Xi Zining went even further, directly playing the recording, "Officer, we're so scared! Could he be a thug? Could he hire someone to beat us to death?"

[Hahaha, I bet Lin Yaohua and Beast Zhang are sweating buckets by now. We're so clever, we even knew to record it.]

Upon hearing Song Shiwei's inner thoughts, the others burst out laughing. How could this be a self-praise?

{I declare this year's guest a top scorer! Xi Zining truly lives up to her reputation as a master collector in the Chinese entertainment industry; her dedication is truly outstanding.}

{That's hilarious! Why did you have to provoke them? These are four women who could take down the Chinese entertainment industry!}

{ Sister Song Gua, you truly are something else! Your ability to break up fights is absolutely amazing.}

{This Secretary Lin is practically confirmed, right? He's a corrupt official who's now committed murder; he's a complete scum of society.}

Viewers left indignant comments in the live stream, causing the stream to become incredibly popular.

Lin Yaohua was furious. He turned around and glared at Song Shiwei and the others with a vicious look, "What nonsense are you spouting?!"

Captain Zhang didn't want to listen to his explanations, so he directly pulled out an arrest warrant. "Lin Yaohua, you are suspected of embezzling public funds, defrauding the people, accepting bribes, and other crimes. We will arrest you according to law."

After saying that, Captain Zhang directed two criminal police officers to pin Lin Yaohua down. Lin Yaohua was still struggling and shouting, "Why are you arresting me? Where is your evidence? I can sue you for arbitrary enforcement of the law!"

[You're already on the verge of death, so you're still struggling, huh? Scumbag Lin, you'll get what you asked for later.]

"There's definitely evidence, and as for evidence of the murder, I think we'll have it soon." Captain Zhang ignored him and then had the police take him away.

Lin Yaohua struggled and moved around, crying out in pain that his hand was broken and he needed to go to the hospital, but no matter how much he made a fuss, the police ignored him.

Captain Zhang even took the excavator and was about to head up the mountain when Beast Zhang panicked completely. I, with my bulky body, rushed out and shouted, "You can't go up there! It's haunted!"

[Okay, another one gone mad. How come the people in this world have such low tolerance for stress? They go crazy over the slightest provocation? Their mental fortitude is terrible...]

Captain Zhang laughed. "It's good that they're crazy. To destroy them, you must first make them go mad."

They were so focused on catching Lin Yaohua that they completely forgot about Boss Zhang. Now that he's suddenly appeared, they have no choice but to take him in.

Captain Zhang Leader Zhang grabbed him and swiftly handcuffed him with silver handcuffs. "Zhang Qinshou, we forgot about you. Arrest him."

Beast Zhang, like a dead pig struggling violently, was dragged aside by several police officers.

"Let's go up the mountain."

With a command from Captain Zhang, the excavators marched in a mighty procession toward the back mountain of Qingyuan Town, their enormous roar like a lingering haze overhead.

Everyone was excitedly waiting for the results of the excavation, but after digging for half an hour, they found nothing except the hand bone they had just unearthed.

Could it be that we've found the wrong person? Captain Zhang wondered with some doubt.

Song Shiwei watched the excavator with excitement, silently counting the shovel strokes in her mind: [Almost there, almost there, just one more shovel and we'll be there. These two bodies were buried really deep.]

Song Shiwei finished speaking than the police officer beside her excitedly exclaimed, "Captain Zhang! We've found something!"

He hurriedly crossed the cordon to check, and when he saw the scene before him, he took a deep breath, and the huge weight that had been hanging over his heart finally lifted.

The logic chain matches up, the corpses match up, and now Lin Yaohua and Beast Zhang have nowhere to escape.

Captain Zhang glanced at Lin Yaohua and Beast Zhang, who were being escorted up, and said through gritted teeth, "Take them back to the police station and interrogate them tonight. We must give the netizens and the villagers an explanation as quickly as possible."

"What makes you think you know me and that I killed someone? I didn't kill anyone, I'd rather die than admit it!" Lin Yaohua struggled fiercely. "You couldn't possibly find evidence of my crime in such a short time. You're just trying to kill me."

"What if I said I've been searching for five years?" Liu Shuqiang appeared out of nowhere, looking at Lin Yaohua with a calm expression.

"Yu Shuqiang, how could it be you?" Lin Yaohua thought for a long time before finally remembering who the person in front of him was. He immediately flew into a rage and said, "You dare to meddle in other people's business? Believe it or not..."

Before Lin Yaohua could finish speaking, Captain Zhang slapped him across the face. "You're threatening me now? Behave yourself."

Yu Shuqiang let out a long sigh of relief and said, "You wouldn't believe it, would you? I never imagined it myself. For five years, I've lived day and night in guilt, and now I can finally stand up for them and get justice."

That year, he was too radical and did not expect to play right into Lin Yaohua's hands. A boss who had traveled a long way to Qingyuan Town to buy melons was beaten to death. He himself was also beaten and left half-paralyzed. He even caused the death of a young woman.

For the past five years, he has been keeping a close eye on Lin Yaohua, gathering evidence bit by bit, all for this day.

He was finally able to bring Lin Yaohua to justice on behalf of those who had died tragically.

Lin Yaohua's veins bulged, and he looked like he wanted to rush up and bite him. "Why didn't I kill you five years ago!"

"It's because you didn't kill me that I climbed up from hell and am standing in the sunlight, while you deserve to spend the rest of your life in hell."

Yu Shuqiang said calmly, then smiled and said, "Do you know who gave me some key pieces of evidence?"

You'd never guess.

Yu Shuqiang didn't say anything more, but just stared at him silently, like the gaping maw of an abyss staring at its prey.

"Did Beast Zhang tell you?!" Lin Yaohua turned around angrily and roared at Beast Zhang, "It must have been you, right? You're the one who wanted to pocket all this money."
