Looking at the pile of "evidence" on the table, Gu Feng felt a chill run down his spine.

If my fingerprints are found on these items, I'm afraid I'll be unable to clear my name of the charge of "attempted coercion."

The question is, will these clothes, buttons, and underwear really have your fingerprints on them?

Gu Feng had absolutely no idea what to expect. He had indeed hugged and kissed her last night, and then been electrocuted.

Who knows what tricks that woman played after that?

With witnesses and physical evidence laid out before him, Gu Feng had long seen through Chu Hanliang, his cheap apprentice, even though the case was being handled by Chu Hanliang. On the surface, Chu Hanliang was obedient, but in reality, he had principles and a bottom line in his actions.

I already saw it from Li Xiaolan's incident; he couldn't possibly side with me without any principles.

Besides, looking at him now, with that utterly awful expression, he doesn't seem to have any intention of helping at all.

Am I really going to be taken away on charges of "attempted coercion"? Could I be that unlucky?

The fox didn't get any food, but instead got itself into trouble? Thinking of this, Gu Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Hmm, so these are the clothes that were torn last night?" Chu Hanliang examined the items on the table.

"Hey." Mayu nodded, a hint of smugness in her eyes as she looked at Gu Feng.

"Looks like this whole thing really got out of hand last night," Chu Hanliang remarked.

Mayumoto mumbled a string of words. Qin Shousheng quickly translated: "Yes, I demand that you severely punish this evil deed, seek justice for us, and restore our innocence!"

"Well, we have both witnesses and physical evidence. It seems I have no choice but to take this person back and open a case for investigation." Chu Hanliang said, glancing at Gu Feng.

Gu Feng glared at him fiercely, his eyes filled with not only anger but also heartache.

What does it mean to betray one's master and ancestors? I'd never seen it in ancient times, but I've finally witnessed it today.

Just when Gu Feng thought all hope was lost, Chu Hanliang suddenly asked Mayu Benyi again: "Mr. Mayu Benyi, before we formally file a case, I would like to ask you to reconsider."

"·¥%#!" Mayumoto shook his head decisively. This sentence doesn't need translation; everyone understands it.

Chu Hanliang waved his hand to interrupt him: "Hey, Mr. Mayumoto, don't rush to answer. Anyway, I don't understand Japanese, so just pretend you didn't say anything. Let me show you a video that a kind citizen sent over, and then you can make a decision."

Upon hearing this, both Gu Feng and Mayu Benyi were taken aback. However, while Mayu Benyi remained completely bewildered, Gu Feng immediately understood. The mention of videos suddenly reminded him of someone—a woman with a peculiar fetish.

This woman not only loves to stalk people, but she also loves to take photos without their consent.

A subordinate handed him a memory card. Chu Hanliang took it, put it in his phone, pressed a few buttons, and handed it to Mayumoto.

Just as the other party reached out to take it, and several of his men came over, Chu Hanliang withdrew his hand: "Hey, Mr. Mayumoto, I only said it was for you to see, not for them. And my personal suggestion is that it's best if you see this by yourself."

After saying that, he handed over the phone without waiting for the other party's reply.

Mayumoto took the phone, glared at Qin Shousheng and his men, and then walked to the side to look at it.

The video started playing quickly. In the video, car headlights were pointing directly at a pavilion, where a woman in a white dress was holding a stun gun that was flashing blue light, with a smug smile on her face.

Lying in front of her was a man who appeared to be unconscious...

Upon seeing this, Mayumoto's expression changed; he could no longer bear to look.

He stood there, clutching his phone, stunned. He already knew the rest of the story from Cai Zi.

"Mr. Mayumoto, is there anything you'd like to say now?" Chu Hanliang asked in a calm tone.

Mayumoto's face alternated between black and white, his hand gripping his phone as if he wanted to smash it to the ground.

"Mr. Mayumoto, you don't want to talk? Fine, that's fine too. Have you finished watching the video? Give it back to me now. But... it's okay if you don't return it, a broken phone isn't worth much. As for the SIM card, the station has plenty of backups." Chu Hanliang said unhurriedly.

Ma Youben handed the phone back expressionlessly, then turned and shouted something at Qin Shousheng and the others. Before they could even understand what was going on, he had already turned to leave.

"Huh? Mr. Mayumoto, you're leaving already?" Chu Hanliang's tone remained calm, but his previously amiable face suddenly darkened, and he slammed his hand on the table. "Did I say you could leave?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of footsteps sounded, and several policemen immediately blocked the doorway.

Mayumoto's men immediately rushed forward, rubbing their hands together, ready to fight at any moment.

Upon seeing this, several police officers, without Chu Hanliang's instructions, immediately drew their guns and pointed them at them.

"!@#$%!" Mayumoto shouted, and the several men who were about to draw their swords were stunned for a moment, then responded in unison, "Hey!" and then stepped aside and stood with their heads down.

Mayumoto then turned around and looked at Chu Hanliang expressionlessly.

"I apologize, Mr. Mayumoto, my subordinates were a bit rude, please forgive them." Chu Hanliang resumed his amiable demeanor. But only a second later, his face darkened again. "Mr. Mayumoto, you've seen the video, and we've seen it too. We didn't see any indication that Mr. Gu Feng assaulted Ms. Mayu. On the contrary, we witnessed Ms. Mayu abusing Gu Feng, stripping him of his clothes, tying him to a pillar, and even driving away in his car..."

"!@#$!@#$" Mayu interrupted him, saying in Japanese, her voice noticeably lower than before.

"What do you want?" Qin Shousheng translated. Sure enough, the master was hesitant, and the dog followed suit, losing its confidence.

"Mr. Mayumoto, I'm truly sorry, but I'm just doing my job. The person you're asking isn't me, but Mr. Kou, who was falsely accused and robbed by Mayuko. If he's willing to overlook your slander and say it was just a joke between classmates, then we can pretend nothing happened. But if he insists on pursuing this, then I'm even more sorry. I have no choice but to ask you all to go back to the station for a thorough investigation. Oh, and your niece too, you'll have to take her back as well."

Chu Hanliang finished speaking slowly, his tone calm yet exuding an undeniable authority.

Gu Feng couldn't help but laugh.

He had never seen such a promising apprentice before.

That was a brilliant move; even his mentor was quite pleased.

Mayumoto's expression changed drastically, filled with anger and resentment.

Although the evidence was indeed flawed, he considered himself the true victim.

Now the plaintiff is going to become the defendant, how can he swallow this insult?

But after weighing the pros and cons, he was helpless. After struggling internally, he could only say the same Japanese phrase as before, but this time he looked at Gu Feng.

Without a doubt, everyone knows that he was asking: What exactly do you want?

Everyone understands the principle of being forgiving when possible.

However, Gu Feng had no intention of sparing insidious and despicable people like Mayumoto and Mayuko.

He immediately wanted Chu Hanliang to open a case and investigate him, turning himself from a defendant into a plaintiff.

But when the words were on the tip of his tongue, he hesitated.

He couldn't help but think of the task the queen bee had given him.

Although he was extremely reluctant to carry out this damned mission, he couldn't help but think of Ding Hanhan.

Besides, if this matter were to be investigated thoroughly, my own past wouldn't be so clean either.
