "What happened here?"
“These people are gangsters. They disguised themselves as security guards and stormed into the Chen Group to cause trouble.” Ye Xingchen said, “Captain Zhang, you know that Changye Heavy Industry, under the Chen Group, is a key player in the development of China’s heavy industry.”
“These people may be instigated by foreign forces. They are very dangerous and want to strangle our heavy industry. You must be on guard.”
With Ye Xingchen's serious accusation looming large, Zhang Qiao couldn't afford to take it lightly.
Although he knew things were definitely not that simple, he had no choice but to have his subordinates call an ambulance to take the person away first.
Several police officers stayed behind, took statements, and that was the end of the matter.
Zhang Qiao deliberately kept Ye Xingchen behind: "I heard the Jiangnan Club was vandalized last night? Did you know about it?"
"I don't know. Where is Jiangnan Club?" Ye Xingchen looked at Zhang Qiao with some surprise. "Why was this place vandalized? Was it a competitor coming for revenge or what?"
"You really don't know?" Zhang Qiao stared at Ye Xingchen, looking speechless.
The Jiangnan Clubhouse is the premises of the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce; no one would dare to cause trouble there.
Of course, Ye Xingchen had the guts; he openly challenged the Huang family father and son.
"I really don't know, Captain Zhang." Ye Xingchen looked completely innocent, and her pure eyes made Zhang Qiao doubt his own judgment.
But thinking about Ye Xingchen's behavior, he said speechlessly, "Stop pretending. This matter is definitely related to you, and Huang San's son, Huang Shihao, had his hand chopped off."
"I swear, I really didn't do this," Ye Xingchen said confidently.
Indeed, he did not do this; it was Gu Manyun who did it.
"You don't need to be so secretive. I know this matter is related to you, but I have no intention of pursuing it."
Zhang Qiao lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and then exhaled a smoke ring.
"Six years ago, I took on a case involving a female college student... who was already three months pregnant."
"When she was found, she was on the shallow beach by the river, her clothes were disheveled and her body was covered with wounds."
"Her hands and feet were pierced with nails, her lower body was torn apart, and she was tortured with heavy objects..."
Ye Xingchen was slightly taken aback. He looked at Zhang Qiao with a complicated expression. At this moment, Zhang Qiao seemed to have aged a lot.
He took a deep drag on his cigarette: "All the evidence points to Huang Shih-hao; he's the one who did it."
“When I tried to make arrests, I encountered resistance, and someone quickly came forward to confess to everything. I knew that the so-called murderer was just a scapegoat. I wanted to continue the investigation, but my superior stopped me.”
"I still can't forget what that girl looked like. She was young and beautiful, but her eyes were wide open, and she died with her eyes open. I was arrogant. As a police officer, I knew who the murderer was, but I couldn't bring him to justice."
"This isn't your fault. Sometimes your abilities are limited," Ye Xingchen sighed.
Zhang Qiao is a good policeman. He and Bai Zilin are the same kind of people, but compared to Bai Zilin, he has more worldly wisdom and experience from the underworld.
There's nothing he can do. After all, he's not Bai Zilin, and he doesn't have Bai Zilin's family background. He has achieved his current status entirely through his own hard work, step by step.
If he hadn't been so naive and worldly-wise, he would probably just be an ordinary policeman now.
“But even now, I can’t forget that incident. I even hate this world a little.” A chill emanated from Zhang Qiao. “Sometimes I hate that God is blind. That beast did so many bad things, but why is he still at large?”
"It's just not the right time yet," Ye Xingchen said calmly. "Everything in this world has a cause and effect."
“Huang Shih-hao does bad things, his father cleans up his mess, and above them, the Liang family is even higher and protects them. All of this seems to be flawless.”
"But the way of Heaven is the way of Heaven, and their retribution begins from this moment."
"What exactly do you want to do?" Zhang Qiao gritted his teeth, stubbed out his cigarette, and stood up as if he had made up his mind: "If needed, I can help you."
"I don't need your help. You have a family, and it's best if you don't interfere in some things." Ye Xingchen shook his head.
“Heh…family?” A trace of sadness appeared on Zhang Qiao’s face: “Because I was too stubborn in handling things a few years ago, and offended people.”
"When my wife was picking up the kids from school, a car sped towards us."
“She pushed my child aside, and then she was hit by a car and became a vegetable. It’s been six years and she hasn’t woken up.”
Zhang Qiao's eyes were bloodshot, and he clenched his fists tightly: "To prevent retaliation, I had no choice but to send my child to my parents-in-law's house in another city. All of this was the work of the Shengshi Chamber of Commerce."
"Such a thing is true?" Ye Xingchen was astonished.
“Yes, I used to be a simpleton, but that incident forced me to learn what the world of gangsters and human relationships are like.” Zhang Qiao smiled, his expression somewhat sorrowful: “I’m a policeman, but I also know how dark this world can be.”
"What I've experienced is just the tip of the iceberg of the darkness in this world. If you need my help, just ask."
