Wealthy Chapter 572

I said, “It’s not that I think it’s a coincidence, I just think something’s not right. Jiang Ming is such a cautious and perverted person, how could he let someone so flamboyant do things for him? Besides, a rich kid can obviously have plenty of lapdogs to do these things for him, there’s no need for him to show up on his own.”

Zhao Zichen said, “Look, you have so many lapdogs, but didn’t you still come to Ningcheng yourself? It’s the same for me.”

“That’s why I haven’t come to a conclusion. Well, this place is not for people, let’s go and change places.”

Unexpectedly, Shagwai sat on his butt and refused to stand up.

“Better not, none of the hotels out there are safe. We’re brown as a cop, we’re not so calculating.”

I laughed, “Who asked you to stay in a hotel, my house, come on, you’re not leaving you’re on your own, we’re leaving.”

On hearing this, Xia Gehuai jumped up from the bed, grabbed some clothes and stuffed them into the suitcase.

“Damn, you rich motherf*ckers like you, you’ve got a house where there’s a view.”

That was true, I had houses in the better cities of the country because Junran was originally in real estate and would develop properties everywhere.

It was only when we got to the place that we realised what the problem was.

The house was only minimally furnished and unfurnished.

It didn’t matter to me, Xia Gehuai and Cai Xiaobing, we had lived in tougher conditions anyway.

But Zhao Zichen and Chu Xiaoxiao couldn’t stand it.

I could understand that Chu Xiaoxiao couldn’t stand it, she was a woman, but Zhao Zichen was so pretentious that Xia Gehuai and I rolled our eyes.

I asked Cai Xiaobing to accompany them to IKEA to buy some furniture, so I could stay home and ask Xia Gehuai what was going on.

“I’ve told you the whole story. You later said that the driver must not have been used specifically to set me up, but must have been arrested and wanted to ask something out of him to keep him alive for so long. I started with that and did some more investigation.”

I was reassured by Xia Gehuai’s investigative skills, worthy of being a first-tier detective.

He said, “I think the driver either saw something or went on some errand for Yun Hai. But I think it’s more likely that he saw something by accident.”

“Why?”

“Because they’re missing.” Xia Gehuai said, “The Yun family father and son must not have taken this driver as one of their own. I remembered that when I checked the surveillance, these two people were missing, but the driver wasn’t missing. This means that these two people dumped the driver and went somewhere else on their own.”

I remembered the two tickets to Si city, and all the clues connected at once.

“That’s right, the two men ditched the driver and went to Si city on their own.”

I told Xia Gehuai about the tickets, and Xia Gehuai smacked his lips and said, “Such a coincidence? But this verified that my guess was right, these two people didn’t trust the driver, so they ditched him. If the driver saw anything, he had two ideas, either to blackmail the Yun family’s father and son and extort them, or to call the police and save his own ass. I had my brother check again this morning for me and Zhao Qiyu did make a call to the police. I’ve got the recording of the call, so listen to it.”

He opened his phone and played it for me to listen to.

The sound was noisy, and Zhao Qiyu was breathing heavily on the other end of the line, as if she was very nervous.

“I, I’m going to report it …… no, I’m not, I said it wrong, I typed it wrong ……”

Pop, then the phone hung up.

“The 110 platform thought it was a prank, so they didn’t put this in the report log. But it was pretty much what I thought, Qiyu Zhao did call the police.”

I re-listened again, and when I heard the word no, I pressed back to listen again.

Seeing that I kept repeating myself, Xia Gehuai asked me if I heard anything unusual.

“I’ll have to ask Meng Meng to do a vocal analysis for the details, but according to my intuition, the two words were not spoken by the same person.”

Dumbfounded, Xia Gehuai re-listened to the words himself and shook his head straight away, saying that he couldn’t hear them and that he felt they were spoken by the same person.

“The voice is exactly the same.”

I said, “You don’t know that some human parties can change their voices, it’s a mastery of the Jianghu Colour Sect. We learned some of it when we were in the army, but we weren’t as proficient, we mainly imitated various natural sounds. But I could hear the second half of the sentence saying I’m not going to call the police, which was said by another person. Listen, after he said I’m going to call the police, his voice gave a sharp pause, not a natural pause, it came to an abrupt end.”

“So someone made a fake vocal tape? Why would he do that?”

I shook my head, “No, after he finished the sentence, he was gagged so he couldn’t make a sound, and this abrupt stop was his gasp suddenly heard. If you listen to the second half of the sentence again, it’s clear that there’s no more gasping, which is very unusual. Although the tone of voice and the intonation are imitated very similarly, this imitator didn’t notice that Zhao Qiyu had been gasping for breath. So it can’t be the same person speaking.”

Xia Gehuai listened to the recording again carefully, then said, dumbfounded, “Really.”

“Because, if the police weren’t cancelled, the police would surely have sent someone out to locate this mobile phone number. If Zhao Qiyu is in a place where the other party doesn’t want to be exposed, that would be a problem. So, if we find out where this call was made, we can find out where Qiyu Zhao was at the time and maybe we’ll find something interesting.”

“That’s great, hurry up and get your people to check! Zhang Chao, it’s really too bad that you don’t come to do criminal investigation, if you did, wouldn’t those thugs have nowhere to hide.”

“Alright, don’t pat me on the back, I’ll have my men check it out.”

I immediately contacted Meng Meng and asked him to investigate.

It only took Mon Mon two minutes to give me the answer, but the answer took me somewhat by surprise.

“Mandarin Road, Kwong Yiu Mansion.”

“This name is so familiar, can you help me find out what this Guangyao Mansion has to do with Guangyao Media?”

“The registered address of Kougyao Media is Kougyao Mansion, and this whole building is Kougyao Media’s asset.”
