A few days later...
"These are the transfer procedures for the Zhan Group," Zhan Yang Yi said, but he still held onto the documents. After all, letting go now meant truly handing over the entire Zhan Group.
"Big Brother..." Zhan Yi Chen walked over and patted Zhan Yang Yi's shoulder. Only then did Zhan Yang Yi release his grip.
"Manager Lin, the Zhan Group will be temporarily in your care for this period," Wei Yu Meng said, her expression not much better.
Lin Shi took the documents and sighed, "Don't worry, I will do my best to arrange the Zhan Group properly."
They shook hands, and the matter was considered concluded. Since this was merely a temporary measure under the current circumstances, it was even more inappropriate to make the situation public. Thus, in the end, only they knew about it.
But as they watched Lin Shi take the items away, Zhan Yi Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.
"We've done everything we can. Do you really think Lin Shi will fall for it?"
Wei Yu Meng nodded, "I trust Si Han's judgment. Lin Shi arranged all of this, which shows how meticulous his mind is. It's precisely because of this that he's so confident in his plan."
Zhan Yang Yi added, "In fact, his plan almost succeeded. We still haven't found any way to prove Si Han's innocence."
That's right. Ever since Wei Yu Meng returned, she and Zhan Mo Han had set up a new trap. Since they couldn't find any proof to clear Ye Si Han's name, there was only one other way: bypass all the formalities and directly find the mastermind behind all of this. Once they caught the culprit red-handed, all suspicions would naturally dissipate. However, one aspect of this method was that Zhan Mo Han still needed to remain in the detention center, which was why Wei Yu Meng had taken on this task.
"Honestly, I was startled at first by your actions. I thought you were actually fooled by that old guy Lin Shi."
Recalling the scene at the time, Zhan Yang Yi found it eerie. Fortunately, he later noticed something was amiss. Because he trusted Zhan Yi Chen and Wei Yu Meng, he was able to see through it as merely a ruse orchestrated by Wei Yu Meng and the others.
"However, going forward, a significant part of it will depend on luck." Zhan Yi Chen said meaningfully.
At the same time, in the Pengcheng detention center.
"Did you hear? The Zhan Group announced a change in management today. The person in charge is now someone named Lin Shi."
"Lin Shi? I've never heard of him."
"Whether you've heard of him or not, this person is about to get rich. The Zhan Group is the largest enterprise here. How much money is that?"
"Hey, officers, is what you're saying true? Has the Zhan Group really changed hands?"
The speaker was Fan Jun, who had previously served as the project manager for Lin Shi under his arrangement.
"Yes, it's such a big event that we wouldn't dare to spread rumors."
"Thank you." Fan Jun looked delighted, as he knew his difficult days were about to end. He then applied to meet with Lin Shi.
"Sister-in-law, there's news from the police station. As expected, Fan Jun couldn't hold back and wants to see Lin Shi," Zhan Yi Chen said excitedly. However, this excitement didn't last long, as the next crucial step depended on whether Lin Shi would accept the meeting.
In fact, Zhan Mo Han had not only planned the entire operation with Wei Yu Meng, but even the police were involved. They had gone to great lengths to get the police to help them. However, if Lin Shi didn't show up, they could only wait for a longer opportunity.
Lin Shi was already getting impatient. He had long wanted to get out of the detention center. Moreover, this was not his fault; he wouldn't have agreed to it if Lin Shi hadn't given him assurances.
Finally, Lin Shi appeared before Fan Jun.
"You're finally here. I heard you got what you wanted. Shouldn't you get me out first?" Fan Jun got straight to the point, truly unable to wait any longer.
But Lin Shi's face was stern, "What's the rush? I've just taken over the Zhan Group. If I make a move now, I'll likely arouse suspicion."
"Then when can you help me get out?"
"At the earliest, a month from now."
"What? A month?" Fan Jun was angered. "You didn't tell me that before. You said you'd get me out immediately. Old man, don't forget, I have leverage over you!"
Hearing Fan Jun's words, Lin Shi was startled. This was the police station; if the police overheard, he would be finished. Fortunately, the police outside seemed not to have noticed the commotion inside.
"Keep your voice down. If this gets exposed, neither of us will have a good end!" Lin Shi warned.
Fan Jun refused to back down, "As long as you get me out, I can forget everything about how you made me do all this. Compared to you orchestrating all these schemes to trick the Zhan Group, my little threat shouldn't be a problem for you, right, Mr. Lin?"
"Alright, alright, I'll try to get you out as soon as I leave."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a police officer entered with several officers.
"Lin Shi, I believe we have sufficient reason to arrest you for the crime of illegally seizing property."
But Lin Shi looked innocent, "Officer, what do you mean? I haven't done anything illegal."
The officer, however, brought out a laptop. It was recording the conversation and audio from just moments ago.
"As long as you get me out, I can forget everything about how you made me do all this. Compared to you orchestrating all these schemes to trick the Zhan Group, my little threat shouldn't be a problem for you, right, Mr. Lin?"
This single sentence was enough to prove the potential crimes Lin Shi might have committed. Lin Shi was stunned. He couldn't believe it. Had he walked into a police trap from the moment he entered the station?
"Sister-in-law, we've caught him!" Zhan Yi Chen shouted.
Wei Yu Meng finally let out a sigh of relief, "Is it really over this time?"
Zhan Yang Yi also nodded, "I think so. But be prepared, Lin Shi will definitely try to see you again."
Wei Yu Meng took a deep breath, "I'm already prepared."
Zhan Yi Chen reviewed the entire incident and found it somewhat miraculous. Although Zhan Mo Han wasn't present, his plan had controlled every single step.
"Sister-in-law, why did you and Brother think they would definitely say it there?"
Wei Yu Meng explained, "At first, I also thought Lin Shi would be more vigilant at the police station, so we focused on Fan Jun..."
