Chapter 108: Clarity



Li Nanshan walked into Director Lei's office and said he just wanted to take another look at Honghua and asked Xiaoxi to take another look.

"Comrade Nanshan, it's not that I don't want to show it to you. The evidence has been sent for inspection and is not here." Director Lei lit a cigarette and said.

"Then I'll wait here." Li Nanshan said, and really sat there and waited seriously.

Director Lei shook his head and walked out with his bag. "Wait if you want."

Li Nanshan didn't just sit there and wait. He called Zhao Bin and told him some things, then called his assistant and told him some things too, and then he waited seriously.

Director Lei came back and he was still there. Seeing that it was time for dinner, the director asked him if he wanted to eat.

"Food, please." Li Nanshan was not polite at all.

Director Lei couldn't do anything about him, so he made a phone call and said angrily, "Just wait."

After Li Nanshan finished his meal, the medicine appeared in front of him.

"Please send it to Xiaoxi for a look." Li Nanshan was becoming more and more demanding.

"I really owe you two." Director Lei shook his head.

"Isn't it your credit that the truth of the case came to light so early? Director Lei, don't worry, we will never take credit for it." Li Nanshan said.

Director Lei was unable to refute, "You are right!"

Tao Xiaoxi looked at it carefully, and his face became heavier the more he looked. This red flower turned out to be from his own garden.

The safflowers in her garden were dark red, with slender, bright-colored stamens. She placed a safflower in hot water, and the surrounding area slowly began to glow orange-yellow. The flower slowly fell straight down, gradually dyeing the water yellow. Such exquisite safflowers were rare, and Fenglai was certain that only her family had them.

Is there a traitor?

Tao Xiaoxi thought about it for a long time but could not find a solution. She could not imagine who would collude with outsiders to frame her.

"Except for the safflower stored in the clinic, where else can you get it? Think about it carefully." Li Nanshan reminded.

"It's a factory. However, precious medicines like safflower are directly handled by Big Brother. Ordinary employees don't have access to them. However, there are many processing steps, so some people do come into contact with them."

"Where else is there?" Li Nanshan asked again.

"At home, I usually use it to make tea, but I haven't been making it much lately. Maybe there are still some left at home."

"My hometown, Mantou Village?" Li Nanshan thought about it. How did he return to Mantou Village?

Suddenly he remembered something and asked anxiously, "When you lived in the Sun family before, I saw you drink safflower tea. Is it possible that the Sun family still has it?"

Tao Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said, "I think so. I put it in a glass jar, but I forgot to take it out after I moved out."

"I'm going to the Sun family." Li Nanshan stood up immediately.

"Did you think of something?"

"I'm not sure yet. I need to verify it. Do you have the key?"

"Yes, it's in the second drawer of the bedside table at home, under the title deed."

"Okay, if you bear with it for a while, I will let you out as soon as possible." Li Nanshan took a last look at his wife and left in a hurry.

Tao Xiaoxi was still a little unresponsive. Li Nanshan had never shown such a hateful look in his eyes, as if he was avenging old grudges and new ones. Could it be that this matter was related to Sun Wangcai?

But Sun Wangcai has already gone south to work, so it is impossible for him to have the ability to clone himself.

Li Nanshan first went back home to get the key, and then went straight to Lao Sun's house in Mantou Village.

But there was no need for a key, the door had already been pried open.

The door was ajar, the lock having been lost long ago. The room was in a mess, clearly having been rummaged through.

Li Nanshan walked straight into Sun Wangcai's room. The eight-immortal table was also in a mess. The half-eaten bowl of pickles had grown long green hairs, and there was rat droppings scattered on the table, which was really disgusting. Li Nanshan suppressed his nausea and searched for it. Finally, he found the glass jar that his wife mentioned on the floor at the corner of the table. It was empty and had been thrown to the ground.

He picked up the can and wrapped it in newspaper. He left everything else in the house as it was. He left the door ajar and strode out.

He did not return to the detention center, but went to Yao Youhua's home.

When Yao Youhua's mother saw that it was Li Nanshan who came, she was very enthusiastic. She offered him a seat and poured him water. Li Nanshan smiled and asked where Yao Youhua was.

"Youhua is not at home. She went to work." said Yao's mother.

"She asked me to find her a job, but why didn't she tell me after she found one?" Li Nanshan said.

Upon hearing this, Yao's mother's brows lit up and she hurriedly explained, "It's just something that happened recently. I definitely haven't had time to tell you yet."

"Oh, then what job did she find? If it's good, I won't have to bother finding one for her." Li Nanshan pretended to be attentive.

"A distant relative has a farm. He said he went there to milk goats and raise chickens," Yao's mother replied.

"Yeah, this job is dirty and tiring." Li Nanshan smiled.

Yao's mother sighed, "Who says it's not true? But my daughter has a hard life. It's good enough that she can have a job now. We dare not force her to do anything else. But if you can find her an easy job, our whole family will be grateful to you."

"Well, I do happen to have a relatively easy job. Ask her if she's willing to give it a try." Li Nanshan had an idea.

"But I can't find her for the time being." Yao's mother said anxiously.

"Do you know where it is?"

Yao's mother thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be Zhang Yecun."

"Isn't it from our place?" Li Nanshan asked carefully.

"No, it's several villages away. It's a bit far, so she usually doesn't come home."

"Okay, I got it. I'll try to contact her." Li Nanshan left the Yao family.

Isn’t Zhangye Village the village where Qian Tiehua lives? And Qian Tiehua’s family is the richest family in Zhangye Village, raising a flock of sheep and cattle, as well as pheasants and wild ducks.

Li Nanshan sensitively realized that he could no longer act alone in the next matter. He racked his brains and thought, who can he trust now?

After thinking it over again and again, he decided to tell Director Lei that he was a veteran who had fought in wars and had a strong character and righteousness. It was also he who handled the case of Sun Wangcai being detained in the detention center before, so the two of them had some friendship.

Li Nanshan got in the car and went straight back to the city.

What he didn't know was that as soon as he left, Yao Youhua's eldest brother came back, and Yao's mother told her son that Li Nanshan had come.

She had wanted to get some praise from her son. Li Nanshan was such a respectable person now, and he was even thinking of finding a job for Youhua. She felt proud just thinking about it. But after hearing this, her son not only did not praise her, but scolded her: You are really senile. His wife is still in custody in the police station. He is here to trick you!

Yao's mother was horrified. "What should we do then?"

"I'll call Youhua." After saying this, Yao Youbing hurried to the old branch secretary's house to borrow a phone.
