Chapter 445 A Plan to Turn the Tide
Everything Qin Chuan had before his disappearance was on the deceased, so the two must be related. Starting with him will definitely lead to new clues.
But did the murderer deliberately disfigure his face? Was it to confuse them, or was there some other reason?
"Director Wu, then I'll trouble you to investigate further and let me know if there's any news."
"Don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly if it happens in my jurisdiction."
After exchanging words with Director Wu, Shen Jiheng left with Han Xi.
Just as he got into the car, his phone rang again. Han Xi was interrupted several times and didn't have a chance to speak for more than ten minutes.
Seeing her expression, Shen Jiheng put down his phone, put his hand on her shoulder, and said, "What do you want to tell me?"
"I'm wondering if Assistant Qin has already escaped, and this deceased person is just a smokescreen for him to get away."
There are only two possibilities: either the murderer deliberately set up a trap to mislead them, serving as a warning.
Another possibility is that Qin Chuan had an accident and used the deceased to cover up his identity and escape capture.
Shen Jiheng thought it made sense. They had focused all their attention on Bo Siye and hadn't considered that Qin Chuan might also have a way to escape.
So what do you want to do?
"Since the deceased's appearance and the physical evidence on his body match Qin Chuan, and his identity hasn't been revealed yet, why not test Bo Siye?"
Shen Jiheng understood from her expression: "You mean you want to say that the deceased was Qin Chuan who went to cause trouble for Bo Siye, and you can tell from his reaction whether Qin Chuan is still in his hands or not."
Han Xi nodded: "That's exactly what I mean. Assistant Qin has been with you for over ten years. He's agile and clever, so maybe that's his way of getting away."
Seeing that Shen Jiheng was still hesitant, he continued, "Didn't you also say that Bo Siye's goal hasn't been achieved yet, and he won't get rid of him so quickly? Why don't we give it a try?"
After considering it, Shen Jiheng agreed: "What you said makes sense, but I know Qin Chuan. If he escapes, he will definitely contact me."
Han Xi reminded him, "These are extraordinary times, so there must be a reason why he's doing this. In any case, there's no harm in giving it a try."
Seeing how hard she was trying to help him, Shen Jiheng nodded and said, "Okay, we'll do as you say. To avoid being exposed, I'll give Director Wu a heads-up."
Han Xi nodded, waiting for him to make the contact.
After everything was ready, Han Xi took a deep breath and said, "Now we need to calm our anger. When you see him, rush up and attack him directly. Act as if it's real."
Shen Jiheng glanced at her and couldn't help but laugh.
"I didn't realize you had so many ideas."
"They were all forced into it. If we can confirm that Assistant Qin escaped, then you don't need to worry so much."
Shen Jiheng didn't mention his worries in any of his words, but his expression had already betrayed him.
The two discussed their strategy along the way, and rushed into the Bo family compound after arriving at it.
Li Yuan couldn't stop Shen Jiheng at all, so he could only warn him sternly: "You're trespassing on private property. If you don't leave now, I'll call the police."
Shen Jiheng arrived aggressively, his face full of anger, which made the bodyguards hesitant to approach him.
"Make Bo Siye come out to see me, or none of you will have an easy time today."
After saying that, he kicked away the person blocking his way, and no one could stop him.
"That's really impulsive. What made you bring the eldest son of the Shen family here? Oh no, you're not a descendant of the Shen family, you should be the young master of the Bo family."
Bo Siyue's mocking voice came from inside the house, followed by several skilled bodyguards.
He's very protective of his life now and has requested bodyguards to protect him throughout.
Shen Jiheng stepped forward in a fit of rage, and Bo Siye's bodyguard immediately stood in front of him.
Shen Jiheng clenched his fists and glared at him angrily, questioning, "You killed Qin Chuan, you bastard, why did you kill him?"
Bo Siyue looked somewhat helpless and shrugged, replying, "I don't know what you're talking about. What does your assistant's disappearance have to do with me?"
"You still dare to argue? According to the clues when he disappeared, it was your people who took him away. Now the police have found his body, and I have already gone to the police station to confirm that it is Qin Chuan."
Shen Jiheng's face was full of murderous intent, and his hatred for the person in front of him seemed genuine.
Han Xi also said angrily, "You really went too far. Even if you want to deal with Ji Heng, Assistant Qin is innocent. How can you be so cruel?"
Bo Siye looked gloomy and said irritably, "This has nothing to do with me."
Han Xi pressed, "I asked you before if Assistant Qin was in your hands, and you admitted it. But now we see his body. How do you explain that? Didn't you kill him?"
Bo Siye seemed somewhat agitated, indicating that something had indeed happened.
Han Xi asked again, "Si Ye, aren't you tired? Can you sleep at night? You have to arrange bodyguards to protect you whenever you go out. Do you want to spend the rest of your life like this?"
Han Xi's probing questions made Bo Siye fall into deep thought; who would want to live such a life?
Shen Jiheng said angrily, "Don't waste your breath on him. He killed Qin Chuan, and I will make him pay with his life."
Bo Siye blurted out, "He fought back desperately and ended up falling into the water. It has nothing to do with us."
Finally hearing him bring up this matter, Han Xi said, "But now that he's dead, it's related to you. We won't let this go."
Bo Siyue looked conflicted, but stubbornly said, "Do whatever you want, but I didn't initially want his life. I just wanted to use him to threaten him."
Just as Han Xi had expected, Qin Chuan had already escaped. As for why he hadn't contacted them, there must be other reasons.
She turned her head and winked at Shen Jiheng, who understood and blinked back.
Shen Jiheng gritted his teeth and said, "Bo Siye, you just wait. I'll make you pay with your life for Qin Chuan."
Bo Siye tilted his head back, completely ignoring him.
Han Xi stepped forward and took his arm.
"Ji Heng, let's go back and find evidence. We must bring the evildoers to justice."
Shen Jiheng glared at him angrily and then left with Han Xi.
Bo Siye frowned as he watched the two figures disappear. Although he had considered getting rid of Qin Chuan, now was not the time.
Now that the person is dead, Shen Jiheng became so agitated and came to cause trouble, which has intensified the hatred.
After getting on the bus, Shen Jiheng immediately analyzed the situation.
"You guessed right. These were indeed not illusions created by Bo Siye, but rather something Qin Chuan did on purpose. However, one thing is certain: he must have been injured."
Han Xi nodded: "Assistant Qin is hiding so that Bo Siye will think he's dead and won't bother with him anymore, saving you trouble. He truly deserves to be your special assistant."
Han Xi praised Qin Chuan's intelligence and resourcefulness in being able to deceive everyone in this way.
Shen Jiheng said worriedly, "The deceased had multiple injuries, and he must have had the same. We need to find him as soon as possible to determine the situation."
“You’re right. We also need to know the identity of the deceased, and we must keep it absolutely confidential so that Bo Siye’s side doesn’t notice anything amiss.”
Although there are still many things that are not clear, the good news is that Qin Chuan is alive and has escaped danger.
