I'm Actually The Big Villain In The Book

Chapter 27: Taking down Li Kan

Like the settings of many novels, the Daning Dynasty has always maintained a "zero tolerance" attitude towards monsters.

Ever since a yellow-skinned man was almost enthroned as emperor a hundred years ago, the living environment for monsters in Daning has become more and more difficult. Not only has "the monster cannot be pardoned" written into the law of Daning, but the Xuanjing Division has been established for the first time. He set up the official demon-removing organization-"Liu Ye Department".

For ninety-nine percent of demons, once they are discovered, what awaits them is an endless pursuit.

The remaining small part will be imprisoned in Xuanjing Division's special "demon suppression prison" and become a "production machine" for certain precious materials.

A giant spider that spins silk day and night, a giant fish whose scales can be used as a breastplate, and a nine-foot-long white snake that can secrete the most poisonous thing in the world... Big monsters that have not yet transformed have been arrested from all over the country to suppress them Hell until the last bit of value is squeezed out.

The Demon Suppressing Prison is the only place where demons are legally kept. If a private person dares to keep any monsters, no matter what the reason is, it will be regarded as "conspiracy".

There is absolutely no possibility of opening the net.

So now that Wei Changtian said that Zhang Hongwen "feeds demons", he was undoubtedly sentenced to a heinous crime that could implicate the entire family.

...

The air in the main room was almost frozen.

The clear and translucent tea was already cold, Li Kan stared at Wei Changtian with wide-eyed eyes, and his Adam's apple squirmed slightly.

He had no way of judging whether it was true or not.

But Wei Changtian's expression was serious, he didn't seem to be joking.

"..."

After a while, Li Kan finally calmed down and asked, "Mr. Wei, do you know what you just said?"

"Know."

Wei Changtian nodded: "It means that the entire Zhang family will lose their heads."

"..."

Li Kan took a deep breath and asked again: "Then do you know that there must be no half-truth in this matter?"

"Of course, since I dare to say it in front of Mr. Li, I already have ample evidence."

Wei Changtian spoke with certainty.

In the novel, Xiao Feng relied on Zhang Hongwen's handle of "feeding demons" to threaten the Zhang family for his own use, and finally became a great weapon against the Wei family.

No matter how Heavenly Dao fights against him, it is absolutely impossible to change the fact that has already happened.

"it is good……"

Seeing that Wei Changtian was so sure, Li Kan finally believed half of it.

He was silent for a long time, and slowly began to have other thoughts in his mind.

If Zhang Hongwen died because of sin, then he could indeed go one step further.

Of course, Wei Jiading had some plans, but he didn't know what he wanted from him...

You can talk to Wei Xianzhi!

"Mr. Wei, this matter is too important. I'd better wait until I meet Mr. Wei at the mansion tomorrow..."

Li Kan made up his mind to directly negotiate terms with Wei Xianzhi, but Wei Changtian interrupted him without thinking:

"Master Li, only I know about this matter now."

"what?"

Li Kan was taken aback, and his tone was full of disbelief: "Didn't the Xuanjing Division find out about this?"

"no."

Wei Changtian shook his head: "It was discovered by my subordinates, and I have confirmed it myself, it is absolutely true."

"How can I trust you?"

Li Kan asked almost subconsciously.

In his heart, the "credit ratings" of Wei Changtian and Wei Xianzhi are completely different.

In the face of doubts, Wei Changtian didn't explain much, but said indifferently: "Lord Li, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, but I can tell you this..."

"As long as I think about it, Zhang Hongwen will be reduced to a prisoner within three days."

"..."

as long as i want.

Li Kan keenly caught the key words and knew that Wei Changtian was about to make a request.

After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and decided to speak directly.

"Young Master Wei, since we've already talked about this, let's get straight to the point."

"How are you willing to do anything to Zhang Hongwen? What do you need me to do?"

"Hahaha! Master Li is refreshing!"

Wei Changtian laughed twice, knowing that half of what he had done today was already done.

"To be honest, I want Master Li to do me a little favor."

"A few days ago, I heard that the Liu family ordered many villains to sue me for several crimes, and it seems that there will be a joint trial by the three divisions...Master Li, I don't know if this is true or not?"

"Uh……"

Li Kan was taken aback, he didn't expect Wei Changtian to come here for this matter, let alone Wei Changtian was able to find out about this matter.

You must know that the Liu family is behind the interrogation of the three divisions. From the Ministry of Criminal Justice to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and then to Dali Temple, there are very few people who know the inside story, and the secrecy is very strict, in order to catch the Wei family by surprise.

This is also the reason why he didn't get in touch with it just now.

But who would have expected that a group of them would hide it for a long time, but Wei Changtian already knew about it!

Could it be that this son really controls an intelligence organization that is more treacherous than the Xuanjing Division?

Li Kan's eyes on Wei Changtian changed for a while.

It’s just that even if he killed him, he would never have thought that the culprit of the leak was actually Li Yang.

Defense by day and night, house thieves are hard to guard against!

"It is true."

Now that Wei Changtian has said it out, Li Kan also knows that there is no point in hiding it now, so he simply admitted it generously: "Liu Xiang personally intervened in this case, and there are very few insiders, and he has been pushing it secretly before."

"Yes, I know."

Wei Changtian nodded, and said directly, "Master Li, I just need you to tell me one thing."

"What's up?"

"The list of witnesses in this case, and where are they being held now?"

"..."

Li Kan's complexion changed instantly: "Are you going to... kill them?!"

"Master Li, I didn't say that."

Wei Changtian smiled: "You just need to tell me the list and address, and I will take care of the rest."

"This……"

Li Kan fell into a long exam.

He knew very well that the choice this time was not as simple as exchanging information for a chance of promotion.

This is a stand that concerns his official career, and even his life.

The Liu family or the Wei family?

If what Wei Changtian said is true, it seems that it would be more reliable to choose the Wei family.

After all, even if he handed over the list of witnesses, the Liu family may not be able to find out that he did it, at least there will be no trouble in a short time.

And if you don't pay, you will undoubtedly have an enmity with the Wei family from now on.

But... is what Wei Changtian said true? Did Zhang Hongwen feed demons?

Li Kan was extremely entangled, but he had to choose.

Just when he hesitated for a long time and still couldn't make up his mind, Wei Changtian suddenly turned his head to look at the landscape painting behind him, and asked seemingly casually: "Master Li, this painting has a profound artistic conception, I don't know which master it is from." ?”

Li Kan was taken aback, but still answered truthfully: "...Ye Yi'an."

"Ye Huasheng!"

Wei Changtian smacked his lips: "Tsk tsk, then such a large painting is worth a thousand gold."

"Young Master Wei, this painting is a gift from a friend of mine."

Li Kan said seriously: "I didn't know the value of it at the time, otherwise I would definitely not accept it!"

"Crack clap clap!"

The sound of clapping hands suddenly echoed in the quiet hall, full of mockery.

Looking at Li Kan, whose face was flushed, Wei Changtian applauded and said with a smile, "Master Li is a bit modest in saying that. It's just a mere daughter, so it shouldn't be a big deal to you."

"Young Master Wei! What do you mean by that?"

"What's the meaning?"

Wei Changtian got up and walked to stand in front of the landscape painting, and reached out to touch the small boat painted on it.

"The treasures hidden behind this wall alone are enough to buy dozens of Ye Yi'an's paintings."

"..."

"Clang! Plop!"

There was a sound of tables and chairs being overturned behind him, and the young Li Kan was frightened by these words and directly collapsed on the ground.

This time, he had no choice at all.

"Wei, Mr. Wei, from now on, I will be at your disposal. Also, please hold your hand high, hold your hand high..."

Wei Changtian didn't look back, and didn't answer, he just asked the question again: "Where are those people hidden by the Liu family?"

"Ren, Ren'an Square, Huaihua Lane..."
