Chapter 553: Chapter 380: Dealing with It, Boiling the Frog in Warm Water
Lin Fuqiang seemed to ignore him, as usual, he locked the door and walked out.
Dong Tianbao watched the figure walk farther and farther away. His heart plunged into an abyss, he wanted to speak but hesitated, and finally, a bitter expression appeared on his face.
Until...
A faint voice reached his ears.
"The Sanma Village case... the police have yet to find the second Squirrel brand shotgun."
"The second trial is set to open on October 7th, and not having a murder weapon will be troublesome. The police suspect that the perpetrator might have hidden it somewhere familiar. This... Patriarch Dong, you should seriously consider it."
Dong Tianbao sharply lifted his head.
But there was no person in the corridor, yet he knew it was no illusion.
Just....
"To surrender..."
Dong Tianbao felt bitter inside, he roughly understood how those up top intended to handle the Dong Clan.
To surrender, to be the government’s dog!
And the way to show loyalty was to make him... betray his own family.
It was cruel, but....
"Alright!"
Dong Tianbao took a deep breath, steeled his heart, a glint of ruthlessness flashes across his eyes.
Whether as a dog or being the frog in boiling water, gradually losing the family’s assets doesn’t matter.
At least it wouldn’t immediately result in the price of the family being confiscated!
As for the gun...
It’s very likely still within the Dong Manor.
The police have searched everywhere they could, yet only the manor remains unchecked.
Lin Fuqiang could clearly find it, but still needs him to hand over the weapon personally... so be it.
"Brought on oneself..."
Dong Tianbao stood in place, murmuring in his heart.
"Cannot live."
...
...
October 4th.
Just three days, or less, until the second trial in Sanma Village begins!
Dong Feiyu was handed over to the Prosecutor’s Office.
His mental state was already quite poor, as if he had been subjected to inhuman torment.
At this moment, while detained at the Prosecutor’s Office, barring any surprises, he would soon be sent to court.
He sat on a chair, dazing at the wall, memories of his life flooding through his mind.
Since his birth, it seemed like he was second to none, standing at the apex of human society.
Killing, rape was nothing more than trivial matters for him, doing whatever he pleased.
The Dong family’s assets, converted into money, could buy countless people to work for him!
Human life is cheap.
Really cheap!
A hundred grand per life?
No, in the hands of human traffickers, a few thousand dollars for a life, cheaper than a dog, you take the person and do whatever you want as long as you’re not found out, even killing doesn’t matter!
Dignity isn’t worth much either.
Once, Dong Feiyu tried making two migrant workers fight crickets at a construction site, rewarding the winner with ten thousand.
For those ten thousand, the two were tossing and turning like loaches in a mud pit, making Dong Feiyu laugh heartily.
So...
"Just a person... just a person with no power or background...."
In the detention room.
Dong Feiyu muttered like he was spellbound.
He thought of Lin Fuqiang, and then the figures of others flashed by until it finally settled on Xu Liang, his face gradually becoming savage.
He didn’t understand.
Why on earth the other side insisted on working for someone with no power, no background, nothing!
Why must they protect that person!?
That sort of Grass-like being is just dead, why must they risk being targeted by the Dong family, fighting so hard for such a being!?
Dong Feiyu’s face gradually became savage.
Until...
"Creak~"
The sound of an iron gate being opened rang out, followed by a man’s voice.
"Dong Feiyu, someone’s here to see you."
With those words.
Dong Feiyu was stunned, instinctively turning his head towards the outside of the iron bars.
Then he saw a duty officer walking to the front of the detention room, looking at him with a blank expression, with even a hint of disgust in his eyes.
Someone... to see him?
Who?
Until an elderly figure slowly walked in, appearing before Dong Feiyu.
This was...
Dong Tianbao!?
Indeed, the visitor was Dong Tianbao.
At this moment, Dong Tianbao arrived at the Prosecutor’s Office. After submitting some documents, he requested to come to the front of the detention room, silently watching the Dong Feiyu inside.
Dong Feiyu’s pupils suddenly contracted; his heart, which had sunk to the bottom, was pounding.
"Clang!"
He suddenly threw himself against the iron bars, looking at this familiar face, excitement appearing on his face.
"Dad, Dad, are you here to save me!?"
Once these words sounded.
Dong Tianbao in front of him moved his lips without speaking, hesitated, and then stopped again.
