Jiang Chunian frowned upon hearing this: "The victims were Tang Hong and Lin Fei? Didn't I tell them to leave Lucheng, otherwise they would die? They didn't leave?"
"They're gone." Director Lu said hurriedly, "You told me to call the police. When they arrived, Tang Hong told them that he suspected someone was trying to murder him and seize his wealth. He hoped the police could help catch the mastermind, otherwise his life would be in jeopardy."

This is why there are often murders of cryptocurrency tycoons."
