Chapter 78: Summit Turn Qin Xiao: I am a good person!
Caught off guard, Lin Yaoxian was thrown out, his lower jaw twisted, and several bloody teeth popped out of his mouth. He was still a little dazed when he hit the inner wall of the elevator.
Sizzle—the rising elevator made a harsh friction sound.
The severe pain that irritated his nerves turned the confusion in Lin Yaoxian's eyes into raging rage, but then a large hand like an iron hoop pressed down on his head.
"You talk too much nonsense." Li Ming's cold voice sounded in his ears.
Lin Yaoxian was startled, and suddenly realized that this guy's life level was not right. How could he be an E-level life form! ?
It's not that he is completely powerless to resist, but being in a high position for so long has made him unwilling to take risks. In his opinion, Li Ming has reached the end of his rope.
There is no need for me to fight a life-and-death battle with such a person.
Lin Yaoxian held his breath in his heart and raised his hands to indicate that he had no other intentions.
Li Ming let go of his hand. Lin Yaoxian turned around and twisted his mandible with both hands. There was a click. He moved his mouth and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood foam, but did not speak.
bite--
The elevator door opened and Li Ming walked out first, as if he was not afraid at all that Lin Yaoxian would attack him from behind.
Lin Yaoxian spat out another mouthful of blood foam and walked out.
Unexpectedly, Qin Xiao was waiting outside the office. He Yu lowered his head and said nothing. Xiao Gang and others looked at him coldly.
"Here I come." He looked peaceful, but when he saw the miserable look of Lin Yaoxian behind Li Ming, his expression changed slightly.
"Yaoxian, please wait here for a while." Qin Xiao brought Li Ming into the room.
"Lin Yaoxian is the head of the logistics department after all. If you do this, he will lose face and will make things difficult for you in the future." Qin Xiao said with a hint of sarcasm and helplessness:
"Don't be angry, this isn't directed at you alone. The pressure from above is so strong, there's nothing I can do."
"Minister, there's no need to pretend now." Li Ming spoke with a hint of sarcasm, walked to the table, picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea.
Looking at Li Ming's indifferent look, Qin Xiao's eyes flashed with gloom, and he sighed: "I know this is unfair to you, but after all..."
"Stop..." Li Ming raised his hand and said nonchalantly, "Chen Songnan disappeared, and Xingchuang Company put the blame on you, and they want you to give an explanation."
"You just pushed us all out as scapegoats."
Qin Xiao paused, the expression on his face restrained, and finally became expressionless.
"Don't be so cautious, Minister. I don't have any recording equipment with me." Li Ming shook his head.
"The world is unpredictable." Qin Xiao spoke, walking to the glass window, overlooking the Silver Gray City, and said indifferently: "I have understood this truth for a long time."
"There's another truth: until you have sufficient ability, you must endure any injustice."
"I really wanted to train you, what a pity."
He spoke without missing a single word, as if he had said everything, yet as if he had said nothing.
"Do you have any other wishes?" Qin Xiao was confident of victory. What if Li Ming knew the truth?
"Hmm..." Li Ming pondered for a moment. At this moment, He Yu opened the door in a panic, "Minister, Secretary-General Fan Xiaosu is here with Yang Peng, and there are others."
"Huh!?" Qin Xiao suddenly turned around, his eyes flashing with brilliance. He glanced at Li Ming who was calm, and his eyes became dark and uncertain.
It was naturally impossible to stop him. As He Yuguang finished speaking, he was pushed aside.
Fan Xiaosu walked in wearing high heels, with her big waves covering half of her face.
He was accompanied by his personal bodyguard and several other officials.
"Qin Xiao, you are accused of seventeen crimes including bribery...murder...smuggling. I will temporarily freeze your ministerial power pending investigation." Fan Xiaosu had a calm expression and a slim figure.
Yang Peng behind him gave Li Ming a look. Lin Yaoxian at the door was still a little confused and couldn't figure out what was going on.
Qin Xiao's expression remained unchanged. He looked around at everyone and refuted, "Secretary Fan, you and I are not in the same system at all. What qualifications do you have to freeze my ministerial power?"
Although Qin Xiao seemed servile before, in fact, as a person sent by the Blue Star City Guard Headquarters, he really had nothing to fear as long as the headquarters did not give up on him.
"Based on just a few words from some people, they've accused me of seventeen felonies." Qin Xiao snorted coldly, his eyes fixed on Yang Peng. He turned around, clicked on the terminal on the table, and said in a deep voice, "City guards above the rank of captain, come up and draw your guns!"
Fan Xiaosu's face changed slightly, but he also responded quickly. He opened the smart terminal and a virtual screen popped up. "Why? Just these!"
A large number of pictures, videos and audio materials are refreshed.
Qin Xiao was shocked, with a look of astonishment on his face. His sharp eyes instantly fell on Li Ming, and he was obviously out of control.
How could that information be leaked?!
He was extremely surprised. He had stored all the information in a quantum-encrypted USB flash drive, so how could it end up in the other party's hands?
The person who handled the USB drive held Chen Songnan and Li Ming. Chen Songnan would only threaten him and would not break up with him.
The only possibility is Li Ming, but he understands, how could Li Ming crack it in such a short time?
Combined with Li Ming's attitude just now, he understood that something must have happened in secret that he didn't know about.
The elevator kept running, and Qin Xiao's office was full of people standing outside, some of them looked ferocious, and some looked confused.
"Minister Qin, is there anything else to say? Everyone present here is your subordinate. Do you really have to humiliate them?" Fan Xiaosu said indifferently.
Qin Xiao's expression changed from gloomy to bright, but he finally sighed, "I didn't expect things to come to this. Secretary Fan, you misunderstood."
"Oh?" Fan Xiaosu sneered, wanting to see how Qin Xiao would defend himself in the face of such hard evidence.
"I don't know where you got this information from, but I can only say that this is a necessary sacrifice for me." Qin Xiao looked solemn.
A question mark appeared in everyone's mind?
Sacrifice? You accept bribes and enjoy wealth and luxury, is that a sacrifice?
Only Li Ming was slightly stunned, but then he connected everything Qin Xiao said.
The doubts in his mind were answered, and Li Ming finally understood why Qin Xiao had collected his own criminal information.
Interesting... He curled his lips into a smile, the old fox, worthy of being an old fox, looks three steps ahead.
"What's happening on Silver Ash Star? It's well known, so I won't elaborate." Qin Xiao paced back and forth, a look of sorrow on his face. "The evil forces are deeply entrenched, and the high-ranking officials of Silver Ash City are colluding with them. I came here with such ambition to eradicate it all."
"But it's even more difficult than I imagined. They're adamant and almost impossible to shake. The only thing I can do is wait for the tiger to come and become part of their conspiracy."
"At the same time, I'm secretly collecting information about their crimes. In this situation, I'm inevitably stained with blood, but I can guarantee that I've filed a record of every incident recorded here and reported it to the Blue Star City Guard Headquarters."
Qin Xiao's words were sonorous and rhythmic, and when he finished speaking, everyone looked at each other in surprise.
Yang Peng's face changed drastically and his heart sank to the bottom. Qin Xiao turned himself into an undercover agent?
Lin Yaoxian was dumbfounded, and his admiration for Qin Xiao reached its peak at this moment.
"I don't know who gave you the information or what their intentions were, but I can give you a more complete version." Qin Xiao walked past Li Ming, took out a quantum-encrypted USB drive, and held it in his hand.
"This contains evidence of collusion between the City Management Committee, the three major gangs in the outer city, and the Star Creation Company, as well as criminal evidence against seventeen mid- and high-level government officials!"
In the room, you could hear a pin drop. Some of the city guards outside the room were still confused because they couldn't think straight.
Yang Peng couldn't help but look at Li Ming. Anyone with a little bit of intelligence could guess that this was Qin Xiao's trick.
If it were just the verbal attack just now, it would be too pale and powerless, but with these evidences, the situation is different.
Qin Xiao looked around at everyone, and all he felt was contempt.
He had anticipated this scene a long time ago. Whether it was Xingchuang Company or the three major gangs, he had something on them.
He started setting up this scheme at least five years ago, just to get away with it one day.
"Of course, this is all my personal opinion, and it may be too exaggerated. I will contact Commissioner Chen right away, and he will corroborate my testimony." Qin Xiao continued, and in front of everyone, he turned on the smart terminal.
You're too young to fight me. Qin Xiao looked at Li Ming with no emotion in his heart. It was already good enough to cause him such trouble. Unfortunately...
If you want to get rid of these people, the most important thing is never evidence.
The smart terminal vibrated slightly, and Qin Xiao couldn't wait to say, "Commissioner Chen..."
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted, "Is Secretary-General Fan here?"
Commissioner Chen, one of the members of the City Defense Headquarters, is quite powerful. Even though he is far away in the capital planet, he has a general understanding of the situation here.
"Your Excellency, Commissioner, I'm here." Fan Xiaosu said.
Qin Xiao didn't care at all, with a smile on his face that showed everything was under control.
"I don't endorse anything Qin Xiao said. You can handle the crime he committed and the punishment he received on your own."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Xiao's face froze, as if thunder was exploding in his ears. He stared blankly at the smart terminal in his hand. His face suddenly became distorted, and a tremendous rage accompanied by despair arose.
After so many years of support and spending most of my fortune, how could this happen?!
The pride and arrogance he had just felt now turned into thorns that pierced into his chest and stirred it.
The others were also confused. Just now, seeing Qin Xiao, he looked determined to win, and they really thought that his back-up plan was unmatched. But this was the result?
The situation has reversed again?
Yang Peng breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Ming with a hint of joy. Only then did he realize that Li Ming's expression remained calm, neither sad nor happy, and he didn't seem to be surprised by the result at all.
Commissioner Chen ended the communication without saying a word.
"Qin Xiao, do you have any other questions?" Fan Xiaosu asked calmly. Li Ming noticed that her expression did not change much, as if she had already expected this result.
Qin Xiao looked up, and everyone was startled. His eyes were bloodshot at the moment, and he looked at Li Ming coldly, gritting his teeth and saying, "It's... you!?"
“How did you do that?!”
He couldn't understand why the connections he had accumulated and the plans he had set up with years of hard work had vanished so easily.
How could he influence such a big situation, and who could make Commissioner Chen give up on him without hesitation?
"Minister Qin just said that we have to endure when we don't have the ability. What if we have the ability?" Li Ming leaned against the glass wall and said lightly.
Everyone's eyes fell on him, and their expressions changed slightly.
Although he didn't know why, Minister Qin seemed to think that his downfall was closely related to Li Ming.
"Take him away." Fan Xiaosu ordered. The bodyguard behind him had already prepared everything and was holding two heavy metal blocks.
There was a struggle in Qin Xiao's eyes. Li Ming was alert and paid attention to his movements. After all, he was a D-level life form.
But in the end, Qin Xiao did nothing, and his slightly withered hands fell on the two metal blocks.
With a clicking sound, the mechanical structure spread, climbed up his palm and arm, and finally formed a joint on his back.
Qin Xiao let out a low wail from his throat, staggered, and almost fell to the ground. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and he looked much weaker.
Qin Xiao was being held aside. She turned around and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, everyone. From now on, I will temporarily take over Qin Xiao's position as Minister."
"Also, Yang Peng has been exceptionally promoted to the position of Head of the Internal Affairs Section for his meritorious reporting."
Yang Peng was stunned. He was already... a section chief? It seemed a bit too easy.
"Secretary-General, my colleagues." Li Ming said.
"Don't worry." Fan Xiaosu smiled slightly, his attitude warm: "Everything Qin Xiao did before needs to be investigated, especially in recent times."
"Besides, Sandra also came to me and proved their innocence."
Everyone had strange expressions on their faces, their eyes wandering between Fan Xiaosu and Li Ming. Why did they feel that the secretary-general's attitude towards Li Ming was a little strange?
"Awesome, really awesome..." Old Yao, who was at the edge of the room, raised his finger secretly.
Yang Peng narrowed his eyes and smelled a different scent.
"Also, things are not over yet. If the information here is true, everyone will be busy." Fan Xiaosu held the USB flash drive that Qin Xiao took out in his hand.
Qin Xiao uttered a "huh" sound, and his cheek twitched. "It's all for naught! It's all for naught!"
Fan Xiaosu's action was not over yet. He contacted the Sixth Patrol Fleet on the spot and asked them to send people to assist Silver Ash City in its next action.
There is no doubt that this will be a big purge.
Until everyone left, it was still a little unbelievable that Qin Xiao had become a prisoner?
The sky of Silver Ash City has changed just like that?
"Of course." Old Yao suddenly burst into laughter, attracting a lot of attention. "Need I ask? The Secretary-General must have taken a fancy to my brother."
Yang Peng's face darkened as he shouted, "Yao Guang!"
"Hey, Yang Ke, what do you want me to do?" Old Yao came running over happily.
Only Fan Xiaosu and Li Ming were left in Qin Xiao's office.
This intellectual young woman sat in Qin Xiao's seat. Her facial features were delicate and beautiful, and her loose, wavy hair added a touch of charm to her cold and arrogant temperament.
"Professor Wu is a man of few words. After Yang Peng sent the evidence, I called him right away. He told me to proceed with confidence. He still remembers you and knows you are Yang Peng's nephew." Fan Xiaosu's pretty face was full of seriousness.
“There are very few people who can be remembered by Wu.”
It seems that the other party didn't know his specific situation either, and just thought he was lucky to be remembered by Professor Wu.
The two chatted for a few words, and he saw that Fan Xiaosu wanted to see him off, so he took the initiative to leave. Before leaving, he said, "Secretary-General, can you give me the permissions for those advanced training rooms?"
He originally had one, but later Qin Xiao locked him up again.
"no problem."
Li Ming walked out of the office and glanced at He Yu. He found that He Yu's seat was empty, but he didn't care.
…
Half an hour later, a transport spacecraft landed on the roof of the City Guard Building, escorting Wang Zhiheng and others.
"Mr. Wang, how many times do I need to tell you that Chen Songnan said at the time that the problem lies with his people, and Sandra can help us prove it."
"This matter has nothing to do with us!"
Wang Zhiheng kept cursing all the way, and Section Chief Wang frowned. At first, he really thought that Qin Xiao had received some intelligence, but after learning the details, he felt something was wrong.
But he had no choice, and he couldn't say much to Wang Zhiheng. Qin Xiao was not just Qin Xiao, he represented the authority of the Blue Star civilization, and the Sixth Patrol Fleet also blocked the extraterrestrial waterways of the Silver-Gray Star.
There is no other way except to obey orders.
"We're here. Send them to the detention room first. I'll go find the minister to find out what's going on." Section Chief Wang stood up and said in a deep voice.
The hatch opened and someone was already waiting there.
"Section Chief Wang." Li Ning walked forward.
"It's you?" Section Chief Wang had some impression of this young man. He seemed to be one of Yang Peng's subordinates.
"Li Ning, why are you here to pick us up? Where are your family? Where is Lao Yang?" Wang Zhiheng saw Li Ning and spoke.
"Captain Wang, Yang Ke has just taken over the Internal Affairs Department and is currently sorting it out, so let me explain the situation." Li Ning explained.
"Oh..." Wang Zhiheng nodded first, then his eyes widened as if he had received an electric shock. "What the hell are you talking about, Yang Ke?"
"Yeah." Li Ning grinned. "Half an hour ago, Secretary-General Fan made an exception and promoted Captain Yang to the position of Head of the Internal Affairs Section."
"What the hell?" Wang Zhiheng was full of envy and jealousy: "He...he..."
Section Chief Wang, however, keenly noticed another point and frowned, "Was he promoted by Secretary-General Fan?"
"Yes." Li Ning continued, "Former Minister Qin Xiao has been temporarily stripped of his position as minister due to seventeen felonies."
Section Chief Wang was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze. The others looked at each other in confusion. What the hell… Just because he went out, the whole situation in the department changed?
"What about us?" Wang Zhiheng asked impatiently.
"Of course you are all fine. Yang Ke specifically asked me to come and inform you."
"Ha..." Wang Zhiheng grinned, and his colleagues came forward to untie their shackles.
Wang Zhiheng was full of curiosity. He put his arms around Li Ning's neck and asked what had happened.
After a moment, he jumped up like a cat whose tail was stepped on, "You said, Li Ming and that Fan guy are really flirting with each other?"
"It's not me who said that. I heard it from Brother Yao." Li Ning explained hurriedly.
Wang Zhiheng's expression changed, and he slammed his fist on his palm. "Fuck, this kid has really taken advantage of me!"
"Yang Peng is so lucky. He's an uncle because of his nephew. He even managed to become a section chief. Damn, I should have known not to give that guy directions."
"Captain Wang, keep your voice down." Li Ning waved his hands hurriedly, looking around, and whispered in a low voice with a guilty conscience, "Captain Yang forbade mentioning this matter."
"He..." Wang Zhiheng curled his lips, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just mumbled and said nothing.
Yang Peng is now the head of the internal affairs department. If you want to make things difficult for him, it only takes a word.
………
For the next three days, the entire Silver Ash City leadership was in turmoil.
There are five people in the Management Committee, each responsible for the main departments of Silver Ash City, and all of them were removed from their posts at the same time.
It is said that when they were arrested, they were all confused. After learning the inside story, they greeted Qin Xiao's ancestors for eighteen generations.
There were many other people affected as well. Not only the sky of the city guards, but the sky of the entire Silver Ash City was changed.
The citizens of Silver Ash City went from being at a loss at first to becoming accustomed to it.
“9%…” Li Ming was only wearing shorts, naked all over, his skin was flushed red, and white smoke was rising from his body.
The detection device in front of him revealed his current development progress. Now everything was put on hold. He didn't bother to care about the outside world and had been concentrating on development.
After the capability is enabled, the development speed can be tripled. Even so, the development speed is not optimistic.
"If we get a few more genetic testing devices, the effects will be cumulative and the development speed should be able to increase a lot." Li Ming pondered. He had this idea a long time ago, and now that he had time to spare, it was time to put it on the agenda.
The money is not much on the surface. I received my salary two days ago, plus the bonus, which is a total of 15,000 star coins. Unfortunately, it is just a drop in the bucket.
Black Hole Network still has a balance, but he doesn't want to be ripped off because of such a small matter.
He thought that next time he saw Old Wu, he would have to shamelessly ask for some.
"Brother Li, hey, you finally came out." As soon as he walked out of the special training room, he saw Lin Yaoxian standing not far away and greeting him.
With a flattering smile on his face.
This guy says one thing to one person and another to another person. He is a fence-sitter and goes with the flow, but surprisingly, he has not really participated in any shameful activities.
Logistics Chief Du Chengdu was arrested, but he was temporarily safe.
"Chief Lin, what a coincidence." Li Ming wiped his hair.
"It's no coincidence. I've been waiting for you here for six or seven hours." Lin Yaoxian said with some resentment.
"What do you want to talk to me about?"
Lin Yaoxian smiled and said, "I've reserved a table at the Silver City Hotel and would like to invite you over for dinner."
"Eat?" Li Ming glanced at him and shook his head: "Not interested."
"Chief Lin, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly."
Lin Yaoxian's expression changed. He looked around like a thief and whispered:
"Little brother, please don't mind if I've offended you before. You know, when I worked under that bastard Qin Xiao, there were many things I couldn't do anything about."
"I know your family is not well off. I have saved some money over the years and am prepared to donate some money."
Here to send money? Li Ming was slightly surprised. It couldn't be that serious. How could this guy be so scared?
"Little brother, you may not know this, but Brother Yang is now the head of the Internal Affairs Section, and also the head of the Logistics Section." Lin Yaoxian's tone was full of envy. "Professor Wu specifically praised his courage in reporting to the higher-ups."
Li Ming understood that Old Wu was quite roundabout. On the surface, he was raising Yang Peng's status to radiate him, thus achieving an indirect protection effect.
Another day of 10,000 words, please vote!
