How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 98 Nanhu Boating, Understanding Others, Oneself, and Intentions
Chapter 98: Chapter 98 Nanhu Boating, Understanding Others, Oneself, and Intentions
The people in the hall were all tense.
The late-night police car always gives people some rather unpleasant associations...
What happened again?
I hope it’s not another Alien Species Spider murder case.
Could it be that Old Ding ultimately can’t sleep at home?
The police car stopped in front of the villa, one person got out.
Waving at the driver in the car, the police car turned around.
Ding Ruoshui sprang up and ran to the front door to personally open it for him...
Entering the hall, Ding Lizhong stood up, Mrs. Ding also stood, both with faces full of anticipation...
Lin Xiaosu smiled faintly: "Uncle, it’s all right now!"
Those three words again, it’s all right!
Ding Lizhong took a deep breath: "How can it be alright?"
"Tonight’s Alien Species Spider murder case has been solved. The perpetrator is He Yunfei from the Changsheng Group’s second research department, and no surprises, Huang Chengwang was the one who instructed him to do it!"
"It really was him!" Ding Lizhong exclaimed, "Has he been caught?"
"When the police arrived, he had already fled, flying to Fusang Country!" Lin Xiaosu said, "But it doesn’t matter, the evidence chain has already been almost perfected."
Ding Lizhong gently closed his eyes...
That closure signified the end of a friendship that lasted for decades!
After a while, he slowly sat down, slowly lifted the teacup in front of him, slowly looked up, "Actually, the first time the Alien Species murder occurred, I wondered if someone used a hidden method to infiltrate the system. I checked the system and found no traces of usage. Now it seems, his neutrino technology had advanced far enough to indeed breach the system defenses I had set."
"You’re wrong!" Lin Xiaosu said: "He didn’t invade your system."
"Not invade?" Ding Lizhong exclaimed in shock: "Then how was it controlled?"
"The spiders that committed the murder were never the ones under your control, but a different group!" Lin Xiaosu explained: "Huang Chengwang instructed He Yunfei to breed four Alien Species Spiders in a secret underground chamber. These spiders committed the murders both this time and last time."
"But that doesn’t make sense..." Ding Lizhong trembled violently: "After the last murder, the police detected the victim’s DNA on the claws of the spiders I controlled, proving that the real murderer was indeed this spider."
"This was a set-up! Someone deliberately smeared the victim’s DNA on the spider’s legs beforehand."
"Who?"
"Your assistant, Zhou Yibo!"
"Zhou Yibo! My student whom I personally trained, my assistant on the project, he framed me, he..." Ding Lizhong, overwhelmed with emotion, finally let out a long sigh of relief, "Has he been caught?"
Lin Xiaosu gently shook his head: "You forgot to ask me, tonight, who actually died."
Ding Lizhong’s eyes slowly widened, "Is... it him?"
"Yes! Zhou Yibo is already dead, killed by a spider’s leg! His involvement in this plot was ultimately a risk; hence whether it be He Yunfei or Huang Chengwang, killing Zhou Yibo not only eliminated the risk but also framed you once again..."
Why would killing Zhou Yibo also frame Ding Lizhong?
Because Zhou Yibo was Ding Lizhong’s assistant.
An assistant usually sticks closer to the principal, making it easier to discover secrets not known to others.
In times when the boss is trapped, killing the assistant who knows the secrets makes sense for the perpetrator...
If Lin Xiaosu hadn’t stepped in tonight, and had the murder case resolved completely, Ding Lizhong’s charge of murder would have virtually been confirmed.
But he did step in.
The case was truly resolved.
Not only tonight’s murder but even the one from two months ago, the truth has been revealed.
The spiders committing the murders were completely unrelated to the three Alien Species Spiders under his control.
Ding Lizhong’s lips trembled lightly: "So, am I... really innocent?"
"Yes! Congratulations, uncle."
A hint of rosiness appeared on Ding Lizhong’s face: "Cai Cai, prepare some drinks and dishes, I’ll have a drink with Su’er!"
Cai Cai is Mrs. Ding’s nickname, something Old Ding would never call her in front of others.
But today, he did.
Mrs. Ding happily ran off to prepare the drinks and dishes...
The maid sleeping on the first floor actually wasn’t asleep; she didn’t dare to sleep because the master hadn’t, and sure enough, she was needed, swiftly going to the kitchen to prepare the drinks and dishes.
As the drinks and dishes were served, Ding Lizhong opened a bottle of wine. Lin Xiaosu noticed the label and was taken aback; his thorough knowledge as a detective also included luxury goods, and he knew what this wine cost, it wasn’t just drinks, but equivalent to a flat in the city...
But no matter, they were happy.
On Lin Xiaosu’s first night at the Ding family, drinking wine priced in the hundreds of thousands per bottle, sleeping on a bed worth who knows how many hundred thousands, looking at a ceiling worth who knows how much per square meter, he experienced the life of a tycoon.
In just one day, he accomplished and even exceeded what Ding Ruoshui had assigned him.
Ruolan had already messaged him.
The remaining three hundred thousand had been transferred to his account.
Meaning this case was brought to a satisfying close.
The next day, early morning, Lin Xiaosu got out of bed and went up to the roof.
Here, was one of the best viewing platforms for Nanhu scenery; the morning fog rose, the lake appeared enchantingly beautiful. From today onward, crossing Nanhu might also offer a different view, from the lakeside road looking back at this villa, isn’t that a sight itself?
"Hey!" a voice came from the staircase.
Lin Xiaosu shifted her gaze and saw Ding Ruoshui.
Today she was dressed in a short skirt, a dazzling purple, and everything else on her body was as white as snow.
"My mom had Uncle Deng prepare a boat, we’re going to go boating on the lake today," Ding Ruoshui approached.
"Our deal seems to have already completed, and the drama, it seems, should also come to a close," Lin Xiaosu said.
"There is a bit of a serious problem," Ding Ruoshui said.
"What?"
"My mom scolded me yesterday, giving me the most serious warning she’s ever issued, not to just use you and then dump you. If I don’t have a conscience, she’s going to cut off my allowance."
"No way? You rich people still talk about having a conscience?" Lin Xiaosu was surprised.
"Get lost! What do you mean rich people have no conscience? You’re the one who’s heartless! How pitiful my mom is, having a daughter like me who isn’t interested in men. Just yesterday we gave her a little hope, and today you’re gonna douse it with a bucket of cold water, how could you be so cruel? My mom even personally cooked her only dish for you, let me tell you, besides my dad, no outsiders have ever eaten it..."
"Are you talking about the ’Tomato Fried with Tomatoes’?"
"Uh-huh!"
"... Your dad really ate that?" Lin Xiaosu said: "Last night the dish came as it was and stayed as it was, I didn’t even see your dad reaching out with his chopsticks."
"You... you’re just a snob!" Ding Ruoshui got annoyed: "Is a dish about the taste? It’s about the ceremonial feel! My mom made it with her own hands, that’s the point, what are you talking about taste with my mom..."
Lin Xiaosu held her forehead, her gaze drifting underfoot to Nanhu Lake: "Okay okay, I get what you mean. Ceremonial feel, right? Alright, today let’s go boating on the lake and in their eyes perform a ’soft-core movie with lips and tongues entwined and gazes like silk threads’..."
Ding Ruoshui gave him a look: "Tch! I’m giving you the chance, but you wouldn’t dare to go there."
"Why not?"
"Because of the 400,000 I gave you! If you take any advantage, it changes the nature... you’d have to refund!"
Shit! Lin Xiaosu fled the scene.
After breakfast, they boarded the pleasure boat.
The boat wasn’t big, powered by electricity.
Lin Xiaosu steered the boat, speeding along Nanhu Lake.
Ding Ruoshui sat on the edge of the boat, her snow-white thighs intimately meeting the emerald lake, the splashing waves adding a dynamic quality to Nanhu. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
Atop the roof, Mrs. Ding’s eyes crinkled into a smile: "Xiao Zhong, do you like this son-in-law?"
"I think... I think he’s a bit too smart."
"Is being smart a bad thing? If he wasn’t smart, you’d still be struggling in the mud! I’m warning you, you must like him! Like him immediately, dare you not like him, I’ll kill you!"
"Okay, okay... can’t I just like him?" Ding Lizhong outright compromised: "I should go to work today!"
"Ah? Did Old Li call you?" This Old Li, of course, was Li Changsheng, chairman of the Changsheng Group.
Ding Lizhong lightly nodded, a gleam in his eyes...
Huang Chengwang’s escape threw the entire Science and Research department II into chaos, the police had already arrested dozens of people yesterday, that line is basically ruined, Li Changsheng had called him early this morning, asking him to hurry back to work and set the research direction.
This means that the research direction will once again return to his control.
For a scientist, the biggest thrill is seeing one’s life’s work come to fruition.
From today on, everything will be normal.
The reason for normalcy is because his daughter got a boyfriend.
To be honest, his daughter getting a boyfriend was in itself a thrilling point because his daughter was too bland, so bland that she didn’t seem part of the mortal world, matters of men and women seemed less significant to her than an autumn leaf, suddenly catching on, his wife got extremely excited last night, even taking the initiative to make love.
On the lake, the persons manifested youthful elegance, freely expressing their youthfulness.
On the rooftop, the parents looked on happily, expressing parental emotions.
However, not all onlookers viewed the playfulness on the lake with appreciation and delight.
At a tea house by the lake, under a sun umbrella, a beautiful woman holding binoculars intensely focused on the speedboat circling the lake, her expression dark as if dripping.
Her name was Liu Qianxun.
Her father’s name was Liu Yuanchang.
Yes, she was from Fengcheng Baiyang Village; her father, her three brothers had all been ruined by Lin Xiaosu, not in a general sense, but had directly been dealt a heavy hand, destroying their entire bodies’ meridians.
For an Ancient Martial Inheritor, this was a pain more unbearable than death.
Because this meant that from now on, let alone walking through the world with Ancient Martial Arts, they couldn’t even stand up.
The whole Liu family, previously who didn’t have people, money, power, industries, and connections they admired for miles?
What about now?
Industries gone, bank accounts frozen, just left with one house, one woman whose mentality had become abnormal, guarding four living dead.
Such a great downturn, so great was Liu Qianxun’s hatred towards Lin Xiaosu.
This son of a bitch, actually came to Jiangcheng!
Lin Xiaosu coming to Jiangcheng had been something Liu Qianxun eagerly anticipated, because she knew it would be difficult to take action against him in Fengcheng, but once he came to Jiangcheng, her home ground, she could easily torment him into doubting his life.
But yesterday, just one day, because of his involvement, Huang Chengwang, a highly pivotal real charge of scientific research at Changsheng Group, was disgraced and fled overseas.
What did this indicate?
It indicated that he was not without foundations in Jiangcheng!
At least, the playful disturbance on the lake showed that Ding Lizhong, third in command of the Changsheng Group, was hooked up with him.
