796: Chapter 796: The Supreme Art of War is to Subdue the Enemy Without Fighting!

Beauty’s Metamorphosis!

Arrogant?

Wu Jie gave a faint smile, ignoring Shen Liang’s cold, surprised, and questioning gaze.

“You just answer the question, who exactly are you conspiring with to betray our country for profit?”

Wham!

Shen Liang flew into a sudden rage!

Bloodshot eyes, wide and furious.

He was so agitated that he struggled frantically.

Had it not been for the handcuffs and leg irons, he would have surely leapt out of bed to give Wu Jie a thrashing.

“It’s you who’s betraying our country for profit!

I’ve never done it!

The Kong Family hasn’t either!

None of us have!!”

Shen Liang bellowed angrily, and to any discerning eye, it was clear that he was at the end of his rope, his vicious nature showing through.

“Why are you so furious?”

Watching Shen Liang’s rage boil over, Wu Jie said with a cold laugh:

“There’s an old saying, ‘If you don’t want anyone to know, don’t do it at all!’ So don’t worry about whether the Security Bureau is investigating Kong Hailin or not!”

“You just answer, how did you make your money over these past two years, spending lavishly as you have?”

Shen Liang huffed loudly!

Sitting back against the headboard, he said coldly:

“I have many friends and connections.

They give me money to spend, is that a problem?”

“Is that so?”

Wu Jie took out his cell phone and flipped through some records.

“Last year, on April 22nd, at 19:05, an account you control received a transfer of 5.5 million yuan!”

“And on June 4th, at 21:17, that account received another 12.85 million yuan…”

Pausing briefly, Wu Jie glanced at Shen Liang from the corner of his eye.

“You’ve used other people’s identities to open several cards, with substantial financial transactions.

Do I need to recite each one to you?”

Shen Liang scoffed: “It’s from business I’ve done, what’s wrong with that?”

Wu Jie chuckled: “But just now you said it was your friends giving you money to spend, so why are you now saying it’s from your own business earnings?”

Contradictory statements, there was clearly something to hide.

Shen Liang had long since fallen upon hard times, so why did he still have such large sums of money flowing in?

He didn’t own a company, had no investments or shares to speak of, nor many properties to sell or rent out.

As a result…

Every transaction was large, and the amounts varied, with no specific dates.

Tracing back to the source, although the funds ultimately did not end up in accounts under the names of people like Kong Heng or Kong Hailin.

Nowadays, who among those doing evil deeds would be foolish enough to store their dirty money under their own names, making it easy to be investigated and caught?

Of course not.

The reason Wu Jie sought out Shen Liang was also rooted in purpose.

Soon after Shen Liang was arrested, someone attempted to have him held in custody in Liuli City for trial, in order to facilitate control over him.

Especially since Shen Liang had been diagnosed with a new variant virus, with not much time left.

The whole world knew that within two days, the condition would inevitably worsen, leading to unconsciousness and mental confusion, after which the illness would continue to deteriorate until the tragic end…

Therefore, if Shen Liang could be detained for two days, there would be no need to do anything; his condition would render him useless.

Nobody could pry any secrets from him.

But what some people did not anticipate was the strong stance of the Security Bureau, coupled with the presentation of the Detox Pill on Wu Jie’s side, which was almost miraculous.

Consequently.

Their wishful thinking was fruitless.

All infected patients were sent to Tianyuan Medical Center and placed under the Security Bureau’s control for quarantine and treatment.

By doing so.

Whether the new drug was effective, whether Shen Liang was dead or alive, whether he had admitted to anything… none of this was known.

Zheng only took orders from Elder Tan, and since some people hadn’t reached the top echelons yet, they naturally had no authority to command Zheng to hand over the prisoner.

However, their influence was not insignificant.

They managed to replace the person authorized to escort, allowing Kong Heng to arrive at Tianyuan.

Zheng was an “Old Sly,” so he definitely wouldn’t say anything.

That was why, two days earlier, after Kong Heng had completed the escort mission, he sought out Wu Jie alone to inquire about the state of Shen Liang’s health.

Was Kong Heng’s concern for Shen Liang’s condition really only because they were good brothers?

Was there no other interest at play between them?

If it was just pure brotherly love, why would certain people go to such great lengths to detain Shen Liang until illness led to his death?

Why bother to have Kong Heng replace someone else to escort secret documents to Tianyuan?

The ways of the world have deteriorated, and human hearts are no longer like the old days!

Wu Jie wasn’t born yesterday; how could he possibly be without his suspicions?

We are all adults, not three-year-old children; words and actions must certainly have a purpose.

The greater the cost, the more valuable the goal that someone is trying to achieve.

It’s obvious!

Some people didn’t really care about Shen Liang; what they cared about was what he had confessed to.

Torture for confessions, drug hallucinations, hypnotic inductions…

The interrogation methods of the Security Bureau were numerous.

Only a rapidly deteriorating and medication-resistant Shen Liang, eventually dying a miserable death, offered the safest outcome for certain individuals.

Otherwise, if some secrets couldn’t be kept hidden, it would be total ruin!

The reputation and glorious achievements of certain individuals would also be tarnished.

The fall of the Shen Family of Liuli City two years ago was the best warning!

Unfortunately…

The Security Bureau had heavily guarded Tianyuan Medical Center, making it impossible for anyone to glean information.

Those individuals had to think of other methods.

In another half hour, high-level representatives from various countries would arrive from Qicheng to secretly inspect Tianyuan Medical Center.

Especially ‘coincidentally,’ the Guard Bureau was responsible for the security task, and Kong Heng…

was among them.

So…

Wu Jie couldn’t help thinking.

If Kong Heng saw that Shen Liang was still alive, bouncing around energetically, and in high spirits, what would he do to this brother then?

Would he truly be happy that his brother hadn’t died?

Or would he wish he could kill Shen Liang instantly?

…

The hospital room was very quiet.

Wu Jie spoke no further.

Because with the conversation having reached this point, Shen Liang of course wasn’t stupid and should have realized that something bad was about to happen.

No smoke rises without a fire!

The doubts Wu Jie suddenly raised were no longer hints but explicit statements.

“I don’t want to see anyone!

Don’t let Kong Heng come to see me!

Don’t!” Shen Liang suddenly said agitatedly.

Feigning surprise, Wu Jie smiled and asked,

“Strange!

You were saying earlier how much you wanted to see your good brother!”

“If he’s a good brother, then you should indeed meet him, don’t you think?”

Shen Liang glared furiously, looking at Wu Jie with a venomous stare.

“What exactly do you want?

What does doing this mean to you?”

“You married a top-notch CEO wife and possess exceptional internet technology skills.

Why do you go to such lengths to investigate me?

What are you after?”

“Why live a carefree existence as a wealthy man if you’re not lacking money?

Do you have a love for power and aspire to become a high-ranking official?”

Wu Jie shook his head with a smile.

“You don’t need to worry about what I want to do.

As long as I’m in the Security Bureau, I’ll fulfill my duties loyally every day!”

“I advise you to come clean!

You’d take a knife for your brother, but he’s only thinking about stabbing you in the back!”

“If it wasn’t for the Security Bureau forcibly bringing you in for quarantine treatment, you would have died from the outbreak in Liuli City.”

“Just two days or even less than a day in detention, and your condition would have worsened, completely muddling your consciousness, making you useless for interrogation!”

“Why do you think they would do that?

Don’t you get it?”

Shen Liang’s angry stare at Wu Jie grew somewhat blurry.

His furious expression gradually solidified.

Wu Jie let out an awkward smile, stood up to open the bathroom door, and turned on the exhaust fan.

Upon returning, he took out two cigarettes from his pocket, lit them, and handed one to Shen Liang.

Shen Liang hesitated for a moment before greedily taking a deep drag with his uncuffed right hand.

Any old smoker understands.

Without a cigarette for half a day, you feel out of sorts.

It’s been more than a day or two since Shen Liang last smoked, so he obviously ‘revealed his true nature’ with this hard-to-come-by cigarette.

Clasping the cigarette, squinting through the smoke, his face was a picture of enjoyment.

The two men puffed clouds of smoke in silence.

It was like the quiet before a storm.

Wu Jie knew that at this moment, Shen Liang’s silence was better than talking.

Reacting defensively, lying, roaring like before…

it was all pointless.

At this moment.

Shen Liang’s silence, seemingly just focusing on enjoying his cigarette, surely meant a storm was brewing deep inside him.

He had once been the son of the powerful, knowing well that family could turn into foe in the face of sufficiently large interests, let alone brothers.

He had also experienced his family’s downfall and knew what it meant when things came to light; it wasn’t just the disaster of imprisonment.

To prevent the exposure of the truth, if it were him, he would also try everything possible to eliminate those who could easily spill the beans, just to be safe.

Because only the dead can’t talk.

…

The cigarette gradually burned down to the stub.

After taking a hard drag, Shen Liang crushed the butt in his palm.

“Am I cured now?” Shen Liang suddenly asked.

Wu Jie nodded slightly.

Shen Liang asked again, “Even AIDS is cured?

I feel as healthy as I was three years ago, full of energy!”

Wu Jie nodded again.

“Damn!”

Shen Liang clenched his teeth and shook his head repeatedly.

“That’s impressive!

So even AIDS can be dealt with?

Has our country started using cheats all of a sudden?”

In the midst of his exclamation, Shen Liang asked:

“I don’t understand the law much, but since AIDS can be cured, and I didn’t spread the mutant virus, how many years will I be sentenced?”

Wu Jie said with a smile, “Creating and leading a terrorist extremist organization, even though you failed to endanger public safety, you’re looking at a minimum of ten years!”

Shen Liang’s brows furrowed, hesitating for a moment.

“What if I cooperate with you and take down a big tiger?

That should count as a significant meritorious service, right?”

Wu Jie said with a smile, “Of course, there would be a reduction of sentence, you might even get a special pardon!”

With those words, Shen Liang’s spirits immediately soared.

“Holy shit!”

“Without AIDS, I wouldn’t be dying, would I!”

“If I resist and don’t cooperate, I’ll rot in prison for twenty years, and when I get out, I’ll be over forty.

What freaking use will I be then?”

“Besides, at any moment, I could be killed in prison, just to prevent leaks!”

“But if I cooperate with you guys…”

Shen Liang whispered to himself for a while, then suddenly looked up at Wu Jie.

“Can I get another cigarette?”

“Just wait!”

Wu Jie gave a faint smile and went to open the door.

“Zheng, give him a cigarette.

You two have a nice chat!”

Shen Liang’s gaze shifted away, obviously feeling a bit awkward in front of Zheng.

After all, he had been so arrogantly defiant before, and now…

Better to live a shitty life than die a decent one!

To save his own skin, what else could he care about?

Seeing that Wu Jie was about to leave the room, Shen Liang couldn’t hold back and shouted a warning:

“Don’t let Kong Heng come see me.

If he finds out I’m still alive, he might just blow this building to hell!”

Wu Jie was taken aback by the comment.

Blow up the building?

Damn, this is the Security Bureau, a strictly controlled medical center building.

What secrets did Shen Liang know that could drive the Kong Family of Liuli City to such madness?

Exchanging a glance with Zheng, Wu Jie nodded slightly and walked away.

Bang!

Zheng closed the door, took out the recorder he was carrying, and moved forward to offer Shen Liang a smoke.

Taking a deep drag, Shen Liang squinted, his thoughts drifting.

“Three years ago, I followed my father abroad to participate in a military exercise…”

…

Outside the sickroom.

Wu Jie asked the Anti-Chemical Soldiers to find some A4 paper and glue to cover the glass observation window of the door.

So that people passing through the corridor couldn’t see what was happening inside through the glass.

Meng Sihua was staying in the room opposite and was already well acquainted with Wu Jie, who decided to pay a visit.

Meng Sihua was surprisingly calm upon seeing Wu Jie.

Once a rich family’s son, now a detained suspect.

Mute as a fish, as if he had seen through life’s illusions, remaining silent and as reclusive as someone with autism.

After leaving the sickroom, Wu Jie went upstairs and stopped to look at Bai Fengling.

Though she didn’t have access to a cell phone or television, she was not a prisoner, so various newspapers, magazines, and books were provided.

The gentle morning light poured through the window.

It spilled over Bai Fengling’s exquisitely beautiful face, seeming to radiate with a sanctified glow.

Her features were as graceful as a painting, Qingya serene and tranquil.

She was holding a book, quietly savoring the read.

Although Detox Pills could detoxify and preserve beauty, making one’s appearance more radiant, the transformation of one’s aura had to come from within.

One’s inner culture and learning give off a natural elegance!

Having gone through this life and death ordeal, Bai Fengling had clearly completed her transformation and growth.

Certainly, this was how a national icon should appear.

Before long.

Kong Heng arrived with a large number of the inner guard, escorting the inspection team…
