Chen Liangdong said, “Don’t make sensational claims. Mr. Jiang Junlin has a strong determination and won’t do such a thing.”

“Truth be told, old man, Jiang Junlin is dead, and the Triad’s in the hands of Gu Ci. He’s already transferred the authority to Gu Ci. If he dies, can Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan be separated?” Gu Ziyu said, “Isn’t this unrealistic?”

Chen Liangdong began to understand that no matter what, Jiang Junlin must stay alive.

“This matter is too wide-reaching, and we don’t have any leads yet. Do you have any clues?”

“Minister!” Gu Ziyu said, “It should be at that level. The rest is uncertain. Look into who was extradited this time, who negotiated it, and what they’ve done. There must be traces.”

Chen Liangdong also had his own considerations. This matter is very tricky. The Triad obviously doesn’t belong to any camp, and now someone wants to involve them. If they can persuade Jiang Junlin when he returns to the country, that would be ideal. After all, the Jiang family is a vulnerable spot, and Jiang Junlin is cautious. If they can’t persuade him, they’ll have to confront him.

Gu Ziyu said, “Old man, say something not so pleasant to hear. Using the Triad for our purposes, is it wrong?”

Chen Liangdong nodded at him, “Don’t even think about such thoughts.” “Others are doing it, why can’t 1 think about it?”

“Others are others, you are you!” Chen Liangdong said, “1 have a plan for this. When we go fishing later, I’ll talk to Old Zhang about it. Investigating this matter shouldn’t be too difficult.”

“You need to hurry; they’re still waiting for news,” Gu Ziyu urged. “Time waits for no one.”

“It’s the third day of the lunar new year. Everyone is on vacation. Even if we need to do something, it will have to wait until the seventh day. Why the rush?” Chen Liangdong frowned. “If Jiang Junlin is in trouble and he’s transferred the power to Gu Ci, it means he doesn’t trust anyone. If he really dies, won’t the Triad be out of control?”

“That’s the idea!” Gu Ziyu made up a story. “Maybe Gu Ci will be married off with Jiang Junlin, and then it’ll be really tricky.”

After all, he didn’t want to go against his parents!

Gu Ziyu frowned and said, “Cunning rabbits have died; running dogs are cooked. Although this has been the case since ancient times, it still sends shivers down one’s spine. If 1 were Jiang Junlin, I’d be chilled too.”

Chen Liangdong chuckled, “I know you have a close relationship with the Jiang family. Right and wrong depend on one’s perspective, and interests differ. When we go fishing later, don’t interrupt. You need to make yourself familiar; even though Old Zhang has retired, he still has a lot of influence, and it’ll be useful in the future.”

“Understood.”

In Paris, late at night.

Gu Ci sat on the rooftop, sipping a small drink, while Qin Wan held a cigar and sat beside her. Since Gu Ci arrived in Paris, she had become even quieter, only speaking when necessary.

Qin Wan had been out all day today, gathering information and summarizing it for Dr. North. She came up to find Gu Ci. “Want to smoke?”

Gu Ci took the cigar she handed over, sniffed it at the tip of her nose, but didn’t light it. Tonight, the snow had stopped, and it was a clear day. The snow on the ground hadn’t melted, and the rooftop was still windy. Gu Ci was wrapped in a down jacket as she sat on the sofa, with a bottle of white wine and glasses on the table. She had already drunk half of the bottle.

Qin Wan didn’t hesitate either, poured herself a glass, and drank it all in one go. Despite her young age, she had no qualms about smoking or drinking.

“Gu Ci, have you and Third Master broken up?” Qin Wan asked.

Gu Ci chuckled, “We never dated, so it doesn’t count as breaking up.”

Qin Wan thought to herself that even though you didn’t date, you kissed and hugged each other, which was quite unusual. However, she didn’t press further and said, “These days have been calm, and there’s nothing much going on. Do you want me to take you out dancing? Parisian guys have style and are gentlemen. You might have a romantic encounter.”

With no leads on her brother’s situation, Qin Wan didn’t feel like partying.

Qin Wan believed in enjoying life to the fullest. Investigating the prison was the responsibility of the information and surveillance teams. Waiting at home or waiting while going out for fun was still waiting. She didn’t want to waste any time.

Gu Ci, on the other hand, enjoyed tranquility. Qin Wan didn’t insist, and they continued to have a drink together.

“Do your foster parents treat you well?” Gu Ci asked.

“Neither good nor bad,” Qin Wan replied.

“Do you dislike them?”

“How should 1 put it? They’re not my biological parents, so they have no obligation to be good to me. So, I can’t say 1 dislike them. Besides, if they hadn’t adopted me, I might have ended up with a different master,” Qin Wan said with a light laugh. “My foster parents adopted two children, and 1 have a younger brother. 1 was a troublesome and rebellious child from a young age, always causing trouble at school. They were constantly called to school and scolded by teachers. It wasn’t a pleasant feeling for them. Since I’m not their biological child, they naturally got tired of it. I started living in a boarding school from the fifth grade, and after entering junior high, they only send me living expenses regularly and hardly bother about me. Fortunately, they didn’t interfere, and I could learn and train with my master, which I enjoyed.”

Gu Ci glanced at her left hand, which she had always worn black thin gloves on. She noticed that Gu Ci was looking at her hand and gracefully removed the glove.

Her little finger was missing; her left hand had only four fingers.

“It doesn’t affect my shooting, and it doesn’t affect my ability to beat people up,” Qin Wan raised her hand. Her fingers were naturally beautiful, a pair of hands that were born for playing the piano. Even with the missing finger, they were still beautiful.

“What happened in that case? Can you talk about it?” Gu Ci knew that Dr. North had always been concerned about this case, and she didn’t know that Qin Wan was related to her brother, so she had always believed the case to be genuine.

But now that she knew Qin Wan was her brother’s person, she was sure there was more to the case than met the eye.

Qin Wan’s smile faded slightly, and Gu Ci said, “If you don’t want to talk about it, it’s okay. My brother has never mentioned it.”

“My target was Cheng Zhang, the mastermind behind the coastal economic case. My master had a detailed plan, but the other side was very cunning, and we couldn’t get any evidence. In such cases, without solid evidence, you can’t convict them. They stay in prison like they’re staying in a hotel, with no impact at all. Originally, no one planned to use a seduction strategy. What’s interesting is that his son, Cheng Ming, fell in love with me at first sight. He has always liked innocent young girls. Without my master’s consent, I approached him on my own and entered his home. I was careless. Their safe was custom-made, and when I entered it, the alarm went off. After they sucked out the air, I passed out. When I woke up, I had already been drugged. Since I was a minor, they treated it as if I had accidentally entered a forbidden area. Cheng Zhang wanted to kill me, but Cheng Ming had other intentions and volunteered to handle me.”

“That idiot is both foolish and cunning. He actually wanted me to become a knowledgeable ghost and confess to his great deeds. In his courtyard, just three days ago, they buried a female corpse. I knocked him unconscious when he was confused by emotions. Considering that Cheng Zhang hadn’t been brought to justice yet and that Cheng Ming was the biggest breakthrough, 1 spared his life, fabricated the illusion of him raping and then killing me. Unfortunately, no matter how hard I looked, I couldn’t find the missing little finger of the female corpse buried in the courtyard. At the time, 1 also considered that Cheng Zhang would definitely try to frame someone to save his son, and my master was thinking about how to perfect this chain of evidence. So, I simply cut off my own little finger, hid it in Cheng Ming’s bedroom, and created the illusion that he had collected it as a trophy. Later, my master only needed to adjust the fingerprints and data to match, to avoid implicating my family. Cheng Zhang hadn’t been brought to justice yet, and no one knew who the female corpse was buried in the courtyard, so that corpse became me.”

Gu Ci also understood now, “Because of Cheng Ming, Cheng Zhang showed his true colors, and he was later investigated. It was by a twist of fate that Chen Liangdong was assigned to investigate your case, and that’s why this case came to light. No wonder Cheng Ming’s sentence was reduced to five years later, and a new chain of evidence appeared. If that body wasn’t you, then it must have been someone else. The case was retried, and I haven’t followed up on what happened next..”
