Chapter 547 Rose-Hidden (Part )

Case Seven Rose
Thirty-six Hidden (Part 1)
"All I know is that Zhang Yibai's death definitely caught everyone by surprise."

Gu Xing did not answer, but raised his eyes to look at Jiang Mo's eyes which could not hide his tangled sorrow. After a while, he turned his head to look at the pale moon half-hidden behind the eaves of the building, smiled and sighed, looking around and talking about something else.

“Regardless of whether Liang Ming was the instigator of the car accident on the day when the checkpoint was set up, as long as Liang Ming was the one who had contact with the big boss behind Fengxi and Bazhuang who never showed up, then it was only a matter of time before someone found a chance to take Liang’s life away.”

Jiang Mo frowned, and murmured something in his throat, but in the end he swallowed the doubts that were obviously impossible to answer, and did not speak for a long time.

The crackdown on Fengxiba Village had caused such a commotion - so much so that many people almost forgot that when Wen Chen left behind his police uniform and went undercover under a pseudonym, risking his reputation and half his life to get to the bottom of the big boss, he had actually been outside this old city from beginning to end, and had never definitely stepped into Sheng'an's seemingly tight chess game.

When Wen Chen was young and stubborn, he was thrust into a difficult situation where he could hardly move forward. He struggled blindly and rose from a small fry who was only qualified to open the car door and stand on the edge of a fight to a manager in Fengxi who everyone in the field had to bow half their heads to show some respect. Jiang Mo had speculated more than once that if it hadn't been for Zhang Yibai's protection, he would have most likely been cut into pieces.

Fengxiba Village was originally divided into two parts and the business world was in a mess. However, it has been quietly established and stabilised in the past few years. However, under the deep and quiet water, some people just cannot tolerate the equal distribution of profits, and arrogantly try to dominate the market. Unfortunately, once the greedy thoughts come into being, the market rules of "one spit and one nail" are overturned and messed up. Some people are thinking about expanding their power and swallowing more living water flow, some people are greedy for money and act quickly, and some people follow the obscure wind and hear some news. They quietly want to take advantage of the chaos to find out the trump card behind the scenes and then intervene, but they don't pay attention and reveal a little eye-catching flaw, which is exposed to the outside world intentionally or unintentionally.

Jiang Mo hung his head, pulled off the hemostatic tape on the back of his hand, and slowly twisted it into a ball.

...Perhaps, that seemingly concluded Skynet operation was just a cover-up for the temporary withdrawal of the manufacturing and trafficking group behind the scenes from Sheng'an Market and the beginning of a deeper undercover operation.

It was a pity to abandon the mud wall that had been softened by wind and rain, but it was so loose that no one knew when some wind would crush people under the wall. Two or three unlucky guys who didn't know their place and exposed their wealth had to be abandoned on the spot. It would be better to take this opportunity to give support to Zhang Yibai, who was ambiguous in his stance, and reach his hand into the deeper part of the pool to fish in troubled waters, and then use the knife of justice in the hands of the police to clear up all the hidden dangers that had long been in Sheng'an City.

Judging from this, Liang Ming, who seemed to be following the arrangements but actually intended to kill with a borrowed knife to get rid of Liang Ji, the eyesore, was probably on the blacklist of the boss behind the scenes who was planning to eliminate dissidents long before the cleanup operation.

Jiang Mo guessed that Wen Chen should know clearly, or at least had suspicions, that the reason why his undercover identity had been hidden until now was most likely because Zhang Yibai was the chess piece that was closely linked to the mastermind behind this in-depth layout.

However, no matter how much she said in her heart, all these inferences were just Jiang Mo's conjectures. She had no way of knowing the exact truth. Was Zhang Yibai really Sheng An's umbrella, or was he just pretending to be "burning his boats and joining the light" in order to lie dormant deeper?

...The only thing that is certain is that Zhang Yibai facilitated the people behind Fengxi Bazhuang to withdraw from the chaos in Sheng'an early before the net was closed - otherwise, if the news of Qijia Village in Bazhuang leaked out, it would be difficult for Wen Chen to escape unscathed at such a time, and to jump out of such a life-and-death circle with the hat of an undercover agent.

However, no matter which camp Zhang Yibai stood in, during the period when the people behind Fengxibazhuang were hiding, a blind man suddenly jumped out from behind the cover of Liang Mingshu, and came up with the idea of ​​taking a policeman's life as a token of his allegiance and making a profit, and put it on Zhang Yibai's head.

The direct upstream suddenly fell, and the network of relationships that could have been rebuilt was completely cut off without any warning. Even Shengcheng Intermediate Speed, a hidden line that could have been slowly deepened, was exposed all at once, and it was difficult to pretend to wait and see. The operation that had been laid for several years to make progress was so absurdly suspended halfway. It was unlikely that Wen Chen would just watch his past efforts stagnate - with his master... and even his life that could not be cleared of slander. At this point, Liang Ming, the domineering second-generation ancestor who had detained a lot of goods without authorization, became the only stepping stone worthy of the real boss behind Sheng'an to pay a little attention to. At the very least, it could pave the way for him to get back into the quagmire from which there was almost no return.

"After a fight among a group of people, a group of people are left with no one to take care of them. This is enough to serve as a warning to others."

Jiang Mo smiled bitterly, "Since Zhang Yibai's car accident had nothing to do with Liang Ming, Wen Chen was quite calculating and threw the unjust debt of revenge for his master into the hands of our criminal investigation team."

Gu Xing didn't say whether he agreed or not, but he sighed inwardly, "On the day when the operation was planned...what did Wen Chen say to you?"

"During the meal?" Jiang Mo curled his lips with mixed feelings, and said in a trembling voice: "He said... let me take care of Wen Xi."

Gu Xing snorted and raised his hand to press down on Jiang Mo's head. "The surveillance command center near Liushui River helped to check it. In the early morning of the day before the police set up surveillance, they captured a blurry image of Wen Chen driving a fake license plate car to the scrap tire factory. The accident investigation of Binshui Mansion also needs to sort out all suspicious issues step by step. Now that they ask you, what are you going to say?"

"Tell the truth." Jiang Mo glanced at her master, "Just like saying that Wei Qisheng was absent from his post."

Gu Xing raised his eyebrows, stood up and patted the dust and dirt from the fire on his clothes, "Put his hat on tightly. As for the rest, it's all about time and fate. It depends on his luck."

"Master."

Jiang Mo stood up and took a few steps behind Gu Xing who was waving his hand and preparing to leave, "Will Wen Chen... be able to come back?"

Gu Xing didn't say anything. He just looked back in the messy wind, paused for a while, then sighed and spoke, looking around and talking about something else.

"In addition to Wen Chen's early visit to the scrap tire factory...when investigating the road surveillance, we also found a suspicious vehicle with a fake license plate. It was a scrapped car that was once registered at the scrap yard and had been dismantled and delivered to Baixing Auto Repair Shop."

Jiang Mo was startled, then immediately reacted: "Xu Jianghua?"

Gu Xing finally nodded, "The team and the bureau probably don't have time to dwell on this clue these two days. I'll be discharged from the hospital tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Before Xu Jianghua is released on bail, I'll go to his junkyard and investigate again."

Due to work and health reasons, I will be working on another day~
