Chapter 522: In the adult world, there is no right or wrong

"Why are you clinging to it so tightly?"

Zhang Yanlong's voice carried anger:

"You know my name, so you should know who I represent—aren't you afraid of me…"

He had barely begun when Yu Dazhang interrupted him:

"Do you not understand human speech? I already told you: skip the threats, and I'll give you another chance—say it again."

He realized this Zhang Yanlong didn't seem to have a brain.

Who starts by blabbing about their family background? It's 2015 already—even when leveraging daddy's influence, everyone does it secretly; no one openly flaunts it.

Yu Dazhang suddenly understood why this guy had turned to illegal online lending.

Simple, direct, efficient.

Since ancient times, loan-sharking has been one of the fastest and most profitable industries.

It's easier to run illegal online lending yourself than to go through the trouble of being someone else's shield.

Plus, this business doesn't require using power to interfere with the market—you don't need land approvals or project deals; it's basically starting your own business.

You just need to use your connections to smooth things over when trouble arises.

That's precisely why Zhang Yanlong dared to act so recklessly—he had connections.

Still not quite right… Yu Dazhang felt this Zhang Yanlong was still too careless.

With such a powerful background, all he had to do was flick his finger, and people would line up to hand over money.

If it were only about money, there was no need to be this utterly heartless.

There must be some reason forcing Zhang Yanlong to resort to illegal online lending to make money.

"As long as you agree to transfer the case and the suspect to the Criminal Investigation Division, you can name your terms."

Zhang Yanlong's tone softened noticeably this time:

"Money, property, cars, stocks—anything you name, I can deliver."

He assumed these things would serve as bargaining chips.

After all, who doesn't love money?

But the next second, the reply on the other end left him stunned.

"Are you an idiot?"

Yu Dazhang said coldly:

"I've never met someone who tries to bribe a cop over the phone—don't you know police calls are automatically recorded?"

Maybe because all the criminals he'd dealt with before were cunning, encountering someone so unpredictable caught him off guard.

This guy didn't use his brain at all.

Even if he'd been subtle, Yu Dazhang would've tolerated it.

Like the previous secretary—he spoke harshly, but it was all veiled.

Even if the recording were leaked, you couldn't find any major fault.

But this guy? He just came right out and confessed.

Logically, growing up in that family, he should've picked it up just by watching.

No need to think—he must've had a master of subtlety for a father; how did he end up so stupid?

Indeed, anyone tagged as a "second-generation" tends to have a bit of a mental downgrade.

"Then, then what do you mean?"

Zhang Yanlong was caught off guard, even stammering as he spoke.

"Let's meet in person," Yu Dazhang suggested:

"Some things are easier to discuss face-to-face. Pick a place—I'll come to you."

He now had sufficient grounds to suspect Zhang Yanlong of major involvement, so he planned to lure him in for arrest.

First, get him under control; once inside the interrogation room, his secrets wouldn't stay hidden.

"I won't meet you."

Zhang Yanlong outright refused:

"Unless we first agree on terms and you transfer the case to the Criminal Investigation Division, I won't meet with you."

Not entirely stupid… Yu Dazhang hadn't expected him to be this cautious.

Since the lure had failed, he dropped the act entirely.

"My only condition: turn yourself in."
