Chapter 195: Who Exactly Stands Behind Qin Yu?
Law Enforcement Bureau.
Wu Peng and a few others came to the Processing Office, checked the time, frowned tightly: "It's just bail, isn't it done yet?"
The youth in law enforcement uniform heard this, put down the phone, and showed a wry smile: "Young Master Wu, I'm afraid... your younger brother cannot be released on bail yet."
"This is Director Guo's instruction; he said some evidence needs investigation, and bail can only be granted after a few days."
Sweat beads dripped from his forehead.
The Wu Family's influence in Sichuan Province is enormous, reaching high officials of the Ministry above and corporate conglomerates below; their presence is everywhere.
He had already prepared to sign the documents, but Director Guo's words were too firm; after all, he still ate at the Law Enforcement Bureau, so offending them was just offending them.
"Don't you know? There are only six days left until the college entrance exam; my younger brother is about to take the exam, and he's also a seed athlete from Sichuan Province, capable of entering those two top martial universities!" Wu Peng's eyes lifted slightly, a hint of coldness flashing.
Wu Chen's talent is far stronger than his.
He is the main focus of cultivation for this generation of the direct line.
If this matter delays Wu Chen for a year, the clan will also impose severe punishment!
The Processing Office chief showed a wry smile: "Sorry, Young Master Wu... I find it difficult; the person personally designated by Director Guo is useless no matter who comes from Rongcheng, as it's beyond our jurisdiction."
"Guo Chun... good, very good!" Wu Peng's anger rose, he slammed the door and left, his face grim to the extreme.
He arrived at the Detention Facility.
In a sunlit prison cell, Wu Chen sat cross-legged, circulating his qi and blood in training, preparing for the college entrance exam.
After all, he is the Second Young Master of the Wu Family; even if detained in the Law Enforcement Bureau, his treatment is not poor, and the low-level staff of the Detention Facility dare not make things difficult for him.
Upon sensing his older brother Wu Peng's aura, he slowly opened his eyes and rose to his feet.
He looked at the guard nearby and calmly said, "Open the door."
He felt like he was about to explode; wherever he went, he radiated brilliance.
But now, because of Qin Yu, he has been locked up in a prison cell for the first time.
In the college entrance exam, Wu Chen had already prepared to forcefully break through to the Third-rank Martial Artist Realm; his foundation was solid and would not be vain.
Then... he would personally suppress Qin Yu.
Beat him into incapacity!
After all, casualties are normal in martial combat.
The guard staff hesitated slightly, searched the communications, but found no notice of bail.
Wu Chen furrowed his brows: "What's going on? Bail hasn't been confirmed yet?"
He was extremely dissatisfied.
Could it be that they dare to make things difficult for him?
"This... Young Master Chen, I haven't received any news of bail here." The guard staff broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead and spoke cautiously.
Wu Chen saw his elder brother and two other eldest young masters approach, all wearing worried expressions.
He instantly felt that something was wrong.
"Little Chen, your procedures have been blocked; don't worry, I will resolve it, and you'll be released on bail within these two days."
Wu Peng said apologetically, but his expression remained calm.
Wu Chen was slightly stunned.
Are you joking with me?
Without any evidence, my bail actually requires waiting two days?
Has the Wu Family's influence weakened to this extent?
Even an ordinary person, with only suspicion and no evidence, can be released on bail within about twenty-four hours.
"Elder brother, stop joking; I need to make a final push, and the college entrance exam in three days is very important to me!"
He had held back for a long time, just to gain fame in the college entrance exam, aim for first place in Sichuan Province, and enter the Imperial Capital Martial University with an invincible momentum!
Now I actually have to train in the Detention Facility?
Wu Peng's face was a bit unsightly; he glanced at the guard, who tactfully left, then he placed a mechanical ball in his right hand, from which a faint energy barrier surged out, directly enveloping the four of them.
He spoke in a low voice: "I will think of a solution as soon as possible; someone is obstructing me, and I now need to know what exactly happened at No. 3 Middle School."
"Didn't I tell you to leave this matter to Zhang Wen to handle?"
"Why now, even the No. 3 Middle School side is targeting you?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Chen showed a look of astonishment: "Is the force behind Qin Yu really that huge?"
"Even the Law Enforcement Bureau can interfere?"
You should know, the Law Enforcement Bureau's waters run deep; the Sichuan Nine Great Families have all placed people there, and there are also individuals from the Ministry within it.
Therefore, aside from the Eight Great Families, basically no one can intervene here.
Furthermore, adding the strange events that previously occurred at No. 3 Middle School.
This made Wu Chen startled; Qin Yu's influence is all-pervasive.
He immediately spoke urgently: "Qin Yu bought up the other shares of No. 3 Middle School; aside from our Wu Family and a few principals and vice principals, everything was secretly purchased by him!"
"Furthermore, he seems to have promised a major investment for No. 3 High School, far exceeding our Wu Family's one hundred million!"
"This is also why Zhang Wen turned against us."
"I saw the message you sent me earlier, but by then Zhang Wen had already ordered my arrest; I was powerless to resist, so I could only delete it."
"Furthermore, when acting according to your plan, Qin Yu displayed astonishing strength, instantly killing the Yu Qing and Yu Xi brothers; at the very least, he possesses Second-rank Martial Artist strength, which contradicts your information."
"He also has two Grandmaster bodyguards by his side; the forces behind him, you have not investigated at all!"
"Wu Peng, I need to get out as soon as possible to prepare for the college entrance exam; I cannot be delayed."
Wu Chen said solemnly, feeling somewhat stifled.
"Grandmaster bodyguards... how is that possible!" The eldest young masters of the Chiang and Yan families were also shocked; even they could at most be equipped with two Fifth-rank Martial Artists.
A Grand Master is a strategic-level existence.
But the result was Qin Yu's bodyguard?
"Acquiring No. 3 Middle School, sixty percent of the shares would cost at least fifteen billion yuan to start; in a short time... on top of that, at least another twenty percent!"
"Besides, the follow-up additional investment would be at least five or six billion, and there's also bribing Director Guo—could he possibly come up with thirty or forty billion all at once?"
"Even if he is the Grandmaster's heir, it's impossible to mobilize that much money!"
Wu Peng was a bit startled; even if they are young masters of aristocratic families, coming up with such funds would be extremely difficult.
The family would not agree.
An aristocratic clan is a huge system; the direct line plus the branches number over a thousand, plus the retained martial artists and various investments, etc.
As a direct line, it's impossible to divert billions of funds in a single day.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be willing to act on Dian Qin's promise, and of course they also harbored thoughts of fostering good relations.
"Could it be... that Divine Doctor Yan is supporting from behind?"
"The Southern Mountain Lineage has such qualifications."
"No, we must consult Young Master Dian; this matter exceeds our handling scope."
"I will have Young Master Dian get you released on bail as soon as possible."
"The two clan uncles I contacted earlier have already called, but to no avail; we need a higher‑ranking figure to step forward."
Wu Peng spoke up quickly, then dispelled the energy barrier and directly took the other two young masters away from the Law Enforcement Bureau.
Meanwhile, Wu Chen in the prison gazed at his older brother's back, his expression sombre.
Could Qin Yu's energy secure the position of director of the Rong City Law Enforcement Bureau?
He found it hard to believe.
His biggest worry was that Wu Peng was scheming behind his back; over the past two years... the number of people supporting him has been growing, threatening his position and status.
"Older brother, I hope it's not you scheming behind my back."
"Otherwise... I'll personally send you on your way."
A faint chill emanated from within him.
