Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

A lawyer wearing gold-rimmed glasses followed the leading police officer into the room. He pushed his glasses and said calmly, "I'm the top lawyer at the Golden Eagle Law Firm. My last name is Dong."

Zhou Liu glanced at the lawyer named Dong. As the team leader here, this was not the first time she had dealt with a lawyer, and she knew how difficult the other party was.

Most top lawyers are jackals who have lost their humanity. They study the essence of the law in order to find loopholes.

However, no matter what means the lawyer used, she had a way to keep the person here for at least 24 hours, which was enough time to apply for a search warrant and conduct a round of search.

Zhou Liu was about to leave the interrogation room when he heard Lawyer Dong say, "Captain Zhou, please don't leave so quickly. I have something I need to discuss with you."

"I am very busy."

"Are you going to apply for a search warrant? If it's for this matter, then there's no need." Lawyer Dong pushed his glasses up. "Because I've already brought the real mastermind here."

"What did you say?" Zhou Liu turned around suddenly.

"I said, I've found the real murderer, and he's turned himself in." Lawyer Dong repeated, "He's being interrogated right now. Do you want to go check next door?"

Zhou Liu pushed the door open and walked towards another interrogation room.

Through the transparent glass, he saw a middle-aged man sitting in the room, his face pale, his head lowered, confessing to all his crimes.

"Who is he?" Zhou Liu turned around with a stern look in his eyes.

"He's the secretary of the board of directors of Daosheng Group... and the main culprit. In order to raise the share price of Daosheng Group and increase his own wealth, he secretly hired many assassins to eliminate the group's competitors. This time, he let Zhuang Sheng kill people in order to seize the undevelopable land held by the Ruan family." Lawyer Dong explained simply and clearly.

"Do you think I will believe this?" Zhou Liu asked.

"He's confessed to his crimes." Lawyer Dong pushed up his glasses, his smile filled with confidence and indifference. "Captain Zhou, you're a member of the Chang Ye Division. You need to respect the rules of the system and the judiciary. Now that the real culprit has been caught, the so-called suspect should be released."

"Zhuang Dao and Zhuang Sheng are brothers." Zhou Liu said word by word, "I suspect Zhuang Dao is also an accomplice."

"But the real murderer's testimony did not mention Chairman Zhuang at all." Lawyer Dong gestured for her to listen to the interrogation.

Through a layer of glass, the middle-aged man who served as the board secretary said, "This is all my personal action... It has nothing to do with anyone else in Daosheng Group. It's all me..."

Zhou Liu clenched his fists. Even if he wanted to continue investigating, he couldn't go directly to Zhuang Dao without going through the testimony of the real murderer. The search warrant he applied for would not be approved.

There is no doubt that the man in the interrogation room at this time is the scapegoat.

She had seen it more than once.

However, scapegoats can be divided into low-level and high-level ones.

The scapegoat in front of him was probably the highest grade of breeding stock. He had been prepared to take all risks for his employer from the beginning, and his position had been arranged in advance, just to be thrown out at this moment to serve as a substitute.

With the assistance of a top lawyer, I'm afraid all the details and loopholes have been dealt with in secret.

Zhou Liu just watched and listened as the person inside told him everything he knew bit by bit, explaining almost every detail. For a full half hour, he explained his hiring of killers and dirty cooperation, including the whereabouts of the money, every single transaction, and many details that sounded extremely real.

It would be strange to say that he was not involved.

Zhou Liu couldn't find any flaws, at least not in the short term.

At this time, the door of another interrogation room opened, and Zhuang Dao walked out with a big belly. Unlike his previous resentful look, he now returned to his smiling Buddha appearance.

Lawyer Dong handed over a cigar, cut off the cigar head, and took out a lighter to light it.

Zhuang Dao took a deep puff of the cigar, which was not enough to fill his lungs. He exhaled the smoke slowly, not as if he had survived a disaster, but more like a public contempt.

Zhou Liu watched the fat pig approach her step by step. She said, "Do you think you can get away with this? Do you think you can get away with it completely like this?"

"You need evidence when you speak, Mr. Zhou... If you keep talking nonsense like that, I'm going to sue you for defamation." Zhuang Dao flatly denied it, waving his cigar, the flaming tobacco in front of Zhou Liu as if in protest. "I'm not the murderer. You've got the wrong guy. Don't you deserve an apology?"

Zhou Liu narrowed his eyes, looking coldly contemptuous.

Zhuang Dao smiled cheerfully and said, "Forget it. I won't bother with you... not to mention that you can't do anything."

He deliberately leaned closer and said in a voice only Zhou Liu could hear, "Even if it really was me, what can you do? I control a group worth tens of billions, and countless lives and deaths. When I go to Shangjing and seize the rights to develop the film industry around Nanling, then the entire Nanling will be at my mercy... You want to keep a close eye on me, but can you?"

He reached out and patted Zhou Liu on the shoulder: "Sir Zhou, you are too young and too powerless. You have finally found this position, but you don't have much power to begin with. Don't lose it."

Zhuang Dao left, leaving behind a domineering back.

Many people watched him leave. No one spoke, no one tried to stop him. They just stared at him silently. Their eyes were as sharp as knives and swords, but mere glances were not enough to kill.

The old people in the Changye Division who are bound by the rules all know that he is the mastermind behind the scenes.

Everyone was waiting to bring the real culprit to court, but after a whole night of hard work and keeping an eye on Daosheng Group for so long, they finally caught the fox by the tail, but...

Caught up to wash the floor.

There was nothing to do except watch.

"Just let him go like this?" someone said unwillingly.

"What else can we do?" Ai Li swished his tail in frustration. "Can we just beat him to death right there? This guy is such a coward, and he brought so many bodyguards with him."

"That's probably not an ordinary bodyguard. To be honest, it's more like a border mercenary who lives on the edge of a knife."

"Let him go." Zhou Liu was surprisingly calm: "It's true that the other party is more prepared. We are still too passive."

"Next time I must..." Liu Xinghan clenched his fists.

"There won't be a next time." Zhou Liu shook his head and turned away.

The others looked at her back and their eyes dimmed when they heard these words. They thought that their boss had lost heart. It was understandable, as this blow must have been particularly heavy for her.

But no one noticed that Zhou Liu's expression did not change from the moment he saw the other party walk out of Changyesi.

Maybe there is some reluctance.

But the initial anger and unwillingness later turned into a kind of indifference and relief.

She looked at the other person as if he were a corpse.

What a shame.

she thought.

I wanted to take you to court myself.

Since you are unwilling to take the path of judicial justice, the only road waiting for you is a straight road to hell.

Chapter 98 Justice is only within range

The vehicle drove out of Guyu Street.

Zhuang Dao looked out into the dark night.

He was the only one in the car. Lawyer Dong had already left and his mission was completed.

However, before leaving, the other party left a message - leave for Beijing as soon as possible, don't delay.

His fingers were trembling, and he slammed his fists on the seat with a ferocious expression.

He was indeed almost caught and was almost detained by Chang Ye Si and unable to escape.

Fortunately, the backup plan left by that big shot saved his life...

This also means that none of his little movements could escape the other party's sight.

This is also a warning and a wake-up call.

——I can save you, or I can destroy you.

He seemed to feel a steel knife on his neck. He could act recklessly in the Changye Division because the other party really followed the rules. Where there are rules, there are weaknesses, because a gentleman can be deceived by tricks!

But this method is useless when facing villains and bandits.

The other party has no rules and no scruples.

"Boss, where are we going?" asked the driver and bodyguard.

"Go back." Zhuang Dao said in a low voice.

"Aren't you going to Beijing?" the driver asked curiously. He had also heard the lawyer's words: "Even though there are no trains or planes now, there's still time to go by sea."

"I'm not going," Zhuang Dao repeated, "I'm going back... I have to wait for someone."

The trusted bodyguard didn't say much and drove to the villa residence.

Zhuang Dao seemed normal, but actually he was not. He lowered his head and his eyes were red.

At this moment, he was full of murderous intent and anger.

He was filled with deep pain because of the death of his younger brother Zhuang Sheng.

Perhaps Zhou Liu would never have thought that the twin brothers Zhuang Dao and Zhuang Sheng had a very good relationship, and Zhuang Dao was really willing to repay Zhuang Sheng's life with his own.

His resentment in the interrogation room earlier was not feigned.

The twins shared the same fate. The younger brother Zhuang Sheng followed the followers of the evil star, while he became a disciple of a big man. The two sides acted openly and secretly. Now that Zhuang Sheng was lost, it was like losing an arm.

Without Zhuang Sheng, his value was greatly diminished.

What made Zhuang Dao even more crazy was that he didn't even have time to mourn the death of his brother, and he didn't even have time to collect his body.

What he wanted to find out more was... who killed Zhuang Sheng?

The death of his brother filled Zhuang Dao's heart with anger and murderous intent. Now he had one more thing he had to do, and that was revenge.

In the car, Zhuang Dao dialed a phone number. After the busy tone, he heard the sound of wind coming from the other end of the phone.

He got straight to the point: "Zhuang Sheng is dead."

On a road not far away, a man with a black bow on his back answered the phone, but there was no response, only silence.

Zhuang Dao continued, "He was murdered in Nanling."

"You said you could promise us three things... Now this is my last request."

"Find the person who killed Zhuang Sheng and avenge him!"

Three seconds later, the person on the other end of the line responded, "OK."

The phone hangs up.

Zhuang Dao dropped his phone and let out a hoarse, pale laugh. "Brother, watch carefully. I'll make that person... pay the price!"

……

Nanling City, entrance to the overpass.

It was already late at night and most people were sleeping soundly. It was rare for this overpass to be relatively quiet.

A young man walked out of the deserted subway station next to him, carrying a package in his hand.

After the package was opened, a small white-haired animal jumped out.

"Hey, you..." Di Ting twitched his ears, and Qin Xuezhao said helplessly: "Why do you have to fight so hard? Are you secretly in love with that girl?"

Bai Yu denied it, "I don't have a secret crush on anyone. If I did, as long as I confessed my feelings ten times in a row, there would be no girl I couldn't win over."

A gust of wind came, blowing up leaves and dust, and plastic bags floated in the sky.

The white moon was now covered by dark clouds. It was not going to rain, but it would probably be cloudy tomorrow.

Bai Yu narrowed his eyes: "The moon is dark and the wind is strong...it's a good sign."

"You are becoming more and more like a murderous and arsonist madman." Qin Xuezao complained.

"I'm not crazy, but murder and arson are not wrong." Bai Yu took over the conversation.

Qin Xuezao didn't support what Bai Yu was planning to do next, so he kept trying to persuade her: "Before you consider whether you can win the fight, before you consider the risks involved, can you please think carefully... If you do it, you might end up in a juvenile detention center? If you're locked up, how will you find the person who killed me?"

Bai Yu teased, "Think positively. What if your murderer was actually these two brothers? They don't look like good people. Wouldn't it be better if they were lucky enough to kill you?"

Di Ting tilted his head. "In the few memories I have left, these twins weren't actually bad people. I don't know why they became like this."

"The past is not important, what is important is the present." Bai Yu said calmly.

"You hate them?"

"I can't say I hate them, but I know that the world will be a better place without people like them - so let God forgive them for what they have done. All I have to do is send them to see God."

Qin Xuezao said earnestly, "This is violating the law by force—and the other party is not your enemy."

"They are not my enemies, so I can't kill them?"

"At least it's not your turn to do that." Qin Xuezhao still insisted on judicial procedural justice in his heart.

Bai Yu glanced at the empty street and looked far away at the end of the street. He seemed to see a convoy approaching.

"If possible, I don't want to dirty my hands."

"I also hope that Chang Yesi can bring him to justice."
