Chapter 938: Fallen Into the Net
Dongfang Yu glanced at the lights ahead. No matter what happened in the world at this moment, the neon lights still shone like stars.
The car still seemed to be driving in a sea of stars.
Dongfang Yu turned back for another look, but Lin Fanpeng's apartment was already out of sight.
He furrowed his brows in thought. Regardless, the current situation required a step-by-step approach.
Moreover, it was critical to maintain the connection with the Shang Family.
In terms of Lin Fanpeng's affairs, it was likely that Old Master Shang would have significant insider information...
Dongfang Yu slowly closed his eyes, choosing not to dwell on these matters; every issue had its way of being resolved.
Sometimes, one only needs to wait with a calm heart.
In places without lights, the night was as dark as ink.
The moon was shrouded by clouds, and when its light occasionally peeked through, it was just thin strands. Xiao Bai was the most carefree of them all, dozing off early in Dongfang Yu's arms.
...
Lin Fanpeng's crime syndicate finally fell into the net. This event was like Nine Heavens Thunder, like a giant stone dropped into a Deep Pool.
The impact it caused was far beyond ordinary people's imagination.
During Lin Fanpeng's time on the run, many were unaware of it, as announcing it without evidence was impossible.
One reason was the risk of alerting him, and another was the possibility of Lin Fanpeng turning the tables.
Nowadays, the law is very thorough; slander and defamation will be punished legally if there is evidence.
Law enforcement agencies, particularly, understand this well.
Therefore, when Lin Fanpeng moved from East Mountain and subsequent events happened, many people didn't know.
Especially those within the circle.
But today is different.
With solid evidence, Lin Fanpeng had no excuses left to defend himself.
They could bring him to justice even without his confession.
Most importantly, all investigations regarding Lin Fanpeng were conducted openly.
Thus, Lin Fanpeng's incident quickly spread throughout the circle.
In its wake, Lin Family's immediate relatives naturally faced some scrutiny.
After all, the most severe charge against Lin Fanpeng was treason, so anyone associated with him had to undergo isolation and investigation.
In no time, the previously somewhat quiet Lin Family was thrust back into the spotlight.
Those who had grievances against the Lin Family took the opportunity to add to the pressure.
For example, the victims from Lin Qinghuan's previous case.
And this time the isolation and investigation were indeed different from the last.
The previous incident didn't involve this charge of treason.
But this time, it was far graver than Lin Qinghuan's charges.
By now, everyone knew that, from this point on, especially the direct relatives of Lin Fanpeng, the Lin Family had no chance of recovering.
Whether in the military or politics, they couldn't pass the political review hurdle.
Those unaware in the Lin Family turned their anger towards Lin Fanpeng.
Those who knew, like Lin Fanpeng's eldest son, could only secretly be thankful that his father hadn't dragged him into many things.
Though he was at the golden age for a political career, the previous incident already affected him, let alone this time.
Fortunately, it had no impact on the younger generation pursuing other paths; if not in politics or the military, they could go into business.
But in any case, avoiding complete ruin was considered fortunate.
