The rest of the Qin family tried to use the old man's remaining connections to inquire about the situation and try to gamble on a last chance of survival—unfortunately, they had asked too many people for help during this period, and no one was stupid. Moreover, Qin Lezhang's many troubles had already worn down the goodwill these people had previously shown, so when the Qin family was in trouble this time, no one wanted to lend a helping hand.
It can only be said that Qin Lezhang's fate was sealed the moment he began to commit evil deeds by abusing his family background.
Finally, before Old Master Qin could even get off his hospital bed, the investigation team arrived.
When the old man in bed opened his eyes and coldly looked at the group of people waiting outside the ward, he knew that the Qin family was completely finished this time.
Qin Mubai closed his eyes, regretting for the umpteenth time that he hadn't disciplined Qin Lezhang properly, letting this fool bring them utter disaster!
But what other options are there?
The suspect hadn't given anything away, and even now, he still didn't know who the mastermind was.
Qin Mubo gave a self-deprecating laugh.
The people outside rushed in.
A man in uniform, with a serious expression, walked in, took out his identification, faced the old man, and said in a slightly cold but solemn voice: "Comrade Qin Mubai, we are from the Beijing Municipal Supervisory Commission... We are currently investigating you for suspected serious violations of discipline and law. Please cooperate immediately..."
Looking at the documents in front of him, Qin Mubai's chest heaved more and more noticeably, until finally he fainted again...

Xiao He had no idea that he had almost angered Old Master Qin to death. At that moment, he was on set filming the latest scene of "The Legend of Chasing the Wind".
Song Chenye and Liu Zhilin's visit did not go smoothly.
The legendary "Master of Chiba Manor" was unwilling to see them, but fortunately, the master's sister was related to Liu Zhilin by blood. Relying on this slight kinship, she finally agreed to let the two of them into the manor.
There is a large lake in the resort, with trees and vegetation on both sides. Only in the center of the lake stands an ancient pavilion, with silk fluttering inside and faint music rippling across the calm lake surface.
A woman dressed in a white gauze dress sat gracefully behind a gauze curtain, revealing only a faint, indistinct silhouette.
The maid who had led the way bowed slightly to the figure, then turned and quietly left.
Song Chenye listened to the zither music that vaguely lingered in her memory, and became somewhat engrossed.
He narrowed his eyes, gripped his sword in his right hand, and stared warily at the mysterious figure behind the veil, his lips pressed tightly together.
Liu Zhilin, on the other hand, was relaxed and leisurely, unfolding his fan and swaying it gently to the rhythm of the music, his face showing a look of rapture, as if he really liked the piece.
Neither of them interrupted the music, and the already somewhat chilly atmosphere became even more eerie as the mournful and sorrowful melody grew.
Suddenly, a breeze began to blow across the lake.
A gentle breeze swept by, lifting the veil just in time to reveal a graceful figure standing before the zither inside the pavilion, though her face remained hidden.
Outside the pavilion, a tall and handsome young swordsman stood calmly, while those inside could only just see the sword he held tightly in his hand.
But the next moment, the beautiful music suddenly broke down.
