Chapter 757: Chapter 757
“Confessing? That’s impossible. If you have the guts, just convict directly.” Zhang Yang’s face was full of mockery.
This new president, Zhang Yang could tell, was definitely working for soone else.
But Zhang Yang found it strange—who was targeting him this ti?
Previously, Guo Qiyu had co looking for him, but from Guo Qiyu’s words, Zhang Yang could discern that the person targeting him wasn’t Guo Qiyu.
Upon further reflection, the Xu Family’s eldest seed unlikely to have this kind of influence either.
How amusing—the fact remains he hadn’t provoked or offended anyone, yet sohow he beca a target, with an entire sche against him.
The Xu Family’s eldest may not be the mastermind, but he was certainly involved.
Gao Jie, seeing Zhang Yang so defiant, darkened his expression. “Zhang Yang, don’t think just because you’ve got soone helping you, you can get away. This ti, you won’t escape.”
“Next, I’ll let you experience all sorts of interrogation techniques.”
Zhang Yang narrowed his eyes and replied to Gao Jie, “Sure, let broaden my horizons. But you better make sure to keep here, and don’t give a chance to leave—otherwise, everything I endure today, you’ll experience firsthand.”
“You dare threaten ?” Gao Jie slamd the table in fury.
Zhang Yang sneered coldly, “You threatened first.”
“Alright, Zhang Yang, let’s see who prevails.”
After saying that, Gao Jie left. Shortly after, two sinister-looking n walked in.
“Kid, refusing to drink the toast and opting for penalty shots, huh? Let tell you, under our hands, even the hardest bones can be broken.”
Zhang Yang didn’t bother arguing with these people. “Alright, alright, just hurry up and get it over with.”
He finished speaking and activated the Nine Revolutions’ energy to shield his entire body.
Even so, Zhang Yang couldn’t avoid suffering.
These n alternated between using high-pressure water jets, syringes, and even electric shocks.
But Zhang Yang didn’t utter a single sound—in fact, he ended up laughing wildly at the end, “Ha ha, refreshing! Pretty stimulating!”
The two n, seeing Zhang Yang’s insolent deanor, couldn’t help but feel a chill inside.
They’d seen tough guys before, but never one this tough.
anwhile, Gao Jie was under enormous pressure himself.
Outside, chaos reigned—so much so that the Harmonious Society Managent Association had already mobilized people, but things only spiraled further out of control. There weren’t even enough cells to lock up all the detainees.
The phone lines were flooded—ordinary citizens didn’t dare leave their hos; kids stopped attending school; businesses suspended operations.
The scene resembled the end of the world.
For the first ti, ordinary people felt the terror of social collapse.
Everyone was discussing today’s events on their phones, and in the end, the bla fell squarely on the new president of the Harmonious Society Managent Association.
Everything had been going fine, but as soon as this new president took office, such a huge ss unfolded.
Gao Jie’s phone was completely shut off—he couldn’t keep it on. As just a president of the Harmonious Society Managent Association, there were many leaders above him. “Out of sight, out of mind,” he muttered. Right now, he didn’t want to deal with the chaos outside—all he cared about was pinning Zhang Yang down amidst mounting pressure.
But soon enough, the senior leader Liang Hongwei showed up with over ten departnt heads.
Guo Qiyu’s lips curled into a smirk. Last ti, when Liang Hongwei ca by with his team, it was Guo Qiyu who suffered. This ti, it seed the tables had turned, and soone else was about to take the fall.
Guo Qiyu promptly brought the group to Gao Jie.
Gao Jie hadn’t expected Liang Hongwei to show up in person, but he maintained a tough stance.
“Leader, it’s not that I’m negligent—it’s the Jiang Family running amok. For Zhang Yang’s sake, they dare to openly challenge our authority.”
Gao Jie imdiately recounted the situation’s context.
Of course, when Zhang Yang’s na ca up, Gao Jie confidently declared that the evidence was conclusive, labeling Zhang Yang a murderer.
“Leader, I need coordination from all departnts to help deal with these unruly elents—it’s a perfect opportunity to eliminate those evildoers once and for all.”
Liang Hongwei responded in a deep voice, “Do you think you can capture them all? Fighting cri is indeed our duty, but have you considered how these cris ca to be?”
“Society has two sides. People harbor aggression, and when you block all their outlets for release, you end up with situations like today. You need to think about the consequences of your actions.”
Gao Jie dismissed the comnts, saying, “That’s the Jiang Family’s lawlessness—I cannot yield to their threats by letting a murderer roam free and continue wreaking havoc on society.”
The ten-odd departnt heads behind Liang Hongwei were flabbergasted—where on earth did he co from? This president’s career might just be over.
Liang Hongwei’s face darkened. “Gao Jie, since you repeatedly claim Zhang Yang is a murderer, has he confessed? Do the current pieces of evidence unequivocally convict him?”
“He’ll confess soon enough. Once Zhang Yang is dealt with, the Jiang Family will naturally back down—order will be restored, and we’ll seize this chance to purge those unruly elents thoroughly.”
Gao Jie spoke with utmost confidence, but Guo Qiyu only sneered as he watched.
How naive. Did he really think that rely having evidence ant he could do whatever he wanted?
Liang Hongwei followed up sternly, “I’m asking you—do the current pieces of evidence unequivocally convict Zhang Yang?”
Gao Jie frowned, suspecting Liang Hongwei might have ulterior motives—was he trying to intervene?
Thus, Gao Jie answered bluntly, “Yes, the evidence is conclusive.”
“Are you certain that the witnesses and physical evidence are authentic and valid?” Liang Hongwei pressed on.
Gao Jie, feeling frustrated, retorted: “Leader, what are you implying? Are you suggesting soone frad Zhang Yang?”
To his surprise, Liang Hongwei affird, “Indeed, I have such suspicions because I’m sowhat familiar with Zhang Yang as a person.”
The group was stunned—even Guo Qiyu was shocked.
At such a critical mont, Liang Hongwei unexpectedly defended Zhang Yang. It was a risky move. Guo Qiyu had reviewed Zhang Yang’s case—it wasn’t ironclad, but the evidence against Zhang Yang was substantial. If Zhang Yang couldn’t overturn the accusations, Liang Hongwei would be in deep trouble, potentially giving others an opportunity to exploit the situation.
Nonetheless, Liang Hongwei took the stand—did he have confidence in Zhang Yang? Or was this an act of unwavering integrity, despite the risks?
Gao Jie’s heart sank. He hadn’t anticipated Liang Hongwei taking such a strong stance.
Feeling assured of Zhang Yang’s inability to overturn the case, Gao Jie resolutely stated, “Leader, one can know a person’s appearance but not their inner thoughts—you might have been deceived by Zhang Yang.”
“Heh, so you’re certain of the evidence’s authenticity?” Liang Hongwei pressed again—it was his third ti interrogating Gao Jie, leaving no room for evasion.
