"Where are we going now?" At this moment, the man gazed at Zhi Gang with a vacant look in his eyes.
"To Dian Nan, to find the killer who murdered my brother and then avenge him," Zhi Gang spoke indifferently, his whole body radiating a murderous intent.
At this moment, a new Asura Buddha Ancestor was born, and he would become an unavoidable powerful foe in Ye Luoâs journey from this point forward.
In Zhonghai, outside the city government building, Ye Luoâs figure appeared. Two armed policemen were on guard here.
"Sir, may I ask who you are looking for?" one of the armed policemen asked, looking at Ye Luo.
"I am looking for Secretary Du Tianhao," Ye Luo replied.
"I am sorry, but may I know who you are and what business you have with Secretary Du?"
"Why is this so troublesome?" Ye Luo grumbled, taking out his phone to check, finally finding the number Du Tianhao had left him back when.
After he had cured Du Tianhaoâs fatherâs glaucoma, the latter had invited him for a meal at Zixuan Clubhouse and given him this phone number. The reason for his visit now was that he had heeded Mingyueâs advice.
Given Du Tianhaoâs credibility as Zhonghaiâs secretary, if he were to step forward and clarify the innocence of Ling Corporation and Meiyue Company, the public would surely believe, and the crisis facing the two companies could be completely resolved.
"Hello, Secretary Du? This is Ye Luo."
The call connected, and Du Tianhaoâs voice, which he hadnât heard in a long time, came through.
"Ah, Brother Ye, may I know what business you have in looking for me?" Du Tianhao asked warmly.
"I am currently outside your office building, and I would like to talk to you about something," Ye Luo said directly.
"Alright, Iâll have my secretary come and bring you in right now," Du Tianhao immediately agreed, and in less than a minute, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a suit, the very image of refinement, came out; it was Du Tianhaoâs secretary.
"Hello, may I ask if you are Mr. Ye Luo? I am Secretary Duâs secretary," the man walked over to Ye Luo and said with a smile.
"Yes, I am Ye Luo."
Ye Luo nodded and followed the secretary inside, while the two armed policemen wore expressions of amazement, each guessing Ye Luoâs identity to warrant personal reception by the secretary to the secretary.
Walking into the office building, Ye Luo felt a solemn aura. Passing by a room at that time, Shen Changqing suddenly appeared before him. Although Ye Luo did not recognize him, Shen Changqing had seen Ye Luoâs photo and recognized him.
Seeing Ye Luo here now, Shen Changqingâs eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
"Mayor Shen, hello!" the secretary greeted Shen Changqing.
And hearing the secretaryâs words, Ye Luo immediately realized this was Shen Familyâs headâs brother, Shen Changqing, the same person who used governmental power to target Mei Yue and Ling Corporation.
With these thoughts, a chill flashed in Ye Luoâs eyes as he watched Shen Changqing.
"Whatâs going on here?" Shen Changqing feigned confusion as he looked at the secretary.
"Oh, this gentleman is a guest of the secretary. Mayor Shen, we should be going now, the secretary is waiting," said the secretary.
Shen Changqing left the place with Ye Luo, his eyes slightly narrowed into a thin line, gleaming with light.
Upon arriving in an office, Ye Luo saw Du Tianhao seated in a chair, looking over some documents.
Seeing Ye Luo arrive, Du Tianhao stood up with a smile and said, "Brother Ye, it has been a long time since you last contacted me."
"Secretary Du, Iâve been quite busy lately, so my apologies," Ye Luo said indifferently.
"No worries. In fact, I should be congratulating Brother Ye. I hear you are now the Deputy Head of the Earth Group of the Special Security Bureau. In terms of rank, you are not the least bit inferior to a secretary like me," Du Tianhao said to Ye Luo with a smile at the corner of his mouth.
A flicker of unusual light passed through Ye Luoâs eyes as he replied, "It seems Secretary Du is very well-informed. However, I am here this time to ask for your help with a certain matter."
"Is it about Mei Yue and Ling Corporation?" Du Tianhao broached.
"It seems you already know, Secretary Du. Yes, it is about these two companies. I would like you to come forward and help prove the innocence of Mei Yue and Ling Corporation," Ye Luo nodded and said.
"Iâve looked into the matter, and there are indeed some problems. However, since Mayor Shen is in charge of this, I did not pry further. It seems there is quite a lot of insider information," Secretary Du said with a glitter in his eye.
Ye Luo let out a cold snort and said, "This is all a conspiracy between the Shen Family and that scoundrel Fang Yan from the Fang Family."
Following that, Ye Luo gave a rough account of the events, causing Du Tianhaoâs brows to furrow, his gaze flickering.
"I had not imagined there would be so much behind this. Shen Changqing, in pursuit of his personal desires, dared to do such bold and detestable things," Du Tianhao said coldly, his face displaying a hint of anger.
"Secretary Du, I have now secretly had the Special Security Bureau find all the evidence. Whatâs missing is an authoritative figure to reveal everything, which is why I would like to ask for your help," Ye Luo said to Du Tianhao.
"I will handle this matter, and I absolutely will not allow two companies that have contributed so much to Zhonghai to be persecuted by some to the point of collapse," Du Tianhao declared solemnly.
Half an hour later, Ye Luo left the City Government building with a mysterious smile on his lips, and then he received a call from Ling Qingya.
"Hello, Qing Ya?"
"Ye Luo, that bastard Fang Yan has gone mad. He has moved all of Fang Corporationâs subsidiary companiesâ funds and taken out a huge loan from the bank using many of Fangâs industries as collateral, pouring it all into the stock market to attack Ling Corporation. Now Ling Corporationâs stock is plummeting, and the losses are significant," Ling Qingya said urgently over the phone.
"How long can Ling Corporation hold on?"
"Given the current situation, no more than three hours. Once Ling Corporationâs stock completely collapses, bankruptcy will likely be the only option," Ling Qingya expressed in a grave tone.
"Three hours is enough. Hold on. Ling Corporation will definitely not be the one to go bankrupt," Ye Luo said confidently.
Two hours later, the Secretary of Zhonghai City, Du Tianhao, held a press conference. He announced that the cases involving Ling Corporation and Mei Yue Company had been thoroughly investigated, and declared that both companies were victims of a deliberate frame-up.
Furthermore, he revealed Chen Yaowenâs confession and recordings on the spot, exposing the secret conspiracy between him and Fang Yan, causing an uproar.
Mei Yue Company, too, was a victim of sabotage. The coroner who performed the autopsies on the five victims and the staff who investigated Mei Yue Companyâs products were all caught and confessed to fabricating evidence to frame Mei Yue intentionally.
The five victims did not die because of Mei Yue Companyâs products; it was all slander. And the mastermind behind this, the current person in power at Fang Corporation, was none other than Fang Yan.
