Chapter 329: Cleaning up.
Hui Zhenting closed his eyes and looked ahead. No matter what they asked, he would not crack. And he would deny all of his crimes as long as there was no concrete evidence presented before him.
For all he knew, the IA detectives were bluffing and even if they were not, he had a feeling that the direction of this matter had already been decided. If the Imperial command was involved, the Emperor was involved and if he was involved, the Jun’s were involved.
Thick as thieves that bunch!
They were also criminals, they just wrapped it up in nice crown, cushy titles, costly clean up crews that wiped their traces and piles of money. He would not give them the satisfaction of watching him break.
One of the suspected police officers suddenly leaped on the table, reaching for the gun that appeared to have been left around carelessly.
Suddenly, a gunshot rung in the room. As others drew their weapons or flinched, the officer reaching for the gun fell to the floor.
Behind, Chen Shanhe’s gun had smoking coming from the barrel. "I advice you all to think twice before thinking that you are faster than the Imperial soldiers in this room." He looked at Li Nianzu who had one short blade in her hand. "Or Detective Li Nianzu’s blades."
When they looked at the dead officer, there was a knife embedded in his forehead. It was hard to tell what had killed him first between the knife and the bullet.
Deputy Chief Superintendent Shi Jinjian slammed his hand on the table. "You Imperial soldiers are out of hand. How can you shoot someone in my presence?"
Chen Shanhe raised the medal which symbolized the Emperor’s authority. It was wielded by the Imperial Commander Jun Mingzhe but as he was not present, Shanhe was standing in for him. "I hold this medal which represents the Emperor so right now, you can all assume that the Emperor is standing here. A murderer reached for a gun in the room where the Emperor is sort of present. It is only right that he be executed immediately."
