Lu Tian's expression turned serious, unlike anything he had ever shown before. "Lu Yi, I've brought Old Liu back for you today. Now, tell Old Liu in detail what you've discovered recently!"
Lu Yi nodded, and then told Liu Qiong all about his recent discoveries. Liu Qiong's expression remained unchanged as he listened, but he occasionally glanced at Wu Shan and the others in the room.
After Lu Yi finished speaking, Liu Qiong did not give them time to pause and looked directly at Qingye, saying, "Children, you have been wronged. We will definitely punish the sinners and avenge you!"
Also, Lu Yi just said you've found the ledger, right? Can you give it to me?
Upon hearing Liu Qiong's solemn promise, Qingye couldn't help but shed tears. He choked back sobs as he pulled out the account book from his pocket and handed it to Liu Qiong.
Liu Qiong held the account book, feeling its warmth and silky smoothness. He paused, wondering what kind of tension this child must have been under to steal it...
Thinking of this, Liu Qiong seemed to see endless evil through these thin ledgers. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he carefully flipped through the ledgers.
He read it very carefully, word by word. During the reading, no one spoke, and even breathing was barely audible.
Liu Qiong looked at it for a very long time. After he finished, he placed the ledger on the table with trembling hands. He felt as if a breath of pent-up anger was stuck in his chest, making it hard to breathe.
Seeing this, Yan Ning quickly stepped forward and pressed down on him a few times, and Liu Qiong finally felt a little better.
He trembled as he took a few deep breaths, "We...we failed in our duty!"
Yan Ning didn't let go of his hand, but instead took his pulse. "I know you're angry, but you still need to calm down first."
Your health is already failing. You took a toll on your body during those years in the countryside, and then you worked day and night after coming back. You're practically draining your life force!
Liu Qiong waved his hand, "I know all that you're saying, but look at all this, do you think I can stay calm?"
Yan Ning sighed, released his hand, and slowly sat back down in her seat.
Liu Qiong paused for a moment, then glared at Lu Tian. "You wanted to tell me about this during that meeting before, didn't you? Why didn't you say so then?"
Lu Tian calmly said, "You're being watched by so many eyes every day, how am I supposed to know if there aren't any Yamamoto spies around you? If you hadn't secretly come to me with your men today, I wouldn't have said anything."
"You!" Liu Qiong was speechless.
"Besides! Can I just say something like that without evidence? Even I couldn't believe it at the time." Lu Tian sighed.
Liu Qiong knew this principle, but he was just angry because he didn't know that the capital had been corrupted by so many parasites!
Liu Qiong stood up, and everyone else followed suit. Looking at Wu Shan standing in the center of the room, he said coldly, "We'll talk about your matter later. Lu Ting, Yan Wu!"
"Here!" the two replied loudly.
Liu Qiong immediately issued the order, "Now, you will each go to your respective teams to gather enough men to surround the eastern suburbs."
Remember, the operation must be kept secret, and no one can be let escape!
"yes!"
The night was almost over, and dawn was approaching...
