Chapter 171 Preparing to Go It Alone
"Mr. Shen."
Shi Wang looked at the visitor and nodded slightly.
However, after not seeing him for a while, Shen Jingbai's image is quite different from before.
Before this, he loved to wear a sweatshirt and sportswear, and with his slightly childish face, he looked like a young man who had just walked out of a university campus.
Until today, the latter changed into a complete set of high-end suits, black clothes and black pants that were tailored to his body, showing off his previous height advantage.
He was completely different from before. If Chen Jingbai hadn't greeted him first, Shi Wang might not have recognized him for a moment.
When Shen Jingbai saw him, he also grinned slightly: "Shi Lu, why don't you go in first when you're here? It's so cold waiting outside."
Apart from the completely different outfit from before, Shen Jingbai's personality didn't seem to have changed much.
There happened to be a snowstorm coming down, and Shi Wang narrowed his eyes slightly: "I just got here not long ago."
“Mr. Shen, what you want has been prepared today.”
Hearing Shi Wang's words, Chen Jingbai's eyes lit up instantly: "Really?"
At the same time, he quickly retracted the previously feigned friendly expression on his face and narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"That's wonderful."
It was cold outside and not a good place to talk, so the two of them quickly greeted each other and then went inside from the hotel entrance.
In the obviously warm room temperature, Shi Wang placed all the information he had obtained from the private detective on the table in front of the two people.
"This is the information I found about your uncle in Star Country."
"Except for some insignificant daily life." Shi Wang said this, while he opened a piece of document and put it on the other side of the table, and pointed to the content in another document that he had marked with a pen.
“These are the evidences you want, Mr. Shen.”
The information that the private detective gave to Shi Wang was indeed a lot and very messy.
In order to clearly present what Shen Jingbai wanted to him, Shi Wang had been sorting it out for several days in a row. It was not until today when he almost finished the work that he made an appointment to meet with the former.
After all, these things involve the internal secrets of a large family like the Shen family, so it would be more reassuring if they were delivered in person.
It was a coincidence that the Shen family made their fortune in Shenzhen, and Chen Jingbai happened to have a job in Beijing. When he heard that Shi Wang was also there, the two of them hit it off immediately, saving the latter the trouble of going back to Shenzhen, which led to the scene mentioned above.
Seeing Chen Jingbai pick up the information and look at it, Shi Wang lowered his eyes slightly and continued.
"Also, I have an additional discovery."
"What did you find?"
"Shi Lu, please feel free to speak." Seeing that Chen Jingbai indeed looked up and cast an inquiring look at him, Shi Wang reached out and pulled out an extra document marked with red pen from the pile of documents.
"In addition to Uncle Shen's many mistresses, he also used the power of his wife and children to embezzle a considerable amount of the Shen family's public funds to launder money overseas."
"Of course, more importantly, he took this money and invested it all in the research and development of a new type of psychotropic drug... If I remember correctly, this controlled drug is strictly prohibited and illegal internationally."
To put it simply, as long as Chen Jingbai got hold of this crucial piece of evidence, it would be a foregone conclusion that he would beat his uncle to death.
At this point, the joy on Chen Jingbai's face could no longer be suppressed.
"Is this true?"
"Of course..." Shi Wang lowered his eyelashes again: "I deduced this from your uncle's whereabouts during this period."
After all, private detectives are not policemen. Uncle Shen has a strong sense of privacy and anti-detection when doing these illegal things, so outsiders will definitely not notice anything unusual.
However, Shi Wang's years of professional intuition as a lawyer enabled him to unravel the mystery and discover the truth.
This is Shi Wang's unknown and powerful insight, and of course it is also the reason why he was able to reach the top of the industry in such a short time after graduation.
“But this is true, I can use my future career to guarantee it to you, Master Shen.”
"As for further concrete evidence, I think you'll need to send more people to conduct a detailed investigation."
Chen Jingbai took a deep breath, and at the same time, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, but eventually, under Shi Wang's overly confident expression, he became happy again: "Okay, I'll believe you this time."
"Who made you Shi Lu?"
"If this goes through, feel free to ask for any conditions you have in the future. Not to mention one Xinghai Law Firm, even if it's ten, our Shen family can afford it!"
But what surprised Chen Jingbai was that Shi Wang, who had obviously been reluctant to leave Xinghai Law Firm, did not respond immediately after hearing his words.
This is very wrong.
Although Chen Jingbai and Shi Wang did not have much contact, he was still keenly aware that the man's condition today was very different from before.
Shi Wang was very silent before, but although he talked a lot today, he inexplicably gave people the illusion that he was even colder.
It’s hard to say what’s different, but it’s true that everything is different.
After a long silence, Shi Wang finally seemed to raise his eyelashes. His dark pupils were indifferent and showed no emotion. "I'm ready to leave Xinghai."
"That's a good thing, Shi Lu."
Chen Jingbai didn't seem surprised by this result. "I've said it before, you're suited to working on your own. With your abilities, staying in that kind of law firm is a complete waste of talent."
"Um."
On the eve of his departure, Shi Wang glanced at Chen Jingbai for the last time and said, "After your uncle's matter is resolved, if you really want to repay me, then sponsor my new law firm."
"no problem."
Chen Jingbai smiled, revealing one of his fangs, which looked even a little cute, but his face darkened the moment Shi Wang left.
At the same time, he was looking at the documents left by the previous man on the table, with some ambiguous amusement flashing in his eyes.
…
At the same time, on the other side, the Star Country.
Now it’s really the New Year.
However, due to the special nature of the company, even though it is the end of the year and tomorrow is New Year's Eve, everyone is still busy.
The company is overwhelmed by various announcements such as celebrity dinners and Spring Festival activities.
Even Jiang Wanning stayed up all night with everyone else, and she looked much more haggard and thinner than before.
"Boss Jiang, you've just recovered from a serious illness, so you should take care of your health."
