"Not necessarily."

Luo Fei's response was ambiguous.

This piqued Li Yu's intense interest. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"Mr. Luo, what do you mean by that?"

"Could it be that Wu Zhicheng is lying?"

Luo Fei shook his head and said.

"Not necessarily, maybe Wu Zhicheng is just a pawn being used by Bai Rongjun."

"Or perhaps he is just a scapegoat chosen by Bai Rongjun. After all, the less motive he has, the more we'll find ways to dig up potential evidence of his crime. This can help Bai Rongjun divert others' attention very well."

Luo Fei's analysis.

Made Li Yu almost instantly hold his breath.

"Mr. Luo, are you suggesting that Bai Rongjun might look for an opportunity to frame Wu Zhicheng, proving that he acted on impulse. Even implying that he harmed Bai Boss and Chen Meihong to pursue a relationship with Gu Nan."

"That's correct, your analysis is very reasonable. I think the same way."

Luo Fei's affirmative reply.

Made Li Yu's expression somewhat serious.

"Mr. Luo, if that's the case, we might need to immediately send someone to protect Wu Zhicheng secretly."

"No need."

But the next moment, Luo Fei immediately denied the thought.

Leaving Li Yu somewhat surprised.

"Mr. Luo, what do you mean by that?"

"Are we really not going to take measures to protect Wu Zhicheng, knowing he might be in danger? If we wait until he encounters big trouble, it might be too late."

Seeing Li Yu's concern.

Her dark eyes revealed unease.

Luo Fei comforted her.

"Li Yu, there's no need to worry."

"Moreover, instead of trying hard to protect him, conversely, we should publicly announce that the case's progress is still unclear."

"Although Wu Zhicheng has an alibi, he is still highly suspicious."

Just as Luo Fei said this.

Wu Zhicheng finished making his statement.

Came out of the room ready to see them off.

He happened to hear Luo Fei's earlier words.

This almost instantly flustered Wu Zhicheng.

"Mr. Luo, I'm a good person, I can swear to the heavens, I've never done anything cruel or hurt anyone, please justify for me!"

But seeing Wu Zhicheng's panic.

Luo Fei laughed and shook his head.

"Wu Zhicheng, it's not that I don't believe you. It's just that investigating requires evidence. If there isn't enough evidence, no matter how much I believe you, what use is it?"

"Even though you've been absent recently, from your perspective, there's strong motive for crime. So my suspicion of you is quite reasonable."

Luo Fei intentionally spoke loudly.

This attracted quite a few colleagues' sidelong glances.

Though everyone continued their work without saying a word.

Some even intentionally pretended to walk hastily, as if they hadn't seen Luo Fei's group's interaction.

But Luo Fei knew.

His purpose had been achieved.

Meanwhile.

For Wu Zhicheng.

He was now frowning with beads of sweat appearing.

However, the next second.

Luo Fei tugged his shoulder and whispered a few words in his ear.

And just within this moment.

Wu Zhicheng's deep, squinted eyes suddenly widened.

"Mr. Luo, is this true?"

"But no matter how I listen, it seems impossible, is it really true?"

At this moment.

Wu Zhicheng was genuinely taken aback.

He never expected.

Luo Fei and his team would make such a bold assumption.

"Mr. Wu, although not a hundred percent certain, based on the evidence gathered so far, the truth might actually be like this. That's why we hope to collaborate with you and gain your assistance."

"To better assist Gu Nan in solving the case swiftly."

Wu Zhicheng nodded in agreement repeatedly.

"Mr. Luo, I understand your intention. I'll prepare later and try to perform well."

Seeing some restlessness, seemingly wanting to say more.

Li Yu frowned slightly at their words.

"Mr. Luo, what exactly did you say to Wu Zhicheng just now?"

Li Yu was a bit surprised.

Her face revealed some bewilderment.

Luo Fei also chuckled.

"Li Yu, I just mentioned that despite Bai Boss's untimely demise, considering different aspects, Wu Zhicheng should attend the funeral to appease public anger. It also demonstrates he has no relation to Bai Boss's death, an innocent person fears no shadow."

But Luo Fei's incoherent explanation.

Puzzled Li Yu.

"That's not right, Mr. Luo, given the situation, shouldn't we have Wu Zhicheng hide away as much as possible?"

In Li Yu's view, many might want trouble for Wu Zhicheng now, so under these circumstances, hiding to protect oneself seems the most prudent strategy.

But noticing Li Yu's embarrassment.

The conversation reached discomfort.

Luo Fei simply laughed.

"Li Yu, if we can't draw the snake from its hole now, when will we catch the real criminal?"

"This is the exact effect of shocking the snake that I want."

Luo Fei's intention was clear.

He aimed to provoke Bai Rongjun.

Because once he loses his calm, he might take further actions.

This made Li Yu worry.

"Mr. Luo, even though that's the plan, I doubt Bai Rongjun will willingly admit his mistake and confess obediently, right?"
