Ten years in Huating have been turbulent, with behind-the-scenes capital always omnipresent. Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents always churn; lights flicker on and off, and human affairs ebb a...
The man in casual clothes on the other end of the video had a solemn expression.
“Brother Zhongyuan, the girl in the video is Yao Zihan. She is a sophomore at Huating University. Her parents are divorced and she was awarded to her mother. She returned home from school last Friday. Until Saturday night, her mother could not contact her and went to the school. That's when she found out that she had been missing for 24 hours and immediately called the police.
Whether it was her imagination or not, Qin Suisui felt that his eyes were empty and his tone was inexplicably weak.
She looked at Huo Zhongyuan with a puzzled expression, noticing that his eyes were slightly lowered and his expression was somewhat solemn.
The man in the video paused, as if he was having a hard time saying what he was about to say.
"Last night, we discovered that her mother had died at home!"
"?"
Qin Suisui looked astonished, not understanding how the other party's mother could have died at home, and whether there was any necessary connection between them.
"Her mother's surname is Yao, and she is Ms. Yao Jing, the general manager of the Huating City Petroleum Group branch!"
"What?"
Upon hearing the familiar name, Qin Suisui couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Huo Zhongyuan reached out and patted the back of her hand reassuringly.
The man on the other end of the video glanced at it.
"Does Attorney Qin know General Manager Yao?"
Qin Suisui glanced at Huo Zhongyuan.
"We met at a charity gala earlier this month!"
Huo Zhongyuan nodded, his expression solemn.
"Has anything been discovered regarding President Yao's death?"
"No!"
The man in the video shook his head, then perked up and asked.
"How did you obtain this video? Do you know where it was filmed?"
At this moment, Huo Zhongyuan stopped hiding it and spoke calmly.
"This video was unintentionally taken by Mr. Ouyang Beiguo of Feifan Trading,..."
"You mean, this video was recorded at the head of the company?"
The leader, who had been standing to the side and had not been in the frame until now, finally couldn't help but speak up, his tone urgent.
Because this case involves the head of a branch of Huating Petroleum Group, the municipal government has issued a strict order to solve the case as quickly as possible.
The case, which had seemed hopeless, suddenly took a turn for the better, and even the usually composed man became anxious.
"Yes, this is the top floor corridor of the first building. You can go over and verify it."
"Where is Mr. Ouyang?"
"They should already be in Taipei by now!"
Huo Zhongyuan sounded somewhat annoyed.
"As I just mentioned, it's possible that because of this video on the phone, Ouyang's house has already been searched by the other party. He's afraid that they might endanger his personal safety, so he's taking a flight to Beicheng this afternoon to hide for a while!"
The man, whose face was never visible in the video, continued speaking, only his voice could be heard.
"Gu Lei, contact Ouyang Beiguo immediately. I'm going to the director's office now to apply for a search warrant for the chief!"
"yes!"
Gu Lei stood ramrod straight, his expression resolute.
Qin Suisui heard the sound of a door opening and closing in the video; it must have been the leader who went out.
"Zhongyuan, I'll contact Ouyang Beiguo right now. Thank you so much for the video. If you find anything else, please call me immediately!"
"Alright!"
Huo Zhongyuan's voice was cold as he decisively hung up the video call.
He turned to look at Qin Suisui and reached out to stroke her furrowed brows.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Suisui shook her head.
"It just feels so sudden!"
She still couldn't accept that such a vivid life in her memory was gone!
"Senior, why do you think Yao Zihan would leave the school and end up in the main hall?"
It was clear that Sui Sui was in a bad mood. Huo Zhongyuan sighed and put his arm around her as they leaned against the sofa.
"If it appears in the main seat, I might have some guesses!"
He reached out and intertwined his fingers with hers, looking at the delicate white fingers in his palm. He squeezed them and then said.
"There has been a rumor in private that Lin Feng, the behind-the-scenes boss of Shouzuo, is involved in the black market business. Because of the power behind him, Lin Feng has always acted very flamboyantly in China. According to inside information, Lin Feng should have been in Shanghai last week. Combined with Yao Zihan's mysterious disappearance, it may be related to Lin Feng's hobbies."
Huo Zhongyuan paused here, looking at Qin Suisui's face: "Lin Feng has a fondness for beautiful women, and a particular fondness for virgins, especially pretty virgins!"
He was truly grateful at that moment, because recently, whenever he had free time, he would wait for Sui Sui downstairs at Yuanxing International Building.
If, by any chance, Sui Sui were to be taken away, he simply couldn't imagine what might happen next.
Although Raymond Lam investigates people's backgrounds beforehand when he's making a move, who can guarantee there won't be any unexpected events?
Although Sui Sui is quite skilled, she is mostly alone, and her two hands are no match for four fists.
"Sui Sui, Lin Feng is a madman. Sometimes he acts recklessly without any restraint. Please make sure that the same reckless thing that happened to the Chief does never happen again!"
"No! I won't!"
Qin Suisui nodded affirmatively. After returning to China, she sorted out the interpersonal relationships between China, Hong Kong, and Macau. There were a few that needed to be treated with caution. One of them was the Yuan family in Macau, and Lin Feng was the Yuan family's most capable henchman in external affairs!
Yuan entrusted Lin Feng with many matters that he could not handle directly in public.
She is an exceptionally accurate marksman, possesses extraordinary skills, and has a calm and strong mind. She once ventured alone into the underworld and came into contact with such gang leaders. The gun in her hand has tasted blood and intimidated a group of people.
It's a pity that guns are not allowed in the country, otherwise she could have easily walked around the capital alone with just a gun.
