The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 645: Chapter 645 The Real Killing Move

RIS icin

Wei Pengcheng was caught off guard by the question, feeling bewildered. If Zhao Chuanchun had cto

demand Huo Ben, this would definitely stir up trouble, but what he had never expected was that Zhao was

actually looking for Lin Fan. Yet before he could defend himself, the door at his side was suddenly kicked open,

and Lin Fan, his hands cuffed, his face bruised and swollen, tumbled to the ground.

"County Magistrate Zhao... save me..."

Lin Fan, looking haggard, lay there, his appearance drawing a wave of sighs from the onlookers.

Zhao Chuanchun rushed over immediately, quickly helping Lin Fan to his feet, "County Magistrate Lin, what

happened to you?"

"That bastard trickedinto coming to assist with the investigation... but as soon as | walked in, he started

beatingviciously..."

Lin Fan, looking up, turned to a panicked Wei Pengcheng and said, "He forcedto accuse you and Huo Ben of

colluding with businesses and causing the death of County Magistrate Luan... | refused... and he started hitting

me... He lockedup in a room... wouldn't letout, saying... as long as | don't identify you for corruption and

bribery... he'd kill me!"

"You're spouting nonsense... when did | ever force you to say these things... if you keep making stuff up... do you

believe I'd just shoot you!"

Wei Pengcheng desperately roared back, but as he was gesturing with his gun at Lin Fan, Zhao Chuanchun

stepped in front of the muzzle, "Mr. Wei, if you want to smear me, Zhao Chuanchun, just catdirectly.

Everyone knows that Deputy County Magistrate Lin just got transferred to Red Flag County, hasn't even assumed

office. Even if you forced him to admit to these things, there would be no credibility. | don’t know what I did to

offend the people from the Provincial Department, but if you're going to act this way, you might as well shoot me

dead straightaway, why bother with all this charade?"

"| didn’t... coerce a confession... | hit him but not for this reason..."

Wei Pengcheng suddenly realized something was amiss, but once the words left his mouth, there was no taking

them back. Given there were now hundreds of cell phones recording him, even if he jumped into the Yellow

River, he couldn't clear his name.

"So, you admit you coerced a confession fromusing violence?"

Lin Fan revealed a cold smile as he watched Wei Pengcheng’s defeated demeanor, thinking this was just the

beginning.

"Take his gun away!"

At that moment, Chu Shiyuan’s voice cfrom outside the crowd. She, who had looped around from the

window, finally made her entrance, and following her command, Gao Man immediately stepped forward and

snatched away Wei Pengcheng’s firearm.

"Honey... | didn’t coerce a confession... | admit, | simply beat him up a bit, but | didn’t force him... I didn’t restrict

his freedom!"

Wei Pengcheng hastily tried to explain himself to Chu Shiyuan, but before she could speak, Zhao Chuanchun

helped Lin Fan stand up, "Chief Chu, if the Provincial Department has any suspicions, | welcan inspection

against me, but we surely can’t beat up our acting officials for no reason. If even our personal safety can’t be

protected, how are we supposed to carry out our work!"

"County Magistrate Zhao, rest assured, | will definitely give you a satisfactory answer to this matter. From now

on, | announce the official removal of Wei Pengcheng from his position as Deputy Chief, and we will ensure full

compensation for any relevant damages. | will also report this incident to the Provincial Department and ensure

that strict actions are taken; absolutely nobody will be above the law," Chu Shiyuan said, not forgetting to glance

at Lin Fan. If it were just something minor, she wouldn't ensure Wei Pengcheng’s utter downfall, which meant this

was likely only the beginning. Just then, a disruption arose from outside the crowd, and a group of officers from

the County Public Security Bureau rushed in.

"Old Wang, what are you doing? We're dealing with internal conflicts; do we really need to involve the police

force?"

Zhao Chuanchun asked with a stern face upon seeing the Deputy Director of the County Public Security Bureau

leading the group.

"Reporting to you, County Magistrate Zhao, I'm not here for that... We just received a report of a rape!"

Deputy Director Wang's eyes shifted towards Chu Shiyuan while speaking, and an instinctive step back from Wei

Pengcheng also made her sense that something was amiss.

"Rape... Could it be that the criminal is here among us?"

Zhao Chuanchun asked, furrowing his brows.

"Correct, according to the victim's identification and surveillance along the way, the suspect of the sexual

assault... is that Wei Pengcheng!"

Director Wang's words suddenly silenced the crowd, and just then, Lin Fan's voice eerily resonated, "People from

Provincial City really don’t consider us county folks as humans, causing a scene at County Magistrate Luan’s

funeral, assaulting a Deputy County Magistrate, and now raping one of our county’s women. Are you sure you're

the investigative team from Provincial City, and not invaders in our village?"

"Honey... listen toexplain... it’s not what they say... I've been wronged... | really didn’t do it, this bastard

must be framing me!"

Wei Pengcheng grabbed Chu Shiyuan’s arm, desperately trying to explain, while she also knew that this might

very well be what Lin Fan referred to as "beyond salvation." Handing over Wei Pengcheng like this would make it

difficult for her to explain herself once back.

Thus, she shook off his arm and said, "County Magistrate Zhao, since this case involves a member of our work

team, of course we cannot bend the law for personal gain, but | request a joint investigation!"
