After Shangxin left Fang Yan's side, she went straight to work at Longtu Group. The more chaotic the situation was, the more they needed to be in charge of the headquarters. Since the Jiang Family had failed to acquire the shares of Longtu Group from Shangxin, they naturally wouldn't show any mercy to this company. The Lan Family and the Liu Family were facing a huge crisis, and it was still unknown how they were going to deal with Longtu Group. However, the more unknown it was, the more worried and uneasy it was.
When Jiang Shangxin's car turned left on Donghu Road, a truck full of furniture ran the red light and crashed into the side of the Mercedes-Benz that Jiang Shangxin was in.
Luckily, Shangxin discovered it in time and hurriedly instructed the driver to crash into the green belt in the middle of the road. The front of the truck broke the railing in the middle of the green belt, then it turned around and fled in the opposite direction.
The truck couldn't stop in time and crashed into the green belt. The body of the truck tilted, and the entire car overturned in the middle of the road. The large furniture on the car was scattered all over the ground, and the traffic on the entire road was blocked.
Jiang Shangxin's bodyguards rushed over and wanted to control the truck driver. However, by the time they arrived, the truck driver had already disappeared. It was as if he had vanished into thin air.
When Jiang Shangxin called Fang Yan to talk about this, Fang Yan told her not to go to the office and to find a safe place to stay. Jiang Shangxin insisted on going and said that if she was scared off today, she would fall into the trap of the people behind the scenes. Jiang Shangxin gritted her teeth when she talked about 'those people'. It seemed that this assassination incident had made her hate her 'family' to the core.
Fang Yan had no choice but to send a group of elites from Green Wolf to Longtu Group to be in charge of Jiang Shangxin's safety. Green Wolf agreed to Fang Yan's words and immediately sent a group of people to Longtu Group to carry out the mission.
Fortunately, Green Wolf had a strong foundation. Otherwise, under the situation where they needed manpower in all aspects, their small business wouldn't be able to hold on.
Compared to the huge crisis encountered by the Lan and Liu families, Chaoyan Technology was calm. Nothing unusual had happened. It was as if the Jiang family had deliberately forgotten about it, or they simply did not know the relationship between Fang Yan and Chaoyan Technology.
However, in the eyes of Fang Yan and Lu Chaoge, this was not a lucky thing.
Everyone knew that Chaoyan Technology belonged to Fang Yan and Lu Chaoge, as well as the Qin family. If the Jiang Family made a move against Chaoyan Technology, they would naturally anger the Qin Family and force the Qin Family to retaliate – this was clearly unwise.
The Jiang family didn't touch Chaoyan Technology because they didn't want to anger the Qin family. However, another possibility could not be ruled out. The Jiang family and the Qin family had reached a consensus, sacrificing Fang Yan and Lu Chaoge in exchange for control of the entire Chaoyan Technology.
Chaoyan Technology had the Rubik's Cube, which was coveted by the energy industry all over the world. The Rubik's Cube was a hen that could continuously lay golden eggs – even a family like the Qin Family could not resist the strong temptation it emitted.
If the Qin Family had really reached a secret agreement with the Jiang Family, it would be a disaster for Fang Yan.
"Don't think too badly of the outcome." Looking at Fang Yan frowning in front of the map of Huacheng, Lu Chaoge's heart ached. She tried to persuade him. "Maybe they are just afraid of angering the Qin Family. With Chaoyan Technology's current important position in the Qin Family's entire industry layout, attacking Chaoyan is equivalent to attacking the Qin Family. The Qin Family will definitely not tolerate it – they are very cautious. "
Lu Chaoge did not go to Chaoyan Technology to oversee things. After Jiang Shangxin got into a car accident on her way to work, Fang Yan stopped Lu Chaoge from going to work. He didn't want Lu Chaoge to encounter the same thing again. He didn't dare to take the risk.
He could lose, but he would never gamble with the lives of Lu Chaoge and the people close to him.
Moreover, even if Lu Chaoge didn't go, Chaoyan Technology could still hold on. The people from the Qin Family were all at their posts. Even if the Jiang Family attacked Chaoyan, the wealthy families would have a common language.
"I need to make a trip to the Yan Capital." Fang Yan said in a low voice, "I need to go to the Qin Family. I want to talk to them."
Lu Chaoge nodded and said, "Okay, you are going to talk to them."
It was pitch-black and gloomy. There was also a faint smell of blood in the air.
Du Qing had lived on the edge of a knife for almost half of his life, so he was very familiar with the smell of blood.
According to Du Qing's status, he shouldn't have been brought to such a detention room to be interrogated. He should have had better conditions. The connections he had made in Huacheng would have stood up for him and treated him as a distinguished guest. This was the happy prison life of a gang leader.
For those with money and power, there was a world of difference between outside and inside prison. But similarly, inside prison, there was a world of difference between their lives and those of ordinary prisoners. The treatment they received in prison was a life that many prisoners couldn't enjoy on the outside.
However, Du Qing obviously couldn't enjoy these benefits.
After he entered the building, he was locked into a separate and sealed room. The room was narrow. Other than a broken bucket for prisoners to relieve themselves, there was nothing else. There was no table, chair, or bed. He could only rest and sleep on the floor. Because the room was too small, he couldn't straighten his body. He had to bend his waist when he slept.
Du Qing didn't have any objections. He found a clean place and sat down. Then, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
The night was silent. No one came to disturb him.
After dawn, he was brought to this slightly larger interrogation room.
Du Qing knew that the show had begun.
When he was still a lackey, he would occasionally be arrested and locked up for a few days. Now that he thought about it, how many years had it been since he came to this kind of place?
Ten years? Or twenty years?
What a distant memory!
Clang —
The iron door of the interrogation room was pushed open. A thin man wearing glasses walked in. Two tall men in uniform followed behind.
After they came in, the iron door behind them closed with a clang.
The man with glasses stood in front of Du Qing and looked down at him. He smiled and said, "Boss Du, long time no see. You're still as elegant as ever."
Du Qing glanced at the man with glasses and said in a deep voice, "How can a down and out prisoner be called a boss? Captain Wang, don't make fun of me. "
"Boss Du is too modest. Who doesn't know that you're the underground king of Huacheng? You can summon tens of thousands of underlings to work for you with a stomp of your foot. Every day, you make a lot of money. Who doesn't give you some face?" Wang Dequan adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said jokingly, "I don't get it. I really don't get it. The mighty Boss Du came to the police station to turn himself in, and even fell into my hands. Boss Du, do you still remember our friendship in the past? "
"I remember." Du Qing nodded. "Back then, you came to my place to collect protection fees. My brothers lifted you up and threw you out."
"Du Qing, you didn't think that you would end up like this, did you?" Wang Dequan said coldly with a dark look in his eyes.
"Why wouldn't I?" Du Qing smiled lightly. "In our line of work, we can be killed by a bullet at any time. Being cut off or having our head blown off — what kind of ending haven't I thought about? Now I'm just sitting at a place I used to come to. It's already much better than I thought. "
"Du Qing, do you think you're just here to sit? Do you know who you've offended? " Wang Dequan laughed and said, "You've made friends with so many bigwigs, why didn't anyone call to intercede for you this time? Think about it, there are hundreds of people in this bureau. Why is it that it's my turn to interrogate you — Du Qing, you're about to die, don't you know? "
Du Qing looked at Wang Dequan and said, "I said, I know some things better than you — you can ask, I'll tell you everything I can, and I won't say a word that I can't say."
Pa —
Wang Dequan threw a file in his hand on the iron table in front of Du Qing and said, "Du Qing, this is the record of your surrender. Think about it, did you miss anything?"
Du Qing didn't touch the documents and said, "I've said everything that should be said."
"Think about it again —" Wang Dequan took out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up, saying, "Think about it carefully. If you can't think of it, my subordinates are happy to help you recall — our conditions here are simple, some of our interrogation methods and tools are not as advanced and ruthless as your guys who play dirty, but — if Boss Du is willing to give us some advice, I think we will definitely improve. Don't you think so? "
Du Qing looked up at Wang Dequan and said, "I know what you want."
"Boss Du is one of the smart people in Huacheng, of course you know what I want."
"You want me to bite people. Bite people who don't matter. "
"How can you say people who don't matter? He's a big shot in Huacheng, even Boss Du has to follow his lead. I can't afford to offend this kind of person. However, since he has a close relationship with Boss Du, how could he not have a part in the things you've done? Don't you think so? "
"I did it." Du Qing's fingers lightly tapped on the table and said, "It has nothing to do with him."
"You see, you're really not smart to say that —" Wang Dequan shook his head and sighed.
He gave a look, and immediately a tall man pressed a stack of newspapers on Du Qing's back. Another policeman held a metal rod and smashed it on the newspapers.
Bang —
The newspapers made a dull sound, and Du Qing's body suddenly fell forward.
Du Qing's chest bumped against the metal table, but he quickly straightened his back and straightened his spine.
He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked at Wang Dequan and said, "You don't care."
