Feeling abandoned by everyone, Wang Xiaoping devoted all her time to studying. If it weren't for the impending college entrance exam, moving to the dormitory wouldn't have been worthwhile, and she probably wouldn't even have gone home. Sadly, this state of mind only ended on Tuesday morning, when she was taken away from school by the police. Her arrest caused a lot of discussion throughout the school. Wang Xiaoping was such a master of pretense, portraying herself as a well-off lady from a prominent family. She would occasionally let slip details about her grandfather and the powerful positions her two uncles held. She would also flaunt the clothes and jewelry she'd stolen from Liang Yiyi in front of her classmates, making her classmates feel superior. Normally, no one dared to mess with her, but now, with such a powerful background, she was still being arrested by the police. What kind of crime had she committed?
Wang Xiaoping burst into tears when she was taken to the police station. No matter how calculating and thoughtful she was, she would lose her mind when faced with something like this. But even now, after being taken to the police station, she still had hope. Hou Jie had escaped, so it must not be that the incident had been discovered. But she hadn't done anything else besides this one incident, so why were these police officers arresting her?
It turned out that at six o'clock last night, Hou Jie had been escorted back to Beijing by police from Province M. City police immediately interrogated him, but Hou Jie knew that if he confessed, he would be charged with murder, which would carry a sentence, so he kept his mouth shut and refused to say anything. Several police officers interrogated him, but none were able to extract any meaningful confession from him. This morning, Liang Wenlong and Director Zhang learned of this while conducting their investigation. They then brought a recording of the interrogation to the detention room where Hou Jie was being held.
Hou Jie couldn't help but feel smug in his heart as he watched the police helpless against him! Then, early in the morning, another young man came in. This man was obviously not a police officer. He didn't say a word after entering. He just sat in a chair and stared at him. The sinister look in his eyes really made Hou Jie feel uneasy. Hou Jie was afraid of revealing his identity, so he forced himself to remain calm and said, "You, who are you? Can anyone do this interrogation work? Or can anyone enter the interrogation room? I'm telling you, I didn't do anything. Let me go immediately, or I'll sue you for illegal detention."
At this time, Liang Wenlong said: "Huh, you want to go out? Well, if you still want to go out after listening to this, I will go and handle the procedures for you immediately.
Hou Jie was so happy when he heard that he could be released immediately. If he had known he could get out by suing them, he would have said so long ago. He had never expected this young man to have so much power! He was just thinking about it when a recording came into his ears. It mentioned his name. Hou Jie listened carefully to the result, but his face darkened as he listened. When he heard the end, he collapsed in the interrogation chair.
"President, that guy named Hou Jie called and told his brothers that he's out of money and wants us to give him some more. He said that as long as we give him the money, he will leave the country immediately. The brothers below asked me to give him the money or not."
"How much money did we spend on him last time? He still dares to ask us for money? He can't even handle such a small matter, and he dares to ask us for money again? He really is tired of living!"
"So what do you mean, President?"
"This kind of greedy person will never keep his word. If you give him money this time, he will find a thousand reasons to ask you for money next time."
"Then I'll send someone over to kill him right away, so we don't have to worry about it any more."
"Call him first and calm him down. Otherwise, if he realizes something's wrong and runs away, that'll be terrible. Running away isn't a big deal, but if he runs to the police station and bites us, that'll be troublesome."
"Okay, I'll call him now."
"Hello, is this Mr. Hou? Where are you now? Okay, I'll hang up first. I'll send my trusted confidant to give you the money later. Just wait where you are and wait for our people to arrive."
………………
"Lan Li, go to Province M. I'll send the address right away. Find Hou Jie and do it cleanly."
………………
After the recording was finished, Liang Wenlong said with a cold face: "If you want to leave now, I can help you with the formalities immediately, but I can't guarantee whether you will be alive tomorrow. The person you injured has recovered. If you explain what happened clearly, it will be at most attempted murder. And if you take the initiative to confess the mastermind, you can become a tainted witness and make meritorious contributions. You have two paths to choose from. I think you will definitely not take the path that only a fool would take, right?" After that, he turned around and walked out of the interrogation room without caring about Hou Jie's reaction.
Hou Jie wasn't stupid. He was actually smarter than most. He didn't have to think about it for long before he made his decision. He confessed everything. He knew he'd get a few years in prison at most, but if he walked out of the police station like that, he'd be dead. So he shouted at the camera, "Someone, come quickly. I have something to confess."
In reality, Liang Wenlong was so certain Hou Jie would confess honestly because, firstly, he had the recording; no one could remain indifferent after hearing someone was trying to kill them. Secondly, Hou Jie was isolated from the news and didn't know the assassins had all been apprehended. Even Morita, who was monitoring Liang Wenyu at Shengshi, and Lan Li, who was trying to leave for Province M, had been apprehended. Liang Wenlong knew this, as did the police interrogating him. But so what? No one was foolish enough to tell Hou Jie the truth.
In the interrogation room, Hou Jie quickly told everything he knew, and he was afraid that he might have missed something and would not be able to redeem himself for meritorious service, so he explained all the details clearly.
It turned out that Hou Jie met one of Sato's men by chance. That man was named Wei Yuan. Knowing that Hou Jie was an orphan, he wanted to use him to kill Liang Yiyi. Of course, he did not tell Hou Jie the truth, but just said that as long as Hou Jie helped him accomplish something, he would give him 500,000 after the task was completed. At first, Hou Jie did not agree, but he was short of money, and Hou Jie, who could not resist the temptation, finally agreed.
Long before Ryoda Shinji planned to take action against Liang Yiyi's family, he had thoroughly investigated their relatives and friends. Therefore, Wei Yuan instructed Hou Jie to approach Wang Xiaoping and, exploiting her jealousy, persuade her to provide information. Hou Jie then tricked Wang Xiaoping into revealing the conflict between her and Liang Yiyi, then, under the guise of wanting to vent her anger, made Liang Yiyi disappear. Wang Xiaoping hesitated for several days before finally providing him with useful information, which he immediately shared with Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan then instructed him to deliberately stir up trouble in a bar, then take advantage of the chaos to kill Liang Yiyi, creating the appearance of an accident.
