Chapter 1112: Chapter 1083: Evidence of a Miscalculation

Director Meisai made Wang Zhanting wait in the reception room for a full two hours before arriving leisurely. You could see it as deliberate or simply that he was genuinely busy, but Wang Zhanting sat calmly in his seat, with gray-streaked temples neatly in place. There was a cup of untouched coffee on the table, the black liquid emanating coldness, and his drooping eyelids seemed to be dozing, his head nodding gently.

It seemed he was asleep, but at the sound of the door opening, Wang Zhanting swiftly raised his head to locate the door, as Director Meisai rushed in. A half-hearted apology didn’t matter to Wang Zhanting; compared to Shao Weihua, Meisai seemed more reliable.

"Mr. Wang, I presume? I’m Meisai." Settling into the seat opposite Wang Zhanting, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a blue and muted yellow plaid handkerchief. "Oh, God, this weather makes you want to bury yourself in a fridge."

Wang Zhanting merely tugged at the corners of his mouth at Meisai’s soliloquy, not engaging further. Clearly, he wasn’t interested in this topic. "My secretary tells me you have different thoughts and opinions on Wang Zhantian’s death. Can you tell me what they are?"

"Although the police have closed the case, I personally feel my brother’s death isn’t that simple! I hope the police can re-evaluate this case."

"Mr. Wang, do you have any basis for saying this or are these just random speculations?" Meisai asked calmly, looking at Wang Zhanting, feeling much cooler under the strong air conditioning. "If Mr. Wang insists on his opinion, I presume you have evidence strong enough to overturn our police’s conclusion. If your evidence is valid, we’ll certainly provide you with a satisfactory answer."

"This is the video footage from that time!" Wang Zhanting pushed a small USB towards Meisai. "I can sit here and wait; it won’t take you long!"

Meisai picked up the USB, which was barely the size of a finger, seemingly unmoved yet contemplating something. Suddenly, his eyes gleamed, staring directly at Wang Zhanting. "This is footage from that time? You were present then? How else would you have this footage?"

"Having the video doesn’t mean I was there. What your police couldn’t do, doesn’t mean I can’t!"

Meisai said nothing further, took the USB back to his office, locked the door, took a deep breath, and plugged the USB into his computer. The auto-playing software transported him into a rainy night!

The video lasted only a few minutes, the length of a song, but it made the young director sit in his chair for a long time. Wang Zhanting indeed had information that wasn’t available to him, and the brief footage was definitely not captured from public surveillance cameras, as it was clear enough to show the assassin’s face, despite only a profile, clearly indicating there were others present at the scene.

After removing the USB, Meisai returned to the reception room.

"Have you figured out how to face me, Director Meisai?" Wang Zhanting finally showed expression. "The murderer reported by the police should not look as mature and sophisticated as the one in the video, should they?"

"Where did you get this?"

"I don’t care if your police want to re-investigate, but I have one request: the murderer must be dealt with by me personally!" Zhan Ting’s fingers tapped the tabletop.

"Anything else?" Wang Zhanting shook his head. "Mr. Wang, I’m afraid I can’t agree to your request, as a law enforcement officer, I must be responsible for the truth of each case. Given that you have provided us with so much real information, I have to investigate further."

Wang Zhanting didn’t expect Meisai to say this; beneath his pale expression, he finally showed surprise and anger. "I’ve already said there’s no need to continue; my request is simple, to handle this murderer personally. Why do you continue to investigate, are you not an accomplice to this person?"

"Yes! But I also want to clear my own stain, so I must continue the investigation!"

"You can’t do this, are you insane!" Meisai’s insistence made Wang Zhanting restless, the thorough preparations made beforehand crumbled at this moment.

"I’ll have my secretary handle Wang Zhantian’s body claim for you. Thank you for your cooperation."

"Wait a moment!" Wang Zhanting called after Meisai. "Are you investigating the Lucchesi shootout case? If I tell you who did it, could we stop pursuing this matter?"

"Thank you for your offer, but I have already identified who it is!" Meisai suddenly leaned over, came closer to Wang Zhanting. "Trying to remove Shao Weihua, your method is very naive. This kind of thing can be obtained from anywhere, its synthetic effect is not good; however, I can quietly make this into a necessary weapon if you can convince Robert to be more restrained recently, I might consider your suggestion."

"You..."

Meisai curled his lips into a smile, looking down at this person stunned into silence by shock. "Secretary, take Mr. Wang for the paperwork!"

"Director Meisai! I think you will regret today’s actions." Wang Zhanting threw out a harsh remark before following the secretary out of the reception room.

Meisai held his forehead, feeling unsettled as he returned to his office, suddenly discovering the USB plugged into the computer was missing. In panic, he called out his secretary.

"Director, what’s wrong?"

"Who came to my office just now?"

"Tang!"

Meisai found Tang in the print department, drinking milk, and upon seeing the director, everyone started busily tending to their own tasks; Tang, like a child who had done something wrong, obediently walked out of the print department upon seeing Meisai.

"Hand over the USB to me!" Meisai’s stern voice came from above.

"This video is fake!" Tang argued while handing the USB to Meisai. "I just wanted to take it back and unlock the video; there are several inserts, and the editing is very rough."

"If it’s all fake, why bother unlocking it? Isn’t that a waste of time?" Meisai rubbed Tang’s head!

"Because there’s a shadow of Xiao Lin in it!" The sentence made Meisai’s hand pause.

"Is there? I didn’t see this person!"

"In the editing process, it wasn’t compressed well, so there’s a ghostly shadow. It’s difficult to spot if you don’t look closely! But if you examine it thoroughly, you can still see a shadow."

"Why suddenly pay so much attention to this person?" Tang shook his head. "I’m coming with you, I also want to know what is going on here!" (To be continued.
