Chapter 151 The Mastermind Revealed
He Feng lowered his head, with a flash of guilt in his eyes: "Sir, Madam, I'm sorry, it's He Feng who has betrayed your trust."
If you ask yourself honestly, during all these years in the Ji family, the Ji family has never treated him unfairly.
Now that his identity was exposed, he not only did not feel scared, but instead felt a sense of relief.
Shang Yuze had no expression on his face: "Whose orders are you following? Tell me and I can spare your life."
The man's tone was cold as ice.
He Feng pursed his lips and said nothing.
Ji Yuan saw through his thoughts at a glance and frowned, "Did he take control of your family?"
He Feng's originally calm face stiffened for a moment.
Shang Yuze took in his reaction, and the man spoke slowly.
"In fact, even if you are dead, I can still follow the clues to find your family. Now that I have found your family, will I be able to follow this clue to find your family?"
"Don't you think the people behind this can't see this? They still have value while you're alive, but once you're dead, they'll be worthless."
"Not only is it worthless, but there's also the danger of exposing the identity of the person behind it at any time. If it were you, would you keep such a ticking time bomb?"
Shang Yuze slowly analyzed the pros and cons with him, his eyes always observing his reaction.
After hearing what he said, He Feng's eyes began to become flustered.
Yes, if he really died, could his family really escape?
In order to clear himself of any involvement, he might kill to silence the witness.
Gu Qingyue also joined in, continuing to wear down his psychological defenses.
"You've been in the Ji family for at least twenty years. You should know what kind of people my parents are. As long as you tell us everything you know, you might be able to redeem yourself for your crimes."
He Feng raised his head, the panic in his eyes was replaced by rationality and calmness, he looked at Gu Qingyue.
"That's a nice thing to say. Now that you've caught me, you should have guessed it. It was indeed me who caused the young lady's disappearance."
"I've separated you from your family for nearly twenty years. Will you let me go?"
He had some talent in programming since he was a child, but his family was poor, he had many brothers and sisters, and his family members were sick. He dropped out of school after junior high school. Without any systematic training, his hacking skills were neither good nor bad. He originally just took some orders online to supplement his family income.
Until one day someone found him and asked him to go to the Ji family as an insider and help him pay for his family's medical expenses.
Looking at his seriously ill father lying in bed, his hard-working mother, and his brothers and sisters dressed in tattered clothes, he agreed.
His meeting with Ji Yuan and Shi Xici was also a setup. In order to avoid being noticed, he started working in that restaurant a year in advance.
During this period, the man gave him a large sum of money, all in cash. He had never seen so much money before. The man told him not to tell anyone and not to take out too much at one time.
This money saved his family, and that person was his benefactor. So when that person asked him to help Gu Qingyue away by colluding with others, he did it even though he knew it was wrong.
After all, he was just an ordinary person, and it was too easy for that person to kill his family.
Between his family and his employer, he chose his family.
If he had to do it again, even if he knew the outcome, he would still do it.
Gu Qingyue said nonchalantly, "If I say I won't pursue this matter at all, then you won't believe me. But every wrong has its perpetrator, and the one who is truly responsible for this matter is the one who planned it all."
"You're just a pawn. It's useless for me to target you."
Even if it wasn't He Feng, it would have been someone else. When a knife kills someone, the one to be held accountable is not the knife, but the person holding the knife.
He Feng's eyes flashed, and he felt a little shaken.
Ji Yanzhi's eyes were sharp: "The more you consider, the more danger your family will be in."
Shang Yuze crossed his long legs, his handsome features exuding a stern aura. "Although I'm not a good person, I won't take human life lightly. But your master may not be so."
Several people sang in unison, using threats and inducements, and successfully frightened He Feng.
He Feng asked tentatively: "Is what you said true?"
By listening to his words, everyone knew that he had been shaken.
Gu Qingyue opened her red lips slightly: "It's absolutely true."
"I can die, but I hope you can let my family go." He Feng no longer expects to survive, he just hopes not to implicate his family.
Ji Yuan made him a promise: "I promise you."
The disaster will not affect the whole family. Now we live in a society ruled by law. How could we possibly engage in collective punishment?
He Feng gritted his teeth and revealed the person behind the scenes: "It's... Minister Xiao."
The Ministry of National Defense is mainly responsible for the formulation of national defense policies and the allocation of military resources, and its position in Country C is also very important.
The current Secretary of Defense can be regarded as President Trump's right-hand man. The two worked together when they were young and have a very good relationship.
When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked, except Ji Yuan of course. He lowered his brows slightly, as he was quite expecting this result.
After all, Shi Yanci had told him a few years ago that Xiao Ce might have had second thoughts.
It's just that there has been no evidence, so he has been kept until today.
"When the eldest lady disappeared, it was he who asked me to do it. I turned off the surveillance in advance, and I was also the one who drugged the bodyguard." He Feng told everything he had done, hoping to mitigate his guilt.
Whenever Shi Xici thought of the nineteen years that Gu Qingyue had spent wandering outside, she wished she could tear Xiao Ce into pieces. She gritted her teeth and said, "Xiao Ce went to so much trouble to steal my daughter, just to abandon her?"
There must be another purpose behind this.
Otherwise, why would Xiao Ce go to so much trouble to secretly steal Gu Qingyue?
He Feng thought for a moment and said, "He originally wanted to use the eldest lady to threaten the Ji family and the Presidential Palace because he wanted to be president, but he was afraid of being found by you in Country C, so he wanted to send the eldest lady abroad."
"At the time, the Ji family and the Presidential Palace were pursuing the young lady strictly, and it was difficult to send her away. Minister Xiao then ordered her to come up with a plan: smuggling her away."
Even if the president and the Ji family have long arms, they cannot reach abroad, and the world is so big. As long as he doesn't say anything, how easy is it to find a baby who has just turned one year old?
After all, babies have no ability to resist and know everything. How many people would pay attention if an adult held them in their arms? Once they were drugged, they would naturally behave themselves.
He Feng said, "He handed the matter over to his two trusted confidants. Unexpectedly, the police seized the ship that day. Fearing they would be discovered, they hid the young lady."
"It was only half an hour before they went to check again and found that the young lady was gone."
There are all kinds of people on the smuggling ship, so it is not surprising that there are human traffickers.
