Chapter 380: Chapter 379, He’s Simply Not Human

Su Jianjun brought news that shocked Elder Fang.

Because he never expected Xu Wendong to be so audacious; after all, killing four people in broad daylight was a case that, in today’s context, would shock the entire country.

”No, no, that kid is meticulous, well-prepared, there’s no way he could make such a mistake,” Elder Fang was unwilling to believe the matter.

If it were true, even he couldn’t protect Xu Wendong.

”I heard Xu Wendong was severely beaten before he retaliated, killing the four assailants on the spot!” Su Jianjun knew about Xu Wendong’s work transfer, so he paid close attention to Xu Wendong’s every move.

Because he really wanted to know what Xu Wendong would do in Lianyun County, to see if his judgment was correct, to see if he could progressively rise on the political path.

It turned out.

He misjudged.

Xu Wendong’s temperament was totally unsuited for the political world, committing such a major crime on the second day of entering Lianyun County, which showed his extreme immaturity.

Elder Fang realized, ”So, what he did was self-defense?”

”Given Xu Wendong’s current injuries, it entirely fits the description of self-defense.” Su Jianjun hesitated for a moment, then continued, ”But the political scene in Lianyun is very corrupted; someone got ahead of the game and deleted all surveillance videos favorable to Xu Wendong, intending to convict him directly!”

Elder Fang looked toward the southeast, ”Can those people really distort the truth and do whatever they please?”

Su Jianjun said, ”Every city’s poverty and backwardness have their reasons, and Lianyun is no exception. The darkness there is far more shocking than we imagine.”

Elder Fang forced a smile, ”Are you blaming me for placing Wendong there?”

”That’s not what I meant!” Su Jianjun quickly lowered his head, though he thought so in his heart, he dared not admit it.

”Oh, you!” Elder Fang helplessly shook his head, ”When you were young, we could speak freely, discuss right and wrong, but now... your temperament has changed.”

”True, as the political world is a big melting pot, many people change upon entering it.”

He paused for a moment, then continued, ”I decided to transfer Wendong to Lianyun only after much consideration.”

”I know that place is filled with darkness; going there isn’t a wise choice.”

”But darkness can’t always shroud that city.”

”Someone needs to eradicate the corrupt and dark atmosphere there.”

Su Jianjun couldn’t help but ask, ”Do you think Xu Wendong has the ability to change the situation there?”

Elder Fang smiled, ”He’s very young, very capable, very bold, and most importantly, his edges haven’t been smoothed down; such a person is full of endless possibilities!”

Su Jianjun said, ”But he is now already in dire straits.”

Elder Fang’s lips curled up, ”The greatest sense of achievement comes from finding a way out of desperate situations!”

”Alright, this topic ends here.”

”Now that the game has begun, let’s just watch the drama unfold!”

Su Jianjun sighed helplessly; he didn’t believe Xu Wendong could turn the tides, as the situation there was very complicated, difficult even for them to intervene, let alone how Xu Wendong might save himself.

But.

None of that mattered.

What mattered was that Elder Fang already knew Xu Wendong’s situation.

Perhaps at a critical moment, he could save Xu Wendong’s life.

”Uncle Fang, I have another meeting, so I won’t disturb you any longer. Take care of your health; I’ll visit you again in a few days,” Su Jianjun said politely and then turned to leave.

Elder Fang’s voice rang out, ”In the future, in front of me, don’t refer to Xu Wendong by his name casually; he is my brother!”

Su Jianjun quickly said, ”I’ll remember!”

------

Xu Wendong’s life was very comfortable.

Lying on a hospital bed was quite leisurely.

Although he could use True Qi to heal his injuries, the injuries all over his body now served as his shield; as long as the injuries weren’t healed, he could lie in the hospital all the time instead of in the detention center.

Just that the four policemen at the door would come in from time to time, especially when he was about to fall asleep.

Their idea was simple.

Wait it out!

Wait until Xu Wendong’s spirit collapsed, then become helpless on the chopping block, sign and stamp the confession, thus transferring Xu Wendong to the court.

Just like that, Xu Wendong and they toughed it out for a whole three days and nights. During this time, he never closed his eyes, yet made those four policemen develop panda eyes.

”Director Wang, this guy is simply not human. The four of us stayed by his side, not leaving an inch for three days and nights, and he didn’t even blink!”

”He’s just like someone on stimulants.”

Seeing Wang Jianjun coming, a policeman directly complained.

Wang Jianjun, his face gloomy, couldn’t believe Xu Wendong was such a tough nut to crack, then said, ”Let him sleep for a while.”

The four paused and then understood Wang Jianjun’s idea. He wanted to let Xu Wendong fall asleep, then have him unknowingly sign and stamp the confession.

Thus, the policemen on shift left the ward, expecting Xu Wendong to fall asleep soon, but found that the guy was full of vigor, not tired at all.

This baffled them.

Why did this guy have such abundant energy?

It didn’t make sense!

Could it be because of a head injury?

Just like that.

Another three days and nights passed, Xu Wendong still didn’t sleep, remaining full of energy and lively.

This made Wang Zhengjun extremely angry, even berating his subordinates for incompetence.

He didn’t believe Xu Wendong hadn’t closed his eyes for six days and nights, refusing to believe anyone could be that outrageous, simply thinking his subordinates were finding excuses due to a lack of work capability.

Actually, Xu Wendong really didn’t sleep.

As a cultivator of the Second Layer of Qi Refining Period, whether he slept or not didn’t make much difference to him; even if there was a difference, it was only a physiological dependency.

Let alone six days and nights, even not sleeping for a month wouldn’t have much of an impact on him.

He only needed to quietly cultivate, and he could wear down others’ spirits until they broke.

Of course.

During these six days and nights, Bai Lu was very anxious because she didn’t know Xu Wendong’s current situation.

However, she also knew.

As long as there was no news of Xu Wendong, that was good news.

But on the morning of the seventh day, she received a call from a friend, informing her that Xu Wendong had signed the confession and was being transferred to the judicial organs.

The court session was set for ten in the morning.

When Xu Wendong heard this news, he was stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at those heavily armed policemen holding shields, ”No, when did I sign and stamp the confession?”

”I haven’t confessed, yet you’re going to transfer me to the judicial organs?”

”How can such an unbelievable thing happen to me?”
