Chapter 645 The Real Killing Move
"I... I didn’t..."
Wei Pengcheng was caught off guard by the question, feeling bewildered. If Zhao Chuanchun had come to demand Huo Ben, this would definitely stir up trouble, but what he had never expected was that Zhao was actually looking for Lin Fan. Yet before he could defend himself, the door at his side was suddenly kicked open, and Lin Fan, his hands cuffed, his face bruised and swollen, tumbled to the ground.
"County Magistrate Zhao... save me..."
Lin Fan, looking haggard, lay there, his appearance drawing a wave of sighs from the onlookers.
Zhao Chuanchun rushed over immediately, quickly helping Lin Fan to his feet, "County Magistrate Lin, what happened to you?"
"That bastard tricked me into coming to assist with the investigation... but as soon as I walked in, he started beating me viciously..."
Lin Fan, looking up, turned to a panicked Wei Pengcheng and said, "He forced me to accuse you and Huo Ben of colluding with businesses and causing the death of County Magistrate Luan... I refused... and he started hitting me... He locked me up in a room... wouldn’t let me out, saying... as long as I don’t identify you for corruption and bribery... he’d kill me!"
"You’re spouting nonsense... when did I ever force you to say these things... if you keep making stuff up... do you believe I’d just shoot you!"
