After finishing his phone call with Xu Xianhuai and leaving the study, Lin Wu finally felt relaxed both physically and mentally.
So when he saw a strange phone call coming in at noon, Lin Wu had the patience to deal with it.
She didn't answer and hung up.
The number kept calling again.
It was not until the third time that Lin Wu answered the call and turned on the PA. He placed his phone on the dining table and asked leisurely, "Who is this?" while eating Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that was delivered by a nearby club.
A familiar male voice came from the phone.
"Ms. Lin has already guessed it, so why bother asking?"
It was Leng Linfeng.
Lin Wu said calmly: "It's an unfamiliar number. How would I know who it is? If you don't tell me your name, I'll hang up."
There was silence over there.
Lin Wu hung up as soon as she said so, but just as her finger was about to touch the screen, the man's low laugh came with an ambiguous meaning: "I have been thinking about Miss Lin for so long, but in the end Miss Lin can't even recognize my voice. It really makes me sad."
Lin Wu pretended to be surprised: "So it's the young master of the Leng family. This is strange. You and I have no grudges in the past or in the present. Why are you thinking about me?"
At the same time, on the other side of North City, the Leng family.
Leng Linfeng was sitting in the study on the third floor of the Leng family villa, listening to Lin Wu's nonsense, with amusement in his eyes.
After Lin Wu finished speaking, he said, "We have already dealt with each other, why do you have to pretend to be confused, Miss Lin?"
In the Yujia Imperial Garden, Lin Wu put down his bowl after finishing his meal and said, "I don't understand what Master Leng said."
"Didn't Miss Lin send people to burn down my warehouse in the west of North City last night?" Leng Linfeng said suddenly.
Lin Wu leaned back and tapped the table with his fingers. "I don't understand what Master Leng said even more."
Man: "Don't understand? Okay, Leng will explain everything to Miss Lin."
"The day before yesterday, you met with the chief of police."
"They all showed up at the hospital morgue yesterday morning."
"I think Miss Lin is well aware that Leng has some connection with the black market. She is also well aware that Master Zhang's body has disappeared from the hospital morgue."
The man paused, "But just last night, Leng's warehouse in the west of the city suddenly caught fire. According to the surviving surveillance, the person who prevented the fire had Master Zhang's face on his shoulders."
Lin Wu curled the corners of his mouth.
She told Zheng Mingxian and Cheng Man that the other person who planted the spy was Leng Linfeng. Although she didn't know what he was going to do, it was clear that the final plan had not been completed yet. How could he really stand by and watch?
When she heard Leng Linfeng's identity from the director, she was certain of this.
And when she learned that there was no fake Zhang Yuge identity in the hospital, she confirmed another thing.
Since Leng Linfeng had already placed spies there, he should have known that the fake Zhang Yuge was missing.
Leng Linfeng does not have the technical means like her, so he may not know who kidnapped the fake Zhang Yuge, so he may be waiting, waiting for the fake Zhang Yuge to show up and escape, or waiting for the kidnapper to show up and find him in exchange for benefits.
In this case, Leng Linfeng would be restless because he could not be sure who had the fake Zhang Yuge and whether he had been bribed by someone to reveal information that should not be revealed.
The video Zheng Mingxian gave her made her more confident. The fake Zhang Yuge said that Leng Linfeng wanted to kill him. This should be something they did together. After the deed was done, Leng Linfeng wanted to silence him, and the fake Zhang Yuge found out and tried to escape.
Therefore, once the fake Zhang Yuge appears, he will definitely stand against him and will inevitably be disadvantageous to him.
As for why Leng Linfeng came to her, it was because of the human skin mask.
Leng Linfeng had close contact with the chief, so he could easily know that the human skin mask on the body sent to the police station was gone. In addition, it was no secret that she had been to Sheng Gui that day. If he dug a little deeper, it would not be difficult for Leng Linfeng to think that the human skin mask was with her.
Therefore, when Zhang Yuge's face appeared in the surveillance video, it was obvious who sent him.
Even if you know it clearly, you still have to pretend to be confused.
Lin Wu said: "Master Zhang? Isn't Master Zhang dead? How could he appear there? Master Leng, please don't scare me."
Leng Linfeng on the other end of the phone was so angry that he laughed.
"I didn't know that Miss Lin had this side. But is Miss Lin so sure that she can control me?"
Lin Wu poured himself a bowl of soup and rice, eating it with a spoon, it was particularly delicious, "Maybe."
"What if Master Zhang is really dead?" Leng Linfeng asked suddenly, "Calculating the time, does Miss Lin really know a lot? Is she deliberately deceiving me?"
Lin Wu paused, then quickly realized that Leng Linfeng knew that the fake Zhang Yuge was poisoned and would not live long. Based on the time when the fake Zhang Yuge disappeared from the hospital, there was a 90% chance that he did not have time to tell the truth.
Leng Linfeng said confidently: "Ms. Lin, if you are too full, you will suffer losses. I believe you don't want to suffer too much loss, right?"
Lin Wu put down the spoon, "So?"
Leng Linfeng actually said straight to the point: "No matter if he lives or dies, give him to me, and Miss Lin, please stop investigating. In exchange, I will give Miss Lin the Leng family's business project in North City, and I will ensure that Miss Lin makes enough money."
Lin Wu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Does Master Leng really believe that he is infallible? There has never been an uncurable poison in this world. I am still a Taoist priest. Master Leng wants to bet on whether I can detoxify?"
Leng Linfeng stopped talking.
Lin Wu didn't say anything either. There was a suffocating silence on both sides.
When it comes to patience, Lin Wu has always been a master and eats leisurely.
After a long while, it was Leng Linfeng who broke the silence first. He asked, "What does Miss Lin want?"
Lin Wu asked, "Who are you? What use is the pendant to you? What are you doing in North City?"
Leng Linfeng smiled: "Didn't Miss Lin say that Master Zhang is not dead? Didn't he tell you?"
Lin Wu said directly: "I am the one asking you now, not you asking me. I can't just believe one side of the story. If what you said matches what he said, then I will believe that you didn't lie to me. Otherwise, why would I give him to you?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. The man finally spoke and asked slowly, "You asked me who I am. Lin Wu, do you really not know who I am?"
Lin Wu was stunned, "...what?"
