Chapter 461: Chapter 461 The Zheng Family in Trouble (Fourth Update)
Lin Fei furrowed his brow and said to Major Zhou, “Let him in.”
Although Director Qin was dismissive of him and Leng Ying at the police station, Lin Fei had promised Chen Biao to investigate the missing persons case.
Therefore, he still allowed Director Qin to come in.
Major Zhou agreed and went out.
Soon, Director Qin walked in, looking embarrassed, and said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, at the police station, I failed to recognize someone as significant as you…”
Before Director Qin could finish, Lin Fei interrupted him, saying, “Director Qin, no need for apologies. Since you’ve come to us, it seems you’re willing to let us help you investigate the missing persons case. Let’s talk about the case!”
Director Qin didn’t expect Lin Fei to be so magnanimous, not holding any grudge against him.
So, he nodded and sat down on the sofa.
He opened the briefcase he carried with him and took out a stack of documents, along with various photos.
“The Shencheng missing women case has underground current for half a year. It’s not that there are no leads, but the adversary’s power is immense.” Director Qin laid several photos on the table.
“This is Ouyang Qian, the third-generation eldest lady of the Ouyang family. Although she appears to be in charge of the Ouyang Group, since her grandfather, who was the old Prince, became brain-dead by unknown means, and her father’s bizarre car accident death, she has also been controlled by someone.”
Director Qin pointed to a photo of a young woman in her twenties, bright and beautiful, and explained to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei had already heard from Chen Biao about Ouyang Qian and said, “Do you mean the person controlling her is her boyfriend, a man named Liu Bing?”
Director Qin nodded, pointing to another photo on the table, a tall, handsome man in his thirties wearing a suit and tie, and said, “This is Liu Bing, one of the six adopted sons of the old Prince.”
“From behind the scenes, he manipulated events, causing the Ouyang Entertainment Group’s various nightclubs and bars to recruit many young, beautiful women as waitresses. These women were then taken away by another of the old Prince’s adopted sons, Zhu Liu, and vanished without a trace.”
At this point, Director Qin pointed to Zhu Liu’s photo and explained to Lin Fei.
Lin Fei asked, “Haven’t you investigated Zhu Liu?”
Director Qin frowned and said, “We have, but there’s insufficient evidence. Just as I said at the beginning, although there are clues, the adversary’s influence is vast. Despite their heinous actions, people like Wen Bozhong, with power and authority, cover up for them, so the case of the missing women has made no progress.”
Lin Fei suddenly thought of something and said, “So I went to the base to seek help from Commander Chen and handed over evidence of Wen Bozhong and Wang Yan shielding crimes and abusing power to Commander Chen.”
Director Qin looked at Lin Fei in surprise and said, “You knew all along.”
Lin Fei replied, “I just thought of it.”
Director Qin sighed and said, “I had no choice. If I didn’t do this, Wen Bozhong and Wang Yan would continue their lawlessness, endangering the lives of those missing girls. I had to turn to Commander Chen.
Now that Wen Bozhong and Wang Yan have been removed from power, their ability to protect the old Prince’s forces is gone. We must rescue those missing girls.”
Lin Fei thought to himself that Director Qin was as upright as his name suggested, unafraid of the tiger-like Wen Bozhong or his superior Wang Yan, all for the sake of justice and rescuing those missing girls, ultimately bringing them down.
“Since Director Qin already has all the leads, there must be a specific plan for the rescue. Could you share it?” Lin Fei humbly inquired.
Director Qin said, “The first target should be Zhu Liu. He has a villa estate at the eastern foot of Lotus Mountain. The missing girls are very likely in his villa estate.”
“The second target is Liu Bing. After capturing Zhu Liu, we’ll get him to confess his accomplice Liu Bing. When we capture Liu Bing, we’ll have him confess the old Prince’s crimes and hideaway, thus eradicating the old Prince’s power, returning peace to the citizens of Shencheng.”
Lin Fei nodded, “Alright, then let’s follow Director Qin’s plan and head to Zhu Liu’s villa estate now.”
Director Qin packed the photos and documents back into his briefcase.
At this moment, Qin Yunyue, Xiao Ling, and Xie Wenbo all said to Lin Fei, “Lin Fei, we’ll go with you to help.”
They had gotten a general understanding of the missing women case from Lin Fei and Director Qin’s conversation.
Lin Fei said, “You guys stay here and protect Zimo, Yuxi, Yixin, Xiao Xiao, and the others. Director Qin, Leng Ying, and I will go.”
Director Qin also said, “Lin Fei is right. This operation against the old Prince’s forces is extremely dangerous. You must protect the female colleagues well, and nothing unexpected should happen.”
Qin Yunyue, Xiao Ling, and Xie Wenbo then stopped insisting on accompanying Lin Fei on the investigation.
Lin Fei, Leng Ying, and Director Qin were about to leave when Housekeeper Zhang came in through the villa gate.
Housekeeper Zhang, with a worried expression, came to Zheng Yutong and said, “Miss, the master just called to say there’s trouble at the mid-mountain villa. He wants you and your friends to be extra cautious.”
Zheng Yutong’s face changed slightly, and she asked, “Housekeeper Zhang, what’s going on at home?”
“The master only said that the old Prince’s people came to the villa looking for Young Master Lin and Miss Liu, injuring several bodyguards,” Housekeeper Zhang replied with a frown.
Zheng Yutong immediately stood up and said, “No, I have to go back and check it out!”
“Yutong, I’ll go back with you,” Xiao Ling said to Zheng Yutong.
“Xiao Ling, Yutong, you must stay calm.” At this moment, Lin Fei said to Zheng Yutong and Xiao Ling, “It would be very dangerous for you to return now.”
Then, as if thinking of something, Lin Fei said, “No, not only is the Lotus Mountain villa dangerous, but even this Natural Island is not safe. I fear the old Prince’s men will find their way here soon.”
Director Qin nodded in agreement, “Lin Fei, your concern is not unfounded. The old Prince’s forces are quite resourceful. They will soon discover that you and your friends are here. Even with soldiers guarding, it would be hard to fend them off.”
Lin Fei said, “Looks like the only way is to send you all to the base so I can be at ease.”
Ten minutes later, two transport helicopters in the courtyard were ready for take-off, with their blades whirling.
In the villa courtyard, Lin Fei said to Zheng Yutong, “Rest assured, Director Qin and I will go to your mid-mountain villa to take a look. You should settle at the base first; the Zheng family will be fine.”
Although worrying about her family, Zheng Yutong nodded to Lin Fei.
Then, Xiao Ling held her hand and they walked to one of the helicopters.
Meanwhile, Qin Zimo, Yuan Yuxi, Liu Wei, and the others bid farewell to Lin Fei, reminding him to be cautious. Lin Fei nodded to each of them.
Then Qin Yunyue, Xie Wenbo, and Li Qing accompanied the women onto the same helicopter with Xiao Ling and Zheng Yutong.
Lin Fei, Director Qin, and Leng Ying boarded the other helicopter.
The two helicopters took off from the villa courtyard—one heading to the Shencheng base, and the other to the Zheng family mid-mountain villa at Lotus Mountain…
