Chapter 2176: Chapter 2177: Be Wary of Everyone
“Indeed, you could say that.”
Liu Huasheng’s expression paused, and he sighed.
“I’ve already co to this point, so there’s no need for to beat around the bush with you.”
Lin Yi watched silently, remaining speechless and just listening.
“If possible, I’d rather you didn’t investigate this case any further. You’re a strong fighter, probably an excellent police officer, but in the end, you’re just a cop. Losing your job is a minor issue, but if you lose your life over this case, it wouldn’t be worth it for you.”
“For you to say sothing like that, this Pengcheng Chamber of Comrce seems to be pretty formidable.”
At this point in the case, Lin Yi wouldn’t give up for any reason.
Although he had caught Liu Huasheng, the current system task was still incomplete.
Based on Lin Yi’s guess, he probably wouldn’t be finished until he apprehended the people from the Pengcheng Chamber of Comrce.
After all, it was a task worth 150,000 Master level driving skills, so difficulty was a given.
Additionally, wearing this uniform, he couldn’t allow himself to give up halfway.
He had to deliver an explanation to those families who had lost their children.
“Far more powerful than you think, don’t take it lightly,” Liu Huasheng said, “If possible, just stop now. I’ve been caught, and you all will be credited for that.”
“I’ll decide what to do; I don’t need you to teach how to do my job,” Lin Yi said, “The information about them should be in the notebook you ntioned, right?”
“They have their nas, and so specific transaction information and timings. Your people can find it if they go there, but there isn’t much detailed information, just so basics. I don’t know how much you can make use of it.”
“That will be enough.”
Lin Yi patted Liu Huasheng’s shoulder, “You should have spoken up earlier, and you wouldn’t have had to go through all this trouble.”
“Heh…”
Liu Huasheng coldly chuckled, as if mocking his own helplessness.
“In my hotown, I have my parents. If they find out that I’ve snitched on all of them, they will kill my entire family.”
Lin Yi’s expression changed, and the atmosphere inside the interrogation room suddenly beca oppressive.
“Where is your hotown? Give your parents’ information,” Lin Yi said, “You’re definitely not getting out of this alive, but your parents are innocent, and I can keep them safe.”
Liu Huasheng looked up suddenly, “Really?”
“I can’t promise anything else, but I can ensure your parents’ safety.”
“Can you give so paper and a pen?”
Lin Yi walked out, returned with a piece of paper and a pen, and handed them to Liu Huasheng.
The latter left the necessary information on it.
“It’s all here; I hope you can do as you’ve promised.”
“Don’t worry. I may not be a good person, but I wouldn’t joke about this.”
“That’s enough for ,” Liu Huasheng said in a low voice, “With your abilities, being a cop is a waste. If you went out and made your own way, you would definitely be soone.”
“Are you suggesting I go rogue?”
“No, that’s not it,” Liu Huasheng lowered his voice and said, “I want to warn you about sothing.”
“Go on, it’s just the two of us now.”
“This is Shanwei. If you really want to handle this case, you have to be careful of everyone around you, even the people outside that door.”
Lin Yi didn’t say anything, just looked outside.
“I get your point.”
“That’s all I can say,” Liu Huasheng declared, “If possible, don’t let them interrogate again. Just get to the sentencing as soon as possible.”
“I’ll try.”
After responding, Lin Yi left the interrogation room.
At the mont, Ma Xinglong, Xu Jun, and Liu Mingqiang were all at the door, none of them had left.
Seeing Lin Yi, Liu Mingqiang’s eyebrows raised haughtily.
“Comrade from Zhong Hai, did you find out anything?”
“Nothing,” Lin Yi said with a smile, “Director Sun is impressive, truly admirable.”
Hearing Lin Yi’s complintary words, Liu Mingqiang’s arrogance seed to grow even more.
“Good to know. Young man, don’t be so eager to show off. It won’t get you far in the workplace.”
“Yes, yes, I understand.”
“The case is almost handled; there’s nothing left for you guys to do here in Shanwei,” Liu Mingqiang said impatiently, “Discussed it with your colleague and get ready to head back to Zhong Hai. We can handle the follow-up of this case over the phone.”
“Then I’ll leave it to Director Sun.”
Lin Yi nodded with a smile and then walked toward the break room.
From behind, Ma Xinglong glanced at Lin Yi, feeling that the sudden humility that had appeared in him did not fit with his character.
Lin Yi returned to the break room.
Hearing the sound at the door, Zhang Zixin opened her eyes, still groggy, and said:
“Lin Bro, you’re back.”
Lin Yi nodded, “Go wash your face, wake up, we have serious business to attend to.”
Hearing this, Zhang Zixin perked up and headed to the bathroom.
At the sa ti, Lin Yi woke up Gu Yiran and Zhang Peng, ready to deal with the follow-up matters.
“Did you get anything from the interrogation?”
“Liu Huasheng confessed. There’s a notebook hidden in his bedroom in Permanent Village; we’re going to retrieve it now. Staying here is pointless.”
“What’s recorded in the notebook? The upstream buyers?”
Lin Yi nodded, “It’s an organization called Pengcheng Chamber of Comrce.”
“Pengcheng Chamber of Comrce!” Gu Yiran raised his voice.
“You’re aware of this place?”
“It’s not that I know it, I’ve just heard so things.”
Gu Yiran combed his disheveled hair and said:
“Guangdong Province is one of the wealthiest provinces in the country, and Pengcheng is the leading economic city in China. So, this Pengcheng Chamber of Comrce has a lot of influence. If they are the ones behind this, it’s going to be very troubleso to handle.”
“Worrying about that now might be premature,” Lin Yi said, “Let’s first retrieve the notebook and see who’s involved before we proceed.”
“Let’s go.”
After a quick preparation, the four left the break room.
They had a brief conversation with Ma Xinglong and communicated about the case before leaving the Longhu Branch.
Once they left the branch office, it was already past four in the afternoon.
The group first had a al to satisfy their hunger, then rented a car, and headed towards Permanent Village.
The village was already deserted and appeared desolate and eerie.
Upon reaching the family shrine, it was sealed, and in just one night, it had beco desolate.
Zhang Peng drove the car around to the back of the shrine; Liu Huasheng’s house was sealed, too, but that wasn’t an issue for Lin Yi.
“I’ll go get the stuff; you should park the car further away, it’s too conspicuous.”
“Okay.”
After getting out of the car, Lin Yi walked to the wall and leaped directly into the courtyard to avoid damaging the seal outside.
Creak—
He gently pushed open the wooden door and entered Liu Huasheng’s residence—a simple two-room house with no remarkable features. He quickly found the Guan Yu Statue in the bedroom.
Ring ring ring—
Lin Yi’s phone rang; it was a call from Gu Yiran.
“I saw two guys heading towards the shrine, acting very suspicious; sothing doesn’t seem right.”
