Chapter 524: Chapter 373: Driven into a Corner
Eight days.
In eight days, the case will proceed to the second trial as planned.
Once the second trial begins, whether or not Lin Fuqiang has investigated the club thoroughly, Xu Liang will not delay the case any longer.
That also means Dong Feiyu won’t have any so-called chances!
Whether Dong Feiyu can change the outcome... that depends on Dong Tianbao.
As for what Dong Tianbao is doing at this moment....
...
...
Meanwhile.
That night, inside Dong Manor.
"What on earth is happening!?"
"What did Feiyu do to provoke Lin Fuqiang to personally step in, and even use his authority against him!?"
"And the Prosecutor’s Office... Is it related to a murder case? No, it can’t be that simple. Just one death wouldn’t attract such people...."
"..."
It has been seven hours since Huang Ren took Dong Feiyu away.
Dong Tianbao’s mind has been in chaos for seven hours, as if countless flies were buzzing around, making it impossible to calm down and think.
Seeing this, the people around looked at each other in dismay.
There were quite a few people around the hall, both men and women, old and young, but without exception, all were from the Dong Clan.
Seeing Dong Tianbao in such a state, someone couldn’t help but speak up:
"Grandpa, did Feiyu offend someone?"
"Maybe the shooting case is just a pretext, and he offended someone and then used the case as a reason to capture him?"
Upon hearing this, Dong Tianbao suddenly paused, furrowing his brow.
Offend someone?
No, Dong Feiyu wouldn’t offend anyone.
It’s only others who would offend him!
The Dong Clan’s power is immense, strong enough to defy logic, leaving no room to offend anyone, unless it’s those top-tier families!
But...
"You think I haven’t considered this!?"
Dong Feiyu let out a muffled grunt, his hoarse voice coming out from his throat and reaching everyone’s ears.
"Do you know who brought people this afternoon?"
"It was the Director of Qingshi City Public Security Bureau!"
Director?
Everyone paused, then displayed expressions of astonishment.
Generally speaking, orders come from above, executed by those below.
In other words, if the Director is the executor, then the one ordering is....
"The provincial level? Governmental officials? How did Feiyu offend governmental persons!?" a middle-aged woman couldn’t help but speak up in shock.
The Dong Clan has survived by bullying the weak and fearing the strong.
Who is strong? The officials are strong!
A mere city director would not bother the Dong Clan, but if the provincial level is involved... then that’s big trouble.
"Who at the provincial level!?" someone else eagerly pursued.
"I don’t know."
Dong Tianbao’s brows displayed a mix of emotions as he didn’t reveal Lin Fuqiang’s name.
Honestly, it’s mainly because he doesn’t believe Dong Feiyu could offend someone of that level.
Perhaps someone he offended went to Lin Fuqiang, asking him to take the case and vent their anger?
Why think this way?
Ultimately, it’s because he found out Lin Fuqiang personally ordered the arrest!
For someone of that level, every word and deed must be considered carefully, and personally commanding an arrest... is a major taboo.
But on the other hand.
Even if someone asked Lin Fuqiang to vent their anger... Lin Fuqiang’s actions are still a major taboo.
Moreover, what caliber of person could command Lin Fuqiang!?
"What on earth... is going on...."
He believes Dong Feiyu wouldn’t recklessly offend anyone, despite his arrogance, he only targets the common folk. But once he encounters someone of equal standing, he becomes polite and courteous.
The level capable of commanding Lin Fuqiang... Dong Feiyu couldn’t possibly offend!
Furthermore, even if it’s revenge, such a level should retaliate against the entire Dong Clan.
"Sigh..."
Dong Tianbao heaved a deep sigh, furrowing his brow, and reached out to rub his temples.
Ever since expanding the family to this scale, he hadn’t felt so dissatisfied.
Until....
"Li Hai, do you have any news?"
Dong Tianbao suddenly turned, looking at a man amidst the crowd in the hall.
The man was a son-in-law of the Dong Clan, whose connections were extensive.
Suddenly being named, everyone in the hall fixed their gaze on him.
Li Hai was approximately forty years old, dressed sharply, and was drinking tea when he heard the commotion, paused his actions, then spoke:
"I’ll give it a try."
After saying this.
Li Hai took out his phone.
He furrowed his brow, contemplating for a long time.
The currently known information is that Dong Feiyu was taken away by people, who were essentially from the Prosecutor’s Office and the police. The Prosecutor’s Office most likely acted legally, so the remaining factor is....
Li Hai stayed silent for a while, finally choosing to dial a number.
"Beep beep beep~"
The phone rang.
He didn’t opt to move to a corner to discreetly make the call, so the ringtone echoed in the spacious hall, reaching everyone’s ears.
Each ’beep’ seemed to ring out in their hearts, stirring them.
Until...
"Buzz~!"
The call suddenly connected, and everyone’s expressions tightened.
Li Hai’s face showed a smile, as he pressed the speaker button and warmly spoke:
"Hello~ Director Liu, it’s me, Li Hai..."
In the city bureau, there’s not only Director Zhang but also Deputy Director.
Li Hai had a decent relationship with him, since company development relies on them, he occasionally contacts for social reasons.
Previously, Director Liu chat with him, and had a nice tone, but now....
"Li Hai... keep it brief, what do you want?"
A suddenly stern voice comes through the speaker, causing Li Hai to pause, then frown.
He looked up at Dong Tianbao.
This voice....
Has the other party changed attitude!?
Dong Tianbao, being an old fox, naturally grasped the implications, yet didn’t intervene, instead signaling for him to continue.
Li Hai nodded, promptly continuing:
