"Brother Ye, this matter is quite troublesome. I don't want you to be dragged into it. Those people are not just one or two. They are powerful and their power is far beyond your imagination."

Only Zheng Ganmei himself knew that what he had offended this time was not just one person, but a huge network of corrupt forces connected together.

This is why even the newspaper that had always supported him chose to stab him in the back this time.

The gangsters openly cut the tendons of his hands and feet. He called the police, but they did not investigate and the newspaper simply suspended him.

In Zheng Ganmei's opinion, Lu Ye is simply not someone who can be fought against by so many powerful departments.

So when faced with Lu Ye's support, Zheng Ganmei did not want to accept it.

He was afraid of involving Lu Ye again.

Seeing Zheng Ganmei so worried, Lu Ye became even more curious.

"What's the matter? Are you afraid that I can't defeat them and get myself into trouble?"

"Didn't I just say that if I really felt I couldn't beat them, I definitely wouldn't force my way in."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Tell me, who did you offend?" Lu Ye once again gave Zheng Ganmei a reassurance.

Seeing that Lu Ye had said so, Zheng Ganmei slowly spoke.

"I received a tip from an informant that a new entertainment city has opened on Railway Street. This entertainment city has a wide range of businesses, including dance halls, karaoke halls, and prostitutes."

The word "three escorts" is still a relatively new word at present.

However, Lu Ye was not unfamiliar with it. "Three companions" was a new term that referred to hostesses, meaning to accompany people to eat, drink and sleep together.

Lu Ye suddenly remembered that he once passed by the entertainment city that Zheng Ganmei mentioned while driving.

At that time, he took a few more glances at it and felt it was quite strange.

"If they can run an entertainment city, they must have someone to protect them. But if that's all, there's nothing to investigate, right?" Lu Ye said.

Foot massage, business K, and maritime atmosphere group, these things have become commonplace in later generations. If someone puts this in a newspaper, some people might think that there is nothing to report in the newspaper.

"Of course it's more than that."

Zheng Ganmei continued, "My informant told me that while that entertainment city is ostensibly an entertainment venue, it's actually also operating a casino."

"Not only do they have a casino, but there's also a room inside for officials to gamble."

After hearing this, Lu Ye also realized that this entertainment city was not simple.

They operated casinos and set up special gambling halls for officials to gamble.

The person who can accomplish this is definitely not a simple person!

At this moment, Lu Ye also felt the unusualness of the other party's power.

At the same time, Lu Ye also understood that faced with such revelations, Zheng Ganmei would definitely investigate given her character.

"Did you sneak in?" Lu Ye asked.

Zheng Ganmei shook her head: "I did think about it, but I didn't succeed."

"That place is extremely heavily guarded. I only managed to get into their peripheral casino and never even entered the inner hall."

"Those people were very careful. They went in and out to gamble. Everyone wore a mask, so you couldn't see their faces at all."

"I spent half a month squatting in the casino before I spotted an official."

"Is that the district chief?" Lu Ye asked.

Zheng Ganmei nodded: "Yes, Han Yuntao, the deputy mayor of Nancheng District!"

When mentioning the name Han Yuntao, Zheng Ganmei's tone was clearly filled with hatred.

"I was peeing in the parking lot of the entertainment city that day when I happened to see Han Yuntao and another person walking out. Han Yuntao was wearing a mask and carrying a thick bag. Just as he took off the mask, I saw his face and recognized him."

"and then."

Lu Ye continued to listen.

"Then I began to secretly investigate Han Yuntao, and I actually found quite a few problems."

"I discovered that Han Yuntao not only likes gambling, but he's also a fucking lecher. He even has several women outside."

"And the man who appeared at the entertainment city with Han Yuntao that day, I also investigated. His name is Cai Quan. He's just a small clerk, but he was able to be so close to Han Yuntao."

When Lu Ye heard the name Cai Quan, his expression was stunned.

He didn't know Han Yuntao, but he knew Cai Quan.

The first time Lu Ye met Cai Quan was at a dinner party that Su Yunjie invited him to. At that time, he felt that Cai Quan was too scheming.

The result was just as Lu Ye had guessed. This guy actually wanted to set a trap for Su Yunjie.

Fortunately, he discovered it early, and Su Yunjie was not stupid enough, so he did not fall into the trap.

I thought we would never meet again, but I didn't expect to hear this person's name here again.

In the past, Lu Ye only thought that Cai Quan was very brave and scheming.

However, he didn't expect that he still underestimated Cai Quan.

"Go on." Lu Ye's expression also became more serious.

"Later I discovered that the real owner of this entertainment city wasn't just the guy called Brother Tian. Cai Quan was also the boss."

"Those officials and factory leaders were basically all led into the casino by Cai Quan."

"That Tian Ge is only responsible for managing the entertainment city. The other two are responsible for corrupting officials and making money from the business."

"It's also my own fault for being careless."

"I was too anxious."

"On the day of the accident, I was originally following Han Yuntao. I followed him into the entertainment city. In a hurry, I wanted to take a picture of Han Yuntao entering the casino."

"But I didn't expect that during the filming, I was discovered by the person in charge of watching the scene."

"They smashed my camera and burned the papers inside."

"And made me what I am now."

Speaking of this, Zheng Ganmei felt sad.

He did not regret what he had done. What made him feel sad was that he chose to call the police afterwards, but the entertainment city was not left with anything.

The other party has never even closed down.

There was no impact at all.

This can only mean one thing: the police officers who investigated the case never went to the entertainment venue to investigate from the beginning to the end.

There is no way to appeal, which is why Zheng Ganmei feels so miserable.

"Brother Ye, this matter is not that simple. There are more than one or two forces behind Cai Quan and Han Yuntao. I appreciate your kindness, but I really don't want you to take risks because of me."

"Don't worry, once I recover from my injuries, I will definitely continue to fight them."

"Even if I'm suspended, so what? Even if I have to write a big-character poster, I'm going to expose these bastards!"

Zheng Ganmei finally regained some fighting spirit and said with gritted teeth.

Not every journalist has the courage of Zheng Ganmei.

On the contrary, Lu Ye has seen too many unscrupulous journalists who deliberately distort facts and praise bad people for financial gain.

There are also those who, in order to get a little traffic, do no investigation at all and report false and misleading news.

However, those journalists who are truly brave enough to expose the darkness of society often suffer various attacks.

Lu Ye is not a judge, but he sincerely admires Zheng Ganmei's courage.

Society needs such brave people, and the journalism industry needs such brave people even more.

"Ganmei, you are braver than I thought."

"I know you're doing this for my own good. You're worried that something might happen to me."

"But we're friends, and I want to make a contribution to this glorious cause. It's not for the sake of so-called justice or fairness, I just can't stand seeing my friend being bullied."
