After Chen Qizhao finished eating, he received a call from Xiao Zhou. He would ask Zhang Yazhi about the aromatherapy situation for further confirmation, and also get some clues from Chen Shiming.
Although Zhang Yazhi was not told about the aromatherapy incident at the beginning, Chen Shiming had already considered some of the situation and investigated the details of the aromatherapy shop... It is unlikely that he wanted to get information from Zhang Yazhi.
"Mr. Chen also said that this store has been giving back to customers and contacting customers for a long time." Xiao Zhou continued: "But it's too long, and it's unlikely that you want to get information through your wife."
"I see." Chen Qizhao also has psychological expectations. Even if he asks about other details from Zhang Yazhi, it is only narrowing down the scope, but the suspicion cannot be completely ruled out. In case the other party is using Zhang Yazhi's best friend, it is possible that he has no contact with Zhang Yazhi. "You give me the list."
Xiao Zhou said to send it immediately, and soon sent the list to Chen Qizhao's mobile phone.
Shen Yuhuai asked, "Finished?"
"Well." Chen Qizhao paused slightly, "As for the aromatherapy shop, my brother has a list, and I asked Xiao Zhou to send it to me."
Shen Yuhuai raised his eyes slightly to look at the school road with scattered pedestrians, "Just finished eating, why don't you take a walk to digest your food?"
"Okay." Chen Qizhao put the phone in his pocket.
The campus of S University is very wide. Chen Qizhao came to the school for so long, in fact, the whole school has not been finished.
There were only a handful of walks after dinner, and Shen Yuhuai followed him several times. The two walked side by side, and could see that there were still people or couples walking on the school road. Chen Qizhao's eyes were slightly sideways, and he stopped for a second on the passing couple, and swept them together. hand.
Shen Yuhuai: "Didn't you usually go out with Yan Kailin?"
"No." Chen Qizhao: "He usually has something to do at night."
Shen Yuhuai: "I found that you don't talk much lately."
"Will it be?" Chen Qizhao.
"It's just intuition." Shen Yuhuai turned his head slightly to look at him, "If you have any questions, you can tell me."
The eyes of the other party were very dark, and they seemed to be inked at night, just like in the video.
Chen Qizhao and Shen Yuhuai looked at each other, pretending to be calm and avoiding their eyes, "Sometimes intuition is not accurate."
Walking near the playground, the originally quiet road became lively.
Students on bicycles passed quickly between the two, creating a small gust of wind.
Chen Qizhao's eyes turned slightly, as if he noticed something.
At this time, he was suddenly moved to the side and accidentally bumped into Shen Yuhuai.
Shen Yuhuai grabbed Chen Qizhao's arm and led the person to lean to the side, the feeling of the clothes under his palm.
As if touching the bones of the elbow joint, he inadvertently frowned, released it quickly, and explained, "Let's walk next to each other, there are many people riding bicycles here."
The strength on his arm was relieved, and Shen Yuhuai let go of him.
Chen Qizhao glanced slightly and took a step closer to Shen Yuhuai, "Oh."
The playground was very lively, and the boys playing basketball shuttled through the court.
Chen Qizhao raised his eyes slightly and noticed a road reflector standing beside the school road. Under the light of the street lights in the distance, he could faintly see a person following them not far behind.
The man was dressed in all black, not so easy to see at night, but did not act like a student.
"What's wrong?" Shen Yuhuai asked.
"I'll tie my shoelaces." Chen Qizhao squatted down. When tying his shoelaces, he paid attention to the surroundings. The people who had followed them disappeared and did not pass by them. He stood up, "Okay."
Shen Yuhuai looked at him and didn't speak, and didn't reveal the slight movement of the other party's just tore off the shoelaces and tie them again.
Soon, Chen Qizhao got up.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the resting stone chair by the playground, Shen Yuhuai's cell phone rang, and when he saw the phone number displayed on the screen of the cell phone, he paused for a while: "I'll take a call."
Chen Qizhao nodded and pointed to the vending machine far away from the playground, "Then I'll go buy some water."
Shen Yuhuai nodded. Yu Guang swept the position of the vending machine, and then said to the person on the other end of the phone: "Well, I'm here, I'm not busy, you can say it directly."
There are many people on the playground, and the noisy voices cover up some small sounds.
A man in black stood next to a roadside sculpture, his eyes stopped on Shen Yuhuai and Chen Qizhao, when he saw Chen Qizhao walking away from Shen Yuhuai, he was about to take a picture of Shen Yuhuai when he suddenly saw the man answering the phone His gaze swept toward him.
The man in black was startled and hurriedly shrank behind the sculpture.
He had no choice but to give up taking pictures and turned around to catch up with Chen Qizhao.
This man was not his target, he was tasked with photographing another man.
He pretended to be a student and mixed in with the pedestrians walking, step by step to the side of the vending machine, but when he walked near the vending machine, he didn't see Chen Qizhao.
"Where's the person?" The man in black panicked. He looked around, but didn't see Chen Qizhao.
He walked around the vending machine and looked at the crowd in the playground, "Impossible, I wasn't here just now..."
Before the man in black said anything, a huge force suddenly came from behind him.
Someone quickly clamped his wrist, pushed back his arm and directly slammed him into a tree somewhere on the shady side. The sudden pain made him groan, and the camera in his hand dangled and hung on the side of his neck. .
The man in black was stunned.
What did he realize? Just as he was about to struggle, he suddenly heard a cool voice behind him, "Do you still want to move?"
When the pain hit, the man didn't dare to cry out for help, and begged for mercy: "Don't move, don't move, it hurts, let go."
Then his wrist dislocated.
The huge force behind him was relieved, and the man squatted on the ground holding his dislocated wrist, his eyes black from the pain.
And a cold hand pulled the camera away from his neck, and also squatted in front of him, pressing the button of the camera to check the photos inside.
"Follow me? Voyeur?" Chen Qizhao laughed, his eyes fell on his other hand, "Is this a lot?"
The man hid his hand in his arms and said, "No."
Chen Qizhao lowered his eyes slightly and scanned the photos inside, all of them were photos of him and Shen Yuhuai.
"It's a good shot." His eyes stopped, he didn't delete the photo, but asked, "Where is the memory card?"
The man did not speak.
The boy in front of him seemed to be talking to him normally, but there was an indescribable sense of oppression.
Chen Qizhao's eyes stopped on him.
The man hurriedly said: "The port on the left, click it and it will pop up."
Chen Qizhao listened to him, took out the camera's memory card, and then threw the camera back into the man's arms, "I have a bad temper."
"What?" The man was at a loss.
"But I'm in a good mood today." Chen Qizhao patted him on the face, and his eyes stopped on his arm, "See you next time, it's more than that simple."
The man shrank back. The employer told him to follow a student. How could he know that it was such a student, and he would dismiss him at every turn! ? Fortunately, the other party just thought he was a voyeur, and it was okay to lose a memory card. He still had other cards and could explain to his employer.
He looked at the boy in front of him, took out his memory card, and walked leisurely to the vending machine, as if hesitating about what drink to buy, and finally banged twice.
The man just wanted to move, but when he saw the boy's gaze swept over, he sat back again, not daring to move.
The boy took two cans of Coke from the vending machine, looked away, and walked to the playground as if nothing had happened.
Chen Qizhao held two cans of Coke in one hand, and the memory card that had just slipped away from the man in the other.
Hire someone to follow, and according to this behavior, most of the visitors are bad. At this time, someone will be sent to follow him. It doesn't seem like he has nothing to do with other people. It is very likely that Lin Shizhong suspects him, so he will send someone to follow him. He had also noticed someone being tempted before, but the previous kind of temptation only confirmed something with two days and left soon.
But the man he followed today, and the weirdness he often noticed during this time, followed him for no less than five days.
Chen Qizhao didn't mind continuing to play the role of a playboy in front of Lin Shizhong, but if he pretended to be too much, it would also cause the other side's vigilance. Such a clumsy stalking could be either stalking or temptation. You can beat but not too much, otherwise you will answer. Lin Shizhong's intention.
But this incident can also determine a problem, Lin Shizhong is eyeing him...
Just staring at him
Chen Qizhao smiled silently, considering the situation of the old fox, it is estimated that there is more.
He stuffed the memory card into his pocket and had other plans in his eyes.
When he got to the playground, Chen Qizhao saw Shen Yuhuai still on the phone from a distance.
The man sat on the stone chair by the roadside, his long legs bent slightly, as if watching other people playing basketball off the court. He looked down at the cola in his hand, and a cold touch came from his palm. He walked to Shen Yuhuai's side and sat down, "Brother Huai, here's a cola."
Shen Yuhuai was still listening to the phone, and when he heard the words, he put his hand to the side, and his wide palm covered Chen Qizhao's fingers holding the cola.
Chen Qizhao paused and felt the warmth covering his fingers, which was completely different from the coldness under his fingers.
His eyes stopped, staring at the beautiful hand and the increasingly hot touch at the contact.
Chen Qizhao noticed that his heart was beating faster.
I don't know how long it took.
Maybe two seconds, maybe ten seconds.
"Okay, I see." Shen Yuhuai's hand moved away from Chen Qizhao's fingers, then he grabbed the can of Coke and took the Coke away from Chen Qizhao's hand, "Okay, talk back."
It was as if the other person's hand was covering his finger just now, which was just an ordinary and unexpected move.
"So long?" Shen Yuhuai asked.
Chen Qizhao replied: "There is something wrong with the vending machine over there. I went to the one far away to buy it."
He added: "I didn't pay attention when I bought it. I don't know if Brother Huai likes Coke or not."
Shen Yuhuai opened the cola, and the mouth of the can hissed, and he said, "It's okay, the cola is not bad."
Chen Qizhao also opened the can, raised his head and took a few sips, and suddenly realized something.
He turned his head and noticed that Shen Yuhuai was looking at him.
"What's wrong?" Chen Qizhao asked.
Shen Yuhuai's eyes stayed on Chen Qizhao's slightly messy hair for a moment, then his eyes suddenly went down, and he said, "It's dripping on the clothes, Coke."
Chen Qizhao lowered his eyes, but he was wearing dark clothes, and he couldn't see any traces in the night, "I didn't pay attention."
The two sat on the side of the playground for about ten minutes, until it was a little late, and Shen Yuhuai proposed to leave.
Chen Qizhao and Shen Yuhuai returned to the dormitory after parting, only to notice that the charging treasure and charging cable that Shen Yuhuai lent him were still in his backpack, he took a photo and sent it to Shen Yuhuai.
[Forgot to take something. 】
In the security room of S large, Shen Yuhuai's eyes stopped at the pale man in black covering his hands. The security guard on the other side checked the memory card on the man's body and said, "Student, thanks to you calling to report, we have just found a few memory cards from this man, all of which are of a student. This situation is really true. Too bad."
"It's okay." Shen Yuhuai said: "He was secretly photographing my friend, and he noticed something wrong with him when he was on the playground. He has been with us for a long time."
The security guard said, "Are you going to call the police on this matter?"
He handed the memory card to Shen Yuhuai, "This is your friend. I don't know what quirks this person has. He even secretly took pictures of other boys. The photos will be handled by you. You will ask your friends to be careful when they go out."
Shen Yuhuai took the memory card and paused for a moment on the man, "I'll let him pay attention."
He saw the message popped up on the phone, and he flicked his finger to reply—
[It's okay, next time. 】
-*
In the bedroom, Chen Qizhao held the power bank in his hand, and his eyes stayed on his fingertips, and a certain tactile feeling still lingered. He wrapped the charging cable around the power bank and put the power bank in the drawer.
He exported all the dozens of photos in the memory card reading data of Shunlai.
Some of them were in the library with Shen Yuhuai, some were in the cafeteria, and some were walking on the road. However, the shooting angles are relatively biased. It can be seen that this person did not dare to get too close when taking pictures, especially the photos in the library, where you can only see the figure from a distance.
Chen Qizhao frowned and picked through a bunch of photos, and finally selected a few high-definition photos to export.
He looked at Shen Yuhuai in the photo for a while, and he casually dropped the other photos into the pen holder on the desktop along with the memory card.
To distract his attention, he opened the mailbox.
Tonight's mailbox is much richer, except for the aromatherapy shop customer list sent by Xiao Zhou... The other thing is that the things he has been investigating have finally come to fruition. In his last life, he brought down Lin Shizhong mainly because of Lin Shizhong's unclean accounts and some illegal transactions he engaged in. After his rebirth in this life, he has been collecting information about Lin Shizhong from these perspectives. Received suspicious points on the accounts of Lin Shizhong's two companies.
These suspected points involve some illegal transactions in medicine. Although releasing them can severely damage the Lin Group, it may not be able to wipe out Lin Shizhong in one go. So Chen Qizhao has been investigating, and this investigation has also found something deeper.
He found that some of Lin's companies overlapped with their family's business.
As for these overlapping parts, some are the part that Jiang Yuze is responsible for, and some are that others are responsible for. Logically speaking, the Lin family has always been a medical group, and there should be relatively few overlapping parts with the Chen family, but following this line of inspection, he unexpectedly found that these overlapping parts existed for a very long time... even Possibly extending to 30 years ago.
The Chen family and the Lin family are family friends, which has existed since their parents.
In this generation, Chen Jianhong and Lin Shizhong are still young friends.
Thirty years ago, the Chen family did not grow as it is now, and neither did the Lin family.
And 30 years ago, the main power of the Chen family was still his grandfather, not his father Chen Jianhong.
"30 years ago..." Chen Qizhao was slightly puzzled, and continued to read down the document, and suddenly found that Lin's early years had participated in the competition for a piece of land in the Southern District, but at present Lin's main business never involved the Southern District.
On the surface, Lin's business avoided the southern area, but the part shown in the data was in the southern area.
However, part of the main business of the Chen family is in the southern district.
Looking at a piece of information, there are undoubtedly two points.
The first point is that the business of the Chen family and the Lin family overlapped many years ago. This was something that was not detected in the previous life, indicating that the entanglement between the Chen family and the Lin family took longer than Chen Qizhao originally expected.
The second point is that Lin Shizhong is likely to use the overlapping part of this part to benefit himself for a long time. In short, he will use the Chen family's business as a springboard to expand interests, markets and channels for a long time.
Chen Qizhao didn't go into the reasons why Lin Shizhong targeted their family in the past, but from the ending of his previous life, Lin Shizhong was undoubtedly the biggest beneficiary of Chen's bankruptcy, and his beneficiaries gathered many people, including Jiang Yuze, who had been working for him. All chickens and dogs ascended to the sky, and the background revealed is wider than what can be seen now.
Lin Shizhong has planned for many years and arranged so many people in the Chen family, not only to bankrupt their Chen family, but these people have also become pawns that he can drive at any time as a way for him to expand his business territory.
Simply kill two birds with one stone.
Chen Qizhao sat up a little, pulled the information back to the table, and sorted out the whole thing from the timeline.
It was ten years later that he killed Lin Shizhong in his last life. At that time, there were not so many clues for him to dig, and more clues were completely destroyed by Lin Shizhong. The only thing he could catch was that he noticed Lin Shizhong from Chen himself. , and then defeated Lin Shizhong's illegal accounts.
So he always had a doubt, since Lin Shizhong was going to bankrupt their family, why did he stay for so many years.
As an old fox who has been galloping in the mall for many years, and the size of the Lin Group later, it is undoubtedly not revealed that Lin Shizhong is an interestist.
According to the timeline, the overlapping places were sorted out quickly.
Chen Qizhao looked at the text from dense to sparse and noticed that this kind of business exchange has gradually decreased in recent years.
In recent years, Chen's has been in trouble, and the real estate has declined, and Chen's internal business is eager to expand and transform.
Regardless of Lin Shizhong's original motive for bringing down the Chen family, as far as this time issue is concerned, there is only one possibility... The reason why Lin Shizhong did not immediately bring down the Chen family is most likely because the Chen family is still profitable.
When it's profitable, keep the Gu, and use the Chen family as a springboard to expand the territory.
When it was unprofitable, the Chen family was an abandoned tool, and Lin Shizhong waved his hand and the former high-rise building collapsed in an instant.
Chen Qizhao looked at the documents in the computer, saved the rearranged information, and sent it directly to Chen Shiming.
Not long after the document was sent, Chen Shiming's phone called immediately.
It was late at night, and Chen Shiming's voice was a little tired. He asked, "Where did you get this information?"
"I checked." Chen Qizhao said: "You can check Chen's database as you like. It's easier for you to check what happened 30 years ago. It's better to check whether Lin Shizhong had any entanglements with our family before."
In the study, Chen Shiming stared at the file just opened on the screen, the dense text was shocking.
He listened to Chen Qizhao's relaxed expression on the other side of the phone, his eyes sank slightly: "You asked Xiao Zhou to ask me something, and today Mom asked after she came back. As we expected before, Mom doesn't remember who recommended her to go to this store. , I just said that there were several friends who recommended it at the time, the service in the store was good, and she learned from the driver that Dad liked the aromatherapy in this store, so she bought it there for a long time."
"Then we can only start from the customer. Have you shown the list to Mom?" Chen Qizhao asked.
Chen Shiming said: "Look, I have selected some people, you can take a look at the vx, I will send it to you."
Chen Qizhao clicked on the document he had just received and saw a more detailed document than the list sent by Xiao Zhou earlier. He actually didn't know much about Zhang Yazhi's friends, but Chen Shiming's document marked the simple information of these people, making it easier for him to judge their identities.
Quickly scanning the names inside, Chen Qizhao stopped when he saw a name called Sun Rooning.
He glanced at the information behind him and hesitated: "Sun Rooning, Chen Jianting's wife? Does your mother have a good relationship with her?"
Chen Jianting, also known as Chen Qizhao's third uncle.
Sun Rooning is his third aunt.
It's just that their family doesn't communicate very much with Uncle Chen's family, and they are superficial relatives who walk around the door. He has never heard Zhang Yazhi mention Aunt Chen.
"It's just normal, we meet at parties occasionally." Chen Shiming explained: "She is also a long-term customer of that aromatherapy shop. Mom said that she would occasionally meet her in the shop, so I didn't remove her from the list. . You suspect her?"
"I doubt anyone." Chen Qizhao's eyes stopped for a moment on Sun Rooning's profile, and then he continued to read the following profile, "If it's because of Dad that Mom bought the aromatherapy shop for a long time, what about the others? I am suspicious of the few people on this list who have been buying in aromatherapy shops for a long time."
Chen Shiming didn't speak.
"Are you saying that they are really buying things, or are they staring at Mom to buy something... or observing Mom's actions in the aromatherapy shop?" Chen Qizhao closed the file after finishing speaking.
"I'll let Xiao Xu follow this line to investigate this matter." Chen Shiming hesitated for a while, looking at the contents of the document, "You sent this document to me, what are your plans?"
"Literal plan." Chen Qizhao clicked the mouse with his finger, and another document appeared in front of him, which he had collected in his two lifetimes, part of the vicious competition method of Lin's business expansion in these years, " I like tit for tat."
Since Lin Shizhong likes to plan step by step.
Then he let Lin Shizhong realize Ling Chi's feeling step by step.
Chen Shiming disagreed: "This matter involves too much, it's too dangerous for you to investigate alone..."
"Chen Shiming, let me ask you a question." Chen Qizhao interrupted Chen Shiming suddenly, "If you want to check someone, how would you check?"
Chen Shiming frowned, but still said: "Check this person's past experience, interpersonal relationships involved, daily performance, etc. It is easy to check a person, but it is also difficult. If the person has a wide range of relationships, it will involve multiple levels. "
After he finished speaking, he found the problem keenly: "What do you mean by asking this? Who do you want to check? ... Or is someone checking you?"
"Are you interested in something?" Chen Qizhao turned his eyes slightly, and looked at the computer screen with a deep meaning, "Let's play the game of catching ghosts and catch some uncontrollable ghosts..."
Like in a company.
