Chapter 558 A Chill Down the Spine
The old Triangle, the Gui family.
Gui Mengjun sat on the sofa, silent for a long while, before finally looking up and saying, "Me and Mingming…!"
Master Gui turned around, sighing as he interrupted, "Alas, if I were fifty years old this year, I wouldn't meddle in your private affairs. But the older generation is getting old, living day by day. While I'm still here, while the old governor is still here, make plans early."
Gui Mengjun rubbed his hands together, not saying a word.
"I know you don't want to marry Mingming, but you've taken over the family business, so just endure a little." Master Gui's words were gentle, but filled with an undeniable authority.
"Let's talk about it when I get back from Dragon City." Gui Mengjun still didn't fully agree.
Master Gui walked to the window, looking out at the scenery with his hands behind his back, and said faintly, "On this business trip, take a trip to Yanbei. Pay a visit to Miss Pu, show her the respect that is due."
"Alright." Gui Mengjun nodded slowly.
"Go back and rest early." Master Gui instructed before slowly heading upstairs.
Gui Mengjun frowned and left his father's residence.
...
Dragon City, People's Hospital.
While Fei the Bald was having shrapnel removed in the emergency room, Su Tianyu had already taken care of the wound on his leg and came to the corridor.
"Are you okay?!" Kong ZhengHui asked.
"I'm fine, just got hit by some fragments." Su Tianyu waved his hand. "It's mainly Lao Fei, he was pretty unlucky, got a piece of shrapnel in the gut."
"What happened?" Yu Mingyuan frowned, hands on his hips as he questioned, "How did someone with a lei get into headquarters?"
"I don't know where this guy popped out from." Su Tianyu shook his head. "Lao Fei ran into him on the fourth floor, felt like he was trying to steal something, so he called out to him. Who knew… this kid was cornered on the second floor and directly detonated the lei, wanting to perish with us."
"Did he steal anything?" Kong ZhengHui asked.
"Shouldn't have gotten anything." Su Tianyu paused before replying, "We searched him, just a phone, no communication records, no photos or anything. Probably wanted to make a move, just happened to run into Lao Fei coming back, but the specifics, we'll have to wait for the police to investigate."
Da Bai sat on the long chair, also cursing with a frustrated expression, "This Yang Hao Cheng usually looks honest and simple, who knew he was a desperado!"
"You know him?" Su Tianyu turned his head and asked.
"How could I not know him, he's been here for almost a year, right?" Da Bai softly replied, "He's been working in the mining area for over half a year, usually pretty diligent, pretty responsible. Tonghui even promoted him, made him a team leader in the supervisor's office."
As soon as he said that, the brothers all turned to look at Zhou Tonghui.
"Yeah, I know this guy too." Zhou Tonghui frowned and recalled, "He joined the association about ten months ago. He used to be a laborer, has skills, he's an electrician."
"He must have gotten cancer and was bought off." Da Bai crossed his legs and said, "Normal people don't do things like this."
"What was he trying to steal?" Su Tianyu muttered in confusion.
"Definitely aiming for the arms business." Da Bai softly added, "What else could it be? The terminal? Would we put something like that in the association?"
Su Tianyu slowly nodded, sitting on the long chair with lingering fear and said, "Damn, this was really dangerous. Today it was just me and Lao Fei, if it had been Da Bai… he'd be at the crematorium right now."
Everyone's expressions became serious upon hearing this, including Da Bai who didn't refute, because he understood his own abilities too well. With his movement speed, if the criminal had been running at him with a lei at the time, the result might have been very different.
After a moment of silence, Yu Mingyuan immediately instructed, "Xiaoyu, call Brother Wang later and have him classify this case."
"Got it."
"Damn, unlucky." Yu Mingyuan sighed, turning to Su Tianyu and asking, "What did Tang Shengde finally say about the goods?"
Su Tianyu wasn't in a good mood, waving his hand as he replied, "I'm really tired today, let's talk about it tomorrow."
That night, Fei the Bald's abdomen, intestines were stitched up with a total of fifteen stitches before he was wheeled out of the operating room.
"Is he alright?" Yu Mingyuan bent down and asked.
"The intestines are fine, but both my balls have soft tissue contusions." Fei the Bald cursed with a pale face, "It's been three or four days, and they still haven't gone down."
Upon hearing this, everyone knew that this bastard was probably fine.
...
The next afternoon.
Su Tianyu was sleeping soundly in bed when Zhou Tonghui woke him up.
"What's up?" Su Tianyu rubbed his eyes and asked.
"Brother Wang is here, come downstairs and take a look."
"Alright!" Su Tianyu threw back the covers and walked into the bathroom.
A dozen minutes later, in the downstairs hall, Wang Daolin was eating the lunch that Da Bai had bought back.
Su Tianyu walked to the dining table, asking with a mournful face, "How's the investigation going? Brother Wang!"
"The preliminary autopsy results are… other than having some hemorrhoids, this person's body had almost nothing wrong with it." Wang Daolin is currently the chief of the Zha Nan District police, personally appointed by Li Mingsheng.
"No illness?" Da Bai was a little surprised.
"No, a healthy person." Wang Daolin shook his head.
"No, his body might not be sick, but that doesn't mean his brain is normal." Da Bai was a little disbelieving, "Does he have a mental illness?"
"Do you think that boss would let a mentally ill person do something like this?" Wang Daolin asked rhetorically, "This hasn't been found out yet, but it's very likely not the case."
"Then that's strange, what normal person would detonate a lei?" Da Bai twisted his eyebrows. "This is too scary, almost like someone wearing a headscarf."
Wang Daolin reached into his bag and took out a file folder, softly saying, "This Yang Hao Cheng's identity may also be half-true."
Su Tianyu took the information, opening it while asking, "What do you mean by half-true?"
"Yang Hao Cheng used to be a laborer, whether he died outside the district is unclear." Wang Daolin explained in a low voice, "Do you remember the chaos of the laborers returning to the city back then?"
"I remember." Su Tianyu nodded.
"Back then, as long as you gave the management committee money, you could get a household registration." Wang Daolin lowered his voice and said, "This month we've solved three cases, the criminal suspects' identities were all abnormal, all impersonations."
Su Tianyu was stunned.
Wang Daolin paused, kindly reminding, "Your association has so many people, and they are all mainly from the lower classes, are their identities… really easy for you to distinguish?"
"You mean…!"
"It's possible that more than one person has infiltrated the Tongji Association." Wang Daolin added again, "A big tree attracts the wind, brother!"
