Chapter 18 Something was wrong ten years ago
Wu Qingluan raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips: "It is indeed your business, but we have received news from Sheng Yuandong's wife Qin Lu. When Sheng Yuandong was alive, he clearly stated that all his shares would go to his son Sheng Lei."
"There's this?" Zhao Kaichuan was also stunned, but Wu Qingluan easily broke his disguise at the moment: "Ms. Qin Lu has a recording as evidence, and according to the content of the recording, Mr. Zhao, you were also present at the time and you supported Mr. Sheng Yuandong's decision."
The expression on Zhao Kaichuan's face was a little embarrassed. It was true that this happened, but he never expected that Qin Lu would record it!
"Then I guess I forgot... hehe..." Zhao Kaichuan could only respond to Wu Qingluan with a fake smile at this moment. Seeing him like this, Wu Qingluan knew that no matter how much she asked, she would not get anything out of him. This man's words were half true and half false, so she had to start from other aspects.
"Okay, let's stop here today, Mr. Zhao, thank you for your cooperation." Wu Qingluan and Cao Cang did not intend to proceed further. Obviously, Zhao Kaichuan did not want the two to continue to entangle.
"Zhao Kaichuan must have hidden something. There is indeed something fishy about Zheng Yi's death." Cao Cang spoke as soon as he left the Kaisheng Building.
"Yes, when I asked about ten years ago, Zhao Kaichuan's face changed. Although he tried his best to hide it, I still saw the flaw. He quickly denied it and said that he had no idea about the number ten years ago. But when I mentioned Zheng Yi, he naturally thought of the insurance money, which further proved that his performance just now was deliberate." Wu Qingluan agreed with Cao Cang's point of view.
"And..." Wu Qingluan took out a card from his pocket. Cao Cang frowned: "What is this?"
Wu Qingluan chuckled, "When I came out just now, I took it from Zhao Kaichuan's desk when he wasn't paying attention. This card was in Zhao Kaichuan's folder. He must have stuffed it in in a hurry when we went there. Is it necessary to be so nervous about a card? So I took it out to see if I can find out anything."
"Teacher Wu, I didn't expect you could do such a thing." Cao Cang smiled rarely and took the card from her hand to observe it. The card was about the same size as a business card and was exquisitely made, but there was only a phone number on it, which did seem strange.
"Do you think I'm the type to do that?" Wu Qingluan asked Cao Cang as she got into the car. Cao Cang chuckled and said, "The goddess doesn't seem to do that."
"A goddess?" Wu Qingluan asked him back, and then said: "That's because you don't know me yet. I'm not a goddess in front of acquaintances."
Cao Cang was slightly stunned, but soon smiled again.
As for Gu Nankai and Li Meng, since Zheng Yi's parents returned to the countryside after the accident and his wife Lin Lin remarried a few years later, it was difficult to find the place, and it took the two of them some time to find him.
Lin Lin seemed a little surprised at the police's visit again. There was a little girl about ten years old beside her. Her big eyes rolled around at the strange visitor with a clever look on her face. Gu Nankai guessed that this should be Zheng Yi's child.
Lin Lin's current husband looked like a very honest man. When he heard that the police were here to ask questions, he and his wife both became nervous. Gu Nankai said a few words to ease their tension after understanding the situation. The man seemed very reasonable and secretly comforted his wife. He turned around and pushed Lin Lin onto the sofa, smiling and saying, "Answer the police questions and I will do the work."
He brought the child into the house neatly. Lin Lin looked at everything in front of her awkwardly, but her husband's understanding made her feel a little better, and she was not as nervous as at the beginning. Seeing her look, Gu Nankai said, "Brother is very good and reasonable."
Lin Lin was a little embarrassed, but the awkward smile on her face seemed a little shy: "It's good, it's good to be good to the child, treat him as your own."
Although the family was not that wealthy, Gu Nankai could tell from every little detail of the family that the woman was living a good life after remarriage. After a brief chat, he got to the point: "We came here today to learn about Zheng Yi's affairs. If you know anything, tell us."
"Zheng Yi? What happened?" Lin Lin was surprised to hear this person mentioned again after so many years. She looked at Gu Nankai with a confused face, not understanding the reason.
Gu Nankai explained to her: "It's like this, a murder case we took over may be related to Zheng Yi."
"How is it possible!" Lin Lin seemed very excited. She stood up all of a sudden and said, "Zheng Yi has been dead for ten years. How could he be related to any murder? Mr. Police, you must have made a mistake!"
Seeing her so excited, the man inside was alarmed, and he leaned out to look at her worriedly. Gu Nankai quickly pressed his arm to signal Lin Lin not to get too excited: "We just want to understand the situation now, don't get too excited."
Lin Lin seemed to realize that she was a little too excited. She smiled embarrassedly and sat down again: "Officer, I'm not excited. Zheng Yi has indeed been dead for ten years. What happened? Who died?"
"Sheng Yuandong." Gu Nankai stared into her eyes and said the name.
Lin Lin was stunned for a moment , as if she had heard this name for the first time, and then suddenly realized: "It's him?" Lin Lin's face changed slightly, and at this moment she seemed to understand why the police came to her.
"What exactly happened to Zheng Yi's huge compensation ten years ago? Is there any hidden story behind it?" Gu Nankai asked immediately.
Lin Lin recalled for a long while before speaking: "Although I don't know Zheng Yi very well, he is indeed a strong-willed person. No one can stop him from doing what he wants to do. He doesn't talk to me much about work, but I still know a little about Sheng Yuandong."
Gu Nankai also figured it out. Lin Lin was given to Zheng Yi by his parents. The emotional foundation between the two was weak. It was understandable that Lin Lin knew little. He adjusted his posture slightly: "Tell us, tell us everything you know."
Lin Lin nodded: "At that time, Zheng Yi, Sheng Yuandong and Zhao Kaichuan had cooperated several times with some success. Sheng Yuandong and Zhao Kaichuan were very fond of Zheng Yi. Zheng Yi was planning a new project at the time, but I remember he said at the time that Sheng Yuandong and his team felt that there were risks and had opinions about the new project, but Zheng Yi would not tolerate others saying bad things about him. There seemed to be a conflict between the three of them for a while, but one day Zheng Yi came back very happy and told me that Sheng Yuandong and Zhao Kaichuan agreed to start the new project."
Linlin stopped talking here and looked at Gu Nankai to indicate that she was done. Gu Nankai thought for a moment and said, "Didn't he say that if the project failed, he would be fully responsible and would have to compensate Sheng Yuandong and Zhao Kaichuan with a large sum of money?"
Lin Lin shook her head: "No, I didn't know about this until Zheng Yi died."
"You only found out about this after he died?" Gu Nankai was a little surprised and leaned forward slightly.
Lin Lin nodded and said affirmatively: "I only found out about this when Sheng Yuandong and his friends came to our house with the contract after Zheng Yi died. I also only found out about the insurance money when they came and Zheng Yi's parents told me about it."
It seemed that Lin Lin knew very little. Gu Nankai nodded and asked, "Do you know where Zheng Yi's parents are now?"
Lin Lin hummed, then hesitated: "After receiving the compensation and paying back Sheng Yuandong and the others, Zheng Yi's parents said they wanted to return to the countryside. I don't know where they are, after all, it's been so long."
Now that Lin Lin was talking about it, she suddenly felt something was wrong. She frowned, and Gu Nankai saw her expression: "Why, have you thought of anything?"
