416: the truth!

“Oh?”

Hearing Xu Zhiyuan's words, Zhou Xun's mouth curved slightly.

“You didn’t? I haven't even said who that national treasure level scientist is, nor what the specific matter is. Why are you in such a hurry?”

“Aren't you talking about Guo Hao? This matter caused a big stir before, it's not strange that I know about it.”

Xu Zhiyuan regained his composure. He looked calmly at Zhou Xun.

“If you are a robber trying to get money from me, you've got the wrong idea. If you are someone from a special department of a certain country.

My suggestion is, it's better to investigate me through normal means!

The country emphasizes ruling by law. What you are doing is a destruction and desecration of the country's legal system!”

Xu Zhiyuan shouted at Zhou Xun.

“As expected of a Vice Mayor!”

Zhou Xun smiled.

“Listening to your tone, your political awareness is quite high! If we hadn't specifically investigated the political forces behind you and found some evidence of your power and money transactions, I would have really thought you were an honest official!”

“No matter how you slander me, it's meaningless!

Our country's laws explicitly stipulate! Private trials have no legal effect and cannot be used as any evidence!”

Xu Zhiyuan said calmly, looking at Zhou Xun with a composed expression.

“Hahahahaha!”

Zhou Xun laughed, looking at Xu Zhiyuan in front of him.

“You are right, indeed, but, now you speak, we can still protect you. If we were to go through formal channels.

If we reveal even a little bit of evidence, do you think certain people can sit still? At that time, the ones who want your life might not be us.

If we don't communicate well, what do you think is your chance of survival?”

Zhou Xun's mouth curved slightly, looking at Xu Zhiyuan and saying with a faint smile.

Xu Zhiyuan frowned tightly, a look of worry flashing in his eyes.

“If you want to live, and you want the people around you to continue living well, listen to me and tell us clearly what you know.

Don't worry, your punishment will definitely be the lightest. We have found some evidence, but it's just not enough yet.

It's not enough compared to that black hand behind you, but for you, it's more than enough!

Besides, are you sure that if something happens to you, the person behind you will dare to come and save you?”

Zhou Xun coaxed Xu Zhiyuan patiently.

To be fair, everything Zhou Xun said was actually true, not a single word was false.

Xu Zhiyuan was also very clear about this.

It's just that his concerns were still very deep.

Firstly, the people involved in that matter have very deep backgrounds. Once he exposes them, can he really survive??

Xu Zhiyuan was very skeptical. He felt that he still wouldn't survive that way!

Then, if he goes to prison, they definitely won't come to save him, but will they kill him?

Xu Zhiyuan was also unsure, and he was very hesitant in his heart.

Zhou Xun saw Xu Zhiyuan's hesitation.

He seized the opportunity and said.

“If you are willing to say something, I can guarantee your personal safety. You don't need to worry about whether what I say is true or false, because this case is being personally overseen by the Big Leader!

Regarding your safety, you can rest assured!”

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, looking at Xu Zhiyuan and saying.

Big Leader!

Xu Zhiyuan was startled.

He knew Guo Hao's status was very high, extremely high one might say.

But he didn't expect that Guo Hao was so highly valued by the leadership!

Regarding Guo Hao's case, Xu Zhiyuan thought it would at most reach the level of the Security Bureau, and that would be about it.

He didn't expect it to be watched by the entire leadership!

And they investigated him so quickly!

Zhou Xun's words directly broke the last psychological defense line in Xu Zhiyuan's heart.

Since it had reached the highest level, what was the point of him hiding it?

After a long silence.

Xu Zhiyuan began to slowly recount what happened back then, including the people involved and the family forces involved.

Actually, the matter was very simple. It was just two or three second-generation individuals who came to Shanghai to play, were a bit short on money, and then started looking for businesses to help them make money.

Shen Zhiyuan's company was among them.

In fact, including Shen Zhiyuan's company, there were a total of about seven or eight companies that these few second-generation individuals took an interest in.

Their outcomes were also different.

Shen Zhiyuan's company was targeted by a few second-generation individuals and was eventually suppressed by them using various means during the tide of the world economic cycle.

This ultimately led to the company's bankruptcy. Shen Zhiyuan's company was directly liquidated, and hundreds of millions of assets were forcibly auctioned off.

At the same time, Shen Zhiyuan was burdened with hundreds of millions in foreign debt!

The fate of the other seven or eight companies was not much better than Shen Zhiyuan's.

Basically, they all went bankrupt.

And all these matters were suppressed by Xu Zhiyuan, who was the Director of the Public Security Bureau at the time.

Including Shen Zhiyuan's death.

Originally, Shen Zhiyuan was still unconvinced. He went to the Public Security Bureau to report the crime and even wanted to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit.

Then he was physically eliminated.

His body was thrown into the Huangpu River.

Zhou Xun listened to Xu Zhiyuan's confession, unsure how to describe his feelings.

He suddenly thought, if Professor Guo knew about this.

To what extent would he be enraged?

Thinking of this, Zhou Xun felt a slight headache.

This is so tragic, it's really troublesome now!

Should he tell Professor Guo truthfully?

However, Xu Zhiyuan was indeed unrelated to Guo Hao's assassination, or rather, he didn't know much about this matter.

The only thing he did was, after seeing Guo Hao wake up, he discovered that the woman beside Guo Hao was the daughter of an old acquaintance.

Sweating profusely, he immediately reported this matter to those few second-generation individuals from back then.

Xu Zhiyuan was unaware of what happened afterwards.

But according to Xu Zhiyuan's guess, in an incident like Guo Hao being attacked, there would likely be remnants of those few second-generation individuals involved.

That's why when Zhou Xun just said he betrayed the country and assassinated a national treasure level scientist, Xu Zhiyuan subconsciously retorted.

Because he did not do this thing.

Although there was a connection, he really didn't do this thing!

After a moment of silence.

“Regarding what you said, I will report it truthfully to the Big Leader. We will continue to investigate. If we find that everything you said is true, then there's nothing to say, you will at most serve a few years in prison.

But if we investigate and find that you are hiding something or lying…”

Zhou Xun smiled slightly.

“Then don't blame us for not being able to protect you!”

Hearing Zhou Xun's words, Xu Zhiyuan's expression changed slightly.

“Everything I said is the truth!”

“Is there evidence?”

Zhou Xun smiled slightly.

“Preferably evidence that those three second-generation individuals cannot refute.”

Xu Zhiyuan was silent for a long time.

“Yes!”

...

The share subscription went very smoothly.

The one hundred billion yuan fund raised by Guo Hao was all injected into Nine Heavens Energy.

And the share allocation across the entire Dragon Country also came to an end.

Three hundred million people participated, and over one million people obtained varying amounts of share subscription quotas.

The minimum obtained the right to purchase one share, and the maximum obtained the quota to purchase over a hundred shares.

Subscribing for one share only required ten thousand yuan, and many people chose to purchase directly!
