Chapter 653 Is This the End?

After a few days.

Oriental capital port.

The Nanuo port on the shore is almost full of people.

Except for some staff who maintain order, there are media reporters.

They scrambled over each other and came early, for fear that they would come late and not be able to squeeze into a good seat.

As for what made them so excited, it was naturally because the hijacked Oriental Star cruise ship was expected to return to the Oriental Capital today.

After all, the 15-day holiday was not completely finished, and it ended only halfway through.

"Look, that's the Oriental Star!"

"It's coming, it's coming, it's finally here!"

The reporters on the shore, like sharks smelling blood in the sea, all became excited.

This time, the return speed of the cruise ship was very fast, almost at full speed, and it took less than two days to return to the place where the dream started.

With a loud bang, the cruise ship docked, and the approach bridge erected on the shore followed the trend, and the cabin door opened accordingly.

"Look, it's Chairman Zhang!"

The first person to come out of the hatch was Zhang Tianlong, the mayor of Dongfangdu.

His appearance caused everyone on the shore to exclaim.

As soon as Zhang Tianlong walked down the stairs, he was surrounded by countless media, and an unknown number of microphones were handed to his mouth.

"Everyone, I know what you want to ask. The sea voyage this time was really beyond my Zhang's expectations. I didn't expect that there would be pirates!"

As Zhang Tianlong said, there was still a trace of "undecided" panic on his face.

But soon, he calmed down: "Of course, here I have to thank the soldiers of the special operations team. They saved me, all the hostages, and the Oriental Star!"

Afterwards, Zhang Tianlong beckoned behind him.

Among the members of the special operations team who escorted the hostages off the ship, one person walked down quickly.

"Let me introduce to you, this is my son Zhang Youlin, and he is also the person in charge of this rescue operation. It was under his command that the special operations team successfully rescued all of us from the pirates! "

Immediately, countless media began to take photos, recording the scene of Zhang Tianlong thanking his son.

"Let's applaud our heroes!"

With Zhang Tianlong yelling loudly, everyone on the scene applauded.

Even many of the hostages, who were under control from beginning to end, applauded without knowing what was going on.

They were controlled by the pirates from the beginning, and they were in the banquet hall from the beginning to the end. Naturally, they didn't know what happened. They really thought that the special operations team forced the pirates back and saved them all.

On board, the wounded and tourists came down one after another.

"Hurry up, help me, he was shot, the wound has only been treated briefly, send it to the hospital for treatment!"

Soon, several bodyguards in black carried a stretcher and escorted a wounded person down.

"By the way, here I would also like to thank the procurator Hou Liangliang, who stepped forward to protect the hostages under the threat of several pirates!"

Zhang Tianlong gestured towards the stretcher, and Hou Liangliang who was lifted was instantly surrounded by reporters.

"Give way, the injured need to be sent to the hospital for treatment!"

"Wait, let me say something!"

The bodyguards were still shouting, but Hou Liangliang, whose injuries had stabilized, raised his hand at this moment to signal the bodyguards not to leave.

In an instant, countless microphones were handed over.

"Prosecutor waiting, I heard that you are the son of the Chief Prosecutor of the District Prosecutor's Headquarters, you really are like a father without a son!"

"Prosecutor Hou Liangliang, may I ask if you were afraid when you came forward?"

"Prosecutor Hou, the hostage you rescued must be very grateful to you at this moment. What do you want to say to the audience in front of the TV?"

Hou Liangliang's face was pale at the moment, but he still lifted his spirits and said, "I did this out of justice!"

Just such a sentence, as well as the scene where he endured the injury and pain and still answered the question, were filmed by countless reporters.

"Let us applaud the heroes again!"

Under countless applause, Hou Liangliang was also sent away.

Afterwards, the tourists on the boat came down one after another, and without exception, they would be surrounded by the media.

"They're all liars!"

Among the interviewing crowd, an angry reprimand attracted everyone's attention.

Who would speak like this for the rest of his life after the catastrophe?

"Prosecutor Xiao Baihe, may I ask why you said that?"

It turned out to be Xiao Baihe. When she faced the media, she finally couldn't suppress the anger in her heart and broke out on the spot.

But at this moment, the crowd automatically released a path.

Zhang Tianlong is here.

"Xiao Baihe, right? I know the relationship between you and Zhang Wei, but I didn't expect you to have such a close relationship!"

Zhang Tianlong looked at the girl in front of him with a half-smile, and then explained to the surroundings: "Everyone, you may not know that this time the pirate hijacking incident, the instigator is Zhang Wei!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Everyone couldn't believe that Zhang Wei had the audacity to hijack the Oriental Star.

"Of course, he is just one of the masterminds, and after the hijacking plan failed, he evacuated with the pirates, and his whereabouts are still unknown!"

"Nonsense, Zhang Wei is already dead, he was let down by you..."

"Prosecutor Xiao Baihe, you have been used by Zhang Wei. In fact, you have been bewitched by Zhang Wei, but please recognize the reality. Zhang Wei is one of the masterminds of the hijacking incident!"

Zhang Tianlong said, and pulled his son over.

"Yes, according to the intelligence of the special operations team, Zhang Wei and Duanmu Heizu were the masterminds and accomplices of this hijacking operation. One of them was killed, and the other's whereabouts are unknown!"

Zhang Youlin's answer was naturally prepared in advance, and directly charged Zhang Wei with the crime of accomplice and mastermind.

"You fart!"

Seeing this, Xiao Baihe endured the grief in his heart and argued hard.

It's a pity that the reporters at the moment seemed to have a tacit understanding, and they didn't care much about anything she said, and no one even interviewed her.

"They, why are they like this!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Baihe finally couldn't control her tears and cried completely.

"Save your energy, it's useless!"

At this moment, several girls appeared beside Xiao Baihe.

They all covered their bodies with black blankets, only their faces were exposed, and they watched everything on the port coldly.

Zhao Xiaoxiao, Jessica, Mo Yuzhu and Xia Qianyue.

"Hanhan, why don't you stand up?" Xiao Baihe looked at them.

"I said it's useless, so what if you stand up, don't you see, these people are arranged by Zhang Tianlong in advance!"

Zhao Xiaoxiao pouted and pointed at these media reporters with a disdainful tone.

But Jessica, Mo Yuzhu and Xia Qianyue all remained silent.

"Zhuzhu, Zhuzhu, you are here, we are so worried about you!"

At this moment, Mo Juren and Yang Chunyuan also got off the boat and found Mo Yuzhu.

They breathed a sigh of relief, but then found that their daughter seemed a little different from usual.

"Xiaoxiao!"

Not far away, there was also a familiar voice.

Zhao Qingyan also came.

"Xiaoxiao, you..."

Zhao Xiaoxiao didn't respond.

"Zhang Wei, is it true..."

Hearing the word "Zhang Wei", the eyes of the girls, including Zhao Xiaoxiao, dimmed.

"I see, let's go, I'll take you back!"

Zhao Qingyan pointed to the luxury extended shuttle bus parked not far away, and signaled Xia Qianyue and others to get on the bus.

"younger sister!"

Behind Xia Qianyue, Xia Qianjun walked over with a serious face.

It's a pity that Xia Qianyue didn't seem to hear it, and got into the car with Zhao Xiaoxiao, and then disappeared into the crowd.

"well--"

Seeing this scene, Xia Qianjun could only let out a long sigh.

Afterwards, he glanced at Zhang Tianlong, who was speaking in front of the media, and Zhang Youlin, the commander of this operation, and his eyes lingered on the two of them for a few times.

He didn't rush to the Oriental Star immediately, so he didn't know what happened.

But he knew that things were definitely not as simple as they seemed on the surface!

On the Oriental Star, something must have happened, something they didn't even know.

...

the next day.

The major media outlets in the Eastern Capital all reported a piece of news.

"Shocked, the famous murder lawyer, his real identity is actually a consultant of a pirate group! "

"Hiding evil intentions and attempting to bloodbath the Oriental Star, this is the person who claims to be a good lawyer? "

"Let's follow the camera, and let's take a closer look at the family history of murder lawyer Zhang Wei!" "

Under the hype of the media, Zhang Wei has been identified as the main culprit in the hijacking of the Oriental Star.

As for Duanmu Heizu, he became a secondary criminal instead.

After all, he is dead, and the media are not interested in a dead person, but the mastermind of the "disappearance", they are more interested.

According to the official data, Zhang Wei did not die, but was labeled as missing.

Likewise, with the end of the hijacking, the media are reporting on the heroes of this incident.

"The Incarnation of Justice, Facts Prove that Hou Liangliang Didn't Rely on the Shadow of His Fathers! "

"Fearless in the face of danger, fighting pirates bravely, such a person is not a hero, so who is?" "

"A rising star, waiting for the prosecutor to take an oath with injuries, will make the East a better place!" "

Under the publicity of the media, Hou Liangliang has become a hero.

The gunshot wounds on his body have also become a symbol of glory. Some fans even formed a support club and stood by the hospital every day to cheer for him.

Zhang Youlin, another hero in the hijacking incident, also became the second hero under the media coverage.

Of course, Zhang Youlin belongs to the special operations team, and the public can't see anyone on weekdays.

On the contrary, Hou Liangliang, who can meet every day and show his face in court, is more favored by fans and ordinary people.

For a while, even the local prosecutor's headquarters where he was located became the object of praise from netizens.

However, the serious crimes department of the local prosecutor's headquarters is a bit depressed at the moment.

As for the reason, it is because...

"I'm going to resign!"

Xiao Baihe looked at Zhao Chunming in front of him without any hesitation.

"Xiao Baihe, do you have to think about it?"

"I thought it through very clearly!"

Xiao Baihe's eyes were sharp, his tone was firm, and there was even a trace of suppressed anger.

"Okay, I get it!"

Zhao Chunming was hardly surprised by this resignation letter, because he had also heard some rumors.

"Xiao Baihe, it is your business that you want to resign, but as a prosecutor, you must be clear about your responsibilities. Even if you leave the local prosecutor's headquarters, you must not..."

"goodbye!"

Xiao Baihe didn't even have the intention to continue talking with Zhao Chunming, he just dropped the ID and left without looking back.

"Sure enough, the relationship between her and Zhang Wei is somewhat unclear!"

Watching Xiao Baihe leave, Zhao Chunming's eyes turned cold.

He knew that after Xiao Baihe left the local prosecutor's headquarters, he would definitely become a lawyer.

And with Xiao Baihe's previous strength, he will definitely become the enemy of the local prosecutor's headquarters.

Zhao Chunming opened the drawer, took out the notebook with many names written down, and then picked up the pen.

However, when he wrote his name, he hesitated for a moment, but he still wrote "Xiao Baihe".

"By the way, Zhang Wei's name can be blotted out. Even if he is really alive, it is impossible for him to return to the East to become a lawyer!"

Afterwards, Zhao Chunming turned a page forward and crossed out the word "Zhang Wei" on it.

They are all wanted criminals, how could they become lawyers.

Besides, whether this kid is still alive is a question!

at the same time.

Investigation Section, Serious Case Group 7.

"Team leader, I'm going on a mission!"

Xia Qianyue came to Wu Yong and said in a cold tone.

"Xiao Xia, what happened to Zhang Wei, you..."

"I'm going on a mission!"

"I know, we've all gone through this stage, paralyzing ourselves with tasks, but..."

"I'm going on a mission!"

"Xiao Xia, you can rest for a while and adjust your mood. I will give you a leave of absence, you..."

"I'm going on a mission!"

"Okay, there have been a few thefts in the northern part of the city recently. I heard that they were committed by gangs. Because they couldn't find any clues, they wanted to increase the number of people involved in the operation. I originally planned to ask Tamu Ani to support them. You should go too. !"

"Thank you Captain!"

Xia Qianyue took the order and left quickly.

"Hey, this girl is really..."

Seeing this, Lao Xing on the side hurriedly muttered.

But then, Wu Yong and Lao Xing could only look at each other with wry smiles on their faces.

next door.

Serious Case 1 scene.

"Team Lei, I was there at the time. What I saw was not like that. Zhang Wei and the pirates are opposing sides. They are not in the same group!"

"Lin Ruonan, let me tell you again, what you saw at the time may not be true. Zhang Wei may see the plan exposed and deliberately act with the pirates in order to get away with it!"

"Let dozens of pirates point guns at themselves?"

"As I said, this kid is capable of any tricks. And I'll stress it to you again. Now the higher-ups are going to arrange a joint operation to capture the pirate mastermind of the attack. I hope you will work with me to catch the pirate mastermind." To the prisoner!"

"I……"

"Okay, I have to explain to you every day these few days, I hope you can understand, this matter has been finalized, there is no other possibility!"

As Lei Hu said, without giving Lin Ruonan any chance to defend himself, he directly gave a sharp warning.

Looking at Tie Ruyun sitting in the waiting area, Lin Ruonan could only shake his head helplessly.

For the first time, she had doubts about the truth, or doubts about justice.

...

More than ten days later.

The media circle in the Oriental Capital once again became lively.

"The joint arrest operation was successfully completed, and the pirate leader xxx has pleaded guilty!" "

"The mastermind has been caught, the pirates repent, the attack was ordered by Zhang Wei!" "

"The Confessions of the Pirate Chief Before His Death Was Revealed, What He Regrets Most Is Provoking Dragon Kingdom!" "

The joint transnational arrest operation led by the special operations team and coordinated by the action team of the Dongfang Metropolitan Martial Arts Association has finally come to a successful conclusion.

The pirate leader who hijacked the Oriental Star "pleaded guilty and executed" and confessed to all crimes before his death.

In the home of the pirate leader, the encrypted emails between him and the "mastermind Zhang Wei" were found, further confirming Zhang Wei's identity as the mastermind of the hijacking case.

In short, everything is developing in this "just" direction.

The media in Dongfang Capital even put a label on this action.

Those who offend our Dragon Kingdom will be punished even if they are far away!

...

months later.

Oriental city center.

United Financial Building, Jessica's office.

"Excuse me, is this Dr. Jessica's office, here is your courier!"

Jessica looked at the courier in surprise, and carefully opened it after getting it to her office.

Inside was an unsigned letter.

She opened the letter, and a ruby ​​necklace slipped down.

"Dear Jessica, this ruby ​​necklace is perfect for you, so I bought it, love you Z."

Seeing this sentence in the envelope, Jessica covered her lips with one hand, and then her eyes became moist.

at the same time.

"Excuse me, is this Miss Xia's house? This is your courier!"

"Oh, I'm Xia Qianyue's mother, just give me the courier."

"No, the employer said, it must be delivered to Miss Xia personally!"

"Okay, okay...Girl, come out to pick up the courier, it's for you!"

Under the gaze of the courier staff, a girl with cold eyes came out slowly.

For some reason, the staff felt that what appeared in front of them was not a cute girl, but a beast.

He didn't know why his legs were soft.

"Miss Xia, this is a courier for you, sign for it, and I'll be leaving..."

With a trembling voice, the courier signaled Xia Qianyue to sign quickly, otherwise he would be overwhelmed.

Naturally, Xia Qianyue didn't make it difficult for the other party, and quickly signed the contract to let the other party go.

"Girl, I can't change your attitude when I say you. Look, it scares even the courier."

Li Qinghua wanted to teach Xia Qianyue a lesson, but unfortunately the latter didn't listen at all, but walked into the room with the express box.

"Why……"

Seeing this scene, she couldn't say anything, because her daughter had changed since that incident.

inside the room.

Xia Qianyue opened the express box, and then saw a delicate box.

There is also a letter next to the box.

"Dear Hanhan, I'm going to give this to you, but unfortunately, there was a little deviation in the plan, so I haven't found a chance..."

Seeing that familiar title and that line of characters, Xia Qianyue's cold expression seemed to be melted, and a smile emerged.

She opened the box, and inside was a glowing diamond ring.

"Zhang Wei, I know it, I know you..."

While crying, she put the ring on her middle finger.

But soon, she took off the ring, and after thinking about it, she chose to wear it on her ring finger.

Then, a happy smile appeared on her face.
