Resurrection Empire

Chapter 740 280: Conclusive Evidence, Lawful Detention

Three minutes later, the unconscious Wang Jinsou was carried onto Xiao Xingyue's airship by two Black Armored Warriors, one on each side.

The airship flew directly to Yangsheng City, where it would stop at a villa-type prison managed by the Telekinesis Master organization.

Xiao Xingyue only reported half of the psychological evaluation results to the higher-ups.

She concealed the Alien Ore incident.

Of course, to avoid getting herself into trouble, she separately reported the Alien Ore-related information to Ying Hao and her direct superior.

The three of them had a brief discussion and decided to agree to Ren Zhong's request to temporarily hide the Alien Ore incident.

From this moment on, Ying Hao's choice meant that Chongyi Wang's family, a prestigious family dependent on Tianyuan Military Industry, was ruthlessly abandoned by its master.

At 6:30 in the afternoon, Ren Zhong slowly awoke in a suite at the Chongyi Alson Hotel.

His mind was still a bit foggy, and he felt weak, barely able to lift his arms.

Ren Zhong did not rush to contact others; instead, he first went online to check the news.

He opened the daily headlines and searched for Yangsheng City.

Bang!

The software immediately popped up two breaking headlines with consistently high attention, both somewhat related to him.

The top headline was about Wang Jinsou's arrest.

In the subcategory of this hot search, the top-ranked media article had reached a view count of 560 million.

The article's title was "Shocking! Inheritor of Source Star Military Industry's subordinate Second Level company Tianyuan Military Industry suddenly arrested! What hidden truths lie behind this? Is it the extinction of humanity or the corruption of morality? Watch as this reporter brings you exclusive firsthand on-site coverage! Some say that the longer the article title, the more viral it gets. I believe it."

Ren Zhong smirked silently.

Wow! Such bold words!

Can anyone be more on-site or firsthand than me, the mastermind behind it all?

These clickbait writers are truly hateful, not only freeloading off my long title idea but also bragging without batting an eye. They really managed to capitalize and go viral!

Although the article's traffic share is relatively low, in just half a day, it has gained a view count of 560 million. Even conservatively, the article could earn several million in traffic dividends.

Damn it!

With a rather complicated mood, Ren Zhong clicked on it.

He instantly understood upon seeing the content.

The author's name prominently appeared as Xiao Xingyue, the chief overseas reporter for Source Star TV.

Xiu'er!

You're the one who caught him.

You also wrote the news to catch some more traffic.

Are you covering the arrest, interrogation, detention, and news reporting all the way to the crematorium in one package?

You really know how to maximize every opportunity. You are indeed remarkable.

You are truly on-site and truly firsthand. I concede defeat to you.

After reading the news, he nodded slightly.

The progress of the situation was exactly as he had planned.

The evidence of Wang Jinsou's criminal acts was "ironclad," leaving no room for denial.

Now Wang Jinsou had been imprisoned in Yangsheng City's special prison by Xiao Xingyue on charges of hiring a killer to murder a high-level citizen.

All that was left was for Ren Zhong, the "victim," to wake up, file charges with the Association's management and the Telekinesis Master organization, and then have the Association's Law Enforcement Department dispatch a mobile court to Yangsheng City for an immediate trial.

Although Wang Jinsou was a Seventh Level Citizen Inheritor, he hadn't inherited yet, and currently, he was just a Fourth Level, standing a world apart from Ren Zhong's Fifth Level.

Based on past cases, if Ren Zhong remains relentless and the mobile court endorses all the witness testimonies and psychological evaluations, there is over an 80% chance that Wang Jinsou will be sentenced to death at Level Six or above.

The other 20% is being sentenced to death below Level Six.

Of course, there was additional news related to this underneath the main story.

It was the public statement made by Tianyuan Military Industry's chairman, Wang Dingyuan, in the afternoon regarding the matter.

Wang Dingyuan bore a 50-60% resemblance to Wang Jinsou, essentially an older version of him.

Equally lean, with prominent cheekbones, a hawk-like gaze, and an aura of power and overwhelming authority in his brows.

Wang Dingyuan addressed the camera and spoke to Ren Zhong remotely.

"There must be some misunderstanding about this matter. I know my eldest son; he has always been law-abiding. I can even make his behavior records public."

"These are 'net' evaluations of him, not just my personal opinions. You can see that Jinsou has consistently been marked as an excellent citizen by the 'net.' I don't believe he would be audacious enough to try to harm a Fifth Level Citizen. I will hire the best lawyers and do my utmost to communicate with Ren of the Ren Group to resolve this misunderstanding. Mr. Ren, please answer my communication as soon as you can. I am willing to have an honest exchange with you."
