804: Chapter 804: Entertainment to Death!

Undercurrents Surge!

“What’s this ‘kill without burying’ nonsense?”

Tan glanced at Wu Jie and said coldly,

“I’m talking to you about serious matters, do you think I’m joking?”

Wu Jie laughed and said, “You think too highly of me!

Don’t you know me by now?”

“I’m quite skilled at tricking and confronting people, but when it comes to investigating and arresting…

you should find Zheng for that!”

Tan’s brows furrowed slightly, and he lost himself in an astonished laugh,

“But just a moment ago, you said we should settle things sooner rather than later…

Sigh, alright, different strokes for different folks.

It’s really not your field to go after corrupt officials, you might as well stick to your Detox Pills and make a fortune!”

Tan had given up.

Sending Wu Jie to deal with the Kong Family of Liuli City would surely escalate the situation, given his nature.

To avoid causing a bad influence, it was better to arrange for someone else reliable.

As for Wu Jie, the ‘King of Tricksters’…

better think twice, so as not to dig one’s own grave.

Their casual conversation ended as their cigarettes ran out, and the two stood up to leave the meeting.

Upon stepping out, Wu Jie saw Kong Heng, who should have been patrolling and on guard, shooting over a suspicious, curious look.

The man was smart.

Before noon, Zheng had secretly reported to work…

And Tan had just now held a private conversation with Wu Jie…

Of course, Kong Heng grew suspicious.

Continuously speculating on what Wu Jie and Tan were secretly reporting…

Wondering where exactly was Shen Liang being held…

Whether Shen Liang was dead or alive, and whether he had confessed…

As the ancients said,

“He who stands straight doesn’t fear a crooked shadow.”

But if one really did commit a crime, one would undoubtedly be a thief with a guilty conscience.

Just like in the news reports on law and order, those apprehended or surrendering fugitives always say how restless their flight was.

Feeling guilty and scared at anyone giving them an extra look.

Daring not to walk the streets freely, not daring to interact with strangers, not daring to check into hotels or internet cafes…

Even hearing a siren or seeing a police car, they would think it was coming for them, feeling anxious all day long.

At this very moment,

Kong Heng was a classic example of a startled bird.

As Wu Jie and Tan came out laughing and talking, his eyes showed a mix of seven parts suspicion and three parts hostility.

By the car, Tan didn’t forget to pat Wu Jie on the shoulder before getting in, advising,

“Make sure to do the job you’re assigned!

And be extra careful about your safety!”

Wu Jie nodded, while from the corner of his eye noting Kong Heng’s slightly furrowed brow.

The suspicion in his eyes intensified.

He was surely mistaken, Tan was instructing to thoroughly investigate Shen Liang’s case, the need to do it well and to be careful about safety.

Thump!

As he closed the car door, Wu Jie’s gaze swept past Kong Heng, his lips twisting into a cold smile.

Seeing this, Kong Heng became even more panicked.

He wanted badly to rush over and pin Wu Jie down to demand the truth.

But by this time, the other guards were already getting into their cars, ready to leave.

After giving Wu Jie a meaningful glance, Kong Heng’s eyes were filled with unwillingness.

Shortly after,

The police cars started moving, protecting the convoy as it disappeared from sight.

Wu Jie took out a cigarette, lit it, and relished a good drag.

He heard footsteps behind him, but without turning back, he knew it must be Zheng.

“What did Elder Tan say?”

Zheng came up beside Wu Jie and asked curiously.

“He told me to focus on making money.

I shouldn’t worry too much about anything else!” Wu Jie passed a cigarette and asked with a laugh, “Did Elder Tan also tell you not to touch the Kong Family’s case?”

Zheng chuckled and said, “The Security Bureau can’t control them anyway.

As long as I can ensure that Shen Liang stays alive and well, that alone is a great achievement!”

Lighting a cigarette and taking a fierce drag, Zheng muttered to himself,

“I’m going to be very busy these next few days.

Whether or not I can fulfill my dream depends on this period!”

“Better to be safe than sorry!

Who knows if someone will be driven to desperate actions out of panic, causing all sorts of trouble!”

Wu Jie hesitated.

“To buy us more time, I think it’s necessary to reduce the supply of Detox Pills!

Otherwise, if the viral epidemic is cleared up too soon, how will they continue to depend on us?”

Zheng asked in surprise, “Aren’t you afraid of being cursed as cold-blooded and heartless, disregarding human life?”

Wu Jie let out a cold laugh.

“Why worry?

After all, it’s not us who are dying!”

Without another word, Zheng immediately gave a thumbs-up.

Wu Jie looked far into the distance.

The setting sun was like blood.

Countless brutal lessons had proven a point.

Enduring silently does not lead to endless possibilities, but to further encroachment.

Stepping back does not restore calm seas, but intensifies the storm.

Weakness and concession only embolden others to trample with impunity.

The ancestors have long said:

The kind are easy to bully, the gentle are easy to ride.

Only by showing true strength and determination will others treat you sincerely.

Wu Jie’s assertiveness has brought tremendous benefits for both the country and himself.

This is something Zheng admires from the bottom of his heart.

Driven by various news outlets, internet celebrities, and social media influencers.

Facing the most powerful representatives from 29 nations in drug negotiations, they would probably kneel before even starting.

Expect them to exhaust all resources and stop at nothing to seek benefits for the country?

Like Wu Jie, refuse to concede an inch and insist on the return of cultural relics during negotiations?

Show the same assertiveness as Wu Jie, insist on cash transactions, and bid high?

That’s simply impossible!

In his view, the recipe and technology for the Detox Pill, which can cure the virus, should be offered without charge to save all of humanity!

But…

what then?

After the flowers and applause, would they retrieve what rightfully belonged to them?

Would they gain their deserved benefits?

Others might thank you to your face but call you a fool behind your back.

It’s insanity not to make money when you can.

Similarly, pharmaceutical companies in powerful nations have drugs that can prevent or treat major diseases like leukemia, cancer, and hemophilia.

Then why haven’t they opened up their formulas and shared their patents?

Why not forgo profits for praise and accolades?

In conclusion.

Zheng admires Wu Jie from the bottom of his heart, for standing firm and remaining steady.

No matter who it is, they confront with might, adhere to their principles, and never bow or scrape.

But alas…

How many people truly know of Wu Jie’s efforts?

…

The setting sun dipped below the horizon.

Tianyuan International Airport experienced a one-hour air traffic control delay, preventing any commercial flights from taking off.

This was, of course, to free up enough airspace for the speedy departure of secret planes from various countries coming to purchase the drugs.

In the evening.

The Security Bureau received news that all the special flights for the foreign guests had safely left the airspace.

And everything was as Zheng had expected; the international situation was already surging undercurrents.

Yet there was no violent reaction from news media and internet sentiment.

Network Security Center.

Real-time monitoring of hot online events showed no breaking news.

The top trending topic was, of course, ‘Farewell, Bai Fengling’.

Millions of her fans initiated memorial activities, as it had been almost a week since her tearful farewell video following her infection diagnosis.

A week!!

There was no one infected with the Sakuragi Hana mutated virus who had lived beyond a week.

So, ranking at the top were the emotional farewells of several celebrity bigshots.

Best wishes for Bai Fengling’s journey, revisiting her many splendid works, commemorating her bright and beautiful youth…

Various tragic videos circulated online to an unstoppable extent.

Meanwhile, mainstream international media covered news on hoarding of supplies and regions littered with corpses…

By contrast.

Multiple departments issued announcements that agreements had been reached with several countries, and cultural artifacts that had been lost overseas would all be returned in the near future.

To increase credibility, some onsite photos and videos were even released.

For those in the cultural and artistic sectors, this should have been major news, but what was the outcome?

Furthermore.

Numerous military trains sped by, warships left ports, warplanes gathered, and troops assembled…

The largest military exercise in history was about to begin.

Whether it would escalate into war was unknown to anyone.

But what’s the use?

No better than the young celebrity He Yaoxi weeping as he recounted how Bai Fengling had cared for him on set.

Of course!

The general public’s indifference does not mean others will ignore it.

At eleven o’clock at night.

Before the auction began, just before the commencement of the exercises…

A message came from Perrio.

To ensure the success of the plan, they still had to agree to their five conditions…
