655: Chapter 656 Krus’s Confession_1 655: Chapter 656 Krus’s Confession_1 Duan De carefully examined the events on Xinmeng Group’s path of development and it seemed that all the people and companies who had become enemies of Xinmeng Group were finished.

This was a very frightening thing.

Ordinary people would never suspect it was Xiao Chen’s doing.

But Duan De was different.

He didn’t quite believe that the King of Reincarnation was just repaying a debt; there must be other reasons involved.

Therefore, he did not want to offend Xiao Chen.

If it wasn’t for the fear of retaliation from the Bihai Club, he would have been eager to leave the Bihai Club.

“Don’t tell me you didn’t know about your precious son making a false testimony against me,”

Xiao Chen said coldly to Duan De.

Duan De chuckled and said, “Of course I knew, but when I saw that even Li Hang, who stays by Mr.

Xiao’s side, had given the same false testimony, I knew Mr.

Xiao must have had a plan,

So I didn’t interfere.”

“Heh, you’re quite clever.

Then do you know what I’m going to do next?”

Xiao Chen said with a smile.

He stared at Duan De for a while and realized that the old fellow didn’t seem to be lying.

His eyes had been honed on the battlefield; he could tell who was lying at a glance.

Either this old fellow was a great actor, or he was truly as he said.

“First have them give false testimony, then recant in court, claiming to have been coerced and bribed,”

said Duan De.

“Old thing, quite cunning,”

Xiao Chen felt that Duan De was somewhat dangerous; this old man was very slippery.

Duan De seemed to realize that Xiao Chen had begun to harbor thoughts of killing him.

He hurriedly knelt down and said, “Duan De is willing to pledge loyalty to Mr.

Xiao.

From now on, the Duan Family will be a subsidiary family clan to the Xiao Family!

Whatever you say, we will listen, never daring to have second thoughts!”

“Good.

In that case, I will spare your son once more, but he must do something for me,”

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

“Please, say it,”

nodded Duan De.

“Have him go to Krus tonight, try to coax information out of him, and make sure to bring along a hidden camera to record all of Krus’s true colors!”

Xiao Chen said.

“No problem!

Duan Long, did you hear Mr.

Xiao’s words?”

Duan Long was still in a daze.

How could his powerful and brave father suddenly become so humble in front of Xiao Chen?

But he wasn’t foolish.

He knew his father’s character better than anyone else and knew that his father had never made a wrong judgment over the years thanks to his cautiousness and unique insight.

Since they were now pledging allegiance to the Xiao Family, there must be a reason.

With this thought, Duan Long quickly crawled over to Xiao Chen’s side and said, “Mr.

Xiao, I know I’ve made a mistake.

Please let me atone for my sins with meritorious service.

I promise to complete the task you’ve arranged for me without fail.”

“Very well, all you need to do is this and this…”

Xiao Chen told Duan Long his arrangements and asked Duan Long to just follow them.

“No problem!”

Duan Long nodded.

Then that very night, he went to find Krus.

At that moment, Krus was having a gathering with a group of people.

And this group was precisely those who had attended Lawrence’s banquet that day.

It even included Lin Ying.

“Mr.

Krus, my apologies for being late!”

Duan Long opened the door and came in.

“Search him!”

“You want to search me too?”

Duan Long said, taken aback.

“Brother, sorry about this, but I have something to discuss today that can’t be leaked, so a search is necessary.

“Don’t worry, we have the most up-to-date detectors.

As long as someone has a bug or a pinhole camera, a voice recorder, something like that on them, one sweep and we’ll know,”

Krus said with a smile.

Duan Long cursed inwardly, but at the same time he admired Xiao Chen’s pre-arrangements.

Xiao Chen had actually guessed that Krus would use a detector.

So, the pinhole camera he had given him was a high-tech one, made entirely without any metal components, undetectable by the detector.

After all, the essence of a detector is its response to metal.

Without metal, there’s nothing it can do.

As for everyone’s cellphones, they had been confiscated before they even entered.

Only after confirming that Duan Long didn’t have any video or audio recording devices on him did Krus continue, “Tomorrow is the most critical day.

You all better listen up, what we said before is what we’ll say in court tomorrow.

After this is done, everyone will benefit.

Otherwise, I assure you, from tomorrow on, you’ll completely disappear from this world!”

Alright, you can leave now.

Duan Long, stay behind and have a drink with me.

The female defendant from the case the other day came to see me.

Tonight, let’s have some good fun,” Krus said with a laugh after the others had left.

He didn’t really have any doubts about Duan Long.

Because he knew exactly what Duan Long was like.

“I have to say, Big Brother Krus, you really did a splendid job.

If things keep going this way, even Jiang Meng will be forced by you!”

Duan Long said with a laugh.

“Forced sounds so harsh, I’m just making a deal,” Krus replied with a light smile.

“Jiang Meng really is too charming.

It’s such a waste for her to marry Xiao Chen.

You don’t know how many bosses in Blue Sea are eyeing her.

I was supposed to be at the back of the line.

Now, with this incident, I’ve got a perfect chance.”

“That’s true, that’s true!”

Duan Long nodded vigorously.

“Speaking of which, Big Brother, you’re amazing.

How do you manage to get all those law firm people to listen to you?”

“What am I?

It’s all thanks to Tie Gongji, the big boss’s help.

Langpu Group is the God of Wealth, the financial backer of Bihai Club.

Tie Gongji wants to vent his anger for Lawrence!”

“But there’s no evidence to prove that Xiao Chen killed Lawrence, is there?”

Duan Long asked again.

“Does it matter?

Whether or not he killed him is irrelevant.

What matters is that Tie Gongji has his eye on Xinmeng Group’s industries.

He wants to use this method to make Jiang Meng bow down!”

Krus snorted coldly, “When the two of us work together, there really aren’t many people in Blue Sea who can escape our schemes.

Even if they’re innocent, they’ll be made guilty!”

“Indeed, I agree with that!”

Duan Long nodded, “But did Manager Lawrence really have those thoughts about Jiang Meng?”

“Nonsense!”

Krus laughed, “You’re still too young, kid.

Lawrence has always said he likes Dragon Country women the most.

Delicate and cute, better than Western women.

He’s only been in Dragon Country for a few years, but he has ruined more Dragon Country women than you and I combined.

A few women wanted to sue him, but it was me who took care of it.

That day Lawrence bought a kind of blackout drug, that’s why Jiang Meng and Xiao Chen ended up unconscious.

I know that Lawrence couldn’t have been killed by them — they probably hadn’t even woken up.

But I just want to make them suffer.

No choice, man, I too want a taste of Jiang Meng.

Besides, I’ve taken Tie Gongji’s money, so I have to do his bidding.

Moreover, I am Bihai Club’s designated lawyer; I have to step in on such matters.”

It was because the ground was Duan Long, and after confirming that Duan Long had no recording devices or cameras on him, that Krus divulged the truth to him.

“By the way, this is top secret.

You mustn’t leak it, or we’re both done for,” Krus reminded.

Duan Long chuckled, “Of course, I won’t say anything.

Rest assured, after all I’ve committed perjury!

If something goes wrong, I’d be in trouble, too!”
