Reborn in 2000: Starting from Pursuing the Pure High School Beauty Desk Mate Chapter 606 : Better to Walk Together Than Be Lonely

Chapter 606: Better to Walk Together Than Be Lonely

Overnight.

Two major events occurred in Yunhai.

The first was a car accident, which took place 200 ters north of the Yunhai University gate.

One of the vehicles involved in the accident was a Wuling Hongguang minivan, with two people inside who died on the spot.

However, according to the investigation, both were fugitive suspects, wanted for several major cris.

The Wuling Hongguang they were driving at the ti of the accident had been stolen from a roadside earlier that evening.

When the accident occurred, both n reeked strongly of alcohol, clearly a case of drunk driving.

The other party involved in the accident was quite interesting.

According to his own statent, he was a car thief who had stolen a BMW X5 from the roadside that night. He had originally planned to take it for a joyride and then find a place to sell it secretly for so quick cash.

Unexpectedly, he encountered the two fugitives who were drunk driving, and the two vehicles collided.

The two fugitives died on the spot, while the car thief nad Li Yang survived thanks to the BMW's airbags successfully deploying.

At the accident scene, trainee traffic police Zhang Yi and his ntor were responsible for investigating the crash.

"Master, sothing doesn't seem right," Zhang Yi said, panting as he ran over.

"Master, I just asked around, and the situation seems odd."

The old ntor put away his cara and turned to look.

"The surveillance caras near the accident scene are still there, but all the shops that had installed those caras were burglarized last night."

"All the surveillance equipnt was stolen."

The old traffic policeman frowned. "All of it was stolen?"

"Yes, a total of three caras."

Zhang Yi pointed, "This shop, the one across the street, and the one next to the internet cafe... without exception, all three shops were burglarized."

"I asked the owners, and nothing else was taken, only the computers with the surveillance footage were stolen."

"Master, this... it's too much of a coincidence, isn't it? I think there's definitely sothing fishy about this accident."

The old policeman didn't answer, but instead pointed to the tire marks on the ground.

"Based on my experience, there were a total of three cars..."

"After the BMW collided with the minivan, the fugitives in the minivan didn't die imdiately."

"Look at the brake marks here, they clearly couldn't have been from the BMW, this must have been from a third car..."

"This car ran over and killed the fugitives who had just gotten out of their vehicle... otherwise, there's no way to explain why their bodies were found in that position."

Zhang Yi's eyes widened. "So there really is sothing fishy going on?"

"Soone is lying."

Before the old policeman could speak, his phone rang.

Zhang Yi watched as his ntor answered the call, his expression becoming serious.

Zhang Yi couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

The old policeman's expression was a bit strange.

"The owner of the stolen BMW from last night has been found."

"Who is it?"

"It's the big star, Wen Wan."

"Wen..."

Zhang Yi's eyes suddenly widened.

"This... how is that possible?"

"Could it be..."

The old policeman raised his head, interrupting Zhang Yi's words.

"That's enough. Don't say anything more."

"What I just told you, don't tell anyone else. Keep it to yourself."

Zhang Yi looked confused, "Why? Isn't it our duty to uncover the truth?"

The old ntor looked at his apprentice, who had just graduated and was still full of passion and a sense of justice, feeling both proud and sowhat rueful.

"You've just started working, so let teach you the first key point."

"Rember this. Not every case has a truth that can be revealed."

Zhang Yi looked bewildered, or rather, he seed unable to accept this.

"But as..."

"Do you know what would happen if the identity of this BMW owner was exposed? Our Yunhai would beco the target of nationwide criticism..."

"Moreover, what we just discussed was only our speculation. Without surveillance footage, how can you prove that the big star was at the scene last night?"

"I just received a call from the bureau chief. This case has already been classified."

"Do you understand what that ans?"

Zhang Yi stood there, dumbfounded.

Even though he had just started working, he understood what this implied.

It ant that soone from above had spoken.

The higher-ups didn't want the incident to get out of control.

Seeing his apprentice still in a daze, the old policeman sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

"The deceased were two wanted criminals who were also involved in murder cases. No one cares about the so-called truth."

"Or rather, if the higher-ups say this is the truth, then this is the truth."

With that, the old policeman put away his cara, abandoning the plan to continue the investigation.

He left his apprentice standing alone, lost in thought.

The car accident didn't cause any ripples in Yunhai, and even the dia didn't report on it.

After all, so many car accidents happen across the country every day.

Today, the dia's focus was on another major case.

Last night, more than a dozen large entertainnt venues in Yunhai were suddenly invaded by a group of unidentified individuals who engaged in vandalism.

The two groups even had an ard confrontation on the main street.

The impact was extrely negative.

The authorities took it very seriously, issuing a notice stating that all troublemakers would be severely punished.

Compared to a small car accident, this kind of incident was more attractive to the general public's interest.

Especially when soone mysteriously posted on the forum that all of the damaged venues belonged to the Zhao family.

This sparked a frenzy of gossip and conspiracy theories among people.

Revenge killing, retaliation from rivals, or underworld revenge... all kinds of analyses were presented confidently, as if they were the actual parties involved in the incident.

However, soon after, new explosive information was revealed.

Soone directly posted the Zhao family's rise to power on the forum.

Wow, starting as small-ti gangsters, collecting protection money, engaging in robbery and looting to accumulate wealth, then opening bathhouses, suppressing competitors, forcibly acquiring businesses... gradually expanding their empire.

After accumulating enough wealth, they began to infiltrate other industries, gradually laundering their money and going legitimate, finally becoming one of the top families in Yunhai.

It was as if the Zhao family's dirty laundry had been aired for all to see.

As soon as this post ca out, it completely ignited the netizens' curiosity for gossip.

In an instant, everyone's focus shifted to the Zhao family.

In the hospital.

Chen Fan, wearing a hat and sunglasses, passed through a group of entertainnt reporters downstairs, then took the elevator up to the VIP ward upstairs.

He knocked and entered the room.

When Wen Wan, lying in bed, saw Chen Fan co in, her expression imdiately beca joyful.

"Who are you?" Wen Wan's manager asked vigilantly.

But Wen Wan quickly said, "Sister Zhao, this is my friend."

"Could you step out for a mont and let talk to him?"

The manager looked worried, "But the doctor said you need to rest."

"It's fine, I'll just talk to him for a few minutes."

Only then did the manager reluctantly walk out, giving Chen Fan a wary look as she passed by.

After the manager left, Chen Fan walked to the bedside, pulled up a chair, and sat down.

Wen Wan lay in bed, smiling at Chen Fan without speaking.

Chen Fan took off his hat and sunglasses.

Looking at this woman, he sighed.

"You were too reckless."

But Wen Wan smiled and said, "I thought you wouldn't co."

"You were willing to risk your life to crash into soone for your girlfriend, so can I."

Wen Wan spoke very calmly.

"If it weren't for you, I would have given up on this life long ago."

"At most, I'm just giving it back to you."

Looking at this smiling woman, Chen Fan was silent for the first ti.

Because he realized that all his previous tactics of feigned indifference and rejection had been shattered by Wen Wan's crash.

As Chen Fan was still considering how to speak, Wen Wan, being very understanding, smiled and said,

"You don't need to say anything."

"And you don't need to feel guilty about this, it was all my own choice."

"Actually, just knowing what was in your heart last night was enough for , I don't dare ask for more."

Hearing these words, Chen Fan fell silent again.

For the next while, neither of them spoke, just sitting in silence.

Ten minutes later, Chen Fan stood up, preparing to say goodbye.

Wen Wan stared at Chen Fan's back and said softly, "You don't need to co anymore after this. I... I might be discharged and leave Yunhai soon. The movie is about to be released and needs promotion..."

Chen Fan walked to the door, suddenly stopped, and turned to look back.

He didn't respond to Wen Wan's words, but instead looked at her face and spoke seriously.

"I think I still owe you a face-to-face answer."

"I've thought about it carefully. Rather than being lonely on the sidelines, it's better to walk side by side."

"Are you willing to be my companion on this journey?"
