Chapter 199: Surrender of a Criminal
In Basen City, the Weitai Group was surrounded by a lot of people, and the local reporters were all here.
A police car came from outside. Four or five police officers came out to maintain order.
The Weitai Group was the economic pillar of Basen City. It was also a large taxpayer in Basen city. Therefore, as the boss of the Weitai Group, Dennis, as long as it was not an excessive request, the local government would give him support and give him the green light.
“What happened? Do you know what Dennis announced?”
“I don’t know. He just received a notice. He didn’t say what exactly happened.”
“It’s so mysterious. It’s probably not a small matter. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many reporters and even the police.”
A few reporters discussed in low voices. The employees outside were also confused about the boss’s intentions.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in his fifties and dressed in a neat suit came to the front of the company under the escort of a few senior executives.
Looking at the crowded crowd below, he pushed up the gold-rimmed gla.s.ses on his eyes and raised his palm to press down on the air.
Immediately, the originally noisy sound became completely silent.
Ka Ka Ka!
The reporters took photos one after another.
Dennis did not look very well. His eyes were bloodshot and his eye sockets were deep, as if he had not slept for the whole night.
“h.e.l.lo, everyone. I am Dennis, the CEO of the Weitai Group. Today, I held a press conference to announce something to everyone. I have thought about this matter for the whole night. Now, I have thought it through. I am old and cannot stand the torment.”
He paused for a moment, and the crowd below suddenly started discussing and whispering.
“F*ck. What does that mean? Did he get some incurable disease?”
“It can’t be that he’s going bankrupt, right? F*ck, I spent all my money last month on the stock of his company. It can’t be that bad!”
“Listen to me. Something big is really going to happen. This is a hot topic.”
The editors-in-chief around them looked as if they had been injected with stimulants. They were so excited that their faces turned red and they stretched their necks.
The company’s higher-ups also looked at each other. They had countless ideas in their minds. There was a transfer of the company, the terminal illness of the CEO, and the collapse of Weitai. If something really happened, they had to make preparations early.
Dennis glanced at everyone, and his tone was earth-shattering. “May 16, 2000. Everyone may not remember this day, but I will never forget it. It was also on this day that I did something that I cannot forgive myself for. I killed someone.”
As soon as he said this, there was an uproar.
Murder?!
This had nothing to do with the chairman of a company. It was completely unrelated.
What kind of situation was this?!
Even if you kill people all the time, no one would be stupid enough to expose it. Could there be some unspeakable secret behind this?!
“F ck! This is a huge hot topic. The chairman of the Weitai group committed murder. What exactly is hidden behind this…”
“Looking at how refined he is, I didn’t expect him to be a murderer.”
“Hey, brother, you can’t tell a man’s heart from his face. People nowadays all know how to disguise themselves. It’s better to be careful.”
“The case that he mentioned, could it be the case of Henry, the richest man in Ba.s.son, who was once a sensation?”
“Friend, do you know the inside story?”
“Of course. Legend has it that Henry also started out in real estate. At that time, he already had tens of millions of family a.s.sets. But for some reason, his entire family was wiped out. The gold, silver, jewelry, and one million project funds in his house disappeared without a trace. The police investigated for three months, but there was no progress. And this case was also listed as an unsolved case. I didn’t expect the murderer to be this beast in front of me.”
“I estimate that he could do so much. The starting capital was one million from killing people. And I heard that all four members of Henry’s family were wiped out. The youngest daughter was only two years old. This demon is too cruel.”
Everyone present exploded.
The four or five policemen were caught off guard. They were originally following the orders of their leaders to maintain order, but the person they were protecting and guarding was just revealed to be a murderer.
At this moment, Dennis walked towards the policemen and spread his hands. “Arrest me!”
Two of the young policemen had blank looks on their faces as if they had not yet reacted to the dramatic scene. The middle-aged policeman next to him reacted quickly and took out his handcuffs from his back.
Snap!
The sound of snapping photos could be heard.
Soon, the surrounding reports caused a huge uproar on the internet.
“Under the pressure of the Death Inquisitor, Barson’s richest man, Dennis, chose to turn himself in. The unsolved murder case that had been sealed for more than 20 years surfaced, and it was announced to the world.”
“The murderer of the murder case turned out to be the richest man in Barson City, and he lived a carefree life for more than 20 years.”
“The murderer killed people in the local area and started from there. The police investigation immediately had no leads. The truth of the incident made people ponder deeply.”
“The Death Judge, the last justice in the world, the nemesis of evil, is the idol of all citizens.”
At this moment, Jack returned to his apartment, but the messages on his phone kept coming in. He opened it and glanced at it. He could not help but frown slightly. Surrender?!
He could also issue a death notice to those who surrendered.
But to these people, those who were still at large and carefree needed to receive a death notice.
Jack closed the S-rank file.
Because he knew that people had a herd mentality. Jack believed that from now on, Dennis wouldn’t be the last one. Those who stayed were those who had a glimmer of hope, or had a strong heart, and were extremely confident in themselves.
There were nearly a hundred people in the S-cla.s.s files.
He did not care how many people would choose to surrender.
However, even if they surrendered, Jack would not cross them off the list. If it was on a whim, a prison live broadcast would also be good.
Thinking of this, the corners of Jack’s mouth curled into an evil smile, like a devil walking on Earth.
He was the messenger of h.e.l.l.
Sure enough, just as Jack expected, the police stations of all continents welcomed a wave of surrender.
“4-11 Penrabe tragedy solved! Murderer surrenders!”
“8-02 Beiyang Tragedy solved! Murderer committed suicide! Left a suicide note!”
“3-24 Shangguan district tragedy solved!”
“11-11 Gabon tragedy solved!”
One by one, the news was pushed to the mobile phone. The major media outlets were extremely busy, and the netizens all over the country exploded.
“What’s going on today? So many people turned themselves in. Could it be that today is the day of confession? This is too ridiculous! Usually, I don’t see these people having a conscience. It’s strange!”
“Brother, did you just get Internet access at home? The Death Inquisitor is so popular, and you actually don’t know!”
“You can go to h.e.l.l. You don’t even know that the law enforcers of the night are helping the weak and upholding social justice. You’re not fit to be a human!”
“This is the thirteenth. I wonder how many people turned themselves in today. I guess the police stations are very busy now.”
The netizens were enthusiastic, but the police stations of the various states were very embarra.s.sed.
They should be happy that a major case had been solved. They could totally celebrate.
However, the one who solved the case was not them, but the Death Inquisitor. He was a wanted felon. This was a bit of a slap in the face.
The notifications crazily flooded in and continued until evening.
As night fell, everyone talked about the Death Inquisitor. People were in high spirits.
In one Twitter forum, a few forum owners were discussing whether the Death Inquisitor could be featured on a news broadcast.
