In name only: I will break the chess game in Handong

"If you leaders can subdue Zheng Yihong and get her to talk, all the evidence will be clear."

After listening to Mai Jia's account, Tian Guofu and Luo Shanhe exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing surprise and delight.

What used to require a laborious investigation can now be accomplished through point-to-point interrogation, saving time and effort—it couldn't be smoother.

The problem in Zhongjiang can be solved without even much effort!

Chapter 473 Cleaning from High to Low

"Okay, Ms. Mai Jia, thank you for providing these materials and evidence. You can stay in the military area for a while, it will be safer. You can go home after we clear the fog over Zhongjiang."

Thanks a lot!"

"It's no trouble at all, no trouble at all. Leaders, it is I who should thank you. I'm not afraid of being laughed at by you, but if I hadn't met you two, I wouldn't have dared to reveal the evidence I had. Even handing it over to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection wouldn't have been an option."

Upon hearing this, Tian Guofu sighed.

"The situation in Zhongjiang is indeed quite dark, Ms. Mai Jia. But don't worry, the Zhongjiang Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will no longer turn a blind eye like it does now!"

Luo Shanhe also made a statement.

"It's not just the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection; with something like this happening, I think the Political and Legal Affairs Commission and the Public Security Bureau of Zhongjiang Province should also be replaced."

These leaders are used to being high and mighty and don't care about the people's affairs, so they should be overthrown by the people!

Upon hearing this, Mai Jia's throat moved as if she wanted to say something, but she stopped herself. This result was already good enough, wasn't it?

A rabbit will bite when cornered, a dog will jump over a wall when cornered, and Gao Mingyuan will lose his composure when cornered!

From day to night, Gao Mingyuan mobilized all his connections to search for Mai Jia's whereabouts.

But there was no news at all, as if he had vanished into thin air. The more this happened, the more Gao Mingyuan's heart pounded, and the stronger the feeling of impending storm became!

It was already dark outside the window. Sitting on the sofa, Gao Mingyuan smoked one cigar after another, finally relaxing his tense nerves. Just then, the door was pushed open.

"Has Mai Jia been found?"

Zheng Yihong paused for a moment upon hearing this, then shook her head. "President Gao, there is still no news about Mai Jia."

"Then what are you doing in here? Get out!"

Despite feeling wronged after being harshly scolded, Zheng Yihong did not argue back and simply opened the door and left.

The house was empty except for the faint sound of the air conditioner running. Just then, the phone rang abruptly.

Gao Mingyuan felt as if he had grasped a lifeline. He grabbed the phone, but when he saw who was calling, his heart sank again.

However, after calming myself down, I answered the phone.

"Provincial Governor Wang, it's so late, do you have any further instructions?"

“I’m calling you to ask if you’ve dealt with Mai Jia properly. I’ve already spoken to everyone else, but Mai Jia is the only woman who’s a bit out of control.”

Upon hearing this, Gao Mingyuan's lips curled into a bitter smile.

But he dared not tell the truth...

“Provincial Governor Wang, don’t you trust me to handle things?”

Mai Jia has been dealt with. By the way, Governor Wang, the atmosphere in Zhongjiang has been quite tense these past few days. To be on the safe side, I'm thinking of making a trip to Hong Kong to settle some financial issues!

"If you want to go, then go. Why are you telling me this?"

"Ahem, Governor Wang, I'm afraid I'm now also a key target of the working group's supervision. Under these circumstances, it's very difficult for me to have the opportunity to leave the country through formal channels."

Therefore, I can only rely on you!

Wang Zheng thought about it and had no doubts.

"You mean you want me to go through the process for you?"

“Provincial Governor Wang, those documents are dangerous. If they aren’t deleted, the task force might take notice…”

"Okay, I'll have the staff from the Provincial Public Security Bureau expedite the process for you tomorrow."

"Then thank you, Governor Wang!"

"No need to thank me, we're on the same page!"

After hanging up the phone, Gao Mingyuan's forehead was covered in sweat. "Every man for himself."

He sensed that the situation was becoming increasingly tense, especially with the disappearance of Maga, which seemed to be weaving a large net.

If Gao Mingyuan cannot escape Green Vine or even the country before the alliance is formed, he will not only face imprisonment, but also be shot!

"I hope that day never comes..."

Shaking his head, Gao Mingyuan suppressed his panic, even though he was already preparing to leave the country.

But to give up the assets he's worked so hard for all these years, no one would be willing to do so; everyone would definitely hold onto a sliver of hope!

In the darkness of night, others are also taking action!

In a black SUV, Hou Liangping stared straight ahead at the Changteng Capital Building. It was nearly midnight, but he still hadn't seen his target.

Half an hour later, Zheng Yihong finally dragged her tired body out of the building.

She lived relatively close to her company, so she didn't drive and walked to her residential area.

Zheng Yihong walked ahead, and Hou Liangping followed behind with his staff. Only after seeing Zheng Yihong enter the residential area did Hou Liangping and his men approach.

Hou Liangping walked faster, overtaking Zheng Yihong and blocking the way.

"Are you Zheng Yihong?"

When her name was suddenly called, Zheng Yihong couldn't help but scan the middle-aged man in front of her. She was certain that she didn't know him, but he could call out her name accurately.

"who are you?"

Hou Liangping smiled and took out two certificates from his pocket.

"This is my business card!"

The first thing shown was a business card. Staring at the words written on it, Zheng Yihong's face instantly turned pale.

"You are!"

"That's right, from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection!"

After saying that, Hou Liangping took out another document, an interrogation warrant. Hou Liangping would no longer use any schemes or tricks. Now that he knew that the woman in front of him was the key to breaking the deadlock, Hou Liangping was going to try out his interrogation techniques!

He didn't believe anyone else could withstand it!

"I……"

Zheng Yihong wanted to say something, but Hou Liangping had already waved his hand, and the black SUV slowly stopped next to him and several staff members.

"Get in the car!"

Without hesitation, Zheng Yihong could only follow Hou Liangping into the off-road vehicle, which drove all the way to the military region.

It's already around 11 p.m., and everyone except the sentries on duty has long since gone to bed.

However, Hou Liangping was still in high spirits!

In the interrogation room, Hou Liangping looked at Zheng Yihong, who remained completely calm, and couldn't help but chuckle.

"You're quite calm!"

Zheng Yihong chuckled dryly and said, "I don't even know what law I broke, yet you brought me here on trumped-up charges. I've done nothing wrong, so naturally I have nothing to hide!"

Hou Liangping understood.

Then, let's get straight to the point!

“Ms. Zheng, you don’t actually need to resist. You know better than I what the crime of obstructing interrogation is!”

This kind of cleverness is far from worth doing this for, don't you think?

Zheng Yihong always felt that Hou Liangping was just making empty promises.

Therefore, they still didn't give them a friendly look.

“I told you I knew nothing about it. I’m just an accountant at Changteng Capital. If you suspect there’s something wrong with the company, you can talk to the legal representative directly, instead of inviting me here under the guise of ‘having tea’!”

"That being said, Ms. Zheng, the facts of your illegal activities are already very clear. By the way, it was Mai Jia who said it: you are Gao Mingyuan's chief financial officer!"

Chapter 474 The Collapse of Zhongjiang

"Mai Jia?"

Upon hearing Hou Liangping's words, Zheng Yihong's heart skipped a beat, but she still chose to play dumb.

"Sir, I don't understand what you're saying!"

You won't give up until you've reached the Yellow River!

Seeing Zheng Yihong's stubbornness, Hou Liangping suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and his solemn expression relaxed.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it now. You've been by Gao Mingyuan's side for quite a while now, and I believe you're familiar with his way of doing things."

"Ruthless" wouldn't be an exaggeration. Why do you think Mai Jia was willing to cooperate with our investigation?

After saying that, Hou Liangping took out his phone and played the recording of Wang Zheng and Gao Mingyuan's conversation again.

Upon hearing the contents of the recording, Zheng Yihong's face turned pale.

"I believe you can judge the authenticity of this phone recording. After all, you've also had contact with Wang Zheng. It's just that there's a risk involved, so you have to get rid of Mai Jia."

Do you think Gao Mingyuan will become suspicious of you if you disappear for a day or two?

"A day or two?"

Zheng Yihong fell silent.

"To be precise, it's 24 hours, 48 ​​hours, or 72 hours."

Hou Liangping straightened his collar, took out his phone to check the time, and realized it was already very late.

"Alright, Ms. Zheng Yihong, thank you very much for your cooperation. It's getting late, so why don't you rest here for the night? This room is quite well-equipped."

After saying that, Hou Liangping got up and left. Dealing with this kind of person, neither coercion nor bribery will be very effective. Only when she is truly afraid and has weighed the pros and cons will it be useful.

Seeing that Hou Liangping was really going to leave, Zheng Yihong became a little anxious. She knew Gao Mingyuan's personality all too well.
