A week later, the Jianghai underground money laundering case finally came to an end. Led by Sikong Yan, more than one hundred and fifty criminals were arrested. Due to the massive amount of money involved, which could even be described as unprecedented, Sikong Yan was sentenced to death in the first trial, with a reprieve of two years.
Sikong Yan did not appeal, as his father Sikong Zhengyang wished. Sikong Zhengyang even innocently thought of finding ways to rescue Sikong Yan after some time, when the public outcry had subsided.
However, the day after the sentence, Sikong Yan suddenly fell ill in prison and died because he could not be rescued.
When Sikong Zhengyang received this news, it hit him like a bolt from the blue.
A sudden illness?
Did he not know his son?
Sikong Yan had always been in good health, and there were no hereditary diseases in the Sikong family. Why would he suddenly fall ill?
