Chapter 259: You're surprised to see me? It shouldn't be!

That makes sense.

Li Jiaci exhaled a puff of smoke, gazing out the window as he spoke.

The plan has progressed this far with difficulty; only one final step remains, and then we can bring Liu Yunshen to justice.

Wu Jiangshan turned around and patted Li Jiaci on the shoulder.

He spoke in a low voice: "As long as you know what you're doing, if this fails, your days will only get harder!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jiaci slightly furrowed his brow.

"Are you threatening me?"

Wu Jiangshan withdrew his hand, shook his head: "This is not a threat, it's an exchange of interests!"

Afterward he took off his sunglasses and gave Li Jiaci a solemn look.

"After it succeeds, I can promise you one condition."

Li Jiaci has always been good at reading people.

He can tell at a glance whether the other party harbors ulterior motives.

Wu Jiangshan's gaze held no ulterior motive.

Actually, things have developed to this point.

Li Jiaci is not entirely forced either.

In this life, before doing anything, he always goes through meticulous planning and thought.

Including this matter.

Li Jiaci stubbed out the cigarette butt, saying: "My condition might be a bit difficult to handle."

"Heh."

"Since I dare to promise, I will definitely be able to do it!"

Wu Jiangshan curled a confident smile.

The two locked eyes.

Li Jiaci leaned against the window, solemnly said: "I want you to help me and my brothers clear our past."

"As long as the past is erased,"

"they will have no worries for the rest of their lives."

"nor fear being condemned by others."

"Otherwise, they could never be at peace."

After a long silence, Wu Jiangshan finally let out a light laugh.

"Fine, I promise you."

……

The next morning.

Anti-Corruption Bureau interrogation room.

Xu Bin has already endured thirty hours.

If he endures another twelve hours, he can smoothly escape this damned place.

But just as he relaxed,

a wave of intense abdominal pain swept over him.

Xu Bin silently cursed a profanity.

Struggling to stand, he staggered toward the door.

Bang bang bang!

"Damn it, hurry up and open the door for me!"

"Which law says detainees can't use the toilet?"

"Let the Bureau Chief come out!"

"I want to talk to him alone!"

Xu Bin could no longer bear it.

His face turned ashen, cold sweat pouring down.

His whole body went limp, leaning against the door.

His legs twisted like a knot.

Abdominal pain combined with urgent urination.

The dual torment made each second feel like a year, almost worse than death.

"Open... open the door!"

"Please, I just want to use the toilet!"

Xu Bin's voice grew weaker.

Just as he was about to break under the torture,

Swish.

The interrogation room door suddenly opened.

Xu Bin saw hope.

His despairing eyes suddenly became bright and alert.

"Let me out quickly!"

Xu Bin rushed out all at once.

But he was ruthlessly shoved back by the other party.

Bang.

The Hope Gate closed again.

Xu Bin fell to the ground, the abdominal pain making him unable to even stand.

They looked at the person before them.

He couldn't care less about the pain, immediately losing his composure and shouting: "Damn it, how is it you, you bastard?"

The person who came was Li Jiaci.

"Hehe."

"Are you surprised to see me?"

"That shouldn't be!"

Li Jiaci walked over slowly, squatted down, patted his shoulder, and said with a smile: "I thought you were deliberately delaying until now just to see me!"

Xu Bin was furious.

He clenched his right hand into a fist and swung it at Li Jiaci's face.

But Li Jiaci caught his wrist and twisted it hard.

Crack.

The sound of breaking bones was especially crisp in the interrogation room.

"Ah..."

Xu Bin had just made a sound.

Soon his face suffered several consecutive heavy blows.

Li Jiaci lowered his fist.

He rotated his wrist.

"Sorry, I heard you're pretty tough, so I wanted to give it a try!"

Xu Bin was completely dazed from the beating.

His face stung with pain.

He glared at Li Jiaci angrily, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, and shouted hysterically: "I'm an official from the provincial capital—how dare you hit me? Damn it, you don't want to live, do you?"

"What's it matter that you're from the provincial capital?"

"A gentleman who breaks the law still shares the same guilt as commoners, let alone you, who are merely an obedient lapdog!"

"A gilded chamber pot looks fine outside but stinks inside!"

"Dealing with scum like you, I'll hit if I want to, curse if I want to!"

"If you don't like it, just hold it in!"

Li Jiaci grabbed his collar and lifted him up.

But Xu Bin actually still had something to say.

"I'm a gilded chamber pot—what are you?"

"Heh, you're not even fit to be a chamber pot—you're basically a huge cesspool, got it?"

"Now everyone calls you Boss Li, has it gone to your head?"

"There's nothing you haven't done—murder, arson, you name it."

"One day your true colors will be exposed to all!"

"By then, let's see who will still put up with you!"

Xu Bin was Liu Yunshen's secretary.

He knew everything that should and shouldn't be known.

Li Jiaci gave a cold, sinister smile.

All the past events will eventually become his stumbling block.

See, this just proves it.

Whatever he wants to forget, someone will always remind him.

This is the purpose of his cooperation with the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Killing Liu Yunshen is merely part of the plan.

Clearing his past is what truly matters.

Xu Bin was still laughing arrogantly.

Suddenly, he felt the hand gripping his collar tighten further.

Before he could react,

Li Jiaci's fists came raining down.

That truly was a case of fist to flesh.

It split Xu Bin's skin and tore his flesh.

Soon his face was covered in red welts, his eyes swollen as big as light bulbs.

Blood flowed from his chin down to his collar.

Instantly staining a large area red.

Even so,

Xu Bin still did not yield.

He was nearly mad, gritting his loose bloody teeth as he threatened: "Li Jiaci, I won't let you off—we'll see who meets their doom first!"

"Heh..."

Li Jiaci raised his eyebrows lightly.

He said in a threatening tone: "Xu Bin, you can say nothing for now, but you have a wife, right? You have children, right? When I find them, it won't be too late for you to speak!"

"You... what are you going to do?"

A flicker of panic appeared in Xu Bin's frantic demeanor.

"Don't worry, I will definitely help you find someone to look after them!"

"Since your wife has lost her man, I'll go to Africa to help her find one—no, many!"

"But I've heard that African men like to beat their wives and enjoy using force!"

"I don't know if your wife can endure as much as you can!"

"And your child—I'll send her to Southeast Asia to be sold!"

"Enjoy wealth and honor with the money earned from selling her body!"

Li Jiaci's words had just been spoken.

Xu Bin then began to struggle violently, fire shooting from his eyes.

"Li Jiaci, you this birth!"

"The Anti-Corruption Bureau will never allow you to do this!"

"You are doing this as deliberate revenge!"

"I will call the police; you are endangering my family's safety!"

"The one who should be arrested is you!"

Upon hearing that,

Li Jiaci smiled despicably.

"Hahaha!"

"I am not a member of the Anti-Corruption Bureau!"

"I'll do whatever I want; can they control me?"
