At 11:30 AM, amid deafening applause, the annual Yangtze River Delta Regional Economic Symposium at the Dong hai International Conference Center came to a close, with prominent figures such as Guan Yi and Ye Wenhao leading the departure from the venue.

With his mind no longer on the symposium, Guan Yi was the first to exit the venue and quickly entered the reception room next to it.

Upon entering the reception room, Guan Yi’s curiosity reached its peak, prompting him to immediately take out his phone and call Xing Feng.

The phone took a full ten seconds to connect before Xing Feng’s voice came through, sounding quite unfriendly, ”Secretary Guan, is the meeting over?”

”Hmm, it just ended.”

Guan Yi tried hard to control his emotions, making his voice sound as calm as possible, ”After the meeting started, I received a text from Director Luo, telling me that you personally went to Dong hai Hospital to take away two eyewitnesses from the scene, and withdrew two members from the Yanhuang Organization in charge of the meeting’s security. Elder Xing, has there been a new development in the case?”

”New development is not exactly the term, but the case has become clear,” Xing Feng said indifferently.

”Oh?” Guan Yi’s expression shifted slightly as he quickly asked, ”What do you mean?”

”The two eyewitnesses I took have regained consciousness and have recorded statements for this case.”

Xing Feng said calmly, ”According to the testimonies of the two eyewitnesses, the murder victim Situ Haotian and Hongwu Sect elder Huang Qi, in collusion with other core members of the Hongwu Sect, plotted a coup, killed Situ Chen, and used Situ Chen and Situ Ruoshui to lure Ye Fan to the scene, attempting to injure Ye Fan and frame him for everything.”

”Ye Fan fought back at the brink of death, using the rules of legitimate defense to kill both Situ Haotian and Huang Qi. Lv Canghai, the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch representative, secretly colluded with Situ Haotian and, accompanied by two of his trusted subordinates, attempted to assassinate Ye Fan to silence him while he agreed to cooperate with the investigation. They were stopped by Ye Wenhao, who arrived in time—regarding this point, the two members of the Yanhuang Organization East Sea Branch have confessed without reservation!”

”Hmm~”

Upon hearing Xing Feng’s words and although Guan Yi did not understand why the two eyewitnesses, who had become vegetative, suddenly awakened, he realized that the direction of the case had changed drastically and that the Bai Family’s carefully planned conspiracy had crumbled on its own.

At the same time as he understood this, a sense of unease began to emerge in Guan Yi’s heart.

After the unease, Guan Yi steadied himself and said, ”Elder Xing, as far as I know, all the eyewitnesses at the scene were injured, lost consciousness, and became vegetative. You said that the two eyewitnesses have regained consciousness and have testified for this case. I personally think that, first and foremost, we should confirm whether their consciousness has indeed completely recovered before we can accept their testimonies.”

”Secretary Guan need not worry about that. My men had them examined before they recorded their statements. Not only have they fully regained consciousness, but their mental states are good, completely meeting the standards of normal people,” Xing Feng said with a hint of mockery.

”Secretary Guan, the real circumstances of the case differ greatly from what we decided in our meeting. Do you think we should have another meeting to settle the case before reporting it, or should I report it directly from my side?” Xing Feng asked sarcastically.

”Let’s discuss it at a meeting and then report it,” Guan Yi replied weakly, feeling a bitterness in his mouth.

Although he knew that if the case was settled in the meeting according to the latest findings of the Yanhuang Organization, it would not only clear Ye Wenhao and Ye Fan’s names, proving that they had done nothing illegal or out of regulation, but it would also earn Ye Wenhao points in the minds of the bigwigs above—the case was clarified by the Yanhuang Organization’s own investigations, and Ye Wenhao had never intervened in the case illegally or out of regulation because his son had been framed!
