Chapter 522: Lock Her Up First
Chapter 522 Lock Her Up First
"You’re spouting nonsense!"
Jiang Huaiyu didn’t believe it: "You said my father recruited those girls under the guise of employment to take them to the coastal city. If he were a human trafficker, how could he possibly expose his identity along the way, letting those girls know they’re being trafficked?
So, your claims are completely false. False!"
"Heh, your father is indeed quite cautious, but unfortunately, his accomplices couldn’t hold out!
As for why he exposed himself as a human trafficker on the road, and the fact that all the girls in the truck were abducted and prepared to be sold to nightclubs in the coastal city, you might need to get the statements of those girls to understand.
The things Jiang Haidong said and did, witnessed and heard by a truckload of abducted girls—do you think they would cover for him?
Jiang Huaiyu oh Jiang Huaiyu, are you so eager to white-wash your father’s name because you fear the stigma of being a human trafficker’s child? But while you’re preparing to clear your father’s human trafficker charges, how come you didn’t bother to learn more about what he has done?"
Jiang Huaiyu still wanted to speak when Vice County Magistrate Wen couldn’t hold back any longer, pointing at Director Shi: "You brought her here; now take her away!"
Seeing Vice County Magistrate Wen angry, Director Shi didn’t dare wait any longer, pulling Jiang Huaiyu along to leave.
Huaiyu still wanted to stay; after all, she had undergone training—Director Shi, a grown man, couldn’t manage to pull her away.
Mengyu frowned; this Jiang Huaiyu had actually practiced martial arts and was already a Level 1 Martial Artist. That was not good news.
Thinking about Lao San also being a Martial Artist, her martial arts skills were probably taught by him, right?
Moreover, Lao San knew the Youyou Disguise Skill, and so did this Jiang Huaiyu. It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes wanted to train Jiang Huaiyu to be a weapon against her, surely they wouldn’t let her go easily?
She walked over and patted Jiang Huaiyu on the shoulder: "Jiang Huaiyu, you should just go quietly. Otherwise, there are plenty of officers in the hall."
Jiang Huaiyu thought, what of the officers? She was a Level 1 Martial Artist!
But she soon realized that her strength was suddenly like a deflated ball, drained.
Her eyes widened as she looked at Jiang Mengyu. Could there have been an issue with that pat on her shoulder just now? However, she hadn’t heard that Jiang Mengyu possessed such high-level power.
Just as she tried to speak, she felt as if mountains weighed down on her body; she exhausted all her remaining strength just to ensure she wouldn’t kneel.
Seeing her still not moving, Mr. Lai quickly opened the door and signaled for two plainclothes officers, who then carried Jiang Huaiyu out.
"Lock her up first, deal with it after the drinks," Mr. Lai said.
Mengyu would have liked to applaud his decision, but seeing everyone had returned to their previous conversations, she had to let it go.
"Stubborn" saw Jiang Huaiyu being taken away by the police, so he sat back down. His goal wasn’t to help Jiang Huaiyu but to use her as a stepping stone for attending this banquet.
"Student Jiang, could you consider the matter that I just discussed with you?" Vice Town Chief Jing resumed the previous topic.
Yes, before Jiang Huaiyu arrived, Vice Town Chief Jing had been discussing the infrastructure development of Damiang Town with Mengyu.
Too bad Mengyu hadn’t agreed yet when Mr. Lai suggested drinking liquor, which then got interrupted by Jiang Huaiyu’s arrival, disrupting her "good deeds."
Mengyu had ten million in the fund within her space that could be used for charity. Naturally, she wouldn’t refuse matters like road construction and bridge building.
"Where do you plan to start and finish the road?" she inquired, thinking that the road from Xiayao Village to the town should also be repaired.
Vice Town Chief Jing hastily replied, "Uh, it’s from Jiangzhou Brigade Department to Damiang Town, then from Damiang Town to the county seat."
The plan was originally from the Damiang Town Government to the county seat, but knowing that Mengyu grew up in Xiayao Village under Jiangzhou Brigade, they added the stretch from Jiangzhou to the town on a whim.
Mengyu asked, "Is one hundred thousand enough?"
