Chapter 1138: Revolution (B)Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
While Yang Ming and Wang Xiaoyan were chatting, a knock came at the door suddenly. Yang Ming said, “Please, come in.”
“Yang Ming, a police officer named Holzer in the police station called and asked Miss Shu Ya to assist in the investigation. Listening to his words, it sounds like Maligeben and Savin Geese are victims…” Xu Li came in and repeated the contents of the previous phone conversation to Yang Ming.
“Hmph hmph, it’s normal. The police chief has changed. Norton was dismissed. Now he was replaced by Mark Vader’s cronies. It is normal for them to do this.” Yang Ming was familiar with Old Buffon’s plan, so he didn’t feel puzzled when he heard Xu Li say that the police station called to say this.
“What should I do now?” Xu Li asked.
“Tell them Shu Ya’s current address. If they have the ability, let them send people to catch her!” Yang Ming snorted and said disdainfully.
“Okay!” Xu Li also faintly guessed the power represented by Old Buffon, because on the way, the security outside and the manor’s land were enough to illustrate the outstanding status of Old Buffon.
Therefore, since Yang Ming said this, it was confirmed that the police did not dare to break in and make an arrest. So, she returned to the room and picked up the phone, “Police Officer Holzer, are you still there?”
“I am here. What did Miss Shu Ya say?” Holzer asked.
“Miss Shu Ya is still very weak. If you really need it, send someone to come over. Our address is…” Xu Li conveyed the address according to Yang Ming’s instruction.
Holzer did not expect Shu Ya to be so forthright; she even gave them the address. Holzer quickly gathered people and rushed to this address.
“Leader, why are there so few people here? Are we in the wrong place?” One of Holzer’s men who was driving the car asked, confused, “We’ve reached the suburbs.”
“Yes, the address is written like this. It’s not far ahead, and the satellite navigation system will definitely be not wrong,” said Holzer.
“Oh, okay!” Seeing Holzer had confirmed it, the driver stopped asking more questions and continued to drive the car.
When the car passed through many small roads and entered a manor, Holzer felt that something was wrong. “Where is this? How is it that I’ve never been here before?”
“Leader, I have long felt it strange. It seems that it is no longer within the scope of our city.” The driver of the car said.
“Motherf*cker, could she have lied to me?” Holzer cursed. “Wait for me to call again and ask!”
“Stop the car!” A group of fully armed people suddenly appeared, and stopped in front of Holzer’s car! They shocked Holzer and the others.
The driver had to stop the car in front of the roadblock, and a gun was suddenly pointing at him. “Don’t move. Get off the car!”
Holzer was shocked. I am a policeman. Some people actually dare to point the gun at us. This is a provocation. He shouted immediately, “We are policemen. Put down all your guns!”
“I don’t care who you are!” said the leader of the group of fully armed people. “This is already private territory. You are trespassing into private property. Now you must go back with us to be investigated!”
“We are the police. You have no right to arrest us!” When he saw this group of people going to get in the car to make an arrest, Holzer suddenly was anxious and shouted.
“We are the XXX Army. We have been ordered by the president to protect the safety of the Buffon family. We have the right to investigate anyone who trespasses!” said the fully armed leader.
“Ah?” Holzer immediately was dazed. Although he was a small police officer at the bottom, he also heard of the name of the Buffon Family. This was a family of high gods. Personnel at the bottom like him could not be in contact with them. He couldn’t imagine that he trespassed onto the territory of the Buffon Family. Moreover, these people were the soldiers authorized by the president. Wasn’t it a very easy thing for them to arrest and investigate Holzer?
“Take them away!” The armed leader did not talk nonsense with Holzer and waved his hand directly, ordering his men to arrest Holzer and the others.
Holzer cursed in his heart, Did Xu Li lie to me? How did I break into the territory of the Buffon Family? This is great. I can’t see Shu Ya, but I am arrested by the stationed army.
Holzer felt very wronged. He wanted to call Mark Vader to talk about it, but the communication equipment was helplessly collected by others. He could only follow others for interrogation.
In the hospital, Mark Vader saw his son, Maligeben, who was beaten until he almost couldn’t be recognized. He saw that Maligeben’s handsome face had been completely disfigured; his teeth were all knocked out; his eyes and the bridge of his nose were also all fractured.
“From the current state of the patient, recovery is no problem, but his face may be left with some ugly scars!” The doctor said to Mark Vader, “Many bones on the face are broken, and it is also troublesome to do plastic surgery.”
Mark Vader hated the criminal who hurt Maligeben. He wanted to smash him to pieces! But at this moment, he was more concerned about whether Maligeben could recover. “No matter how much I have to spend, you must return my son to normal.”
“We will try!” The doctor nodded.
What Mark Vader didn’t know was that this city’s best hospital was actually one of the hospitals under the Buffon family-owned medical group… but even if he knew, he wouldn’t think much. After all, he still didn’t know that the person he provoked was related to Old Buffon.
On the night of the compassionate release, an accident happened. Both Maligeben and Savin Geese died in the hospital because of medical malpractice!
After learning the news, Mark Vader rushed to the hospital overnight. He was a bit physically and mentally exhausted. They were fine during the day. How could they just die at night? Moreover, the injuries were all external injuries; the internal organs were not damaged at all. There was no need to do surgery. How can they just die like that?
When Mark Vader arrived at the hospital, he found that the hospital that should be very calm was swamped by a lot of media reporters out of nowhere! This made Mark Vader feel very incredulous because the hospital would generally handle this kind of thing in a low-key manner. How could it attract so many reporters? The hospital should know that the bigger the trouble, the more harm it would bring to the hospital!
When everyone knew that this hospital had a case of medical malpractice, who would dare to come here to see a doctor? Although it was strange, Mark Vader’s brain had no time to think about it! All he had left was anger. His son was killed by a doctor, and he wouldn’t easily let go!
Mark Vader came out from his car. After he had just walked two steps, he was surrounded by reporters. Although Mark Vader was very intolerant, in front of the reporters, he had to maintain his good public image. He barely stood still and answered, “It’s so late. Do you have anything?”
“Mayor Mark Vader, I am a reporter for XX Weekly. I heard that your son died of medical malpractice when he was being treated in this hospital. Is this true?” This was a question asked by a very authoritative weekly magazine reporter.
“Yes, so I came over during the night. But what I want to say is that whether the person who has died from medical malpractice is my son or not, I will let the medical management department intervene in the investigation to be fair to the deceased.” Mayor Mark Vader replied.
“Mayor Mark Vader, I am a reporter for the XX Evening News. I heard that the son of the lieutenant governor also died in this medical malpractice like your son. Is there any connection between this?” This was a question asked by the local media reporter. This question made Mark Vader somewhat annoyed. Why are you butting in?
“They were hospitalized together after being assaulted by a mob. I don’t know if there is any connection. Because I am just like you, I just arrived here. I don’t know anything else!” said Mark Vader.
“Is it like this? Mayor Mark Vader, I heard that your son and Savin Geese were not assaulted by thugs, but because of their intention to molest an international celebrity, Shu Ya, they were injured by a brave man!” The speaker was also a local newspaper reporter, but this newspaper belonged to the media group where Locklaring was located. Although the words that this reporter asked were sharper than those before, Mark Vader had no other way. After all, Locklaring had always not been harmonious and had been fighting for a long time with him. How could his people easily let him go under such circumstances?
“That didn’t happen.” Mark Vader denied, “This is a rumor! Someone with ulterior motives wants to make some trouble for me, so there is such a rumor!”
“Is it? I don’t think so!” The reporter continued, “We have learned that Police Chief Norton was dismissed from office because of justly law enforcement. Instead, the newly appointed Police Chief Croft made the suspects, your son and Savin Geese, become victims, and sent them to the hospital…”
“This is slander; naked slander!” Mark Vader was anxious. He didn’t understand why these reporters were not going to investigate the medical malpractice in the hospital. Instead, they pointed the mic at him!
Under the instigation of the reporter, several relatively free online media reporters also began to show their edge. “According to insiders at the police station, the police station released the suspects because of the intervention of you, Mayor Mark Vader. Is that the case?”
“That is to say, this thing is entirely because of you. If you didn’t insist on releasing your son and Savin Geese, they would not be in the hospital, and then there would be no medical malpractice. Right?”
“This is equivalent to saying that your son died under your love. This should not be wrong, right?”
“This is a punishment from God. If a person did enough bad things, he would be punished in the end!”
Mark Vader was going crazy! He didn’t understand how these inside stories were spread out, and how these reporters knew, but what he realized was that once the news was published tomorrow on the newspapers and the Internet, he would soon have to step down as mayor!
Droplets of sweat the size of beans fell, and Mark Vader had to wave his hand. “I am anxious to see my son’s situation. Anything else will be discussed later!”
“Then you admitted the facts just now?” The reporter said without letting him go.
Mark Vader ignored these reporters and walked quickly to the hospital. So, the reporters recorded it on their books that Mayor Mark Vader expressed acquiescence to the above facts.
Seeing his son lying in the cold morgue, Mark Vader only felt like he was going crazy!* Am I really wrong? Was this all caused by me?*
At the same time, the lieutenant governor was also on the way to the hospital. Unfortunately, like Mark Vader previously, he was surrounded by a group of reporters at the hospital entrance and inundated with similar questions.
It’s just that the questions became “I would like to ask Mr. Lieutenant Governor; did you instruct Mayor Mark Vader to do this…” This made the lieutenant governor very annoyed.
“Lieutenant Governor, what should I do now?” Seeing the lieutenant governor in the morgue, Mark Vader seemed as if he saw a life-saving straw and asked quickly.
“Hmph!” Lieutenant Governor was also very annoyed at Mark Vader. His son died in the hospital inexplicably. If Maligeben did not die together, he would have shredded Mark Vader to pieces. “What can I do? Now the first task is to clarify the public opinion and then investigate the cause of the medical malpractice!”
“But those reporters…” Mark Vader was very worried about this. After all, these bad things were all done by him. He was the specific operator! The lieutenant governor only gave some suggestions about his affairs.
“I will look for some relationship again!” The lieutenant governor was also immersed in the pain of grief, but some things had to be dealt with. Moreover, he was better than Mark Vader. At least, he had three sons; Mark Vader had only one son!
Unfortunately, on the front page of many newspapers on the next day, and even the headlines on the front page of the Internet portal showed news reports that Mark Vader intervened with justice, and it led to the death of his son.
Mark Vader looked at the newspapers and web pages in the office, and he almost had a heart attack and went to the hospital. At this time, the phone rang at the wrong time.
“Croft, do you have anything?” Mark Vader picked up the phone impatiently.
“Boss, things have gone wrong this time. You have to save me. I have only been bureau chief for a day; I don’t want to step down immediately! There are still many children in my family waiting for me to support. I can’t live without work. Can you please help me? I can work as an ordinary police officer…” Croft was not a capable man. He did nothing other than boot-licking. When he saw the newspaper report, he knew that he was finished this time, so he quickly called his backer, Mark Vader.
He didn’t think that at this time, his backer, Mark Vader, was already powerless to protect himself. How could Mark Vader have the time to care about him? Sure enough, Mark Vader brushed him off. “Okay, I got it. It’s fine!”
“That’s good; that’s really good…” As for Mark Vader, Croft could only trust blindly.
Mark Vader still had some fantasies initially, but now, the pressure from the outside world was getting bigger and bigger. Many citizens had called the city government to question the authenticity of Mark Vader. Many of them who originally voted for Mark Vader shouted that they were tricked, and spontaneously set up a forum on the Internet to crusade against Mark Vader’s series of practices!
Under pressure, Mark Vader had to submit his resignation. He couldn’t continue to be mayor. Mark Vader’s resignation was passed in parliament, and the vote decided that Locklaring would be the acting mayor for this period.
Croft also stepped down with him. His dream of becoming a police officer was not realized. He was taken away with Mark Vader for investigation. Norton was once again the police chief.
All of this took less than a day to settle after many twists and turns.
Although Yang Ming didn’t know much about politics, it was not hard to see that these series of changes were all incited by Old Buffon. Old Buffon just hinted at it, and all his men helped settle it.
At the same time, the lieutenant governor also stepped down, but whoever replaced him was not Yang Ming’s concern. But without thinking about it, it must be Old Buffon’s men.
Mark Vader’s family was considered to be ruined. Not only did he lose his position of mayor, but his son also died. However, he had no choice. When he later heard people suggest that he offended the Buffon family, Mark Vader could only accept his fate.
At this time, Shu Ya was already awake. She was lying in bed watching the news on TV. Yang Ming was with her at the moment. Wang Xiaoyan had already tactfully left.
“Those who wanted to harm you have gotten the retribution they deserve.” Yang Ming pointed to the TV screen.
“Ah, Maligeben and Savin Geese both died from medical malpractice?” Su Ya’s eyes widened, watching the news report incredulously, “They are both dead?”
“Why do I have to keep them alive?” Yang Ming said indifferently, “I will not let go of those who hurt you.”
“Here… you also have power?” Su Ya was not stupid. Since Maligeben and Savin Geese died of accidents in medical malpractice instead of being assassinated, it proved that Yang Ming was also powerful here. Otherwise, it was impossible to get this result.
And from the fact that both of their fathers resigned, Yang Ming’s power was not small!
“Consider that there is some. When you go to another place for a concert in the future, let me know first. I will arrange it for you so that you won’t be bullied by others. You were also being asked to accompany people to drink; you were really mistreated!” Yang Ming held Shu Ya’s little hand and said, “If this time, I was not there, and something happened to you, what should I do?”
Su Ya was also afraid after that. This was also the first time she held an international concert. She used to be in the sphere of her father’s power, so there were no accidents. This time, Su Ya also understood that it was tough to be a celebrity.
