Chapter 55: Taking the Fall for Everything
Tielong had shaken off all pursuit and reached a quiet spot by the riverside. The area was desolate, with no one around.
He knew that continuing to drive this car would only lead to eventual capture. Without hesitation, he pried open a car parked along the roadside, transferred the two large cash boxes containing six million yuan into the stolen car’s trunk, and then tossed away his SIM card.
From his pocket, he pulled out a keychain and selected one key, dismantling it to reveal more SIM cards hidden inside.
“Ring, ring!” His phone suddenly rang.
At a moment like this, anyone calling his hidden number couldn’t possibly be the police. Glancing at the caller ID, he sighed and answered.
"Tielong, Dad’s been arrested!" cried Dongmei, his wife and Old Ma’s daughter.
"I know," Tielong said gravely. "Someone set us up. I only realized what was happening when the sirens started blaring... Jin Ya and the suppliers wouldn’t have tipped off the police. There must be someone else behind this..."
Dongmei sobbed, "Everyone’s been caught! You’re the only one who got away."
