My sister broke off her engagement to marry someone richer? My older sister married me and became in

Wang Jianguo strode into the encirclement.

The hard-soled police boots creaked as they stepped on the cinder ground.

He ignored the forestry security officers who were squatting on the ground.

His gaze swept past the crowd and landed directly on Gao Jianjun's face.

That gaze felt like it was being pulled back and forth by a toothed saw blade.

Gao Jianjun felt a layer of white sweat seeping out on his back.

The veins on his forehead throbbed uncontrollably.

The excitement that had been building up since the early hours of the morning had now turned into an inexplicable fear.

The development of events was completely beyond his comprehension.

Even if Lu Qingshan went to report the case and seek help, it should be the county public security bureau that collects evidence and verifies the facts.

What kind of logic is it to directly surround someone reporting a crime with guns?

Gao Jianjun forced himself to catch his breath.

He gripped the flashlight in his pocket so tightly that his knuckles ached from the pressure.

We need to find a plausible reason.

We need to salvage this out-of-control situation.

Yes, Lu Qingshan definitely took advantage of a loophole in the Public Security Bureau's system.

This kid pulled a fast one, accusing the villain first.

As long as this batch of timber is kept in the warehouse yard, even a god would sentence Lu Qingshan to death.

Having figured out the stakes, Gao Jianjun let out a sigh of relief.

He straightened his previously hunched shoulders.

His expression changed to one of resolute determination, as if he were willing to sacrifice his own family for the greater good.

"Director Wang, you've made a big fuss about this; perhaps you've misunderstood the situation."

Gao Jianjun put his hands behind his back, adopting the demeanor of the second-in-command of the forest farm.

"Our security department received a genuine, real-name report from a member of the public."

"They say that hidden in this dilapidated workshop in the western suburbs is a century-old red pine tree that the government just allocated."

He pointed to the abandoned warehouse with its door wide open.

"Look over there."

"The entire yard is piled high with strategic materials stamped with the bureau's official seal!"

"That kid Lu Qingshan is taking advantage of his position as deputy section chief."

"They engaged in rampant embezzlement, moving timber into their own homes in the middle of the night."

"This is ruthlessly undermining our country's foundation!"

The more Gao Jianjun spoke, the more confident he became.

"We brought people here to help the forest farm recover its losses."

"You really can't point those dozen or so guns at your own comrades."

Li Jianye, who was standing nearby, seized the opportunity to come closer.

He hunched over, smiling apologetically at Wang Jianguo.

"Director Wang, Director Gao's every word is for the public good."

"The stolen goods were piled up right there in the yard."

"Lu Qingshan is desperate; he's using you as a shield."

"You must keep your eyes open and not fall for this unscrupulous middleman's tricks."

Lu Qingshan sat on the broken stool without moving.

The black-backed vicious dog, Qingwei, which was half a person's height, was lying at his feet.

A low snort rolled down Qingwei's throat, its green eyes fixed on Gao Jianjun's neck.

Wang Jianguo completely ignored Li Jianye.

He turned to look at Lu Qingshan, who was scraping mud off the soles of his shoes with a hunting knife.

"Section Chief Lu."

"They came to our door, specifically accusing you of stealing a large piece of public timber."

"The irrefutable evidence is all piled up in the yard."

"How do you plan to reply?"

Lu Qingshan wiped the cleaned hunting knife on a rag a couple of times.

"Director Wang, I dare not take the blame for such a huge mistake."

Lu Qingshan stood up and patted the dust off his hands.

"You know, my new factory doesn't even have a single piece of wood to start a fire."

"Deputy Director Gao felt sorry for me and went to great lengths in the middle of the night to send someone to deliver the goods to my door."

"It would be so impolite of me, as a junior, to refuse these dozens of cubic meters of fine timber."

Gao Jianjun was so angry at these barbed words that he started breathing heavily.

The flesh on his face was trembling.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

Gao Jianjun tore through the leader's disguise and directly swore.

"They stole something and then dared to turn around and accuse others!"

"You're spouting nonsense! Do you really think the police station is your private property?"

He immediately took two steps closer to Wang Jianguo.

"Director Wang, you heard everything."

"This person not only had the audacity to steal and sell state assets, but also dared to openly fabricate facts to slander forest farm officials."

"A fire broke out at the No. 6 lumber yard last night."

"It's obvious that this gang of thugs started the fire to cover up the crime!"

Lu Qingshan burst out laughing when he heard this.

He took out matches from his pocket.

With a "hiss," he lit a Yingchun brand cigarette.

"It's a real shame that Director Gao's storytelling skills aren't used for storytelling under the overpass."

Lu Qingshan exhaled a puff of green smoke.

"I said the allocation order was burned, and you said I brought the wood back."

"Then I'd like to ask, none of my thirty-odd workers have ever left the factory."

"Did these massive logs, weighing tens of tons, grow legs and walk in by themselves?"

Gao Jianjun was momentarily speechless.

But he immediately produced false evidence that had been prepared the night before.

"Stop with the nonsense!"

Gao Jianjun stretched his neck and roared in his hoarse voice.

"Our forestry security department has plenty of witnesses!"

"Ma Laosan and his crew from the loading and unloading team saw it with their own eyes at the intersection last night!"

"I saw you with my own eyes driving several beat-up trucks without license plates, hauling timber out!"

Gao Jianjun's spittle flew wildly through the air.

"There are witnesses and physical evidence; this case is a sure thing!"

"We are heroes who protect national property!"

"Director Wang, if you're going to arrest people indiscriminately, even if I, Gao Jianjun, die right here today, I'll still take this case all the way to the provincial level!"

This performance of singing, recitation, acting, and martial arts even excited the security officer who was squatting on the ground.

Sun Jianguo even struggled to get up from the ground.

He was shouting that he would fight Lu Qingshan to the death.

The abandoned factory suddenly fell silent.

The only sound was the whistling of the wind blowing through the hall from not far away.

Wang Jianguo stood quietly in the very center of this farce.

He didn't rush to stop Gao Jianjun.

I just stood there with my hands behind my back, quietly watching him go crazy.

Gao Jianjun continued shouting until his voice became hoarse and his lips were dry, cracked, and white.

Wang Jianguo slowly straightened his collar.

"You've been rehearsing these lyrics for quite a while, haven't you?"

A seemingly random sentence left Gao Jianjun frozen in place.

He didn't understand what Wang Jianguo meant.

I had no choice but to nod, even though I was reluctant.

"Every word I said is true. Please, the police, take charge."

Wang Jianguo turned his head away and stopped looking at him.

"Alright."

Wang Jianguo gestured with his chin toward the criminal police captain.

"They all surrendered their weapons."

"Gao Jianjun, Li Jianye, and Sun Jianguo, these three ringleaders of the troublemaking, put them in handcuffs behind their backs."

The moment the words landed.

Several strong and burly criminal police officers rushed into the circle like hungry tigers pouncing on their prey.

Sun Jianguo had only knelt down halfway.

He was hit hard on the back of the head.

Two plainclothes officers grabbed his arms from the left and right.

Press down smoothly.

Sun Jianguo's massive body crashed to the ground.

A long, bloody mark appeared on half of his face from the sharp coal dust.

"Oh no, the police have killed someone! They've arrested the wrong person!"

Sun Jianguo's voice changed from howling.

The cold, steel handcuffs snapped shut, locking his wrists firmly.

Li Jianye was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.

A suspicious water stain appeared under his crotch.

He can't even speak a complete sentence.

He was dragged aside and handcuffed by the police like a dead dog.

The two strongest criminal police officers walked towards Gao Jianjun.

She grabbed his arm and roughly twisted it behind his back.

The pain of the iron ring digging into his flesh finally brought Gao Jianjun back to his senses.

"Why should I?!"

Gao Jianjun twisted his shoulders like a madman.

Its eyes were bloodshot, like a wild boar cornered.

"I'm here to report a crime!"

"That's fucking stolen goods, are you blind?!"

"Your Public Security Bureau colluded with that bastard Lu Qingshan to fabricate your story!"

He was cursing at the top of his lungs.

"You're treating human life like dirt! I'm going to report you to the higher-level disciplinary committee!"

Wang Jianguo took two steps forward.

The overwhelming pressure emanating from the iron-fisted bureau chief crashed down on Gao Jianjun.

"Go report me to the disciplinary committee?"

Wang Jianguo looked at him coldly.

He slowly reached his hand into the left pocket of his shirt.

"Gao Jianjun, may you spend your next life writing complaint letters in a labor camp in Northwest China."

Wang Jianguo pulled his hand away.

He was holding an old, black, hardcover notebook in his hand.

That was the forestry station tent wrapped in plastic.

Right in front of Gao Jianjun's bloodshot eyeballs.

Wang Jianguo, holding the notebook between his fingers, gently patted his cheek.

"Didn't you ask me why I arrested you?"

Wang Jianguo's voice boomed across the open space.

"If your eyes aren't blind..."

"Take a good look at what this is."
