Chapter 588: Chapter 588: Demoted
Shen Cang pushed a folder over, “Read it yourself, if you don’t understand, ask Xiangxiang.”
The captain of the fourth team nodded eagerly and began to leaf through it.
His breathing beca increasingly unsteady.
“A facade! The paper people were just a facade! I’ve been deceived!”
“Who is it! Who on earth is the criminal!”
His eyes, bloodshot, stared intently at Xiangxiang, desperate for an answer.
Xiangxiang sighed, “It’s the… youngest son of the late restaurant owner.”
“Him?” The captain of the fourth team shook his head in disbelief, his lips trembling, “I personally interrogated him, how could it… how could it be him?”
The captain of the fourth team flipped through the docunts again, his voice hoarse, “A sacrifice, the explosions were to prepare the sacrificial offerings. The Formation was to enhance Feng Shui. Those were his own father! His own elder brother! Why would he do this, all just for so external possessions?”
Xiangxiang cast her eyes down, her own eyes reflecting deep incomprehension, “He must have traded for a wish, and that wish is most likely culinary skills.”
“Culinary skills?” The captain of the fourth team raised his voice, “To kill so many people for culinary skills, even his own father and elder brother, is he even human!”
“Calm down a bit,” Xiangxiang advised, “These are all just conjectures, nothing has been determined yet.”
The captain of the fourth team snapped the docunt shut forcefully, turned to Shen Cang, and saluted, his eyes pleading, “Chief, please give a chance to redeem myself, I promise I won’t fall into the sa trap again.”
Xiangxiang beca urgency, “The Chief has already handed the case over to our third team!”
The captain of the fourth team, his voice hoarse, replied, “I just want a chance to redeem myself. I want to personally arrest the criminal who deceived !”
Xiangxiang put her hands on her hips, glaring furiously at the captain of the fourth team, “Anyway, the case is ours in the third team now. Your fourth team should reflect on yourselves properly and stay out of the case!”
Shen Cang extended a hand and pressed down into the air, quieting them both.
Shen Cang glanced indifferently at the captain of the fourth team and picked up the phone to dial Mo Haihao’s mobile number.
“Co up here.”
“Okay, I’ll be right there!”
The door was open, and Mo Haihao walked straight in, sensing the tension in the office. He touched his nose and muttered softly, “It’s quite lively with so many people here.”
“Take a look at this docunt first,” Shen Cang gestured for the captain of the fourth team to pass the docunt to Mo Haihao.
The captain of the fourth team, sowhat reluctantly with a downturned mouth, handed the docunt to Mo Haihao, “Here.”
Mo Haihao was surprised, having just completed a task together, the two had a good relationship, yet suddenly it was as if he owed him a few million, receiving no friendly expression.
Mo Haihao took the docunt, started to read through it, his expression growing more solemn.
Paper people, Blinding thod, wrongful case, sacrifice, Formation…
Each clue connected, seeming to all point toward one person.
Mo Haihao closed the docunt and asked, “The suspect is, the youngest son of the late restaurant owner?”
Shen Cang’s lips curled slightly, eyes turning toward the captain of the fourth team.
The captain of the fourth team t Shen Cang’s gaze, slowly lowered his head, and said hoarsely, “I’ll write a self-criticism.”
He had no face to stay here or to ask for another chance at redemption.
Just as he was hastily stepping out the door, Shen Cang spoke, “You can be involved too.”
The captain of the fourth team was startled, turned his head, and looked at Shen Cang, puzzled.
Shen Cang’s face was expressionless, “Join in as the deputy captain of the third team.”
Struck by lightning, the captain of the fourth team tasted bitterness in his mouth, his eyes dimd, his voice murmured bitterly, “Yes.”
Mo Haihao was confused, “What’s going on?”
Xiangxiang leaned to his ear and whispered.
Only then did Mo Haihao realize, so the wrongful case was the fourth team’s, and now the captain of the fourth team had been demoted, thrown under his command as deputy captain.
