Chapter 228 Reinvestigation
For a period of time after the Jiang family's incident, Yu Chengfeng, Leng Xiyu, and Lu Fengcheng did not see Jiang Yanhui.
The three of them were all a little surprised to receive his call today.
Within an hour, the three of them had arrived at Jiang Yan's home.
The three cars drove into the garage one after the other.
Leng Xiyu was the first to get off the bus.
He leaned his tall, elegant figure against the car door, toying with the car keys in his hand.
Seeing the men getting out of the other two cars, he raised an eyebrow and said, "I thought you were just calling me, but I didn't expect you two to come too. Did you say what it's about?"
Yu Chengfeng shook his head. "No, but I can probably guess."
Recently, some people in City A have been feeling uneasy because of what happened to the Jiang family.
The police have deployed all their top officers.
Although things appear calm on the surface, undercurrents are surging beneath.
In addition, Lin Zhenbiao has been making quite a few moves lately, sending people everywhere to look for Guan Fengru.
The man who claimed to be retiring from the criminal world had practically brought up all his former subordinates.
The underworld was in complete chaos.
Lu Fengcheng gracefully adjusted his glasses and said expressionlessly, "Let's go inside and talk."
As the three entered the hall, a cleaning maid was sweeping the living room. Upon seeing them, she simply nodded and said, "Young masters, Young Master Yan said you should go to his study to find him."
study
Jiang Yan held a cigarette between her slender fingers, ash scattering everywhere.
He frowned and dusted off his clothes in disgust, then took a deep drag and leaned back in the large chair.
Those eyes, red and sore from the smoke, were slightly narrowed.
He stared blankly at the ceiling, seemingly lost in thought.
The study door was pushed open, and Yu Chengfeng was the first to walk in. Upon smelling the strong smell of smoke in the room, he immediately frowned and asked, "How many cigarettes have you smoked?"
Leng Xiyu leaned against him from behind and said, "Hey Yan Shao, are you out of your mind? At this rate, you're bound to get into trouble sooner or later, don't you know?"
Lu Fengcheng said nothing, but simply walked over and opened the window.
It reduced the smell of smoke in the air considerably.
"Yan Hui, smoke less."
Yu Chengfeng stepped forward, snatched the half-smoked cigarette from Jiang Yan's fingers, and stubbed it out in the ashtray. "Smoking too much of this stuff is bad for your health."
Jiang Yan remained seated motionless on the large wooden chair, and only after a long while did she slowly sit up straight.
Those eyes were bloodshot, which startled the other three people present.
Lu Fengcheng raised an eyebrow. He always liked to get straight to the point, so he didn't need to guess why Jiang Yanhui had called them over at this time. "Yanhui, if there's anything you need our help with, just say so. Don't torture yourself."
"I need your help with something."
Jiang Yan suppressed all the frustration and restlessness in her heart.
He spoke, his voice hoarse, like the clattering sound of something being ground down from old, worn-out gears.
Because he had smoked too much, his vocal cords felt numb when he spoke. "As you all already know, Guan Fengru has been found and is currently at the police station."
None of the three spoke; instead, they found seats on the sofa and sat down.
"When we found her that day, she said she didn't do it."
He hesitated for a moment, then recounted what had happened that day.
Of course, the part about him and Siyi is omitted.
After he finished speaking, Lu Fengcheng sneered, "You believe what she said?"
"I don't believe her."
Jiang Yan closed her eyes and said slowly, "She's not someone I can trust. I felt something was off about her a long time ago, but I had people investigate her background. They couldn't find anything, so I let my guard down until something happened. That's when I realized she definitely had a problem."
"If you don't believe it, then what are you waiting for?"
Yu Chengfeng tapped the armrest of the sofa with his index finger, intentionally or unintentionally. Because it was made of leather, it did not make any sound. His low male voice carried a hint of contempt, "Actually, if she were really afraid of death, of course she wouldn't admit that she did it herself."
Lu Fengcheng glanced at Jiang Yanhui, then adjusted his glasses, a slight smile playing on his lips, and said, "Actually, it's not about whether you believe Guan Fengru or not. What you care about is Ye Siyi, right? She is, after all, her mother. If you really kill her, you and Ye Siyi will be enemies forever."
Jiang Yan was not surprised that Lu Fengcheng said these words. In fact, the three people present were her childhood friends, and she didn't need to say anything; they all understood.
He himself knew it perfectly well.
Perhaps he had never trusted anyone in the Ye family before, including Siyi.
But right after she said those words.
He seemed to suddenly understand something...
He never knew what kind of feelings that woman had for him.
After all, it seemed like he was the one chasing and she was the one running from beginning to end.
Only when he was in trouble that she selflessly offered to help him, and he admitted that he was very moved at that moment.
But before he could process his gratitude, something even more serious happened.
He is also a human being, not a god, and of course he has emotions and desires.
Under those circumstances, he couldn't help but wonder if everything she had done before was for ulterior motives.
Ye Siyi said something very true: he's a coward.
He was terrified of losing things, he was terrified of being betrayed.
What he fears even more is being deceived by those closest to him.
So he did those things and said those things, but he never felt that he had done anything wrong.
Because there's always a voice inside me telling myself this.
She was the one who deceived him first; he was already being very lenient by not actually killing her.
But he never imagined that she was hiding something like that...
She wasn't Ye Xiongming and Guan Fengru's daughter after all!
The reason she said she wanted to elope with me that day was actually for that reason.
What shocked him even more was that the old man was also involved in the death of her biological mother...
This is all too complicated.
He was truly shocked when he heard those words from her mouth.
Even now, he is still not sure if all of that is true.
So he needs to calm down now, and he needs to verify everything!
Jiang Yan took a deep breath, her eyes sweeping over everyone's faces with a chilling gaze. "What I want to say is not just this. I now suspect that everything is not as simple as it seems on the surface. I feel there must be something I don't know."
Leng Xiyu raised an eyebrow and said, "If you have any doubts, then investigate. There's nothing in City A that can escape your notice, Young Master Yan."
"I checked."
Jiang Yan simply said, "I feel like someone is deliberately blocking all the information so I won't know anything. Guan Fengru said before that she didn't do that thing, and I sent people to investigate, but we couldn't find anything, including my mother's death. I always feel like something is wrong."
Yu Chengfeng grunted and said in a low voice, "Actually, I had some suspicions about your case before. The whole thing is not simple. Yan Hui, have you looked for Jiang Yansen? Don't you find it strange? Such a person just disappeared like that, and so did Yu Caiyi."
Jiang Yanhui pursed her lips, her gaze deep and intense.
He seems to have recently become completely engrossed in the shooting incident, and is also busy dealing with Ye Siyi.
So I've long since put that matter out of my mind.
He and Jiang Yansen didn't get along to begin with, so if Jiang Yansen didn't cause him trouble at this time, why would he even think about him?
But now that Yu Chengfeng brought it up, he realized that he had really overlooked something.
“I used to suspect that Blood Wolf and Jiang Yansen conspired to frame me, but later I found evidence to prove my innocence, so I didn’t think about it much anymore.”
"The so-called evidence was found by me."
A sweet face flashed through Lu Fengcheng's mind, and a meaningful smile unconsciously appeared on his lips. His tone remained normal, though. "I later asked the people at Jinzuo, and everyone who might have come into contact with us has been eliminated. Actually, I also had my suspicions. No matter how capable Jiang Yansen is, he can't just move around the people at Jinzuo as he pleases. Besides, he's not skilled enough to plant spies around me."
Leng Xiyu hated these roundabout things the most, and he was getting a headache from listening to them. He couldn't help but curse, "So what's going on? Just get to the point!"
Jiang Yan looked up at him and said, "The key point is to find out everything, but there are no people in City A who are capable of investigating these things. That's why I asked you to come here. I heard about a guy before. It's said that as long as you can pay him, his intelligence team can find out everything in the world. The key is that he's not from City A."
"Who?"
"Who?"
Leng Xiyu and Yu Chengfeng squinted at Jiang Yanhui, their faces full of curiosity.
Lu Fengcheng elegantly crossed his legs, raised his glasses, and slowly let out a soft, pursed lip: "You mean Nie Junwei from City C?"
"you know?"
“n\u0026s, the head of the world’s largest intelligence organization, of course I’ve heard of him.”
Lu Fengcheng raised an eyebrow slightly, but a hint of approval flashed in the depths of his unfathomable pupils. "Nie Junwei is also a very legendary figure, but he is very low-key, and there are not many people who know his identity. Some people only know the organization n\u0026s and have heard of the name Nie Junwei, but have never seen his true face."
