Chapter 1178: Confession and Plan

Confession and Plan

Everyone knows that people have flaws and have pain that they cannot bear.

As long as the pain they bear exceeds their maximum limit, they will become very obedient.

The term "pain education" applies not only to children. When they are disobedient and do something wrong, beating them up can give them a profound lesson and memory, and they won't make the same mistake again.

It is equally applicable when used on adults. This kind of means does not distinguish between sizes.

Many people... especially some young people, always feel that their parents are the most powerful people in this world.

But in fact, as long as they are sent in front of torture, they are actually not much different from children.

They will tremble because of fear, and will also shed tears because of fear.

People are just like this.

But some people can use these means, for example, people like Lans, gang members. They are the group that uses violence and death to threaten others and achieve their goals.

But there are also some people who are not suitable for using these means, and these are those who hold power in their hands.

If they use these means unscrupulously, society will collapse.

The greater the power in their hands, the more they need to be vigilant about these things. Perhaps someone wants to become a tyrant, a dictator, but no one hopes that others will become tyrants or dictators.

After hearing Lans's name, the prosecutor considered it for a while and nodded. His face even showed an expression of slightly envious, "They do things more freely than us."

If prosecutors could also do things as freely as gangs, there would be much less trouble in this world, and there wouldn't be so many cases that are not easy to solve.

After the prosecutor left, Senator Cleveland talked to Lans about this matter. For Lans, this was just a small matter.

After a day, Luo Bu was brought into the interrogation room again. His face was very calm and composed. He knew the law enforcement agencies, including the Prosecutor's Office, very well.

Without solving all the problems and distinguishing truth from falsehood, this case would not go to court for trial.

If he were just a small character, he might skip part of the process, but he is not any small character, so the Prosecutor's Office must investigate every case he "confessed" according to the case information he provided, and then unify the prosecution.

This is his opportunity.

He can drag it until after January 1st. He believes that after "Mr. Potter" becomes "President Potter," he will definitely help him get out of trouble here, so what he needs to do now is to reveal some clues and evidence, true and false, to the Prosecutor's Office.

Let the Prosecutor's Office be busy investigating these cases, instead of starting to try him.

When he was brought into the interrogation room, ready to "recall" something with the prosecutor responsible for this case, he was stunned for a moment.

Because the person sitting opposite the table was not a prosecutor, not a prosecutor general, but Lans.

"It seems you are very surprised?" Lans smiled and raised his hand to invite him to sit down, "I'm not used to looking up and talking to others, why don't you sit down?"

Luo Bu's emotions underwent some changes. Visibly, his eyes were filled with a tense emotion.

After a few seconds, he came to the opposite of Lans, pulled the chair, and sat down.

He wanted to say something to ease his tense emotions, but didn't know what to say, so he could only lower his head slightly and not speak.

Lans appeared very relaxed. He took out his silver gemstone cigarette case, "Would you like one?"

Here, the prosecutors didn't restrict Luo Bu from smoking. After all, he is also a senior federal employee. Before completely confirming all his criminal situations, he can still enjoy some preferential treatment.

What's more, even if he is in prison, prisoners can also smoke cigarettes, so Luo Bu is not short of cigarettes here.

However, now, he does need it.

He took one from Lans's hand, "I don't have a fire."

Although they didn't restrict Luo Bu from smoking, they didn't give him a lighter. The federal government is always like this, letting you feel that you possess everything, but when you really use the things you possess, you will find that these things have long been shackled.

Smoking is like this, voting is also, and there are many other things.

Lans took out a lighter to help him light the cigarette and also lit one for himself. He always had that kind of faint, reserved, and confident smile on his face, "They asked me to come over and chat with you to see if we can reach an agreement on some issues."

Luo Bu took a puff of smoke and exhaled slowly, "You want me to plead guilty?"

He knew what these people wanted, and also knew very well that the other party saw through his strategy of dragging time, but... so what?

A proud smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Dream on."

A very calm sentence, but it also showed the confident emotion in his heart.

Lans shook his head while smoking, "Look, this is the biggest difference between me and you."

"You are law enforcers, everything is constrained by judicial processes and rules and regulations. Every step of how to do it, to what extent, and what cannot be done, has strict specifications."

"As long as you violate the specifications and violate the process, there will be problems."

"However, Luo Bu..." Lans pressed his hands on the edge of the table, his body leaning forward, "I am the gang bastard in your mouth!"

He looked at the stunned expression on Luo Bu's face, the smile became more obvious, and the arc of the corner of his mouth became larger. He slowly leaned back again, "I don't need to follow the things you said. No process, no rules and regulations, I want to do whatever I want."

He put the cigarette butt into his mouth, took a "hiss" puff, "I remember before, didn't you say in the newspaper or somewhere that gangs are inhuman, despicable, and shameless criminal groups? Look, you already know, why do you still have fantasies at this time?"

The pride on Luo Bu's face had disappeared, replaced by a kind of unease, and some hatred, "What do you want to do?"

Lans pointed directly to the core without hesitation, "Your family, and yourself."

"Just like I said just now, you think I am a gang, then I will do what a gang should do."

"You don't follow our rules of the game, then I will give you punishment."

"First is your child, then your wife, and finally your other family members, for example, parents, brothers, and sisters."

"Our time is not much, so I won't give you too much time to consider. You have two children, let's start with the older one."

He said and took the cigarette, went to the back, took out a phone from a cabinet, brought it to the table between the two, and then dialed a phone number and handed the receiver over.

Luo Bu was a bit hesitant, delayed. He probably knew what was inside, so he didn't dare to pick it up.

"Don't you want to hear your eldest son's voice now?"

"This might be the last time you communicate."

Luo Bu's eyeballs were a bit red, and he glared at Lans fiercely, "One day, you will pay the price for everything you have done, Lans!"

Lans shrugged indifferently, "I don't know if I will pay the price, but you definitely won't wait for that day. Your child won't either."

Luo Bu's trembling hand picked up the receiver and put it to his ear. His heavy breathing seemed to let the person on the opposite side know he was listening to the phone, and immediately the cry for help from his son came out, "Who can come to save me, no matter who?"

"I am very scared now, I don't want to die..."

Death for a teenager is a problem he has never thought about, not even imagined inadvertently, but now it has truly fallen in front of him. How can he not be afraid?

Listening to his eldest son's crying, Luo Bu's face became darker and darker. His hand holding the receiver was very forceful. He knew one thing very clearly.

Perhaps others are joking, but Lans is definitely not joking!

"... Don't worry, you will be fine, everything will be fine." He finished the phone call and put the receiver on the phone base.

The constantly undulating chest showed that the surging emotions in his body were colliding, struggling. His face showed some tangled painful expressions.

He actually experienced this kind of thing, but he wasn't standing on his current side, but on Lans's side, or rather, it could be considered the "perpetrator" side.

He always mocked those people, why they had to confess the problem only after bearing huge damage, when they could have confessed without bearing any damage?

Or rather, the final result is the same, why do they have to bear the pain, verify their "capacity," and then do what they should do?

Isn't this stupid?

So he is very tangled now.

Lans didn't urge him either. People always have to go through some struggles before they gradually understand, it's just that some people's struggles end quickly, and some people need to pay some price.

After about four or five minutes, Luo Bu exhaled heavily, "You win."

"Let them go, I will carry this matter alone."

He looked a bit exhausted. He considered countless possibilities, almost seeing no light.

He could maintain his current state, say nothing, cooperate with nothing, and wait for Lans to kill all his family members, but then what?

When the hatred between them has completely no room for relaxation, the next thing Lans, or the Cleveland Senator interest group behind him, wants to get rid of is him, this small character.

Because if he can live and leave here, he will only become the most ferocious dog under Mr. Potter, crazily biting Senator Cleveland and these people.

They won't allow him to continue living. They will definitely find a way to kill him in the Prosecutor's Office.

There is actually a very interesting thing here. Since he can be killed, why ask him to plead guilty?

Killing someone is easy, but such a death won't bring any "value" to society. But if Luo Bu can plead guilty, it will cause a huge reaction in society, and at the same time, Mr. Potter, who employed him, will also be affected.

He employed a moth of the Federation, let a criminal become the director of the fastest-rising law enforcement department in the Federation, and people will question whether Mr. Potter's vision is as good as they imagined, otherwise why would he employ a criminal?

This kind of influence is not reflected immediately, but it is indeed existing. When similar things happen in the future, because there is a "precedent," people's trust in Mr. Potter will not be so high.

Political struggle has never been a simple matter. When it is known that it is impossible to win against Mr. Potter and these people of the Liberal Party in a short time, and cannot win.

Stripping away the basis of people's trust in them bit by bit, letting them expose more problems, will play a vital role in the frontal confrontation in the future.

Federal people not only like to imagine the future, but also like to settle old scores. Presidents like to settle old scores, ruling parties like to settle old scores, and any politician is like this.

So from the perspective of value, Luo Bu admitting his crimes, and even possibly involving some things about Mr. Potter, is the best and most valuable option for the Social Party at present.

Digging out personal value is the most correct choice for the superior, but if he really dies hard, then he can only be dealt with.

Although it is a pity to do so, at least it won't cause other troubles.

Lans understands these things, and Luo Bu also knows, so he quickly made this decision.

Instead of dying silently here with his family, it is better to burn his value for the last time, at least to let his family live.

Luo Bu licked his lips, "As long as you promise me two things, I will plead guilty."

Lans nodded, "If I can promise."

"First, give my wife and two children a sum of money, and don't continue to harass them."

Lans nodded, "This is easy, I will give them twenty thousand, and they will be adults and find a new life."

Luo Bu considered it for a while and had no objection, "Twenty thousand is already a lot, enough for them to use for a lifetime."

He didn't ask for more. More money is good, but it will also cause some unnecessary trouble, for example, making children become lazy, or causing trouble because of this money.

Before, there was his care, and he didn't dare to give too much at once. Later, without his care, if someone knew that this family was very rich, then someone would definitely stare at them.

The Federation has never been a paradise. As a law enforcer, he knows very well that the plundering of the upper class, the extortion of the lower class, if a person possesses wealth but does not have the ability to protect his wealth.

Then wealth is poison, not a guarantee of happiness.

"Second thing... my wife now, I hope you can help me handle the person who got her pregnant."

This can also be considered a humiliation in his heart. A woman, not only betrayed him, but also got pregnant with another man and made him so embarrassed. He has never been so aggrieved!

Lans was a bit surprised, "Do you need me to help you handle that woman too?"

Luo Bu shook his head, "Although I also hate her, I owe her."

He is not unaware, nor does he not understand.

Lans agreed, "You can wait two days, I will arrange everything, and I also hope you can fulfill your promise, instead of treating my kindness as a fun trick."

He watched Lans stand up and immediately added, "I can plead guilty now."

Facing Lans's gaze, he smiled self-deprecatingly, "I believe you won't lie to me."

More than ten minutes later, the prosecutor brought some prosecutors to the interrogation room. Luo Bu didn't struggle or tangle much and began to plead guilty.

It's just that what made Lans, or rather the prosecutor, and others not expect was that he not only confessed himself, but also confessed the group of upper-class figures in his hometown.

It seems he knows that his case will be made into an iron case that cannot be overturned, so in the cases related to him, all the people involved will go to hell with him!

Then why should he let those people go?

Those people who influenced his whole life!

If there were no those people, perhaps the current him would still be the him he once was, instead of the current him who can do anything to achieve his goal.

Luo Bu's confession made the development of the case very rapid. A prosecutor on the Liberal Party side found an opportunity to leave the Prosecutor's Office, dialed his good friend's phone, and sent this news out.

Mr. Potter knew about this at the first moment. After all, Luo Bu was employed by him, although the nomination was nominated by the current President, and the passage was passed by Congress, but everyone knows that the person who truly nominated him was him.

If Luo Bu confesses more things in the Prosecutor's Office in order to seek self-preservation, including some things he asked the other party to do, it is very likely to cause some unpredictable consequences.

He is a bit hesitant now, whether to kill Luo Bu.

He sat there thinking, and has been in the current state of thinking for a period of time.

His son couldn't help but say, "What are you waiting for?"

"Luo Bu knows quite a few things about us, including the reporter who was silenced, he also knows, and participated in a part of it."

"If Senator Cleveland and those people reach any deal with him, for example, protecting him, or letting the current President sign a pardon, maybe he will confess us."

"Now the Prosecutor's Office and Congress are still under the control of the Social Party. Once they start the impeachment procedure in advance, in order to maintain the integrity of the procedure, they will definitely keep the current Congress lineup until the impeachment case ends."

"You are very likely to be successfully impeached!"

"And, Father, you are not the only choice of the Liberal Party."

He has already won the election. Now he is indeed very important to the Liberal Party, but it is not that he cannot be abandoned, because even if he is impeached, the Vice President will top up and become the new Federal President, and the Vice President is also a Liberal Party member.

Power is always within the party, nothing more than changing from the left hand to the right hand. The Liberal Party side may not be able to protect him at all costs.

Politics is like this, changing every moment.

In the last second they might be friends, but in the next second, they are opponents.

Mr. Potter seemed to have gradually made a decision in his son's persuasion. He pursed his lips, and his lips were squeezed very thin, "Do it, I will help you arrange it."
