Chapter 277 Take Them down One by One
Deng Yue was not scared. Just as she was about to retort mockingly, her cell phone rang.
“Hello, Director.” Deng Yue’s tone changed.
A Miao took a look at Ling Lang, who blinked her eyes.
“Okay… I know.” Deng Yue hung up the phone with a dark face, and then looked at Shen Xinglan with resentment. “Director Shen, you better pray that I can’t find any evidence, or I will arrest you and take you back to the police station!”
Shen Xinglan stood up. He was much taller than Deng Yue. He looked down at her and said, “Not just anyone can enter my house. This is your first time, and it will also be your last.”
“Hmph!” Deng Yue turned and left. Shen I had opened the door already and sent her out without squinting.
A Miao felt that this female police officer was really baffling. “We have not offended her, have we?”
“She hates the rich.” Ling Lang was cleaning the two little children’s mouths while they were gnawing apples. “We both graduated from the police academy, but when we were assigned, I was chosen and she was refused.”
A Miao curiosity asked, “What happened next? How did she become your colleague?”
“Her father was also a policeman, so later she was assigned to City Y. But a few years ago, her father was killed in a hit-and-run case. The suspect was a rich second-generation guy…”
Ling Lang paused for a while before continuing, “We went to the funeral. She was in bad shape.”
“I understand.” A Miao was also very sad. “So we are the scapegoats.”
“Yeah.” Ling Lang thought about it. “But I really don’t know when she was transferred to City S.”
A Miao sighed. “If you did not secretly send a text message to your boss, she would be more embarrassed today.”
“Next time, just ignore her.” Shen Xinglan shot a glance at Ling Lang.
Ling Lang smiled and said, “Of course, I am not stupid.”
She could help Deng Yue once for the sake of being her colleague, but only this time. Moreover, according to her understanding of Deng Yue, Deng Yue would think she was helping Shen Xinglan instead of her.
“She should be taught a lesson, or she will die even worse in the future.” Le Yi patted Ling Lang’s hand. “Okay, let’s go eat!”
Deng Yue was indeed complaining about Ling Lang. She rushed back to the police station and went to the director’s office.
“All the evidence points to Shen Xinglan. Why can’t I have him arrested?”
The director was a middle-aged man. Deng Yue’s mother had begged him to take care of her, otherwise he really didn’t want such a stubborn subordinate.
“Deng Yue, where is your so-called evidence? As long as you can show me one piece, I will allow you to arrest him.”
“Only he has the motive.” Deng Yue stared at him. “And he is rich. He could hire others to do it without getting his hands dirty.”
The director sighed. “So you have no evidence at all and it is your own imagination.”
“My imagination?” Deng Yue forced a hollow smile. “Director, is it because he has money that we can’t arrest him?”
“No one should be arrested without evidence.” The director’s face became dark. “That’s all. I have already handed it over to another team. You can move on to the next case.”
Deng Yue smacked the table angrily. “I was wondering why the seniors stopped me when I went to find Shen Xinglan. Now I see…”
“Deng Yue, watch your mouth.” The director also hit the table. “If you don’t want to work here, go back to your original unit. I don’t want people here who have no brains!”
“Director!”
“Enough, get out.”
Deng Yue rushed out of the police station in frustration and anger. She hated the world so much, and she hated those people who could remain at large.
“I will find evidence, and I will make Shen Xinglan pay for what he has done!”
“Officer?” Unknowingly, she was surrounded by several reporters.
Deng Yue adjusted her mood. “Do you need something?”
“I just heard you say that you want to make Shen Xinglan pay. Were you talking about Director Shen of the Shen Corp?”
“Do you know anyone else named Shen Xinglan?” Deng Yue didn’t want to talk to these reporters, who could only mess things up. But suddenly, an idea came into her mind. “Since the director doesn’t want me to follow the case, then I can make it public and put pressure on the director!”
“Do you mean that those who are missing were really kidnapped by Director Shen?”
“He is the only one who has a motive.” Deng Yue told the truth. “But we have not found any evidence yet.”
The reporters looked at each other. “So, you think Director Shen is very likely the one who is behind this?”
“Of course.” Deng Yue did not pay attention to the trap in the reporter’s words but immediately answered, “We will continue to look for evidence and find the victims.”
The news was broadcast the next morning, and Shen Xinglan started to get angry when they were having breakfast.
“She’s looking for death…” He turned off the television. “Shen I, call the governor’s office, and send a lawyer’s letter to Deng Yue.”
A Miao was even angrier. “How did this woman graduate from the police academy? How could she talk nonsense to reporters without any evidence? Is she insane?”
“Are you insane??”
The director shouted directly in Deng Yue’s face.
“Did I say something wrong?” Deng Yue didn’t feel that she was wrong. She retorted confidently, “I didn’t say he did it, I just said that he had a motive.”
