After much thought, Chen Feng found a slight clue.
A building collapse might be due to negligence or shoddy construction.
Three buildings collapsing was definitely not a simple matter of negligence or shoddy construction.
In terms of political maneuvering, it was absolutely intentional.
Yes, thinking of it this way, the idea became instantly clear.
Frankly speaking, it was because the three of them were about to return to the leadership team of Mingshan City.
The leaders of Mingshan City feared their return, which would lead to their own demotions, so they resorted to this tactic of killing with a borrowed knife.
If it were ordinary power struggles, Chen Feng would not have pursued it.
In the political arena, power struggles were too common; pursuing every instance would be exhausting.
However, Chen Feng decided that this power struggle absolutely had to be investigated because its nature was too egregious.
For the sake of power, they had lost all conscience.
Once the three buildings were put into use, how many people would die?
These people, who were so reckless and disregarded human lives for power, must be held strictly accountable.
Now, the problem was, the developer wasn't a fool. Why would he willingly go to jail for life to cooperate with the Mingshan City leadership?
To understand this, Chen Feng specifically went to the detention center to find the developer.
"You are the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company?"
Chen Feng was stunned.
The middle-aged man before him did not look like a boss at all.
"Yes, I am the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company, Wang Dafeng."
Wang Dafeng admitted it directly without pretense.
"You are not."
Chen Feng said deliberately.
"What makes you say I'm not the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company? I am the legal representative on the company's license, which can be checked online."
Wang Dafeng argued vehemently.
Looking at Wang Dafeng's extremely defensive expression, Chen Feng became even more certain that Wang Dafeng was definitely not the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company.
The reason was simple: if Wang Dafeng were truly the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company, he would have no reason to be so agitated.
The truth cannot be faked, and falsehoods cannot be made true; there was no need to be agitated.
But Wang Dafeng was agitated.
The reason Wang Dafeng was agitated was, frankly, he feared being exposed as a fake.
At this point, everything became clear.
Frankly speaking, the real boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company had hired a scapegoat with money to avoid imprisonment.
A million or ten million yuan wouldn't move the real boss of Xiangyu Company to be a scapegoat.
However, a million or ten million yuan could definitely persuade a fake Xiangyu Company boss to be a scapegoat.
The common people were too hard-pressed; a hundred yuan could last them several days.
For money, they would do anything except break the law.
"Wang Dafeng, do you know that for the collapse of the three buildings of Xiangyu Real Estate Company this time, you will definitely be sentenced to life imprisonment. At your current age, even with a reduced sentence, you would still die in prison."
Chen Feng said with a solemn expression.
"I know, but what can be done? I am the boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company, and it's impossible for me not to go to jail."
Wang Dafeng said calmly.
Chen Feng was stunned.
This was interesting; there were actually people in the world who weren't afraid of life imprisonment.
Even if one were crazy about money, they wouldn't be unafraid of life imprisonment.
It was simple: if you had the money but had to spend your life in prison, no one would make such a losing deal.
There was only one possibility: the man before him was ill, and it was a terminal illness.
Only when people are diagnosed with a terminal illness do they become able to accept things that others cannot.
"Give me your hand."
Chen Feng said directly without further ado.
"Why should I show you my hand?"
Wang Dafeng was stunned.
"If you were the real boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company, what would you be afraid of showing me your hand for? Unless you are the fake boss of Xiangyu Company."
Chen Feng deliberately provoked him.
"Look then, what am I afraid of? I am the real boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company."
Wang Dafeng was stubborn.
At the same time, he was filled with doubt.
What was this man in front of him up to?
Why was he looking at his hand for no reason?
With a mix of belief and doubt, Wang Dafeng extended his hand to Chen Feng.
After a brief examination, Chen Feng instantly understood what was going on.
Wang Dafeng had throat cancer, and it was an early-stage cancer that could be cured.
The cancers with the highest mortality rates were lung cancer, liver cancer, and stomach cancer. Other cancers could be easily cured with special medication, especially early-stage cancer.
"Wang Dafeng, you only have simple early-stage throat cancer and can be saved. Why are you giving up on yourself and willingly becoming a scapegoat for money?"
Chen Feng stated his purpose directly.
"How did you know I have throat cancer?"
Wang Dafeng was stunned again.
"I understand Chinese traditional medicine, so I did a brief examination and knew you had early-stage throat cancer."
Chen Feng did not hide his skill.
"That's right, I have early-stage throat cancer. But that still doesn't change the fact that I am the real boss of Xiangyu Real Estate Company."
A hint of light flashed in Wang Dafeng's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
"Wang Dafeng, don't worry, I can not only cure your throat cancer, but I can also cure your entire family's throat cancer."
Chen Feng thought for a moment and said with a serious expression.
"You… you… how do you know my whole family has throat cancer?"
Wang Dafeng asked with utter astonishment.
"Generally speaking, cancer has a strong hereditary component. I specifically looked at your throat cancer; it's not ordinary throat cancer, but caused by a genetic defect, congenital throat cancer. Congenital throat cancer is one hundred percent hereditary."
Chen Feng explained word by word.
"Aren't congenital throat cancer and acquired throat cancer both throat cancer? How did you differentiate them?"
The hint of light in Wang Dafeng's eyes returned.
"It's simple. The vitality and spirit of congenital cancer patients are similar to normal people. Because it's congenital, the throat cancer cells have been with you since childhood. Therefore, you don't have the obvious vitality and spirit of cancer patients. However, if you have acquired cancer, because you didn't have throat cancer cells in your body before, and suddenly you do, your entire vitality and spirit will collapse."
Chen Feng explained patiently.
"Chen Feng, why did you come to talk to me about this?"
Wang Dafeng no longer resisted.
"I don't want the real culprits to get away with it."
Chen Feng replied directly.
"But I've already been treated as the culprit and sent to the detention center. Is there still any room for maneuver?"
Wang Dafeng asked with concern.
"If someone else were handling this matter, your situation would be a done deal. But fortunately, you've met me. I can help you leave the detention center, and I can also cure you and your family's throat cancer."
Chen Feng explained with a serious expression.
"Can I trust you?"
Wang Dafeng asked with excitement.
"You must trust me. Otherwise, even if you get all this money, your whole family will still die. Although throat cancer can be cured, you still need to find a good hospital. At ordinary hospitals, they only care about how to squeeze the money out of your hands. As for whether the cancer can be cured, they don't care. This is a common problem with Chinese hospitals right now. Once a cancer patient enters a hospital, most hospitals' standard practice is to use the most expensive foreign drugs… It is precisely because of this that many cancer patients, after entering the hospital, end up spending all their money and dying."
Chen Feng continued to persuade him with a serious expression.
Wang Dafeng was convinced.
Yes, that was the reality.
"Chen Feng, tell me, how should I get out of the detention center?"
Wang Dafeng asked expectantly.
