Rural Mad Doctor

Chapter 489 Forcing Out the Witch

Shang Junqi had already discussed countermeasures with Cao Erdan before he arrived.

They knew that the business tycoons in Hong Kong and mainland China were now deeply hostile towards the Imperial Family, instigated by Ouyang Kang.

They believed that the imperial gate was there to manage them and interfere in their lives.

However, Shang Junqi's mission in Hong Kong and mainland China is peacekeeping, not killing and conquest.

The economy of Zhonggang City still depends on these bigwigs.

Moreover, while it's true that these people support cultivators, few of them commit crimes or evil deeds.

Mostly for their own safety.

Unlike Ouyang Kang, who was a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Now that Ouyang Kang is dead, the remaining Ouyang Junnan is just a playboy and can hardly win people's hearts.

So the current goal is to take down the Black Wind Society and thwart the plans of the Japanese dogs.

Then we still need to win over and appease these bigwigs who are unaware of the truth.

Shang Junqi laughed and said to Ouyang Junnan:

"We came here for the good of your Ouyang family; otherwise, we wouldn't have come in this heavy rain! Someone, bring the sacrificial offerings!"

The head of the hall stepped forward and presented the funeral couplets and flower baskets.

The business tycoons from Hong Kong and mainland China finally calmed down a bit, wondering what the people from Huangmen were up to.

Those who are more shrewd have already shut up and are waiting to see the outcome.

However, some people are still speaking up for Ouyang Junnan:

"Sending a funeral couplet doesn't warrant such a grand commotion and barging in. This is a great disrespect to the deceased!"

Shang Junqi said calmly, "Firstly, we should mourn Mr. Ouyang. Secondly, there is another matter that is of great importance!"

Everyone quieted down to listen.

Seeing that Ouyang Junnan remained silent, Mao Ying cursed him inwardly as a good-for-nothing, as the imperial family had seized control of the conversation in just a few words.

However, since she could manipulate Ouyang Junnan from behind the scenes, and with so many powerful figures present, she couldn't directly go down and issue orders.

He could only walk down step by step, standing behind Ouyang Junnan, waiting for an opportunity to teach him how to deal with it.

Shang Junqi said to those aggressive bigwigs:

"Our main purpose in coming here is to arrest members of the Japanese triad, the Black Wind Society, who are causing trouble in Hong Kong and mainland China!"

"what?"

These business tycoons disliked the interference of the royal family, but after all, these were matters within their own country.

No one likes to associate with the Japanese underworld, for fear of being branded as a traitor to their own country.

Hearing Shang Junqi say this, someone couldn't help but ask:

"These are all business people from Hong Kong and mainland China. Where are any members of the Japanese Black Wind Society? What evidence do you have?"

Shang Junqi waved his hand:

"Bring it up!"

Then, the team members behind them walked up with three men in black.

Shang Junqi said, "These are all warriors from the Black Wind Society. They ambushed our Royal Gate people tonight. They have confessed that it was Mao Ying, the assistant to the president here, who sent them. And this Mao Ying is a spy of the Black Wind Society. She is manipulating Ouyang Junnan. We even suspect that Mr. Ouyang Kang's death is related to them. It is very likely that he was killed by them!"

"No, my father died from a fall, I didn't kill him!"

Shang Junqi's words struck a nerve with Ouyang Junnan, who was so frightened that he quickly tried to explain.

Mao Ying secretly tugged at him, trying to calm him down.

At this point, she could no longer remain silent; she stepped forward with a cold laugh:

"Governor Shang really knows how to pin accusations on people. You've been targeting the Ouyang family and the entire Hong Kong and mainland business community for a long time. Everyone knows that! You're just trying to find fault where none exists! What evidence do you have to slander us like this!"

Shang Junqi pointed to the three bound people beside him:

"This is living evidence!"

Mao Ying looked at the two people in front of her.

As expected, they were all the people sent to kill the Royal Gate team members tonight.

However, Mao Ying's eyes flashed with a threatening light as she looked at them:

"Do you know me? Why are you framing us?"

Both of these warriors were Black Wind Society assassins who had undergone long-term brainwashing, and they dared not identify Mao Ying at all.

Then the person who was tied up behind them suddenly stood up:

"You are a member of the Black Wind Society. Also, there is a female elder of the Black Wind Society hidden here, named Inoue Mieko!"

Upon hearing this, many people in the hall began to whisper among themselves.

Because the Black Wind Society is the largest gang in Ying Kingdom, these people had all heard of their ten elders.

These bigwigs are not ignorant people; they all know what colluding with the elders of the Black Wind Society means.

The Imperial Gate is responsible for protecting national security, so it's understandable that you would support cultivators. However, colluding with foreign criminal organizations is something they naturally cannot allow.

At this point, Mao Ying started to panic.

Unexpectedly, the other party called out Inoue Mieko's name directly.

He stared intently, then suddenly roared:

"He's not a member of the Black Wind Society at all!"

She pointed to the person who had just come out to correct her.

This person is definitely not from the Black Wind Society; he is a member of the Royal Gate in disguise.

Although the remaining assassins of the Black Wind Society were terrified of Cao Erdan and surrendered, they dared not come forward to identify him, even at the cost of their lives.

They were not only brainwashed, but their families were also in Japan, so they dared not betray them.

Cao Erdan then arranged for a member of the Royal Team to come out and identify the suspect.

The purpose was to provoke Mao Ying.

Mao Ying was indeed fooled and immediately exclaimed that this person was not a member of the Black Wind Society.

Shang Junqi sneered, "You say you're not from the Black Wind Society, then why did you recognize him as not being from the Black Wind Society? You know everyone in the Black Wind Society, don't you?"

Mao Ying was speechless for a moment.

The royal family's move was incredibly underhanded.

If you say that the person giving the testimony is not from the Black Wind Society, then you are admitting that you know people from the Black Wind Society.

If he doesn't admit he's an imposter, then everyone in the royal family and the room will believe that this kid is indeed from the Black Wind Society, and his words will be considered evidence.

Mao Ying angrily retorted, "You don't need to make baseless accusations. In short, your disturbance during our funeral is the greatest disrespect to the entire Hong Kong and mainland business community. You're just looking for trouble! Anyway, nobody knows anyone from the Black Wind Society. Just because you say they are doesn't mean they are."

At this moment, a person next to Shang Junqi stepped forward and took off his hat and mask:

"Mao Ying, if you don't know the Black Wind Society, then you know me, right?"

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that quite a few people recognized them.

This is Liu Jichang, the chief bodyguard under Ouyang Kang and also his top expert.

When Mao Ying saw him, she felt a chill in her heart.

Although he knew that Liu Jichang had been rescued at the dock, he was so badly injured that he thought he wouldn't last long and would die.

I never imagined that he would be standing right in front of me now, full of energy, and completely fine!

Mao Ying quickly retaliated:

"Hmph, no wonder the Imperial Clan has come looking for us. It turns out you, the traitor, have turned on us. You killed Mr. Ouyang and then fled to escape punishment..."

Shang Junqi stepped forward: "Alright, you said Mr. Ouyang was murdered. Well then, we not only need to search the area, but we also need to conduct an autopsy on Mr. Ouyang Kang!"

Mao Ying was quite flustered when she realized that she had made one mistake after another.

Just as Shang Junqi waved his hand and said "Search," a strange fragrance suddenly wafted over.

Having learned this lesson the hard way, Liu Jichang immediately realized:

"Someone is poisoning people, everyone be careful!"

The members of the royal family were already on guard; they immediately held their breath and put on their gas masks.

The tycoons' legs went weak the moment they smelled the fragrance, and they were terrified. They quickly covered their mouths and noses and ran outside.

A dozen or so Royal Guard members rushed up the stairs to search the area.

Just then, a beautiful woman in a red kimono appeared at the second-floor railing.

She gave a sly, seductive smile:

"You bastards, since you've come here to die, then I'll grant your wish!"

She leaped over the heads of the team members on the stairs.

A black sword in his hand emitted a sharp light, pointing directly at Liu Jichang:

"You got away last time, but you won't be so lucky this time!"
