Chapter 34 The Opium Mystery 6: Approaching the Truth



Cheng Muyun felt a surge of anger rising within him. "Let's go to the church in the east of the city!"

But Chen Hede stopped him, saying, "Wait a moment, young marshal."

Cheng Muyun pushed him away in disgust, "What are you doing?"

Chen Hede said, "Young Marshal, the Liang family hasn't shown their true colors yet. If you take down the church directly, you might alert them."

Cheng Muyun looked at Chen Hede, "What do you want to say?"

Xu Zhuohua couldn't help but look at Chen Hede. The expression on his face clearly showed that he had planned everything in advance.

“I’ll take Huang Sanchong away in a grand manner, and then you can pretend to continue looking for Miss Xu and ask Liang Shaozun for help, so that he thinks you don’t suspect him. He knows that Huang Sanchong will definitely reveal the church’s warehouse and will definitely secretly move the things away. Why doesn’t the young marshal arrest him on the spot?”

Xu Zhuohua had to admire Chen Hede; he was truly insidious!

If he hadn't wanted to cooperate with Cheng Muyun, he probably wouldn't know where he died when he was kidnapped.

Cheng Muyun thought for a moment and looked Chen Hede up and down.

Chen Hede asked, "Why is the young marshal looking at me like that?"

Cheng Muyun said, "I used to wonder how you, so young and with no background, managed to climb to the position of deputy director. Now I know, you have the heart of a ruthless man and the appearance of a crane."

Xu Zhuohua paused for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, she realized that Cheng Muyun's words were very apt.

Cunning and ruthless, elegant and dignified, Chen Hede is a man of cunning and ruthlessness with a crane-like appearance.

I wonder how many people he's deceived with that cold-hearted face.

Chen Hede smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, young marshal."

Cheng Muyun raised an eyebrow. "I'm really curious, why do you hate the Liang family so much?"

Yes, why is Chen Hede so determined to target the Liang family, even at the cost of cooperating with Cheng Muyun, whom he doesn't know well?

Xu Zhuohua thought back carefully and realized that there seemed to be no historical records about Chen Hede, his background, hometown, or future. Because he died too young, no one would bother to learn about his life.

The only person who knew about his background was probably Mei Heming, but Mei Heming, who later achieved great success, refused to mention Chen Heming again.

Chen Hede's story was not passed down.

Cheng Muyun received no answer and pressed further: "Deputy Director Chen, if you don't want to talk about it now, then I'm afraid I can no longer cooperate with you."

Cheng Muyun walked to Xu Zhuohua's side, took her hand, and was about to lead her away when he said, "Since Deputy Director Chen is unwilling to cooperate, let's just forget about it."

Chen Hede shouted in a panic, "Aren't you going to avenge the young marshal?"

Cheng Muyun stood still, and Xu Zhuohua clearly felt his body stiffen. "This is all your one-sided story. It is still unknown whether Liang Shaozun was the arsonist. It is a bit too idealistic for you to use this reason to bind me."

The two walked towards the door, and the soldiers in the courtyard also put away their guns and followed.

Xu Zhuohua looked at Cheng Muyun's lips. He was clearly waiting for Chen Hede to confess to him, and he was determined to do so.

"I'll talk!"

Sure enough, Chen Hede couldn't hold back any longer and said, "I'll talk!"
