677: Team solves case

However, after weighing the pros and cons, James chose to believe. What's more, he saw Fells and Nep so close today, and he had also heard that Nep had connections with the higher-ups before.

Xiao Xiao sneered from the side and suddenly asked, "Mr. Deng Liduō, may I ask if you have a younger brother?"

Deng Liduō firmly shook his head, "No, I am the only child in my family."

Xiao Xiao turned to look at James, "Then why did the leader of the strike organization that carried out the bombing claim that she had a candidate brother?"

James's face instantly turned ugly; they had actually investigated this far. Now, he could only sacrifice a pawn to save the king.

"This... as far as I know..." James deliberately left the sentence unfinished, only looking at Nep without directly saying the name. Matters of household registration like this can usually be found out.

This was also the reason why James believed in the existence of Nep's "younger brother" in the first place.

Nep's expression did not change; he said coldly, "I don't have a younger brother, never have!" He was gambling, betting on whether the other party had actually checked if he had a younger brother, or if they would prefer to believe his words.

"Then I'd like to ask, what am I?" Su Yue had already revealed the news of the mock election to Neiwuduo and bought him a plane ticket for today, just to see if he would actually go.

The highest level of deception is to play with people's hearts.

Neiwuduo had always endured his family's neglect; he chose a path completely opposite to his brother's, just so he wouldn't be compared anymore. However, deep down, he still cared very much about his brother.

He became who he is today, largely thanks to Nep.

To board the plane and leave smoothly, Neiwuduo used the cleaning agent Su Yue gave him to wash off all the tattoos on his face. Su Yue leaned against a pillar, enjoying this dramatic show with its rising climax.

"You... why did you wash off your tattoos?" Nep looked at Neiwuduo in surprise. He had made him get full-body tattoos in the first place to cover up that face that was too similar to his own.

That was also the beginning of Nep sacrificing his younger brother for his career.

"If I don't wash off the tattoos, I'm afraid no one will believe me even if I shout a hundred times that I'm your younger brother, right?" Neiwuduo's eyes were filled with tears; he wasn't without resentment towards his brother.

He had also resented his brother; when he was young and ignorant, he chose this shady path, and his brother supported him. For the sake of that choice, he became his brother's lackey, helping his brother deal with those who didn't support him.

However, he became increasingly insane, feeling like he was living in his brother's shadow. So, he started doing things that wouldn't harm his brother but could prove his own existence.

But because of this incident, Nep locked him in his room for nearly three months. Just when he finally got out, he was made to take a plane and leave this place where he was born and raised.

He was full of unwillingness and wanted to look back, but found that his brother had already abandoned him.

"Mr. Nep, are you still going to deny it?" Xiao Xiao looked at Nep, who was astonished and flustered below the stage, and mocked him.

"Kneel down and apologize to us!"

"You are not worthy of being the leader of our country!"

"Get back to your hometown!"

James never expected the situation to escalate to this point. He had always thought his younger brother was with him; who would have thought his younger brother would come out and expose himself? Now it's good; no one can escape.

James stood dejectedly beside the stage, but a sharp light still flickered in his eyes.

He had never admitted that he planned this matter himself, only that he was instigated by someone and acted on orders. Therefore, even if the public was angry, their anger would not be focused on him.

Su Yue looked at James's disguise and smiled contemptuously. Some people, if you don't show them the final outcome, they always think they can make a comeback and are immortal.

"Nep is guilty, but how can you, James, escape?" Xiao Xiao waved her hand, and Lyon and Gao Xiang escorted Bourne to appear before everyone.

"Director, I'm sorry!" Bourne, covered in wounds and weak, said to James.

"What do you have to be sorry to me for? Did you and Nep privately reach an agreement? But didn't tell me?" James's intelligence was outstanding; even at the last moment, he still tried to shift the blame to others.

"Play it!" Gao Xiang handed Xiao Xiao a USB drive, and Xiao Xiao played it through the loudspeaker for others to hear.

"What are your plans now?" Nep's voice came from it.

"Don't you just want more people to support you? It's very simple, just listen to me and there will be no problem." James's confident words were completely different from the apologetic voice he had just used.

"Of course, who doesn't want more votes?"

"I have a way, provided you cooperate with me well." Next, everyone heard James's plan—during the first speech, choose to create an incident at Nep's speech location and throw dirty water on Deng Liduō.

However, after the recording ended, Su Yue's voice suddenly sounded.

"Are you so sure that your left and right hands are fine?" The crowd was instantly in an uproar.

Why was there another person's voice here? And it sounded very young.

Su Yue was still leaning against the pillar. The previous recording by Xiao Xiao and the others was just the negotiation content between James and the North Chao envoy, which did not cause substantial damage.

Su Yue's voice in the recording did not stop; instead, it continued to resonate throughout the entire space.

"What? If you want to make a deal, shouldn't you reveal your trump card first?" Last night's conversation was originally in Fells's voice, but after Su Yue's clever handling, it sounded like Su Yue was directly talking.

James suddenly realized at this moment that he had been completely tricked by Su Yue last night; the person he was talking to was actually Su Yue.

The recording continued, and everyone took out their phones and began recording this shocking scene.

"Of course, I can't be the only one to reveal my trump card; how can we cooperate like that?" James's voice remained the same, but there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.

"Alright," Su Yue's voice sounded again.

"My trump card is that Nep has a younger brother who is the head of a strike organization, and he previously handed this so-called younger brother over to me to deal with!" James's originally stiff voice, to Neiwuduo, sounded full of sympathy and dominance.

She finally understood that in her brother's eyes, she was nothing; she had just been deceiving herself all along.

At this moment, not only was Xiao Xiao looking for Su Yue's location, but Gao Xiang and Lyon, after discovering the anomaly in the recording file, also immediately sensed that something was wrong; they both knew this must be Su Yue's doing.

However, they still haven't figured out how Su Yue managed to swap the USB drive without anyone noticing.

"Alright, you've watched the show for so long; now let me reveal the truth to everyone. I am the third voice in the recording, my name is Su Yue, and please take care of me."

"First, I want to tell everyone that Neiwuduo is indeed Nep's younger brother, and he was also the main executor of the North Chao Embassy bombing and the bombing during the candidate's speech."

"Secondly, although Neiwuduo's actions were controlled by James, the real power to act was in Nep's hands, and Nep gave this power to James as a bargaining chip."

"Third, the main planner of these two bombing incidents was James, and the purpose was to help Nep's election."

"Finally, the Central Intelligence Agency reached an agreement with the higher-ups that as long as Central Intelligence Agency Officer Si can successfully crack the N-sized file, he can enter the higher-ups. What does this mean?"

"This means that they are no longer independent of each other, and the highest belief of the United States—human rights and freedom—will be trampled upon by them at will!"

Su Yue's voice was clear and powerful; although only his voice was heard and not his person seen, his words were like thunder, shaking the hearts of everyone. These four pieces of information quickly topped the overseas hot search list, causing a huge sensation.

The public was angry; they found themselves being played by capital and power. The candidate was so unqualified, and the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency only cared about his own power, completely disregarding the lives of the people.

There was an article on the hot search that received nearly 100 million likes and shares. The article deeply analyzed the relationship between the higher-ups, the Central Intelligence Agency, and the President, allowing the public to see the truth.

The public began to fall silent, and then erupted into an even stronger roar.

Xiao Xiao, Gao Xiang, and Lyon wandered around the stage for a long time but could not find any trace of Su Yue.

Could it be that they would really never see Su Yue again?

Su Yue stood on a tall building, looking down at the disappointed Xiao Xiao and the others below, a slight smile on his lips. He threw the note he had written beforehand from the tall building, then turned and left.

His preliminary mission was completed, but his journey was far from over.

"Look what this is!" Gao Xiang suddenly picked up a piece of white paper that had floated down from above.

"On your way here, there was a sign that originally pointed to the left, I changed it to the right, so you took a detour. At the same time, while you were waiting for the traffic light, I pretended to be a Homeless person and begged you for food, taking the opportunity to swap the USB drive." The note detailed Su Yue's modus operandi.

Gao Xiang looked at the contents of the note, feeling both resentful and helpless. As a pursuer, he had to be told the crime process by the criminal, which was undoubtedly a 諷刺 to him.

Xiao Xiao looked at Gao Xiang's indignant appearance and comforted him, "Actually, this is not a bad thing. After all, he completely exposed the collusion between the Central Intelligence Agency and Nep, otherwise, with just that evidence, it would be very difficult for us to catch James."

Lyon also nodded in agreement.

"I must catch him!" Gao Xiang clenched the note tightly and said through gritted teeth.

"Yawn." Su Yue sat on the sofa, waiting for Wang Linlin's dumplings to be ready, but suddenly sneezed. "Who is cursing me?" Su Yue secretly pondered, thinking it was likely Gao Xiang and the others.

After all, letting the decipherer reveal the crime process himself is indeed a bit excessive, and can even be considered a provocation.

"You're really amazing! Your speech has caused a sensation in the country!" Wang Linlin brought the hot dumplings to the table.

"Really? How did it get back to the country?" Su Yue tasted a dumpling, praised it profusely, and didn't forget to applaud Wang Linlin.

"Stop teasing me! Everyone is praising you now and treating you as a hero!" Wang Linlin said, took out her phone, and showed Su Yue screenshots sent to her by her friends in the country.

"Voice of China!"

"Su Yue Appears, Denouncing the United States!"

"United States Internal Strife, Is Su Yue the Mastermind?"

Su Yue looked at these hot search terms and couldn't help but laugh, saying to Wang Linlin, "These titles are so silly!"

"This is already good! Look at the comments!" Wang Linlin then handed Su Yue the screenshots of the comments on her phone.

"Wow, Su Yue is amazing!"

"I'm not going to lie, on this matter, I firmly stand with Su Yue."

"Add one upstairs, who wouldn't stand with Su Yue? This great god finally gave us a good venting; those people are always pretending and acting arrogant."

"That's right, I was there, as soon as Su Yue's voice sounded, James's face turned green."

"Ask the one upstairs, how was the scene? Was Su Yue handsome?"

"Handsome! Impossibly handsome!"

Su Yue looked at these comments, feeling a bit amused and a bit helpless. He didn't even show his face, so how did they know if he was handsome? Was it based on imagination? Su Yue even started to doubt himself.

"It's fun, hurry up and eat the dumplings, I haven't eaten them in a long time." Saying that, Su Yue picked up a dumpling for Wang Linlin.

"You still have the mood to eat dumplings? You're so popular now!" Wang Linlin teased Su Yue.

She had always known in her heart that the person she liked was never an ordinary person.

Su Yue looked at Wang Linlin's sweet smile, and a warm current surged in his heart. He said softly, "Did I cause you trouble? My current identity, for you..."

Wang Linlin already had some understanding of Su Yue; she was always prepared to follow his steps, even though she once felt she might never catch up to him. Now, seeing Su Yue also show such concern, a ripple couldn't help but stir in her heart.

"What trouble did you cause me? Is it just having to cook an extra portion of food every day?" Wang Linlin tried to ease Su Yue's worries with a humorous tone.

"You... do you really not mind? My future is full of uncertainty." Su Yue decided to face this issue honestly; he didn't want to delay Wang Linlin because of himself.

"Of course I know, I've always known. Otherwise, why would I have been following you all along?" Wang Linlin looked at Su Yue, her eyes full of determination.

"You might not know, but after the college entrance examination, when you agreed to watch a movie with me, I already liked you. Thinking about it now, if you hadn't agreed back then, perhaps this feeling wouldn't have lasted this long." Wang Linlin stared closely into Su Yue's eyes, as if trying to penetrate his soul.

"Then, I really have to thank you properly." Su Yue was touched by Wang Linlin's sincere gaze and couldn't help but laugh.

It turned out that making a choice wasn't that difficult.

"So, what are we going to do now?" Wang Linlin pouted, took a bite of the dumpling she had made herself, and then asked, "Can we not go to the Central Intelligence Agency anymore?"

Su Yue looked at Wang Linlin's chubby cheeks and serious expression, his heart filled with happiness. "Well, we probably can't go to the Central Intelligence Agency. We'll just wait for the notice from above."

The disposition results for James and the others have not yet come down. Everyone at the Central Intelligence Agency is on standby, not knowing what their future holds, just like criminals waiting for a verdict.
