Chapter 357 Scapegoat

County Magistrate Zhu ushered Chen Dashan and the others to sit down.

Chen Dashan noticed something was off with County Magistrate Zhu.

His expression was unnatural, his eyes flickering, like he had something to say but couldn't.

He also looked a bit troubled.

"County Magistrate Zhu, if there's something you need to say, just say it. Between us, there's no need to beat around the bush."

County Magistrate Zhu forced a smile, "As expected, nothing escapes Brother Dashan's eyes. I won't hide it then, Brother Dashan, someone from above is putting pressure on me."

"What do you mean?" Chen Dashan frowned slightly.

"Qin Lan and Zhao Qiqiang are being held at our county bureau, right?"

Chen Dashan nodded, those few were indeed being held there.

"These past few days, many people have called me, asking me to release the two of them."

Seeing County Magistrate Zhu's expression, Chen Dashan understood he was also in a difficult position.
