Great Doctor Without Borders

Chapter 1539 Is there any connection?
Wang Jiancheng stared at Qin Dongwei without fear. He had seen many storms and experienced life and death, and his mental fortitude surpassed that of most young people.

Qin Dongwei asked, "How is your relationship with Huang Yun'er?"

Having already become wary, Wang Jiancheng certainly wouldn't follow his lead. He said slowly, "Very well, but you wouldn't believe me even if I told you."

Qin Dongwei asked, "Did any arguments happen today?"

Wang Jiancheng shook his head: "This is her first time visiting my home today. Your question seems to be questioning my manners."

Qin Dongwei observed the changes in Wang Jiancheng's expression. Wang Jiancheng remained very calm. Even the death of his fiancée, Huang Yun'er, did not cause him to have a mental breakdown, or at least he did not show the grief he should have shown.

How long have you known Huang Yun'er?

Wang Jiancheng sighed and said, "I know you suspect me. Yun'er is very good to me. I have no reason to kill her. Besides, this is in my own home. Do you think I would do something so stupid and cruel?"

Qin Dongwei said, "There are many types of crimes. One type is premeditated crime, and another type is crime committed impulsively..."

Wang Jiancheng interrupted him before he could finish speaking: "I reiterate, I have nothing to do with Yoon-ah's death!"

"Unrelated?" Qin Dongwei frowned. Even if Wang Jiancheng didn't kill her, he should still say something like that. How could it be unrelated? If Wang Jiancheng hadn't brought Huang Yun'er here, perhaps this tragedy wouldn't have happened. Was it an isolated incident or part of a plan? Qin Dongwei leaned towards the latter.

Qin Dongwei certainly cannot conclude that Wang Jiancheng is innocent based solely on his statement; at least for now, Wang Jiancheng is the prime suspect.

Wang Zhengdao failed to control the impact of this incident. Although he was powerful and influential, Huang Yun'er, who died in his home, was no ordinary girl; she was the granddaughter of Li Bingxing, the president of Lexing Group. That very evening, media outlets on the Korean Peninsula began extensively reporting on the matter, and domestic media outlets almost simultaneously jumped on the bandwagon.

The Li family exerted pressure through diplomatic channels, demanding that the police solve the case and apprehend the real culprit as soon as possible.

After realizing the truth, Wang Zhengdao knew he could no longer hide it from his father. Sure enough, his father called that very night.

When Wang Zhengdao saw his father's call, he didn't want to answer but dared not refuse. He pursed his lips tightly before answering the phone, trying to appear calm as he said, "Dad!"

Old Wang's voice was no different from usual: "Zhengdao, I heard something happened at home?"

"Oh, I've run into a little trouble, Dad. Don't worry, I can handle it."

"We must not let this affect Jianming."

When Wang Zhengdao heard his father say this, he felt a sudden pang of pain in his heart. This happened in his own family, and the person who died was his son's fiancée. The real troublemakers were the father and son, but his father's first thought was not to bring trouble to Wang Jianming. This was too much favoritism.

Wang Zhengdao didn't know what to say, so he just hummed in agreement.

Old Wang said, "There are only a few people in the family, so finding the real culprit shouldn't be difficult."

"The police are investigating."

Old Wang asked, "Was Jiancheng summoned for questioning?"

Wang Zhengdao said in a low voice, "Dad, I know Jiancheng. He would never do such a thing. Besides, we're all together tonight. I can vouch for him."

Old Master Wang knew his son had misunderstood him: "Zhengdao, how could I doubt my own grandson? Jiancheng has grown up by my side since he was a child. I know his character well. This is not a coincidence. Ever since Jiancheng had the car accident, one trouble after another has come to our Wang family. Think carefully, where exactly did the problem lie?"

Wang Zhengdao fell silent; his father had undoubtedly seen the crux of the problem.

Just then, someone knocked on the door. Wang Zhengdao told his father, hung up the phone, got up and opened the door. It was his nephew, Wang Jianming.

Wang Jianming also realized that the situation outside was not optimistic. After entering, he whispered, "Uncle, many media reporters are now watching this matter closely. If the impact continues to expand, it may be difficult to handle."

Wang Zhengdao sighed. If it were just domestic media, he could still manage to suppress the heat, but since this matter involved the Korean Peninsula, he couldn't control the overseas media.

He rubbed his temples, looking a bit of a headache, and said, "I've done everything I could. Now it's just a matter of when the police solve the case. Once they do, our family will be cleared of all charges."

Wang Jianming said, "I just heard from the police that our home security camera malfunctioned tonight. They are currently checking the wiring, and it is estimated that someone tampered with it beforehand."

Wang Zhengdao's face was grim. Including the nanny and driver, there were only eleven people in his family, and he didn't believe his own family would do such a thing. Today's events reminded him of Meng Jingyuan's situation not long ago; the villa he lent to his brother-in-law, Meng Jinglai, had caused quite a bit of trouble.

Thinking of this, Wang Zhengdao had a flash of inspiration. Last time, Qin Dongwei was also in charge of investigating the case. Both cases initially involved missing persons, but Meng Jingyuan is still missing, while Huang Yun'er has been confirmed dead.

Wang Zhengdao asked Wang Jianming to go find Qin Dongwei, as he wanted to have a good talk with him.

Not long after, Qin Dongwei appeared in front of Wang Zhengdao. In fact, even if Wang Zhengdao hadn't come looking for him, he had planned to come looking for Wang Zhengdao anyway.

Wang Zhengdao took out a cigarette and offered it to Qin Dongwei. Normally, he wouldn't have paid any attention to such a lowly policeman, much less give him such treatment.

Qin Dongwei said thank you and took a cigarette. He was a long-time smoker, and when he saw Wang Zhengdao also take out a cigarette, he tactfully lit it for Wang Zhengdao as a way of returning the favor.

Wang Zhengdao took a drag of his cigarette: "Captain Qin, this isn't the first time we've met." Qin Dongwei nodded and said: "The last time was because of Meng Jingyuan's case, also at your villa."

Wang Zhengdao shook his head: "I should go see a fortune teller. Why do I always run into such bad luck?"

Qin Dongwei said, "Now that things have come to this, burning incense and praying to Buddha won't help. Mr. Wang, last time it was your sister-in-law, and this time it's your son's fiancée. Do you think there might be some connection between them?"

"What do you mean? Are you saying it has something to do with me?"

Qin Dongwei said, "That's not what I meant. I just felt that the two cases were somewhat similar in some of their methods, which is why I had this suspicion."

Wang Zhengdao poked his cigarette ash: "Captain Qin, based on your experience, could it be that someone is trying to get revenge on me?"

Qin Dongwei countered, "Does President Wang have any enemies?"

"I've always been kind to people and rarely make enemies, but in business, you'll always encounter some competitors."

Qin Dongwei asked, "Is Mr. Wang's company collaborating with Lexing Group?"

Wang Zhengdao shook his head: "That's all in the past. The cooperation was terminated last year."

Qin Dongwei said, "Huang Yun'er is the granddaughter of Li Bingxing, the president of Lexing Group. Have she and your son known each other for a long time?"

Wang Zhengdao answered truthfully: "They didn't know each other before. My son was in a serious car accident in Dongzhou last year. Later, I arranged for him to go to Peninsula for rehabilitation treatment. Given our past cooperation, Lexing Group took the initiative to provide us with some assistance. It was at that time that my son met Huang Yun'er."

Qin Dongwei asked, "One more question: is your son receiving rehabilitation treatment at Mingde Hospital?"

Wang Zhengdao nodded: "That's right."

Qin Dongwei then asked, "As far as I know, you once suffered from a strange illness and lived a secluded life for more than three years. Later, you miraculously recovered. May I ask who cured you?"

Wang Zhengdao looked at Qin Dongwei with some curiosity. How did he know these secrets?
Qin Dongwei said, "President Wang, there's no need to be wary. I just want to know more about the case."

Wang Zhengdao took another puff of his cigarette: "Before I answer this question, could you answer one of my questions first?"

Qin Dongwei nodded in agreement.

"Who called the police?"

Qin Dongwei said, "It was an anonymous call. The police were told that Huang Yun'er was missing and that her life was in danger."

"You must have a recording, right? Can I listen to it?"

Qin Dongwei thought for a moment and then played the recording.

—Hello, is this 110? I need to report a crime; someone's life is in danger.

—Please explain in more detail. Who are you? Who exactly is in mortal danger?
—You don't need to know who I am. Hwang Yoon-ah's life is in danger. She's from the Korean Peninsula, the granddaughter of Lee Byung-sung, chairman of the Rakusung Group. If you don't take this seriously, it could cause a serious international incident. She's currently...

The man on the phone accurately gave Wang Zhengdao's address.

Wang Zhengdao listened carefully to the man's voice. It sounded familiar, and he quickly realized that the owner of the voice was likely someone he knew, as it sounded very much like Xu Chunliang.

When Qin Dongwei was about to stop playing, Wang Zhengdao gestured for him not to stop and to keep playing.

Do you know who wants to kill her?
—Wang Jiancheng! Wang Zhengdao's son, Wang Jiancheng…

Qin Dongwei pressed the pause button at this moment.

Wang Zhengdao looked at Qin Dongwei with some dissatisfaction. Qin Dongwei said apologetically, "Some things are not suitable for you to hear now, but you should understand why we came to investigate."

Wang Zhengdao snorted coldly: "That's utter nonsense. How could my son possibly lay a hand on his fiancée? They're very much in love."

Qin Dongwei said, "We just received some new materials. Your son and Huang Yun'er are not as loving as you say. They had a big fight at the airport, and we have retrieved the airport's surveillance footage."

“It’s common for young people to argue. Do you really think a video can prove anything?”

Wang Zhengdao keenly sensed that an invisible hand was trying to drag his son into a bottomless quagmire.

Qin Dongwei said, "Of course I wouldn't make any conclusions based on just a piece of surveillance footage. Mr. Wang, I know you definitely don't want this tragedy to happen. When it comes to solving cases, we should have the same idea. We both want to find the real culprit as soon as possible, right?"
