Questioning Zhang Yu, Orthodox God Clears the Field
As Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen watched Yue Jincheng leave, feeling puzzled, the office door opened, and Gong Zhe and another Patrol Team member walked in.
At this moment, Gong Zhe's face was devoid of any smile. He coldly said, "I'm here to take your statements regarding today's Mutual Assault Case."
"A fight?" Zhang Yu said, "How is it a fight? I told you he tried to steal my phone."
Gong Zhe said calmly, "Isn't your phone in your own hands? I saw you use it to make the payment."
Zhang Yu said, "I stopped him from stealing it."
Gong Zhe coldly asked, "Then how can you prove he was trying to steal your phone?"
"According to the testimony of another passerby at the scene, you attacked him first, and he was forced to fight back."
Zhang Yu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. "I attacked him?"
"Then check the security footage. He reached into my pocket from behind first."
Gong Zhe flipped through the documents in his hand and said casually, "The surveillance cameras at the scene were broken; they didn't capture this moment."
Seeing that Zhang Yu remained silent, Gong Zhe continued, "So you have no evidence to prove that the other party wanted to steal your things?"
Are you short of money lately?
Have the students' Monthly Exam scores declined?
Have you felt that you've been mentally unstable lately?
Listening to Gong Zhe's increasingly leading questions, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean? Are you trying to imply that Zhang Yu should make the first move?"
Gong Zhe frowned and said, "These are just normal routine inquiries."
"As for whether you or he struck first, it's not up to you or him to decide; everything will be based on evidence and the investigation results."
Bai Zhenzhen retorted angrily, "Then why was he released, but we have to stay here?"
Gong Zhe replied matter-of-factly, "They can afford the bail, applied for a postponement of the review, everything is reasonable and legal, of course they can leave first. After the questioning is over, you can leave after paying your bail as well."
Bai Zhenzhen became even angrier upon hearing this. "We are the ones who filed the report, and now we have to pay bail to get out?"
Gong Zhe said calmly, "Reporting a crime doesn't mean you haven't broken the law."
Looking at Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen in front of him, Gong Zhe knew in his heart that the matter was not as simple as a bail payment.
Because shortly after they interrogated Yue Jincheng, the Wanxing Group mobilized its forces.
As a company with money and influence, supporting an entire legal services team, its power far exceeds what ordinary people imagine.
When this force was used against the two poor students in front of him, Gong Zhe didn't know why the company was doing this, but he could already see the outcome.
In particular, when he sensed that his superior was also subtly expressing a preference for Wanxing Group, Gong Zhe completely changed, and he no longer remembered how he had just been speaking warmly to Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen.
After taking their statements, Gong Zhe left, leaving Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen in the office.
Bai Zhenzhen touched her stomach, growing increasingly angry, and banged on the door, saying, "I need to use the restroom!"
However, no one paid any attention.
Just then, Zhang Yu's phone vibrated; it was a message from Zhou Chechen.
Zhou Chechen: The school is very dissatisfied with your involvement in fighting off-campus and has decided to give you and Bai Zhenzhen a disciplinary action.
Zhou Chechen: Remember to apologize to the other party properly, and don't embarrass Songyang High School.
Zhang Yu narrowed his eyes as he looked at Zhou Chechen's message, thinking to himself, "What does this mean?"
"Provocative?"
A moment later, Yun Ni sent another message: What happened? They said you were fighting and are going to be expelled from your positions Divine Assistant.
As Bai Zhenzhen looked at the messages on Zhang Yu's phone, she felt waves of pressure washing over her, like an invisible giant hand slowly squeezing them.
Watching this unfold, Fu Ji burst into laughter. "It seems the Zhou Family has made their move. This is a good thing!"
"They turned this into a brawl and are putting pressure on Fourth Office. They're clearly trying to take this opportunity to get back at you, either by extorting money from you or by getting you detained so you can't go to school."
"Hehe, but no matter what, they don't know that you've become friends with Deng Bingding, and they certainly don't know that Deng Bingding has already started investigating the Zhou Family."
"The more deeply the Zhou Family is involved in this matter now, the greater the price they will have to pay to extricate themselves from it."
While Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen were patiently waiting in the Patrol Bureau's office...
Yue Jincheng has returned to the Security Department of Wanxing Group.
Upon entering the minister's office, Yue Jincheng saw that in addition to the minister, Si Zhouyu and another lawyer were also present.
The Security Department Head looked at him and said coldly, "Who gave you permission to take action without authorization?"
Yue Jincheng: "I..."
Snap!
The Security Department Head slapped Yue Jincheng across the face and said coldly, "If the company didn't still need you, you would have been fired long ago."
A burning pain shot through Yue Jincheng's face from the handprint, but he dared not touch it. He could only bow and say, "I'm sorry, Minister, it's all my fault." The Security Department Head said, "Give me the phone."
Upon hearing this, Yue Jincheng's face twitched, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes, but he ultimately handed over his phone.
The Security Department Head skillfully opened the company's Employee Financial Platform and said, "The company advanced this bail for you. Now use your own Emergency Fund to get reimbursed by the company."
"Hurry up."
Yue Jincheng gritted his teeth, and under the watchful eye of the Security Department Head, he had no choice but to obediently follow orders.
The Security Department Head continued, "Next, you should insist that Zhang Yu attacked you first, and then you two fought each other."
"The company's lawyer will guide you on the specifics of how to do it."
"Remember this: if you act recklessly again, you can forget about finding a job in Songyang City."
The lawyer standing nearby said, "The specific procedure is very simple. Just say this at the Patrol Bureau..."
Listening to the other party's words, Yue Jincheng frowned and said, "Are we just going to keep mediating with him? Keep pestering him? Keep harassing him?"
He said, bewildered, "Isn't this a perfect opportunity to get back at him? With the company's power, they could easily prevent him from going to school."
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
"We can easily threaten him to get the information the leader wants..."
Before Yue Jincheng could finish speaking, the Security Department Head kicked him in the stomach again, causing him to groan and bend over like a boiled shrimp.
The Security Department Head said coldly, "Didn't I just tell you? Don't act on your own. Do what your superiors tell you to do. If you understand, you must execute it; if you don't understand, you must execute it even more."
"The company doesn't need executives like you to have your own ideas."
Do you understand?
Yue Jincheng struggled to his feet, nodded, and said, "I understand."
But Yue Jincheng was still full of confusion. He didn't understand why, when dealing with poor high school students like Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, the company could have easily crushed them, but instead always let them go.
"Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen are just two ants."
"It's easy to crush them, of course."
"But to stomp on them and crush them without killing them, forcing them to seek help from the anthill... that requires a lot of skill and finesse."
In a hospital room on the Layer 333 of the Central Building, Zhou Yang looked out at the city view and sighed inwardly, "These new employees are getting more and more restless."
But Zhou Yang wasn't flustered. After all, he had been through many ups and downs over the years and had encountered far too many mistakes and errors made by his subordinates.
He won't dwell on the mistake and blame others; instead, he'll try to adjust afterward and look for new opportunities within the given circumstances.
Upon learning that Yue Jincheng had attacked Zhang Yu and was apprehended on the spot by the Patrol Team, Zhou Yang immediately took action, using his influence to take control of the situation.
"We can't pretend nothing happened; that would definitely alert the Evil God behind it."
"But we can't kill Zhang Yu all at once and cut off the trail to the Evil God."
Zhou Yang thought to himself, "I still need to use Zhou Chechen as a front to get things done."
"Make the whole thing out of Zhou Chechen's revenge against Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen, that he hired someone to set a trap for them..."
"At least from Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen's perspective, the whole incident needs to be contained to the extent that Zhou Chechen was bullying them."
As he pondered this, he made a phone call, and leveraging the Zhou Family's resources and the influence of the Wanxing Group, he quickly achieved his goal.
After finishing all this, Zhou Yang let out a soft breath, thinking to himself, "Next, I need to send more people to continue monitoring Zhang Yu and Bai Zhenzhen through multiple channels."
"Whether they seek help from the Evil God or realize something is wrong and try to escape, they should gain something from this."
"But before that..."
Zhou Yang thought to himself, "Since we've already done it, why not just detain them for a few days and then send someone inside to teach them a lesson? Maybe that will make them reveal more flaws?"
"Even if they are students taking the Foundation Establishment Exam, everything is reasonable, so they can't blame me for that, can they?"
Just as Zhou Yang was considering the appropriate amount of heat, his phone suddenly vibrated.
Then came a series of frantic vibrations, and messages flooded the phone screen.
"The God Department has arrived! They are searching the company building!"
"Chairman Zhou! The Security Department has been sealed off by the Orthodox God, and everyone has lost contact!"
"Zhou Yang, what exactly happened? Why would Sixth-Rank True God come to investigate you?"
"Uncle, a Orthodox God has descended upon this mansion..."
"Chairman Zhou, our funds have been frozen?"
Looking at the messages one after another, Zhou Yang was initially a little confused. "Sixth-rank... Orthodox God? They're here to investigate me?"
But as more and more messages appeared, he felt as if a net of heaven and earth was closing in on him, tightening and tightening until he could hardly breathe.
