Chapter 685 - No Way Out (V)

Guan Gu Ri smiled faintly at the person whom he had previously always thought as his brother, the person who had deceived him for many years, and who was now obviously containing his anger and panic inside.

His dark eyes slowly took everything he was seeing in.

Gunan exploded.

All hints of refined pretense had flown away in front of everyone, baring his true face.

"You! Who gave you the authority? I am the chairman of the Guan Empire! This is my territory!"

"Chairman? You think you are?"

"As far as I remember, I am given full authority over the Guan Empire..."

Guan Gu Ri mockingly smiled. His eyes were eerily cold. "I'm tired of watching this now. It's about time to put an end to your show, Gunan."

"What are--" The voice abruptly stopped.

His eyes met another pair that were devoid of emotion.

Gunan. He called him Gunan!

Gunan's eyes turned wide.

A chill crept into his heart.

...He knew.

In front of him, the shallow smile on Guan Gu Ri's lips slowly disappeared.

Perhaps due to his overwhelming hatred, he did not explode, shout, or punch in anger.

He was long past the explosion stage. His emotional state was now like a bubbling white-hot lava slowly and quietly rolling around, burning everything to embers in furious silence.

"You will pay for all your sins. For what you have done to my brother, and to my grandfather."

He… He knew everything?!

Shock and disbelief were apparent in his eyes.

No, no, it can't be true… I must be hallucinating due to anger...

Because, if this was all true--

An officer from the national investigation team stepped forward and gestured politely.

"Please come with us, Sir Guan Gao Huan. You are suspected of committing illegal transactions relating to smuggling, human trafficking, illegal drugs…. You are suspected of violating legal business regulations and deception.... You are suspected of commiting severe identity theft and falsification....You are suspected of assisting Xiong De in attempted murder…."

The long series of charges listed one by one by the officer in charge made everyone who followed after Gunan dazed.

Smuggling, human trafficking, illegal drugs…

Deception… Identity falsification…

But.

Attempted murder together with Xiong De?

The chairman was suspected of attempted murder?!

This was an attempted murder they were talking about, and not only to anyone but to Master Xiong!

What was happening?!

Were all those rumors really true?!

The people on the floor could not comprehend what they've heard nor believed it for a moment.

After a few seconds of standstill, the whole place exploded.

The first thing they reacted to was the faith of the Guan Empire after having the empire's Chairman being arrested by the police.

"T-the e-empire is done for!"

While they were clamoring in panic, Guan remained unmoved.

He was stunned.

He had moles planted around the relevant departments. Although they could not move freely in the domestic police department as they had negligible positions, they should still be able to at least receive news.

There was no news about a pending report or a request for a warrant, so Gunan thought that they were still at the level of buying time.

However, it had already quietly reached and been processed by the police?

They collected all the evidence presented before and waited for this time.

How long...How long have they planned this out?

Having a deceitful scheme being laid on him and stepping on it unknowingly scared Gunan for the first time.

Guan Gu Ri knew about him all along. And the man stayed beside him with gentle smiles and worried faces all this time...even he knew he had stolen his brother's identity and killed his grandfather.

Gunan shuddered.

How could he not notice? That the man beside him was wearing a mask all this time...?

And the man even waited for the right time to take off his mask...

"Ha."

Gunan could not believe that he had been played. Fear and maddening anger rise on his heart.

Guan Gu Ri.....had no plans to give him a way out.

Gunan face was blank. He stood still in place.

The police officer continued to say with caution. "You have the right to remain silent right now. You can clarify things later and in the court. Anything you do or say may be considered as evidence."

This was the extent of the friendly reminder that the police officer could give to this suspected criminal, for the sake of his surname Guan.

The police officer's words, however, were blurred in Gunan's ears.

He was numbed.

It all happened so fast.

Everything just collapsed in the blink of an eye.

He thought that he had planned well, but the enemy had planned ahead of him.

His Univ One was under warrant of investigation. In a matter of time, all the alleged rumors would be proven true. This was more than enough to make him lose his chairman position and cease Univ One's operations. All of his hard work for many years went up in flames just like that.

The investigation on the identity falsification would also have a forgone conclusion. Although his bloodline remained, the percentage range of the DNA test results had been in the rare case category and could be brought up again. Given the circ.u.mstances, anyone would realize the truth.

And now, he was also facing an attempted murder case with Xiong De's lead. It would also be proven true in a short time. He would land in jail, no matter what.

Gunan shuddered. What should he do?

He still had that countermeasure for Univ One, but with Xiong De's unexpected appearance, it destroyed everything he had prepared for.

What should he do?

What should he do now?

How could he get everything back to how they were before?

Gunan sought to think of ways, but when he realized that the situation had truly gotten out of hand, he dazedly stayed in place with a disbelieving expression.

He had no way out.

The decades of hard work and planning… All became pointless, just like this?

Gunan was still in daze and did not notice the officer putting handcuffs on him. It was the sounds of metallic cuffs clinking that made Gunan wake up.

No...!

He should not give up!

Not yet!

With renewed vigor, he struggled and shouted. "It's not me! You are all mistaken! I got schemed at! Someone plotted against me!"

He looked at the crowd of directors who had just flocked around him with flattery a week ago.

"You must get me out of here! It is all planned by Guan Gu Ri! That bastard planned everything to get the chairman position from me! Why can't you see it?"

The people who fawned at him before just looked at Gunan with condemnation. Blaming him of bringing the empire down with him.

Guan Gu Ri stood quietly and watched him without any expression.

Gunan's nonsensical ramblings were useless struggles. They had all the evidence in their hands. The only thing they needed now was the national investigation team confirming the evidence and the appointed time for the court.

Now was the time for this man to watch everything he had stolen crumble to pieces.
