Chapter 1097: Mao Yu is completely finished!
The novel became the final straw that crushed the inner convictions Li Haizao had been holding onto.
In truth, she was not stupid.
She was a refined egoist.
She was clear about her status in Mao Yu's heart.
She was nothing more than a plaything for Mao Yu.
Yet, she tried to use Mao Yu's sweet talk as a lie and an anesthetic.
Tang Ye tore away this fig leaf.
Mao Yu, he really is a hell of a talent.
Other people incorporate reality into novels.
He, however, copied the story of a novel directly into his own life...
The mansion is about to collapse...
Mao Yu is completely finished.
If she continued to insist on covering for him, she would become his accomplice.
Li Haizao was selfish to the bone; otherwise, she would not have abandoned her long-standing relationship under Mao Yu's offensive.
Li Haizao finally decided to open up, "He arranged an apartment for me. Nominally, this apartment belongs to his younger brother, but in reality, the ownership is his. There is a safe in the apartment, and besides cash, there is an account book inside. He told me I must burn the account book."
Tang Ye's eyes lit up, and he took a deep breath, "Thank you for the lead you provided. This lead is very critical."
Li Haizao said nervously, "Can I go now?"
Tang Ye shook his head, "You cannot leave for the time being. However, I can promise you that as long as you cooperate with the investigators and confess everything you know truthfully, we will grant you leniency."
The look in Li Haizao's eyes dimmed.
Uncle, you were the one who threw me aside and ignored me first...
Walking out of the Interrogation Room, Tang Ye met with Zheng Shaokang, "Li Haizao provided a lead: Mao Yu has an apartment, and there should be clues to his corruption and bribery in the safe."
Zheng Shaokang said in surprise, "She opened up so quickly?"
Tang Ye nodded, "She is just a woman blinded by greed and coerced."
Zheng Shaokang nodded slightly and clenched his fists, "Just received word, our people have caught up to Mao Yu."
Tang Ye said in a deep voice, "Arrest him as soon as possible. I'm afraid he might put up a desperate fight!"
Through the rearview mirror, Mao Yu saw two cars following him the whole time.
Mao Yu's first reaction was that someone was tailing him.
Sure enough, his intuition was right!
He arrived at the next traffic light.
The red light turned on.
Mao Yu chose to ignore the red light, slammed his foot down on the accelerator, and the car shot out like an arrow from a bowstring.
The two cars driving laterally could not avoid it in time; they hurriedly steered, collided head-on, and their hoods were crushed, emitting white smoke.
Seeing this scene, the Police following behind were startled.
"Is he crazy? He just ran straight through the traffic light."
"He knows he's been discovered, that's why he's acting like a cornered dog, trying to make us hesitate to act!"
"What do we do now? If we keep chasing, will he do something even crazier?" The officer began to hesitate.
The Executive Deputy County Magistrate caused a traffic accident while resisting arrest.
If this news got out, it would really be a huge scandal!
"Hurry and report this to the superiors."
Zheng Shaokang received the message from his subordinates.
He hurried to the office to find Tang Ye for instructions.
"County Magistrate Tang, our people have been keeping an eye on Mao Yu. He seems to have discovered them and is acting very impulsively, running a red light directly and causing a traffic accident. Two cars collided, fortunately with no casualties. However, if we continue to pursue him, will he do something even more extreme?"
Tang Ye understood Zheng Shaokang's concerns.
Although Mao Yu was now classified as having violated laws and discipline, he had not yet accepted an investigation by the Discipline Inspection Commission.
At this moment, Mao Yu going rogue would cause many uncertain factors.
Tang Ye rubbed his chin and said in a deep voice, "Have your people follow from a distance; do not provoke him. I will call him."
Zheng Shaokang was stunned for a moment, "Understood."
Mao Yu ran several red lights in a row. He gripped the steering wheel, kept revving the engine, and his speed soared to 120 miles per hour.
At this moment, his phone rang.
Mao Yu took a glance; it was actually a call from Tang Ye.
After a moment of hesitation, he answered the phone.
"County Magistrate Tang, are you calling me at this time to humiliate me from the position of a victor?"
Tang Ye sighed, "Do you know that you are doing something very crazy?"
"Crazy? Haha, isn't it all because you forced me? Ever since you came to Yechuan, you've been going against me at every turn. I've endured and endured, why do you have to escalate things?" Mao Yu sneered, "Do you believe that if I floor the accelerator right now, the car will be destroyed and I will die, and your political future will be finished too?"
Tang Ye was silent for a few seconds, "There's no need to joke with your own life, is there?"
Mao Yu laughed loudly, "So you are afraid after all! No one has the qualifications to judge me. I've already made up my mind; at worst, we'll both perish."
Tang Ye shook his head and sighed at this, "County Magistrate Mao, I can be certain that you do not have the courage to die. Furthermore, if you die, it has nothing to do with my political career. Because the Government will announce to the public that you committed suicide out of fear of punishment! Because you cannot escape responsibility for the death of Comrade Zhou Songtao."
Mao Yu was stunned, "What does Zhou Songtao's death have to do with me? You are framing me!"
Tang Ye said, "As long as you're alive, there's a chance to prove your innocence; if you're dead, you'll only be stuck with a dirty label. Think it over clearly yourself!"
Mao Yu began to struggle internally, "Are you trying to use this to threaten me?"
Tang Ye shrugged and said, "You can try and see. History books are written by the victors. Besides, let me tell you one thing. We found an account book in one of your houses."
Mao Yu's pupils shook violently.
He realized that Li Haizao had betrayed him!
Tang Ye continued, "County Magistrate Mao, it's time for the story to end. Do you intend to be like the protagonist in a novel, giving up your life through suicide?"
Mao Yu gave a bitter smile, "A novel? You're really something. You even knew about that!"
Tang Ye said: "Hurry up and surrender, face the mistakes you've committed like a man, don't be a coward!"
Mao Yu hung up the phone; he had thought about ending it all once things were exposed, but when this day truly arrived, he discovered that his desire to survive outweighed everything else.
He did not want to die.
He wanted to live!
The police cars behind him turned on their police lights.
The Police officer in the passenger seat held a megaphone and shouted loudly, "Vehicle in front, pull over immediately!"
A tractor-trailer over ten meters long appeared in Mao Yu's field of vision.
In the novel, the protagonist was also chased by a group of police in the end.
Should he be like him, jerk the steering wheel hard and ram into the tractor-trailer, so that everything would be settled once and for all?
However, Tang Ye's phone call made him calm down.
Characters in novels can die whenever they want.
In reality, who isn't afraid of death?
In the end, he chose to let go of the accelerator, slowly decelerated, and pulled the car over to the side of the road.
The police cars sandwiched the Toyota Prado from the front and back!
The Police drew their guns and pointed them at Mao Yu.
Mao Yu took the initiative to unbuckle his seatbelt and said with a calm expression, "Rest assured, I will cooperate with you."
The Police informed Zheng Shaokang that they had captured Mao Yu.
Zheng Shaokang then reported to Tang Ye.
Tang Ye breathed a sigh of relief and dialed Han Zhengyi's number.
"Secretary Han, mission accomplished, we have intercepted Mao Yu."
