Chapter 470: Chapter 470: Zi Yumo Makes a Strong Move!

Vice County Magistrate of Jiang City, Party Secretary of Qingshan Town, internet celebrity Xu Qianli committed a major rape offense in Jiang City, causing a major uproar online. Ji Yunxi learned about it immediately.

She was deeply worried about Xu Qianli’s trouble and hurriedly went to her father Ji Qingyun, asking him to find a way to save Xu Qianli.

Ji Qingyun remained composed and said to Ji Yunxi, "How do you know your Big Black Bull brother isn’t that kind of person? How can you be so sure he didn’t do such a thing?"

"I know, I certainly know!"

"Big Black Bull brother has so many beautiful women around him, and he has me too. How could he possibly lack women or need to commit rape to get women?"

"Anyway, I don’t believe Big Black Bull brother did it. There must be some misunderstanding, dad. You have to save him no matter what!"

Ji Yunxi had absolute confidence in Xu Qianli, he was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.

Yes, Big Black Bull brother is also a man, and men have their impulses, but even then, couldn’t Big Black Bull brother come to me? How could he possibly assault those two female university students and rape them?

Ji Qingyun looked at his precious daughter and shook his head slightly, "You, oh you, I think you have been poisoned by Xu Qianli. It seems you are completely fallen into his hands for life."

Ji Yunxi clung to Ji Qingyun’s arm and shook it, "Dad, say what you want. Anyway, I think Big Black Bull brother is innocent. He has been framed. You must help him!"

"Help, how can I help?"

"He raped two female university students in Jiang City, forcing one to jump off a building and the other to cut her wrist. From what has been gathered, it indeed appears he did it."

"Luckily, the building was not high, just three stories. The woman who fell only got injured, and the woman who cut her wrist survived. Otherwise, his guilt would have been tremendous!"

"Yunxi, I understand you have a good relationship with him, but you have to be reasonable. You can’t just say it’s a misunderstanding or he was framed without clear investigation. Everything must be based on evidence."

"Alright, you don’t need to say more. I have my principles. If it truly wasn’t Xu Qianli who did it, I assure you he won’t have any problems."

"But if it was him, if he violently raped two female university students, causing both to attempt suicide, given such egregious nature, it wouldn’t matter if he and you have a good relationship or even if he were my own son. I would not condone it!"

Ji Qingyun gave a definitive answer. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to help Xu Qianli; rather, the nature of the case was too egregious. If he blatantly helped, it could very well jeopardize his own political future.

What he needed to do now was to wait, wait for the preliminary investigation results to come out before making any plans.

Seeing Ji Qingyun unwilling to help, Ji Yunxi was very angry but helpless. She could only hope that Xu Qianli wasn’t the perpetrator.

In Jiang City, the Public Security Bureau was already surrounded by reporters from all over, all eager to get first-hand information about the case for reporting.

If not for the police holding them back, they would have swarmed in already.

Yao Qiang and several other university students were currently inside the bureau, with the police taking their statements and investigating the case.

Lan Qianrong arrived at the hospital to learn about the condition of the two female college students.

Shen Miao had slit her wrists, fortunately she was brought in for medical treatment in time. After transfusion and stitching up of her wounds, she was already out of danger.

While the injury on her hands was manageable, what was below was a ghastly sight, a laceration that kept bleeding unstoppably without any swelling subsiding to allow for surgery, hence only conservative treatment was possible.

She was currently receiving an IV in the ward, accompanied by two nurses to prevent her from committing any more foolish acts.

Fang Ting had fallen into a deep coma, with multiple fractures and soft tissue damage across her body as well as internal injuries. She was currently undergoing surgery and would not be out anytime soon.

Lan Qianrong had someone wait outside while she entered Shen Miao’s ward, identified herself and the purpose of her visit, and after offering her condolences, she immediately started inquiring about the incident, trying to understand what exactly happened. Was Xu Qianli truly guilty of assaulting her?

When Shen Miao was asked this, she cried out in misery and then started to tell her story, crying that she had been violently raped by Xu Qianli and pleading with Lan Qianrong to bring him to justice and give her the justice she deserved.

Upon finding out that Xu Qianli had indeed violently raped Shen Miao and Fang Ting, Lan Qianrong was very angry, muttering to herself how she had been terribly mistaken to trust that scoundrel Xu Qianli.

Not long after, an investigative team dispatched jointly by the city committee and city government arrived in Jiang City to take over the investigation of the case in full.

At this moment, someone stood up at the entrance of the County Public Security Bureau and strongly blocked the investigative team from the city. Zi Yumo had made her stand.

She had previously been in Qingshan Town, investigating a major case where Zhao Tianhao and seven others were murdered. Learning that Xu Qianli had committed a crime, she immediately came to Jiang City and timely blocked the investigative team dispatched from the city.

The investigative team from the city, led by City Discipline Inspection Committee Secretary Nan Li and City Public Security Bureau Chief Xing Daoyuan, was keen to take over the case but was stopped right at the entrance of the County Public Security Bureau by Zi Yumo, causing them to instantly become furious.

Nan Li was slightly calmer, but Xing Daoyuan pointed at Zi Yumo and yelled, "Zi Yumo, although you have already been appointed as Jiang City Public Security Bureau Chief, you’re just a county bureau chief at the end of the day. What right do you have to stop the city’s investigative team from investigating this case? Step aside! If you continue to obstruct our investigation, be careful, I’ll take you down too! Obstructing superior authorities from handling a case, you can’t bear the responsibility!"

Zi Yumo coldly retorted, "Director Xing, don’t get it wrong. I am not yet the Jiang City Public Security Bureau Chief. My current position is still as a provincial police officer. The nature of this case is too heinous; it must be taken over by the Provincial Department. Just as Director Xing, you just mentioned, obstructing superior authorities in handling a case, you can’t bear the responsibility!"

Zi Yumo slammed a heavy responsibility on Xing Daoyuan’s shoulders, leaving him momentarily at a loss for words.

He had even tried to use the authority of city-level leaders to suppress Zi Yumo, but he ended up being suppressed instead.

At this moment, Nan Li spoke up, "Officer Zi, it’s true you belong to the Provincial Department, but this matter occurred in Zhongzhou City, and the person involved is a deputy division-level official. Logically, our Disciplinary Committee should intervene and investigate first."

Zi Yumo replied, "You are right, but the people from the Provincial Disciplinary Committee haven’t arrived yet, so our Provincial Department’s staff can only investigate first. As for you, don’t worry about it. Just wait outside for news. Once the investigation of the case is clear, I will inform you immediately."

With those words, Zi Yumo took her team and moved into the County Public Security Bureau, taking over the case.

Xing Daoyuan and Nan Li were furious but helpless, after all, Zi Yumo truly came from the provincial level.

With no choice, they could only report back to the city’s leaders and wait for further instructions on the next steps.

Meanwhile, Zi Yumo briefly met with Wu Kai to get an overall understanding of the case proceedings and the current investigation before going to find Xu Qianli.

Inside a detention room laid out with a cool mat, Xu Qianli was soundly asleep on the mat.
