"Miss Lin, did you invite me out just because you were frightened last night?" Chen Xing didn't see the strange expression on Lin Hong's face and said half-jokingly.
"What if it was? Lin Hong pursed her lips and smiled. Will Mayor Chen think that I'm wasting your precious time?
"Of course not. I treat Miss Lin as my friend. It's not a waste of time to come out and have a chat with a friend. Otherwise, it will be disappointing." Chen Xing shook his head. Even if he didn't think so, he had to say nice words.
"If Mayor Chen means what he says, then I will really be moved by Mayor Chen's words. I don't have many friends around me, but if I have a friend like Mayor Chen, I think I will be very happy." Lin Hong smiled self-mockingly. She actually had a lot of friends, but when it came to friends that she could confide in, Lin Hong sadly found that she didn't have a single one. They were all friends for benefits. None of them could really be trusted. Lin Hong would be very grateful if they didn't stab her in the back at the critical moment.
"By the way, I forgot to tell Miss Lin one thing. Do you know who the victim of the two shootings last night was?" Chen Xing changed the topic. If he talked about friendship with Lin Hong, it would only make him more hypocritical.
"I am waiting for Mayor Chen's news. When the first shooting happened last night, I asked Mayor Chen to tell me if you knew anything, but Mayor Chen didn't call me." Lin Hong smiled.
"I forgot last night." Chen Xing smiled apologetically. When he separated from He Yijun, Chen Xing also forgot to call Lin Hong. After returning home, he stayed with his wife. When he learned that his wife was pregnant, Chen Xing was so happy that he forgot about it.
"It's not too late to tell me now. There must be a special situation when Mayor Chen specifically mentioned who the victim was." Lin Hong smiled.
Yes, Miss Lin is really smart. The victim of last night's shooting was a police officer from the Provincial Department. What do you think? Miss Lin is surprised to hear this answer. Chen Xing stopped keeping them guessing and told them the situation.
As expected, when Lin Hong heard the news, he couldn't hide the shock in his eyes. He looked at Chen Xing in disbelief. Mayor Chen, do you mean that the two shooting victims last night were policemen from the Provincial Department?
Not bad, and it was the same person. Chen Xing nodded and stopped talking nonsense. With Lin Hong's intelligence, he could deduce a lot from this information.
In that case, the police from the Provincial Department are following me. Lin Hong frowned tightly. This was really bad news for her. It was definitely a terrible thing to be targeted by the police. Moreover, it was a sensitive time to investigate Zheng Guangfu, Zhang Qingyang, and the others. What did it mean that the police of the Provincial Department were targeting her?
Mayor Chen, where are the policemen from the Provincial Department? Are they dead? Lin Hong suddenly asked.
Not dead, and not injured at all.
After being shot twice in a row, he was not injured at all. This policeman was really lucky. Lin Hong said with a little disappointment. She obviously hoped that the policeman who followed her would die.
Miss Lin seemed to hope that the policeman would die. Chen Xing glanced at Lin Hong. It was not difficult to guess her thoughts from Lin Hong's expression. Chen Xing shook his head. Miss Lin, if the policeman who followed you really died, it may not be good for you. Think about it. The policemen from the Provincial Department followed you and were shot twice in one night. Who is the biggest suspect? It's not someone else, it's you! At that time, the Provincial Department may directly take action against you.
A clean body is not afraid of a crooked shadow. I didn't ask them to kill him. What am I afraid of? The people from the Provincial Department can't forcibly put the crime of murder on me. Lin Hong's temper also rose. Although it was not directed at Chen Xing, it also showed the tough side of her character.
Miss Lin, you should know better than anyone that you can't stand the investigation. Even if the shooting has nothing to do with you, the Provincial Department wants to arrest you. Do you think they can't find other evidence? Chen Xing sneered. It was necessary to pour cold water on Lin Hong. When this woman was angry, it seemed that there was nothing she didn't dare to do.
Well,
I admit that no matter how strong an individual's strength is, he can't fight against the national government. I don't intend to go against the people from the Provincial Department. I just want to complain. Mayor Chen, as you said, if the people from the provincial hall want to arrest me, they can definitely find out some of my illegal activities. Even if they don't, it's not difficult for them to fabricate a reason, but they didn't, and just sent people to follow me. Last night, there were two shootings, and according to Mayor Chen, the biggest suspect is me. I think there must be people in the provincial hall who think the same, but the provincial hall still didn't send anyone to arrest me. Mayor Chen, don't you think it's strange? "Lin Hong smiled bitterly. Although she was complaining, Lin Hong's brain was still working very fast, analyzing the unusual parts of it. Mayor Chen, as you said, if the people from the provincial hall want to arrest me, they can definitely find out some of my illegal activities.
Mayor Chen, don't you think it's strange? This … Mayor Chen was stunned by Lin Hong's words. He thought to himself that Lin Hong's brain was really not for show.
Mayor Chen couldn't find a reason to refute, which meant that my analysis was reasonable. However, the more it was like this, the more it showed that this matter was too strange. Last night, I was wondering if there were two different groups of people following me, and the two groups of people accidentally had a gunfight, which was why there were two shooting cases. Now, it seems that my guess was right. Now, from Mayor Chen, I can confirm that one of the parties following me is the police of the Provincial Department, but I don't know who the other party is. As for why the mysterious party wants to shoot the police of the Provincial Department, no one knows. However, I think that the mysterious party is really too bold. They actually dare to attack the people of the Provincial Department. This is really shocking. Lin Hong said.
"Well, some of your guesses are very reasonable." Chen Xing nodded. Based on Lin Hong's guess, He Yijun's inference, and his own repeated deliberations after integrating the information, Chen Xing still had a relatively clear idea in his mind. He didn't hide it from Lin Hong and said, "Last night, a criminal investigation expert from the Municipal Bureau made a bold guess at the beginning. The mysterious gunman didn't want to kill the police of the Provincial Department, and it seemed that he just wanted to warn them. The second shooting case also seemed to prove the criminal investigation expert's speculation. The Provincial Department's police were still not injured, which showed that the criminal investigation expert's speculation at the beginning might be correct. The party who fired the gun didn't want to kill the other party. As for why one party would shoot the other party when both parties were following you, I couldn't figure it out.
There seemed to be too many unimaginable things about the whole thing. Right now, we can't figure it out just by thinking about it like this. But I think the truth will come to light sooner or later. " Lin Hong seemed to be comforting himself and encouraging himself. "Different situations call for different actions. As long as Mayor Chen keeps his word, it will give me great confidence."
"It seems that Miss Lin is still afraid that I will go back on my word. I have said that I will try my best to protect you, and I won't go back on my word. Please rest assured, Miss Lin." Chen Xing smiled helplessly. To be honest, the two pieces of evidence that Miss Lin gave me at the beginning could be of great use. I didn't expect that the whole thing would change faster and faster day by day. It was completely out of my original imagination, so the evidence that Miss Lin gave me was useless. Therefore, there are some things that I can't do even if I want to, just like the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Provincial Public Security Department. Of course, I'm not saying this to break the contract. I'm just stating a fact. I will try my best to do what I promised Miss Lin.
I know Mayor Chen's difficulties. However, since the first two pieces of evidence aren't enough, I don't know what Mayor Chen will think if I add this one. " Lin Hong smiled indifferently and took out a small diary from his handbag.
"What's this?" Chen Xing looked at Lin Hong in confusion. Seeing Lin Hong smiling without saying anything, Chen Xing took the diary and opened it. After a few glances, Chen Xing's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Hong. Miss Lin, this?
Whatever Mayor Chen saw, that was what was written in the diary. Lin Hong seemed to be very satisfied with Chen Xing's reaction. He smiled and thought, "That's right, it's all the evidence of Li Haocheng's violation of laws and regulations. Everything I know is recorded in it. I'm afraid that no one would expect that the sanctimonious Deputy Mayor Li, who often talks about clean government in meetings, is more corrupt than anyone else. Li Haocheng doesn't know what I've recorded. I'm afraid that he doesn't know that I know so much about him."
Chen Xing listened to Lin Hong and was lost in thought for a while. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. Once a woman wanted to betray a man, it was a terrifying thing. Since ancient times, beautiful women were the source of calamity. Since ancient times, so many ambitious men had fallen to the hands of women. It wasn't a coincidence.
I'm afraid that Li Haocheng trusts you too much, so he doesn't guard against you. That's why you know so much about him. " Chen Xing said.
Yes, Li Haocheng doesn't guard against me, but he's always cautious. He doesn't let me know many things about him. However, he doesn't expect that I've secretly done something to him. I often help him tidy up his clothes. I've put a bug on him, but he hasn't noticed it at all.
This is the most terrible thing. Even if you guard against everything, it's hard to guard against a traitor. How could Li Haocheng expect that someone close to him would do something to him? But you're really bold. Aren't you afraid that he'll find out? Chen Xing stared at Lin Hong. It wasn't the first time that he felt that this woman in front of him was bold and terrifying. But she still shocked him again and again.
There's nothing to be afraid of. I've lived with him for so many years. Although we're not husband and wife, he spends more time with me than in his home. I know him from the beginning to the end. As long as I know his habits, it's not difficult to do something to him. Lin Hong wore an indifferent face, as if it were an ordinary thing.
I admire you very much. A woman like you can make men feel afraid. Chen Xing stared at Lin Hong.
I'm the poisonous woman that you men speak of. My heart is vicious, and I'm willing to do anything. I'm willing to do anything. Lin Hong smiled and looked at Chen Xing. Will Mayor Chen feel that cooperating with me is like asking a tiger for its skin?
Not now, but from the very beginning, I know that I'm asking a tiger for its skin. I've experienced your ambition and boldness the first time we met. Chen Xing said seriously.
Mayor Chen still dares to cooperate with me. It shows that Mayor Chen is really an outstanding man. Lin Hong flattered Chen Xing.
Miss Lin, don't flatter me like this. I'll feel uncomfortable. Chen Xing curled his lips and waved the diary in his hand. Miss Lin, do you want to give this to me?
That's right. Since I showed it to Mayor Chen, of course I have to give it to you. Lin Hong nodded. This is my life-saving thing. I've never thought that I would take it out. But Mayor Chen's character gives me confidence. I also decided to give it to Mayor Chen after careful consideration. I have no reservations about Mayor Chen. I hope Mayor Chen won't let me down. Now I really don't have any evidence.
This little diary is very important. I have to think about how to make good use of it. Miss Lin, thank you for giving it to me. I've promised, and I won't go back on my word. Chen Xing didn't know what to say. He could only repeat what he said before.
