Little Madman’s Guide to Acting Good

Chen Qizhao was reborn and returned to the age of 18 when he was still the wicked little overlord of the Chen family.

At this time, his brother hadn’t experienced a car accident while his par...

Chapter 75

The videos sent by Yan Kailin were very complete. After receiving them, Chen Qizhao immediately analyzed them. He pieced together the movements of the man in blue casual clothes from the videos of other people at the party, and tracked the movements of those people through surveillance videos.

It was soon concluded that the person who had contact with the man in blue casual clothes at the time was a friend of Cheng Rong, and the man in blue casual clothes entered the party as Cheng Rong's friend. After Chen Qizhao confirmed this, he immediately sent the video and surveillance data to the investigators.

"So it was really this person who tipped off my brother?" Yan Kailin looked at his circle of friends and asked in surprise, "I don't even know him."

Chen Qizhao ate his meal and explained in a normal tone, "He also went to Cheng Rong's party that day. Although he didn't post it on WeChat Moments, he raised his phone towards you several times in the video."

He added, "He is the son of a current partner of your brother's company. He is the most likely candidate."

At this point, Yan Kailin immediately reacted, "Oh my god, I'm going to stay away from him next time."

"Yeah." Chen Qizhao responded, looking at the complete food guide he received yesterday on his phone, and was checking for interesting restaurants close to S University. After all, there were only a few places where he ate, and Shen Yuhuai would definitely not like the places he went out with Yan Kailin, so this guide was just right.

"Cheng Rong seems to have run into some trouble in recent days." Yan Kailin was blacklisting some people in his friend list, and suddenly remembered something while blacklisting, "It seems that something happened to his brand store. Yesterday I asked him what day the meeting would be held this week. My brother has been keeping a close eye on him these past two days, and I wanted him to change the time, but he said that he probably wouldn't be able to do it in the next two weeks."

Chen Qizhao raised his head slightly when he heard this: "Store?"

"Yes, isn't Cheng Rong also investing? He opened a brand store, and it's doing pretty well. Then a few days ago, a consumer went there to cause trouble, and it even became a hot topic. He is now very busy dealing with this matter." Yan Kailin added: "But it's not clear who did it. I guess he offended someone. I asked him if he needed help, and he said not for the time being."

"Oh, and Liu Kai also had some problems. His bar was smashed last night." Yan Kailin said outrageously, "They weren't local thugs, but two gangsters with criminal records. They rushed in and got drunk and started smashing the shop, forcing him to close for several days. They both think this matter is not simple now, and they suspect it was someone from the party that day."

Chen Qizhao remembered that Cheng Rong had sent him a message two days ago, asking if the surveillance incident had been found out. It turned out that this incident had actually happened. If only Cheng Rong had problems, then it could be said to be one-sided, but with Liu Kai as well, then it can only be said that both of them were deliberately targeted.

"Then take a few days off this week. Your brother is watching you closely anyway, so you can go out less often." Chen Qizhao said.

Yan Kailin looked at him and asked in confusion, "Brother, why can't I see you in your dormitory when I go there at night recently? Don't you have any evening classes recently? Why do you come back so late every day?"

Chen Qizhao paused: "I went out to eat with someone."

"?" Yan Kailin: "Why don't you take me with you when you eat!"

Chen Qizhao said directly: "I can't take you with me."

Yan Kailin: "Socializing?"

Chen Qizhao: “…”

He didn't want to explain too much. After eating the takeaway in Yan Kailin's dormitory, he walked back and asked Xiao Zhou to check the matter between Cheng Rong and Liu Kai.

Someone was following him at the party, and then something bad happened to several of his friends.

Even if this matter was not aimed directly at him, it was most likely related to this group of people.

There were no classes in the afternoon, so Chen Qizhao stayed in the dormitory to sort out the information about the Sun family. The information of the Sun family was relatively easy to check, and what had happened to their family recently was no secret in the industry. This investigation made Chen Qizhao even more certain of one thing, that is, Lin Shizhong was planning to abandon the Sun family.

In the previous life, the Lin family abandoned the Sun family several years later. At that time, because the things the Sun family transported to the Lin family included domestic banned items, the Lin family set up a trap, pushed all the responsibility onto the Sun family, and got away with it cleanly. But now this matter has been brought forward. Something happened to the Sun family a while ago and they were under the spotlight of the regulatory authorities. Lin Shizhong was probably worried that the fire would burn him, so he had to throw the Sun family out as a pawn.

The recent troubles in Sun family’s business are caused by Lin Shizhong.

The Sun family is still unaware of this and thinks that the Lin family is their lifeline. The Sun family members are still very close to the Lin family, but they don't think that these are just others who want to take advantage of them.

Combining this with what he had investigated in his previous life, Chen Qizhao knew from looking at this information that something might have gone wrong with that line... When he checked Lin Shizhong's accounts, he also checked these companies.

The Sun family, Lin Shizhong... Maybe because of the butterfly effect of things happening in advance, a good opportunity was right in front of him.

The light outside the window gradually dimmed, and dusk arrived unknowingly.

The two files that had been sorted in the computer were uploaded to the mailbox. Chen Qizhao's eyes moved slightly. He hesitated for three seconds on the send button of the email, and quickly clicked send.

Several days passed in a flash.

Sun family.

Young Master Sun's face looked much better when he received the news. He sat on the sofa and made a phone call, saying in a very relaxed tone, "That was all caused by Cheng Rong. Since he likes to back others up so much, let's see who will come out to back him up when something happens."

"It's okay. I've been getting close to the Lin family recently, and I have a good relationship with Lin Xuyan. Of course, Lin Shizhong only has Lin Xuyan as his precious son, otherwise why would my dad let me follow him? If I show my face in front of Lin Xuyan a few times, my family's business will be taken care of by someone."

Young Master Sun was full of confidence. "I also heard privately that Lin Xuyan pays close attention to Chen Qizhao. He probably doesn't like Chen Qizhao's personality. I naturally won't challenge Chen Qizhao. The Lin family and the Chen family have a pretty good relationship. If I cause trouble for Cheng Rong and the others, Chen Qizhao will definitely intervene if he treats me as a friend."

Chen Qizhao's personality is not considered good in the circle.

Earlier, someone deliberately approached Chen Qizhao in order to establish a relationship with the Chen family. After interacting with him for a while, he even had some criticisms about Chen Qizhao's character. The two brothers in the Chen family are not on good terms with each other. Outsiders praise Chen Qizhao for the sake of the Chen family's face. In fact, there are many people who dislike Chen Qizhao.

But Chen Qizhao is a soft-hearted person and easy to deceive.

For example, Cheng Rong. He had inquired about it and found out that Cheng Rong used Chen Qizhao as an ATM for a period of time.

These two people seem to have a good relationship, but Cheng Lirong may even look down on Chen Qizhao behind the scenes.

This time, by causing trouble for Cheng Rong and others, he could not only vent his anger, but also watch these fake friends make a fuss, and indirectly cause trouble for Chen Qizhao and Yan Kailin. The most important thing is that when the matter is passed on to Lin Xuyan, he might be able to take credit for it.

After Master Sun finished talking to his friend on the phone, he heard the door of the entrance door ring. He was about to talk to his father about something, but then he saw his father come in from the door with a pale face. He hurriedly asked the servants to move things, and did not pay any attention to Master Sun, and went straight to the study.

"Dad?!" Young Master Sun became nervous when he saw this. He watched Father Sun hurriedly deal with the things in the safe. "What happened!?"

"Someone sent an anonymous letter of complaint to the regulatory department, and investigators from the company have already gone there." Sun's father looked nervous. "I received the news in advance, so I had to rush back to deal with these things first. These must be dealt with immediately, otherwise something serious will happen."

Young Master Sun was stunned. "The regulatory authorities are here, of course. Didn't they come last time? Didn't you say that the issue of prohibited items in the channel has been dealt with? The rest of our house is clean, so we are not afraid of them checking."

Father Sun ignored his son and collected all the documents in the safe, put them in a suitcase, and immediately handed them to his trusted assistant.

When Master Sun saw this, he suddenly had a bad feeling. "No, what is the regulatory department here to investigate? The channel from last time? It shouldn't be... Is there something else going on in our family..."

"Son, don't ask too many questions." Father Sun handed the things to his assistant and said, "Someone must be behind this. I have already arranged some things in advance. As long as the regulatory authorities can't find anything wrong, it should be fine."

The anonymous report letter accurately traced back to the transportation line of his cooperation with the Lin family. There must be someone behind this. The previous channel accident was one, and the few times of bidding against him in business was another. Now they actually made this matter through anonymous reports. The person behind him wanted to force the Sun family to death. If there is really a problem, it will not be something that can be solved simply through relationships. He will go to jail for what he did.

After Sun's father finished dealing with the documents, he looked at his dumbfounded son and did not have time to explain too much to him. "I'll ask my assistant to arrange a car. You go pack your luggage immediately. If something really happens, you can go abroad to avoid the limelight. Come back after Dad finishes dealing with this matter."

He was arranging things in an orderly manner. When he saw his son leave the study, he remembered to call his good friend Lin Shizhong.

However, when he made the call, the other party directly rejected the call. His face instantly turned ugly. Thinking that this matter involved a lot of people, he could only find a way to solve it himself.

The regulatory authorities soon came to conduct a thorough investigation, and some of the relevant computer hosts were moved away.

Even though the Sun family handled some documents in a timely manner, some traces still could not escape the eyes of the regulatory authorities. The regulatory authorities handled it impartially, but as more and more things were exposed, Sun's father discovered that the regulatory authorities were targeting them and were investigating the channels with problems... He had no choice but to contact Lin Shizhong, and now he can only rely on the Lin family's connections to save the situation.

But the other party rejected the call shortly after he made it, and an anonymous text message was received on his phone.

[You know how to deal with this matter if you still want to get out of it. ]

Father Sun held the phone and looked at the text messages inside, feeling a chill in his heart.

Lin has already contacted the reporter. When Sun's father clicked on the news report, a pop-up message appeared saying that Lin's company was about to hold an emergency press conference to explain the investigation into its product channels. All the responsibility was pushed onto the Sun family.

Lin Shizhong wanted him to shut up and take the blame, and then find a way to help him get rid of the crime later.

Ever since boarding the other party's ship, the Sun family has been going smoothly until now, but now the ship is about to capsize. Having done so much business with the Lin family over the years, he also knows Lin Shizhong's abilities. The method proposed by Lin Shizhong is indeed the best method at the moment. The Sun family relies entirely on the Lin family to do things. If he still wants to keep the Sun family... he can only grit his teeth and take on this matter.

With trembling hands, Mr. Sun was about to delete the text message and contact his subordinates to handle the matter.

Suddenly, a text message popped up on his phone, indicating that a new email had been received in his mailbox. The title of the email was a smiley face made up of characters. When it appeared in the pop-up window on the phone, Mr. Sun's heart dropped and he quickly clicked to check the email.

When I opened the email, it was filled with dense text.

What comes to mind is the recent events of several of his projects being rejected by his peers. The text attached to it explains the events in a cold and indifferent manner, as if one has glimpsed the truth of all things and presents them almost realistically through the form of textual narration. Sun's father looked at the message with cold sweat on his back. When he scrolled to the bottom, a photo appeared in the email.

The person in the photo is an important senior executive of the Lin family, and this senior executive was having a pleasant conversation with the Sun family's mortal enemy with a satisfied smile on his face.

There is a note attached to the bottom of the photo:

[The cunning fox is looking for a scapegoat, and you are happy to be his arrangement]

Sun's father's cell phone fell to the ground. He looked at the phone with a pale face, the screen still on. A horrible fact kept repeating in his mind. It was not only his competitors who were messing with the Sun family during this period... but also his allies whom he believed in.

Lin Shizhong didn't want him to live.

Within the Chen Group, Chen Shiming obtained the test report of the pills. After seeing the pill test report, he immediately went to Chen Jianhong's office, put the report in front of him, and narrated calmly: "The pill test had two samples, A and B. Sample A is the one at home, and it has similar ingredients to the pills prescribed by the doctor, but there was a problem with the sample B in the office."

These two pills look exactly the same on the surface, and there is no difference when you compare them in front of each other. For patients taking the drugs, it is completely difficult to tell the difference from the surface. When Chen Shiming received the pills, he was wondering if he was overthinking it. He sent them for testing just in case...

But once they were sent for testing, the drug ingredients found were completely different. Sample A was indeed a prescription drug for suppressing and treating high blood pressure, but Sample B did not have a strong blood pressure-lowering effect and contained more other ingredients.

"No harmful compounds were detected in sample B, but the ingredients of this sample included sedatives, sleeping pills and other drug ingredients. Simply put, the effect of suppressing high blood pressure after taking it is weak, and the drug reaction will make people sleepy and dizzy..." When Chen Shiming found the opposite result, he thought that there were toxic compounds like aromatherapy, but he didn't expect that this drug only replaced part of the cost of antihypertensive drugs.

Chen Jianhong doesn't take these oral medications very often, only occasionally.

These drugs are not harmful, they just cause drowsiness. However, for Chen Jianhong, feeling drowsy or tired at work will not only reduce his work efficiency, but also increase the probability of making mistakes when handling matters. That’s why I was specifically told about this when the doctor prescribed the medicine.

Chen Jianhong frowned: "This is a bit strange."

First we had aromatherapy, a chronic poison, and now we have this drug that only makes people sleepy after taking it. There is always an incomprehensible sense of difference.

"Since the car accident aromatherapy incident, we have been sending people to monitor the situation at Chen's and the villa. Last time, I got your permission to investigate the hidden surveillance in your office, and no one tampered with the drugs in the drawer." Chen Shiming explained: "So it is impossible for someone to replace the drugs during this period of time."

After the incident, Chen Shiming paid special attention to the problem and installed surveillance cameras and bodyguards in the company and at home.

The discovery of the drug problem now can only mean one thing, that is, the drugs were replaced long before they were alert. After Chen Jianhong's blood pressure stabilized during this period, he took these pills less frequently. A full bottle originally had only about ten pills left.

According to time calculation, Chen Jianhong started taking this bottle of medicine at the end of last year, which means that the medicine may have been replaced last year.

"Not many people can enter your office. Ordinary people, even assistants, cannot stay here without anyone around." Chen Shiming said, "It's easy to say that replacing drugs is simple, but the person who has to replace the drugs when you are not here can only be him."

Chen Jianhong held the test report in his hand and said, "Jiang Yuze."

Jiang Yuze is Chen Jianhong's special assistant. He was in charge of many things in the past. Jiang Yuze was the only one who could enter and leave Chen Jianhong's office freely. If one wanted to replace the drugs without being discovered by others, it could only be done by people close to Chen Jianhong.

Moreover, the Chen family began to be wary of these things after Jiang Yuze's affairs were exposed. If this thing was replaced before Jiang Yuze was imprisoned, then everything can be explained.

"Wait." Chen Jianhong found a bottle from the drawer on the other side, "Check this while you're at it."

Chen Shiming asked: "What is this?"

Chen Jianhong frowned and said, "I took these pills before I took my blood pressure medication. They were for energizing me."

Chen Jianhong started taking antihypertensive drugs after Chen Qizhao found the problem with an electronic blood pressure monitor. At the request of Zhang Yazhi, Chen Jianhong also started taking antihypertensive drugs at that time. In the past, Chen Jianhong rarely took drugs during working hours... He only took health supplements for refreshing himself occasionally. After the blood pressure problem was exposed, he stopped taking the health supplements.

If these were done by Jiang Yuze, then it might not only be the antihypertensive drugs that were replaced, but also the health care products.

"I will think about this matter again, it's just very strange... Judging from the time, if there is a problem with the health products, it means that the replacement of the pills may have happened before the aromatherapy was replaced." Chen Shiming couldn't understand why Lin Shizhong did this? If one of these things were exposed, it would inevitably increase their vigilance. Why did Lin Shizhong still want to get the poisonous incense when he already had the pills?

The father and son pondered over this matter, always feeling that there were some things mixed in that matter that they had not seen through.

"Have you told Qi Zhao about this?" Chen Jianhong asked.

"I haven't told him yet." Chen Shiming hesitated a little. "He may have been under a lot of emotional stress recently. I didn't tell him before the matter was concluded." He looked at the health supplement in his hand. "If there is a problem with this thing, then he must know about it."

"When you mentioned that the business in the South District was secretly used by the Lin family, I thought of a problem." Chen Jianhong put down the test report and frowned, "Using criminal means such as aromatherapy and car accidents... The other party's methods are not ordinary. I think they want to silence me."

Chen Shiming was stunned.

"Lin's is a pharmaceutical company. It's too easy for them to make antihypertensive pills that look the same on the outside." Chen Jianhong's serious eyes paused on the table. He took out a document from the slightly messy table and handed it to Chen Shiming. "Lin Shizhong has infiltrated too many people in the group. If it was just a business method, he could have bankrupted Chen's company. But he didn't. Instead, he continued to use Chen's company to expand the production sector of his business empire for profit, and used Chen's company as a pawn to make money."

"If, what if Chen's lost its benefits to Lin Shizhong... If it were me, I would quickly get rid of all traces of me in Chen's and withdraw immediately." Chen Jianhong looked at Chen Shiming, "Using other means at this time will only make the Chen family suspicious or discover, but he still did it, which means he has other purposes."

Chen Jianhong continued, "Chen is his money-making tool. After using this money-making tool, he has other things to do. Either he wants to destroy Chen... or there is something else in Chen, and he wants to kill it, so he plans to silence it. Some secrets will not be discovered until Chen no longer exists."

When Chen Shiming heard this, he realized that the matter might be more serious.

If this is true, then the projects and market channels that Lin Shizhong had used and that he had been investigating during this period might very well uncover deeper information, so the other party slowed down his pace of withdrawal and began to destroy certain things.

He thought that Lin Shizhong destroyed these things just to prevent the Chen family from finding any trace back to Lin.

But if these things are related to more things, then some of the other party’s strange behaviors can be explained.

"But there is a problem now. We know only a limited amount, and the other party is on guard. It is not easy for us to find out these things before them." Chen Shiming frowned and said, "It would be great if there was something that could slow down the Lin family. In this situation, if we want to find out something before them..."

The two were thinking when suddenly the office door rang.

Chen Jianhong called out, "Come in!", and Special Assistant Xu hurried in and whispered a few words in Chen Shiming's ear.

When Chen Shiming heard what Special Assistant Xu said, his expression suddenly turned strange. "I know. You go and keep an eye on it."

After Assistant Xu left, Chen Jianhong looked at Chen Shiming, "What's wrong?"

Chen Shiming said: "Do you know about the recent investigation of the Sun family?"

Chen Jianhong rarely interacts with the Sun family, but he has heard about these things in S City, especially the close relationship between the Sun family and the Lin family and the fact that they have cooperated before. It is said that because of this incident, the Lin family is planning to sever ties with the Sun family, and it seems that a press conference will be held today.

Chen Shiming took out his phone and searched, and handed a piece of breaking news to Chen Jianhong. "The Sun family's channel to City B was anonymously reported to have illegal contraband. The regulatory authorities found the problem and the goods in the same batch were Lin's goods... I don't know why the Sun family went crazy. At the press conference, they insisted that Lin Shizhong had asked them to transport the contraband."

"Maybe we are lucky..."

Chen Shiming said: "Something happened to Lin."

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Da Chen: It would be great if the Lin family could be held back.

Xiao Chen: Oh, arrange it.

Da Chen: We are so lucky.
