It was on the tip of Gu Yusheng’s tongue, but he did not say it out loud. He suddenly turned to Xiaowang and nodded at him to let him know he remembered it.
“Master Gu, didn’t you suspect someone was messing with Secretary Qin on purpose behind her back? I asked my people to do an investigation on those taken to the police station and any of their contacts. Turns out, the family of one of them paid his bail. I had my people watch him after he got out. He acted normally at the beginning, but soon he had started hanging out with unemployed people and going to blubs and drinking every day. This afternoon, my people told me they saw him with Bro Ling at the club. Bro Li was nice to him, and he even passed a cigarette to him and gave him a bottle of wine.”
Bro Li?
Gu Yusheng had never hung out with anyone in that world, but he’d heard of this name. He was famous in his world, but he had always lived in the shadows.
After what happened to Qin Zhi’ai, Xiaowang had already done an investigation on these people and found out they were from normal families. They were just no-name gangsters.
They should have shown their respect to Bro Li when they had met with him, not the other way around. How could Bro Sheng be so nice to him?
Gu Yusheng did not say anything, but Xiaowang could guess what was on Gu Yusheng’s mind based on his frowns. Xiaowang continued, “Bro Li, in such a high position, treated a nobody gangster particularly well, meaning that gangster must have done something extremely risky for him.”
“The only big thing that gangster did was kidnap Secretary Qin. Master Gu, I think it was Bro Li who did this to Secretary Qin, not those gangsters. There was no connection between Secretary Qin and Bro Li. Secretary Qin did nothing to Bro Li to cause him to take revenge on her. There was no reason for Bro Li to do anything to Secretary Qin.
“Someone must have paid a lot of money to Bro Li to get him to do it. I checked the bank transactions on Bro Li’s account, and a large amount of money was transferred into Bro Li’s account a few days before Secretary Qin was kidnapped. The money, however, was transferred by a seemingly regular people in S city.
Xiaowang hesitated, looking as though he did not want to continue talking.
Gu Yusheng frowned harder and looked up at Xiaowang to signal him to continue.
Xiaowang pressed his lips hard and took a deep breath before he told Gu Yusheng the more shocking information. “‘Regular people’ would not have this much money. Logically, it didn’t make sense, so I continued investigating all his relatives, and I found a familiar name, Zhou Jing.”
“Oh, but Master Gu, to be more accurate, her name is actually Zhou Caixia. She’s from S city, and that regular person from S city is her long-distance relative. Zhou Caixiao changed her name to Zhou Jing when she moved to Beijing.”
After pausing for a second, Xiaowang told Gu Yusheng everything. “Master Gu, you know Zhou Jing is Miss Liang’s agent. I learned by chance that she went to the same high school with Bro Li.”
