929 His Highness Took Action
Baili Jia Jue glanced at his son before speaking with his faint voice, “You aren’t young anymore, why are you still playing with such childish things?”
The reapers, Child...childish? How could the Great Demon King use such a word to describe them? They are the reapers, the ghostbusters. They embodied power and arrogance!
Baili Shangxie remained cool, “I’m catching them for younger brother.”
Baili Jia Jue had no comments after knowing that these were for Qingchen. The reapers are indeed a practical toy for little demons given that they are indestructible.
The reapers almost shed a tear upon prying into the thoughts of the Great Demon King. So the reason they had been favored by the Little Demon Prince for so long was thar they could not be killed?!! Such a bully! All along they thought that Little Demon Prince valued them because of their beauty!
Noticing the face of both the reapers that got clouded, Baili Shangxie poked their heads with his small hand and commanded, “My brother wouldn’t like it. Smile.”
The reapers immediately forced themselves to smile like a blossom. Piercing teeth and ghastly pale faces, it made them look funny.
Baili Shangxie bent his waist and observed them for a moment. His tone was overbearing, “Forget it, keep your normal expression. Both of you look too ugly with a smile, it’s going to scare my brother off.”
The reapers were about to vomit blood! They regretted coming over to catch the dead souls. Sobs, we miss the netherworld. Although the Son of the King of Hell is a vicious person as well, he is obsessed with his wife. His life-long desire is to chase after his wife, leaving no time for him to prank on them. This Little Demon Prince is different. He has indeed treated them as Barbie dolls! Oh life, how could it be so tough!
All the way toward the press conference, Baili Shangxie was dragging the two reapers along, which as a plus, gave a good effect in clearing the way. As they arrived, everyone felt an inexplicable cold breeze. They could not figure out why the cozy hall had suddenly become colder.
Just when the reporters planned to stand up and go pour themselves a cup of hot water, they saw Liu Hongjiang coming over wearily along with his secretary.
“You guys must have waited for a long time.” Liu Hongjiang acted the same way as before, he sighed elegantly, “Fire away.”
The reporters certainly would not miss this opportunity. However, these were the same reporters who had come into contact with Liu Hongjiang before. They basically sided with Liu Hongjiang as they rained their questions on him, “What do you think of the online posts?”
“Being a part of the top management, these problems are inevitable for us. Malicious speculations will only push me to set higher standards for myself. In fact, from the beginning, I have defined this case as a human trafficking case. Yet, there was no suspect being arrested for trading at the scene. As there was insufficient evidence, I interrogated the suspect on the sidelines to prevent alerting the criminals.” Liu Hongjiang was obviously trying to speak for himself.
The reporters did not seem to notice, they asked again following Liu Hongjiang’s statement, “Do you mean that the real human trafficker is the female prisoner you have interrogated?”
“That’s right.” Liu Hongjiang looked toward the camera. He intentionally chose a live broadcast to regain control of the public opinion, “Most people on the internet do not have a clear understanding of the truth and judged me based on one short video. My child has indeed gone missing. When I was fighting against these lawless human traffickers, I had mentally prepared myself for the worst, but I did not expect their revenge to come so quickly. In order to force me to compromise, they have abducted my son and intended to use the internet to confuse the public by controlling the things that could be seen and heard. I am also a victim, I am more anxious than anyone else for losing my son. Nonetheless, I am aware that if I want to bring all of them to justice, I must bite the bullet and continue the investigation. This is all I can say for now.”
Liu Hongjiang’s remarks were passionate and touching. Some audiences in front of the television could not help but wonder if they were wrong. Perhaps they had misunderstood Liu Hongjiang, after all, the reputation of this Chief Secretary had always been excellent.
Now, he was suffering from reprisal for carrying out an investigation on the human traffickers. Not only did he lose his son, but his reputation had been greatly damaged by others.
Fortunately, they were able to learn the truth in time. Otherwise, there would be one less decent Chief Secretary who took care of the people’s welfare.
Some netizens had begun to speak for Liu Hongjiang, they started typing and leaving comments on the internet, “These human traffickers are so cunning!”
As of that moment, the ghostwriters hired by the secretary had made a certain impact.
They began to whitewash Liu Hongjiang, “Native of Yun City here. Those who are familiar with Chief Secretary Liu would know that he is an extremely approachable person. Everything he did was for the good of Yun City. I couldn’t believe he is being vilified for fighting crime.”
“We should be rational. We can’t let ourselves be played off by others especially in this period of time. Believe in the Chief Secretary, he will give us a satisfactory answer.”
“As soon as this incident came out, I knew that someone had deliberately slandered the Chief Secretary in order to get away with the crime. The Chief Secretary has always been rigorous, he loves and cares for his wife, thus he would never associate himself with anyone else. In fact, what’s worth questioning is the presence of the camera in the interrogation room. This is basically a plot designed by the human traffickers!”
More and more interview shots were being broadcasted at the same time with the live telecast. The reporters once again turned their microphones toward Liu Hongjiang, and spoke with total sincerity, “What a grievance, Chief Secretary.”
“There is no grievance. Now, I just want to get my son back and bring the culprit to justice. Who knows what kind of cruel treatment they are going to impose on my son.” Liu Hongjiang tilted his head over while speaking, he then closed his eyes tiredly as if he was trying to endure the pain of bereavement.
Got to say that his acting skill was amazing. No one saw the vicious look on his face as he turned his head away.
Wishing to eliminate him with only one short video? It was ridiculous!
It would be the end of that woman once the press conference was over!
Liu Hongjiang was pleased with his acting. Unknown to him, on the other side of the crowd, Baili Jia Jue was curling his lips. That smile was an indication that the game had just begun...
The secretary was still standing alongside Liu Hongjiang and supporting him, “The Chief Secretary hasn’t rested his eyes for all day and night because of this case. He needs a rest now. If there are no more questions from the reporters...”
Whoosh!
Before the secretary finished his words, the large screen in the hall started to glitch.
“Hello? The microphone is not working, what’s going on?” The secretary looked toward the person who was controlling the equipment.
Those people did not know what happened as well. The equipment was intact, but no sound could come out from it. After pausing for a second, images finally reappeared on the screen.
At the very moment the secretary was about to smile and continue what he was saying, he found out that the video on the screen had completely changed!
