“You should be in the police station!” Jones frowned. “What’s wrong with Erte!?”

Just as she said that, Jones’s phone rang. She picked up the phone and heard an anxious voice from the other end. “Senator Jones, I’m sorry to disturb you, but there’s something I have to report to you. For some reason, your nude photos were posted on your social network… Also, your husband is on the way to the Senate. He wants to know who the other naked man in the room is.”

Jones was instantly dumbfounded. She quickly turned on her phone and checked her social media account. Indeed, more than ten compromising photos of her had been posted on the platform! And those photos had all been secretly hidden by her!

At the same time, a hacker looked at his computer in a daze and said, “Oh my god, even a simple password guess was enough to crack the encryption? This… Is God making me punish this old woman? Hehe, old woman, enjoy this feast!”

Jones was truly stunned. She immediately tried to delete the content on her phone, but unfortunately, she discovered that the phone had frozen! As for forcefully shutting it down and rebooting it? When she tried to do that, her phone began to heat up as it became hotter and hotter…

Jones quickly threw her phone aside. With a bang, the phone exploded and turned into a ball of fire.

Jones was on the brink of tears. She knew that it was over, everything was over. Her social account had been tied to her phone number. Without her SIM card, she wouldn’t be able to log in on her other phones, and she would not be able to delete the photos from her account. By the time her replacement SIM card was ready, it would be too late.

However, Jones still charged out like she had gone mad. After running a few steps, she fell to the ground and hurt her head. Despite her bleeding head, she ignored everything. Fangzheng didn’t matter at all. Once her reputation was tarnished, she would lose everything she had. So what if she dealt with him? She wouldn’t get anything out of it and would instead become a laughing stock!

Just as Jones ran to the door, she bumped into Erte. Unfortunately, she didn’t have time to bother with him and continued running. When she reached the entrance, a car braked to a halt. The door opened, and an angry man got out. He glared at Jones with bloodshot eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, “I need an explanation!”

Then Jones was dragged into the car. The car drove away to some unknown location.

At the same time, Fionn received a call from the police that confirmed Jones’s matter. Erte heard everything clearly from the side and immediately felt a chill run down his spine. When he looked at Fangzheng again, he felt goosebumps all over. Who hadn’t done anything against their conscience before? If his secrets were exposed…

With this in mind, Erte’s entire body turned cold. He hurriedly left the Senate and said to Fionn, “You handle this. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”

Erte was truly afraid. The consecutive events had already explained one thing to him: this monk really had divine powers! He could not afford to offend such a person.

Not only did he not want to offend him, he even wanted to draw a clear line with him. It would be even better if they could soothe their relationship.

When Fionn saw that Erte was about to run away, he wanted to run too.

However, someone called out to him.

Erte was a member of the Rosius and not part of the government. However, Fionn was part of the police force, so when the senators saw him, they naturally didn’t let him off. They cried out to him to arrest Fangzheng.

Fionn sobbed and said, “Can I not do it?”

“Officer Fionn, you have to understand that this is your job! If you aren’t willing to do it, I believe that there will be people who are willing to take your position!” said Deloose Cooper angrily.

After giving it some thought, Fionn took off his hat and placed it at his chest. “Sorry, I’m resigning. Goodbye. Good luck, Mr. Deloose.”

With that, Fionn left.

Deloose was stunned. What was going on? He frowned as he looked at the other police officers. However, all he saw was them taking off their hats and looking as though all of them were going to resign.

Deloose was truly enraged. “What are you doing? Have you forgotten your duties?”

“I’m sorry, Mr. Deloose. That monk is just too odd,” said a policeman bitterly. He had followed Fangzheng all the way here and had seen more than Fionn. Everything appeared like a coincidence, but what happened around Fangzheng had long since frightened him. If not for the police uniform on him, he would have long fled.

Now that even his boss had escaped, he finally gave up on persisting and decided to retreat.

Deloose pointed at Fangzheng and said, “Odd? He’s odd? What can a monk do? Don’t forget, this is Rome! Nothing evil dares step in here! Even if there’s…”

“Mr. Deloose!” At that moment, two policemen came in and shouted.

Deloose said unhappily, “What is it?”

The two police officers said, “We hope you can assist us in the investigation regarding the murder at the Ryan Villa.”

When Deloose heard that, he was stunned. He broke out in a cold sweat and pretended to stay calm as he said, “I’m busy right now. Can’t you see?”

“Mr. Deloose, we received key evidence just moments ago. All the evidence is perfectly linked together, and all the evidence points to you. If you don’t leave with us voluntarily, I’m afraid we will have to take you away by force,” said the policeman.

Deloose said angrily, “Nonsense! I want to see what evidence you have!”

Although he shouted fiercely, he still followed the police.

As for the other policemen, they also left.

The remaining senators looked at each other. They were all smart people. Fangzheng had only been there for a short while, yet the Rosius and the people who supported remanding Fangzheng were instantly captured or exposed. If not that, they were knocked unconscious. Was this really a coincidence?

All of them looked at Fangzheng somewhat oddly. Following that, everyone secretly made calls to people they were in cahoots with. Upon making inquiries, they realized what had happened recently. The eyes with which they looked at Fangzheng were filled with fear. It was as though they were not looking at a person, but a devil.

Fangzheng sat calmly on the table as he chuckled. “Everyone, what were you talking about? It was quite lively. Continue.”

“Fangzheng! Enough! Surrender immediately!”

At this moment, another group of soldiers appeared at the entrance. They were soldiers with loaded rifles! Standing beside the soldiers was a man. He was none other than the family head of the Rosius, Rosius!

Rosius wasn’t his original name, but the Rosius had a rule. Anyone who became the family head had to change their name. Rosius was both his last name and his first name.

Rosius was wearing a well-ironed suit as he looked at Fangzheng indifferently. “Fangzheng, put away your tricks. The game is over.”

All the soldiers raised their weapons.

Fangzheng immediately raised his hands and said, “Alright, I surrender. Arrest me.”

Immediately, a soldier came forward to tie Fangzheng’s hands.

Rosius said, “Tie him tighter. This monk is a little odd.”

The colonel leading the team said, “Don’t worry. These two subordinates of mine are experts at tying up prisoners. Until now, no one has managed to escape from their ropes.”
