“Yes, Young Master?”
“Send a team of people to stand guard at Hotel Yiyuan, which is next to Jinghan Hospital for fire and burns.”
“Roger that.”
After hanging up the call, he crossed his arms across his chest and quietly kept vigil outside the ward.
…
Right before heading down to the police station, Mu Yazhe made a phone call to the bureau to express the intention of his visit and was told that his message would be relayed to the bureau chief.
Sure enough, the bureau chief appeared at the station within minutes of his arrival.
It was three o’clock in the morning now. The elderly bureau chief had been lying comfortably in his large bed at home when he received news that a bigshot was on his way to the precinct to investigate a certain case. Not daring to tarry, he hopped off the bed speedily and rushed over, reaching the station under twenty minutes.
As soon as he stepped inside, he spotted Mu Yazhe sitting in the waiting room. He quietly wiped off his sweat before he plastered a smile on his face and greeted the man with a warm smile.
“h.e.l.lo, Chairman Mu! Sorry for the wait! He he!”
Chairman Mu?
Oh. The Mu Group sure acts slowly. I suppose they haven’t issued a public announcement about my resignation yet, and that’s why not many know that I’ve stepped down as the family head.
Whatever. Now isn’t the time to be concerned over such trivialities. Who knows if these sn.o.bs will still welcome me so warmly after knowing the truth?
The bureau chief had no idea what was going through the man’s mind as he respectfully invited him into his office for further discussion.
The moment they were within the confines of his office, Mu Yazhe did not bother with small talks and just stated the purpose of his visit.
Being a busy man, the bureau chief was unaware of this case at first, for he usually only took on the major cases. However, upon the man’s mention of this particular case, he summoned the captain who was responsible for it with a phone call to find out the progress of their investigation.
The captain entered the office moments later and was shocked to know the ident.i.ty of the visitor after his boss’s flattering introduction of the man. He initially thought that the particular case he was handling was just a simple case of robbery. After all, they had searched the crime scene and found nothing suspicious. With the perpetrator remaining at large and the victim still in a critical and unconscious stage, they reached a bottleneck with this case due to the limited clues they could gather. The case had, therefore, been temporarily shelved until further clues were found.
Never did he expect the victim’s son-in-law to be the legendary, young yet rigorous CEO of the Mu family. He was so surprised by this news that he could not help but break into a cold sweat.
One really mustn’t judge a person by their appearance!
To think that I’ve mistakenly a.s.sumed that the victim came from an ordinary background. Gosh, I really didn’t expect this!
From what I know, Yun Yecheng works at a factory and draws a salary of a few thousand yuan, which is barely enough to make ends meet.
Why is he slogging so hard when his son-in-law is from the Mu family?
Any job they a.s.sign him surely pays handsomely!
At the thought of this, the captain nervously said, “My apologies, Chairman Mu! If I knew that he’s your father-in-law, we would put this case on top of our priority list!”
Mu Yazhe waved his hand in dismissal, asking bluntly, “You’ve been following this case right from the start. Do you have any leads?”
“We found nothing suspicious…” The captain shook his head blankly. “We didn’t manage to find any clues at the crime scene. It seems that the perpetrator came prepared, so they didn’t leave behind any incriminating evidence. What’s more; it rained heavily after that, so the collection of evidence became much more difficult. I’m waiting for the patient to regain consciousness so that I can take his testimony to see if I can find any clues from it.”
