Chapter 124: Chapter 121: When the Tree Falls, the Monkeys Scatter

Zhang Lu bypassed Director Sun, not even glancing at him, completely ignoring him.

"This is bad, if this goes wrong, my career is over." Director Sun wiped off his cold sweat.

In his heart, he hated Liu Chan to the core, wishing he could take a pill of regret, he’d never have gotten involved in Liu Chan’s dirty business.

Zhang Lu paused slightly next to the SWAT Captain, instructing, "Put away all the guns for me."

"Yes!" came the firm reply, as the guns were uniformly holstered.

Zhang Lu didn’t acknowledge Captain Mao, heading straight to Ye Fan’s side.

"I had guessed he would call for reinforcements. Until the last moment, we hoped for luck; now it’s time to give up. We’re doomed." Director Sun and the others thought, even those who had died were included.

Director Sun, Captain Mao, Director Zhu, and Wu Dahai all grew to hate Liu Chan intensely.

"Was I on time?" Zhang Lu asked softly.

Seeing Zhang Lu’s attitude towards Ye Fan, Director Sun and the others felt a tremor in their hearts, "Her orders we must obey unconditionally, and she is treating him so respectfully. Who on earth is he? Could it be that his status in the organization is higher than hers?"

At this thought, Director Sun and the others even felt like jumping off a building, constantly blaming Ye Fan, "You’re a big shot, why didn’t you reveal your identity earlier? If you did, we would have restrained ourselves a bit, wouldn’t this have saved us a lot of trouble?"

Director Sun and the others realized they were involved in Ye Qingping’s family affairs. Now, they’re sure it’s time to settle accounts one by one.

Their fate is bound to be grim, if not death, then at least a heavy penalty as per organization rules.

"Just in time." Ye Fan said lightly, "If you had been a little later, I would have acted, and some innocent people would have been hurt by then."

"If I had known, I would have come a quarter of an hour later, waited until you’d finished, and then come to clean up for you. How great would that be?" Zhang Lu expressed disappointment, lamenting her poor timing.

"What kind of talk is that?" Ye Fan was immensely frustrated.

"True feelings, getting you to owe me a big favor is not easy. Clearly, I came too early. Such a small issue is too simple for me, not enough for you to owe me a favor." Zhang Lu said sincerely.

"It’s already a big favor, what kind of logic do you have in your head?" Ye Fan was extremely exasperated.

In Zhang Lu’s heart, the more favors Ye Fan owed, the better. Thus, in future, when Zhang Lu needed Ye Fan, he would have no excuses. Ye Fan sensed this from Zhang Lu’s serious words, feeling particularly troubled.

Their conversation left those who heard it filled with confusion, unable to grasp the situation.

Especially the SWAT officers, their hearts trembled. According to Ye Fan’s words, if Zhang Lu had been a bit late, they’d likely be the ones lying on the ground groaning, sustaining serious injuries meant to neutralize threats and result in a loss of combat capability.

They gradually believed Ye Fan had such capabilities, thus looked at Zhang Lu with gratitude.

"What happened here? Tell me." Zhang Lu went straight to the point.

Ye Fan briefly explained the situation at home and at the factory based on the facts.

"Leave it to me." Zhang Lu said with a cold smile, then walked over to Liu Chan.

"I’m going to ask you a few questions, hope you answer truthfully. I won’t ask twice, make sure you listen clearly, if you deceive me, I have a thousand ways to end you." Zhang Lu sternly warned.

"Yes, yes, yes, I will speak the truth without reserve!" Liu Chan nodded in terror.

He also realized the gravity of the situation; if kept within control, even if someone died, it’d be a minor issue, but now that a big figure like Zhang Lu was here, with even Director Sun being so respectful, he dared not hide anything further.

"Who have you bribed and for how much?" Zhang Lu asked bluntly.

"Chief, I will answer honestly, and have pledged the factory to pay the overdue workers’ wages, do you think the crime I’ve committed is severe, how many years can I be sentenced?" Liu Chan asked cautiously.

"Bribery in itself is not much, but those who accept bribes commit serious crimes." Zhang Lu commented indifferently.

"Chief, I’m guilty beyond redemption, I have made someone break Ye Qingping’s leg, I’m addicted to gambling, frequent young girls, and collude with underworld people, committing every evil possible, my crimes are many, enough to make my imprisonment longer, right?" Liu Chan now just wanted to spend his life in jail, at least his life would be safe there, otherwise, he’d surely face a terrible death outside.

His actions dragged Director Sun, Wu Dahai, and Director Zhu into the mess.

Just Wu Dahai’s intense hatred alone was enough to drive him to ruin, thus in order to live, only in prison was safe, so now he only wanted to confess more.

Escaping from Wu Dahai’s clutches was impossible.

"A sentence of twenty to thirty years is no problem." Zhang Lu, understanding Liu Chan’s intentions, showed some patience.

"Great, I can spend it in prison." Liu Chan showed an unusual kind of joy.

Without hesitation, he said, "Director Sun and Brother Hai took one million, Captain Mao and Director Zhu took a hundred thousand."

Liu Chan exposed the four people who had accepted his bribes.

Every man for himself, or the heavens will destroy you.

He now only considered his own interests, ignoring everything else.

"Liu Chan, you bastard, you’re spitting lies, what evidence do you have? Accusing me falsely comes with consequences." Director Sun roared.

"Bastard!" Captain Mao’s face turned livid, almost bleeding, he wished to devour Liu Chan alive.

Among the four, Director Sun, Captain Mao, and Director Zhu, just the issue of accepting bribes would be severely punished.

Wu Dahai felt assured, he only hit someone, nothing big, besides, he also got beaten, just a minor issue.

"Of course I have evidence, a crafty rabbit has three burrows, let alone a person, dealing with you, I must be cautious, otherwise, if you frame me, who would I reason with?" Liu Chan was determined to oppose Director Sun and others.

"You dog, you really caused lots of trouble." Director Sun and the others reluctantly closed their eyes, with their hearts bleeding.

"Director Sun, you are suspected of accepting bribes, allowing your subordinates to threaten and beat good people, colluding with evil-doers, your crime is aggravated."

"Captain Mao, as a law enforcer, knowing the law and breaking it, harming civilians, treating the masses like fish and meat, your crimes are despicable."

"Director Zhu, as a doctor, driving patients away, arbitrarily charging exorbitant fees, what are your intentions?"

"And Wu Dahai, the executioner."

"Arrest them all, deal with them according to law." Zhang Lu said indignantly.

"Yes!" The SWAT team sprang into action.

[A salute of gratitude to esteemed [Perhaps No Expectations] for the reward, thank you... mwah]
