Chen Shan sat in front of his computer and worked like a tiger, showing off his outstanding and superb computer skills.
Xu Bai and Su Meng stood behind Chen Shan and quietly looked at the screen that was filled with codes that looked very visually intimidating.
He didn’t understand, but he felt that it was impressive.
Xu Bai crossed his arms and narrowed his eyes.
When he went to the Night Rose nightclub last night, he realized that there were far more so-called transcendents than the four people he had chopped
up.
But…
When Xu Bai rushed over again, the people who were still at the scene were all ordinary people. None of the transcendents were left at the scene.
Clearly, these transcendents had all gone into hiding.
This was a hidden danger that had to be eliminated as soon as possible.
From the corner of his eye, Xu Bai glanced at Su Meng, who was standing beside him. She imitated him and crossed her arms like a supervisor.
Moreover, Xu Bai had thought about it. The only thing related to the mystery of his Main Mission was the case of the Night Rose nightclub.
Logically speaking, the Night Rose nightclub was related to the Great Desolate World. Then, there was a certain chance of finding clues about the two moons. Therefore, as soon as Xu Bai was discharged, he directly interrogated Liu Qiang.
Not only did he know that Liu Qiang deliberately stayed behind to take the blame, but he also knew that Liu Qiang might not be able to stay in the police station for long.
After all, according to the confessions of the victims, the beauty loan had been going on for a long time, but there was no movement from the Night Rose nightclub at all. It was obvious that they were fearless.
There must be more than just Xiao Jingnan behind the Night Rose nightclub. There must be others. If there were no accidents, the transcendents who disappeared in the Night Rose nightclub must have moved to another person.
Hence, Xu Bai wanted to interrogate Liu Qiang and see if he could get anything out of him.
Unfortunately, just as Liu Qiang was about to speak, Lawyer Zhang coincidentally pushed the door open and entered, completely interrupting what Liu Qiang wanted to say. However, Xu Bai was not angry.
On the contrary.
Xu Bai only wanted an answer. As for what the process was like, frankly, Xu Bai
did not care at all.
Unfortunately…
Liu Qiang could give him this answer, and so could Lawyer Zhang.
After all, Lawyer Zhang was not doing charity work. If he dared to come to the police station, it meant that he had received instructions or someone had spent money.
If nothing went wrong, he would be able to find the other backer behind the Night Rose nightclub.
Most importantly…
There was no way Xu Bai could find the murderer of Sun Qinya and the four brothers.
But he could muddy the waters!
When Xu Bai was in the hospital, he heard Su Meng mention that after the victims complained, he immediately turned his attention to the dark forces of the Night Rose nightclub.
In that case, wouldn’t it be the best of both worlds?
I’m so smart!
Xu Bai thought to himself and reviewed his entire plan. Then, he could not help but silently praise himself in his heart.
Soon.
After a series of fierce operations, Chen Shan successfully hacked into the backend of the communication company and obtained the call records of Lawyer Zhang.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lawyer Zhang’s 24-hour call history was directly displayed on the computer screen.
Su Meng looked at the computer screen. It had been less than 24 hours, but there were hundreds of calls. She could not help but be stunned.
“That many?”
“It’s very normal. Zhang Hao is a famous lawyer in Feng City. He doesn’t lack clients at all.”
Chen Shan turned around and explained to Su Meng.
“Screen them and set the time for the inquiry…”
Xu Bai thought for a moment and looked at Chen Shan. “The search time is set to start at midnight last night. Before half an hour, remove the call records for less than a minute.”
Chen Shan nodded and continued operating.
After a while…
The call logs on the computer screen that needed to be pulled down rapidly decreased. Then, it decreased to more than thirty numbers.
Su Meng looked at the numbers. “There are still so many of them.”
Chen Shan shrugged. “I can’t help it. He’s a barrister.”
Xu Bai’s gaze quickly swept across the 30 or so numbers on the computer screen. He did not speak.
The next second.
Xu Bail s eyes lit up. “From the bottom up, the twelfth number.”
Chen Shan looked at the big screen and quickly read the twelfth number Xu Bai mentioned. “The call time is 2:15 PM. The call will last for three minutes and four seconds.
Xu Bai looked at Su Meng. “The bureau called to tell you when those women are willing to testify?”
Su Meng took out her phone from her pocket and was slightly stunned. She looked up at Xu Bai. “Master, it’s ten past two.”
Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.
At 2:10 p.m., the bureau did the victim’s job. Several victims expressed their willingness to testify. Five minutes later, this call was made to Lawyer Zhang’s phone.
This was the rhythm of a mole.
And…
“Chen Shan.”
“Yeah.”
“Pull up the file on the last call I asked you to pull.”
“…Alright.”
Chen Shan nodded.
Su Meng, who was at the side, was confused. She looked at Xu Bai. “Master, the last call? Which last call?”
Xu Bai glanced at Chen Shan, who was looking for information, and then at Su Meng.
“Didn’t someone complain about me two months ago?”
“Yeah. ”
Su Meng nodded. “Master, you said that your gun was taken away. You only got it back a few days ago.”
Xu Bai nodded. “At that time, that beast’s defense lawyer was also Lawyer Zhang Hao.”
Su Meng’s jaw dropped.
Xu Bai immediately said, “At that time, I thought about it. After I caught that beast, I returned to the police station. That beast didn’t even have the chance to make a call. However, just as I was about to interrogate that beast, Lawyer Zhang appeared, just like today.”
Last time, Lawyer Zhang appeared when he broke through the suspect’s psychological defense and was about to confess.
It was the same this time.
At that time, Xu Bai had an immature suspicion. After all, he liked to watch movies, especially suspense-solving cases.
so…
At that time, Xu Bai asked Chen Shan to check Lawyer Zhang’s phone records for him. However, there was no suspicious number at that time.
This time?
I think so.
“F*ck!”
Chen Shan cursed and turned to look at Xu Bai. “The two numbers are the same.”
Xu Bai came back to his senses and looked at the computer screen.
The first thing he saw was…
Two documents and the same number appeared in Xu Bai’s eyes at different times.
Seeing this, Su Meng couldn’t help but widen her eyes. She opened her mouth and looked at Xu Bai. “Master, you mean..
Xu Bai nodded and glanced at Su Meng’s shoulder. He looked at An Ya, who was walking over from not far away, and narrowed his hands. “There’s a traitor among us!”
