Just as Ian reached an agreement with the web companies, another missile was launched against them.
...
Yang Dao let out a whole bundle of tax evasion documents in the student forum. The fire was even faster this time. A lot of people were paying attention to it. It circulated throughout the city in half an hour. The impact was so high that the tax department swung into action.
Before sunrise, Lucius had his cash factories sealed and were under inquiry. His staff members were all nabbed as soon as the first ray of light appeared in the sky. Ian called Lucius immediately.
"Boss, manager Choi, and Manager Luxor. Both of them were arrested by the tax patrol. What do we do? Somehow the tax patrol got a wind of our tax evasion..." his words had not yet dropped and he heard a scream from the other end.
"WHAT?" Lucius could not believe what he just heard. He immediately followed through, "How is that possible, did you not destroy the paper trail?"
Ian replied, "I did destroy the paper trail. I told you that it can still be recovered from the network. But you did not believe me. I just checked, someone invaded the company servers last night. I don't know how much data they copied before the firewall shut them out."
These two did not know that Yang Dao deliberately left clues. He wanted them to look like fools and accuse him of theft. And this is what happened. Lucius disconnected his call with Ian and immediately called the police chief of Jade city.
He spoke as soon as the call was connected, "Hello, Chief Balon. Someone invaded my company server last night. I have a strong suspicion that it is Feng Yang Dao. Can you do something about it?"
The police chief has just woke up and was unaware of the quagmire Lucius was caught up in. Last night he did get to meet Yang Dao at the auction. He was hesitant to jump into this mess. Lucius judged his silence correctly and said, "Cheif, you don't have to worry about it. That boy said that his sister will stay out of it. You can act. Please arrest him. I will pay you 1 million carat coins."
The chief was a wage earner. He was tempted but suddenly he had a gut feeling that it was not worth it. If this matter was leaked then it will be a problem. He replied, "I need time to think." and then he disconnected the call.
Lucius sighed. He was aware that the police chief was a man in need. His mother needed money for a kidney transplant. He was almost assured that the chief will agree. As soon as the chief disconnected the call. His wife rushed at him with a word from his deputy.
She said, "Deputy Azjhan is here. It seems to be urgent."
The chief walked out of his room and found his deputy walking around in the living room. He asked, "Kris, what happened?"
The man replied, "Chief, you are awake. Do you know what happened in the morning?"
The chief shook his head, Kris replied, "Lucius Mcdouglas embezzled charity fund. He evaded taxes. These two things got the relevant departments in action and they arrested his managers."
The chief was surprised. He did not expect such a thing to happen. He said, "I just received a call from him. Thankfully, I did not agree, or I would have lost my job as well. What do you? Is that all?"
The deputy shook his head, "This time this guy is done for. No one is siding with him. The tax department is waiting for an arrest and search warrant but the depart is slow. They first need to extract a confession from the employees."
The two people were discussing how the police force should react to this issue. Suddenly the chief's phone buzzed. He picked it up. What he saw made his face pale. On his screen were documents and videos proving that Lucius Mcdouglas, was involved in human trafficking, forced prostitution, black mail. The conversations were all recorded by Ian as a backup plan.
Yang Dao researched thoroughly. He invaded the company server then he invaded the high designated staff members and TADA. He did not sleep for the whole night but his mnd was still sharp. He made two strikes on Lucius, now the third one is also made. With this, Lucius will go down.
The chief acted quickly and got himself an arrest warrant. He cooperated with the Tax Patrol. That was it. Soon, the warrants were all sorted and the force departed to nab the culprit before he has time to pull some trick on them.
...
The mansion where Lucuis resided was very luxurious. Normal people were not allowed to enter the premises. The guard on the duty saw a police car appearing, he stopped them with his raised hand.
The Chief stepped out of the car himself. He said, "We have an arrest warrant named for your master. Also, before you try to stop us, let me tell you that the charges are serious to have him shot to death ten times over. If you people tried to delay, I won't mind relieving you of your limbs to nab this bastard."
With that said, he unstrapped the gun holster, with his hand resting on the grip of the gun. This showed his stance and resolve. He was really ready to shoot the security guy to exercise the law. The security guards all exchanged a glance and they let them pass. They were all aware that a job can be found again but life, nay ay.
The police surrounded the whole mansion and even deployed a chopper to make sure that this guy does not run away. Cheif Balon raaped on the door. After a few seconds a servant opened the door. It was a lady, she was surprised to see the police to be visiting them so early in the morning and also was wondering why the security did not inform them.
She asked, "How may I help you officer?"
Chief Balon said, "Miss, please call over Lucius Mcdouglas. We have an arrest warrant for him. I hope you co-operate with us." although his words were calm, his voice carried a chill.
The maid was shocked to hear what she was just told. She could not process what just happened. The chief glanced at a female cop behind him, the lady in the uniform nodded and then she gently guided the maid to the side. The police team entered the house and after ten minutes Lucius was dragged wearing an underwear.
The poor fucked happened to be shitting. The cops directly broke the door of the toilet. They first made fun of his shriveled peanut. Then they dragged him in a underwear. The guy was in a shock. He never imagined that Yang Dao even retrieved some evidence that was not even supposed to exist.
Yang Dao did not give him any chance. It was like a heavenly tribulation. The lightning streaks kept landing on him until he was turned to ashes. First, his image was crushed. Second, his money was seized. Third, his companions left him alone. Now he had nothing. In one night, he fell from cloud 7 to the seventh hell.
He sat there listless as the police shoved him inside a van. He saw his assistant was also there but he was looking fresh as if he was about to travel. Lucius understood, his assistant had planned to elope and leave him alone in this crisis. But he did not rebuke these actions after all he would have done the same.
...
The boy who did all this was rubbing his eyes and yawning in leisure. Feng Yun sat behind him the whole night. She said, "Young Master, are you sleepy? Should I call your teacher to ask for a leave?"
Yang Dao shook his head and said, "Sister Yun, today is Sunday. Unlike you, the workaholic person, others get a rest day." the boy let out a chuckle at the end.
Feng Yun was surprised and she shook her head as she chuckled along with Yang Dao, "Yes, I have lost the concept of work day and rest day."
Yang Dao said, "How about we both ride bikes today? We can go to some village farms and have fun. I heard from Captain Thomas, there is a village farm on the outskirts of the city. They cook barbeque and host people on Sunday. How about it? Should we go?"
Feng Yun smiled and said, "Anything you want, Young Master."
...
While the two planned a outing. The news headlines in the whole city, set off a wave among the high society. They all knew that Yang Dao had a intersection with Lucius. They all contacted the big guys in the circle, Goldberg and such. The five former high table members told them how Yang Dao was not unreasonable but a good human being and all.
The whole circle began to move and settle old accounts. They wanted to avoid ending up like Lucius McDouglas.
