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

Chapter 618 Face to Face

The door closed and the computer screen lit up with the community hospital's surveillance video.

Qiu Jie walked over and stood behind Zhong Liyun to watch with him.

This is the surveillance video in the corridor, facing the staircase. You can clearly see a young man with five people walking towards you, and they just happen to run into Wei Dongchen who was leaving the ward.

The two sides chatted for a while, Wei Dongchen left, and the six people entered the ward where Wan Rui was.

Zhong Liyun tapped the keyboard to rewind, and the picture froze on the young man in the lead.

"Who is he?" Qiu Jie's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he looked familiar.

Zhong Liyun crossed his hands, looked at the computer screen and said: "Chen Yi, the only son of the chairman of the Chen Group, a criminal policeman in Yangcheng, the youngest third-level police inspector in the country, left Yangcheng a month ago, and was seen off by tens of thousands of people. He is now the deputy inspector of the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Imperial City Police Department and the leader of the special case team.

I didn't expect that the special case team came to Dongli Shanhai and went to see Wan Rui right after getting off the plane. They must be here for me."

Qiu Jie thought of this person, and Wuxia's face showed a trace of solemnity: "In his early thirties, he went from an ordinary criminal policeman to a third-level police inspector. This person is quite extraordinary, and his ability to investigate cases is very strange."

Zhong Liyun said, "Ability is secondary, and the most important thing is quality. A few years ago, dozens of children were trapped on the Yangcheng River Bridge, and their lives were in danger at any time. He went forward alone in the rainstorm, killed the madman who hijacked the car, and rescued all the hostages. For the safety of the hostages, he fell into the river himself. Fortunately... he was saved."

Qiu Jie nodded: "I've seen the news. He's a hero."

Zhong Liyun smiled and said, “You only read this news, but you didn’t know that Chen Yi was later rescued by a ship, encountered overseas criminal forces, and bloodbathed an island by himself. None of the 30 pregnant women were injured, and he almost died.”

Qiu Jie was shocked: "Is this true?"

Zhong Liyun: "As for the news from Imperial City, I was quite concerned about Chen Yi at the time, so I asked about it, and it should be true.

It is precisely because of his outstanding achievements and the status of his wife Fang's family that he was able to be promoted so quickly."

He knows everything and his information is accurate.

Qiu Jie frowned: "This person is extremely difficult to deal with. Why would he suddenly target you?"

She admired Chen Yi, but her heart was with Zhong Liyun, so it would be useless even if a saint came.

Zhong Liyun was silent for a moment, then said, "Everything you have done will leave traces. I'm not surprised that you came to investigate me. Do you still need to ask why?"

Qiu Jie immediately took out his phone and said, "I'll book a flight for you. The world is so big, it doesn't matter where we go."

She was very decisive. As soon as she learned that the police might be targeting Zhong Liyun, she decided to go abroad immediately. She had no intention of playing any game at all.

The people should not fight against the officials. She has understood this deeply over the years. She cannot win the fight, not to mention that the person who came is Chen Yi from the Imperial City.

"I won't leave." Zhong Liyun glanced at Qiu Jie. "This country isn't as good as we imagined, but it's not that bad either. At least my dad... it's his own fault, isn't it?"

Qiu Jie paused and said coldly, "It was Wan Rui who led Uncle astray! In my opinion, he should be completely destroyed!"

Zhong Liyun smiled calmly: "He is indeed my father's bad friend, but he has been punished. The pain brought by caustic soda will accompany him for the rest of his life.

Also, if my dad had been determined and knew the harm of drugs, would he have gotten involved in drugs? You can’t blame others for the path you choose. "

Qiu Jie: "Let's not talk about this. Chen Yi has already arrived in Shanhai. He went to see Wan Rui right after getting off the plane. What does this mean? It means he will investigate thoroughly!

With his ability, I'm afraid he will even find out your past."

Zhong Liyun said calmly: "This is between me and him, just do your job well."

Qiu Jie was anxious: "Brother!"

Zhong Liyun smiled and said, "Chen Yi is a good policeman. The country needs people like him. It's a pity that we can't be friends. We can just protect ourselves and try not to cause him any trouble."

Qiu Jie was emotional: "I won't let him do anything to you!"

Zhong Liyun said slowly: "If you dare to take any measures against Chen Yi, no matter if they are soft or hard, I will definitely turn against you, and then you will no longer recognize me as your brother."

Qiu Jie was speechless for a long time. She knew that Zhong Liyun was afraid of getting herself involved. After a while, she said, "Brother, you...should..."

Zhong Liyun: “Occasionally.”

Qiu Jie's face changed and he looked a little panicked.

Things from the early years are difficult to trace, but recent events will leave a lot of traces. Zhong Liyun is smart, and Chen Yi is not a person who just sits there and does nothing.

"Don't worry about me." Zhong Liyun was very calm. "Chen Yi's sudden visit to Dongli must be due to an order from above. I remember the only leader who had contact with Dongli... was Director He. No, it should be called Department He now. He established the special case team and promoted Chen Yi."

"He Shirong?!" Qiu Jie became more and more panicked. If he was targeted by Di Cheng, wouldn't he be doomed?
Zhong Liyun leaned back in his chair and recalled, "I miss Director He. I think he is prejudiced against me... Is he prejudiced against me? Can you tell? Is there a prejudice? Do I look like someone who does bad things?"

Looking at Zhong Liyun who looked a little annoyed, Qiu Jie was amused by his resentful tone: "Police are all sensitive. He was parachuted into Shanhai, so of course he has some doubts about your rise, especially after knowing your background.

You are right, this is prejudice.”

Zhong Liyun was angry: "Prejudice... Never mind, it's not prejudice. I'm not a good person anyway."

Qiu Jie felt better and came behind Zhong Liyun to massage his shoulders: "If you were a bad person, there would be no good people in the world. If you were a bad person, I would have starved to death on the roadside. If you were a bad person... would those mountain children and orphans get a new life?"

Zhong Liyun enjoyed the comfort brought by his shoulder and complained: "Why are you still talking about parallelism? I was strongly against your withdrawal from the literary world back then."

Qiu Jie rolled his eyes.

Thinking that Chen Yi was in Shanhai, she suddenly felt melancholy again.

"If Chen Yi catches you, will you be his opponent?"

Zhong Liyun thought about this question seriously and answered: "I don't know. How about I turn myself in? I can still get a lenient treatment. What do you think?"

Qiu Jie knew he was not joking, so he said, "I don't think it's reliable. What if he's not as good as we thought?"

Zhong Liyun smiled and said, "You're hoping for the best, right? Those who were defeated by Chen Yi all thought so."

Qiu Jie: "If he is a good policeman, he should let you go."

Zhong Liyun: "This is not the standard of a good police officer. Do you think it's easy to be a criminal police officer? He has to catch the bad guys and the good guys too. Many times he has no choice..."

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door.

Qiu Jie looked over, his hands moving non-stop: "Come in."

The door opened, and Lan Shan came back, this time with a quicker pace: "Director Zhong, President Qiu, the policeman from the surveillance video is here, both of you."

"Ok?"

Zhong Liyun and Qiu Jie were stunned at the same time. Was it so fast?

"Looking for me?" Zhong Liyun asked.

Lan Shan looked strange: "No, he...he came to buy a doll, and it's a silicone real doll."

As a result, Qiu Jie's expression became strange and he subconsciously looked at Zhong Liyun.

What kind of way is this?
Are they using buying dolls as a cover to actually investigate the Yunjie Group?
If this were true, Zhong Liyun would have won the first round, because they already knew Chen Yi's identity, but Chen Yi didn't know that they already knew it, so he had the upper hand.

Zhong Liyunle spoke up, stood up and said, "Take me to see it."

Lan Shan: “Okay, Mr. Zhong.”

……

Chen Yi and Qin Fei were browsing the merchandise area, led by a beautiful staff member who served them with a smile. No one would choose to buy products at Yunjie headquarters, because Yunjie sales outlets are all over Dongli, and there is no need to do so unless it is a large purchase.

Zhong Liyun arrived quickly, asked the staff to leave, and explained things to Chen Yi in person.

There is no need to hide anything, he likes to play his cards openly - provided that Chen Yi is smart enough.

"Sir, welcome to Yunjie, I am the chairman Zhong Liyun." Zhong Liyun introduced himself.

The two sides face each other.

Chen Yi's gaze passed from Zhong Liyun's face to Qiu Jie behind him, and then returned.

All the characters you want to meet are here.

"It seems that Mr. Zhong already knows my identity." Chen Yi chuckled. This person is more difficult to deal with than he expected, otherwise he would not show up today.

Zhong Liyun: "Oh? What do you mean?"

Chen Yi: "Didn't Lan Shan or Wei Dongchen tell Director Zhong?"

Either Wei Dongchen recognized him, or the community hospital’s surveillance footage had appeared on Zhong Liyun’s computer.

The other party already knew that he had come to Dongli Mountains and Seas.

It is even known that the special case team has come to Donglishanhai.

At this moment, Zhong Liyun may have come to the conclusion: the special case team is targeting him.

Well, then let’s be clear.

Smart people play their cards openly, so everyone can feel more relaxed.

Zhong Liyun smiled and stretched out his hand to shake Chen Yi's: "Hello, Chen Xun."

Chen Yi: "Hello, Mr. Zhong."

The two became "friends" and talked about nothing else but products.

"You can rest assured about the quality. If there is any problem, I will compensate Chen Xun tenfold." Zhong Liyun introduced the company's dolls. "Chen Xun is giving it to a friend, right?"

Chen Yi nodded: "Yes, my friend insisted that I come to Yunjie to buy something, and I must fulfill his wish."

Zhong Liyun smiled and said, "Chen Xun's friend has good vision. Our Yunjie ranks among the top three in the adult products industry in terms of reputation and has a high cost-performance ratio. You will definitely not go wrong by choosing Yunjie."

Chen Yi: “Can you deliver the goods?”

Zhong Liyun: "Of course, where should I send it to?"

Chen Yi: "Let's leave it at the airport. I'll take it away when I leave Dongli."

Zhong Liyun: "No problem, it's all free, and I'll give Chen Xun a 30% discount on the product."

He could have given it away for free, but he didn't bring it up because the other party didn't need the money. The purpose of the discount was attitude rather than a discount.

Chen Yi: "Thank you very much, Mr. Zhong."

Zhong Liyun: "You're welcome."

After the business was over, Zhong Liyun invited Chen Yi to have a cup of hot tea. The company had a special tea room.

Chen Yi did not refuse and gladly accepted the invitation.

Four people sat down in the teahouse. General Manager Qiu Jie personally made tea and occasionally glanced at Chen Yi. The latter could sense a hint of hostility in Qiu Jie's eyes.

It seems that the two have a good relationship.

But Zhong Liyun had no hostility towards him, or it was hidden very deeply.

"This must be Mr. Qiu, right?" Chen Yi asked directly.

Qiu Jie was concentrating on making tea and ignored him. Zhong Liyun answered on his behalf: "Yes, this is Qiu Jie, the general manager of our Yunjie Group."

Chen Yi: "Yunjie Yunjie, does the word 'Jie' here come from Mr. Qiu's name?"

This incident seemed to have affected Qiu Jie's mood, and the movement of making tea was a little stiff. The reason was that the strength in his hands was a little too strong, which affected his flexibility.

Zhong Liyun smiled and nodded: "Yes, Yun is my name, and Jie is Mr. Qiu's name. We have known each other since childhood and have a very good relationship. Mr. Qiu and I founded the company together, so I chose a meaningful name."

Chen Yi praised: "Yunjie Group, it's a very nice name, the same goes for you two."

Zhong Liyun: "Chen Xun, thank you for your praise. I wonder what business Chen Xun has come to Dongli for this time?"

Both sides have their cards clear, but there must be some probing.

The special case team did not contact the police immediately after arriving in Dongli, and his friends at the Municipal Bureau did not call him to remind him, which means that the special case team must have arrived quietly and no one knew about it except He Shirong.

He was actually very confused: Why did He Shirong investigate him? During the two years that the other party was in office, there had never been any conflict between the two sides.

Thinking about it carefully, it can only be that He Shirong had doubts about himself when he was working in Shanhai, but there are no clues or evidence, and the specific source of the doubts is unknown.

"It's indeed a business trip, a trip at public expense." Chen Yi said with a smile, "We just closed a case a while ago, and the leader showed sympathy to his subordinates and paid for us to relax. Dongli is a great place, I've always wanted to come here."

Zhong Liyun: "So that's how it is. If you need anything, just let me know. I'm a native of Dongli and I'm very familiar with it."

"Of course." It's impolite not to reciprocate. Chen Yi also asked: "I wonder how Mr. Zhong and Mr. Qiu know each other?"

The two of them carried out the questioning in a jumpy manner tacitly. Chen Yi did not mention Wan Rui and Wei Dongchen from the community hospital, and Zhong Liyun did not mention Chen Yi's investigation into his background information.

At this time, the tea was ready. Qiu Jie poured the tea skillfully and made a gesture of invitation.

Chen Yi picked up the teacup, smelled its fragrance, tasted its flavor, and gave a positive evaluation.

In response to the compliment, Qiu Jie nodded slightly and sat next to Zhong Liyun.

Zhong Liyun answered Chen Yi's question: "To be honest with you, Chen Xun, I was an orphan since I was a child. My father was a drug addict and my mother ran away. Later, my father was shot dead by the anti-drug police for selling drugs to support his drug addiction, and I went to an orphanage.

To be honest, places like orphanages...are not suitable for me. People still have to rely on themselves to survive, so I left. I was less than ten years old at that time.

I met Qiu Jie when I was wandering around. She also had no parents. We were in the same boat and we sympathized with each other and kept each other company until now."

When talking about the past, Qiu Jie gently clenched his fists, and there was a strange light in his eyes when he looked at Zhong Liyun, which was a complex emotion of gratitude, admiration, and love.

Chen Yi understood: "It has not been easy for Director Zhong to come this far. I heard that Director Zhong is Dongli's anti-drug pioneer. So this is the reason."

Zhong Liyun: "I really hate drugs. They can destroy people's lives. I agree with the country's anti-drug efforts. I don't dare to be a pioneer in anti-drug work. I am just doing my best. I will continue to do so in the future."

After he finished speaking, Qiu Jie suddenly spoke up: "Chen Xun was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His starting point was an end point that countless people could hardly imagine. Naturally, he would not understand how difficult it was for the lower class people thirty years ago. Not to mention having enough food and clothing, even being alive was a luxury."

Zhong Liyun gave Qiu Jie a warning look, and the latter lowered his head and remained silent.

Chen Yi smiled: "Mr. Qiu is right, but it's not my fault that I was born into the Chen family. There is no absolute fairness in the world. I still admire Mr. Qiu and Mr. Zhong for their grassroots rise."

Zhong Liyun stopped the topic at the right time: "Chen Xun, thank you for the compliment. Come, have some tea."
