Urban Peerless Expert Chapter 4060 - 4079: Framed

"Is it him?"

Zhang Zhongjiu looked at the man ford by the gathering of light and shadow that appeared out of nowhere, his eyes lit up.

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, he should care about this, the image is especially clear, and in the mory, that man gave him a big box with so potions inside."

"Potion?"

Zhang Zhongjiu’s expression dawned: "We investigated all the accounts of his relatives and found no unusual monetary flows. We thought he was coerced into murder, turns out he was bribed with potions."

"The warrior’s potions, circulating in the market, their value is stable, it’s like giving money. But if you give money, it can’t be hidden in accounts, but with potions, no one can trace it."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "He buried that box in the middle of the bamboo forest behind his old ho, and left a letter for his family. But this letter hasn’t reached his family, it’s in the hands of soone he hired."

As he spoke, the radiance in midair changed to the appearance of the man he hired.

Zhang Zhongjiu raised his watch, scanned the man’s appearance, then began searching, soon nodding: "Found him. His plan is ticulous. After his death, we’ll definitely investigate his family. If his family knows about his affairs, it will inevitably be found out, the potions can’t be kept."

"He hid the potions well, left a letter for his family, presumably set a date, should wait for this event to pass, then the letter reaches his family. Then they find the potions and secretly sell them, equating to getting the money."

Lin Chen shrugged: "That’s not sothing I need to worry about. Did you find out who his contact is?"

Zhang Zhongjiu operated on the light curtain for a while, his face turning slightly cold: "Found it. It’s a mber of an underground force with a background, likely just a middleman. Anyway, I’ll just follow the trail."

"Thanks for this."

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "A small effort, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be heading back."

Zhang Zhongjiu nodded, paused: "Once I settle this, I’ll invite you to have dinner."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Sure, having dinner shouldn’t just be about eating, we should drink wine too."

Zhang Zhongjiu hesitated a bit, then nodded: "Alright!"

Lin Chen waved his hand, said with a laugh: "It’s settled then, I’m going, you stay busy."

Zhang Zhongjiu offered: "Shall I send you back to the hotel?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "No need, I’ll just wander back. You stay busy, now that this person has died, there might be so changes, you better hurry."

Zhang Zhongjiu thought it over and agreed: "Alright."

Lin Chen returned to the hotel and recounted the events.

Yao Xuanji couldn’t help but laugh: "Letting him have dinner and drink wine seems tougher than fighting..."

Nalan Wushuang said with a laugh: "Those too serious and solemn often have a tight string inside, after drinking wine, this string easily relaxes, deviating from their usual image. This is sothing such people are unwilling to accept, so they generally dislike activities like drinking that cause relaxation."

Shang Wenyao asked: "He’s rather unlucky, clearly unrelated but still forced to solve the case within a deadline. If not solved, he takes the fall..."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "In their line of work, handling cases within deadlines is common. Since sothing happened, soone has to handle it. If they randomly solve cases and disregard unsolved ones, no one cares, just getting by, law and order definitely won’t be good."

Nalan Wushuang asked: "Where are we going now?"

Lin Chen shrugged: "Touring, aren’t we here for travel? Let’s go out and explore."

"Alright!"

Four people headed to the scenic spots Zhang Zhongjiu had previously recomnded as worth visiting. The benefit of being warriors was that they can fly in the air without squeezing with ordinary people on the ground.

After a few days of fun, they were preparing to return to the East Second District, but suddenly received a strange phone call.

Lin Chen answered the call: "Hello?"

A sowhat familiar female voice sounded on the call: "Lin Chen?"

Lin Chen blinked, recalling the voice’s owner.

Zhang Zhongjiu’s aunt, Zhang Hanying.

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "It’s , Ms. Zhang. Why are you calling ? Is there news about the potion?"

Zhang Hanying said solemnly: "The potion production application has been submitted, probably will need so more ti. Calling you today, it’s to ask for your help."

Lin Chen replied readily: "What is it? You say."

Zhang Hanying’s voice was low: "Zhongjiu is in trouble."

Lin Chen paused, frowned: "What happened to him? Even though his strength has downgraded, he has wormhole shift to protect himself, that should be no problem?"

Zhang Hanying explained: "While investigating a case, looking for witnesses, one witness died in front of him and he was captured, accused of improper interrogation leading to the suspect’s death..."

Lin Chen wore a strange expression, the small team captain of the Inspection Bureau investigating cases, yet was the one captured instead?

"Who’s the witness you’re talking about, the killer lying in the hospital?"

"No!"

Zhang Hanying answered: "That killer was originally going to die, naturally no one would say anything. The one who died was the person he later pursued, the contact you told him about."

Lin Chen’s expression turned serious: "Even if that person died, why didn’t he contact ?"

Zhang Hanying responded angrily: "He must have been frad. After being captured, I went to see him once, he told that he was indeed pressing that person about who’s behind them at the ti. Yet that person began fighting with him and then deliberately crashed into his knife and committed suicide."

"Before he could handle it, another team from the Inspection Bureau rushed in and captured him..."

Lin Chen had a peculiar expression: "Frad? Would it be Zhang Family pulling tricks from behind again?"

Zhang Hanying definitively replied: "Not Zhang Family, Zhang Ziheng does have a competitive relationship with him, but wouldn’t resort to such direct thods. The exposure of the situation would force Zhang Family to face Zhongjiu’s retaliation, it’s not worthwhile."

Lin Chen asked curiously: "Not Zhang Family, then who, has Zhang Zhongjiu offended so many people?"

Zhang Hanying hesitated: "I think possibly He Family, or Wang Family."

Lin Chen asked: "These two families have a grudge against Zhang Zhongjiu?"

Zhang Hanying replied: "Zhongjiu likes a girl nad He Wei, a mber of He Family. But He Family disagrees with their relationship, repeatedly stopping and even obstructing them. He Family wants the Wang Family’s alliance, Wang Family Head’s second son likes He Wei..."

Love triangle?

Even though Zhang Zhongjiu is still in danger, Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile at the corners of his mouth.

Zhang Zhongjiu, no wonder you’re so hesitant, desperately wanting to achieve Level 9, turns out your beloved woman can’t be secured!

Ha ha, didn’t think you were such a person!
