Chapter 77 Zhou Yue's Arrest
"Block nearby streets, surround Paradise Rainforest, prepare for arrest!"
With Chen Xu's abilities, having a direction, a day was enough for him to find out the recent activities in Paradise Rainforest, so he naturally figured out the contact person in Osmanthus Lane and Zhou Yue.
Therefore, upon confirming that there was indeed something unusual about the Paradise Rainforest, the director immediately agreed to contact the Armed Police Force.
The source of the note was nowhere to be found. The person who came didn't even show their eyes and finally disappeared without a trace in a blind spot without surveillance. But no matter what the person behind it wanted, as long as the note was real, he would do as the person behind it wanted.
The plainclothes officers, who had already infiltrated the Paradise Rainforest, moved stealthily toward room 0013.
Zhou Yue and Zhou Chenglong were led to room 0013 by the reception staff. The room was on the first floor, but it was close to the backyard. You could see the back garden when you opened the window.
Zhou Chenglong looked at the large bathtub in the center and the shower room separated by transparent glass on the side, and hesitated. "Third Sister, shall we share a room?"
Zhou Yue sat on the sofa, drinking the juice that the waiter had just brought in, without saying a word.
Zhou Chenglong, feeling awkward, started eating the desserts and pastries on the table next to him. He knew his third sister wouldn't be so kind; she probably just wanted to come and dragged him along to bolster her courage. Fine, with so much good food, he figured he might as well eat a few more bites.
But he choked after only a few bites because he saw the opposite wall move—no, there was a door on that wall, disguised perfectly.
That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that several bodyguards in black and two people in white coats came out.
Just as Zhou Chenglong was about to speak, he was subdued by the bodyguards with lightning speed. Two men in white coats skillfully administered the injection to Zhou Chenglong, and he instantly passed out.
The man in the suit who was leading the group glanced at Zhou Yue and placed a briefcase in front of her. "Ms. Zhou Yue, please take a look."
Zhou Yue excitedly opened the box, her fingers tracing the cash inside. "No need, I trust you."
She took out the black plastic bag she had prepared, put the money into two pockets, then stuffed it into her grocery shopping bag, and finally filled it with the self-service snacks from Paradise Rainforest before leaving.
Even as the door closed, she didn't look back at Zhou Chenglong on the ground. He had been stealing her resources and exploiting her value since they were young. She had already run away and was planning to let him go, but he still had to come and harm her. This was all his own doing!
Zhou Yue quickly left the room, unaware that the moment the door closed, the police broke in through the window, rescuing Zhou Chenglong from falling into the clutches of the criminals. All the others were arrested, but the leader pressed something, and the door to the secret passage closed.
Upon receiving the message from VIP room 0013, Chen Xu rushed in to search for the secret door.
As soon as Zhou Yue left the Paradise Rainforest, the police pinned her to the ground, scattering the money from her cloth bag everywhere. She was caught! She was finished! That was the only thought in Zhou Yue's mind.
She collapsed to the ground, utterly powerless to resist.
Upstairs across the street, Yan Songyu put away his binoculars when Zhou Yue was put into the police car. Sending Zhou Yue in jail for a few years wouldn't be bad. The power behind Paradise Rainforest is unfathomable. Even Chen Xu couldn't eliminate it all in such a short time. So Zhou Yue won't have an easy time in jail.
In order to avoid attracting Chen Xu's attention, Yan Songyu didn't pay any special attention to Zhou Yue anymore. Yan Songyu and Feng Yu only read the news about Paradise Rainforest online.
The top two leaders of Hai City were arrested, but due to insufficient preparation, a small portion of the people in the underground secret room of Paradise Rainforest escaped. Moreover, Paradise Rainforest was only one of the strongholds. Subsequently, Chen Xu led his men to destroy three more strongholds. For three consecutive months, Hai City was under martial law, and armed police were everywhere on the streets arresting fugitive criminals.
Zhao Qi still sent news about Zhou Yue. The police searched the Zhou family's house and also checked the attic where they had been staking out. Fortunately, when they left from the house diagonally opposite the Zhou family's house, they had already cleaned up all traces. That house originally belonged to one of them, and the surveillance cameras at Zhou Yue's house had long been removed, so nothing was exposed.
Zhou Yue's crimes are undeniable. Her ill-gotten gains were all seized by the police on the spot, and the man with the pointed face who met with her also confessed after being arrested.
After Zhou Chenglong woke up, he learned that Zhou Yue wanted to sell his kidney. He cursed at Zhou Yue at the police station and even tried to hit her, but was eventually stopped by the police.
Zhou Yue's attempted sale of another person's organs constituted the crime of organizing others to sell human organs, for which she was sentenced to three years in prison. At the same time, her act of selling Zhou Chenglong's organs without his consent also constituted the crime of intentional injury, which was also an attempted crime, and she was given a lighter sentence of three years in prison. With the two crimes combined, Zhou Yue was ultimately sentenced to six years in prison.
Yan Songyu transferred a sum of money to him as a reward for his hard work. "Thank you for your hard work, Zhao Qi. You don't need to pay attention to that side until Zhou Yue comes out."
Zhou Mu had been in a daze during her summer vacation. One day, a large group of police officers stormed into her house. She stood helplessly in a corner watching them search, and then a young policewoman took her aside for questioning.
What is meant by buying and selling other people's organs?
Can a person live without a kidney?
Can a kidney be transplanted into another person's body?
Zhou Mu didn't understand. All she knew was that her mother had committed a crime. Her mother had been arrested for trying to sell her uncle's kidney and was going to serve six years in prison.
The policewoman took her to see Zhou Yue once, but Zhou Yue didn't say anything sentimental or regretful to her, nor did she make any arrangements for her future life. She just asked her to go home and bring her clean underwear, and to bring it to her once a month from now on.
"Did you hear that, Zhou Mu?" Zhou Yue sat opposite Zhou Mu, her hands and feet shackled.
"Okay," Zhou Mu replied softly.
When Zhou Yue was taken home by the police, she was still in a daze. The policewoman asked worriedly, "Zhou Mu, has your mother made any arrangements for your life going forward? Is she going to have your uncle take care of you? But judging from the way your uncle acted the other day, I'm afraid he won't treat you well."
She knew about Zhou Yue's family situation; Zhou Mu only had Zhou Yue and Zhou Chenglong as relatives, and she was somewhat worried about her.
"It's okay, sister, thank you. I can take care of myself."
She said she was strong, but in reality she was thinking about what to do in the next few years.
Even though Zhou Yue treated her badly, Zhou Yue was her mother and her only support. Now that support is gone, she needs to eat and go to school. What should she do?
When they arrived at the Zhou family home, Zhou Chenglong was eating a bowl of noodles. Upon seeing the policewoman, he immediately put down his bowl to greet her, "Officer Li, thank you for bringing Mumu back!"
“This child has suffered a lot today. Please take good care of her. The grudges between adults have nothing to do with children. Don’t take your anger out on her. I will come to see her again tomorrow.”
Zhou Chenglong quickly assured her, "Look at what you're saying, I'm not an animal. Mumu is so young, and she's grown up being abused by her mother, yet she's still well-behaved and sensible. How could I possibly hold a grudge against her?"
"That would be best. I'll be going now." Officer Li patted Zhou Mu's head and said goodbye. "I'm going back to the station now. You can come to me if you need any help."
"Okay, thank you, sister!"
The moment the door closed, Zhou Mu trembled violently, her small hands gripping the hem of her clothes tightly. She was afraid that Zhou Chenglong would take his hatred for Zhou Yue upon her.
"Heh~ Scared?"
