244 Phone Rings
What happened last night made many people unable to sleep well.
At that ti, the witnesses, the middle and upper managent of the nightclub, the fire departnt, the hospital, the public security bureau, Xie Guangjun’s family… and so on.
Of course, there was also Xiaoman’s family.
When the police mobilized the surveillance caras and discovered that the intruders had arrived at the floor where Kang De’s house was, although they had almost confird that they had broken into his house, considering that the person living next door was a famous entrepreneur, it was not impossible to burglarize or kidnap the rich man for ransom. In case, he still called and contacted them.
Therefore, when the father and daughter heard the news, they rushed back overnight. When they arrived at the police station, Xiaoman went to pick up Kang De, and Uncle Wang went to the bureau chief to understand the situation.
After all, it was a huge case with five casualties, and the injured person was the second son of a famous entrepreneur in the province. The city took it very seriously. The bureau chief personally watched and after a high-intensity night of investigation and investigation, although he did not produce a final conclusion, the few public prosecutors had more or less grasped the general situation.
This was the inside story Uncle Wang had asked about.
Kang De and Xiaoman stayed in the car for a while before Uncle Wang appeared in their vision.
In terms of age, Xiaoman’s father was slightly younger than Xie Ligan.
Because he got rich late, his value was much lower, and his hidden network and foundation were much worse.
However, he was still a figure in his province.
Moreover, being young naturally had benefits. It was the sa for young people, and it was even more so for young companies. For example, they were sharper and easier to accept new things. They were also more advanced in thoughts and concepts.
As one of the entrepreneurs of the previous generation in China, Uncle Wang naturally had all the characteristics of a domineering CEO. For example, his hair was dry because of his irregular living habits, his eyes were listless because of obvious sleep problems, his weight was over the limit because he ate too much and lacked exercise because of the pressure of work, and he was dressed extrely casually.
As well as the hairline defense that was repeatedly retreating.
He opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat. Before the door was pulled, he turned around and smiled at Kang De, “You’re not frightened, right?”
Kang De shrugged. “I’m fine.”
Uncle Wang looked at it a few more tis and confird that Kang De was not forcing himself. He nodded and said, “It’s fine. That little b*stard reaped what he sowed. He was severely burned and his entire body was smashed. Living is worse than death—don’t tell anyone that. The director just secretly told that according to the situation at that ti, it was almost impossible for Xie Guangjun to survive, but he survived. That’s God’s blessing to let him suffer more.”
Kang De nodded and said, “Yes, evil people will face retribution.”
Uncle Wang turned around and pulled the door open to fasten his seatbelt. Taking advantage of this mont, Xiaoman looked at Kang De with a burning gaze. He also looked at her with an extrely innocent expression.
The girl rolled her eyes.
Uncle Wang continued, “You must be hungry. I’ll bring you to lunch to calm you down. Do you want to stay at the villa for the next few days? Or go to the factory area. That place is not bad and is very comfortable. There are security guards patrolling at night.”
The so-called villa was the wilderness of the Xiaoman family. After all, ever since Uncle Wang beca rich, the gap between the two families had completely widened, and it was getting further and further away. However, Xiaoman still liked to live in the old house.
Kang De shook his head and said, “There’s no need. It’s safer now.”
“That’s right. Up until now, there’s more and more evidence dug up on Xie Guangjun, causing that old man, Xie Ligan, to be very embarrassed. At a ti like this, if anything happens to you, the Public Security Bureau will not be rciful. Xie Ligan won’t find trouble with you at all—he’s in a terrible fix now.”
Uncle Wang took the key from Xiaoman and pressed the button to start the car. Then, he said, “I’ve already contacted them. In the afternoon, soone will co to install a surveillance cara outside the door. It has the ability to identify and automatically call the police. The police will also help cooperate. Change your door.”
When Xiaoman heard this, she turned her head to the other side and looked out the window, pretending to be looking at the scenery.
The Kang De family was quite miserable.
Firstly, it had been split open by Xiaoman with a fire axe and opened by a few hooligans with good skills. The most f*cking thing was that the lock that the hooligans had opened was bought and installed by Xiaoman…
That was why she felt that she had bought a fake product.
Thinking of the past, Kang De could not help but smile.
Uncle Wang thought that Kang De was conflicted about the money and added, “You don’t have to worry about the money. If nothing unexpected happens, Xie Ligan will send soone to discuss the compensation with you in the next few days. It shouldn’t be a small sum. It’s mainly money to suppress your shock and maintain your silence—the money to install the door lock and monitor can be paid from there.”
Before Kang De could speak, Xiaoman snorted, “Money to seal his lips… He’s already thinking of hiding it?”
Uncle Wang shook his head, “Xie Guangjun is half-dead now and is still being saved. It’s unknown if he can survive. After all, he’s his biological son. Xie Ligan definitely doesn’t want his son to carry a ssy reputation after he dies, let alone have a bad reputation for teaching his son… Therefore, he’ll definitely use his connections and network to end this matter. If it’s determined to be a drunk driving accident and death, it’s best.”
Xiaoman said angrily, “He killed soone! He even admitted it himself!”
“It’s that video, right? But only that’s useless.”
Uncle Wang replied, “Now, the police are also working hard to grab the clues of that video. Unfortunately, Xie Guangjun is already unconscious and can’t be interrogated. Moreover, if Xie Guangjun had already cleaned up the corpse at that ti and left nothing behind, this video alone can’t convict him. Even if Xie Guangjun personally admitted that he killed soone, they can’t convict him.”
He turned to look at his daughter, “After all, if a paranoid person runs to the police station and surrenders himself and says that he killed soone, even if the process is extrely detailed and logical, if they can’t find a trace of evidence, will the public prosecution law convict and sentence him? Of course not. Just like the matter of Xie Guangjun, if you can’t find evidence, you can’t rule out the possibility that Xie Guangjun is drunk or talking nonsense after drinking.”
Hearing this, Xiaoman looked at Kang De.
Kang De shook his head too.
He had learned about Xie Guangjun’s suspicion from the female ghost.
If he told the police officer this, the police officer would also think that he was high.
Xiaoman sighed. “How could this be?”
“Alright, there’s no need to be sentintal. Didn’t that little b*stard suffer retribution?” Uncle Wang was already used to more absurd things, so he was not as confused and indignant as his daughter. However, he still sighed in a sighing tone, “He has serious burns and many serious injuries all over his body. Even if he survives, he’s basically crippled. He won’t live long in the future. This is much more satisfying than an imdiate death sentence.”
Then, he sighed in a rather complicated tone, “Therefore, people have to be respectful. After all, so things in this world are very mysterious and difficult to explain with science.”
As one of the domineering CEOs of the previous generation in China, Uncle Wang naturally had a certain characteristic of many rich people, which was to believe in taphysics.
Generally speaking, in most cases, there were three types of people in the world who believed in taphysics.
There were people at the bottom of society, the upper echelons of society, and Africans.
Therefore, under Xiaoman’s gaze, Kang De smiled and nodded in agreent. Uncle Wang was right.
In short, to Kang De, this matter had co to an end.
—In Uncle Wang’s opinion, that was the case.
He thought about this problem from the perspective of entrepreneurs and upper-class people and felt that Xie Ligan would be troubled next and even beco the target of public criticism. He would deal with his son’s ss and deal with a series of subsequent troubles or even questions from above. If public opinion gained traction, how could he face the turmoil of the stock price and the questioning of the shareholders… Uncle Wang thought about this series of sses and felt a headache for Xie Ligan.
Under such circumstances, the conflict between Kang De and Xie Guangjun was simply too small.
Therefore, Uncle Wang felt that Xie Ligan would definitely not care about such a thing, especially now. The two things that Xie Guangjun had caused, one was related to hiring a murderer to break into the house, and the other was related to the old year’s murder case, causing the city’s Public Security Bureau to be very awkward. If he, Xie Ligan, played any tricks again, the provincial Public Security Bureau would embarrass him.
Moreover, he, Wang Yongzhi, had greeted the various leaders many tis today and spread the word. Xie Ligan already understood his attitude. If he dared to do anything to Kang De again, they would fall out.
This was the rule.
In China, everyone had to follow the rules.
Therefore, there was no problem.
Here, it had to be said that there was another characteristic of the previous overbearing CEOs of China.
They were extrely familiar with rules and were good at using them to the greatest extent. However, relatively speaking, their extre confidence in the rules and themselves caused their thoughts to be a little rigid.
For example, he could not think of any problem no matter what. It was not Xie Ligan’s fault.
Kang De, who was sitting in the back seat, was a kid who had grown up under his watch.
Originally, in order to suppress his shock and comfort him, Uncle Wang wanted to bring Kang De and Xiaoman to have a feast. However, considering that Grandpa Wang, Grandma Wang, and the villagers were still waiting for news in their hotown, he told Uncle Wang and directly drove back to his hotown to eat.
He had called in advance, so when he arrived ho, the old couple had already prepared food. It was very sumptuous.
Grandpa Wang pulled his son to the side to ask questions. Grandma Wang grabbed Kang De and Xiaoman’s hands and asked questions. After both sides were satisfied, she began to eat.
Grandma Wang looked at Xiaoman and Kang De sitting together. Her previous worry disappeared and she only smiled.
After dinner, Kang De went to visit every house and told the third uncles and second uncles who had surrounded the police car this morning that they were fine. It could be considered a thank-you for being safe.
Xiaoman followed.
Seeing this, the two elders smiled even happier. Grandma Wang secretly said to the old master from behind, “It’s like handing over an invitation and distributing wedding candy. The two of us were the sa at that ti.”
“I’ve never seen you like to visit relatives so much in the past.”
After walking to the fifth house, he stuffed another handful of beef kernels into his pocket. Kang De bit his apple and bade farewell to the uncle and auntie who had sent him to the door. Xiaoman peeled an orange and asked.
Kang De walked beside her and smiled at the villagers on the way to greet them. When he heard this, he thought for a mont and said, “Yes, I like it a little now. In the past, I felt that it was boring. I can’t recognize so many distant relatives. Moreover, I’m usually in the city and feel distant… However, now that I’m further away, I’m closer.”
In the other world, especially now, he had really seen countless friendly smiles.
Most people were extrely friendly, respectful, and worshipful to him. They were afraid of him, currying favor with him, asking him for a favor, and wanting to obtain so benefits from him. There were only two or three people who treated him sincerely.
It was not until the speech in front of the National Cetery that things changed slightly.
Of course, he did not feel angry and understood the thoughts of these people very well. However, it was precisely because of this that the kindness and sincerity of the villagers appeared precious. It was not because he was impressive, nor was it because he was powerful. It was only because they had the sa surna and ancestor, so he was their child.
Xiaoman was silent.
She could not imagine the hardships and difficulties Kang De had experienced, but she could understand what he had said.
After fighting in that endless cycle of cruelty, blood, and despair and obtaining such achievents, the higher he stood, the more he missed ordinary days…
However, she could not help much.
A mont later, the girl said softly, “When can you really return…”
Kang De was stunned.
He thought of his days in the other world and many people. Knight Cleveland, Hong San, Nick, Preston, Tina… The slaughtered village, the soldiers who had fought to the death, the elves who had been sent to the battlefield by the politicians, the war-torn world, and countless involuntary, sad, and pitiful lives.
He had only stepped onto Goethe’s land because of his promise to the knight.
Now…
“I’m sorry,” Kang De whispered. “I have so things to do, for the sake of the dead.”
Xiaoman gently held Kang De’s hand.
Comrades, sacrifices, promises, revenge, resurrection, breaking fate… In an instant, a huge painting unfolded in Xiaoman’s heart. It was at least a million words.
“If you want to do it, do it.”
She smiled lightly. “But you have to enjoy the holidays… Let’s go out and play tomorrow.”
Kang De looked at her and nodded. “Alright.”
He visited his relatives one by one. Every family had to sit for a while and say a few words. Ti passed quickly, but Kang De did not find it boring, and Xiaoman did not find it boring.
The forr was enjoying himself, and the latter was just accompanying Kang De.
While they were visiting and even strolling in the village, Xie Ligan had already returned ho. There were a few people standing in the living room with frightened and uneasy expressions. They were all lackeys who had accompanied Xie Guangjun to the nightclub that night.
“You all know that I, Xie Ligan, have always been fair. I definitely won’t vent my anger on you.”
Xie Ligan sat on the sofa and swept his gaze across everyone’s faces. “I’m a father and only want an answer. I only want you to tell the truth—did he take drugs?”
Everyone looked at each other. In the end, soone stood up and replied, “President Xie, I don’t know anything else, but we can guarantee that at least in the shop, Young Master Xie didn’t touch those things.”
The rest nodded in agreent.
Xie Ligan knocked his fingers on his knees twice and said indifferently, “In other words, my son only went to the toilet and began to spout nonsense? The boss of the nightclub personally promised that they checked the toilet after that and did not find any signs or residue of aspiration. What’s going on?”
No one could answer this question.
Xie Ligan continued to think. Sweat rolled down those people’s faces and they did not dare to breathe loudly.
After an unknown period of ti, Xie Ligan looked up. “Tell what happened last night again. From the beginning to the end, don’t miss any details!”
The few of them began to take turns explaining and supplenting each other, one after another.
Xie Ligan asked questions repeatedly.
“Wait…”
After hearing a detail, he looked up, and a sharp glint flashed through his eyes.
“An Kui’s daughter asked if you heard your phone ring?”
