Chapter 4064 - 4083: Turning the Tables Is Just That Simple
Wang Yishan’s strength is average, and his will is even more so.
When Charming Erosion asked the key question, the fleeting panic on Wang Yishan’s face already gave the answer to Charming Erosion.
Although he was unwilling to admit it, when the little tricks were applied to him, he couldn’t hold out for ten seconds before he confessed.
He felt doomed to die, and even in death, he wanted a lighter end.
The people’s previous suspicions were correct.
The Wang Family Head was indeed the mastermind behind the Huang Family murder case. The hired killer was supposed to die cleanly and swiftly at the Huang Family, but the Huang Family’s quick decision to save someone prevented his death. This made the Wang Family wary and led to rapid follow-up arrangements.
When the Inspection Bureau got involved, Wang Yishan discovered that the person in charge was his rival Zhang Zhongjiu, and a new idea immediately formed in his mind.
He had a confidant use special means to contact Liu Chengjin, bribing him. If Zhang Zhongjiu found no results in his investigation, he could bear the blame for the Inspection Bureau and be the unlucky one, allowing him to do nothing; but if any findings emerged, he could prepare in advance.
Zhang Zhongjiu asked Lin Chen for help and extracted the image of the contact from the brain of the retainer killer. As the foe was elusive, originally like a mouse in the gutter, Zhang Zhongjiu had Liu Chengjin investigate to find the person.
After Liu Chengjin sold the information, Wang Yishan quickly made arrangements on his side.
Knowing he couldn’t escape, the contact was arranged to commit suicide voluntarily.
As for why the contact agreed, it was because his family was being controlled by the Wang Family; if he didn’t die, his wife and child would perish.
When the Wang Family chose people for their deeds, they naturally had backup plans, preventing situations where someone might retaliate. Hence both the killer and the contact decisively committed suicide.
Wang Yishan’s plan aimed first at severing any follow-up suspicions in the Huang Family murder case and second at framing Zhang Zhongjiu, hitting two birds with one stone, and he succeeded indeed.
The suspect had already been informed, delaying Zhang Zhongjiu. When the third team received a report and arrived, the suspect suddenly launched a threatening attack, prompting Zhang Zhongjiu to naturally counterattack. The suspect crashed into the Black Blade and died on the spot.
There was no surveillance at the scene to prove Zhang Zhongjiu’s counterattack or the suspect’s suicidal intent, leaving him unable to prove his innocence and inevitably getting arrested.
Even if doubts linger, if Zhang Zhongjiu can’t clear his own suspicion, he will likely serve some time in prison. More importantly, this incident ruins Zhang Zhongjiu’s prospects.
Considering Zhang Zhongjiu’s character, this move struck at his vital point, making it nearly impossible for him to be together with He Wei in the future.
Wang Yishan always traveled with seventh-level warrior bodyguards, yet he didn’t expect to fail so stealthily on the way home.
Although his own strength was average, his bodyguard Old Zhou seemed to have been subdued without any resistance.
Even if a level 8 martial artist had intervened, there should’ve been some struggle, some noise.
Wang Yishan was utterly baffled.
He couldn’t possibly envision that the opponent had an extremely powerful planetary will, Xingxing, whose simple Divine Soul Shock knocked Old Zhou out cold.
This was Xingxing holding back; otherwise, Old Zhou might have died instantly.
Though he was also a seventh-level warrior, compared to Lin Chen and other cultivators, his strength in the Divine Soul was on a different level entirely. Warriors focus on physical combat power, with a far weaker Divine Soul.
Lin Chen was equipped with various tricks now; dealing with a seventh-level bodyguard was a piece of cake. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
After Wang Yishan confessed, Charming Erosion moved again.
Not much time was wasted; Charming Erosion used Wang Yishan’s watch and sent a message to his confidant.
This person was the specific executor, a crucial link in the chain.
Upon receiving Wang Yishan’s message, the confidant acted promptly, came directly, and was apprehended cleanly.
During interrogation, seeing Wang Yishan had confessed everything, the confidant naturally confessed everything as well.
Charming Erosion disguised as Wang Yishan’s confidant, boldly returned home, and acquired the relevant evidence.
This confidant was not without his own schemes; fearing abandonment someday, he quietly kept evidence of Wang Yishan’s many wicked deeds.
Should Wang Yishan abandon him, this evidence would serve as his counterattack weapon, which now fell entirely into Lin Chen’s hands.
With the entire evidence chain completed, the investigation concluded.
Lin Chen not only cleared Zhang Zhongjiu’s suspicion but also uncovered the truth behind the Huang Family murder case, dragging Wang Yishan down as well.
Though the He Family might not care much—after all, to become a wealthy family, none are truly clean—at least, as far as He Wei is concerned, Wang Yishan’s scheming against Zhang Zhongjiu only strengthens her already unwilling stance.
Kill three birds with one stone!
Perfect!
Lin Chen dialed Zhang Hanying’s phone: "Ms. Zhang, the results are in."
Zhang Hanying was overjoyed: "Who is the mastermind?"
"The Wang Family, Wang Yishan."
Lin Chen recounted the story and ended, saying: "The murder case was orchestrated by the Wang Family Head, but this can’t be traced back to him. Even if the investigation continues, a scapegoat is bound to take the fall, so I didn’t pursue it further."
"Wang Yishan, his bodyguard, his confidant, and the bought Liu Chengjin are all in my hands, with all evidence sorted out. How do you think it’s best to proceed now?"
Zhang Hanying pondered and asked, "You haven’t exposed your identity, right?"
Lin Chen said with a laugh: "No, you can freely handle it; only you know of my existence."
Zhang Hanying sighed in relief, smiled: "Then this can be managed easily. Record these people and evidence on video, I’ll post it online to stir the pot, stripping them of any cover, then alert the Inspection Bureau and hand over the people and evidence."
"Once the situation escalates, the Inspection Bureau, to save face, will naturally handle it severely, and Zhongjiu will be released unconditionally."
Lin Chen had no intention to delve deeper; his commission involved finding the truth, vindicating Zhang Zhongjiu, and rescuing him.
"Alright!"
Lin Chen had Charming Erosion record a video according to Zhang Hanying’s requirements, and handed it over to her.
Zhang Hanying employed some techniques, posted the evidence online, leading to rapid dissemination and quickly causing a huge uproar.
The Inspection Bureau and Wang Family were both furious.
The Inspection Bureau exposed a mole, the Wang Family’s murder and framing all led to panic for a moment.
Once public sentiment peaked, Zhang Hanying alerted the Inspection Bureau, bringing back the detained individuals.
With irrefutable evidence, Wang Yishan and others couldn’t deny, even if they wished to conceal or evade culpability.
The most brilliant part was the evidence left by Wang Yishan’s confidant, containing records of notorious deeds beyond this incident, now also revealed.
Wang Yishan was utterly ruined.
When Wang Yishan was sent in, Zhang Zhongjiu, who was detained, was released.
The two met face-to-face in the hallway.
