Chapter 759: Chapter 759
After Xu Caii finished speaking, soone ca to report, “Chairman, Xu Guangzhi, Chairman Xu, is outside saying he’s here to take his daughter ho.”
Upon hearing this, Gao Jie imdiately refused, “Due to the complexity of the case, as needed, the investigation ti can be extended by 12 hours. Go and handle it right away.”
Gao Jie was now giving no face to anyone. Having already burned his bridges, he decided to take asures against Xu Caii and Tang Tiantian. He simply refused to believe that he couldn’t ultimately force Zhang Yang into submission.
Yet, in the next second, Xu Guangzhi stord in.
“Gao Jie, what do you think you are? Today, I’d like to see exactly what gives you the right to continue detaining my daughter.”
Gao Jie’s expression darkened, but he responded forcefully, “You are no longer affiliated with the Harmonious Society Managent Association, so you have no authority to intervene in this case.”
Xu Guangzhi directly pulled out a docunt. “Take a good look. As of now, our Harmonious Society Supervision Association will be stationed at the Harmonious Society Managent Association Center to assist in handling this case. Furthermore, as far as I know, my daughter is rely a witness for Zhang Yang. On what grounds are you detaining her?”
“Additionally, I now suspect that you’ve carried out improper interrogation against Zhang Yang. We will be investigating this matter thoroughly.”
Gao Jie’s face turned grim; he had previously overlooked this issue. Indeed, Xu Guangzhi outranked him slightly.
Forced into a corner, Gao Jie could only compromise, “You may take your daughter, but you cannot take Tang Tiantian. She is the victim’s spouse, and she was previously subjected to long-term dostic violence by the deceased. We therefore have sufficient reason to suspect that Tang Tiantian is either the primary or an accomplice perpetrator.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Caii couldn’t hold back any longer. “Where’s the evidence? As chairman, can you stop spouting such disgusting nonsense?”
Gao Jie was furious as well. “Xu Guangzhi, keep your daughter in line. Furthermore, if needed in the future, we will require her cooperation in the investigation.”
Xu Guangzhi chuckled coldly. “My apologies, but Tang Tiantian is also a victim. Besides being subjected to dostic violence, she was almost sold off by her husband to Fourth Brother Zhao.”
“According to the information we’ve obtained, the deceased was abused by Fourth Brother Zhao before his death. Moreover, Fourth Brother Zhao himself is involved in nurous other cases. If we’re talking about suspects, Fourth Brother Zhao is far more likely to be the murderer who killed the deceased and then frad Zhang Yang.”
It seed Xu Guangzhi had co prepared this ti.
“Interrogate Fourth Brother Zhao imdiately,” Xu Guangzhi commanded.
But Gao Jie wasn’t pleased. “The people who should be interrogated are Zhang Yang and Tang Tiantian. You’re only here to assist in the investigation, not to provide directives.”
“Gao Jie, let be blunt. We now strongly suspect that your handling of Zhang Yang involves personal grievances. Therefore, we request that you step aside.”
“Nonsense!” Gao Jie imdiately retorted.
Xu Guangzhi was unhurried as he pulled out his phone and played a video. The footage showed Gao Jie privately eting Zhang Yang and making threatening remarks. Beyond that, it captured the scene where two individuals were torturing Zhang Yang later.
Tang Tiantian and Xu Caii, upon seeing this, stared at the phone in utter shock, as though struck by lightning.
Very quickly, however, Xu Guangzhi put his phone away and addressed Gao Jie word by word, “Chairman Gao, how do you explain twelve hours of abuse?”
Gao Jie was trembling. “Impossible, impossible! How could you have such footage? I already shut off the caras!”
Xu Guangzhi sneered. “So, by that logic, Chairman Gao admits it.”
“No, I don’t know what’s going on.”
At that mont, Guo Qiyu entered the room with two others.
One of them imdiately spoke, “It was Chairman Gao who told to turn off the caras. But I believe interrogations must be transparent and open, so I turned the caras back on after Chairman Gao left.”
Gao Jie felt a surge of rage, as though he might cough up blood.
At this mont, he finally realized he’d been played. He now rembered that this place was, after all, Guo Qiyu’s territory.
Moreover, it was also Xu Guangzhi’s turf. Despite their usual differences, Guo Qiyu and Xu Guangzhi had worked together for years. When an outsider tried to ride roughshod over them, they’d both been deeply displeased.
Without hesitation, they collaborated seamlessly – one in the open, the other in the shadows – recording all of Gao Jie’s deeds.
But before Gao Jie could react, Xu Caii suddenly exploded, calling out the person beside Guo Qiyu responsible for guarding the surveillance room.
“If you saw everything, how could you not stop it? Why did you allow Gao Jie to torture Zhang Yang for a full twelve hours?”
“Well…” That person was trembling, unable to explain.
Could it have been Guo Qiyu’s orders?
“Weiwei, now’s not the ti for this. These matters will be addressed later.” Xu Guangzhi pulled Xu Caii back, preventing her from stirring up more trouble.
“But Dad…” Xu Caii’s eyes were brimming with tears.
Just watching briefly, she could feel how much pain Zhang Yang had endured at the ti.
Even though Zhang Yang remained silent, the sheer cruelty made her feel a cold shiver down her spine. Xu Caii knew very well that this torture would only grow more brutal, continuing as long as Zhang Yang refused to confess.
These despicable scum—utterly unforgivable.
Xu Guangzhi imdiately tried to comfort her. “Don’t worry. Those two individuals have already been detained, and they’ve admitted to acting under Gao Jie’s orders.”
“Chairman Gao, is there anything left for you to say?”
Gao Jie chuckled, regaining his composure. “Looks like I underestimated the two of you. Still, I didn’t expect you two to actually join forces.”
Guo Qiyu shook his head. “We didn’t join forces; it’s just that this ti, the ss you caused is massive.”
However, Gao Jie was utterly unfazed, replying, “Regardless, I’m still the chairman of the Harmonious Society Managent Association. Zhang Yang’s case is under my jurisdiction, so don’t get too smug.”
To this, Xu Guangzhi responded, “My apologies, but we require Chairman Gao to step aside.”
“I won’t step aside. Even if there’s an official docunt from above, I won’t comply.”
Gao Jie began playing dirty, but at this mont, Zhang Yang suddenly spoke up, “No need. I don’t require this bastard to step aside.”
Xu Guangzhi and Guo Qiyu exchanged a glance and nodded to each other.
Then Guo Qiyu said, “Release Xu Caii and Tang Tiantian imdiately—both of them are victims.”
“Also, bring in Fourth Brother Zhao and his n for interrogation right away.”
Having served as chairman for so many years, Guo Qiyu knew all too well what kind of man Fourth Brother Zhao was.
If Zhang Yang wasn’t the perpetrator, then the truth of this case wouldn’t be far off.
Gao Jie understood this well too. So, after everyone else left, he imdiately grabbed Zhang Yang, “I’m asking you one last ti—are you confessing or not?”
