Chapter 476 Speculating on the Mastermind



Ten minutes later, Shen Dong and Li Wenbin got into the police car.

Li Jie, with Ou Yongen in his car, followed closely behind the police car.

“Li sir, you don’t think that truck driver is one of my men, do you?” Shen Dong turned to look at Li Wenbin and asked.

Li Wenbin shook his head and said, "No. You're not that stupid."

Shen Dong asked, "Then why did you come to see me?"

Li Wenbin laughed and said, "Some work still needs to be done. Even if it wasn't you, I still have to question you to shut up some people above."

Shen Dong's eyes flashed, and he asked, "Is there intense infighting within your police department?"

Li Wenbin said, "It's more intense than you imagine. Although the 'American faction' hasn't said it outright, they are extremely dissatisfied with what you've done. Fortunately, you dealt with the Bihai Nightclub and other messy entertainment venues, giving them no opportunity to take advantage of you. Otherwise, they would have already taken action against you."

At this point, Li Wenbin reassured him, "However, you don't need to worry too much. We will absolutely not allow those Americans to suppress you at will."

Shen Dong sighed and said, "It's still because my foundation is not solid. If it were Li Ka-shing who was investing in the mainland, there probably wouldn't be so many problems."

Li Wenbin curled his lip and said, "Li Ka-shing is a knight of the United States and an exceptionally shrewd businessman. He would never take such a big risk to invest in the mainland. Even if he were to invest, he wouldn't dare to play this big game. The other three are the same. Ah Dong, although you come from Hung Hing, you have a patriotic heart, and we all admire you."

Shen Dong turned to look out the window and sighed, "The inland is the true home of the Chinese nation. Only when it becomes strong will Westerners truly respect us. I simply want to do my part for this long-suffering nation."

A hint of respect flashed in Li Wenbin's eyes as he said, "If you have the chance to meet Old Master Huo, you should have a lot in common with him."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Old Master Huo is living a secluded life these days, so it's best if I don't disturb him unnecessarily. Li Sir, let's talk about Zheng Tong. Who do you think killed him?"

Li Wenbin didn't answer, but instead asked, "What do you think?"

After pondering for a moment, Shen Dong said, "Li Ka-shing and his group probably don't have the guts, so the three major families can basically be ignored. The Americans are a possibility, but killing Zheng Tong wouldn't bring them much real benefit, so the possibility isn't very high."

Li Wenbin asked, "Where are the kidnappers?"

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Why would kidnappers kill him? Not only would they not get the money, but they would also attract strong attention from your police. They would only do that if they were out of their minds."

Li Wenbin asked, "What about the clubs?"

Shen Dong rolled his eyes and said, "If a gang had the guts to kill Zheng Tong, it wouldn't be a gang, it would be a terrorist organization."

Li Wenbin said, "If it's not kidnappers, not a gang, not one of the other three major families, not an American, then it can only be you, Mr. Shen, whose relationship with Zheng Tong is extremely bad."

Shen Dong laughed and said, "If Zheng Tong dies, not only will I get into a lot of trouble, but I won't earn a single penny. I would have to be crazy to send someone to kill him."

Li Wenbin asked, "So who is the person who most wants Zheng Tong to die?"

Shen Dong said irritably, "Li sir, the most likely answer has already been given, so why are you still pretending?"

Li Wenbin frowned and asked, "Could it really be Zheng Tong's wife, Hu Yali?"

With Zheng Tongyi's death, Hu Yali undoubtedly benefited the most.

She and Zheng Tong are the only legally married couple. If Zheng Tong dies before he leaves a will, Hu Yali will be the heir to the Zheng Group and will have equal inheritance rights with her son, Zheng Yuchuan.

The Cheng Group's assets are worth tens of billions of US dollars, and it owns more than 100 residential buildings, office buildings and commercial buildings on Hong Kong Island alone. Such a large fortune is enough to make Hu Yali take risks.

If she succeeds, she will immediately become the richest woman in Hong Kong.

Shen Dong said, "The most poisonous heart is that of a woman."

Li Wenbin asked, "What about Zheng Yuchuan? Could his kidnapping have been orchestrated by Hu Yali?"

Shen Dong said, "Even tigers don't eat their cubs. Hu Yali isn't that ruthless. If she really did it, then this woman is too formidable. Hehe, Li Sir, do you think she wants her son to come back now, or doesn't she?"

Li Wenbin shook his head and said, "Human hearts are unpredictable. Especially when faced with such great interests, it's not impossible for even a mother and son to turn against each other."

As the two chatted, the car slowly came to a stop at the police headquarters.

This was Shen Dong's first time here, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Li Wenbin said softly, "The four major families have a great influence in Hong Kong Island. This case will be handled entirely by Deputy Commissioner of Police Smith."

"Smith?"

Shen Dong's heart skipped a beat, and a playful smile appeared on his face.

After getting out of the car, Ou Yongen walked over in high heels.

"Li sir, I am Mr. Shen's lawyer. I should be able to go in with him, right?"

Li Wenbin nodded and said, "Of course."

Upon entering the police headquarters, Li Wenbin led Shen Dong and Ou Yongen to the interrogation room on the twelfth floor.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, the three of them ran into a short but imposing middle-aged man.

Au Wing-yan said softly, "He is Choi Yuen-ki, the Deputy Commissioner of Police of Hong Kong Island, and the leader of the Mainland faction."

Upon hearing the name Cai Yuanqi, Shen Dong immediately thought of the movie "Cold War 2".

In that movie, Choi Yuen-ki is a retired Commissioner of Police of Hong Kong Island with great ambitions. He stirs up a huge storm against the new Commissioner of Police, Lau Kit-fai, but ultimately fails.

Cai Yuanqi is currently the Deputy Commissioner of Police, which means he will definitely be the next Commissioner.

This is actually a good political resource for Shen Dong.

"Officer Choi."

Li Wenbin greeted Cai Yuanqi.

Cai Yuanqi nodded, turned his gaze to Shen Dong, and said, "Ah Bin, this must be Mr. Shen?"

Shen Dong extended his hand and said, "Director Cai, I've heard so much about you."

Cai Yuanqi shook hands with him and said, "Likewise. Mr. Shen, your investment in the mainland is truly a grand undertaking. Even our director was incredibly shocked when he heard about it, and it even shook the entire American government."

In one sentence, Cai Yuanqi told Shen Dong everything he wanted to say.

This means that Commissioner of Police Tels is not on the same side as Chen Dong, and the US government is extremely dissatisfied with his actions.

Shen Dong's smile widened, and he said, "It's nothing to be surprised about. Once the Hong Kong tycoons see the rapid development of the mainland, I believe they will also make large-scale investments. At that time, even if the United States has objections, it won't matter."

Cai Yuanqi smiled and said, "Mr. Shen is truly a man of few words. Let's go play golf together sometime."

Shen Dong said, "Then you'll have to teach me properly. To be honest, I've never even touched a golf club before."

Cai Yuanqi laughed heartily and said, "No problem, leave it to me."

The two exchanged contact information, and then Cai Yuanqi left.
