Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 575 - 575 571 Sighed

575: Chapter 571: Sighed 575: Chapter 571: Sighed Fan Feipeng and his group confronted Ye Fan aggressively.

But before Ye Fan could speak, Xu Xiangli, who was following behind, took the initiative to strike out, “Captain Fan, handling a case isn’t about saving face, it’s about sticking to the truth!

If we act rashly and cause an unjust death, no one can bear that responsibility!”

Miao Fei stepped forward, waved the evidence in his hand, and said, “Captain Fan, this is the item from the crime scene involving three victims that we found in the suspect’s home.

With such a strong suspicion, it would be more than justified to arrest and bring him back to the station for questioning!”

Faced with Xu Deli and Miao Jian’s legitimate counterattacks, especially since absolute evidence had been found, Fan Feipeng and his followers were instantly suppressed and couldn’t speak for the moment, with very displeased expressions on their faces.

Ye Fan said nothing, ignored Fan Feipeng and the others, and led Xu Xiangli, Miao Jian, and the rest of the team as they escorted Teacher Jin past Fan Feipeng and towards the detention cells.

It wasn’t long before news of Ye Fan capturing the suspect and obtaining absolute evidence reached Tang Xianlong’s ears.

“This Ye Fan really is as fearless as a calf is of a tiger, daring to directly enter Mingde High School to make an arrest,” Tang Xianlong couldn’t help but secretly think.

Indeed, when the case was initially investigated, Fan Feipeng and others had suspected that the murderer might be hiding at Mingde High School, but without being absolutely sure, no one dared to randomly enter Wei Hanyuan’s territory to search.

After Jiang Weidong was caught, everyone forgot about Mingde High School.

Tang Xianlong picked up the phone and called Ye Fan, “Comrade Ye, please come to my office.”

Two or three minutes later, Ye Fan entered Tang Xianlong’s office.

Tang Xianlong’s demeanor was clearly much more amiable.

Of course, he still didn’t have a good impression of Ye Fan.

He had personally signed off on the case review that declared Jiang Weidong as the real culprit.

Even though the truth of the case had to be respected, Ye Fan did indeed slap his superior in the face.

“Comrade Ye, you’ve done well this time and deserve recognition,” Tang Xianlong still seated at his desk, said to Ye Fan, “However, our police department is one body, and as the serial murder case has a special task force set up, Captain Fan Feipeng will be in charge of the following interrogation work.

What do you think?”

“No problem,” Ye Fan was indifferent.

That he found the real murderer so quickly was not solely his own achievement.

Fan Feipeng and the others had already done a lot of work in the early stages.

For example, the dossier that was over a hundred pages thick was put together by Fan Feipeng and others, and it was based on this dossier that he found clues to the murderer, coupled with some luck.

Moreover, as a military man, he greatly values the spirit of teamwork and fully agrees with Tang Xianlong’s emphasis on team spirit.

Besides, he wasn’t trying to rack up considerable achievements to get promoted.

Seeing Ye Fan didn’t refuse and agreed readily, Tang Xianlong couldn’t help but admire Ye Fan’s political acumen.

He had thought that Ye Fan, being young and aggressive and having faced much resistance before making his move, would surely be stubborn.

With less contention, Tang Xianlong was in a good mood and showed a bit of a smile, “I’m glad you understand.

Captain Fan Feipeng might be a bit emotional, and I will appease him.”

Ye Fan exited the chief’s office and returned to his.

He saw Xu Xiangli, Wang Xianzhong, and Miao Jian standing at the entrance.

As Ye Fan approached, Xu Xiangli, Wang Xianzhong, and Miao Jian immediately greeted him, calling out, “Comrade.”

“Hmm,” Ye Fan nodded, opened the door, went in, and Xu Xiangli and the others followed, then closed the door.

After about ten minutes, Xu Xiangli, Wang Xianzhong, and Miao Jian left.

They hadn’t come for anything important, mainly to express their loyalty.

Of course, showing loyalty wasn’t put so bluntly; it was just an arrangement to invite Ye Fan for dinner that night.

As a leader, Ye Fan couldn’t possibly let his subordinates treat him to dinner, so he decided to treat them instead.

After Xu Xiangli and the others had left, Ye Fan took out Jiang Weidong’s parents’ contact information from the dossier and called Jiang Weidong’s father using the office phone.

The phone connected quickly, and Ye Fan spoke normally, “Hello, I am Ye Fan, deputy political commissar and the head of the Public Security Brigade at the county police station.

You are Jiang Weidong’s father, Jiang Dalin, right?”

“Yes, yes, yes…” The voice of Jiang Weidong’s father came through the phone excitedly, “Comrade Ye, have you caught the real killer?

My son isn’t the murderer; he couldn’t do something so inhumane…”

“We’ve apprehended another suspect, but we can’t yet fully confirm Jiang Weidong’s innocence,” Ye Fan stated.

An excited and joyous voice came from the phone, followed by crying, “Thank you, Comrade Ye, you are truly Bao Qingtian reincarnated.

Once my son is cleared, our entire family will surely reward you…”

“Jiang Dalin!” Ye Fan immediately frowned and cut off Jiang Weidong’s father, speaking sternly, “Investigating the case isn’t just my achievement, it’s the result of the joint efforts of the entire police station.

I called you to notify that Jiang Weidong’s trial will be delayed or canceled.

Also, please refrain from seeking me out in the future, especially not to repeat what happened this morning.

If you wish to express gratitude, please thank the entire police department.”

This morning, he had been put on a hot seat but fortunately, he already knew the real culprit, which allowed the tables to turn.

If tomorrow morning, Jiang Weidong’s parents and wife were to kneel publicly in gratitude again, slapping half the faces of the police department, including Chief Tang Xianlong, he would once again become the target of criticism.

Ye Fan guessed that Jiang Weidong’s family was being manipulated by someone behind the scenes, so in order to prevent them from being used again to attack him, he had to warn them in advance.

Jiang Weidong’s father could tell from Ye Fan’s tone that he did not want them to seek him out again, so he had no choice but agree.

After the call, Ye Fan tapped on the desk, thinking to himself, “Once there’s a result on the case, I must root out the person daring to plot against me, don’t think I can be bullied!”

Just now, he hadn’t taken the opportunity to ask about the instigator behind the scenes, mainly because the outcome of the case wasn’t out yet, and Jiang Weidong’s family might not be willing to disclose the instigator.

After pondering for a while, Ye Fan remembered that he had to invite Xu Xiangli and the others to dinner tonight, so he took out his phone and called Wei Ziling to tell her he wouldn’t be coming home for dinner.

In Chen Kunfei’s office, Chen Kunfei was seated in his office chair, glaring at Fang Jinsan.

Fang Jinsan was sweating bullets under immense pressure.

Losing Chen Kunfei’s favor was one thing, but more crucially, he was not just involved in a scheme against Ye Fan; he had personally instructed Jiang Weidong’s family to act against Ye Fan.

Now Ye Fan had managed to completely turn things around in just one morning.

Clearly, Ye Fan was not a fool and must have uncovered his involvement.

Once Ye Fan cemented his position, Fang Jinsan wouldn’t have good days ahead – being demoted or even kicked out of the police force was possible.

He was just a team leader, and it would be too easy for Ye Fan to catch him in a vulnerable spot.
