Chapter 647: Chapter 410 Main Text of History

"Conspiracy! This was a damn conspiracy from the start!"

Listening to the familiar conversation from the recording, all Iwazaki Yuhei felt was this angry scream within his heart.

Who would have thought that just by meeting Director Li once, he would have left behind leverage and evidence against himself?

But why?

At that time, he had not even declared his intentions.

Would a normal person, meeting a stranger for the first time and not even knowing what the other party was there for, think of purposely keeping a record of the conversation?

Life is about first encounters; why keep the recorder on the entire time?

What kind of twisted vigilance is this?

Showing off the large capacity of his phone, eh!

He absolutely did not believe that this was an unintentional act by Li Haitao. From the current situation, the recording was clearly a trap set against him!

No wonder a plan that was supposed to be foolproof mysteriously failed!

Li Haitao! It must have been that Li Haitao backstabbing him!

I originally thought I was dealing with a novice, but it turned out he was playing a deep game!

Caught utterly off guard!

This guy is too cunning!

But no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn’t understand: knowing he had dirty tricks of his own, did he really think his confession would lessen the punishment?

Theft of cultural relics, involving especially huge amounts—ten years or more of imprisonment, or even life imprisonment, and confiscation of property are also possible!

Doesn’t the other side understand that even if they "self-detonate," Iwazaki Yuhei, with the support of the Iwazaki family, might not necessarily be in trouble, but Li Haitao surely would be ruined!

Could Li Haitao really be from a suicide squad?

That daring, huh?

Clearly unreasonable. Hence, after eliminating all other possibilities, the only possibility is...

Before he even had a chance to tempt or threaten Li Haitao, he must have already been controlled by someone!

"Iwazaki Yuhei, given the circumstances, aren’t you willing to confess honestly?"

Facing the police’s questions, Iwazaki Yuhei acted as if he hadn’t heard them.

Having figured out the ins and outs, only a huge mystery remained in his mind...

Exactly who was conspiring behind Li Haitao to set him up?

His every move was obviously under the other party’s surveillance, but how could the other party have known the plans in advance in order to set such a vicious trap?

Did he slip up in advance, or...

Is someone within the family scheming against me?

...

Capital City, Iwazaki family.

"Crash!" "Useless!" Iwazaki Hanzo, enraged, smashed the valuable antique tea cup in his hand.

He never thought that not only had the object not been retrieved, but the person had been arrested!

The moment the news reached him, he already harbored thoughts of expelling his grandson Iwazaki Yuhei from the family.

A top financial conglomerate from Fusang country, to steal cultural relics from Country Hua, such an incident was no small matter.

This was incomparable in impact to a previous "armored car heist" involving several unimportant characters being caught.

Even the General Consul Chi Song from the consulate in Shanghai had just personally called him.

He stated that Country Hua had already expressed strong dissatisfaction through the consulate in private, with tones of complaints and worries, hoping that the Iwazaki family would step in to appease Country Hua’s fury.

Clearly, the consulate was already unable to smooth over the issue.

The reason it had not been made public yet, brought to light, is because the issue had already involved dignitaries of two countries.

There is an understanding between the two parties, and the higher echelons often uphold the diplomatic principle of "Give people a way out, so that they can meet with a clear face in the future." In such cases, they generally would not directly tear face to face.

You give me a little respect, I give you a step down.

Otherwise, once the conflict is publicized, it will definitely escalate to the level of public opinion.

This would ruin the political tacit agreement of "fighting without breaking" between the two sides.

Like on a previous occasion when a Fusang spy was captured; it also ended up being downplayed, and ordinary people couldn’t sense the overt and covert struggles.

This also subtly shows Fusang’s influence in Country Hua.

Thanks to Huaxia’s weakness after World War II, Fusang has made massive investments in various fields within Country Hua, binding interests with the first batch of rich.

And they realized the power of media early on, actively supporting "pro-Fusang" scholars-as-celebrities.

Clear-eyed people could see that although there was a deep-seated hatred between the two parties, within a mere few decades, the historically notorious South Peninsula had actually pulled ahead, becoming the top "negative image ambassador"...

The tacit understanding between the two parties has developed to the present, taking into account registered dignitaries like Iwazaki Yuhei.

Even if he commited a crime on the other party’s territory, as long as he could pay a corresponding price, he could still maintain the status of a "decent man."

However, if he can’t give Country Hua a satisfactory explanation, Iwazaki Yuhei might have to go through "normal procedures" and spend several years in a Hua prison...

"Grandfather, please calm down, it’s not entirely Yuhei’s fault."

Inside the room, a young man in his early twenties, handsome in appearance, began to speak and advise.

Iwazaki Hanzo, still furious, replied, "Hideyoshi, you don’t need to make excuses for him. Whatever the reasons are, the result of the matter being handled this way, he can’t escape the blame!"

Iwazaki Hideyoshi, the youngest direct descendant of the Iwazaki family.

As the youngest son of a financial conglomerate family, Iwazaki Hideyoshi had always been the most cherished by Iwazaki Hanzo.

Together with Iwazaki Yuhei, they were considered the most likely competitors for the next Iwazaki Family Head.

In a country known for longevity like Fusang, this kind of generational inheritance is not uncommon.

Although the current family head, Iwazaki Hanzo, is already in his nineties, he is "well-preserved" and continuing to live another ten to twenty years wouldn’t be out of the ordinary.

By then, how could the already gray-haired second generation compete with the energetic third generation in their thirties and forties?
