Jiang Ning suspects that Lin Tao is the real culprit who killed Xu Jie, but the others don't know.
Especially Xu Jie's family, when they see the police arrest Jiang Ning, they will only think that she is the murderer, and may even take in the injured Lin Tao.
When the two arrived at Xu Jie's house, it was brightly lit and crowded with people.
Xu Jie was the only male heir in his father's branch of the family. He died before he could have any children, so naturally all the relatives and friends came to visit.
By this time, Xu's mother had fainted several times from crying and was surrounded by a group of people trying to comfort her.
Xue Mei and Lucy, however, each harbored their own ulterior motives, plotting how to take over the house for themselves.
Seeing the mess in their house, Jiang Ning figured Lin Tao wouldn't be hiding there, so she went home at Lin Chen's urging.
"Let's leave the finding of people and evidence to the police. We have nothing to hide, and Lin Tao will definitely be severely punished by law."
Lin Chen advised.
Still worried, Jiang Ning entered her spatial dimension after Lin Chen fell asleep and went to the train station to keep watch, fearing that Lin Tao might escape again.
However, when she arrived, the train station was already guarded by police to prevent the new suspect, Lin Tao, from escaping.
When they sent people to fetch Lin Tao, they couldn't find him, so he was listed as a suspect.
Seeing how helpful the police were, she felt relieved and went home.
At this time, Kun Kun, who had identified the body, and Ma Huijuan also returned home.
Seeing that no one was around, Ma Huijuan asked quietly:
"Kun Kun, have you really never met your father?"
Now, he's had plastic surgery, looks different, and is a murderer. You can't do anything foolish!
Kun Kun said with a stern face:
"Mom, he's just a suspect, how can you call him a murderer! I know my limits, let's go to sleep, we have school tomorrow!"
School has resumed classes, and he needs to go back to study.
Ma Huijuan didn't know what else to say, so she told him to go to bed early and then went back to her own room.
In the middle of the night, Kunkun came out of his room, went to the kitchen to get two steamed buns and a packet of pickled vegetables, and went to the storage room in the yard.
As soon as he entered, a man covered his mouth and held a knife to his neck.
Kun Kun didn't shout or yell, but silently handed him the steamed bun.
After Lin Tao saw him clearly, he let go of him and began to wolf down the steamed bun.
"Kun Kun, you are such a good boy. After I escape, I will definitely give you half of my family fortune."
He was very satisfied with his son.
Kun Kun forced a smile, "Dad, are you leaving again this time?"
Lin Tao said helplessly, "If Dad doesn't leave, the police will catch me and sentence me to death. I haven't seen you grow up yet, and I don't want to die."
Here's one hundred yuan. Go buy me a train ticket to Guangzhou for the next possible journey.
At that time, train tickets were not registered with real names; you could board the train as long as you had a ticket.
Lin Tao decided to use the same trick again, changing his appearance to sneak onto the train.
Once he leaves, no one can find him.
These charges will never be pinned on him again.
Kun Kun took the money and nodded emphatically, "Dad, don't worry, stay here and I'll definitely buy it for you."
After saying that, he picked up cotton swabs and ointment to apply medicine to his wounds.
During his fight with Xu Jie, Xu Jie deliberately scratched him, leaving many bloody marks that would probably take ten days to heal.
In short, he cannot be captured until his wounds have healed.
The police ruled out all possible scenarios involving people who had contact with Xu Jie, and ultimately focused their investigation on Lin Tao, who could not be found.
With Lin Tao's men nowhere to be found, the case reached a stalemate.
Jiang Ning was also being pointed at and talked about from behind.
“Xu Jie caused trouble at the factory last time and almost kidnapped someone’s child. He offended Jiang Ning, so it’s only natural that he was killed to silence him.”
"Who says otherwise? That person from R&F Group can't be found. They say he's a criminal suspect, and I think it's very likely he was silenced. It was done by someone from R&F Group."
All sorts of rumors started flying around.
This unfounded rumor directly impacted Fuqiang Group's new projects.
Many large projects rejected Fuqiang Group's bids outright during the bidding process.
The group hasn't started any new projects for a long time.
Not only was Fuqiang Group affected, but Xinchen Trading was also implicated.
Many export businesses have chosen to cooperate with other trading companies, and some companies that were originally cooperating well have also proposed to terminate their contracts early.
In a short time, the company's business shrank by half.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Ning called Wang Meizhu to his office to inquire about the import business.
Wang Meizhu shook her head.
"The situation is not optimistic. A thousand computers are already at sea and will arrive at the port soon. However, the department store is considering breaching the contract. I am contacting other shopping malls with import rights, but they are all hesitant to take over due to the rampant rumors."
Jiang Ning rubbed his forehead, feeling a bit of a headache. If those computers couldn't be sold, they would be stuck with him, and if he couldn't repay the loan, his cash flow would be tight, and the company would face the risk of bankruptcy.
She was just cooperating with the investigation, yet she was severely hurt by various rumors. There must be something fishy going on!
Just when she was completely baffled, Lin Qiao inadvertently learned that some tabloid reporters were publishing false information without conducting any investigation.
Many reports, although not explicitly naming Jiang Ning and Fuqiang Group, clearly implied to any discerning reader that the newspapers accused them of unfair competition that resulted in deaths.
The report also said that the murderer should be severely punished and the real culprit should not be allowed to escape justice.
Lin Qiao investigated the reporters who wrote these articles and concluded that they must have received bribes from R&F Group to write these reports and deliberately confuse the public.
"Xiaoqiao, could you do me a favor? I'd like to hold a press conference to explain the situation to the public in person."
That day, Jiang Ning made a request to Lin Qiao.
Rather than passively taking hits, it's better to confront the criticism head-on.
This was the first time Lin Qiao had attended a press conference, so she asked her what effect she wanted to achieve.
"I just want to tell all journalists in the news industry that I am open and honest and can withstand any questioning. I'll find a venue and set up the meeting; you help me invite as many journalist friends as possible. I will answer their questions in a public setting," Jiang Ning explained in detail.
Lin Qiao nodded to indicate that she understood, and then began to find the phone numbers of reporters from various TV stations and newspapers and started calling them.
They were all very interested when they heard that Jiang Ning would be answering their questions in public.
As far as they know, this method only exists abroad; no one in China dares to do it.
All interviews were conducted with questions provided in advance and the answers reviewed.
Who can guarantee that every word they say is logically sound and without a single error?
Is Jiang Ning really not afraid that a press conference might bring her an even bigger crisis?
