The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 450 - The Mafia King Is Arrested

Unrest only grew tighter the following days in the Underworld and in the media. All hell got loose with a woman suddenly appearing one day and pressing prostitution charges against Wei.

Mo Huojin was under a lot of pressure to handle things. The media and people's outrage was worsening at coming to know that Wei had such an ugly side to him. He looked noble and an elegant businessman on the outside.

But to think that he forced women into prostitution and did shady businesses had shook the nation to its core. Jiang Weizhe had been handling the case until they would prove that the woman was lying and free Wei from this charge once and for all.

But one incident broke the last straw of all patience.

One of the gangs under Wei's command had ruthlessly killed an entire family in a car accident. It was a couple and their daughter returning from their trip. The cruel death of an innocent family triggered the rage of all the citizens. Not only that, many of the gangs were committing violent acts of robbery, extortion and murder in different regions.

Even Fu Renshu had his hands full. If he took care of one matter, another incident would pop out. It was beyond Ji Da Xia's hands too, to do so much damage control.

The news of Wei's act of pretending to be a hospitalized patient and escaping from jail resurfaced, and the fury grew even hotter than an erupting volcano. The media reporters were now in front of the Jiang villa in a mad rush to question Wei and his family.

"Jiang Wei! Come out! We want answers!"

"Is it true that your gang murdered an innocent family?"

"What about the woman who you forced into prostitution? How many such women have you trapped?"

"What do you have to say about the violence going on? Your men are terrorizing the common people, but you are not doing anything to stop them!"

"Don't hide, Jiang Wei!"

The atmosphere inside the villa was extremely tense. Old Madam was pacing back and forth in the hall.

"What is going on? How can the Underworld fall out of our control so suddenly? Why are these gangs going against us!?"

Her questions were met with silence.

As if realization dawned upon her, Old Madam gasped, "That Jiang Shan... just how many moles has he planted within us! It is impossible to get so many gangs into motion and make them go against Wei. I thought that with Xian Xue capture, we could bid us some time...But things have only gotten worse!"

Jiang Yubi and Jiang Ninghong helped her sit on the couch. "Mom, please stay calm. Your health will deteriorate."

Jiang Ruiling coldly said, "It is possible that Xian Xue had already brainwashed the gangs to go against cousin before. He has been working for us for years now. Even if he is captured, he has already sown the seeds of resistance in the gangs."

Jiang Weiyuan glanced at Shen Yang. "What do you have to say about this?"

He shook his head. "I want to give him the benefit of doubt. But when I checked the gangs who have carried out all the violence now, the only common link I found was that they were directly under Xian Xue's command. You know that we both handle and are in charge of different units. Most of the gangs are those who Xian Xue has been close to. They seem to be extremely loyal to him. That's why even after his retention, the gangs are not afraid of us. I also did everything I could to make him cough out everything about Jiang Shan and his plans, but even after all that torture, he refuses to confess anything."

Jiang Fai stomped his foot in anger. "That Jiang Shan! How did that bastard get such a loyal dog!?"

Jiang Li pressed his brows. "The more pressing matter is to drive these reporters away. They have been such a nuisance."

Jiang Lanying worriedly said, "I am afraid things would deteriorate if we forced them to leave. It doesn't seem like they will stay quiet anymore…"

One of the guards hastily came in and said, "Boss! The cops are here!"

Everybody stiffened.

"Boss, they are insisting to come inside…"

Wei, who had been silent all this time, said, "Let them."

Fu Renshu thought that it might be Mo Huojin and Xia Nuan, but a whole army of cops had swarmed the villa in just a few seconds.

The officer-in-charge stepped up. "Mr. Jiang Wei."

Wei calmly raised his brow and watched him. Even in that tense situation, he exuded an aura of grace and elegance.

Jiang Li sneered. "Yes, officer. Care to tell the reason you are here?"

"You know the reason very well, Mr. Li. Mr. Jiang Wei cannot hide any longer now neither can he pressurize to keep a lid on the cases anymore. Mr. Jiang Wei had escaped from prison and pretended to be a hospitalized patient. One woman is a witness to his prostitution scam and one of his gangs have brutally murdered an innocent family. I cannot even start on the vandalizing cases piling up in the station anymore. In the light of all these charges against you, we are here to make an arrest."

Jiang Yubi froze.

"You! You are here to arrest my son!?"

"Yes. A whole family has been murdered. Mr. Jiang Wei cannot escape an arrest now. We are here to do our job."

"It's all lies! Somebody is framing my son! Why are you here when you catch the real culprit!?"

Jiang Weizhe held her shoulders and softly said, "Calm down, Yubi. Don't cry."

The officer said, "The cases will, of course, be investigated in depth. But right now, Jiang Wei is our primary suspect. All allegations are against him. The gangs work under him. We have to take him with us."

There was a sharp silence.

Fu Renshu clenched his fist in anger.

That fucking Jiang Shan! Cornering us from all sides!

Even the board of directors at the Jiang Industries wanted Wei to step down from his CEO position, considering all the mess he had gotten himself into.

The officer brought the handcuffs out and said, "Mr. Jiang Wei.. You are hereby arrested for on the charges of illegal prostitution and murder."
