108: Chapter 108 Su Yun: Are you teaching me how to do things?
Public opinion was wavering.
Qin Yumo also had a complex look on her face.
If this were true, then the waters behind this case were far too deep.
Just then, Su Yun lightly tapped the table.
"Are you finished?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it had a strange penetrating power that suppressed Wang Jianping's roars.
"The story was well-told, and the emotions were spot on."
Su Yun said indifferently, "Unfortunately, the facts are a bit different from what you've said."
Wang Jianping looked up abruptly, staring fiercely at the screen. "What do you mean? Are you saying I'm lying? My parents were killed by the forced demolition!"
"Your parents indeed died from the forced demolition; that much is true."
Su Yun nodded. "But the one who killed them wasn't Zhao Donghai."
"Bullshit! He was the one in charge back then!" Wang Jianping bellowed.
"He was the person in charge, yes, but he wasn't the one who actually carried it out."
Su Yun picked up a piece of white paper from the table, which was densely covered with numbers and names.
He had jotted them down just now while switching the camera view to the desk.
"2014, Jiangcheng Old Town District Reconstruction Project, Case File Number..."
Su Yun read slowly, every word crystal clear.
"The demolition team leader at the time was named Liu Dabiao, nicknamed Biaozi."
"On the day of the incident, Zhao Donghai was at a meeting in the provincial capital and wasn't at the scene at all."
"Furthermore, the day before the incident, Zhao Donghai had issued a notice to suspend work for rectification because compensation hadn't been settled with several holdout households yet."
"However, in order to get the early completion bonus promised by the developer, Liu Dabiao secretly tore up the suspension notice and forcibly started work."
"That's what led to the tragedy."
Wang Jianping was stunned.
He stood with his mouth agape, his face full of disbelief. "You... you're talking nonsense! That's impossible! That's just an excuse for officials to protect each other!"
"Whether it's an excuse or not, the evidence speaks for itself."
Su Yun waved the paper in his hand. "The transfer records of Liu Dabiao receiving bribes from the developer, as well as the call recordings of him privately ordering the start of work, are all in the appendix of this case file."
"What's even more interesting is that this Liu Dabiao was also your wife's lover."
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire audience was in an uproar.
Wang Jianping was even more struck, as if by a bolt of lightning, freezing in place.
"When your wife ran off with the money back then, she was with this Liu Dabiao."
Su Yun continued to twist the knife, his tone devoid of any sympathy. "And that developer, in order to cover up the truth, bribed the deputy director at the time to suppress the matter and shift the blame to Zhao Donghai."
"As for Zhao Donghai, he received a disciplinary action because of this incident, was demoted and transferred away for three years, and only returned after part of the truth was uncovered."
"You've hated for ten years and sought revenge for ten years, yet you didn't even know who your real enemy was."
"Tell me, aren't you a joke?"
Su Yun's words were like sharp daggers, ruthlessly stabbing into Wang Jianping's heart.
Not only did they stab in, but they also twisted a few times.
Wang Jianping's face instantly turned deathly pale, his lips trembling, unable to utter a word for a long time.
He didn't believe it.
He was unwilling to believe it.
The hatred he had held onto for ten years, for which he had turned into a demon, was all just a complete misunderstanding?
Even worse, the real enemy was the bastard who had cuckolded him?
"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
Wang Jianping muttered to himself, his eyes beginning to glaze over.
"Captain Qin."
Su Yun ignored the broken man and turned to look at Qin Yumo. "You noted down the case file number I mentioned just now, right?"
Qin Yumo took a deep breath and nodded. "I've got it."
There was a hint of awe in the way she looked at Su Yun.
Just who on earth was this guy?
How could he know the details of a sealed internal case file from ten years ago so clearly?
He even knew the private lives of those involved like the back of his hand?
"That Liu Dabiao is in Jiangcheng right now; he opened a bath center called Jinbi Huihuang."
Su Yun continued, "Although the deputy director who took the bribe has retired, don't let him get away either."
"Since Master Wang wants to reopen the case so badly, we'll help him all the way to the end."
"This is what truly punishing evil and promoting good is all about."
Qin Yumo nodded solemnly. "Don't worry, not a single one will escape."
At that moment, the siren of an ambulance was heard.
Several medical staff rushed over with stretchers and took the three girls away.
Wang Jianping was also hauled up by SWAT officers and dragged toward a police car.
He was like a walking corpse whose soul had been snatched away, letting others handle him as they pleased, while his mouth kept muttering "impossible."
That extra, Zhang Qiang, had also recovered by now.
He bowed and cupped his hands toward the phone camera.
"Master! Thank you, Master, for saving my life! I'll definitely send you a silk banner later! The biggest one!"
"Forget the banner; just give me the cash equivalent."
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully assisting the police in solving a major serial kidnapping case, rescuing three hostages, and uncovering the truth behind the forced demolition injustice from ten years ago.]
[Calculating rewards...]
[Obtained merit points: 150.]
[Current merit points balance: 1700.]
Su Yun looked at the number, a satisfied curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.
This wave was worth it.
"Liu Dabiao, Jinbi Huihuang..."
Su Yun muttered these two names, his eyes narrowing slightly.
While performing the divination just now, he had taken a glance at Liu Dabiao's future.
This guy had more lives on his hands than just Wang Jianping's parents.
"I wonder how many merit points I could get if I took this guy down?"
While Su Yun was pondering this question, the phone on the table suddenly vibrated.
It was a text message.
The sender was an unknown number.
The content was just a short sentence.
"Some things are better left unknown."
"Keep your mouth shut if you want to live a long life."
Su Yun stared at the line of text and laughed.
He laughed very happily.
"Threatening me?"
His fingers tapped a few words onto the screen and sent them back.
"Are you teaching me how to do things?"
After sending the message, Su Yun immediately blocked the number.
Want to cause trouble?
Then let's see whose life is tougher.
