Chapter 826: You Are the Mistress
"Alright, I will investigate this clearly, but what exactly is going on with that Living Corpse?" Zhou Xinyan asked.
"The Living Corpse is not a major problem; it wasn't the work of an expert. It should be someone who understands a bit of sorcery in this regard, but we still need to investigate who is responsible," Chen Yu said. "Take extra care of Chen Shaochong; make sure you don't let him leave easily."
"Alright, I understand." Zhou Xinyan nodded.
At the police station, a group of teenagers had already been picked up. When Chen Yu and Zhou Xinyan arrived at the police station, a Bentley was parked at the entrance, and Chen Shaochong was just coming out from inside.
Seeing Chen Yu, Chen Shaochong couldn't help but shiver. He shrank his head back, hid behind a woman, and said fearfully, "Aunt, he, he's the one who hit me."
And this woman was none other than Qiu Yanfang. Because Chen Shaochong had been given special attention, only Qiu Yanfang could personally step forward to bail him out.
"Xiaoyu, it's you." Seeing Chen Yu, Qiu Yanfang put on a smiling face. "You might not know, but this is your cousin Shaochong. This time, it really was a case of the floodwaters washing away the Dragon King's temple."
"I know who he is. Don't worry, the next time I see him, I still won't show any mercy," Chen Yu said indifferently.
"What is going on with you all? Have you finished questioning?" Zhou Xinyan asked a police officer.
"Someone from the main bureau spoke up, and among that group of kids, someone voluntarily took all the blame. Team Leader Zhou, there is nothing we can do," a police officer said helplessly.
"Xiaoyu, we are family. There might be some misunderstandings between us," Qiu Yanfang said with a chuckle. "We should visit each other more often in the future, and you should come back to the Chen Family to visit more."
"Sorry, I have no relationship with you. Family? Heh, I can't afford that." Chen Yu sneered. He raised his head and looked at Qiu Yanfang. "Besides, a mistress rising to power is always a mistress rising to power. Even if you are the one calling the shots in the Chen Family now, Chen Anyi's heart isn't with you, is it?"
The smile on Qiu Yanfang's face froze instantly. She wanted to maintain her smile, but Chen Yu's words were like a knife stabbing into her heart. The muscles on her face twitched, looking somewhat ferocious.
She got into the car in a rage and ordered the driver to leave quickly, not even caring about Chen Shaochong.
In the car, Qiu Yanfang took a deep breath, trying hard to calm her agitated mood. She took out her phone and dialed a number: "I want to get rid of He Lingyun."
"The timing is not right," a hoarse voice came from the other side of the receiver.
"I am not discussing this with you; I am ordering you," Qiu Yanfang screamed. "Don't forget, the Heavenly Mandate Elder left you in Shengjing to assist me."
The other party was silent for a moment before saying, "Let's deliberate on this matter in the long term. I only take orders from the Heavenly Mandate Elder, and you are nothing but a chess piece he left in the Chen Family to control it. Don't take yourself too seriously."
"Heh, are you afraid? You are ranked ninth among the Ten Asuras under the Heavenly Mandate Elder. The dignified Red-Faced Asura Xie Yu is actually afraid?" Qiu Yanfang sneered. "If you won't do it, I'll do it myself. I simply want to get rid of He Lingyun; I don't want her to stay alive at all."
She hung up the phone abruptly. Qiu Yanfang's face was livid. She let out a deep breath, and her gaze became profound.
"What is the background of that kid who voluntarily confessed to everything?" After Qiu Yanfang left, Chen Yu asked.
"A rich second-generation kid, a student at Mingrun High School. He is in the same group as that Wang Yu and Chen Shaochong. This guy said that the drugs for Zhou Jing were also administered by him, and those girls were also lured over by him," Zhou Xinyan said.
"That kid is quite daring to take all the blame upon himself," Chen Yu sneered. "Did he receive some kind of benefit?"
"I don't know about that, but he took all the blame on himself, and he is very tight-lipped. We have no way," Zhou Xinyan sighed and said. "However, we will continue the interrogation later."
"That Wang Yu is no good either. His father is a principal of a middle school and should have been transferred recently. He just took office, and he's already targeting girls?" Chen Yu sneered. "Check Wang Yu's background."
"Alright, I will." Zhou Xinyan nodded slightly.
Chen Yu kept this matter in mind, but he did not expect that a moment of soft-heartedness and failing to deal with these scumbags would later lead to a great disaster caused by them.
The next day, Gu Ping called excitedly, saying that he had been reinstated and was now at a military base, inviting Chen Yu to come and visit.
Gu Ping was about to get married; he had already received his marriage certificate and was getting married soon, which was why the Old Master Gu was willing to let him return to his original unit.
"Brother Yu, up ahead is the training base where I am stationed. Ordinary people can't get in. Today, I'll take you for a tour." Gu Ping drove a military off-road vehicle toward a mountain in the suburbs.
"You are so excited." Chen Yu was a bit dumbfounded, but he knew that people like Gu Ping had the heritage of war in their bones and blood.
The Old Master Gu was almost entirely loyal on the battlefield back then, leaving only the bloodline of Gu Ping's father. However, Gu Ping's father and mother both died for their country at the border, and Gu Ping was not a coward either; the soul of a Huaxia soldier burned in his bones.
The car entered the mountains, and not long after, they saw the sign for a military restricted area. The off-road vehicle roared with its engine, speeding toward the base.
This base was not an ordinary military training base. The further in they went, the stricter the guards became. Moreover, the steel guns in the hands of the guards along the way were loaded with real bullets, until a bright sight appeared, and a large gate manifested before Chen Yu's eyes.
This was a base in front of the mountain. The entire mountain body here had been hollowed out, and the base extended more than ten meters underground.
There were triangular road barriers at the entrance, and several rows of military green armored vehicles were neatly arranged in the open space of the gate. Moving further inside, there were dozens of armed helicopters, and even further in, there were actually several fighter jets on both sides of the long runway.
Chen Yu couldn't help but feel a jolt of spirit. As a man, this was his first time seeing such combat machines; these things were things that men yearned for in their hearts.
After completing the procedures at the entrance, a guard gave a standard military salute to Gu Ping and said with excitement, "Colonel Gu, welcome back."
Gu Ping's expression was solemn as he returned the salute. His eyes were slightly red, and he appeared very moved, because he had once thought that he would never be able to return in this lifetime.
Chen Yu felt a shiver in his heart. Gu Ping was only in his twenties and was already a field-grade officer; one step further would be a general. Such a young field-grade officer was definitely not because of his Old Master; he himself must have performed countless military exploits.
