Chapter 438: 476

Chapter Four Hundred and Seventy-Six

Zhao Donglai quickly became aware of the situation, only to discover that one of Long Xiaoshan’s women was actually from Baixi Village.

Moreover, his brother-in-law had a conflict with the second son of Su Songwang over a woman and was almost beaten to death.

No wonder Long Xiaoshan, an Instructor of the Special Action Division, was so fixated on a mere village secretary.

With this connection in mind, Zhao Donglai felt even more urgent. To avoid any misjudgment by the Special Action Division, he personally took charge in Baixi Village, set up a temporary investigation center, and began the interrogation.

The village tyrant group led by Su Songwang was immediately detained, and numerous police officers took action, raided Su Songwang’s house, and captured all members of his crime gang.

The villagers of Baixi Village finally realized that change was coming.

The dark cloud that had loomed over their heads for decades was finally starting to clear.

The village loudspeaker started announcing the arrest of Su Songwang’s family, with Zhao Donglai himself taking the lead to encourage villagers to bravely step forward and testify against the evil deeds of Su Songwang’s family, offering cash rewards to informants.

The villagers, initially frightened and skeptical,

seeing the crime gang of Su Songwang handcuffed on the threshing ground at the entrance of the village, looking utterly dejected while surrounded by armed police officers on vigilant guard, finally let go of their last bit of fear and began reporting to the police one after another.

From the father’s generation, the Su family had been village secretaries for over thirty years.

In those thirty years, they had committed so many heinous crimes through deceit and oppression of the villagers.

Most of the villagers had been bullied and humiliated at some point.

Within only half an hour of investigation, the crime files were already shockingly extensive.

Dozens of mineral caves occupied, and hundreds of acres of villagers’ land taken.

Just the number of villagers who had accidents and disabilities in the mines over the decades added up to over a hundred, with not a single case of compensation.

There were also more than a dozen deaths and disappearances resulting from conflicts with Su Songwang’s family.

Countless women had been violated by members of the Su family.

One old crime after another was uncovered.

Zhao Donglai’s face was extremely grim. The investigating police officers felt deeply distressed and furious. How could such a minor village secretary, not even comparable to the lowest ranking official, have reigned so tyrannically for so long in a small mountain village, and committed so many crimes that it was impossible to record them all?

“Instructor Long, Division Chief of the Criminal Department, I must apologize to you. Under my jurisdiction lay such a vicious gang, committing such great evils without my notice. I have neglected my duty, and I will surely give Instructor Long a proper explanation.” The more Zhao Donglai thought, the more he felt his head ache. If the Special Action Division wouldn’t let this go, he would be done for—at the very least, he’d receive a penalty.

“You’re not to give an explanation to me personally, but to the villagers of Baixi Village, and to the national emblem on your cap. Look at these criminal facts—some date back twenty to thirty years. All these years, all these crimes… has really no one noticed at all, or did some people intentionally turn a blind eye? You can wake up someone who’s sleeping, but you can never awaken someone who’s pretending to sleep,” Long Xiaoshan reprimanded, not sparing any mercy as he sat there.

“Yes, yes, I will definitely explain to the villagers of Baixi Village,” Zhao Donglai said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

…

Standing not far away, Su Wu looked on with admiration and envy, whispering to Su Wan beside him, “Sis, did you see that? How awesome brother-in-law is! Do you know who that is?”

Su Wan was also filled with shock and confusion.

She knew Long Xiaoshan was quite wealthy, capable of doing business with the Lily Hotel, and later rumored to have partnered with a little Superman from Hong Kong Island to run a farm.

But even with his wealth, Long Xiaoshan was still just a businessman.

She thought she knew Long Xiaoshan, since she had witnessed him when he was down on his luck and couldn’t even afford a 20-dollar hotel room.

But now, she really didn’t understand anymore.

It hadn’t even been half a year, not even a few months.

“Little Wan, tell mom and dad, what kind of background does Xiaoshan… no, Mr. Long have? This… this…” Su Wan’s parents looked worried and fearful. Being honest farmers, they were suddenly faced with the realization that their daughter’s man was such an astonishingly influential figure. Truth be told, they were overwhelmed by a lower-class individual’s panic and fear.

They were afraid of any missteps in hosting such a significant figure, worried that he might lose his temper. Even as folks from the countryside, they understood a simple truth: it’s as perilous to serve a lord as to tend a tiger.

Although Long Xiaoshan had been very polite to them, being particularly courteous since yesterday and today, and seemed to have great affection for their daughter,

they had also personally witnessed Long Xiaoshan’s ferocity when dealing with the Protection Mineral Team, casually breaking limbs, crippling life-essential parts, and killing a Protection Mineral Team member with a single gunshot without blinking an eye.

The grace and favor of the mighty are unpredictable as thunder and rain.

Facing such a significant figure who could easily overturn situations, they felt deeply uneasy and even dared not directly address Long Xiaoshan by his name.

Su Wan, looking a bit pale, said, “Dad, Mom, I, I don’t know either. I only know he does business in Hechuan City; I’m not very clear about the rest.”

“Little Wan, what exactly is your relationship with him at the moment? We’re just a small family; it’s inappropriate to be involved with such an influential person—your parents are worried you might be mistreated,” the Couple Long Dashan said with concern.

“Parents, why worry? Brother-in-law treats us very well,” Su Wu said carelessly.

“What do you know? Silly boy,” Mother Su interjected, “Haven’t you seen on TV that influential people marry their equals? Those from lesser families are often just used by the powerful for affairs. The lucky ones might get kept outside as mistresses; others are just sent away with a sum of money, and end up carrying a child…”

Su Wan’s complexion grew paler as she heard this. She forced a smile and said, “Mom, you’re overthinking it. Xiaoshan and I have nothing between us, just friends from before. Don’t worry, there’s really nothing between us,” she insisted, as if trying to convince herself of the fact as well.
