During this period, she was not only introduced to the resources and influence of Yannuo's company, "Jade Words Entertainment", but also learned that Yannuo grew his hair long and liked to wear long gowns because when he was a child, after watching TV dramas, he was attracted by the scholars who seemed weak and only knew how to recite poems and compose odes on the surface but were actually famous heroes. Coincidentally, he had a hero's dream at that time, and this fascination has lasted until now.
She seriously told him during this time that he would surely achieve his goal one day, which actually made this guy blush.
Su Yao looked at him in surprise. It turned out that this guy was really innocent.
Before the banquet ended, Pei Yan was called away by a phone call. Before leaving, he stuffed a business card into Su Yao's hand.
Watching him walk away, Su Yao let out a sigh. She pinched the business card and thought about throwing it away as soon as she went out.
But Yannuo seemed to see through her thoughts and said with a smile, "It's better not to throw it away, Yaoyao. You'll use it within a week at most."
Looking at him in confusion, Su Yao smiled slightly. "I didn't plan to throw it away."
Yannuo shrugged. "Who knows?"
After the banquet ended, Yannuo successfully persuaded Su Yao to develop her career in his company. He sent her to the car and watched them drive away. Then he lowered his head, took out his phone and sent a text message.
"I've got the information."
The other side quickly replied with an "Okay."
Yannuo put away his phone indifferently and went back to the teahouse to listen to the Chinese opera.
Meanwhile, in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city.
"Boss, Yu Hui is unreliable. Should I...?" A scar - faced man said while making a slitting - the - throat gesture with his hand.
The man called the boss was dressed in a black suit. His hair was combed into a messy and crooked slick - back style by a barber with poor skills.
Hearing this, he kicked the man on the thigh. "Why do you act like a one - episode villain? Do you know what kind of society this is? It's a society ruled by law!" After saying that, he waved his hand and walked out of the warehouse. "If he's unreliable, tell the brothers to pull back. Even if he can talk, it has nothing to do with us."
The scar - faced man quietly watched him get in the car and drive away. Then he trotted back into the warehouse and found the metal box hidden under the ruins. He wiped it lovingly with his sleeve, let out a couple of heh - heh laughs, and then spat. "After I finish this job, I'll get rich. Then you, Wu Tian, will still have to work under me!"
After that, he let out a series of heh - heh laughs as if he had already become a millionaire.
But just as he carried the box out of the warehouse for a few steps, he was surrounded by the sirens that echoed through the woods. People in uniforms with "Armed Police" written on their backs quickly got out of the cars. "Freeze! You're surrounded! Put down your weapons and surrender immediately!!"
The scar - faced man trembled as he put the box on the ground and raised his hands above his head. "Please spare me, Comrade Police! I surrender! I surrender!!"
The armed police with a pistol in his hand slowly approached him. After making sure he was not dangerous, he took out the silver - shining handcuffs in the moonlight and cuffed him. Another person picked up the box, and they took him into the car together.
Wu Tian hid behind a big tree. After making sure the people had left, he spat out the tasteless chewing gum in his mouth and walked away.
"Speak!" The police officer in charge of the interrogation slapped the table hard, making the scar - faced man shrink in his chair. Seeing that his intimidation had an effect, the police officer said fiercely, "Confession is lenient, resistance is strict! Tell me everything you know! Who is the seller of this batch of goods? Who is the buyer? How did you make the deal? And was it you who committed the murder in Liujia Village four days ago?!"
The scar - faced man was scared. He just stole some "things" to sell. He had nothing to do with the murder.
"Comrade Police, I'm innocent! I've never been to Liujia Village in my life, let alone kill someone! I've never even killed a pig. How could I dare to kill a person?"
The interrogator obviously didn't believe him. He slapped the materials and drugs on the table. "Don't give me that nonsense. The drugs scattered beside the corpse and the drugs in your box are clearly the same according to the test report. You're telling me it has nothing to do with you? Who would believe that?! Speak quickly!"
"Xiao Liu." Another police officer who played the good - cop role saw that the time was right and interrupted the bad - cop. He smiled at the scar - faced man and comforted him. "Your name is Hu Zong, right? Don't be nervous. Think carefully. What were you doing on the fourth of June? The people's police will never wrong an innocent person, but of course, we won't let any bad guy go."
The scar - faced man, no, Hu Zong, carefully recalled after hearing this. "On the fourth, I went to a bar at night, the one at the corner of Sun Bin Road. A friend said there was a way for us to make a fortune, so I went.
Then I got drunk. I don't know when I was woken up by the urge to pee. I vaguely saw my friend get up and go out. I couldn't resist my curiosity and quietly followed him. I just saw him exchange boxes with another man in black.
I originally wanted to go and see what they were doing, but I was so urgent that I had to go to the toilet. When I came back, my friend was already gone.
A few days later, I asked him what was going on. He said that man was a buyer. I asked him what he was selling. He gave me a box and told me to hide it in the warehouse on the outskirts of the city first and pick it up when someone came to buy it in a few days.
I opened it later. There were just some special - effect drugs in it. I thought he was just buying these drugs at a low price and selling them at a high price to make a profit. I didn't think much about it. I just left it there and left.
I really don't know how these drugs could be used to kill people. I really didn't kill anyone! I have nothing to do with it. Comrade Police, you have to believe me!"
The good - cop nodded, indicating that he understood. Then he took out a photo from the folder on hand and showed it to Hu Zong. "Do you know this person?"
Hu Zong shook his head. "I don't know."
"Okay." The two police officers stood up together. The good - cop turned back and said, "I've understood the situation. Other colleagues will come to take your statement later. Please continue to cooperate."
"Then Comrade Police, when can I go home?" Hu Zong asked tremblingly.
The good - cop smiled at him again. "It depends on how well you cooperate."
After saying that, he closed the door and walked out.
"Boss! How was my acting just now!" CC took off his hat and grinned, asking for credit.
Pei Yan picked up the photo in his hand. The young man in the photo was filled with melancholy. The sad aura seemed to be about to jump out of the photo. Such a person who seemed not to get close to others, why did he die?
He thought thoughtfully and whispered, "Moreover, what on earth is Hu Zong afraid of..."
"What afraid of? What are you talking about, boss?"
"Never mind. Go and ask the family or friends of the deceased. Find out what kind of person the deceased was before, what his little habits were, what he liked and disliked to eat, what he was allergic to and afraid of. I want to know everything. You go and ask in person."
"Why? Don't you already know that the deceased was not a good person? What could he...?" Sun Yang suddenly stopped, then slapped his hand. "I know! I'll go and ask right away!"
Bai Linglong stood with her arms folded in the corridor, waiting for them to come out. Hearing their conversation, she threw a questioning look at Pei Yan.
Pei Yan ignored it and said, "Please trouble Officer Bai to dissect the body that was brought back before. You'll get the result you want."
After saying that, he left as neatly as he came, leaving Officer Bai alone to reflect on herself: Didn't they say that sometimes silence is better than words when flirting with a man? Did I do something wrong? Why doesn't Pei Yan show any reaction?
Then Officer Bai thought of a more terrifying reason. Could it be that Pei Yan hasn't divorced yet?
Officer Bai covered her already blushing cheeks and ran back to the office. What on earth did I just do!
