Detective: Open your eyes, I am handcuffed in the interrogation room.

Chapter 617 Zhong Liyun

Ward.

Wan Rui was sitting in the special case team standing. After Chen Yi put forward the hypothesis, the atmosphere became quiet for a while.

As time went by, Wan Rui's lips began to tremble, and his expression became more and more suspicious. Anger first flashed in his eyes, and then turned into fear. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that Chen Yi's hypothesis might be true.

How unlikely is it to make friends in a prison? How likely is it that your cellmates will be willing to help you? Everyone is busy with their own affairs, so how can they care about others?

He had only been in there for a few months when someone took the risk to get caustic soda from outside and gave it to him. Wasn't his charisma shining?

What kind of personal charm can a drug addict in his fifties have?
Seeing Wan Rui's reaction, Chen Yi sighed. Although there was no evidence for the time being, he could already suspect that Wan Rui's case was related to Zhong Liyun. The latter was not satisfied with sending Wan Rui to prison, but also wanted to make him live a life worse than death for the rest of his life.

In the Shanhai District, it was very easy for Zhong Liyun to deal with Wan Rui. It was basically equivalent to legal imprisonment, and he could do whatever he wanted.

Wan Rui's situation is just a matter of a chain.

Not to mention the prison supervision, even if there is no prison supervision, Wan Rui can't even leave the Shanhai District, and he can't even leave the small community at his feet. Zhong Liyun will get the news first.

After an unknown amount of time, Wan Rui slowly turned his head and fixed his eyes on the funnel on the bedside table, which was the tool he needed for eating every day.

In a sudden rage, he raised his hand and smashed the funnel to the ground, splattering food scraps all over the floor.

Chen Yi and others stepped back subconsciously to prevent the dirt from touching their shoes and trouser legs.

Anger came and went quickly. Wan Rui looked ashen and said self-deprecatingly, "It doesn't matter... I'm already like this. Who made me ruin his father back then? If he wants revenge, I admit it."

Chen Yi: "Why didn't you sell drugs with him?"

"Drug trafficking?" Wan Rui's voice became hoarse. "Drug use and drug trafficking are two different things. If you overdose and are caught, you will die. I don't have the courage to do that."

Chen Yi asked: "How much do you know about Zhong Liyun?"

Wan Rui: "Powerful and influential, Dongli's anti-drug hero."

Chen Yi: "Everyone knows these, but what about the others? How did he rise in his early years? Is there any negative news?"

Wan Rui shook his head: "How much can I know about such a high-ranking person? If he and I didn't have a grudge, how could we have crossed paths in this life?"

Chen Yi was ready to leave, as there was basically no possibility of getting new clues from Wan Rui.

"Young man." Wan Rui called out to Chen Yi, "You must be the police, right? And you are the police from Dongli. Can you... ask Zhong Liyun to let me go? I'm in such a state, half dead, he should be relieved, right?"

Chen Yi did not agree to this, nor did he admit that he was a policeman. He opened the door and walked out of the ward.

When the door closed, Wan Rui could be heard sighing deeply.

Zhong Liyun’s current behavior may not even be considered a public security violation. If the police are called, they can only receive verbal education and warnings. Given Zhong Liyun’s status in Shanhai, would the police cause trouble for him over such a small matter?
impossible.

To take a step back, even if the police handled the case, Yunjie Group is so large that there will be many people who will follow suit. Wan Rui can't expect to rest in peace before he dies.

Emperor of mountains and seas.

These three words are not called for nothing.

Walking out of the hospital, Chen Yi took out a cigarette and lit it. He was thinking about what Wei Dongchen said on the plane.

[Speaking of which, he is really cruel. I cannot do this kind of thing to get medical parole. ]

This sentence means that Wei Dongchen did not know that Wan Rui would leave the prison by swallowing caustic soda.

Two possibilities.

First, the suspicion was wrong. Wan Rui's swallowing of caustic soda was not arranged by Zhong Liyun.

Second, it was Zhong Liyun who arranged for Wan Rui to swallow caustic soda, but some people in Yunjie Group didn't know about it, at least Lan Shan and Wei Dongchen didn't know. So, Zhong Liyun might have two forces, one is white and the other is black, and they are hidden very deeply.

All we can see on the surface are positive comments, but there is no way of knowing what kind of person Zhong Liyun is in private.

However, just from Wan Rui's incident, it can be seen that this guy is by no means a kind-hearted person.

From an orphan to the king of mountains and seas, even a soft-hearted person cannot reach this point.

"Chen Yi, are you going to prison or not?" Teng Dabing said.

He meant finding the inmate who delivered caustic soda to Wan Rui and questioning him in person.

Chen Yi slowly exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "If this matter is related to Zhong Liyun, what do you think is the probability that that guy can give Zhong Liyun away?"

Teng Dabin thought for a moment and replied, "Infinitely close to zero."

Qin Fei: "Besides, Wan Rui took the initiative to drink the caustic soda. If we look into it, it's just that he smuggled contraband into the prison. It's very flexible to deal with it, and Zhong Liyun can't be touched."

Beside him, Su Ying hesitated to speak, but finally said: "To be able to easily send caustic soda to prison, this must have the help of acquaintances, right?"

Several people were silent and looked at Chen Yi. This matter was quite sensitive.

Chen Yi smiled and said, "That's normal. If the Emperor of Mountains and Seas only had connections in the business world, how could he still be called the Emperor of Mountains and Seas? Sending caustic soda in is just a matter of words, and no one was killed.

Let's go, let's take a walk around the welfare home. Remember, travel is the theme."

Several people got in the car and headed for the welfare home.

There are more than 130 welfare homes in the whole of Dongli, including homes for the elderly and children. The special case team is going to a children's welfare home located in the mountains and sea, which ranks among the top five in Dongli in terms of scale.

The children who can enter this welfare home are basically those who have become orphans in the middle of their lives, for example, their parents have been in a car accident, etc. If they are receiving social assistance or their origins are unknown, they will be sent to other welfare homes, and each one is different.

Chen Yi met with the director of the welfare home, still using the identity of the Yangcheng Criminal Investigation Corps.

The dean had no doubts. As long as the police identity was real, it didn't matter which city they came from. He just had to not offend them and just do his best to meet their demands.

The dean has been in office for eight years.

After inquiries, we learned that the welfare home has had five directors in the past 30 years. The old director who entered the welfare home in the early years was named Wang. He is still alive and is over 80 years old.

"Donations? Yunjie Group has never donated money." Facing Chen Yi's inquiry, the dean denied it.

Chen Yi wanted to know whether Zhong Liyun had any feelings for the welfare home. It seemed that she didn't, and if she did, she wouldn't have left.

He can selflessly support orphans and rescue homeless children, but is unwilling to donate to welfare homes. This probably gives us a clearer picture of his character.

He is smart and intelligent, but also ruthless and vindictive - you can also say that he is clear about gratitude and resentment, but he is kind to the lower class people. The contrast is obvious.

Kindness should come from one's own experience.

People who have been caught in the rain are very willing to hold an umbrella for others.

Zhong Liyun now is a person who holds an umbrella for others and does not put on a show, which is rare.

As long as there is no other purpose.

If there are other purposes for supporting orphans, it may be a devastating blow to these orphans, such as raising assassins, organ trading, etc.

Since Zhong Liyun has appeared in our field of vision, we need to think of the worst, make bold assumptions and verify them carefully, so as not to let the evil slip through our fingers.

Of course, he still hoped that Zhong Liyun was a very decent person, at least now, and he could ignore it in the past.

What the truth is depends on whether there are any changes in this trip to Dongli.

After obtaining Dean Wang's contact information and address, the special case team drove to the location. The other party lived in a community for senior cadres in Shanhai.

The director of the welfare home has a regular position. When Director Wang retired, he was a section chief. He is a native of Dongli and has also been awarded the title of "Advanced Civil Affairs Worker."

When I arrived, Dean Wang was holding a shower and tidying up the flowers and plants. He was enjoying his old age alone - his wife had passed away. "A criminal policeman from Dongzhou?"

"Come on, come on, come in and sit down. I'll pour you some tea."

Although Dean Wang is old, he is still in good spirits. He welcomes strangers to his home, who can add some ripples to his peaceful life.

Moreover, the people who came were our own people.

Chen Yi was polite for a while, then stated his purpose and started talking about Zhong Liyun.

"Zhong Liyun... Oh, I know." The old dean didn't even have time to recall and immediately identified the person. "The anti-drug pioneer of Dongli. She was on the news. I saw her in the news and I thought the name sounded familiar. It took me a long time to remember that she was a child from an orphanage."

Chen Yi: "Can you tell me about what happened back then?"

The old director said, "He ran away. He ran away not long after he came to the welfare home. We couldn't find him. It was very difficult to find someone on the street back then."

Thirty years ago, there was no Skynet system and even surveillance was a luxury, which was also the main reason for the low crime-solving rate.

Unlike now, there is almost no escape, the cost and difficulty of committing crimes are extremely high, and only those with smart brains can cause trouble for the police, but there are not so many smart people, and smart people generally don’t think about committing crimes.

Chen Yi asked: "Why are you running?"

The old director replied, "Bullied, right? All new kids get bullied, and they need some time to adapt. And I remember that Zhong Liyun's father died from drug trafficking, and the teachers at the welfare home didn't have a good impression of him either."

Everyone stays away from drugs. Even if someone is the son of a drug dealer, it is difficult to treat him fairly and people feel uncomfortable psychologically.

At this point, the old dean sighed and said, "It's also my fault. I should have paid more attention to him at the time. Fortunately, the child grew up safely and developed so successfully that he has become a celebrity in Dongli."

Chen Yi: "He never came back?"

The old dean shook his head: "No."

Chen Yi: "Do you know Qiu Jie? She's a woman."

"Qiu Jie?" The old dean thought about it seriously and shook his head: "I don't know, I have never heard of this name."

Without getting any useful information, Chen Yi said goodbye to the dean.

The current situation is that I am completely in the dark as to how to get to know Zhong Liyun in depth and it is difficult to choose a starting point.

Yunjie, is it the same evil force as Jiaocheng?

We went to Jiaocheng to solve the problem back then. Everyone knew there was a problem. But now we come to Dongli to discover the problem. It’s not even discovery of the problem. It happened for no reason and we don’t know how to start.

The mountains and seas are peaceful, the people live and work in peace and contentment, the public security is good and no one complains. Unless Yun Jie has a serious problem, Chen Yi doesn't even want to get involved and just leaves it to Dong Li to deal with it.

If Yunjie Group goes bankrupt, the impact on people's livelihood will be very huge.

"Let's buy the doll first and leave it at the airport." Chen Yi decided, "Let's go to Yunjie to buy the doll... Uh, there are a lot of people, right? It's not convenient to bring Sister Su with me.

Qin Fei, you come with me. The rest of you can disperse and do whatever you want. Contact us anytime. I've given you a car. Let's take a taxi."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Fei immediately waved for a taxi, and the two of them rushed to the headquarters of Yunjie Group.

Go to the headquarters to buy dolls, which are absolutely guaranteed to be authentic and of good quality - mainly to get to know the Yunjie Group.

……

After getting the surveillance video, Lanshan went straight to knock on the chairman's office. Before he entered, he heard footsteps in the distance.

The capable short-haired woman walked towards me with her slender legs. Her fair skin and delicate face attracted attention.

Many people think that General Manager Qiu Jie would be more charming and attractive if he had long hair.

All the employees of Yunjie Group can only admire Qiu Jie and dare not have any other thoughts, because they know that Qiu Jie and the chairman have a close relationship, like a couple, or like siblings of the opposite sex.

No one knows what the real situation is.

"Mr. Qiu." Lan Shan quickly turned around and greeted him.

Qiu Jie kept walking: "I'm looking for him too, come with me."

As she spoke, she pushed open the door of the chairman's office, and Lan Shan followed Qiu Jie in.

In front of the desk, Zhong Liyun raised his head slightly. He had a full forehead and thick eyebrows. His deep eyes sparkled with wisdom in his calmness. His nose was straight and his contours were three-dimensional. He could not be said to be handsome, but his temperament added a lot of points to him.

As a chairman who is less than 40 years old and started from scratch, Zhong Liyun's ability and means are evident.

"Is there something wrong?" Zhong Liyun glanced at the two of them and lowered his head.

Qiu Jie smiled and said, "It's okay. I just wanted to ask you what you want to eat tonight?"

Zhong Liyun: "Whatever."

Qiu Jie: "Go to my place?"

Zhong Liyun refused simply: "No."

Qiu Jie didn't care, he was used to it.

Lan Shan also didn't react much, he was used to it. People who were familiar with Qiu Jie knew that Qiu Jie had feelings for Zhong Liyun, but that kind of relationship was definitely not that of siblings.

Zhong Liyun's attitude was completely deaf and dumb. Lanshan absolutely did not believe that the chairman, who was so smart, would not know what Qiu Jie was thinking.

"What about you? What's the matter?" It was Qiu Jie who asked.

Lan Shan then spoke: "Director Zhong, Wei Dongchen said that some police officers went to see Wan Rui at noon. There were quite a lot of people, six of them, from other places. The surveillance camera is here, so we can see their faces clearly.

He judged it to be a police officer, but he was not completely sure whether it was true or not. "

As he spoke, he took a half step forward and placed the USB drive where Zhong Liyun could reach it.

Zhong Liyun didn't look at it right away, and said, "You just took a plane back to Dongli from Dicheng."

Lan Shan nodded: "Yes, just arrived at noon."

Zhong Liyun: "Did you talk about Wan Rui on the plane?"

"No..." Lan Shan was about to deny it when his memory surfaced, "Oh, yes, after a few words, Wei Dongchen wanted to teach Wan Rui a lesson again. I told him not to make things worse for himself. Wei Dongchen also said that Wan Rui was cruel enough. He couldn't do it in this way to get medical parole. I said..."

Lanshan restored the dialogue as much as possible.

Zhong Liyun looked calm: "Did you mention my name?"

Lan Shan said truthfully: "He didn't mention the name, he only mentioned Director Zhong."

Zhong Liyun then picked up the USB drive and plugged it into the computer.

During the process, Lan Shan couldn't help but ask, "Director Zhong, what did you ask just now?"

Zhong Liyun operated the mouse and opened the surveillance video while saying, "With the fact that you work at Yunjie, Mr. Zhong, and you are out on medical parole, the police with high authority can quickly find Wan Rui's name. It's not surprising that you went to see him. They should also be on the plane."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhong." Lan Shan apologized for his negligence, and then wondered, "Why do you want to see Wan Rui? Are these foreign police officers targeting Yunjie Group? Or are they targeting you, Mr. Zhong? What's their purpose?"

Zhong Liyun: "Go out first, you don't have to worry about this matter."

Lan Shan: “Okay, Mr. Zhong.”

Zhong Liyun had a very high prestige, and Lanshan never disobeyed his words. Even if he had any doubts, he would immediately stop talking about them. He would not think of digging into the matter or investigating it privately, and would just pretend that the incident had never happened.
