Chapter 95: The Truth Behind the Case

Around two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhang Ze and Cai Hu returned to the South Metallurgy City People's Hospital.

That evening, the two made an appointment to meet Zhuang Ning and others.

Zhang Ze and Cai Hu entered the hotel private room and saw Zhuang Ning and another staff member from the detective agency.

Ma Cheng and Qin Yao were also seated there.

It is noteworthy that Cai Hu and Zhang Ze had spent the past two days roaming around Qingfeng Ancient Town, and the distractions from matters involving Ren Xue'er and Wen Song had dispersed their attention considerably.

Upon returning to the hospital that day and seeing his mother's condition, he could accept it with equanimity.

Qin Yao, after these days of recuperation, the tragic scene from back then had gradually faded from her mind.

Sitting beside Ma Cheng at this moment, her spirits were quite high.

“...”

“You two are finally here.”

Ma Cheng saw Zhang Ze and Cai Hu arrive and spoke softly.

“I was coaxing my mother to sleep in the hospital, which wasted some time with Brother Ze.”

Although Cai Hu could face his family's situation, after such a great disaster, it was not easy for him to appear relaxed.

Naturally, his tone was somewhat heavy.

Zhang Ze and Cai Hu quickly took their seats, then listened as Zhuang Ning introduced the person beside him.

The other was named Wu Shiqi. Although he was also from the detective agency, in fact he belonged to the action team under the General Administration.

Thus, he and Zhuang Ning were not in a superior-subordinate relationship.

During this time, Zhang Ze also discovered that Wu Shiqi, like Zhuang Ning, was a third-grade martial artist.

Moreover, Wu Shiqi's body strength was nearly 800S, which, within the range of 500S to 1000S for third-grade martial artists, was considered quite formidable.

Wu Shiqi did not elaborate much on the introduction, and Zhuang Ning quickly looked at Cai Hu and said sternly, “Your parents' case is actually no longer our team's responsibility.”

“Wu Shiqi's action team has already taken over this case, so he will provide you with detailed explanations.”

Cai Hu nodded slightly and turned to look at Wu Shiqi.

From beginning to end, Cai Hu had not responded to Zhuang Ning in any way.

Wu Shiqi could also understand Cai Hu's mood and quickly took over the conversation, explaining, “The two cultists who persecuted your parents are named Zheng Yangliang and Qi Yu.”

He placed two photos on the table, and then supplemented, “Both of these people are third-grade martial artists and are considered inner members of the cult.”

“In our investigation of these two, we found that they had frequent contact with Liu Ying. This Liu Ying, we discovered, is Chen Hao's personal driver.”

“Because of the involvement with Guangming Investment, in the previous actions, we chose to conceal this from you.”

“Is there something special about Guangming Investment?”

Zhang Ze, as an outsider, did not know these things, and everyone could understand that.

Thus, Zhuang Ning took over his question and said, “Guangming Investment, if you say, is one of the top two investment companies in our North River Province. The current chairman is named Chen Million, which is the father of this Chen Hao.”

“You all know that the nation has many resources tilted towards martial artists, and Chen Million's ability to develop Guangming Investment to its current extent is deeply related to his fifth-grade martial artist cultivation.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ze could not help but feel a jolt in his heart.

Another damn fifth-grade martial artist!

I almost died at the hands of a fifth-grade martial artist!

Zhang Ze's helplessness in his heart was not noticed by anyone.

In comparison, although Zhuang Ning and Wu Shiqi's words gave Cai Hu some clues, they still could not satisfy him.

Therefore, Cai Hu followed up with a question, “If it is only Chen Million's fifth-grade cultivation, I do not think you would be so timid in the face of Chen Hao and Liu Ying, right?”

“And just one Guangming Investment would make you choose to hide the news from me?”

Cai Hu's question struck to the heart, and the two Zhuang Ning exchanged glances, as if they had reached some consensus.

A moment later.

Wu Shiqi said in a deep voice, “If it were merely Chen Million and Guangming Investment, we naturally would not need to mobilize our action team so grandly.”

“However, what I am about to explain to you, you must keep confidential.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Wu Shiqi spoke again, “In our subsequent investigations, we discovered that Guangming Investment has had significant problems with its fund flows in the past half year.”

“A large part of the stable sources, we believe, is the doing of the cult.”

“Moreover, the destinations of Guangming Investment's funds also make us very concerned. A considerable portion has flowed into the medicine pill industry of our province...”

Here, Wu Shiqi stopped saying more.

However, these alone were enough to shock Zhang Ze and Cai Hu and the others.

What did it mean?

Was the cult trying to get involved in the medicine pill industry?

Although Zhang Ze had already had some premonition from his earlier conversation with Zhuang Ning, when he truly heard such news, it still caused a shock in his heart.

For martial artists, the medicine pill and weapon industries could be said to be absolute lifelines!

A few minutes later, Cai Hu finally broke the silence among them.

He asked Wu Shiqi in a deep voice, “I only want to know if you have now controlled Chen Hao and Liu Ying?”

“Hehe~”

Wu Shiqi chuckled lightly, then continued, “If these two had not been controlled, would I tell you this?”

After hearing, Cai Hu said softly, “Since this matter involves many parties, I will not disrupt your plans, but please quickly determine the whereabouts of Zheng Yangliang and the two!”

“I must see their corpses!”

“It is necessary!”

Understanding Cai Hu's deep hatred, Wu Shiqi naturally would not deny this.

He assured him, “Do not worry about this point. Leaving aside that we need their testimony, your parents' case is also a major case in South Metallurgy City in recent years!”

“Moreover, exterminating cultists is a common mission for us martial artists.”

Upon hearing this guarantee, Cai Hu felt much more at ease.

That night,

Zhang Ze, however, could not sleep for a long time.

Naturally, he was not thinking about any girl, but was calculating a big matter!

Next, He Yue City.

Speaking of Yu Qian, recently his mood was extremely good.

After the martial arts exchange conference, although he had not received attention from Zhao Jinghong, a high-level martial artist, he had also completed his many years' wish in martial dao.

And these days, he was preparing for the wedding!

The 400,000 borrowed from Zhang Ze allowed him to quickly book the wedding hotel, and the wedding suite was also undergoing final decoration.

Everything was developing in a good direction.

“You martial artists have such good endurance?”

The woman was Yu Qian's fiancée. At this moment, she was holding Yu Qian's neck with both hands, speaking coquettishly.

Yu Qian flipped over and lay beside the woman, smiling but not answering.

He was panting.

Just then, he heard his phone ring.

“Who is it?”

“Why call at this time~”

The woman was a bit unhappy.

Yu Qian saw the caller ID and quickly sat up.

He laughed, “It is the Zhang Ze I mentioned to you who lent me money.”

Yu Qian quickly picked up the phone.

He hurriedly asked, “What's the matter, little Ze?”

“Oh~”

“Nothing, just wondering what you are doing~”

Yu Qian was speechless.

Thinking to himself, “I cannot tell you what I am doing, can I?”
