Chapter 4061 - 4080: Investigation, A Little Taste of Awesome Skill
"Where is he now?"
"At the Inspection Bureau prison."
Lin Chen asked, "Did he volunteer to stay there?"
Zhang Hanying replied, "Yes, but once he entered the prison, even if he wanted to leave, he couldn’t."
Lin Chen frowned, "He’s at the Seventh Level Peak and can perform Wormhole Shift. Is there a special device in the prison?"
Zhang Hanying smiled wryly, "The Inspection Bureau has a whole set of methods to deal with warriors. Once they catch someone, they immediately seal the Elixir Field Furnace and put shackles on the neck."
Lin Chen had worn those things before and knew that the device was made of special material, highly technological, able to subdue strong warriors silently.
"Does it explode?"
Zhang Hanying answered, "There are several kinds of shackles; some can explode, release ultra-high voltage to stun people, and the program inside can be set to explode automatically if deviating from a certain position. Even if no one manages you, you’d be afraid to leave."
Lin Chen was surprised at the multiple functions of this thing!
Take it as a warning!
Having worn it once before, he swore never to wear it again in his life!
If someone tries to make him wear it, he would run away, no matter if it means becoming a fugitive from the Federation, with his team’s abilities, hiding would be easy.
"What can I do?"
Zhang Hanying pleaded, "Please investigate the truth and clear Zhong Jiu’s name. If he can’t clear his name, he might spend many years in prison, losing his freedom and future."
Lin Chen hesitated slightly, "But that person has been dead for a long time, even Soul-searching technique won’t work..."
Zhang Hanying earnestly said, "I know you have various divine methods; I’m out of options on this matter and request your help alone."
"I know this is difficult, as long as you try your best, then even if no results are found, it still repays Zhong Jiu’s favor, given he really ends up in prison, he wouldn’t need your help any longer anyway."
Lin Chen thought for a moment, "Alright, I’ll give it a try, but don’t guarantee any results."
"Okay, Thank you."
Zhang Hanying replied with gratitude, "I’ve already organized the relevant information on the He Family and Wang Family, will send it to you soon for reference."
"Okay!"
After the phone call, Lin Chen shrugged his shoulders, "Zhang Zhongjiu, the unlucky ghost, has been framed and is now caught in the Inspection Bureau prison."
Nalan Wushuang and the others listened to Lin Chen explain the situation and were quite surprised.
"Isn’t he a Small Team Captain at the Inspection Bureau himself? How could he be caught by his own people?"
"Where will you start investigating?"
"He was framed; another Inspection Bureau team arrived so timely, there might be something fishy about this, right?"
While Lin Chen was on the phone earlier, he had already been thinking.
"The team from the Inspection Bureau that caught him, I personally believe has a low probability of wrongdoing, given collaborating with outsiders for framing would be too blatant."
"Of course, still need to check, what if they’re that bold?"
Nalan Wushuang asked, "How will you investigate?"
Lin Chen thought, "First check interpersonal relationships from all sides, devise a plan, considering the involvement of two large families and the Inspection Bureau, we can’t act recklessly, since the aim is to clear his name, not end up making everyone a fugitive of the Federation."
"Alright!"
After receiving the information sent by Zhang Hanying, Lin Chen checked over it carefully.
If this matter is orchestrated by the He Family or Wang Family, or even both families together, then there are not many suspects.
The He Family head, He Yuanhang.
The Wang Family’s Second Young Master, Wang Yishan.
Lin Chen checked the information on the Inspection Bureau online, called Zhang Hanying to confirm some details.
If there’s anyone involved in the plan from the Inspection Bureau side, then the Third Squad Team leader, Zheng Quan, must be involved, and the Inspection Bureau director might be aware.
Just that Huang Family’s case hasn’t been resolved, yet the Inspection Bureau director ordered Zhang Zhongjiu to solve the case within a time limit, or else shoulder the blame. The case isn’t finished, and they directly took down Zhang Zhongjiu, then who will investigate, who will take the blame for the director?
From this point, the possibility of the Inspection Bureau director being involved or the mastermind is low.
Engaging in violence is simple, but uncovering the truth is much tougher.
Lin Chen changed his approach; these people could accurately arrange everything, clearly well aware of Zhang Zhongjiu’s actions.
Then after telling Zhang Zhongjiu those things, whom did he disclose them to, or was he always being watched?
To avoid exposure, Lin Chen again commissioned Zhang Hanying to visit Zhang Zhongjiu at the prison.
According to Zhang Zhongjiu, after separating from Lin Chen, he directly returned to the team. Involving locating a suspect, he requested team member Liu Chengjin to help investigate.
After Liu Chengjin found the suspect’s whereabouts, Zhang Zhongjiu directly went to the suspect’s location.
Upon seeing Zhang Zhongjiu, the suspect reacted fearfully, Zhang Zhongjiu pressed him for the truth, he uttered some nonsense, then suddenly acted, Zhang Zhongjiu instinctively countered, trying to subdue him, unexpectedly the suspect sought death, rushed onto Zhang Zhongjiu’s Black Blade, dying instantly.
Liu Chengjin?
Lin Chen investigated Liu Chengjin further, a Seventh-level Warrior, joined the Inspection Bureau for many years.
Inspection Bureau people are indeed tough, even an ordinary agent is a Seventh-level Warrior.
Lin Chen deemed Liu Chengjin suspicious; otherwise Zhang Zhongjiu acted alone should’ve been discreet, how did he alarm another team?
The only answer, someone knew in advance, arranged everything.
According to the Third Squad Team leader Zheng Quan, he received a report claiming someone assaulted with force, and the opponent is powerful, so he brought a squad over, coincidentally, saw the suspect dead under Zhang Zhongjiu’s blade.
Understanding everything, Lin Chen began his actions.
First, investigate Liu Chengjin.
Liu Chengjin drove home after work, parked his hovercar in the garage, walked a few steps, suddenly saw a stunning woman running over in a panic from the side, clothes disheveled, looking back while running.
Encountered a thug?
Liu Chengjin instinctively stopped, the woman saw Liu Chengjin, showing joy on her face, and dashed towards him.
"Help, someone’s chasing me..."
Liu Chengjin stood in front of the woman, just as he steadied himself, an overwhelming pressure suddenly enveloped him, immobilizing him.
Liu Chengjin’s Furnace Energy erupted, shattered the invisible confinement around him, yet before he could draw the Black Blade, a delicate hand poked at the back of his head.
He hadn’t even reacted, immediate darkness before his eyes, passing out directly.
The charming woman smiled slightly, extended her hand, picked up the unconscious Liu Chengjin, and walked into the darkness ahead.
When Liu Chengjin woke up from unconsciousness, he found his Furnace sealed, hands and feet locked, eyes blindfolded.
"Liu Chengjin, what did you receive in return for betraying your Team leader Zhang Zhongjiu?"
