Of course.

Chen Fang made this judgment based on more than just a blind guess.

He knew very well that Lin Chengxiong had previously worked at the Supreme Court, and his proficiency in the law surpassed every one of them. Given the current evidence, whether he spoke or not, it was a death sentence. So rather than holding back, he might as well reveal the inner reasons and perhaps even bargain for a reprieve.

But he stubbornly refused to speak.

This was definitely not something the temptation of high office and riches could achieve.

The only possibility was that he had concerns.

Sure enough.

When the photos of his wife and daughter being safe were placed in front of him, Lin Chengxiong cried.

He clutched the photos and choked for a long time.

Then he slowly lifted his head, looked at Chen Fang, and said, "Alright, I can confess now..."

The sequence of events was actually not complicated at all.

It was only a few days after the Seventh Inspection Team's list was confirmed.

Lin Chengxiong returned home as usual.

But when he pushed open the door, he felt something was off.

The living room was a mess, as if it had been ransacked.

Then.

He received a call from an unknown number.

The voice on the phone told him that his wife, son, and daughter were in their hands. If he wanted to ensure their safety, he shouldn't call the police, and they gave him an address, telling him to go there immediately.

For the safety of his wife and children.

He did not call the police as instructed.

Upon arriving, he discovered it was an abandoned warehouse.

There, he met several men wearing Peking opera masks.

One of them directly took out a piece of paper and read aloud the ages, ID numbers, workplaces, and schools of his wife, children, and even his elderly parents at home, including the names of his kids' homeroom teachers.

This person told Lin Chengxiong.

To act as a mole within the Seventh Inspection Team and follow their remote instructions. If he couldn't do it, his entire family's lives would be at risk.

Of course.

If he could do it.

There were also benefits.

The first was five million in cash, and the second was promises of high office and riches.

Faced with the temptation of money and power, Lin Chengxiong would not compromise.

But his wife, children, and parents were his weak spot.

He knew very well that these people were ruthless, and if he refused, the consequences would be unthinkable.

And so.

Even before the Seventh Inspection Team set out, Lin Chengxiong had already become their informant.

"In this situation, why didn't you tell us? We could have helped you."

Hearing his account, Fang Kui asked, somewhat frustratingly.

Lin Chengxiong gave a bitter smile, shook his head, and said, "It's useless. If I told you, they would immediately take action. I didn't want to risk our family because of me. The reason you've been able to rescue them now is that I helped them commit murder, and they knew I had no way back..."

What Lin Chengxiong said made sense.

In fact, it was indeed the case.

After learning about his "betrayal" process.

The next target was the assassination of Ye Shaoyang.

After being ensnared by Chen Fang, Ye Shaoyang agreed to cooperate.

Lin Chengxiong, in the monitoring room, saw this all clearly.

He found an opportunity to report this situation to his contact.

Of course, under those circumstances, it was hard to explain clearly. He simply informed them that Ye Shaoyang was not dead and had started confessing.

Afterward, the contact instructed him to eliminate Ye Shaoyang immediately, to remove the threat permanently.

Just when Lin Chengxiong was uncertain about how to make his move.

Chaos erupted outside.

To prevent the Provincial Public Security Department's people from entering.

Most of the inspection team rushed to the entrance to block them.

Seizing this moment, he entered the room where Ye Shaoyang was being held.

His entry.

Did not arouse Yu Zhengchuan's suspicion.

And in that brief instant.

He drew his gun and directly shot Ye Shaoyang.

Yu Zhengchuan reacted quickly.

He leapt up, trying to grab the gun!

But no matter how fast he was, he wasn't faster than a gun.

Lin Chengxiong fired two shots at Yu Zhengchuan, knocking him down, and immediately fled the scene, blending into the crowd, pretending he had always been there.

This setup was the same now.

After he learned that Chen Fang had another "ace" in his hand.

He urgently notified his contact again.

What happened next was just as Chen Fang expected.

Altogether, it took about half an hour to get everything clarified.

To be honest.

Chen Fang felt somewhat rueful.

Lin Chengxiong could have had a promising future, but it was ruined because of Lin Jie and his people.

Since it was done out of desperation.

A death sentence might be unlikely.

However, a prison sentence during his prime was unavoidable.

He walked up to Lin Chengxiong.

Patting him on the shoulder.

Said, "It's alright, it's over now, your wife and daughter will be very safe..."

Hearing these words.

Lin Chengxiong once again covered his face and cried.

His capture did not bring joy to the inspection team.

After all, for everyone, this was a stark tragedy, a tragedy concocted by Lin Jie's group, and a promising young man's life just fell apart like this.

"Alright, everyone, pull yourselves together; this isn't the time for us to be down. I know you're all angry, and there's only one way to release this anger, which is to bring Lin Jie to justice. Let's get back to work; there's a lot we need to deal with today..."

Chen Fang was right.

So many things happened overnight, it must be reported to the Supreme Disciplinary Committee immediately.

Furthermore.

He was also mentally prepared.

Some people within the Nanliang Provincial Committee would certainly seize on Ye Shaoyang's sudden death to challenge him.

Over on Lin Jie's side, they had a wild night.

Partly because of drugs, and partly waiting for news from the inspection team.

This waiting finally led to bad news from Lv Feng.

The three sent to assassinate were all captured.

Upon hearing this news.

Lin Jie jumped up from the sofa.

Asked, "What about that person?"

Lv Feng shook his head and said, "So far, nothing has happened."

This answer was not just something Lv Feng made up.

When Lin Chengxiong was arrested, it was kept strictly confidential within the inspection team, known only to a few trusted individuals, and the news of the three assassins being captured was also transmitted through Lin Chengxiong's phone by people sent by Chen Fang.

"Damn it! A bunch of idiots! Useless! Good-for-nothings!"

Lin Jie slammed his fist.

Down on the coffee table.

Startling the two women sprawled across the sofa into waking.

"Ah Jie, I think we shouldn't make any more moves now. Chen Fang does have some tricks. How about we go abroad for a while..."

Lv Feng said with a bit of heartfelt advice.

At this moment, Lin Jie was already deranged.

The brief moment of triumph hadn't lasted long.

His plan had fallen through again, and how could he possibly swallow this insult?
