Chapter 621: They Are Not Ordinary People
Inside the solemn and dignified Kuncheng Government Conference Hall, the atmosphere was tense and dignified. Several dedicated staff members were staring intently at their computer screens, their fingers twirling across the keyboards, constantly receiving real-time dynamic information from various external tasks.
These information are like invisible threads that closely connect the entire situation, and every subtle change is related to the overall direction.
At this moment, a press conference video from Cedric, leader of the Winston business family in Los Angeles, USA, suddenly popped up on the big screen.
Seeing this, the secretary raised his hand and skillfully picked up the remote control, pressed it lightly, and the video content instantly appeared in front of everyone.
The atmosphere at the press conference was lively and boisterous. Reporters from all over the world raised their flashlights and cameras.
Like a group of hunters eager to capture precious moments, all the cameras focused on Cedric's powerful figure.
Cedric, wearing a finely tailored suit, looked sincere and solemn. He leaned forward slightly, facing the camera, and said in a steady and powerful voice:
"Hello, friends from all over the world! I am Cedric. I am holding this international press conference here today.
I would like to emphasize in particular that the Winston family and I have always maintained a friendly and respectful attitude towards our international friends.
I believe everyone has seen the international wanted poster recently. The actions of the illegal trader Al Robuk have caused extremely serious damage to many companies, government agencies and regions.
Likewise, our Winston Enterprises was not spared and was coveted by Al Robock.
In recent days, Interpol has joined forces with various parties to launch an operation to capture him, but no substantial results have been achieved so far."
At this point, Cedric paused slightly, took a deep breath, and continued: “My son Andreas is young and energetic, and his heart is full of justice.
When faced with an outlaw like Al Robuk, out of righteous indignation, he resolutely shot him to death on the high seas.
Here, as a law-respecting citizen, I am fully aware that this action violates the rights granted by laws and regulations to a certain extent.
Therefore, I solemnly declare here before all my international friends and judicial authorities: Andreas, the leader of my family,
His actions were driven solely by justice and he had no intention of disrespecting or provoking any country.
If we need to bear the corresponding punishment and responsibility for this incident, my Winston family will accept it."
Li Yanshan watched Cedric's speech on the big screen quietly, secretly admiring his actions and execution.
After the press conference, Li Yanshan quickly and methodically prepared the corresponding penalty documents and written materials in accordance with relevant laws and regulations and international standards.
He carefully considered every clause and every detail to ensure that they were fair, reasonable and in compliance with regulations.
After finishing all this, Li Yanshan raised his hand and looked at his watch. The hour hand had quietly passed a long time scale.
At this time, the secretary who had been waiting beside him said with concern: "Secretary Li, you have been in charge of the command for three days and three nights. I am afraid your body cannot bear it.
Let's go to the temporary guest room and rest for a while! I will closely monitor the subsequent work to ensure that there are no mistakes. "
Li Yanshan pinched his eyebrows tiredly, and indeed felt the sleepiness coming in waves like the tide, almost drowning him.
He waved his hands helplessly and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Come on, I'm going to take a nap. Remember to wake me up on time in an hour.
There is still a lot of work to be done, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart."
The secretary nodded quickly and said respectfully, "Okay, please come this way. Otherwise, I'll ask the doctor to come over and diagnose you."
After saying that, Li Yanshan stood up and slowly walked out of the conference table. He waved his hand and said, "No, no, just take a rest!"
When his eyes inadvertently swept to the side, what he saw was Mu Xiaoji lying unconscious in the handcuffed chair.
Mu Xiaoji's face was as pale as paper, without any blood, his brows were tightly knitted together, as if he was in great pain, and one hand was pressed weakly on his abdomen.
Li Yanshan's expression instantly darkened, and he sternly shouted at the guards on both sides, "What's wrong with him?"
The two guards were startled by the sudden questioning and looked nervously at the motionless Mu Xiaoji.
He stammered, "No, I don't know, Chief. He was fine when he was brought in."
Li Yanshan raised his voice angrily and shouted, "What are you still standing there for? Send him to the hospital immediately! If anything goes wrong, none of you can bear the consequences!"
"Yes, Commander!" The two guards suddenly woke up and quickly opened the handcuffs. Then, several more officers came over, their movements swift and steady.
They all lifted Mu Xiaoji and ran quickly towards the door of the conference hall. The hurried footsteps echoed in the empty hall, as if telling of the urgency of the situation.
Just as everyone was carrying Mu Xiaoji to the steps at the gate, a dark shadow approached quickly like a gust of wind in the night.
That was Andreas's sports car, like a night elf, drawing a graceful arc on the street.
Then came a gorgeous and precise drift, with the tires making a sharp sound as they rubbed against the ground, and in an instant, it stopped steadily at the door of the government department.
The car door opened quickly, and Andreas rushed out of the car like a black lightning.
He was wearing a well-tailored black suit, the corners of his clothes rustling in the night breeze.
Behind him, the bodyguards were well-trained and followed him at the fastest speed, instantly forming a tight protective barrier. They stuck closely to Andreas and scanned the surroundings vigilantly.
When Andreas's eyes caught sight of a group of police officers carrying a person hurriedly running out of the government hall,
His heart suddenly tightened, and his feet moved towards them involuntarily as if out of control.
Their steps were hurried and frantic, their usual calm demeanor completely gone. As soon as they approached, Andreas, overcome with emotion, blocked everyone's path.
With trembling hands, he gently lifted up Mu Xiaoji's bloodless face, his eyes full of fear and heartache, his voice trembling slightly with anxiety.
He shouted loudly: "Dear Mu, what's going on with you? What did you do to him? Why are you putting these damn handcuffs on him?"
His eyes seemed to be burning with flames of anger as he stared at the police officers around him.
Upon seeing this, one of the police officers immediately responded in fluent and professional English: “I’m sorry, Mr. Andreas.
His current physical condition is unknown and is in critical condition. He needs to be sent to the hospital for treatment immediately.
Please clear the passage and don't delay the best treatment time." The words were concise and clear, but with an unquestionable seriousness.
Andreas finally woke up from his dream and apologized hurriedly, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. He's already very fragile, so you have to act quickly!"
After saying that, he quickly moved aside to make way, his eyes closely following the crowd, watching them lift Mu Xiaoji into a police car in a well-trained manner.
The moment the car door closed, Andreas quickly turned around and ordered the bodyguards behind him: "Let's go, get in the car, we're going to the hospital immediately!"
The voice was firm and resolute, as if at this moment, the only thing the whole world cared about was Mu Xiaoji's safety.
In that luxurious sea view villa, soft lights cast a shadow on the spacious living room.
Tian Dayong, Cheng Jianpeng and Liang Boyu were sitting on a comfortable sofa. After they heard the news that Mu Xiaoji was being chased and killed in the shopping mall at the door of Zhou Li's house in the suburbs,
Every day I feel like I am stuck on this sofa, and in my free time I watch the news on TV in the living room.
At this time, the TV screen was broadcasting a press conference held by reporters Yao Xinyue and Ming Ye.
The press conference was arranged in a simple and professional manner, with spotlights flashing non-stop. Many media reporters were holding recording equipment and cameras in the audience.
All eyes were focused on the two reporters on the stage, as well as the head of the procuratorate, the chief of police inspection, and leaders such as Xing Zhongxing of the public security detachment.
Yao Xinyue and Ming Ye were dressed in smart professional attire, with serious and focused expressions, and were methodically clarifying to the public the true inside story of the source of the virus infection inside the prison.
Tian Dayong picked up the teacup, took a sip of the tea, and couldn't help but sigh: "My God, just the prison live experiment alone is enough to make people complain!
Look at it now, how come it's just like Aunt Wang's foot binding, getting longer and longer?" He said, shaking his head helplessly, his face full of surprise and worry.
Liang Boyu also took a sip of water, his eyes fixed on the TV news, and said solemnly:
"The scope of responsibility involved in this prison live experiment is extremely broad. It's not something we can just dismiss as a simple matter of curing the prisoners and controlling the spread of the virus.
From the planning and implementation of the experiment to the subsequent impact on the officials involved, the interests and responsibilities involved are intricate and complex.
I'm afraid it will take an in-depth investigation and rigorous accountability to get to the bottom of this." As he spoke, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes, as if he had already foreseen the subsequent complications of this matter.
Cheng Jianpeng gently put down the teacup in his hand and looked around. The huge villa seemed extremely quiet, and the only sound was the news broadcast coming from the TV.
He couldn't help but say, "In such a big family, it seems like we three are the ones with the least time, right? Everyone else is busy with their own things." There was a hint of self-mockery in his words.
Tian Dayong frowned slightly and asked, "Ke Laiweiler went to the hospital to see his cousin this morning. It's almost dawn now, why hasn't he come back yet? Did something happen?"
There was a hint of worry in his eyes, and his fingers tapped unconsciously on the armrest of the sofa.
Cheng Jianpeng leaned back on the sofa and said with emotion, "They are not ordinary people. They are all elusive.
The three of us should just wait for Mr. Mu's news! As long as he tells us when to return to City G, we'll just follow his instructions.
Mr. Mu has always been calm and far-sighted in his work. It's no mistake for us to follow him." After saying this, he sighed softly and looked up at the ceiling, as if waiting for an important moment to arrive.
