the other side.

Within the supervisory team.

The frontline employees cried out in anguish, "What happened at the Gao family? How could someone suddenly die?"

"Well, that's great. You wanted to investigate Zhao Lidong, but you should investigate Meng Dehai first..."

"A project at the district or city level could cause a death; we're in for a lot of trouble now."

"When do you think Director Zhong started getting angry?"

"Hey, if you ask me, Director Zhong isn't married and she's always working. Who knows, we might hear some news about her soon!"

And at the same time.

In Xu Zhong's office.

Zhong Xiaoai's face flushed slightly with anger, her usual calm and composed demeanor completely gone!

Xu Zhong, standing to the side, also looked displeased: "I never expected that someone would die at the Gao family's construction site out of nowhere."

"asshole!"

Zhong Xiaoai couldn't help but grit her teeth and say, "What exactly happened? It was because I trusted Gao Qilin that I asked him to help divert Zhao Lidong's attention."

"Now such a huge problem has arisen, the whole city is in chaos, and the construction site in Mang Village will definitely need to be replaced!"

"They even caused a death; isn't that just adding trouble for our investigation team?"

"Not only did it not help, it also caused such a huge mess!"

Xu Zhong, who was standing to the side, did not speak, but silently covered his face with his hands and sighed deeply.

And also at this time.

Xu Zhong's phone rang, and as soon as he answered, Meng Dehai's voice came through.

"Instructor Xu, I have something to report to you."

"There's been some progress on the Gao family's side. It's very likely a murder. Surveillance footage showed a second person at the scene of the death, namely Li Youtian, the village chief of Mang Village."

As Meng Dehai finished speaking, Xu Zhong's face lit up with joy: "You mean it's not a construction site safety issue, but a murder?"

Meng Dehai hummed in agreement, then said in a low voice into the phone, "Instructor Xu, Cheng Du was parachuted in after all, and the bureau doesn't trust him. He told me first. I know this is a violation of regulations, and I'll accept the punishment after this is over."

"But at the latest, by tomorrow morning, Chengdu will definitely know the news... Father."

Xu Zhong nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I understand. I'll report to Director Zhong first, and you need to be careful not to let the news leak out..."

the other side.

Within the Municipal Bureau.

At this moment, An Xin and Li Xiang are sitting in the interrogation room, looking at Li Youtian across from them.

Li Xiang sneered: "Fine, you two father and son are really destined to be with our Municipal Bureau. You miss your son and want to go and keep him company?"

A look of panic and ignorance immediately appeared on Li Youtian's face.

"Xiang, what do you mean by this? Look, I'm your uncle who watched you grow up. Why did you arrest me? You should at least tell me beforehand!"

An Xin, who was standing to the side, tapped the table: "This is not a place where you can try to claim kinship! Tell me honestly, what did you do at the construction site to find Li Shun at 3:27 this afternoon?"

Li Youtian didn't speak immediately, but rolled his eyes and then quickly said, "I'm going to find Li Shun from our village."

“Isn’t Li Shun’s son crazy? Xiangxiang, you should know that too. Li Shun is about to have a fit at home. I need to go and tell Li Shun right away…”

"Be honest!"

Li Xiang said sternly, "I'll say it again, this is an interrogation room, not a place for you to try and build connections."

"If you continue like this, then we'll have someone else interrogate you!"

As Li Xiang finished speaking.

Li Youtian's face twitched: "No, no, Officer Li, is that alright now?"

"I really don't know what happened. How could I have had the audacity to kill someone? I really don't know what happened!"

At this moment, Li Youtian appeared calm on the surface.

But only Li Youtian himself knew.

Just before entering the police station, he was still trembling with fear of killing someone with his own hands!

But now.

The desire to destroy Gao's Real Estate has completely taken over!

Having come this far, Li Youtian absolutely could not possibly give up now...

……

Not long after.

Li Xiang and An Xin walked out of the interrogation room.

An Xin looked somewhat helpless: "We have no evidence from the scene. The scene was too messy, and we couldn't extract any strong evidence at all."

"What should we do now? Li Youtian must be released in 24 hours."

Li Xiang frowned, then sighed, "Let's take a look first."

"Li Youtian has a strong mentality. If he really insists on denying it, there's nothing we can do but try to find out if there are any eyewitnesses..."

And apart from that.

Within the journalism community, this column has generated considerable discussion...

……

"What's with the people criticizing Gao Qilin? The Gao family has done so much for municipal construction in Jinghai City during this time, how can there be people criticizing Gao Qilin?"

"Unscrupulous reporter! Unscrupulous reporter!"

"Wait, why is the author Meng Yu? If I remember correctly, isn't Meng Yu Meng Dehai's daughter and Gao Qilin's girlfriend?"

"Could it be that their relationship has broken down...?"

"A woman's heart is the most poisonous!"

……

Besides.

now.

In the Meng family.

Meng Yu carefully opened the door with the key, trying her best not to make the slightest unnecessary sound.

It's best... not to disturb even Dad!

After opening the door, the living room was indeed empty.

Meng Yu breathed a sigh of relief, pushed open the bedroom door, and turned on the light.
