Chen Xing took out his mobile phone and saw that it was Qin Minghua. Chen Xing quickly picked up the phone. Qin Minghua's call was most likely related to the case.
Leader, we just received a notice from the Beiqing Provincial Department that Li Baoguan's family was dead. Their bodies were found at the seaside of Changhe County, Jianghai Province. Qin Minghua said on the phone.
A family of three died? Chen Xing was shocked. He couldn't believe it. Was it a vendetta? Otherwise, how could a family of three die?
Well, they're all dead. The identity documents of the three are still there. Their identities are verified. Qin Minghua nodded.
What's the cause of death? Chen Xing couldn't wait to ask.
The cause of death hasn't been said. It should still be under investigation. If there are any results, they will definitely inform us. Qin Minghua shook his head. When he thought about what he knew, he couldn't help but add, "Team Leader, there are often local smugglers along the coast of Long River County. Many people who want to smuggle themselves out of the country choose that area."
Do you mean that the cause of their death may be related to smuggling? " Chen Xing frowned.
I wasn't sure about that. Logically speaking, if they wanted to sneak out of the country, they should have contacted the local smugglers. As long as the price was negotiated, everything else wouldn't be a big problem. I didn't know how they died. It was really puzzling.
Listening to Qin Minghua's words, Chen Xing slowly fell silent. No matter how they died, everyone knew that Li Baoguan's family had disappeared. They must have run away. However, it had only been a few days and the entire family had died. This news was truly shocking.
After a moment of silence, Chen Xing told Qin Minghua to report to him in time if there was any news. Chen Xing immediately hung up the phone and turned to look at Zheng Jing. At this time, Zheng Jing had also finished the phone call. Seeing Chen Xing looking at her, she said, "Chen Xing, I've made an appointment for you. My friend is free now. Today is her day off, so I asked her to come out."
You didn't tell her about us, did you? Chen Xing smiled.
"No, I'm afraid that if I tell her on the phone, she won't dare to come out. It's better to talk about it in person." Zheng Jing said.
Chen Xing nodded. Zheng Jing was thoughtful. Thinking of the phone call just now, Chen Xing smiled bitterly and glanced at Zheng Jing. "Zheng Jing, I have something to tell you. I'm not sure if it's good or bad news for you."
What is it? When Zheng Jing heard that it was related to her, she couldn't help but feel nervous.
There was news of Li Baoguan's family, but they were all dead.
All dead?
Zheng Jing's reaction was almost exactly the same as that of Chen Xing. However, she was not the only one who spoke this time. Jiang Haijun spoke almost at the same time as Zheng Jing. The two of them asked in unison.
Leader, are you sure? How could a few living people die just like that? Jiang Haijun said in surprise. Zheng Jing, who was beside him, also widened her eyes. Jiang Haijun's words also represented her doubt.
Yes, the body was found at the seaside of Changhe County, Jianghai Province.
Jianghai Province's Changhe County? Why did Li Baoguan and his family go there?
I heard that people often organize smuggling there. Maybe they wanted to smuggle abroad from there, but I don't know how they died. Chen Xing shrugged. Before the results of the case investigation came out, he couldn't give Zheng Jing any answer.
Dead. He didn't expect Li Baoguan's family to die like this. Zheng Jing smiled bitterly. At this time, she was not very happy. Although Li Baoguan and his son had harmed her husband and seized the property that originally belonged to them, Li Baoguan's son, Li Xiangda, had taken the initiative to come over and say that he wanted to reconcile and return the money to them. Zheng Jing was originally a little happy in her heart. Although she was still angry at Li Baoguan and his son, for a commoner like her, as long as her husband could come back and the money could be returned, it was better to avoid trouble. She did not want to really go against Li Baoguan and his son. Now that she heard such news, Zheng Jing smiled helplessly. Perhaps this was the will of the heavens. God deliberately helped her vent her anger, but for her family, this news was really not really good news.
What they brought on themselves was the hardest to bear. Chen Xing shook his head. If Li Baoguan's family didn't run away, even if they were punished by the law in the end, it was hard to say how many years they would be sentenced to. Maybe they could finally come out and enjoy their old age. Instead, they ended up dying in a foreign land.
You're right. What they brought on themselves is the hardest to bear. Zheng Jing smiled sarcastically. Li Baoguan's family really deserved it.
Thinking about her husband, Zheng Jing hurriedly said, "Chen Xing, you must remember my husband's matter.
Don't worry, I will do it today. I plan to make an appointment with the Deputy Secretary Liao of the Municipal Party Committee to have a face-to-face talk, so that he will pay more attention to it. " Chen Xing said.
"Okay, Chen Xing, thank you. Thank you so much." Zheng Jing's eyes were a little red and she said gratefully.
"Don't be so polite. If you still treat me like an outsider, then I won't be happy." Chen Xing smiled.
"Okay, then I won't say anymore." Zheng Jing smiled through her tears. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Only in times of trouble did she realize who her relatives, friends, and classmates were really reliable. Chen Xing, a classmate of hers who she did not have many close relationships with in the university, was so loyal to her at this time. Zheng Jing felt grateful from the bottom of her heart.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Let's hurry to the cafe. I have an appointment with my friend there. It's just next to her house. Let's hurry up so that she doesn't have to wait for too long." Zheng Jing looked at the time and said.
"Then let's go. We have a favor to ask of her. If we keep her waiting for too long, it will be a little inappropriate." Chen Xing said to Jiang Haijun with a smile.
The two of them got into Zheng Jing's car. Zheng Jing, who was responsible for driving, returned to the main road. After about ten minutes of driving, the car stopped in front of a cafe along the street.
Zheng Jing got out of the car, gestured to Chen Xing and walked in. As soon as she entered the door, Zheng Jing saw her old friend, Yu Liting, sitting not far from the door. They had known each other for more than ten years when they graduated from high school. In the blink of an eye, they had a deep friendship. Yu Liting had always wanted to help Zheng Jing when she was in trouble this time, but her words carried little weight.
"Zheng Jing, why did you buy me coffee? How have you been recently?" Yu Liting asked with concern as soon as she saw Zheng Jing.
"Same old. Not good, but not dead." Zheng Jing smiled bitterly. "Forget it, let's not talk about this."
"Don't be so pessimistic. There will always be a turn for the better." Yu Liting comforted her. At this time, she also noticed Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun behind Zheng Jing. A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. "Zheng Jing, these two are?"
"This is Chen Xing, my college classmate. As for this one, he is Chen Xing's colleague." Zheng Jing didn't know Jiang Haijun, so she could only introduce them in this way.
Hearing Zheng Jing's introduction, Yu Liting felt a little strange. She glanced at Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun before looking at Zheng Jing with a puzzled expression. She did not ask anything and just smiled. Since you are all friends, please take a seat.
Zheng Jing sat down beside Yu Liting. She exchanged glances with Chen Xing and asked if Chen Xing wanted to speak directly.
"Zheng Jing, you haven't introduced your friend to us yet." Chen Xing smiled.
"Ah, look at me." Zheng Jing patted her forehead and smiled. "This beautiful girl next to me is Yu Liting. We have known each other for more than ten years.
Beautiful girl? She is already an old woman. Zheng Jing, don't insult me. " Yu Liting smiled and gently patted Zheng Jing's shoulder.
"Oh, it's Miss Yu. Nice to meet you. This is my work permit. Let's get to know each other properly." Chen Xing took out his work permit and handed it over with a smile. He planned to make it clear directly.
Yu Liting was still joking around with Zheng Jing when she saw Chen Xing handing over his work pass. She looked at Chen Xing strangely and thought to herself, "This person is really strange. If you know each other, then you know each other. Why are you handing over your work pass? Is there a need to be so formal?
