Chapter 427 Li Xuezai’s Dilemma
Jiang Shengyu's words verified Chen Daojun's conjecture.

"So why target him? Does this guy want to establish his own power, or is he coveting the relationship with Shunyang Group?"

"Be loyal to Shunyang? Do you think it's possible?"

"It's not Shunyang, it's Chairman Chen's two sons. They wrote my shares into a contract. I signed it, but Director Li refused."

"It is said that Lee Hak-jae has been in charge of the dirty business of dealing with Blue House and other senior officials. Why do Chen Rongji and the others think they can easily suppress him?

Chen Daojun shook his head.

It seems that Jiang Shengyu still doesn't understand one thing. From the moment Chen Yangzhe passed away, Li Xuezai lost most of his power.

"Then if no one rescues him, won't he be doomed? Damaging the reputation of the group, embezzling public funds or bribing can be punished with life imprisonment. Especially being able to be tied to members of the National Assembly is like killing two birds with one stone. With the general election coming soon, Li Xuezai is very likely to It became a tinderbox that would have sensational consequences if prosecutors took up this matter."

Jiang Shengyu rolled his eyes, thinking that no matter what Li Xuezai did, it had nothing to do with him. "Hey! What if Li Xuezai refuses to sit back and wait for death? Will he seize the dirt on Shunyang Group and threaten Chen Rongji to die together?"

"No, the only stain that Li Xuezai can grasp is my grandfather's, not Shunyang's. But my grandfather has passed away, and no big shot will tarnish the honor of my deceased grandfather."

Jiang Shengyu was surprised by Chen Daojun's calm tone and slowly frowned.

"Then what do you think? Have you warned Li Xuezai and told him who the prosecutor is targeting, or do you want me to reveal the information privately?
"No, you have to pretend you don't know about it."

"Ok?"

"Leave him alone, the prosecutor will push Li Xuezai to the cliff. Of course, it would be better if I could push him off the cliff myself."

Chen Daojun didn't care at all whether Li Xuezai was alive or dead.

Jiang Shengyu's eyes shone.

"I'm not going to abandon him, because I want to create an atmosphere... and weave a dramatic good time to appear again. Do you have any ideas to match the show?"

"Of course, the prosecutor was able to bite Li Xuezai because his background disappeared, but if you want, we can always become his new backer when he is desperate."

"BAT company?"

Jiang Shengyu opened his mouth wide.

"Hey...this bastard has been very sinister in the past few months."

"Protect the BAT Group, make people feel grateful to themselves, and become a sharp spear to attack the two uncles. Isn't Li Xuezai an excellent chess piece?"

"You are really vicious. You clearly know that he is a person who is about to fall into the swamp, but you just stand by and watch, haha."

Daojun, you have to be more ruthless!
Chen Daojun thought of Chen Yangzhe's confession, and his heart became harder and harder.

"We are still far away. There may be more powerful enemies at any time in the future. We must become stronger and stronger. Now this society is becoming more and more like the barbaric era of the jungle. If you are not careful, you will be humiliated? I We must quickly practice our internal skills so that grandpa can feel at ease under Jiuquan. Unless Li Xuezai is really running out of gas, we can quickly lend a helping hand."

Jiang Shengyu sighed heavily and looked at Dojun with worry in his eyes.

"I think there's still something wrong with this?"

"My two uncles are very anxious, so the chaos will end soon. Otherwise, let's go and see if Li Xuezai is willing to serve as the chairman of BAT Group."

……

"Director Zhang, what's going on? You asked me to come over. What's the matter?"

"How have you been lately? Isn't it appropriate for me to come visit you during President Chen's funeral?"

"Of course it doesn't matter. Many senior officials came to express their condolences. I didn't even see the prosecutor general, haha."

Li Xuezai laughed happily, but stopped immediately.

Because Director Zhang’s expression was very unusual.

It looked like he was nervous, or it could be said that he kept looking around, as if he was afraid of being seen.

"Hey, what's up? You look weird, if you have financial problems"

"Of course that's not the case, Chief Li. I don't want money. If I just want money, how can I contact the chief first? And you have taken care of me since I was a prosecutor. I can never repay you." It’s kindness.”

Director Zhang waved his hand quickly.

"Then?" Li Xuezai looked at him quietly.

"I'm sorry, but...the Justice Hotline members of the Central District Attorney's Office are now on the move."

"Justice B?"

"Yes, everyone knows that the prosecutors sent by the Ministry of Justice have the highest winning rate. That's why their prosecutors can start handling cases anywhere."

"This time the prosecutor general and the criminal planning section chief are on the front line. They mobilized the district attorney's office and sharpened their knives..."

"Core moves."

"Yes."

Li Xuezai narrowed his eyes: "What is the goal? Who do you want to sacrifice?"

"Our goal is...is..."

Seeing him lowering his head and saying nothing, Li Xuezai's heart sank.

"I?"

Seeing that the other party nodded very obediently.

Li Xuezai's fingertips also began to tremble slightly.

Thinking of Li Xuezai's support to him, Director Zhang felt even deeper.

"I'm sorry, but I have to tell you this is just because my position is too low. It's really..."

"No, thank you for coming and informing me in advance, but are you sure? Is Legal Affairs B going to arrest me?"

"Yes, a university senior from the Ministry of Justice contacted me because this is a secret order. It does not report to the senior officials of the Southern Prosecutor's Office, but directly to the Central Legal Department."

This is the truth straight from the mouth of the appointee.

What do you mean?
Various thoughts were swirling in Li Xuezai's mind.

Are the victims of the impeachment of Bureau Z related to him?

Now, Li Xuezai needs to find out who is trying to mess with him first, not why.

"Do you know who gave this order?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't know about this until today. Since the establishment of the Legal Affairs and Inspection Bureau, the highest-ranking person I can know now is probably the director of the Inspection Bureau. Is it the prosecutor who plans to touch you?"

"Absolutely not."

Li Xuezai thought to himself. "Only Minister of Justice B or the Chief Prosecutor can target me, the number two person in Shunyang."

"No need to tell me you're sorry, thank you anyway."

Li Xuezai stood up quickly.

He must quickly find the sword pointed at him and the hand on the hilt.

As soon as he broke up with the other party, Li Xuezai picked up the phone.

"Gather in the conference room right now... You can't come to the office, come outside. Do you know Gwanghwamun Japanese Restaurant? Meet there in 10 minutes."

Li Xuezai climbed into the private car and yelled at the driver.

"Go to Gwanghwamun, we have to arrive in 30 minutes."

"Ok."

Lee Hak-jae's car rushed from Seocho-dong to Gwanghwamun.

When Li Xuezai opened the door of the Japanese restaurant and walked in, the owner came out to greet him warmly.

"Welcome, Director Li."

"Are the kids here?"

"Yes, come here..."

When Li Xuezai walked quickly into the private room, his eyes were completely dark.

Only three people were waiting for Li Xuanzai quietly.

"Let's sit down first."

When they sat quietly on the chairs, Li Xuezai took a sip of cold water.

"What about the other kids? Did they not come because they didn't know? Or did they know but didn't come?"

"We talked about it once, but..."

"Forget it, look at me..."

Indeed, Li Xuezai felt very sad at this moment.

Unconsciously, he sighed silently.

He understands.

He always thought that he was a member of the privileged class and his subordinates held huge power, but after all, he was just a part-time worker.

Every month, you have to obey the instructions of the paying master, and you have to be careful.

Now, the people doing the payroll have changed.

Chen Rongji and Chen Dongji are their masters.

It has been some time since Li Xuezai moved away from here.

When he made a call but only three people came, Li Xuezai realized that he was now lonely.

"Office Chief…"

Looking at Li Xuezai with a miserable look on his face, the three men hesitated to speak.

"You bastards! Could it be that you are sympathizing with me?"

"Oh shit!"

Li Xuezai stood up cursing.

"I'm not scolding those who weren't there. They made wise choices, but you are stupid. I'm not your boss anymore, so you don't have to come here in the future."

Li Xuezai opened his wallet and placed a check for 100 million won on the table.

"Go buy some food, let's go."

Li Xuezai walked out without looking at the eyes that were watching him.

The night wind was still biting.

"Fuck...fuck, fuck!"

Li Xuezai's voice carried far in the wind...

The guys following him looked at each other, and a guy with a dark face boldly stepped forward:

"Rumors are now circulating that prosecutors have obtained enough evidence to issue a warrant."

"Chief, I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do. The guy who's taking action now is the core of the prosecution. As long as they give an order, someone will take action without hesitation.

"Why don't you go abroad for a while? Maybe they came to check you because of the election, so please come back after the election. This will take at least three months."

Li Xuezai dragged his tired body into the car.

"go home."

Not long after the car started moving, the driver kept glancing in the rearview mirror.

Li Xuezai was originally in a bad mood, but seeing him like this made him even more irritated.

"Hey, what are you doing? Why do you keep staring at me?"

"Ah, that's not it. There was a car that bothered me a few days ago. It seemed to be following us."

"track?"

Li Xuezai turned his head and looked behind him, but he couldn't tell which one it was among the cars crowded on the road.

"They really are!"

Li Xuezai took out his mobile phone. He had been enduring it, but there was nothing he could do.

The situation is critical and could escalate into an all-out war, and now is the time to strike at the other side.

Li Xuezai hesitated for a moment, then dialed the number.

When the ringtone was about to end, the other party answered the phone.

"Oh, sir."

"Minister, I'm sorry I skipped the pleasantries, but it's really urgent now."

"What's wrong? Yes, Chief, you must have experienced a lot of physical and mental pain during the funeral."

"It seems you know everything. I won't talk for too long. Please stop and listen to me!"

"What do I know?"

"If you really don't know, it means you are not from the prosecutor general. Wait until I finish, and you will understand what I am talking about."

"Prosecutor?" The other party's tone gradually changed from doubtful to calm! "If I get caught and open my mouth, the trouble may be bigger than impeachment. If you can afford it..."

Li Xuezai, who hung up the phone first, gritted his teeth.

Regardless of whether this threat was useful or not, he threw it out in one breath!

However, the guy who struck him reacted before him.

The location is of course in front of Li Xuanzai's home.

"Mr. Li Xuezai, I'm sorry for disturbing you late at night."

There were two men in suits and a man in a sweater standing at the door.

Li Xuezai was full of doubts.

Legal Affairs B's actions were so fast that it was completely unexpected.

"Where did you come from?"

"We are from the Financial Investigation Division of the Zhi Procuratorate."

"Did your minister send you here?"

"Director Lee, I have only seen your face on TV. Prosecutors like us only follow the minister's instructions."

"Are your companions randomly matched?"

The two prosecutors grinned and said:
"You know, I'm not going to say anything, just come with us."

It is impossible for Chief of Legal Affairs B not to know that as a member of the Shunyang Group, Li Xuezai cannot be taken away quietly.

And Li Xuezai wanted to know this.

"What if I refuse to go with you?"

"Haha, there is a judge with an arrest warrant on standby. If Mr. Li enters the house now, there will be a search warrant and the house will be searched. You are a decent person, you shouldn't do such a thing, right? "

Someone else added: "An arrest warrant is being prepared, and a photographer is also on standby at the prosecutor's office."

Staring at the two grassroots prosecutors, Li Xuezai took a breath and slowly opened his mouth.

"If I can finish before midnight, I can go home early."

"I promise you."

"You must keep your word or you will see the bank accounts linked to the Attorney General's slush fund splashed across tomorrow's newspaper headlines."

Attorney General's Fund!
The impact of these words made the bodies of the two prosecutors become as stiff as ice.

Soon, they lowered their heads and pretended not to hear anything.

"What are you still doing? Get on the road. I have to finish before midnight. I want to go home."

Li Xuezai sneered and scolded the prosecutor like a subordinate.

……

Sitting in the interrogation room of Z Procuratorate, Li Xuezai drank a glass of water and waited for a while.

Be patient, wait, and calm down!
It's a simple trick, but it always works wonders.

Especially when people don't know why they are being sucked into the whirlpool, the tension is unbearable.

He came here just to hear Legal Affairs B's reasons, but he was sitting alone, and as time passed by, he couldn't help but become a little nervous.

The man who opened the interrogation room door looked very familiar to Li Xuezai.

"Hello, Director Li."

"Are you...? Have I seen you?
"You're just an unknown person. I met you when I had dinner with my former boss T. I said hello, but not to the extent that Director Li remembered you."

The business card he handed over read "Crime Planning Section of the Prosecutor's Office of the Ministry of Justice."

"Procuratorate? You used to be from the Supervision Bureau, but now you are transferred to the Procuratorate?"

"It's not a specific department, there are actually many divisions."

Li Xuezai smiled self-deprecatingly: "Has my status reached this low level?"

"Didn't you say that you will be an ordinary person after you go out? When do you want to get home?"

The word home carries a heavy weight.

"Obviously, Chairman Chen's sons have all acquiesced or agreed to this matter of yours."

"Since Shunyang Group is not a charity, there is no reason to take care of the old, weak, sick and disabled. If you are asking about the inside story of Shunyang Group, then don't ask, because I don't know anything."

"Then tell me what you know."

The chief of the planning department put some documents on the table.

"A penthouse in Hong Kong in the name of a child, a 15-story building in Seattle, USA, a winery outside France... This is the first time I know about this. I think a winery means something similar to a wine storage refrigerator. Anyway, this is It’s just known wealth, if you dig deeper, your overseas accounts will pour out, right?”

Li Xuezai rolled his eyes: "Let's wait until it comes out. And if you buy a property overseas, you still have to pay inheritance tax... Is there anything else?"

"It's not just the inheritance tax. The money was siphoned off through overseas companies in Shunyang. There are also issues with the Foreign Exchange Management Law and embezzlement of public funds. You know how to evade the law, so you should also know that such an amount is in Han." It’s a serious crime, right?”

Li Xuezai retorted: "If you want to put me in the prosecutor's office photo album, then go ahead. Do your superiors know what I want to say to the photojournalist? Reporters are more interested in my mouth than overseas properties. That’s what I said, right?”

The other person shrugged exaggeratedly.

"Director Li, you are so damn bad. I know you will not make it public no matter what. After all, once you say it, you will be hurt. That is not only burying the grave for Shunyang Group, but also for the deceased." President Chen’s burial grave.”

Li Xuezai chuckled: "Don't overestimate my bottom line. Regardless of whether this is a joke or not, you can try it..."

The two threatened each other and revealed each other's trump cards...

"Now that you've pissed me off, is it time to tell me what you really want?"

Just as the head of the planning department was scratching his head and hesitating, the door opened and a middle-aged man walked in.

"The interrogation is over, go home, Director Li."

Li Xuezai raised his head, with a faint smile on his face:

"Finally I saw the face of the boss behind the scenes."

The middle-aged man shook the dust from his hair and turned back: "Boss? This is a word used by gangs. I don't like it very much."

"It took you so long... is it because you don't care about me? Or is it that all my money was given away?"

"Let's get the facts straight. Chief, you didn't give me any money. It was the courier who gave me the money."

The prosecutor general said without hesitation that he took money from the chaebol.

But no one has seen it directly, and there is no proof.

Now Li Xuezai knew who was dealing with him.

"I forgot, it turns out those guys can hurt and control the delivery people as they please."

Li Xuezai jumped up as soon as he saw the prosecutor general's appearance and said to the chief of the planning department who was motionless.

"When I gave him money, he didn't even dare to raise his head in front of me. Oh, this happened here once three years ago."

"do not talk."

The Inspector General's expression was distorted, and Li Xuezai even started laughing loudly.

"Anyway, I dusted off the cigarette ashes in that friend's water glass. I was about to toast to him, but he suddenly raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. Do you know what I'm saying? You're dirty. It’s dirty from the inside out!”

"Office Chief!"

The prosecutor-general screamed and tried to gag Li Xuezai, but to no avail.

"I'll be grateful for anything the Lord gives me, you must be thinking at the time, hahaha."

After gritting his teeth, the prosecutor-general glared at Li Xuezai and his expression softened.

"So, if you don't want to be treated like this again, then go home. There's no point in just venting now?"

Li Xuezai said what he had been holding back for a long time.

"Is it because of the president that I am in this situation?"

"They don't want you back."

"That's the whole reason, but they misunderstood. I'm retired."

"So do you agree? Let yourself become an old dog that listens to its master, and then shake its head and tail to welcome the new master?"

Li Xuezai looked at his watch and stood up.

"I have to leave now so I can get home before 12 o'clock."

The Inspector General calmly blocked the door.

"I need to get an answer."

Li Xuezai said with a smile.

"That friend of mine has too many delusions. You just need to know that in this matter, you are just an errand boy. Even if I look like a lost dog, I can lay you off with just one phone call. Go away!"

The prosecutor-general, startled by these words, quietly retreated.

When Li Xuezai disappeared, the two people left in the interrogation room sighed.

"Shall we go too? I think I've done my job."

"Is this enough?"

The head of the criminal case team said with an anxious look.

"Share all the data we obtained with the H City Senior Prosecutor's Office and hand it over to the prosecutor of the Southern Prosecutor's Office. It was the kid who said that we are now the holders of the memorandum, and that is enough."

The prosecutor general patted the planning section chief on the back.

"Let's go too. Would you like a bowl of hangover soup?"

……

"Dongji, if I go further, I will lose my loyalty to the president, and this is my answer."

When he saw Vice President Chen Dongji early in the morning, Li Xuezai threw him a thick paper bag.

"I haven't heard from you for a long time, Li Xuezai. By the way, you just called me by my name."

"Now that I'm no longer the head of the department, I can naturally call you by your first name. Why, can't you?"

"Of course, it's okay with our relationship. We are good brothers who have known each other for many years."

Chen Dongji smiled broadly, but even if it was true, Li Xuezai knew it was fake.

Who is your brother?

Li Xuezai complained in his heart.

"I came to you to see your brother. At least in Shunyang, I think you are at a level where you can have a conversation."

"Oh? Conversation? Isn't it just yelling at my eldest brother?"

After replying casually, Chen Dongji opened the envelope thrown by Li Xuezai and began to confirm the contents.

After watching for a while, Chen Dongji frowned. Li Xuezai looked at Chen Dongji's expression, a faint light flashed in his eyes, and said slowly:
"You lost your loyalty to the president a long time ago. You collected all these things one by one. It seems that you are ready to stab the president in the back at any time, right?"

Li Xuezai spread his hands: "Well, I can't help it. I have gone to court twice and was forced. What I mean is that my children are all very big. I don't want these ignorant children to suffer." Seeing their father go to court.”

Sons of chaebols like Chen Dongji often travel to and from the prosecutor's office. Many of them stand in court and hear frequent acquittal verdicts.

However, Chen Dongji was jailed twice, and he was not given a suspended sentence.

Chen Dongji looked at the document, still frowning, and shook his head.

"I don't trust my father. It's impossible for me to fly into a flame."

Chen Dongji raised his eyebrows and said slowly:

"I can't just give up, or accept it calmly. I stood up twice before. This is because no one can replace me. If there is no substitute, my father will send me again, and I can only do this. "

Chen Dongji relaxed his expression and put the document back into the envelope.

"Don't get me wrong, do you think your father didn't let you take over Shunyang because he was afraid of these data?
"I've already taken the blame twice. I don't want to be used as cannon fodder. My dad is the kind of person who won't blink easily even if he has a truckload of these things."

"What do you mean?"

"My father's heart is colder than ice. I can only save myself."

After speaking, Chen Dongji handed the envelope containing the documents to Li Xuezai.

"What do you think would happen if I gave this to the police or prosecutors? Or posted it in all the media."

"If you finish reading the content, I think you won't be able to say it so easily?"

"I naturally look at me for illegal gifts, tax evasion, insider trading... This is like a nuclear bomb. Once it is exposed, the media will swarm it like dogs that smell a bad smell."

Li Xuezai knew why Chen Dongji was so bold and not afraid of these things being exposed.

Even if the media makes a fuss, it will only take a month at most. In a month, Shunyang Group can just find some hot spots to calm down the noisy world, and the worst is no more than that.
