It would be a lie to say you weren't afraid when a dark gun barrel was pointed at you.

But more than anything, there was disappointment and despair.

Wang Feng looked at Shi Yan, his eyes dim.

I still remember the first time we met. Shi Yan was fair and just, and his face, which was as hard as stone, left a deep impression on me.

"Iron-fisted and impartial" is the best way to describe him.

Perhaps it was from that moment that Wang Feng developed the dream of becoming a discipline inspection worker.

But now—

His dream was shattered by what he saw.

What iron-faced Yama? It's all an illusion.

Why?

Wang Feng spoke with difficulty, and Shi Yan, upon hearing this, glanced at him.

"There are some things that are not for you to interfere with. We have been lenient with you enough. We thought you would stop when the time was right, but we did not expect you to be so stubborn."

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng let out a bitter laugh.

"My question is, why kill Mayor Tang?"

Shi Yan's expression changed.

"You're the mastermind behind this, aren't you?"

Shi Yan's expression changed again.

"Wang Feng, you're going to die. You can ask him these questions yourself. You, and he, have taken away too many people's interests..."

Upon hearing Shi Yan's words, Wang Feng chuckled, seemingly resigned to his fate, and slowly closed his eyes.

Shi Yan stared at Wang Feng, but ultimately did not fire.

Qin Fei's shot had already pierced his heart; even without a follow-up shot, he would have certainly died.

"Wang Feng, in your next life, don't be so stubborn."

An opening in the rock.

"The officialdom, no, this world, is not just black and white; more often, it lies in the space between black and white. Sometimes, a single thought can make all the difference."

Shi Yan seemed to have thought of something and fell into a brief daze.

Once upon a time, he was just like Wang Feng, single-mindedly devoted to serving the people and vowing to catch all the corrupt officials in the world.

However, one person's strength is limited.

When everyone stands between black and white, you will look out of place.

At this point, you can only move forward better by integrating yourself into the situation!

"Does this justify such indifference towards life?"

Wang Feng opened his eyes again at some point.

His words were also extremely cold.

Shi Yan was stunned. He stared at Wang Feng for a long time before his expression changed drastically.

"You...you're not hurt?"

This time, it was Shi Yan's turn to be shocked.

Answer my question.

Wang Feng slowly stood up, staring into Shi Yan's eyes, his gaze revealing a sharp light that was completely different from before.

He patted the car body, and a person got out of the car.

Zhao Zihua.

He held a camera in his hand, having already recorded everything that had just happened.

"You, you all..."

Shi Yan's expression changed drastically, and he moved his gun back and forth between the two men.

"Shi Yan, Team Leader Shi, I really didn't expect that everything Qin Fei did was instigated by you. It's really beyond my expectations."

Wang Feng's words made Shi Yan break out in a fine sweat.

He stared at Wang Feng, his eyes flickering, his composure from before completely gone.

"Wang Feng, don't push me!"

Shi Yan roared.

"Forcing you?"

"What good will forcing you do?"

"Will you kill both of us?"

"I can tell you with certainty that this is a camera connected to the internet, and everything just now was broadcast live."

Wang Feng's words struck Shi Yan like a thunderbolt.

He looked at Wang Feng, trembling, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"We can die, but at least we can gain honor. What about you?"

"From now on, you'll bear the stigma of being universally reviled. Have you thought about your wife? Have you thought about your children who are about to grow up?"

"How will he ever face anyone after doing this!"

Wang Feng's loud shout startled Shi Yan, who trembled. Zhao Zihua, who was standing nearby, had a sudden thought.

If he hadn't been holding a camera, he was confident he could have disarmed Shi Yan before Shi Yan could react.

"Let it go, it's not too late to turn back now."

Wang Feng looked at Shi Yan and spoke softly.

"lay down?"

Shi Yan chuckled, and Zhao Zihua, who was standing nearby, heard this and silently placed the camera on the roof of the car.

"At this point, do you think I can still let go?"

"He's dead! I killed him!"

Shi Yan suddenly roared, his face instantly turning ferocious and terrifying.

"Wang Feng, I underestimated you..."

Shi Yan smiled wryly, his hand holding the gun kept moving, making Xu Chu and the others watching on the screen jump in fright.

If Shi Yan really fired the shot, every single one of them present would be punished.

"You were too careless."

Wang Feng spoke, leaving Shi Yan puzzled once again.

careless?

"Actually, you didn't need to say that last sentence during the day at all. If you hadn't said it, I wouldn't have thought much of it, but you did anyway..."

Shi Yan didn't understand.

I was just trying to be helpful, how did I end up being wrong?

Was the reminder wrong?

"How could someone who truly wants to turn themselves in have any thoughts of resistance? Yet you've been implying in your words that Qin Fei might take action..."

"This only proves that Qin Fei did not truly surrender; he wanted to kill me."

"Kill me, and no one will know he killed Xiang Tianlei. He can just make up a reason, and who will suspect a lie?"

"Even if it really happened, the power of interpretation rests entirely with him. As long as he insists I was killed by someone else, what can the outside world do even if they don't believe him?"

Wang Feng glanced at Shi Yan and continued.

"Am I right, Team Leader Shi?"

Shi Yan was stunned.

Although he knew Wang Feng was smart, to be able to guess the general idea from just one sentence was an overstatement.

He looked at Wang Feng, completely speechless, or rather, he no longer knew what to say.

Now, he only has two paths to choose from.

1. Go down a path to the bitter end!

II. Surrender!

His hand holding the gun trembled as he stared at Wang Feng, his eyes bloodshot.

Wang Feng glanced at him, then took out his phone and dialed Zhou Hongyu's number.

"Hello, Wang Feng?"

Upon hearing Zhou Hongyu's voice, Wang Feng handed the phone to Shi Yan.

"Have you figured out how to explain this to Madam?"

Shi Yan was taken aback.

He looked at the phone Wang Feng handed him, but hesitated to reach out.

"Is it an egg?"

Zhou Hongyu's voice came again, and Shi Yan instantly collapsed.

She squatted down on the ground and started crying like a child.

Zhou Hongyu is his cousin.

Tang Mingde is his cousin's husband.

The other party had helped him a lot when they were alive, but now he doesn't even think about avenging them; instead, he's blinded by greed...

"Sister, I'm so sorry!"

"Egg, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"

Upon hearing Shi Yan speak, Zhou Hongyu immediately raised her voice, and her words made Shi Yan feel extremely guilty.

At that moment, he felt like he wasn't even human!

Wang Feng gave Zhao Zihua a wink, and Zhao Zihua immediately stepped forward and restrained Shi Yan.

Seeing this, not only Wang Feng, but also Xu Chu and the others behind the screen breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, no major disaster occurred!
