Chapter 243 Invitation for Tea. (2/2)



And... the police even found letters of betrayal between them and the Japanese devils in their home!!!

This caused an uproar among the crowd.

"What? Chairman Jiang is an enemy agent?"

"Huh? Chairman Jiang is a spy?"

"So Chairman Jiang and his whole family are enemy spies! How despicable!"

The rumors spread wider and wider, and became increasingly outrageous.

It has escalated to the point where "Chairman Jiang and his entire family are veteran spies who have been lying low for over a decade, and this time they've all been caught red-handed by the police!"

·······

Meanwhile, a dozen burly men stuffed four people, who had been beaten beyond recognition, into sacks. Once they reached the main street, they pushed them off and then sped away on their bicycles, disappearing without a trace.

After kind-hearted people took the four of them to the hospital and reported the incident to the police, they slowly regained consciousness.

As soon as Chairman Jiang opened his eyes, he felt pain all over his body, as if he had been chased by a ghost, which made him gasp.

His wife, daughter, and son, who were in the same ward, had all woken up and were all in pain, convulsing.

"Mom and Dad, little sister, what's going on? Why are you all here?" Jiang Xiaodeng had just woken up and was still a little confused.

"Yesterday, I was on my way home from get off work when I passed through the alley and suddenly felt a pain in the back of my head, and then I couldn't remember anything." Jiang Xiaodeng's sister was also very confused.

Chairman Jiang's eyes were filled with anger, and his chest heaved with rage.

"We've all been kidnapped! Bastard! If I find out who it was, I'll kill him!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaodeng slowly recalled what had happened yesterday, and his expression turned extremely pale.

"Dad, could it be one of your enemies?"

Old Jiang's wife, clutching her throbbing face, complained bitterly, "I told you your position is too conspicuous and makes you too many enemies. We should probably step down, but you wouldn't listen. Now look what's happened! Today is just a lesson, but tomorrow you might be the death of our whole family!"

He understood what his wife meant. She had advised him many times that he should stop now that he had made enough money and go back to his hometown to avoid his enemies and enjoy his old age.

He understands the reasoning, but people are greedy and not easily satisfied. He has already taken all that wealth and status into his hands, so how could he possibly let go of it?

As for those enemies, didn't he send them all away? In every sense of the word.

"Okay, I got it, just shut up!" All that nagging is so annoying!

Old Jiang was very impatient, and his wife didn't dare to say anything more, only covering her badly injured hands and feet and silently shedding tears.

Although she felt good about her life now, she was also genuinely insecure and afraid, fearing retaliation. Sure enough, this time someone came knocking on her door.

Jiang Xiaodeng and his father had similar thoughts: with so many benefits in hand, it would be foolish to back down now!

"Dad, what should we do? Call the police?"

Just as Jiang Laodeng was about to answer, he heard a noise at the door.

A large group of people came over in a grand procession.

The group was led by police officers, followed by personnel from the Ministry of State Security.

The person who spoke was also a police officer: "Chairman Jiang, your house has been burgled. Your neighbor reported it to the police this morning. When we took people to investigate the scene, we found these letters informing you of the Japanese, and they even have your personal seal on them. Please come with the comrades from the Ministry of State Security."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Ministry of State Security officers stepped forward to arrest him.

Chairman Jiang stared in horror at the letters in their hands. How could this be? He was just greedy! He wasn't courting death!

"Officer, this must be a frame-up! How could I be an enemy agent? My whole family was kidnapped yesterday afternoon, and we only woke up in the hospital this morning. We have no idea what happened!"

His words were met with noncommittal from the crowd.

Many people stepped forward and said, "President Jiang, since this has happened, please cooperate with the investigation. If you have truly been framed, we will naturally clear your name once we find out the truth."

At this point, Chairman Jiang calmed down. According to the rules, he had to go with them.

He wasn't afraid because he hadn't done it. After all, the Ministry of State Security had strict requirements for handling cases, and they would release him once the facts were cleared.

But what he feared was that they would find out about his corruption! However, on second thought, those people were probably even more afraid of being exposed than he was, and those he had enemies with couldn't cause any more trouble...

After thinking it through, he smiled calmly and said, "Okay, I'll go with you. I also hope that your Ministry of State Security can clear my name fairly and justly."

Many ignored the implication in his words and simply had him taken away.
