Chapter 744: Li Guang's Family's Network
The monkey nodded.
"That's right."
"Li Rui returned to China a few years ago. The reason he was able to gain a foothold in Tianjin so quickly was because he had a protective umbrella in Beijing."
"I've also found out about this protective umbrella. Li Rui didn't deliberately hide it and was even eager to make it public."
Cheng Gang couldn't wait to ask, "Who is his protector?"
The monkey said, "The Qu family in Jing City."
"The Qu family?" Cheng Gang's eyes widened. "Is that the Qu from the military district?"
"Yes, it's their family." Monkey continued, "To be more precise, it's the Qushou family."
Cheng Gang knew about the Qu family because Commander Qu’s eldest son, Qu Shou, was arrested on suspicion of human trafficking.
The group of human traffickers led by Sister Hong are extremely cunning and have been roaming around Beijing to commit crimes.
They would disguise themselves as a babysitter, visit the home, and after gaining the owner's trust, take the child away and hide in a very secret place.
If it weren't for Ye Rou's sharp nose and her help to the police in arresting them, I'm afraid this group of people would not have been caught yet.
Ye Rou was even featured in the newspaper for this.
The one who helped Sister Hong and her gang was Qu Shou. This guy was blinded by money and would do anything for gold bars.
But how did Li Rui know Qu Shou in Tianjin?
Thinking this, he asked.
Monkey said, "Qu Shou doesn't know Li Rui. I heard that Li Rui's father and Qu Shou had a good relationship. Some time ago, before the Qu family fell, Li Guang sent someone to give Qu Shou's wife a South Sea pearl necklace."
——When Ye Rou went to the Liang family for the first time, Ji Yan invited many people to her home in order to give her a warning, including Fang Xunying. Fang Xunying also showed off her pearl necklace to everyone.
Cheng Gang frowned, his tone puzzled. "According to the investigation, Li Rui's father, Li Guang, went abroad early in life and hasn't been back in all these years. How could he be on good terms with the Qu family?"
Monkey said: "It's true that he never returned to China, but his wife has some connections with the military region."
Cheng Gang suddenly understood.
Li Guang married two wives successively. His first wife died of complications during childbirth after giving birth to Li Rui. After that, Li Guang married his second wife.
His second wife heard that her parents were poisoned and assassinated, and the murderer has not been found for many years.
Her brother Li Cheng's leg was disabled during a mission in his early years, but later recovered with the care of his wife, who is her distant cousin.
Li Cheng had a good career. He rose through the ranks after demobilization. After retiring from the army, he transferred to the government and continued to have a successful career.
Before Cheng Gang left Beijing, Director Jiang specifically told him that he must not take action against the Li family without evidence, because Li Cheng might be transferred to Beijing soon.
I didn't expect that there is such a connection after all the twists and turns.
Monkey continued, "After the Qu family fell, Li Rui remained quiet for a while. During this time, he gradually stopped the human trafficking business and began to focus on the smuggling of cultural relics."
"Snap!" Cheng Gang clapped his hands and said excitedly, "Everything makes sense now."
"The smuggling of cultural relics in Beijing wasn't so rampant before. So this is the reason!"
He patted the monkey on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, thanks to you!"
Cheng Gang didn't expect the trip to Jinshi to be so smooth. He figured everything out right from the start, all thanks to the monkey.
Jiang Chen poured a bucket of cold water on him: "Don't get excited too early."
Cheng Gang had a bad feeling and looked at the monkey.
Monkey sighed and said, "I heard all this from Sister Hao. I followed Li Rui for a long time."
"Li Rui is an extremely cautious person. He always leaves these tasks to his subordinates and never shows up in public. He has also made many donations and has been featured in many Jinshi newspapers. People in Jinshi always give him a thumbs up when they mention him."
"It's very difficult to find evidence to convict him."
Cheng Gang's brows furrowed as he listened. "Then we'll start with the people around him. We'll eventually catch him if we peel the onion layer by layer."
"This is the safest way." Monkey took out a stack of photos from the drawer of the table behind him. The first one was a photo of a young man.
Cheng Gang took the photo and looked at it carefully.
The photo was obviously taken secretly. The young man had a buzz cut, broken eyebrows, and a gloomy face. His facial features were delicate and fair, but one could still feel a sense of hostility through the photo.
"This is Li Rui's adopted son, Li Hu. I heard he's an orphan, raised by Li Rui since childhood. He's extremely loyal to Li Rui, and Li Rui leaves all the shameful things to him."
Upon hearing that he was particularly loyal to Li Rui, Cheng Gang wiped his face in worry.
Seeing his worried look, Jiang Chen said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? This is only your first day here."
When Cheng Gang heard this, he agreed. It was already quite good to have achieved these results on the first day.
That was all the monkey knew. Cheng Gang and Jiang Chen didn't want to stay for long, so after they finished chatting, they said goodbye to the monkey and hurried out.
Jiang Chen walked in slowly, but walked back in a hurry.
Cheng Gang was having a hard time chasing him and asked him hurriedly, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm going to make a phone call." Jiang Chen's lips curled up slightly, and there was a rare warmth in his eyes.
"..." Cheng Gang accidentally ate a mouthful of dog food and burped.
Jiang Chen ran to the phone booth across the street.
Cheng Gang planned to wait for him in the car.
When I was about to leave the alley, I saw a group of young girls gathered in front of a store, marveling at the sight.
Cheng Gang thought something had happened and rushed in to see what was happening.
After seeing the situation inside clearly, Cheng Gang: "..."
Gao Ming and Meng Guankun were feeling dizzy. They said they were going to look for Jiang Chen, but as soon as they entered the alley, they were entangled.
I was impatient at first, but when I heard the word "sleep", I felt sleepy and agreed immediately.
Seeing that they agreed so readily, the young girl thought they were two fat sheep.
Her house was a massage parlor, which was blocked by a curtain. There was a small hall with two beds inside.
As soon as the two of them entered, they rushed to the bed.
The young girl laughed at their impatience and was about to call her sisters when she turned around and heard deafening cheers.
Only then did we realize that the two men were fast asleep on the bed and couldn't be woken up even if we called them. The shop was full of young girls and we couldn't lift them up.
The people whose business had been robbed heard the commotion in the store and came over with their men to laugh at her, which led to the scene that Cheng Gang saw.
Cheng Gang stood at the intersection, looking at his two teammates who were sleeping soundly in the store with their faces flushed by the red light, then looked at the corner of the street, and was about to call his wife to say goodnight with a love-brained mind.
He looked up to the sky and sighed deeply.
With his stupid teammates and his love-sick brain, he suddenly felt a darkness in front of his eyes.
