Chapter 1167: Chapter 1166: Seeing Through
Yu Fengji, although he didn’t want to see Jiang Yang go, guessed that once the director and other leaders found out that the little genius had left, they would definitely be hopping mad. But he didn’t care at all; he had more interesting things on his mind.
“I smell a conspiracy,” Yu Fengji stroked his chin, saying with keen interest, “There’s definitely a big case here, and not just one.”
Team Leader Ying poured cold water on it, “So what? Didn’t you see the big bastard taking the little bastard away? What does that mean? They’re planning to handle it privately.” He knew Huo Beijiang all too well.
This bastard liked to take matters into his own hands whenever he encountered any problem. And on his shoulders, he also bore the vendettas of Huo Dongfeng and Yuan Xueshan!
He dared not delve into the things this guy did in secret, afraid that he wouldn’t be able to control a sudden outburst of his sense of justice and end up shooting some bastard dead.
The phone on the office desk suddenly rang, and Ying Jiuming picked it up without a second thought.
“Hello! This is Imperial City Police Department Ninth Group, who’s speaking?”
“Hello Team Leader Ying, this is Wei Qin. Is Jiang Yang there? Could I speak to him?” Wei Qin’s graceful and pleasant voice came through the phone.
Once Ying Jiuming recognized it was him, the polite expression on his face immediately vanished, and he said bluntly, “I’m sorry, Jiang Yang isn’t here.”
Wei Qin paused, his acute senses detecting something different. His voice became much lower, filled with suppressed joy and excitement.
“May I know where he is? I can arrange for someone to pick him up.”
“Heh!” Ying Jiuming let out a cold laugh, “No comment.”
Yu Fengji couldn’t stand listening anymore, “Is that Wei Qin? Are you crazy?” Given Wei Qin’s status and identity in Imperial City, they were in no position to offend him. That was not to say Wei Qin had a bad temper or was vindictive.
It was his achievements that commanded genuine respect and admiration from countless people.
“Don’t talk to Wei Qin like that,” Yu Fengji warned in a low voice.
“Mind your own business,” Ying Jiuming snapped back coldly, then continued into the phone, “Stop looking for Jiang Yang. The moment you gave up on him to find your own brother, you lost him.” Without waiting to hear more, he hung up directly.

Jiang Yang followed Huo Beijiang out of the police station, heading towards the compound. Lu Jin drove, with Huo Beijiang and Jiang Yang sitting together in the back seat. At first, neither of them spoke. Huo Beijiang looked out the car window, furrowing his brows, clearly suppressing the anger in his heart.
He thought about how last year, Nan Fei had nearly died trying to save Jiang Yang and Jiang Zhuanzhuan.
Even though so much time had passed, just the thought of losing Nan Fei made his heart quell in anger, and the pain was excruciating.
“Is it because you fell into the river, so Jiang Zhuanzhuan wanted to kill you to silence you?” Huo Beijiang suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse and deep, causing goosebumps for those who heard it.
His thoughts moved even faster, now fully understanding the situation. When he was outside the police station, he had overheard everything Jiang Yang said and had instantly realized where the problem lay.
Thinking that Jiang Yang had been deliberately pushed into the river by Jiang Zhuanzhuan, and that her behavior afterwards had been flawlessly perfect, even someone as experienced as him had been deceived. A cold smile curled up at the corner of Huo Beijiang’s mouth.
