Just a single fingerprint was enough to land Huo Cheng in jail.
However, without other evidence, it was simply impossible to convict him. Moreover, Officer Gao retrieved the surveillance video from outside Mr. Huo's company. He learned the time Mr. Huo left on that day and realized it was completely impossible for him to have committed the crime.
That's why the charge was quickly overturned.
As soon as Huo Cheng got into the car, his face instantly turned cold.
"To the company," he ordered.
"Mr. Huo?" Chen Fang was so shocked that his pupils dilated significantly. It turned out that Mr. Huo had asked him not to tell the young mistress that he was back.
Originally, Chen Fang thought Mr. Huo wanted to surprise the young mistress. Now it seemed that Mr. Huo simply didn't want to go home?
Such a reasonable speculation seemed so strange...
Still, he followed Mr. Huo's order. With a turn of the steering wheel, the car headed in another direction.
Huo Cheng pursed his lips and stared ahead. Anyone who knew him well would surely recognize that this expression meant he was extremely angry.
He had learned that Gu Sisi had been framed again, although she was soon proven innocent.
It seemed that even his voluntary imprisonment couldn't stop the other party's scheme.
Well, it was time to make the other side lose completely.
He squinted his eyes, hiding a hint of danger in his pupils. But when he looked up again, his eyes were clear, as if what had just happened was an illusion.
Zheng Xiaoyun was in a daze all day. After work, she left with the crowd. Standing on the street, she squinted her eyes.
Her fingernails dug into her palms, and her teeth bit her lips until they bled. Her eyes were full of bloodshot.
Just in one day, her original charm had completely disappeared.
Her haggard face gave her an air of a vampire, gloomy and disoriented.
She dialed a number.
"Get revenge on someone for me. I'll agree to any terms," she said, as if making a deal with the devil and selling her soul.
The person on the other end agreed. Zheng Xiaoyun sat quietly in the park, waiting with a calm look in her eyes.
Soon, the phone rang.
A voice mixed with static came through.
"We can't find the person. He's already been arrested by the police."
The call ended, but Zheng Xiaoyun was still in a daze. Then she burst into wild laughter, tears streaming down her face.
"Karma! This is karma! Hahaha..."
Liang Yunlong was indeed in the police station. Unlike his usual uniform, he was wearing civilian clothes.
Sitting across from him was Officer Gao, whom he had met earlier that morning.
"Now that the evidence is conclusive, you're under arrest," Officer Gao said coldly.
"What evidence?" Liang Yunlong tried to struggle, but was held down by two policemen behind him.
Officer Gao let out a soft laugh and looked at Liang Yunlong. "You want evidence? I'll show you."
He clapped his hands, and two people walked in from outside. Liang Yunlong paused when he saw them.
"Who are they?"
Both of them had their heads down, shrinking back and trembling. Liang Yunlong was absolutely certain that he had never seen them before.
"It doesn't matter if you don't recognize them. Come in!" Officer Gao shouted. Two more people were brought in from outside.
This time, Liang Yunlong stared at them with his mouth open.
"I did it to protect myself. It was all for self - protection," one of them howled.
This person was the owner of the bar. Before Liang Yunlong could say anything, Officer Gao said seriously, pointing at the two people Liang Yunlong didn't recognize. "These two are the ones who carried out the attacks directly, and these two are the ones you really bribed. According to their confessions, you were behind both of these cases.
Moreover, you must also tell us the source of the poison in these two incidents. You were a police officer before. You should know very well the consequences of not cooperating, right?"
The person bribed on the set had cost Huo Cheng a great deal of energy.
Since there were a large number of floating population in the crew and there were no surveillance cameras, the investigation was quite difficult.
"It's you?" Liang Yunlong was soon visited in jail.
Sitting outside was Huo Cheng. In just one day, the two men's positions had completely changed.
Huo Cheng didn't try to hide it. He simply said, "It's me."
Liang Yunlong shook his head hesitantly and stared at Huo Cheng. "Who are you?"
"Huo Corporation. Who do you think I am?" Officer Gao walked in and waved at the prison guard behind Liang Yunlong, who then left.
"The boss of Huo Corporation?" Liang Yunlong asked uncertainly.
Officer Gao smiled. "You've offended someone you shouldn't have."
The meaning was clear. As for why Liang Yunlong didn't know the identity of the criminal in the case he was handling, the reason was simple. He was just too complacent.
Or maybe he knew the person was innocent and was just a scapegoat, so he didn't pay much attention.
It was only then that Liang Yunlong realized that he had planted a hidden danger for himself from the very beginning.
"So, you came to tell me this?" There was a sarcastic smile on his lips.
Now he could only blame his bad luck.
"Who's the mastermind behind you?" Huo Cheng got straight to the point.
This was the real culprit he needed to find.
"Humph. Why should I tell you?" Liang Yunlong's attitude didn't change at all after learning Huo Cheng's identity.
"Don't you want to reduce your sentence?" Officer Gao asked in confusion.
The smile on Liang Yunlong's lips grew deeper. "I lost. I'll take the consequences."
Since they couldn't get any information from the interrogation, this plan had to be abandoned.
Zheng Xiaoyun came to visit Liang Yunlong in the police station.
"Hahaha, you finally got what you deserved," Zheng Xiaoyun said with a hideous face.
Liang Yunlong just glanced at her calmly and smiled. "Do you think you won't end up like this?"
Zheng Xiaoyun laughed even more wildly.
"I'll drag you to hell even if I have to die."
"My honor," Liang Yunlong replied.
Zheng Xiaoyun was speechless. Just as she was about to leave, Liang Yunlong called her back.
"Why didn't you tell me this had something to do with Huo Corporation at first?"
If he had known in advance, he wouldn't have been discovered so quickly.
"What Huo Corporation?" Zheng Xiaoyun turned around.
The look of confusion in her eyes told Liang Yunlong that she wasn't lying.
Then why didn't she know about this?
"Why is there someone from Huo Corporation around the woman you targeted? And it's even the boss of the company himself. What's their relationship?"
Zheng Xiaoyun tilted her head, her face wrinkled in confusion.
"What are you talking about?" She knew Yu Hui very well. When did she get to know someone from Huo Corporation?
Liang Yunlong squinted his eyes. "Weren't you on the set when I arrested someone? Didn't you see them?"
Zheng Xiaoyun shook her head, then shook it again.
Suddenly, she looked up, her eyes full of shock. "So it was that time when you took action?"
Liang Yunlong also sensed something was wrong.
"Oh no, you've got the wrong person. That wasn't Yu Hui," Zheng Xiaoyun finally managed to explain.
Originally, she just thought something had happened on the set and didn't pay much attention. It was only that day when she noticed something strange between Gu Sisi and Ouyang Xin that she started to take notice.
Now she realized it wasn't what she thought.
Then why did the plan targeting Yu Hui turn into one targeting Gu Sisi halfway?
