At this moment, a sliver of hope still lingered in everyone's hearts.
Even if this old dog confesses, his one-sided statement proves nothing.
As long as they insist they know nothing about it, there's nothing Qin Luofei can do about it!
Zhao Tianming shook his head first, his face indifferent, and said, "I'm sorry, Director Qin, I've never heard of these names."
"Yes, Director Qin, I've never heard of it either."
"Yes, yes, I've never heard of it."
Seeing everyone deny it outright, Qin Luofei's face showed a look of realization.
"Oh, I see..."
But he quickly turned the gun on Zhao Tianming again.
"Director Zhao, this is a list of students who have recently gone missing from the school. It's understandable that others haven't heard of it, but it's not right that you haven't either. Did Secretary Yan not report it to you?"
Having said that, he ignored Zhao Tianming's fascinating expression.
He glanced sideways at Yan Congjie beside him and laughed: "Hehe, Secretary Yan, they all say they don't know, so this is all your responsibility."
Upon hearing these rather threatening words, Yan Congjie almost burst into tears.
These bastards are clearly trying to shift all the blame onto themselves.
Dozens of lives lost, can I bear that responsibility?
Fine, if you're so heartless, don't blame me for being ruthless!
In front of everyone, his old face suddenly broke into tears, and he burst into loud sobs.
"Chief Qin, I'm innocent!"
“Those dirty deeds were all ordered by Zhao Tianming. He insisted on dragging me onto their pirate ship and said he would kill my whole family if I didn’t cooperate.”
“I have elderly parents to support and young children to raise; how can I withstand his threats?”
"Now that Director Qin has arrived, justice has been served!"
"Director Qin, you have to do me justice! Waaaaah..."
After all that nonsense, it all boiled down to just two words: "dirty stuff."
But there wasn't a single specific detail.
Qin Luofei slammed her hand on the table.
"Shut up!"
"Is this what I asked you to confess?"
"Tell me quickly, where did those students go?!"
Startled by the slap, Yan Congjie trembled.
Yes, yes, yes.
"Those young male and female students...all of them..."
Seeing Zhao Tianming's rather threatening gaze, Yan Congjie's inner struggle vanished in an instant.
With gritted teeth and a fierce determination, she glared back at Zhao Tianming.
"They were all humiliated and played with by those bastards Zhao Tianming, Ren Xiaojun, and Zhou Xuan...and then killed!"
"Whoosh!"
Zhao Tianming could no longer sit still.
He suddenly stood up and stared intently at Yan Congjie.
His tone was icy: "Secretary Yan! You must be careful with your words and provide evidence, understand?"
Qin Luofei waved her hand, gesturing for him to sit down.
"Director Zhao, don't be in such a hurry. Let Secretary Yan finish speaking."
"Secretary Yan, are what you said true? Aside from covering it up, you didn't participate in the rape?"
Yan Congjie was too hasty.
"Director Qin, everything I said is true. They did it all. The drug was also provided by that bitch Zhou Xuan."
"I did not participate in the rape, you must believe me!"
Seemingly in an effort to further clear himself of suspicion, Yan Congjie decided to use himself as a scapegoat.
"Director Qin, you know me well."
"My old bones are too weak to do anything, even if I wanted to."
Not only Zhao Tianming, but the others also couldn't sit still.
They all turned dark and launched a barrage of verbal attacks against Yan Congjie.
"Damn you, Yan the old dog. You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."
"Who the hell did you call a slut? Your mother is the slut! Explain yourself clearly, I don't know what kind of sleeping pills you're talking about!"
"Director Qin, get this idiot out of here! He's making things up without any evidence. We're innocent!"
These shelter leaders have completely lost their usual leadership demeanor; it's a classic scene of dogs fighting each other.
Faced with the onslaught of the crowd, Yan Congjie was unable to defend himself.
He could only look to Qin Luofei for help.
Just then.
As one reckless passerby got more and more agitated, he grabbed the glass ashtray in front of him.
With a "whoosh," it was thrown at Yan Congjie's head, who was in a wheelchair and unable to dodge.
This person was clearly desperate and wanted to shut this traitorous old dog up forever.
If this hits hard, Yan Congjie can finally shut up.
But as the ashtray flew out, everyone only felt a dark shadow suddenly flash before their eyes.
Liu Kai, who had been sitting quietly watching the show, suddenly flashed forward and blocked Yan Congjie's path with lightning speed.
He reached out and caught the flying ashtray with a "thud".
He looked at the person who threw the ashtray and sneered, "Speak properly, throwing things and hitting people is wrong. If there's a next time, I'll throw you off the roof."
"you..."
The man, who was initially quite defiant, wanted to say, "Go ahead and throw it at me if you dare."
But then I recalled Liu Kai's ghostly figure and his past achievements.
Startled, he swallowed the words back.
When a strong person tries to reason with you, you'd better try to reason with them in return.
If you act like a hooligan, you'll suffer a terrible fate.
The meeting room was noisy, and the noise outside was even more intense.
The survivors watched with great interest this unprecedented official verbal sparring.
They kept whispering and pointing.
The most emotional of them were the parents of the deceased students.
They stared intently at the screen, their eyes wide with rage.
Although the live stream has only resulted in mutual accusations so far, no substantial evidence has been revealed.
But we're not stupid.
