Those outside who were breaking the mechanisms were completely unaware that the secret vault was now completely entangled by dense green vines, so there were no casualties when they detonated it.
The moment the sturdy wall that had been blocking the way was smashed open, the dense green vines withered and turned into dust, leaving no trace except for a small clump of dust-like residue.
Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue could no longer contain themselves. The moment the wall was opened, they rushed in, eager to see what was inside.
Looking at the damaged wall, Old Master Qin sighed inwardly.
Ye Weiwei could tell he was upset, so she gave Qin Xiao a wink.
Qin Xiao coughed lightly and said to Old Master Qin, "It's a mess in there, like a dungeon. Let's finish this quickly and go home to rest!"
Grandpa Qin glared at Qin Xiao, annoyed: "Can't you say something nice to coax me?"
Qin Xiao snorted: "You're so old and still acting all high and mighty! My three little brats aren't even as good as you!"
Old Master Qin was so angry he wanted to give this brat a good beating.
However, his annoyance dissipated after being interrupted like that, and he said to Lai Xueming, "Go and find it quickly, see what incredible treasure is hidden in my family's secret vault that has so many of you keeping you up at night! Hurry up, don't keep me from going home to take care of my grandson!"
Lai Xueming was so angry that his back teeth ached. This old man was making veiled insults, and he couldn't be fooled!
"Impossible! This is impossible!" Before Lai Xueming could even look, Qin Zhenyue's incredulous shout came from the secret vault, his voice tinged with madness, "Qin Zhenyuan, where did you hide everything? You must have hidden everything!"
Qin Zhenyue ran towards Old Master Qin while shouting, but he tripped over some gravel on the road and bumped into something. A stone fell from above and hit him right on the head.
Everyone present was stunned. When they came to their senses, Qin Zhenyue was already lying in a pool of blood, lifeless, with only his eyes wide open and a twisted, unwilling hatred on his face.
"Third Brother!" Qin Zhenshan was terrified, running out in a panic. He stood outside the wall, wailing as he looked at Qin Zhenyue, who was just a wall away from him: "How could this happen! How could this happen... Third Brother..."
Qin Zhenyuan hadn't expected such a sudden turn of events. Watching Qin Zhenyue die in front of him, he sighed softly.
Those around them couldn't help but sigh at the sight.
Minister Lin snorted coldly, looking at Lai Xueming meaningfully: "Heaven's sins can be forgiven, but self-inflicted sins are unforgivable! This is the consequence of insatiable greed. Director Lai, what do you say?"
Lai Xueming snorted coldly: "It was just an accident!"
Ye Weiwei looked at Lai Xueming with a half-smile: "Director Lai, I wonder if you have investigated the matter of our family's hidden treasures yet?"
Lai Xueming's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He looked at Ye Weiwei and said sarcastically, "This is all thanks to Comrade Ye's help. The investigation has been completed, and the allegations are false. You're all fine now."
After saying that, he glared angrily at Qin Zhenshan and Qin Zhenyue on the ground, and said to his men who had followed him, "Fall back, let's go!"
Qin Xiao shouted, "Wait!"
Then, the soldiers he brought immediately stepped forward and surrounded Lai Xueming and his men.
Lai Xueming's heart sank, but he looked at Qin Xiao with great impatience: "What else do you want?"
Qin Xiao sneered: "You come and go as you please? What do you take us Qin family members for?"
Lai Xueming angrily said, "What happened tonight was a misunderstanding. Now that it has been investigated and clarified, what else do you want?"
Qin Xiao walked up to Lai Xueming, kicked Lai Xueming's fat body four or five meters away, then stepped on Lai Xueming's chest, looking down at him and saying, "What do I want? I want to kill you, you bastard!"
Lai Xueming was in pain, angry, and scared. He looked at Qin Xiao in horror, never dreaming that Qin Xiao would dare to attack him in front of so many people. He said with a fierce but weak voice, "Qin Xiao, don't be so presumptuous just because you have some military merits. Let me tell you, you had better release me right now, or don't blame me for being impolite!"
Qin Xiao glanced at Lai Xueming with disdain, then looked up at Ye Weiwei and his expression immediately changed. His voice was filled with obvious grievance, like a child complaining to his parents: "Honey, he threatened me. He said he would be rude to me!"
The soldiers who were controlling the various committees were dumbfounded when they saw their usually stern and unsmiling regimental commander, known as the "Living Yama," suddenly change his expression. They wondered if they were hallucinating.
Ye Weiwei suppressed the urge to roll her eyes and desperately controlled the twitching corners of her mouth, saying in a deep voice, "Then kill him!"
Qin Xiao received the order: "Received!"
After saying that, he kicked the lump of fat at his feet and pointed the gun at Lai Xueming's head: "You bastard, your death is near!"
Lai Xueming was terrified by Qin Xiao and Ye Weiwei's words. Staring at the dark muzzle of the gun, he screamed in terror, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me! Spare me! Please don't kill me!"
Qin Xiao coldly looked at Lai Xueming, who was kneeling and begging for mercy, and said disdainfully, "You've been in various committees for so many years, and many people have begged you for mercy, right? How did you treat them? The net of heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it. You bastard, you never thought you'd have this day!"
Ye Weiwei yawned: "Alright, hand him over to Director Zhao. Don't get your hands dirty."
Director Zhao, standing to the side: He deserved to have his hands dirty.
However, when he saw the file bag containing evidence of Lai Xueming's crimes handed to him by Ye Weiwei, he immediately beamed with joy.
What do you mean by dirty hands!
It's all something that the police should do!
They put on these uniforms to rid the people of evil; all the dirty and hard work is theirs, and they'll fight anyone who tries to take it from them!
I've disliked that bastard Lai Xueming for a long time, and now that bastard has finally fallen into my hands!
Comrade Ye even prepared the evidence; it's practically handing him the credit!
Too many people were arrested this time, and the police were not enough to handle them. Director Zhao asked Minister Lin to come with him to take the people away.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to return the favor, pointing to Qin Zhenshan, who was crying miserably on the ground, and said in a very dramatic performance of brotherly affection: "This person's malicious reporting is serious and constitutes a crime. What do you plan to do with him?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Zhenshan immediately stumbled to Old Master Qin's side, pleading, "Brother, please spare my life! I can't go to jail, or my whole life will be ruined... Brother... please forgive me this time..."
