The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 1267: Chapter 1267: Assisting the Investigation

While the nation was focused and discussing, another follow-up report emerged.

The owner of the three gambling dens has been caught, a middle-aged man with the surname Liao, who is now in prison.

The news provided more detailed introductions about this Liao Mou, even showing several photos from the interrogation. It also mentioned that the contraband hidden in these three gambling dens totaled 200 kilograms, which was enough for a death sentence.

Two days quickly passed, and the police followed leads to track down and arrest three drug lords who fled abroad, along with over twenty other people involved. They were all brought back to Kanyue City for interrogation.

Just as netizens thought the investigation was nearly over, another piece of news exploded onto the scene.

The chairman of Wang Group was invited by the police to cooperate with an investigation, and he left the police station half an hour later.

Perhaps not many people know the name Wang Daoran, but as soon as Wang Group is mentioned, it’s as loud as thunder and well-known, almost everyone has heard of it, and even if they haven’t, they have used the Wang Family’s products.

The chairman of Wang Group, if you search online, encyclopedia entries surely describe him as a successful entrepreneur!

Such a figure was invited to the police station to cooperate with an investigation, and it involved the matter of the three gambling dens.

This incredible situation instantly sparked a keen interest, and everyone was concerned about what this successful entrepreneur was cooperating with the investigation about.

The internet was abuzz with discussions.

Some said that the person with the surname Liao was just a scapegoat, and the real mastermind was Wang Daoran!

This statement was believed by the most people, and it even gave rise to more versions. In this era of free speech, Wang Daoran was pointed at by the public, almost to the point where a lie could become truth.

...

Sitting in the office, Wang Daoran turned off all the lights and was browsing websites in the dark, reading news about himself, looking at those comments.

The more he read, the angrier he became, and the angrier he got, the higher his blood pressure rose.

The secretary knocked on the office door with two short knocks and one long one, then pushed the door open and said softly, ”Chairman, many journalists have come to the company for an interview, a total of eighteen outlets. What do you suggest...”

Wang Daoran waved his hand and said, ”Arrange for them to wait in the conference room. I’ll be there soon.”

”Okay.”

After the secretary closed the door and left, Wang Daoran let out a long breath and inwardly sighed at the anticipated situation, closed the webpage, then got up and walked outside.

The reporters did not expect Wang Daoran to agree to their interview, nor did they foresee such fruitful results.

During the interview just now, they learned from Wang Daoran that the arrested Liao Mou was originally a high-level employee of the company, and he had no idea about his involvement in the gambling den business, expressing his deep sorrow.

One reporter asked: Mr. Wang, why were you, such a successful entrepreneur, asked to go to the police station to assist in the investigation?

Wang Daoran explained: I am just an ordinary citizen, and cooperating with the police in assisting the investigation is my duty and obligation; I will do so without hesitation.

Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the journalists leave the Wang Mansion with full loads, Wang Daoran’s face was grim, clenching his fists tightly.

The caught Liao Mou, whose real name is Liao Stone, was a dirty worker under him, also his trusted confidant. This matter forced him to take the fall at a great cost to Wang Daoran.

He believed Liao Stone would not betray him, would not do so even at the cost of his life!

Yet he was still called to the police station, supposedly for assisting in the investigation, which was actually no different from interrogation.

Wang Daoran clearly remembered the one interrogating him was a young man around thirty years old with a very penetrating gaze. He said his surname was Tan! From Anhui, also from the Security Management Institute!

This single sentence held much information, indicating to him that he was not only targeted by the Security Management Institute but also caught in the sights of the Ancient Martial the Tan Family.

Since the Ancient Martial the Tan Family had acted, there were likely other ancient martial families involved as well; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been brought here so quickly.

The Wang Family... is near its breaking point!

...

While Wang Daoran was in contemplation, Lin Tian was also reflecting.

The difference was that their moods were different, one was tragic, the other joyful.

Lin Tian was not joyful because of the closure of the three gambling dens or Wang Daoran’s fate... He wasn’t really concerned about these matters.

Lin Tian’s reflection and joy were because Bai Shishi’s figure was great! And Ruyan’s figure too!

Upon waking in the morning,

Bai Shishi lazily draped one of her legs over Lin Tian, wrapped her arm around his, leaned against his right shoulder, and called out, ”Lin Tian.”

”Hmm?”

”You’re really remarkable,” Bai Shishi praised without reservation.

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian felt his blood pounding; this gal dared to tease him again!

Lin Tian toyed with Bai Shishi’s hair, pressing close to her cheek, and said, ”Your husband could still fight three hundred rounds, want to try?”

Bai Shishi’s face was as red as peach blossoms, giving Lin Tian a sidelong glance, and said, ”Rogue! That’s not what I meant.”

”Then what is it?”

Bai Shishi said, ”You managed to quietly push Wang Daoran into such a miserable position. Those three gambling dens of his, I’m aware of them; they seemed much tougher than when we opened our gambling den. What kind of Divine Power did you employ?”

In Bai Shishi’s view, Lin Tian fought this battle beautifully, extremely beautifully! He pushed Wang Daoran, the old dog, to such a corner; just watching it brought comfort. Yet, at the same time, she was very curious about how Lin Tian accomplished this, knowing full well that this guy had been gallivanting here for some time, but Bai Shishi identified his footprint in this matter!

Lin Tian smiled and said, ”I didn’t employ any Divine Power; it’s just, a few days ago, Wu Yong told me he lost money at the gambling den. I saw he was in a bad mood, so I took him to the gambling den to win some money, and then conveniently trashed the place. Later, I discovered people selling contraband there, couldn’t stand it, so asked someone to report it, and eventually used some connections to get the gambling den sealed.”

Upon hearing Lin Tian finish in just a few sentences, Bai Shishi did not pursue further inquiry. She leaned even closer to Lin Tian and said, ”Wang Daoran must hate you now, if he didn’t get thrown in this time, with that guy’s disposition, there would be lots of trouble in the future.”

Lin Tian laughed, ”Don’t worry, this time, no back way for him, heaven’s net is vast, and none get away, believe he will be making another trip to the police station in a few days.”

There was another thing Lin Tian didn’t mention, that behind Wang Daoran, there was an Ancient Martial the Wang Family, which truly was a giant python—a viper indeed!
