The Taming of the Ruffian Hero - Chapter 207
The first time the strange woman called Zhang Dong was to remind him to save Lin Wenxi. In the second call, the woman told him not to go to Yangzi County for the time being because Lin Wenxi had changed his name to Chen Yuanxi. The third time, she warned him not to take a particular task. Later on, an explosion took place when his two subordinates were doing the task. One was seriously injured, and the other was slightly hurt.
In the past few years, the few communications on the phone with that woman helped Zhang Dong avoid almost all the traps that Luo Yang specially made for him. Out of curiosity, he recorded the changed voice of that woman on the phone and asked someone to restore the real voice. Eventually, he discovered that the voice was exactly the same as the popular female singer’s voice that he had occasionally heard.
In a concert specially held in the MO Capital, Zhang Dong accidentally encountered Zhang An’an.
They did not say a word and only nodded slightly at each other. From that moment on, they always trusted each other.
The woman was not particularly outstanding, but she had the smart eyes of a phoenix. Hence, Chen Yuanxi found it was quite difficult to connect such a woman to the daughter of Boss Zhang (MO Capital’s boss). However, after repeatedly going over the past things, Chen Yuanxi still had to conclude that Zhan An’an was the daughter. No wonder that she needed to hide her identity. No wonder that her ideas always took him by surprise.
“Maybe she knows the news of Mo Qian. However, if we go to find her at this time, I am afraid that we will get her into trouble.” It seemed that Zhang Dong could not bear to do that.
“An’an can always find a way to protect herself,” Chen Yuanxi said.
After they made everything clear, Chen Yuanxi and Zhao Yuan immediately called Zhang An’an by the number that Zhang Dong provided to them. Without a stop, they were always on the way to her place.
When Zhao Yuan learned Zhang An’an’s background, he was totally startled, which made him temporarily forget to ask Chen Yuanxi for the evidence against Chen Tianjiao.
Chen Yuanxi and Zhao Yuan went through the underground parking lot and came directly to the residence of Zhang An’an in this small town.
Once again, they met after separating for a long time. However, they had never expected that there would be such a wide gap between their status when they saw each other again.
At this moment, Chen Yuanxi noticed that Zhang An’an was sick in bed and it was already a little difficult for her to get up.
“Is, is it because of the lingering effect of the disease in the past?” Chen Yuanxi asked.
Zhang An’an smiled slightly. “Every summer, there will always be a few days like this. It is a woman’s disease, so you don’t understand.”
Chen Yuanxi stopped asking and went straight to the point.
“Boss Zhang also escaped. The whole Mo family is all messed up,” Zhang An’an said.
“The headquarters of the Mo family is in the Imperial Capital Building. But now, there must be no one in there. Wenxi, you never let me down.” Zhang An’an smiled. “Pour some tea for yourself.”
Chen Yuanxi learned that Mo Qian had a stronghold in his hometown. As for the exact place that he would hide or any other situations, Zhang An’an had nothing to tell. Smiling, she shouted to a room. “Zhao Yuan, the bathroom is not there.”
“An’an, I asked Zhao Yuan to check your room. I must be honest with you about that,” Chen Yuanxi said.
“I knew it was you. You can do anything to achieve your goal, while Zhao Yuan cannot because he will always give considerations to human relationships. This is the biggest difference between you and Zhao Yuan. I suppose that you two must have argued about if you should research my room.” Zhang An’an simply turned to lie on her side and looked at Chen Yuanxi as if she were deep in thought. The fragrance of the heavy make-up on her almost choked Chen Yuanxi.
“You are still as smart as ever.” Chen Yuanxi praised.
“I understand why you are doing this to me. I also understand that after going through all those things over these years, you no longer believe in anyone. But I cannot understand the thing that you have done to Wang Zhengjuan.”
Chen Yuanxi shook his head. “But An’an, I have tried my best.”
“Alas…” Zhang An’an sighed slightly. She remembered the scene when she saw Shu Xiaoman last time. “That thing will be known sooner or later.” She thought.
“Your biggest enemy maybe the people around you,” Zhang An’an said with a smile.
Zhao Yuan finished checking. When he returned, he looked at Zhang An’an apologetically.
“Off you go. Take care, guys. Don’t come to me again,” Zhang An’an said, weakly.
Chen Yuanxi saw Zhao Yuan help Zhang An’an to make the bed, adjust the air conditioner to a suitable temperature, and evenly cut the western food in the refrigerator. He was busy for a while before finally going out.
“Some vital data must be locked in An’an’s computer by a Sky Lock, a kind of smart lock. Automatically, it will be installed. After that, it will also apply for the cloud server, upload the information, and produce double passwords all by itself. But once someone enters the wrong password three times, the self-explosive device will face two choices. It can choose to release all the stored items to the mailboxes that are in there in advance. The second choice is to destroy itself. Just now, I dared not try more…” Zhao Yuan said.
Chen Yuanxi believed that it was impossible that there were only several photos being locked up in that computer. And the double passwords, who held the other password?
“Zhang Dong has mentioned An’an and her father, but there was one person left,” Chen Yuanxi said.
“Her mother.” Zhao Yuan nodded. “Although I don’t know the point of investigating this matter, it may still be an approach.”
Within the next two days, Chen Yuanxi and Zhao Yuan contacted those people they knew and let them learn the facts about Zhang An’an’s mother because they daren’t show up openly. But in the end, they only knew that Zhang An’an’s father died at a young age. Later on, Zhang An’an’s mother remarried to Boss Zhang. However, no one could find out whom Zhang An’an’s natural father was.
However, they finally got the first good news in these two days—Chen Tianjiao was transferred to the procuratorate. His wife, Deng Yifei, was under close surveillance and was asked to assist in the investigation. Moreover, Luo Yang testified in the video and confirmed that Mo Qian had participated in the murder of Lin Ziwei. Zhang Dong sent the video to Chen Yuanxi, and it also played a certain role. Besides, the search for the suspects had been carried out in the Mo family on a small scale. This meant that with sufficient evidence, Lin Ziwei’s former subordinates had achieved some preliminary success when they were fighting the battle of wits and courage against people who were on Chen Tianjiao’s side.
But the video Luo Yang provided to testify against Chen Tianjiao could not be the final evidence, not to mention that the confession was extorted by torture. At the moment, according to the instructions provided by Luo Yang, some people had already gone to the United States to hunt the fugitive. In Inner Mongolia, some people cooperated with them to chase Mo Qian. The evidence provided by them could only prove that Mo Qian had ordered a man named He Fu to monitor Zhang Dong’s parents. The evidence they got from A City was not solid enough to prove that Mo Qian was guilty because no suspects who directly contacted with him showed up. When all evidence about Mo Qian added together, Mo Qian might only be sentenced to a few years’ imprisonments. All of the crime evidence was not enough for the police to send a B-level order of arrest to the whole province.
Perhaps, only when they further proved the irrefutable evidence about Mo Qian that Hong Xuan collected in all these years could they pin Mo Qian down for real!
When Zhao Yuan and Chen Yuanxi hid in a hotel in the small town and wracked their brains, a piece of online news made them gasp.
“Little Pop Princess Met the President of BC Company Late at Night”
A photo was attached there. In it, Zhao Yuan and Chen Yuanxi sat on the bedside of Zhang An’an, and Chen Yuanxi’s look was clearly visible in the photo.
“The dumb ass paparazzi!” Chen Yuanxi rebuked. When he was going to see the news, there was a new message in his Weibo.
“Lane 3, Anhe Road.”
