anwhile, at the Northern Mountain City Public Security Bureau.
After Gou Qiang, also known as Young Master Gou, was taken alone into the interrogation room by Cheng Cheng, the Captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, he needed no interrogation or questioning. He imdiately confessed to everything without the slightest hesitation. As Captain Cheng Cheng listened, his expression grew uglier and his eyes filled with rage.
"Is everything you just said true? Without a single lie?" After a long pause, Captain Cheng Cheng suddenly slamd the file shut. SNAP! He spoke with an extrely grim expression.
According to Young Master Gou's confession, Yang Yuancheng was nothing short of scum who bullied n and won alike, a villain capable of every imaginable evil—a true social cancer. He not only relied on his father's status but also colluded with corrupt officials in the Health Bureau, the Fire Brigade, and the Drug Administration. Together, they abused their power, bullied others, and forced sales and acquisitions.
Moreover, whenever he encountered resistance, he would use every ans to strike from all sides. He would either disrupt the other party's business directly or target their relatives and friends with indirect threats. This compelled his victims to submit, forcing them to sell their assets at incredibly low prices or cede a majority of their shares for the syndicate's massive profits.
"It's all true, but Yang Yuancheng was the mastermind! I was just an errand boy," Gou Qiang whispered, unable to stop himself from lowering his head. He knew that after revealing all this, his life would no longer be easy.
"An errand boy? Hmph! You should know what all those cris add up to! It's not sothing you can just brush off with a few simple words!" Captain Cheng Cheng snorted coldly, his anger palpable. "I never imagined you bastards could be so lawless! To think you would dare to do such things, with so many worms colluding with you and stirring up trouble! You have absolutely no regard for the law!"
BANG!
The door to the interrogation room was suddenly thrown open from the outside, the deafening sound making one's heart skip a beat.
"Kid, here's another chance for you to atone for your cris! Na all the worms you were in cahoots with. Every single one you know! Got it?" Zhu Qianye stord in, his face ashen and his voice as cold as ice.
"I'll talk, I'll talk! I'll tell you everything..." Young Master Gou stamred, his face pale and his body trembling.
The next morning, official news outlets in Northern Mountain City, on Jiangnan Province's channels, and across the internet began reporting on the case of market manipulation and abuse of power. Subsequently, the worms within the District Health Bureau, the District Traffic Police Brigade, and the Drug Administration were arrested overnight. The entire criminal network was uprooted, a result that elicited widespread applause and celebration.
Of course, aside from the few people who knew the real story, the general public believed it to be a massive governnt clean-up. They assud the governnt and the Public Security Bureau were once again doing good deeds for the people, removing the tumors from the system and restoring justice and order to society.
Beyond that, the news of the involvent of Yang Yuancheng, son of Organization Departnt Minister Yang Bin, was like a tiny splash in a giant wave. A few people noticed, but most paid it no mind.
However, it was certain that Yang Yuancheng was the mastermind. The investigation also implicated several other well-known and influential scions from Northern Mountain City's elite circles. Naturally, all of them were arrested overnight; not a single one escaped.
Thus, what awaited them was, without a doubt, the severe punishnt of the law and the fitting retribution of karmic justice.
However, according to back-channel sources, these individuals had emotional breakdowns during their arrest and interrogation. They were reportedly so crazed that they barely seed human, causing those who heard about it to sigh in lant. If only they had known it would co to this.
Young Master Gou Qiang, however, was the luckiest of them all. Thanks to Chen Fei's earlier words, and because he ultimately saw the error of his ways and confessed everything, he was given a chance to atone for his cris. He received the lightest punishnt of all: a two-year prison sentence.
As this wave of severity and turmoil swept through the political scene of Northern Mountain City, Chen Fei had already extricated himself from the affair, ready to focus on his cultivation.
