Chapter 712: Chapter 712: The Slap in the Face Tool
Only Shang Lu, who had been completely unaware of the circumstances, spent his days secluded in his own dicine Garden, turning over the soil and reading dical texts, leading a life of tranquility and contentnt.
He was very obedient because his elder brother had said, “Don’t go out recently.”
At 10:30 a.m., the Tribal Chief’s Council conducted a special case hearing in the independent building.
The venue was packed, with Shang Yu and Li Qiao also present in the auditorium, and three mbers of the Elders’ Hall attended as observers.
The host of the hearing was Ning Yuanyang, with personnel from various public agencies involved in the investigation seated on both sides of the auditorium.
At the scene, the official dia of the Tribal Chief’s Council set up caras to broadcast the entire event live, and the internet and major television stations also provided real-ti coverage.
At the start of the hearing, Ho Zijue from the Customs Enforcent and the head of the Security Bureau asserted that Shang Shaoyan’s criminal facts were established and that he should be arrested and brought to justice as soon as possible.
However, Captain Qin from the main police bureau believed that the evidence was insufficient and further investigation was needed.
This unprecedented hearing nearly set new viewership records for television and live internet streaming.
At 10:40 a.m., Li Qiao yawned in the auditorium, her moist eyes falling on Ho Zijue with an intriguing expression.
During the presentation of evidence, people occasionally walked in through the rear door to deliver docunts.
The official dia’s caras captured everything, which also touched the hearts of countless viewers.
Another ten minutes passed, and the venue was very quiet.
Ning Yuanyang, looking at Ho Zijue and others to his left, furrowed his brows, “The docunts you just received, are they new evidence materials?”
Ho Zijue frowned at the docunts in his hand, then looked up at the opposite side, “Captain Qin from the police also seems to have received them. As the direct investigating agency, perhaps they should present it first.”
Qin Song was still daydreaming, his eyes fixed on the tabletop, his expression revealing uncertainty.
Ning Yuanyang looked intently at Ho Zijue, then turned his gaze to Qin Song, “Captain Qin, did you receive new evidence?”
Ignoring the eyes from the auditorium, Qin Song stood up straight, pushed back his chair with so hesitation, picked up the docunts and handed them to the hearing assistant, “Speaker Ning, perhaps you should take a look yourself.”
The assistant placed the docunts in front of Ning Yuanyang, who glanced through them and then, without changing his expression, laid them on the table, “I see.”
Qin Song watched Ning Yuanyang with an impassive face and muttered disdainfully: Second cousin, you really know how to play it cool.
No wonder Shaoyan hadn’t made any moves for so many days; it turned out everything was under his control.
The docunts recently brought in were not new evidence at all, but clearly exculpatory materials.
At the sa ti, the online audience watching the live broadcast exploded with activity.
Ruthless Xi Sauce without Husband: What docunts? What evidence? Dare to make it public?
Single Eyelid Girl: I call for it to be made public, plus one.
Li Qiao is my dad and even your ancestor: Definitely not evidence, but a face-slapping tool, go dad!!!
A Fire Rose: Supporting the above!
Wenxi Island’s Beauty: Supporting the third floor.
Handso British Imperial Gentleman: Supporting the third floor.
Imperial Capital’s Local Hegemon: Supporting the third floor.
He Chen from the He Family’s Forebears: Supporting the third floor.
Bian Lao San: Screw your smuggling, screw your tax evasion, does Qi Zai need it? Does Master Yan need it?
Bian Lao Si: Ignorant, benighted, beyond foolish.
Bian Lao Wu: [Confused] Tax evasion of a billion? That’s considered tax evasion?
Bian Lao Liu: Supporting everyone above.
Tang Family’s Xiaoting: Am I late? This VPN is so freaking hard to find. [Crying]
Your Daddy Yan: Boring, they didn’t even include this ti.
The comnts on the live broadcast page were nothing short of a historic online eting.
On the other hand, although Ho Zijue appeared to be his usual self, only he knew that once these newly-delivered docunts went public, the hearing would turn into a farce.
Such an event could not happen.
Ho Zijue pondered for a few seconds, then closed the docunts and pressed them under his palm, raising his eyes to the presidium and stated earnestly, “Speaker Ning, I request a delay of the hearing, these pieces of evidence…”
“Wait a mont!” Qin Song interrupted him directly, “Why postpone? Could it be that the evidence in Director Ho’s hands is sufficient to prove Shang Shaoyan’s innocence?”
Ho Zijue sneered coldly, “Innocent? How can several docunts of unknown origin be treated as evidence without investigation?”
A noisy discussion broke out in the audience instantly.
Ning Yuanyang called for quiet and glanced at Shang Yu with a seemingly casual gaze, sighing to Ho Zijue, “Director Ho, hand it over. Whether it can be treated as evidence, we shall decide on the spot.”
At this point, any further hesitation from Ho Zijue would seem overly deliberate.
He casually handed the materials to an on-site assistant, and a subtle change occurred on his composed face.
At eleven o’clock sharp in the morning, all the materials and evidence were integrated.
Without waiting for Ning Yuanyang to disclose the contents, exclamations suddenly erupted from the audience.
In just a few seconds, countless eyes were fixed on Shang Yu and Li Qiao, as the official dia focused their caras on them, and the audience fervently discussed the developnts, constantly refreshing the pages on their smartphones.
“How can this be called illegal possession of weapons? Is there anyone who has a more legitimate claim than he does?”
“What is the Customs Enforcent doing? How can repatriation of cultural relics be called smuggling?”
“And there’s more. The Yan Emperor Parma Branch pays over fifty billion in taxes each year. Would they need to evade ten billion in taxes?”
The commotion around him made Ho Zijue’s heart tighten, as the expressions of others changed dramatically.
It turned out that soone had published a series of ironclad pieces of evidence online that vindicated Shang Yu.
Ning Yuanyang looked at Shang Yu with a sowhat headache-inducing expression, seemingly complaining about why he chose this ti to release the news online.
In this situation, Shang Yu lowered his eyes, his thin lips curling into a faint smile, looking towards Li Qiao, who appeared indifferent, “What did you do?”
Li Qiao scrolled through her phone’s page, casually smiling, “Just a slap in the face.”
She hadn’t done much, rely added fuel to the flas.
She knew that Shang Yu had already arranged everything, simply to mislead the Elders’ Hall into thinking they had the upper hand.
Yet she couldn’t stand to see so many people harbor bad intentions, speculating and doubting him.
Next, in order to proceed with the hearing in an orderly manner, Ning Yuanyang presented all the recently received materials on the big screen.
The first docunt: A list of sixteen mariti cultural relic transactions.
The second docunt: Sixteen agreents for the donation of Parma cultural relics.
The third docunt: The annual financial report and tax paynt details of the Yan Emperor Parma Branch.
The fourth docunt: A production permit letter issued by the Tribal Chief’s Council, authorizing the Parma Armant Factory as the sole supplier of military weapons and equipnt for the Military Departnt, with a term of fifty years, approved seven years ago.
The fifth docunt: Major Wei Lang, the representative of the Parma Armant Factory, and Honorary Major General Shang Shaoyan, the owner of the Parma Armant Factory.
The sixth docunt…
The seventh docunt…
Everyone was at a loss for how to react to a series of official docunts.
And indeed, as the netizens said, each one was a face-slapping tool.
The three elders of Shang’s Elders’ Hall were even more stupefied, as if sitting on pins and needles.
This is impossible!
Shang Shaoyan had left Parma for many years, how could he possess so many honors?
anwhile, Li Qiao frowned at the screen, her eyes brimming with confusion.
She had not instructed anyone to prepare paper materials. Could the docunts that were brought in have been prepared by Shang Yu?
At this mont, Ho Zijue looked at Ning Yuanyang with a sarcastic expression, “Speaker Ning, isn’t it irresponsible to disclose these materials without an investigation? It’s common knowledge that Parma has never had the title of Honorary Major General.”
Ning Yuanhang pursed his lips and nodded, “You’re right, which is why this is not a rank but a special honor. Shang Shaoyan is not a major general, but he enjoys all the treatnt of a Military Departnt major general because he owns the Parma Armant Factory, which provides military equipnt to the Military Departnt free of charge every year.
“This was supposed to be a military secret, and it’s only disclosed today out of necessity. The Tribal Chief’s Council will issue a joint announcent after the hearing. As for the real Major Wei Lang, he is probably still detained at the police headquarters.”
Criminal Investigation Division Captain Qin Song: “…”
Fucking Wei Lang.
