Chapter 471 Those who betrayed her do not deserve to be forgiven
Officer Li held the note with the number on it and rubbed his fingertips across the rough surface.
The incandescent lights in the corridor were still buzzing. He turned around and glanced at the closed door of the interrogation room. Fu Jingheng's breathing inside could be heard through the door, revealing a hint of unwillingness.
"Don't worry, Mr. Fu. I'll lock the evidence cabinet with this number. I've also informed the technical team. We'll do a silent tracking first so as not to alert the enemy."
Fu Jingchen nodded, and the jade buttons on the cuffs of his suit flashed by when he turned around.
"I will go to the Xuanyuan family in person this afternoon."
He paused and added, "Xuanyuan Pavilion is not a fool. There are some things he cares about more than we do."
Officer Li agreed and watched Fu Jingchen disappear at the end of the corridor.
The note paper in his hand was warmed by his body temperature, but the string of numbers seemed to be frozen.
The sponsor who can be used as the last bargaining chip by Fu Jingheng is definitely not a simple character.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, there was a knock on the sandalwood door of the Xuanyuan family's old house.
The osmanthus flowers in the courtyard were in full bloom. Xuanyuan Ge, wearing a camel-colored wool sweater, was squatting beside the flower bed, pruning dead branches.
Hearing the noise, he straightened up, his fingertips still stained with grass debris. "Mr. Fu is a rare visitor."
Fu Jingchen stood by the moon cave door and glanced at the stone table in the yard.
There was a white porcelain cup on it, with tea stains at the bottom, as if someone had just sat there.
"Aunt Jiang has been here?"
Xuanyuan Ge wiped his hands and walked towards the main room.
"Xunxun called someone dad in the church, which brought shame to the Xuanyuan family. She felt uncomfortable."
He knew Fu Jingchen was there.
So, there is no need to hide this matter.
And he had no objection to Xunxun calling Qi Moxun "Dad".
Because he knew very well what Qi Moxun had paid.
The fact that Xunxun was moved speaks volumes.
He pushed open the carved wooden door and saw an open photo album on the eight-immortals table inside. The top page was a photo of Xunxun when she was just adopted. Her little face was thin and pointed, but her smile revealed two small canine teeth.
"I showed her this one and she left."
Fu Jingchen sat down at the table. Xuanyuan Pavilion poured him a cup of hot tea. In the mist, he got straight to the point.
"Fu Jingheng has a sponsor behind him. I asked Officer Li to check the number. The source is hidden, and it seems to be an overseas line."
Xuanyuan Ge paused, holding the teacup. The sunlight filtered through the window lattice onto his temples, revealing a hint of fatigue.
Obviously, this matter also troubled him for a long time.
Fu Jingchen tapped his fingertips on the rim of the cup.
"In Fu Jingheng's account book, there are several fund flows that are somewhat related to your Xuanyuan family."
"I suspect that the sponsor is not only helping Fu Jingheng, but also wants to contact Xunxun through him."
Xuanyuan Ge clenched his knuckles suddenly, and the celadon cup made a light sound when it hit the table.
"What do they want to find?"
"I don't know, but it won't be a good thing." Fu Jingchen raised his eyes.
"Officer Li's technical team tracked down a number that had a signal in Gangcheng last night. It's connected to the Fu family's former members in Gangcheng. The Xuanyuan family has extensive connections in Gangcheng, so perhaps we can find some clues."
Xuanyuan Ge was silent for a moment, then stood up and took out a thick address book from the bookshelf.
There were densely packed names written on the yellowed pages. He turned to a certain page and his fingertips touched the two words "Uncle Chen".
"The old boss of Gangcheng Wharf is an old friend of my father. Most of the Fu family's shipping in Gangcheng went through his hands."
He picked up his phone and dialed, his voice as heavy as a brick, "Uncle Chen, help me check someone... Yes, Fu Jingheng's people, appeared in Sha Tsui last night, with an overseas number..."
After hanging up the phone, the osmanthus flowers in the yard fell all over the ground.
Fu Jingchen picked up the teacup and took a sip.
The tea is aged Pu'er, so bitter that it makes the tip of the tongue astringent, but the sweetness gradually comes out.
It's just like the grudges that have been entangled for all these years, which are finally coming to an end in bitterness.
In the evening, news from Uncle Chen came.
"Fu Jingheng's contact in Hong Kong is called A Kun. He met with a man named Zhao at a warehouse in Sha Tsui last night."
"That guy surnamed Zhao is the owner of Zhao Shipping. Ten years ago, he competed with the Qi family for Southeast Asian shipping routes, but lost miserably. He later switched to underground business."
Xuanyuan Ge placed his phone on the table, and the screen lit up with A Kun's photo.
—A man with a crew cut and a scar at the corner of his eye.
"Zhao Shipping... I remember that Qi Moxun's father was almost in trouble because he was competing with the Zhao family for shipping routes. Someone tampered with the ship and it almost got him into trouble."
Fu Jingchen drew a circle on the table with his fingertips: "So, the Zhao family funded Fu Jingheng, not only to deal with me, but also to use Fu Jingheng to mess up the Qi family and avenge the past."
"And Xunxun is probably another card in their hand. If they can control the Xuanyuan family's child, they can contain the Xuanyuan family and prevent them from acting rashly."
Fu Jingchen added.
"Now that Xunxun is regarded as so important by Qi Moxun, it is a pleasant surprise for them."
As the night deepened, Officer Li called, his voice filled with excitement.
"Mr. Fu! The technical team cracked the encryption protocol of the number and found call records from three months ago. One of them was called to the vice president of Zhao Shipping!"
"Also, we found that SIM card in the Zizhi Tongjian in the Fu family's old house. The text messages inside were all about contacting A-Kun, mentioning 'Boss Zhao wants to see the child'!"
Fu Jingchen stood up, and Xuanyuan Ge stood up too.
The two looked at each other and saw determination in each other's eyes.
"Officer Li, request a search of Zhao Shipping's warehouse in Gangcheng. I'm contacting Qi Moxun now and asking him to cooperate in sealing off the dock."
Fu Jingchen's voice came through the phone with unquestionable strength.
"Also, keep a close eye on Fu Jingheng's movements in prison. He will definitely find a way to contact the outside world."
After hanging up the phone, Xuanyuan Pavilion had already called the driver.
"I'll go to Hong Kong with you."
He picked up his coat from the back of the chair, "I must be present when Xunxun is doing something."
When the car drove out of the old house, the moon had just climbed over the wall.
Xuanyuan Ge looked at the street scene passing by outside the window, and his phone vibrated. It was a photo sent by Shen Hanxing.
Xunxun and Chengcheng were lying on the carpet playing with building blocks. Qi Moxun was sitting beside them, holding a fairy tale book in his hand, and was telling them something with his head down.
In the background of the photo, the wall lamp in the living room is emitting a warm yellow light, and the lisianthus in the vase is in full bloom.
He paused his fingertips on the screen, replied "That's great", and then put the phone back in his pocket.
The wind outside the car window brought in the fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
Now that he is leaving here, Fu Jingchen feels a little reluctant.
At the beginning, when Shen Hanxing found him for the first time, she said with red eyes, "Fu Jingchen, you can't hit him. No matter how bad he is, he is still your brother."
At that time, he just thought she was ridiculously soft-hearted, but now he understood that she really wanted to solve this difficult problem.
Therefore, those who let her down do not deserve to be forgiven.
