Chapter 34 Official Response
Mr. Chen was arrested. He was so confused, he even thought he was dreaming, that he didn't realize what was happening until he was put into a police car and handcuffed.
He struggled, his belly fat trembling, his face grim. He emphasized, "I'm Mr. Chen from Yingda Technology."
There were three policemen in the car, one driving, and two surrounding him on the left and right. After hearing this, the one on the left said "oh" and the one on the right answered the phone indifferently.
Yingda Technology is one of the top companies in the industry, with tens of thousands of employees across its various branches. As a major taxpayer, it maintains excellent relations with the local government. Seeing the two young police officers' lack of tact, he was about to mention that he and the mayor of Hai City often play golf together and that their families are planning a marriage alliance when the officer on his left put down his phone and said to the officer on his right, "A prisoner just said his uncle is the mayor of Hai City."
The right side said: "Is he?"
The man on the left said, "Regardless of whether it's true or not, this is a crime and he should be executed if necessary. No matter how much you joke, you can't joke with the law."
The person on the right sneered, "Who says it's not true? There are always some people who think they can do whatever they want just because they have some connections. Compared to the state apparatus, those connections are nothing!"
Mr. Chen swallowed his saliva unconsciously, but still found it unbelievable. No matter what, Yingda Technology was closely related to people's lives. He had spent a lot of money to open up trade routes and smooth relations over the years. How dare these people arrest him without any evidence? How dare they!
"I don't know what crime I committed, so why are you arresting me?"
The police officer on the left finally looked him in the eye and uttered a few words, "Endangering public safety."
"Impossible!" Mr. Chen blurted out. Yingda Technology was such a large business, having monopolized resources across numerous industries over the years. He himself doubted the claim of a clean operation. As he was being dragged into the car, he thought of countless charges, but none of them could possibly include endangering public safety. Mr. Chen's mind was dark, and upon realizing what was happening, he immediately felt that he had offended someone incredibly powerful. He was being tricked.
But he thought about it and decided that if he had to say who he had offended recently, it was only a shabby amusement park. However, the action was only taken last night, and there was no result to see today. Even if that shabby amusement park really had the technology to bypass those middlemen and catch him directly, it was impossible for the police to react so quickly, and it was even more impossible that no one had tipped him off in advance!
Considering all the setbacks he had encountered today, he felt something was not right. Could it be that he had not checked thoroughly beforehand and there really was a big shot behind that shabby amusement park?
Mr. Chen didn't show any change on the surface, but he was already lively inside. It turned out that the other party also relied on connections, which made sense.
So after being taken to the police station, he said leisurely: "I'll wait for my lawyer to come. I won't say anything before then."
The interrogator glanced at him and said, "It's okay if you don't tell me. We've gathered all the witnesses and evidence. Just sign and fingerprint."
Mr. Chen's eyes widened. "You...you made a procedural error! I want to see your director."
He habitually put on the airs of the CEO of Inda Technology, but the interrogator in front of him was already impatient and shoved the confession in front of him, saying, "Sign it quickly! Don't waste our time."
As they were talking, another middle-aged man was brought in and passed by the interrogation room. Mr. Chen recognized the voice and glanced sideways, startled. "Isn't that Mr. Zhao from the Great Group? What crime has he committed?"
Mr. Zhao also shouted at this time: "What have I done wrong? Why can't I see a lawyer? I'm telling you! Your director was in my bed last night..."
With a bang, Mr. Zhao's voice stopped abruptly, leaving only splattered blood and white brain matter on the spot.
Mr. Chen's eyes almost popped out of his head. He was so frightened that he covered his chest and gasped for breath. His fat belly was shaking so much that even his clothes could hardly cover it.
The interrogator opposite him waited for him to calm down while slowly smoking a cigarette, looking as if he was used to it.
Mr. Chen, however, fell into great fear, because Mr. Zhao's wealth and status were almost the same as his. The only difference was that he was in the mobile phone and game business, while Mr. Zhao was in the food processing business. Such a prominent figure had not even been convicted in court. How dare they... How dare they!
Mr. Chen felt as if the world had suddenly become magical, and he even doubted he would leave this interrogation room today. He no longer had the composure and the air of a boss. He asked cautiously, "What did Mr. Zhao do wrong?"
The interrogator drawled, "Endangering public safety."
With a bang, Mr. Chen fell backwards. The chair in the interrogation room could not bear his weight and fell to the ground with him, his legs facing up in the air.
The "interrogator" tutted and said into the headset, "It's time to upgrade the chairs in the station."
Not long after, Mr. Chen, who had been awakened, trembled as he signed a confession. He asked hesitantly, "This... can only be considered an attempted crime, right? The maximum sentence is three years, right?"
The interrogator said, "Not bad, you know the law well."
Chief Chen laughed dryly, not daring to answer. Before today, he would never have imagined himself groveling before an ordinary police officer.
Soon after, the "interrogator" emerged with the confession, taking off his outer police uniform as he walked, revealing a uniform of a different color underneath. It had a crisp silhouette, tightly-fitting cuffs, and a star and dagger icon on the chest—the uniform of the Special Operations Management Department.
As soon as he walked out, someone took the confession letter from his hand and said to him, "Captain Song, the autopsy of Zhao Xiangdong's body has been completed, and all the remains have been cleared out."
Zhao Xiangdong is the Mr. Zhao who was shot in front of Mr. Chen not long ago.
Captain Song asked, "What did he say before about his relationship with Director Cao?"
The team member's face turned a little strange when he heard this, and he whispered, "A few years ago, Zhao Xiangdong got into trouble. To get out of it, he found a beautiful woman to bribe Director Cao... Later, he found out that Director Cao was a homosexual, so he went to have sex with her himself."
Captain Song: ...
He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Has Director Cao checked?"
The team member said: "It has also been sent to the dissection table."
Captain Song nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look."
They turned a corridor in front and unlocked a secret room with their fingerprints. In the secret room, besides two dissected bodies, there was also a mass of flesh trapped in a glass box, twisting constantly.
The thing was disgusting. The team member next to him took one look and looked away. He continued, "It's called a parasitic crab. It's not very aggressive and is spread through sexual intercourse. The person infected will transform into a one-meter-tall black crab within two weeks. It's disgusting and smelly, but you can't tell until it's completely transformed. There weren't any in China originally. Zhao Xiangdong brought one back with him when he returned from abroad a few days ago. The people he came into contact with are being investigated, and we should have news soon."
Captain Song nodded. While they were talking, the ball of meat in the glass box had turned into a black crab, covered with a layer of light black mist. But if you looked closely, it looked like an ordinary crab, just a little weird.
"Over at Fantasyland, what does it say?"
The team member said: "The orders from above are the same as before, don't worry about it."
***
The next day, a scandal broke out at Yingda Technology Company. The founder, Mr. Chen, bribed five people including Liu and Zhang to throw snakes into Fantasy Park. Now Mr. Chen has been arrested and admitted to the crime.
As soon as the news came out, the stock price of Yingda Technology Company plummeted, to the point that even eight horses couldn't pull it back.
Netizens were also very sad.
"What's going on these days? The melon fields are so dense that there aren't enough wild animals to feed them."
"Emmm... I've long known that real-life business wars aren't anything fancy, but I thought things like power outages and grabbing company seals were limited to small businesses fighting each other. I never expected a group as large as Yingda Technology to resort to such tactics."
"Fortunately, I had foresight. After confirming that the holograms in Fantasy Park were real, I quickly sold my shares. A company like Yingda Technology, with its outdated technology, will definitely not last long."
In the fantasy park, Chi Yizheng was also confused when he saw the official announcement early in the morning.
"What's going on? I haven't even used the method I thought of to deal with Yingda Technology yet, why was he suddenly arrested?" Chi Yizhen was very surprised. "Are the authorities so fast?"
【Isn’t it better soon? 】
Chi Yizhen shook his head: "It's not that it's bad, it's just that I feel like there's something wrong here."
Yesterday, he was still thinking about exposing the other party's transaction records for hiring water army, but he didn't expect the official to suddenly announce the IP location. This is nothing, maybe it was just a matter of time, but when Mr. Chen from Yingda Technology was caught so quickly, he immediately sensed something was wrong.
"Yugi, isn't that strange? Honestly, I'm a hologram, so the authorities should have noticed it long ago! But no one's come looking for me yet. Isn't that unusual?"
So, are you guys done with your plans for today?
Chi Yizheng choked and immediately remembered the contents of the schedule. He resigned himself to his fate and put on the identities of Sal and Chi Xiaozhen to go out and improve his image.
Fortunately, the game has opened a new function that allows him to do two things at the same time, otherwise he would not be able to finish setting the personalities of the two cards until his eldest son and his daughter came out to run wild.
During this period, he also visited the tree spirits' base and discussed the work content with the leader, Navia. Before he knew it, two days had passed.
Early in the morning on the third day, the children's area of Fantasy Park began operations. The total ticket price remained unchanged, but children's tickets were half price.
The author has something to say:
Chi Yizhen: Where are the officials? Give us some feedback!
Official: Quiet as a chicken.
