Free Web NovelChapter 1086: Chapter 537: Playing Hard to Get? Unveiling the Past
But in Ms. Lin’s view, the case is still uncertain.
If she were to have a candlelight dinner with Huang Weiming, it would only increase his suspicion of committing a crime.
So she was somewhat unsure.
"Ms. Lin, since Mr. Huang is so eager, you should go with him. There’s really nothing to it."
Just at this moment.
Luo Fei suddenly spoke up.
His sudden words made Ms. Lin think she had misheard.
"Mr. Luo, what did you say?"
"Ms. Lin, you didn’t mishear. I think there’s nothing to fear if you have a clear conscience."
Seeing that Luo Fei was speaking seriously,
he shrugged his shoulders.
Ms. Lin hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
"Well, since Mr. Luo said so, I’ll listen to you."
Seeing her agree, Luo Fei then smiled openly.
"That’s right. Mr. Huang, you must cherish this. Good people like Ms. Lin are hard to find now."
Upon hearing Luo Fei’s words, Mr. Huang felt a surge of gratitude.
"Mr. Luo, thank you. If things work out with Ms. Lin, I’ll definitely invite you to the wedding banquet."
"Well then, since Mr. Luo said so, see you tonight."
After a while,
With Ms. Lin turning and leaving.
Li Yu asked with concern.
"Mr. Luo, since we now have more clues, should we proceed with the next step?"
The next step Li Yu referred to was naturally further investigating Zhao Ligang’s case.
Luo Fei neither confirmed nor denied it.
"You’re right, at least for now, there are no clues from Huang Weiming. So we have to take a different approach."
As Luo Fei spoke, he rubbed his temples.
It seemed like he was hesitant to speak, or a bit troubled.
Li Yu quickly comforted him.
"Mr. Luo, what’s wrong? Are you finding this case too tricky, which is why you look so worried?"
Seeing the other party looking somewhat bewildered at him,
his dark eyes blinked.
Luo Fei shook his head and said.
"Nothing of the sort."
"I just thought the behavior of that couple earlier was quite odd."
It turned out that.
Luo Fei thought.
The couple who came to the police station earlier behaved very deliberately.
They made it seem like they came specifically to denounce Huang Weiming and prove they cared for their daughter.
However, as they weren’t suspects,
and had an alibi,
Luo Fei didn’t ask much.
"Then Mr. Luo, how should we proceed with the investigation?"
Almost simultaneously, as Li Yu reminded him.
Luo Fei patiently explained.
"Li Yu, I think we can start with the other people in the photos."
Then, Luo Fei led Li Yu into the office next door.
As the two entered,
Su Jianfan stood up straight.
"Mr. Luo, I’ve already investigated the information you requested. You guessed right. Not only Zhao Ligang, but several other entrepreneurs at the party also met with unexpected incidents. Of course, besides Mr. Huang himself, there’s another person."
Su Jianfan’s analysis immediately put Li Yu on alert.
After all, this meant that.
This time Zhao Ligang was murdered.
It was clearly not an accident.
But someone did it intentionally.
Moreover, if the other people at the party are also in danger,
it likely indicates they are involved too.
"What exactly happened that would make someone go to such lengths? Even at the cost of silencing so many people?"
Seeing the serious expression on Li Yu’s face.
Su Jianfan seriously said.
"Mr. Luo, just now, I found some clues. I’m just not sure if they can serve as evidence for this case."
Su Jianfan hesitated, breaking out into a slight sweat as if he were guilty and hesitant to speak.
Luo Fei, however, kept a straight face.
"Su Jianfan, at this point, let’s not beat around the bush."
"Tell me honestly, what’s going on?"
Luo Fei was extremely curious at this point.
So Su Jianfan had to take a deep breath and patiently explain.
"Mr. Luo, I’m not entirely sure. But if I’m not mistaken, this case is also related to my leader."
"Because at the time, the reason they held that party was to celebrate Changli City’s city-wide economic revitalization activities."
But upon hearing Su Jianfan’s analysis.
Luo Fei was somewhat surprised.
"Oh? So this was actually a Changli City-level economic summit?"
"Exactly. At the meeting, my leader confirmed 1423 projects and pointed out the major issues currently facing Changli City and even the entire continent."
"Firstly, there’s the over-reliance on import and export trade. Then there’s the resilience and grain reserves, which can only be ensured through self-accumulation to avoid a series of problems later."
After listening to Su Jianfan’s explanation,
Luo Fei roughly understood.
This kind of large-scale financial event not only involves bidding but also entails distribution of interests. Most of the time, it’s not about scarcity but rather inequality.
And given that it’s about city construction, there could be entanglements in interests and reputational impact. So it’s possible someone might go to great lengths in such a situation to achieve their goals.
Realizing this,
Luo Fei immediately dialed Zhao Mengyao’s phone number.
And explained the purpose of his call.
