As for how he ended up at the police station, Ling Zhenfei didn't know; anyway, it all felt like a blur. He felt he had already put forth his best effort.

But he was still defeated by the cunning Nangong Changhe. Truly defeated.

Ever since Di Tian Shen Sui first appeared, though there had been small setbacks, it had mostly been smooth sailing for Ling Zhenfei. The Xishan Manor grew larger, the Xi Shan Restaurant thrived more than ever, and his luck with women seemed endless.

No matter if it was the Triad, the young master Ma Long, Watanabe Kazushi, or the Zhou Family, Ling Zhenfei had defeated many people along his path, but today he fell at the hands of Nangong Changhe.

Ling Zhenfei understood in his heart, even if he proved his innocence in the future, it wouldn't be easy to regain his former stature.

Right now, Ling Zhenfei was considered a public idol; people of all ages were his fans. Enthusiastic about public welfare, treating others for free, even being Moergawa's Prince and Prince Consort, this kind of honor others would not have dared to dream of.

But all of this had ended just like that. Maybe after getting out, he'd still be Miracle Doctor Ling Zhenfei, but those who didn't like him would always have topics and ammunition against him.

Doing good is hard; being a good person is even harder. Everything started because of helping Du Zhongming with his illness. The free treatment, however, did not yield a good return from people's hearts.

Ling Zhenfei was detained in the police station. Since it was already night, the station felt particularly desolate.

At that moment, Officer Zhang arrived and sat across from Ling Zhenfei.

Officer Zhang, whom he had met earlier that day, couldn't believe it. In just a few hours, Ling Zhenfei had been brought in like this.

"I really can't believe it. Although there are so many suspicious points in this matter, I don't even know how to articulate them," Officer Zhang said helplessly.

Ling Zhenfei replied, "It's obvious that this was a setup. Can't you see that? That person was Xu Liang."

Officer Zhang was momentarily startled, "You're saying the dead person was Xu Liang?"

Ling Zhenfei nodded, "Exactly, it's Xu Liang. How could it be such a coincidence that he died there, just at the moment when reporters arrived and right in front of everyone."

Officer Zhang was somewhat dumbfounded and said, "Ling Zhenfei, if that person truly is Xu Liang, your suspicion won't be any easier to clear. It's too much of a coincidence.

Especially the recording device, which captured everything too clearly. Placed somewhere else to die, this wouldn't even require interrogation. Without any testimony, you could be sentenced."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't you think there are many dubious points here?"

Officer Zhang said, "First of all, you had a conflict with Xu Liang, so you have a motive for the crime. Second, many people testified seeing you take Xu Liang away, and there's also a blurry video. Third, you don't have an alibi to prove Xu Liang's death has nothing to do with you.

Both reporters and our people went up after hearing fighting sounds, and upon arrival, they discovered the deceased. The deceased had just died, and the recorder captured your conversation. Is there anything to argue about?"

Ling Zhenfei was aghast; he really had nothing to argue about, as everything was indeed very unfavorable to him.

Ling Zhenfei said, "The recording on that device was obviously edited. You should find a professional; there must be a way to prove it."

Officer Zhang sighed and said, "Mr. Ling, I really want to prove your innocence, but none of the evidence now can prove you're innocent, so there's nothing I can do."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Can you call Lawyer Wang? There are some things I want to discuss with him; maybe he'll understand."

Officer Zhang said, "Yes, that is allowed, but tomorrow you may be transferred to the detention center. With such severe suspicion, getting out won't be easy."

Ling Zhenfei nodded, "There's no choice. Thank you, Officer Zhang. I know you're just doing your job."

Ling Zhenfei understood these things very well. Officer Zhang had already done a commendable job.

Ling Zhenfei was alone in a room, and his phone from Di Tian Shen Sui kept ringing. Looking at the number, he saw it was Bai Ling calling.

Ling Zhenfei answered the phone; on the other end, Bai Ling's anxious voice came through, "Ling Zhenfei, what happened?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Nothing serious, just a small mishap."

"A small mishap? Do you know the online forums are exploding? What's going on since you went to Tangcheng, nothing good seems to happen," Bai Ling said, very worried.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Indeed, Tangcheng is where I met my downfall. I guess I'll have to stay here for a few days."

Bai Ling said, "I'm going to Tangcheng immediately and find a way to get you out."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Whether or not I get out doesn't matter, I've already asked He Lingxiu to contact Chen Qian. To play with someone like Nangong Changhe, only Chen Qian might handle it."

Nangong Changhe always gave Ling Zhenfei wrong hints, suggesting they were playing chess. Chess demands fairness, but he was extremely unfair.

To use chess as an example, Nangong Changhe's goal was very clear—to checkmate Ling Zhenfei. Ling Zhenfei was like the old general, his target was Ling Zhenfei.

But who was Ling Zhenfei's target? Could it be Nangong Changhe? But as long as Nangong Changhe stayed hidden, and one was open while the other was concealed, there was no way to deal with it.

Bringing in Chen Qian was because Chen Qian also studied Tactics and strategy, at least he could stabilize the situation. If he could get Ling Zhenfei out, that would be even better.

Bai Ling said, "When I'm not around, things fall into chaos."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's why I still can't do without you. Sometimes it's quite good like this; although I can't go out, at least I'm not disturbed."

Bai Ling anxiously said, "I'm so worried here, but you seem to enjoy it. What are you thinking? You have such a big heart."

Ling Zhenfei said, "In a while, my phone will probably receive a bombarding of texts and calls. What should I do?"

Bai Ling said, "Being able to make phone calls in a police station situation is already very fortunate. Be content."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Do you believe I'm secretly taking calls?"

"I trust you, I believe anything," Bai Ling said while tearing up.

"Why are you crying?" Ling Zhenfei asked.

Bai Ling said, "All along, I thought you were invincible. Who would have thought you'd have such a time? Rest assured, I'll find a way to get you out."

No matter who you are, there are times of difficulty. A person's life cannot always be smooth sailing. But for Ling Zhenfei, this was still good; at least he wasn't directly accused of murder, only detained.

After hanging up with Bai Ling, shortly thereafter, Wang Wei arrived at the police station, and the two met.

Wang Wei was also a bit incredulous and said, "Mr. Ling, this is truly shocking. We were just talking fine this afternoon."
