Chapter 4

Fang Jingwen calmed her emotions and said, "Of course you can, but the premise is that you don't talk nonsense again."

"And don't drag things out. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite to you. The Discipline Inspection Commission has many ways to deal with people like you. I guarantee you'll regret it."

Su Yang said with a solemn face, "I believe you have already seen that they are trying to frame Secretary Liu. And this was premeditated long ago."

"That's why they were so impatient to make me admit to these groundless things."

"I also know that because of the rape case, you particularly dislike me and have prejudices against me."

"But I guarantee with my Party spirit that it was deliberately staged by them."

"In the rape case, I was the one who was drugged. That pair of scoundrels framed me. The ones who were really having fun in the hotel were that pair of scoundrels."

"I have already asked someone to retrieve the evidence that proves my innocence. I will have them hand it to you later."

"Of course, these are not important to you and me at all. I was already designed to be detained and investigated by them."

"Their goal is to murder Secretary Liu."

"At this time, Secretary Liu should have already set off. He is going directly to Jingcheng to report on work."

"Once Secretary Liu reaches the airport and boards the plane, the lid on their collusion between officials and businessmen, their black-and-white dealings, and their disregard for human life in coal mines won't be able to be kept on."

"Therefore, they will definitely take action on the way."

"And the best choice for taking action is to cause a car accident."

"I think you should know what it means for a prefecture-level Municipal Party Committee Secretary to die in a car accident? Even provincial leaders will have to take responsibility."

"With so many people dead, such a big lid, it can be kept on for a while, but not for a lifetime. Secretary Liu was parachuted down precisely to lift this lid."

"Now, it shouldn't be difficult for you to have someone check Secretary Liu's itinerary, right?"

"If it's true, please make sure to let me out to save Secretary Liu, because right now, other than me, no one else can be trusted."

"For the sake of avoiding this political disaster in Ganzhou Province, for the sake of allowing so many wronged souls to rest in peace, and for the sake of returning Lancheng to a clear and bright world, can you do it?"

He had no time left. Laying all this out was a gamble on Fang Jingwen's conscience. A gamble that she would consider her father, the Provincial Party Committee Deputy Secretary who had good momentum for promotion, and also consider the political ecology of the entire Ganzhou Province.

This was the only way to turn the tide at the moment.

Sure enough, after hearing these words, Fang Jingwen's face changed drastically.

After thinking for a few seconds, she took out her phone and made a call, clearly to check Secretary Liu's itinerary. After getting confirmation, she quickly made another call.

"I have a situation here..."

Although Fang Jingwen didn't mention her position, Su Yang could guess who she was calling.

Soon Fang Jingwen hung up the phone and said, "I'll go with you now. If it's not as you said, you know the consequences."

Su Yang said gratefully, "Thank you, Director Fang."

"But this matter is very dangerous, you don't need to take the risk with me..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm afraid you'll run away, so I'm watching you. Follow me." Fang Jingwen interrupted Su Yang and walked out.

The two had just reached the elevator when they were blocked by Li Hongbo, Deputy Secretary of the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission, "Director Fang, what are you doing?"

"You want to release someone privately? That won't do. The matters concerning Su Yang haven't been explained clearly yet. This is not in accordance with the rules."

"Unless Mayor Ye orders the release, no one else's words will work."

Fang Jingwen couldn't be bothered to talk to such a person. Of course, she also knew what the situation in the Lancheng officialdom was. This group of people now completely followed the lead of Mayor Ye Zhou.

She directly took out her phone and dialed the previous number, "I want to take Secretary Liu's secretary away, but the Lancheng Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission disagrees, saying that except for Mayor Ye's words, no one else's words work."

"I don't know if your words work."

After Fang Jingwen finished speaking, regardless of what the other party said, she handed the phone directly to Li Hongbo.

Li Hongbo had just said "Hello" when he heard a majestic voice from the receiver, "I am Fang Runan of the Provincial Party Committee. Who are you?"

"I order you to move aside immediately and let Director Fang take the person away."

Li Hongbo was petrified on the spot and said tremblingly, "Secretary Fang, I am the Municipal Discipline Inspection Commission..."

Before he could finish, the phone had already been hung up. He had a pale face and stiffly moved aside to clear the way.

It wasn't until Su Yang and Fang Jingwen went downstairs that he regained his composure and took out his phone to make a call.

After the two went downstairs, just as Fang Jingwen was about to get into her 80% new Santana, Su Yang looked at the time and said urgently, "There's no time, let me drive."

It was already 7:30. If he remembered correctly, Secretary Liu's car accident happened around 8:00. And from here to the accident scene, there was still a half-hour drive.

Fang Jingwen hesitated for a moment and threw the car keys to Su Yang.

Su Yang thanked her gratefully and slammed on the gas, shooting out.

"Ah..."

This near-wheelie start made Fang Jingwen scream directly. This was driving too violently; her little heart couldn't take it.

However, a moment later, she adapted to the thrill of the car speeding through the road. The racing scenes she had seen on TV before were now reflected in reality.

At this moment, she didn't feel it was dangerous at all; instead, she felt it was very fun to play...

Perhaps, this was the only "wild" moment outside of her daily boring and tedious work.

Su Yang didn't notice Fang Jingwen's expression. He was now single-mindedly wanting to reach the accident scene as fast as possible, hoping everything would be in time.

Fortunately, there weren't many private cars at the moment. The half-hour journey took only fifteen minutes.

At this moment, Secretary Liu's car had just driven not far out of the urban area. Further ahead was a five-kilometer-long downhill section.

There were several sharp turns on this road. In his previous life, Secretary Liu's car lost control at one of the sharp turns and rushed out directly.

Later, the accident detection result was brake failure, which directly led to this accident.

But almost everyone knew that someone had tampered with the car in advance.

But the person who did it was careful; they didn't break the brakes directly, but loosened the parts connecting the brake pedal to the brake system. The car would only completely disconnect and fail after driving for a period of time.

Otherwise, it would probably have been discovered before leaving the house.

"Keep calling Secretary Liu until you get through. Calling his driver is also fine."

Seeing that Secretary Liu's car had reached the downhill section, Su Yang said urgently.

His phone had been confiscated when he was arrested by the Public Security Bureau.

Fang Jingwen continued to dial while saying, "Secretary Liu isn't answering the phone..."

"Leaders generally don't answer calls from strangers, especially at this sensitive time."

"His driver's phone is turned off, probably fearing interference."

Su Yang made a bold plan and said, "Since that's the case, there's only one way. Hold on tight to the handle."

"We're going to force Secretary Liu's car to stop..."
