"Why?" Zhao Yu was puzzled. "Father-in-law, why do you think I'm not going? According to the rules, I have to follow Officer Li's orders, right?
"What the hell is going on?"
"What's going on? You're so smart. Can't you tell? " Miao Kun asked anxiously. "Someone is imitating the Lost Hand Case and the Devil Case in Korea. Isn't this obviously directed at you?"
"Directed at me? But … "Zhao Yu said." The victims of these two cases are citizens of our country who hold important positions. Obviously, someone is trying to undermine our cooperation with Korea. "
"You can't take any risks!" Miao Kun said. "There are many ways to undermine the cooperation. Why do you have to use a case that you've worked on before?
"Zhao, listen to me. This is definitely a trap. Someone is trying to lure you into it. They don't have the ability to do anything to us, so they went to Korea to set up a trap. Their purpose is to get revenge on us! "
"Father-in-law, this …" Zhao Yu said awkwardly. "Don't you think you're overthinking it? Who would seek revenge on me? The fake Xi Mengna?
"I heard from Ding Lan that Xi Wei's remaining forces have been completely suppressed by Tycoon Long Di. Is it possible that … she still hasn't given up on me?"
"That's hard to say," Miao Kun said. "We must be careful in this business. Not only can you not go to Korea, but you also have to increase the number of people in the next few days to ensure your safety!"
"But …" Zhao Yu asked, "How do you explain this to Li Jing?"
"Don't worry about it," Miao Kun replied. "I've already asked my superiors. You don't need to go anywhere. Just continue working on your case. Don't worry, she won't call you again!"
"But …" Zhao Yu was still a little confused.
"No buts," Miao Kun said solemnly. "I shouldn't have told you this, but in order to let you understand how dangerous this matter is, I'll tell you!
"Since the two cases in Korea, I've been trying to contact Li Bencheng, but …" Miao Kun said seriously. "I found out that Li Bencheng has disappeared!"
"What?" This time, Zhao Yu finally understood what his father-in-law meant and hurriedly asked, "Li Bencheng is missing?"
"Yes," Miao Kun nodded. "I've confirmed with the Koreans that Li Bencheng is indeed missing. Not only me, but the Koreans are also looking for him!
"Little Zhao, you should know that Xi Wei's death is related to everyone who participated in the Miracle Island Detective Salon, right?" Miao Kun said solemnly. "Li Bencheng is the most capable of all of us. If even he is missing, it means that the situation has become quite serious!
"So, no matter what, before confirming that Li Bencheng is safe, you must not step into these muddy waters! Understand? "
"Oh … Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded. "I got it!"
"Alright," Miao Kun said. "Be careful for the next few days. We're looking around for information to see if this incident was caused by the fake Xi Mengna."
"Then …" Zhao Yu quickly said, "You have to send more people to Miao Ying's side! If it's really for me, then everyone close to me will be in danger. "
"Do I need you to tell me that?" Miao Kun said. "Don't worry, I've sent the best people to protect your family and Miao Ying. You should focus on investigating the case!"
"Oh, that's good!" Zhao Yu said. "Then, you have to be careful. If it's really the fake Xi Mengna, then you should be his primary target!"
"Well, at least you have a conscience," Miao Kun said. "Don't worry about me! After learning my lesson in Morocco, I'm more careful than anyone else now!
"Alright, I'm hanging up …"
As soon as the phone was hung up, Zhao Yu suddenly felt a headache.
He pinched his temples hard and rubbed them. It seemed that there was something wrong with the two cases in Korea. My father-in-law's reminder was very timely. I have to be more careful!
But …
Zhao Yu frowned, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
To be honest, when Li Jing ordered him to put down the murder memoir and immediately go to Korea to carry out the task, he felt a little conflicted.
However, now that his father-in-law didn't want him to carry out the task, his heart felt a little empty. He always felt that something was wrong.
However, since he didn't have to go to Korea to take the risk, it was better to concentrate on solving the murder memoir first.
So, Zhao Yu immediately cheered up and went to the parking lot of the police station to meet Officer Wang and Zeng Ke.
Officer Wang drove them to a local restaurant for dinner. After eating in a hurry, the three of them drove straight to a high school in Yaoming.
It turned out that the person Zhao Yu wanted to meet was none other than Tu Qiang's ex-wife.
Tu Qiang's ex-wife's surname was Xie. In order to avoid disturbing Ms. Xie, Officer Wang communicated with her in advance. Instead of going directly to the school, the three of them chose to meet at a western restaurant near the school.
"What happened to him?" Ms. Xie was wearing glasses and looked like a standard teacher. Although she was old, she still looked very good. "I don't understand. Isn't he already in prison?"
"Don't get me wrong." Officer Wang often dealt with the parties involved, so this conversation was mainly led by him. "We are here to learn more about Tu Qiang's past, and we hope that you can cooperate with us."
"Oh …" Ms. Xie, after all, rarely dealt with police officers, so she immediately nodded and even showed a little nervousness.
In order to get to the point as soon as possible, Officer Wang asked a simple question. "We want to know why Tu Qiang is a well-known lawyer, and you are a high school teacher. You are already very rich, so why did he take bribes?"
"He likes to gamble," Ms. Xie replied without hesitation. "Sometimes, he doesn't even have enough money to spend. Sometimes, he doesn't even have enough money to spend in Yaoming, so he goes to Macau, Singapore, and Malaysia …"
In fact, Zhao Yu and the others already knew about this question, but in order to get Ms. Xie into the right frame of mind, they asked these basic questions first.
Ms. Xie shook her head and sighed. "His family was originally very rich. In the early years, he rarely lost money, but …" Ms. Xie shook her head and sighed. "Later, he lost more and more money, and the more he lost, the more he gambled.
"But, before his accident, we had already completed the divorce procedures. Our relationship had long been in name only. If I continued to live with him, I'm afraid that I wouldn't even be able to pay for my daughter's tuition!" Mrs. Xie said with resentment.
Zhao Yu knew that Tu Qiang's daughter was studying abroad, so her annual tuition was not a small amount.
"Originally, we had a good family," Ms. Xie said with emotion. "But, he seemed to be possessed. He said that he could see through people's minds and that he could guarantee to win money …"
"Oh?" Hearing this, Zhao Yu and the others' eyes lit up. Officer Wang quickly asked, "So, he likes to study people's minds?"
"Yes," Ms. Xie said. "For the sake of his work, he already knows a lot about psychology. So, he does have some skills in this area, but … Isn't that different from gambling?
"Even if he can see through people's minds, he can't prevent people from cheating. Don't you think so? "
Hearing this, Zhao Yu and the others nodded vigorously.
