Chapter 1369. Dead End 4
“Then, that must be it,” Detective Zhang spoke in a hushed tone, “Doris probably did a series of investigations on Mu Lingtian before making a move. I think she wouldn’t have thought that the matter would be exposed at Gu Lingsha’s wedding or she couldn’t have expected the whole escape incident. We can only say that this outcome was what she predicted, but timing-wise, she couldn’t have predicted Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng to be in the car as well. I’m afraid she couldn’t have imagined that Qi Feng could persuade for Mu Lingtian to help them escape either.”
The more he listened, the darker Mu Yuchen’s eyes became. Xi Xiaye could even feel the cold aura that he emitted, so she quickly reached out to hold his hand tightly and say, “Mr. Mu…”
Mu Yuchen did not answer. He just let her hold his hand as he did not move either.
“Detective Zhang, are you saying that Doris already knew about Gu Qiwu and Lingtian’s relationship, so she’s been thinking of getting rid of Lingtian all this while?” Xi Xiaye asked.
“You can say that. In the documents, I’ve written clearly the entire case process, and the evidence that Lin Ling Er has provided. Glenn personally signed the bill for the factory owner. Besides that, Doris and Glenn ordered someone to plant an obstacle on the road earlier, so you can arrest the car repair factory owner now. As for Lin Ling Er, I’ve secretly brought her back. It’s extremelyhard to get this woman to speak. If it weren’t for the fact that I got hold of evidence against her, she wouldn’t have cooperated. Previously, she even alarmed Glenn’s people.”
When he thought about the risk he had taken this time, Detective Zhang still had lingering fears. If it were not for his wits, he would have probably been a puddle of mushy flesh underneath a car, but thankfully he ran quickly enough. After all, that was their turf.
“Thankfully, you controlled Doris in time, Chairman Mu. If you didn’t swiftly return to City Z and cut Doris’s escape routes, she’d probably be far from City Z and back in England now. I don’t even dare think of how I’d have ended up. Even though I’m in an illegal line of profession, I do appreciate my life very much and am terribly afraid to die. This incident has implicated quite a number of areas. Any moment of distraction and I could’ve fallen into their traps.”
“Detective Zhang, you’ve worked hard. I’ll pay you double the price, especially since I know aboutyour risky encounters in England. Thank you!” Mu Yuchen held the document tightly while he spoke humbly in a deep voice.
“There’s no need for that. Just transfer the remaining amount to my account. I’ll take what I should get since that’s our rule. This is also for Elder CEO Shen’s sake. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be willing to execute such an arduous task.”
