Lin Chen suspected that there were problems with his hearing and memory systems.
If he remembered correctly, last night, Chao Mingming had been sitting in front of the computer as a melancholy teenager. It wasn't until very late at night that he fell asleep like an insecure child. The only one who had the opportunity to install those small devices was Only Xing Conglian is only one person.
But now, Xing Conglian is sitting in the sun with a pleasing smile in his eyes. His eyelashes are too long, and the moment he blinks, the surrounding sunlight is as sweet as honey.
Lin Chen sighed, but found that he did not have any resentment after being deceived. He felt that he seemed to be used to all kinds of strange reasons.
For example, a house suddenly replaced by the government, or a street that is said to have been bought by someone and then suddenly renovated. Therefore, compared with the behavior of some people who always put good people and good deeds on the government, "going out to work is insecure." This kind of damn explanation seems to be quite distracting
The sun was shining brightly in the afternoon, and there were sounds of students chasing and playing outside the window.
The haze that was betrayed and framed by the old classmates also disappeared with the obvious interruption of the two, Lin Chen thought, it's not a big deal, you can't make everyone in the world like you.
It's just Zheng Dongdong, but it's obviously not so easy.
It was quiet in the conference room, no one was wearing a mechanical watch, and the ticking of the hands was scary.
The chubby hotel manager seemed to be waiting for Lingchi Piglet, his face was frighteningly pale, he was waiting for the final verdict, but Xing Conglian just stared at him with slightly smiling eyes and didn't say anything.
Only the oldest hunter can completely control the rhythm of the hunt from scratch. He sometimes gives a little hope, and then cruelly quenches this hope. Little by little, he drives Zheng Dongdong to the edge of the cliff and tortures the With his fragile nerves, Zheng Dongdong will probably be not far from the mental hospital if he only takes a step forward.
Sure enough, the sound of the car's engine starting came from outside the window, and the sudden sound made Zheng Dongdong shiver violently.
Xing Cong knocked on the table three times, and then slowly said: "Manager Zheng, can you really explain it?"
In the face of absolutely strong evidence, Zheng Dongdong couldn't say anything at all.
But Xing Conglian, how could he let him go so easily: "I really can't understand, why do you want to sprinkle marijuana on my bed, Cohen May Intercontinental Hotel, does it now provide this special service?" He still While laughing, suddenly, his lips were slightly raised, and he asked, "You came up with such a great idea?"
Perhaps Xing Conglian's question was too inductive, as if a strange light was torn out in the vast darkness, Zheng Dongdong raised his head suddenly, he looked around, and his eyes finally settled on the butler at the end of the long table.
Like crazy, he stood up and knocked off all the objects in front of him, chairs, arms, and even the hard gun, he threw himself down to the family's legs, and said with a kind of cry: "Chen Steward, Chen Butler, you want to save me! Didn't you say that there would be no problem, isn't it marijuana, but why did the Interpol come, please, save me!"
At that moment, Lin Chen clearly saw that Butler Chen's always old-fashioned and mean face showed cracks, and he seemed to hear the sound of expensive porcelain cracking.
Butler Chen always combed back neatly and became messy. Although he was still pretending to be calm, the panic and panic in his eyes betrayed him. The desire to kick the monstrous creature away.
However, his opponent was Xing Conglian, the experienced hunter, who would not give him any chance to come back.
Xing Conglian smiled slightly, as if he finally got the long-awaited answer, but there was not much shock or surprise on his face. He deliberately ignored the two people in the corner who were playing the betrayal scene, and turned decisively to the other side of the long table. , said to the leader of the serious case C team who had been pretending to be aired: "As team leader, can it be confirmed now that the so-called drug possession case is just a case of planting?"
"Of course." Ren Xian looked at Xing Conglian's face, thinking that you shouldn't ask me to confirm this kind of trivial matter!
Xing Conglian nodded, then turned to Vice Captain Jiang, who was stunned from beginning to end, and said, "Then trouble Captain Jiang to detain the suspect to prevent collusion."
His last two words were biting a little hard, as if he was deliberately saying it to someone.
Jiang Chao heard the words and stood up, and Lin Chen saw that just as Jiang Chao stood up, the mobile phone he was carrying seemed to vibrate.
Jiang Chao lowered his head and looked at the text message he just received on his mobile phone. It was a little incredible, but he was an experienced criminal police officer. He instantly controlled his expression and walked out of the room to call someone. So, the "guards" he brought came into play. The two police officers followed him back to the room, and they dragged Zheng Dongdong, who was crying bitterly, out of the room.
Lin Chen did the math, Zheng Dongdong was the third batch of people to be cleared out.
Although there was only one person missing, the conference room seemed to be more than half empty. The clouds blocked the sunlight. The room was terribly gloomy.
"Captain Xing, that's really good tricks." The dull voice came from the butler's throat, like the slight and harsh sound of a stone rubbing against a glass, "Are you going to arrest me too?" He still pretended Arrogant, but his trembling lips and fingers betrayed him.
"Of course not." Xing Conglian leaned back in his chair and said in a very casual tone, "Since the suspect accused you of instigating him to frame us with drugs, then you still have a chance to tell yourself, like You gave me the same chance just now."
His slightly smiling tone revealed a deep-rooted mockery.
Chen Ping swallowed, not ready to accept such kindness: "I have nothing to say. Since you are framed, why can't I be framed?"
Looking at Chen Ping's slightly raised chin, and listening to his sophistry words, Lin Chen suddenly felt very disappointed. Even Zheng Dongdong knew that he was afraid or fearful. In an instant, he must regret it with all his heart. He hopes that time can be reversed, hoping that nothing has happened. This is the emotional response a person should have after doing something wrong.
But what about Chen Ping, the serious and rigid housekeeper, the person who appeared at his door every three years and drove him to the dark life, after being exposed to the dirty methods, he still doesn't know what his regrets are. stuff. Looking into the eyes of the butler, he knew that he was not pretending, but that he believed that he was not wrong from beginning to end.
In fact, for a long time, he had never resented this middle-aged man who had been carrying out the will of the Chen family. Loyalty was not a dark virtue, but now, he suddenly realized that those who were driven out at night or dismissed Days have become meaningless.
"Chen Ping, I think you haven't figured out the current situation." Finally, he felt that he should say something.
Hearing the name of the person whom he had been suppressing all along, there was a flush of offense and humiliation on the butler's face.
"Lin Chen, you don't understand at all."
"It's you who don't understand!" Lin Chen couldn't help clapping the table, he couldn't communicate with the person at the end of the long table at a normal speed, "Cannabis? Do you think this is irrelevant, do you think As long as Zheng Dongdong bites us, can Xing Conglian be ruined and we have nothing? Interpol, I don't care whether you contact Interpol intentionally or not, this matter is far more complicated than you can imagine, 10,000 times. Do you think Chen Zhengxue will thank you for killing me faithfully for him after he knows about this?"
Lin Chen didn't know why he was so angry, but he really hadn't been so angry for a long time, maybe his voice was too loud, or maybe he was too immersed in this kind of emotion, so he didn't pay attention Arrived, the door of the conference room was opened at an unknown time.
The cold voice entered his mind before the picture.
"Yeah, I'm very happy."
Xing Conglian also heard that voice, and he looked at the door faster than Lin Chen.
There, stood a middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was wearing a long black trench coat, his belt was tightly buckled, his back was straight, his hair was combed back like Chen Ping, his eyes were sullen, and there was a deadly silence in his black eyes.
Almost without thinking, Xing Conglian guessed the identity of the person who came.
He then looked at Lin Chen, Lin Chen was stunned for a few seconds, then he woke up, moved his eyes slowly towards the door, and said, "Hello, Dong Chen."
Now the situation becomes more interesting.
Perhaps the boss of the Chen family came here after hearing the news that his most important subordinate was detained, or perhaps he was just waiting nearby for Lin Chen to be handcuffed and pressed into a police car. In short, it is very strange that Chen The current head of the family also appeared in this conference room where many dramatic scenes have taken place.
What an interesting coincidence, Xing Conglian thought about it, and saw the head of the Chen family walk into the room step by step, approaching Lin Chen with a pressing aura, and then said, "Long time no see, murderer."
In his words, there is the arrogance that is unique to paranoia, and in the address, there is also an extremely suppressed hatred.
Hearing that title, Xing Conglian looked at Lin Chen subconsciously, he saw Lin Chen took a step back, leaned on the long table, and then stood firm, as if he didn't care about it: "Are you a fool, to frame up for slander? If I do this kind of thing, your Chen family's business will be finished if you accidentally do it."
Different from the rare anger when he questioned Chen usually, at this moment, Lin Chen has completely calmed down. He said calmly, with the same seriousness as always in his tone, even if he was cursing, he was terribly serious.
"Even if my Chen family sells drugs, does this have anything to do with you, Lin Chen?" The big boss of the Chen family asked in a very slow tone.
At this moment, he and Lin Chen were already very close, staring at Lin Chen viciously and affectionately with the eyes as if those beasts were about to bite their prey.
Xing Conglian felt that he should stand up, but in an instant, he saw a beam of eyes that Lin Chen cast at him. The eyes were bright and cold, like the kind of steel tempered to the extreme. I understood the meaning in Lin Chen's eyes, meaning, it doesn't matter, I'll just come.
The sun was shining outside the window, and Xing Conglian wanted to laugh. He suddenly realized that the feeling of fighting side by side was better than protecting the other.
"So, is your Chen family selling drugs?" Lin Chen asked rhetorically.
His question made the sinister head of the house suddenly unable to answer.
Like a frequent visitor who doesn't play cards according to the rules, Lin Chen asked again, "Not only did you instruct your subordinates to frame us, but you also led the Chen family to sell drugs, right?"
Lin Chen is really good at making people speechless.
It seems that all the momentum accumulated by the Chen family boss has been removed, he can only grit his teeth and say word by word: "What do you want me to do, now that you have a protective umbrella, it is difficult for me to touch you. , do you want me to cut your throat with a knife?"
"Killing is killing." Lin Chen said.
This is a declarative sentence, but it's more like a confession, kill for life, I'm still alive, so I'm not a murderer.
"Why do you still have a face to appear in Yongchuan, why do you have to appear under my nose again!" The head of the Chen family was finally irritated by this sentence, he reached out and grabbed Lin Chen's collar and pulled the person in front of him .
"Because I'm investigating cases at Yongchuan University."
It was a calm statement again, and there was even a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
In terms of how to make people angry, Lin Chen is also an expert among experts.
The head of the Chen family slammed him away, pointed at the door, and sneered: "My school doesn't need you at all, go back to your own place, and now, immediately, get out of here for me!"
After he said this, the conference room fell silent again.
However, the reason for the silence was not because of the crazy and willful words of the head of the Chen family.
And because the old man who had been sitting in the corner and only said one sentence from beginning to end, opened his mouth and said the second sentence.
He said, "Huh?"
Until this time, the head of the Chen family, who had been angry and suppressed, finally saw the old man sitting in the most inconspicuous corner.
The old man's eyes were half-open, as if he had just woken up from a nap in the afternoon. Before Chen Zhengxue could react, he stood up from the chair and his tone was extremely calm: "Zhengxue, businessmen like us, businessmen No matter how big it is, we must abide by the law, and the police are investigating the case, so we must obey the arrangements.”
The head of the Chen family has not been called by his first name for a long time. Even if the old man's voice is warm, the meaning revealed in his words is deeply terrifying.
"It turned out to be Guanshi Xing." Chen Zhengxue withdrew his hand and quickly calmed down. He asked, "What do you mean, do you speak for the Xing family?"
Based on Chen Zhengxue's understanding of the Xing family, although this family has deep roots, it is the most lawful and neutral businessman, and will never show an obvious attitude on any disputes. You can sit down and keep your mouth shut.
As he expected, the old man shook his head, got up and walked towards the door, as if to leave this place of right and wrong.
But when the old man walked to the door, he saw the old man turn his head, looked at him, and said in a nonchalant tone: "Actually, it's not a statement, the old man just heard you say that Yongchuan University is something of your family. It's just a bit of an accident..." The old man paused, his eyes were distant, looking at the vast campus outside the window, as if recalling something: "After all, this is a university. Although we hold shares in the school, it does not belong to any family here. It belongs to all the past, present and future teachers and students of Yongchuan, this is a good thing that our families said when we divided the equity in the early years."
Just as Chen Zhengxue was about to speak, the old man changed his words, and the arrogance in his words was evident in his words: "If you have to say who owns Yongchuan University, you can only say that this university was built with money from my ancestors a hundred years ago. Yes, my master has injected capital ten times, but in the end, the main shares of Yongchuan University can only be owned by my master."
As the old man spoke, he leaned slightly outside the window, as if he was saluting the void. After he finished speaking, he took his subordinates and left the room.
The face of the head of the Chen family was as ugly as a gray wall with alopecia areata.
In the corner, because of the old man's words, Xing Conglian wanted to smoke a cigarette for no reason, but this thought was only fleeting, and he didn't have time to miss and think about the current situation. The educated head of the Chen family said a little helplessly: "Can I think that you admitted in the conversation just now that you have already admitted that you instructed your subordinates to frame us?"
"Oh, what do you think you can do to me?"
"Oh... it's nothing." Xing Conglian rubbed his nose, just at this moment, Vice Captain Jiang was pushing the door to enter, Xing Conglian's eyes lit up, he said with a smile, "Captain Jiang, I want to trouble you again, There are two behind-the-scenes agents here who want to go to the police station for tea."
Jiang Chao had an expression like what the hell did I miss, he waved his hand depressedly, and the police officer from the second station outside the door entered the room again, and took the two people in the room who seemed to be reluctant to leave Chen surnamed, Please go out.
As the door of the conference room closed again, Xing Conglian no longer had any relaxed smile on his face.
As if in a hurry, he looked at the serious crime team leader who had been watching the play, and said quickly: "Okay, everyone is gone, let's talk, what's going on."
