104: Chapter 104: Outlawed Madman 104: Chapter 104: Outlawed Madman With Bai Jingze’s arrest, the entire Bai Group fell into turmoil.

Soon, within minutes, photos of Bai Jingze’s arrest began circulating online.

Passersby had captured images of Bai Jingze being taken away in a police car.

Quickly, these photos spread across the internet, causing rampant speculation amongst netizens.

That evening, the Su Wanqiao sisters were riding back in a Red Flag sedan.

All the way, Su Wanqiao was scrolling through TikTok, and she stumbled upon the various public opinions about Bai Jingze…

including the news of his sudden arrest…

Seeing these opinions, Su Wanqiao was stunned.

She was uncertain and sceptical.

Why were there suddenly so many crime-related posts about Bai Jingze online?

Was someone deliberately targeting Bai Jingze?

Who could it be?

Su Wanqiao turned to the driver, Lin Shuang, for the first time.

“Bai Jingze was blasted on the internet today, did you know?” Su Wanqiao suddenly asked.

While driving, Lin Shuang nodded, “I saw it on TikTok; he’s all over the trending searches now.”

“It broke out about ten minutes ago; they said the police took him away.

Did you do this to Bai Jingze?” Su Wanqiao suddenly asked.

She didn’t know why, but she instinctively thought of Lin Shuang, so she asked without thinking.

Lin Shuang shook his head, “How could I have the power to manipulate online public opinion?

And where would I get his criminal evidence from?

It’s probably the doing of some enemy of the Bai Family, right?

Using this opportunity to strike at the Bai Family.”

Hearing Lin Shuang’s explanation, Su Wanqiao dismissed the ridiculous thought from her mind.

Indeed, to control the entire internet’s public opinion and to obtain so much of the Bai Family’s criminal evidence would require immense resources, wouldn’t it?

Although Lin Shuang was highly skilled, he was powerless and without influence…

How could he possibly take down Bai Jingze?

There must be someone else behind this.

What was also strange to Su Wanqiao was that the online attacks against her and Lin Shuang suddenly disappeared overnight.

Were these two incidents connected somehow?

…

Bai Jingze had been taken into police custody.

Captain Qi Muxia personally interrogated him.

But Bai Jingze refused to speak.

He kept making wild statements, demanding Qi Muxia release him immediately!

Since Qi Muxia couldn’t get anything out of him, she simply locked him up in a cell…

to keep him there for 24 hours!

Until the next morning.

Hunger plagued Bai Jingze after an entire day of confinement.

Meanwhile, Bai Jingze’s father, Bai Wangchuan, rushed over at the earliest with a team of top-notch lawyers.

Bai Wangchuan used various means to bring in several ‘criminals’ who turned themselves in, taking the fall for his son, Bai Jingze.

All of the charges disclosed online against Bai Jingze were shouldered by these ‘scapegoats.’

Under his father Bai Wangchuan’s elaborate manipulation, Bai Jingze was eventually cleared of all charges, forcing the investigative team to release him due to lack of evidence.

This was the power of capital; money makes the devil turn the millstone.

With enough money, even the gravest of crimes could find someone willing to take the blame.

It was under the shadow of his father’s immense power that Bai Jingze managed to remain untouched by the law, becoming a lawless thug.

That morning, just after Bai Jingze was released, he went straight to his company and ordered a thorough investigation!

They had to find the mole!

Bai Jingze was furious.

He was determined to make Su Wanqiao pay!

But just as Bai Jingze was about to take action and retaliate against the Su Family, his father Bai Wangchuan stopped him.

“Given the public’s current knowledge of your feud with the Su Family, if you act now, everyone will suspect us.

It’s a sensitive time with a strong crackdown on vice and crime.

If we must act, we need to keep it clean; the Bai Family cannot get involved directly.

We need to find a black glove to do the work for us.

We’ve had good relations with the Peace Society over the years, with deep cooperation in the underworld.

Why not contact the Peace Society to do this for us?” his father Bai Wangchuan reminded in a profound tone.

Hearing his father’s words, Bai Jingze’s gaze hardened, “Dad, I understand what you’re saying, thanks to your reminder!”
