Chapter 703

Yue Yue Guoqiang looked at the phone in his hand, suddenly burst into loud laughter, and slammed the phone down with a 'pop'.

Arriving at the office in the morning, he had seen the news of Dicos suing McDonald's and McDonald's clarification.

At that moment, he realized that the Ye family would very likely compromise, so he had been waiting in the office.

It was almost noon, and just as he was preparing to go out to eat, he received a call from Wu Wu Guihua; just as he had expected, the Ye family had abandoned Ye Jun.

His nerves, which had been taut for the past two days, suddenly relaxed, and he picked up his teacup to take a sip.

To force the Ye family to this extent, to the point of abandoning Ye Jun—Dicos has a master behind it.

Yue Yue Guoqiang put down the teacup and picked up the phone to call Zhao Hong.

"This is Yue Yue Guoqiang. How is the college student murder case going?"

Zhao Hong's somewhat exhausted voice came through the receiver: "The other person hasn't been found yet, but I've analyzed that he is the murderer."

Yue Yue Guoqiang said: "Didn't sleep again last night?"

"Slept for two hours." Zhao Hong yawned.

Yue Yue Guoqiang thought for a moment: "How about this, hand the murder case over to Xiang Xiang Qipeng, and you take charge of Ye Jun's case."

"Oh, right!" Zhao Hong suddenly remembered, "In the morning, Ye Lao's secretary came by and went to see Ye Jun."

Yue Yue Guoqiang smiled: "The Ye family won't interfere in Ye Jun's case, which means they have abandoned Ye Jun."

"So that's how it is." Zhao Hong understood, "Ye Lao's secretary came over, presumably to make Ye Jun confess."

"Then let's do that." Yue Yue Guoqiang gave a few instructions and then hung up the phone.

………………

At the Criminal Police Squad, Zhao Hong got up and went to the office of Deputy Captain Xiang Xiang Qipeng, pushing the door open and walking in without even knocking.

"Damn it!" Xiang Xiang Qipeng, with a cigarette in his mouth, was looking down at the case files; hearing the door open, he looked up, saw it was Zhao Hong, and couldn't help but curse.

"Can't you knock before you come in?"

Zhao Hong gave a 'heh' laugh, picked up the cigarette from the desk to light one, and then leaned over to look at the case files.

"This dismemberment case has been going on for eleven years, and you've been on it for four or five; have you found anything?"

Xiang Xiang Qipeng shook his head: "No, but I always feel that the victim's husband has a problem."

"Stop working on this for now." Zhao Hong took the ashtray and flicked his ash, "You take over the college student murder case."

Xiang Xiang Qipeng was stunned: "You've always been in charge of this case because the victim was a college student, and the leadership attached so much importance to it that they personally served as the head of the special case team. Why is it suddenly being transferred to me?"

Zhao Hong sighed: "The leadership has put me in charge of Ye Jun's case. The Ye family has compromised and won't interfere."

"The Ye family has abandoned Ye Jun?" Xiang Xiang Qipeng simply couldn't believe his ears, "What on earth happened?"

"It's a bit complicated; I'll tell you when I have time." Zhao Hong turned and walked out, "I'm going to bring Ye Jun in now."

Ye Jun was brought to the interrogation room. Now, he no longer had his previous arrogance. The fierce light in those triangular eyes was gone, replaced by a dullness, just like a dog that had had its spine broken and its 'three treasures' cut off.

He wanted to cry but couldn't. He couldn't understand why his family would abandon him. His father and mother didn't care about him, and the old man didn't care about him either; they actually told him to confess.

With a creak, the interrogation room door opened, and strong light shone in, causing the dim, yellowish light inside to lose its luster instantly.

Zhao Hong and two criminal police officers, a man and a woman, walked in, and then the interrogation room door closed again.

Suddenly, it became pitch black inside. After several seconds, Ye Jun finally adapted to the dim light.

Zhao Hong and the two criminal police officers sat down, and the female officer opened the record book.

"Smoke?" Zhao Hong took out a cigarette and gestured toward Ye Jun.

Ye Jun's throat bobbed, and he gave a slight nod.

The male officer lit the cigarette, got up, walked over, and placed it in Ye Jun's mouth.

"Speak. Your case isn't a big deal, and with your family's influence, at most it'll be two or three years. Actually, time passes very quickly; it'll be over in a flash."

Ye Jun puffed on the cigarette, and after a long while, he said: "Can you tell me why?"

Zhao Hong leaned back, arms crossed over his chest: "When Secretary Xiong came, didn't he tell you?"

Ye Jun shook his head: "He just told me to confess; he didn't say anything else."

Zhao Hong couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Ye Jun was usually so arrogant, but once he lost his family's protection, he turned into this spineless wretch.

"Before you made a move on Dicos, didn't you investigate Dicos's background?"

Ye Jun was stunned, his hand holding the cigarette stiffening: "Background? I investigated. Aside from Jian Qiu, the others aren't even worth mentioning."

After arresting Ye Jun, Zhao Hong had people investigate Dicos. He discovered that Dicos's equity had undergone a change.

Previously, Dicos's largest shareholder was Zhou Andong. A few days ago, Zhou Andong sold all his shares to the Xiangjiang Qiu Qiu Dongfang Company.

Most importantly, Zhou Andong is the general manager of Qiu Qiu Dongfang's mainland branch.

At this, he understood. From the very beginning, Ye Jun's neck had been put in a noose by Zhou Andong.

If he had stopped early, this guy could have backed out. But the further he went, the tighter the noose around his neck became.

"Dicos's largest shareholder is foreign capital. They are demanding that you be severely punished; otherwise, they will withdraw their investment and expose everything."

"Impossible!" Ye Jun roared excitedly, "Dicos only has four shareholders. The largest shareholder is Zhou Andong. How could it be foreign capital?"

Zhao Hong shook his head. He had never seen a third-generation descendant as evil and stupid as Ye Jun.

"From the moment you made a move on Dicos, the shares in Zhou Andong's hands were sold to Xiangjiang Qiu Qiu Dongfang."

Ye Jun was dumbfounded. It wasn't until the cigarette held between his fingers burned him that he came back to his senses, hurriedly throwing the cigarette butt on the ground.

"Understand now?" Zhao Hong leaned forward, "You thought you could do whatever you wanted by relying on your family background, but you didn't know that from the very beginning, they had already put the noose around your neck."

Ye Jun lowered his head, a sinister light flashing in his eyes.

"Sigh!" Zhao Hong sighed, "Speak. Don't hide anything. And Tong Tong Huai Zhi, is he your accomplice? Confess everything clearly."

………………

Tong Tong Huai Zhi had been hiding at home, but he made dozens of calls every day just to confirm whether Ye Jun had been released.

But two days had passed, and Ye Jun still hadn't been released, and the Ye family hadn't made any moves, which suddenly made him feel a bit panicked.

Just at noon, this guy really couldn't stand the loneliness, so he found two girls to come over and was having a wild time in bed when the door outside was knocked on.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

"Who is it?" Tong Tong Huai Zhi roared in dissatisfaction.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

"Motherfucker." Tong Tong Huai Zhi jumped out of bed naked, left the bedroom, and stood in front of the door, "Who is it?"

"Checking the electric meter!" A low voice came from outside.

"Wait a second!"

Tong Tong Huai Zhi didn't think too much about it, went back to put on his underwear, came back out to open the door, and then his expression changed abruptly when he saw the several police officers standing outside.
