Zhang Fan's voice was extremely faint, carrying an icy aura, just like the cold ice of two years ago.
“The Zheng family has always been involved in the human trafficking business. They sell pretty women to KTVs, bars, and red-light districts, while ordinary women are sold to people in the mountains to be wives.”
“Children are sold to families who cannot have children, or to gangs that force children to beg.”
Zheng Qiu almost cried out, "You...you have no evidence!"
Zhang Fan smiled slightly, took out his phone, and showed an email: "Is this what you mean?"
Zheng Qiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and she said incredulously, "How is this possible? This must be fake."
Zhang Fan smiled slightly: "What era are we living in? Don't you know how to make backups?"
Zheng Qiu's eyes widened in fury: "You're lying to me, you must be lying to me!"
Zhang Fan put a finger to his lips, making a shushing gesture, and whispered, "Listen, the police car is coming to arrest you."
"Drip-drip-drip-"
The sirens grew louder as they approached, and a wave of immense fear washed over Zheng Qiu. His chest tightened, and he could hardly breathe again.
He probed, "That email of yours was fake; you were lying to me, weren't you?"
Zhang Fan's lips curled into a harmless smile: "I really didn't have a backup."
Zheng Qiu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Zheng family didn't fall, they would definitely find a way to save him.
However, Zhang Fan's words instantly plunged him into despair: "I was busy at the time, so I had someone else back it up for me."
When Zhang Fan was treating Zhao Lin, he noticed that Zhao Lin's family had a computer and borrowed it for a while.
Plug in the USB drive and Zhang Fan saw numerous signs of his daughter's abuse, evidence of a company evading taxes, and screenshots of chat logs.
When Zhang Fan saw these records, he instantly pieced together the evidence of the Zheng family's crimes.
So he immediately copied these things to his email. When Chen Yao talked to him, he asked Ji Zhi to help him back them up.
The Zheng family trafficked people and used a real estate company to launder money. The company even evaded taxes. Zheng Qiu had witnessed his parents beating and scolding the traffickers since he was a child. He was influenced by what he saw and heard and even derived great pleasure from abusing others.
From then on, he enjoyed the feeling of torturing others.
However, he still had to pretend to be normal on the surface. Shen Ping was just a cover for him, and her eyes, which were full of desire for money, were very easy to manipulate.
But gradually, he realized that Shen Ping's ambitions were too great, so he began to consider breaking up with her.
Unexpectedly, Shen Ping secretly went to his study, stole these videos, and used them to threaten him.
When he learned of this, he flew into a rage, grabbed Shen Ping by the neck, and demanded that she hand over the evidence.
Although Shen Ping was scared, she stubbornly insisted that the evidence had been given to a trusted friend, and that if anything happened to her, the contents would be exposed immediately.
Having no other option, Zheng Qiu could only feign compliance with Shen Ping and deceive her in an attempt to find Shen Ping's friend.
However, after investigating for so long, he still didn't know who Shen Ping's friends were, so he guessed that Shen Ping was lying to him.
However, Shen Ping did indeed have evidence of his family's crimes, so he had no choice but to swallow his pride and stay by Shen Ping's side to find that evidence.
No matter how much they planned, they never expected that the evidence would be hidden in the pendants on Shen Ping's hands and feet.
This thing was right under my nose, who would have thought that the USB drive was shaped like a pendant?
After Zheng Qiu was injured that day, his body couldn't take it and he fainted. When he woke up, he immediately told his family about the USB drive.
While searching for the USB drive, the Zheng family also sent people to the police station to gather information. They learned that no one had reported it to the police recently, so they assumed that Zhang Fan had not seen the USB drive at all and had become reckless after getting it.
Zheng Qiu beat Xiao Hei not only to vent his anger, but also to lure Zhang Fan.
The original plan was to torture Xiao Hei to death, then send someone to lure Zhang Fan to the house, so that Zhang Fan could be accused of burglary and robbery, and he could kill Zhang Fan on the grounds of self-defense.
But to my surprise, Zhang Fan came knocking on my door so quickly.
Even now, Zheng Qiu still doesn't quite believe that Zhang Fan really called the police.
He thought it was just the sound of a police car passing by when suddenly the doorbell rang overhead.
Bai Rou'er glanced at Zhang Fan, and after receiving an affirmative answer, she quickly ran out to open the door.
Upon receiving the reply, Bai Rou'er ran to open the door, followed by a flurry of footsteps.
Zhang Fan sneered: "Oh right, I forgot something."
Zheng Qiuben was filled with immense fear when he heard Zhang Fan's words. He suddenly looked up and saw Zhang Fan's long legs kick him hard. He flew backward, crashed into the wall, and bounced to the ground.
Excruciating pain throughout his body, as if his internal organs had shifted, caused Zheng Qiu to cough up a mouthful of blood.
His vision gradually blurred, and only one thought remained in his mind: he was going to die, and he would soon be free.
However, Zhang Fan put his two fingers together, and no one could see a wisp of golden spiritual energy. It transformed into a needle-sized object and pierced into a certain acupoint of Zheng Qiu.
In an instant, Zheng Qiu felt his five senses amplified, and the pain in his body was hundreds or thousands of times greater than before. He was in so much pain that he couldn't scream, the veins in his neck bulged, and his whole body was spasming.
He desperately wanted to die.
Zheng Qiu banged his head against the wall, trying to commit suicide.
Suddenly, someone pressed down on his head and he heard a stern voice: "Zheng Qiu, you're under arrest!"
Zheng Qiu looked up and saw a group of uniformed police officers with guns pointed at his head.
"Kill me! Kill me!" Zheng Qiu yelled at the man with the gun, grinning maliciously and revealing his bloodied teeth, looking extremely pathetic.
He was held down, and every pore on his body felt like it was being gnawed by ants. Then salt and chili were sprinkled on his wounds, making him wish he were dead from the pain.
