Impossible! He must be lying. Zhao Yu thought.

Zhao Yu couldn’t believe that Jiang Ke didn’t know the mysterious man. He was shocked. If the mysterious man had nothing to do with Jiang Ke, why would he have taken such a significant risk to help Jiang Ke escape from prison?

“Are you kidding me?” he asked with a doubtful tone, “Boss! It’s not a good time for jokes. Someone helped you get out of prison. How could you not know him? How is it possible?”

“Humph!” Jiang Ke made an annoying sound while eating the roast goose. Then, he said, “To be honest with you, I originally thought Zhao Yu was setting a trap for me, but he jumped from the bridge. I saw that with my own eyes.”

Jiang Ke didn’t seem to be lying, but Zhao Yu was confused by what he said.

Tian Xudong said with a shaking voice, “To me, this is a trap! The police may have secretly besieged my supermarket. We should run.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ke became angry and suddenly started hitting Tian Xudong. Jiang Ke growled, “Tian Xudong, look at yourself. Don’t forget how you achieved what you have today. Why would I call you if I wasn’t sure about everything? The police won’t waste their time on you.”

Jiang Ke’s voice had a very controlling power. Tian Xudong couldn’t speak smoothly. “Boss. I still don’t understand. If it isn’t the police, who was able to get you out? And, how on earth did you get out?”

Jiang Ke snorted and told Tian Xudong the whole story about how he ‘was captured and how he escaped. Tian Xudong was amazed by Jiang Ke’s dramatic experience. It seemed like a fiction story to him.

Jiang Ke shook his head and said, “I don’t recognize that voice. It sounds processed, and it sounds like a female to me. That’s not important. This mysterious guy is amazing. You should see how this person used Zhao Yu to get me out. I couldn’t think of a better plan.”

Tian Xudong said, “On moral principles, it’s not right to threaten someone using children and women. This guy is not our type.”

Jiang Ke stopped eating and said, “Yes, I can tell that from what Zhao Yu said to him. In the beginning, Zhao Yu showed me some photos. That was kind of surprising because I took those nude photos years ago in Mengxiang.”

Tian Xudong didn’t know anything about what Jiang Ke was saying.

Jiang Ke explained, “I didn’t know her. She looked rich, so I thought about getting some money from her. I didn’t know that she was a police officer until after I took nude photos of her. I was under several charges at that time. No way would I threaten a police officer.”

Tian Xudong exclaimed, “You’ve never told me that you had slept with a cop!”

Jiang Ke said, “I didn’t. She was good looking and had a nice body, but she drank too much. She also used drugs. At first, she was extremely high, but later, she laid there like a dead person. That was frustrating.”

Tian Xudong asked in surprise, “You didn’t touch her?”

Jiang Ke said, “I only wanted money from her. That’s how I made my name. I’m not a bad guy. OK!! Give me another helping; it’s getting cold.”

Zhao Yu thought. Using nude photos to blackmail a police officer isn’t evil — what a funny world?

Tian Xudong handed Jiang Ke another helping and said, “But, how is this related to your prison break?”

Jiang Ke continued his explanation, “She died recently, according to Zhao Yu.”

Tian Xudong was more confused, ‘That doesn’t make sense. You were in prison at that time. Are they suspecting you?”

Jiang Ke took a bite of the goose and said, “You should ask a doctor to examine your brain functions. The person who helped me escape killed the female police officer. When we were on the bridge, Zhao Yu also brought up the Ziliu case. In my opinion, that case had nothing to do with us. They had a history. They just used us.”

Tian Xudong said, “No, boss, you played a big role in this. What’s the Ziliu case? What about Gao Lanqi?”

Jiang Ke said with contempt, “Idiot? Haven’t you heard about the Ziliu case? Five people died, and they took 800 thousand dollars. It was 12, no, 13 years ago. I was at Gao Lanqi at that time. Everyone was talking about that case.”

Tian Xudong said, “Oh. I see. Rumors say that you are the murderer.”

Jiang Ke denied this accusation firmly, “Of course not! If I had 800 thousand dollars. Why would I stay at Gao Lanqi and take nude photos of that cop.”

Tian Xudong agreed, “You’re right, but I still don’t get it. Why would that guy help you? His target is Zhao Yu.”

Jiang Ke had a deep breath and said, “You are finally understanding. I don’t understand it either. Zhao Yu Jumped from the bridge, and I escaped. Was this man making me the scapegoat? If the police don’t catch me, then no one knows about him. Even if the police suspect that someone helped me escape, they would think we were together, right?”

Tian Xudong thought about it and said, “So, you are saying that the person who helped you is the murderer in the Ziliu case?”

Jiang Ke said, “Finally! Yes! Zhao Yu also said that before. After he caught Han Kuan and became famous, he was called the master of the unsolved case. The mysterious person is afraid that Zhao Yu will find out the truth about the Ziliu case. So, the mystery person used me to help him get rid of Zhao Yu. Enemy’s enemy is a friend. That person doesn’t care about my escape at all. He only wants to kill Zhao Yu.”
