The enlarged ID was an X Country police officer’s badge.
Shi Yaoguang didn’t know how she knew, but when she saw the ID, she understood its purpose.
After realizing it was a customs docunt, she couldn’t help but wonder why Quan Jinbei had been taken away by customs.
Normally, even in the face of a suspected cri, they wouldn’t make such a big fuss.
Unless...
There was so evidence.
But based on her understanding of Quan Jinbei, he wasn’t the type to engage in such activities.
Soon, she thought of a possibility.
Quan Jinbei indeed wasn’t the sort of person to do such things.
But his identity was there, and it was possible...
That soone deliberately set him up.
With this in mind, she imdiately focused her suspicions on Quan Sicheng and the old Mr. Quan.
According to her guess, these two were the most suspicious.
Thinking of them, Shi Yaoguang quickly started typing on her keyboard.
She soon locked onto the electronic devices of the grandfather and grandson.
Don’t ask how she possessed a skill not even hackers were guaranteed to master, if you ask, it’s because she’s formidable.
Shi Yaoguang herself didn’t know when she had learned it, but after a brief mont of surprise, she began to look through the devices of Quan Sicheng and the old man to check their situations.
After a while, her expression grew serious.
Quan Jinbei being taken away by customs was indeed the doing of these two.
To talk about the old man, he was truly ruthless.
When he and Quan Sicheng conspired to fra Quan Jinbei, they didn’t consider at all that Quan Jinbei was also his biological son.
Perhaps, in the eyes of so, interest is above all else.
"Dad, Quan Jinbei has been arrested, and now he’s in the customs interrogation room. You say... we won’t be in trouble, will we?"
Through the computer, Shi Yaoguang heard Quan Sicheng speaking to the old man.
The disdainful voice of the old man ca quickly, "Don’t worry, this has nothing to do with us."
"But..." Quan Sicheng was still a bit worried.
If it were traced back to him, it wouldn’t just be a simple matter of going to jail.
The severity of it could even lead to execution.
Thinking this, he couldn’t help but shiver.
No, this wouldn’t do.
He could not allow himself to be dragged into this affair.
If sothing really went wrong, regrets would be too late.
The old Mr. Quan certainly knew what he was thinking. At this mont, he regretted indulging in such a timid and cowardly son, but it was too late.
He was now old, and he wasn’t close with his first and second sons.
Moreover, among his four sons, only the third one had a legitimate child.
Rembering this made the old man feel a headache.
If only he had known not to put all his eggs in one basket, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
Moreover, since he had already frad Quan Jinbei, it was clearly too late for regrets.
Instead of worrying about being exposed, it’s better to find another way out.
Of course, Quan Sicheng had no idea about the old man’s thoughts.
He had done as the old man had instructed.
Quan Jinbei was successfully invited for a "tea".
This, naturally, pleased him.
He was happy to see Quan Jinbei’s misfortune.
But, he always had an ominous premonition.
Fearful that soday, this misfortune might fall on his own head.
"Dad, are you sure we won’t have a problem? Why do I always feel uneasy..."
Listening to him, the old man couldn’t help but snort coldly, "Even if you’re faint-hearted, hide it! Don’t let hear you say it out loud, it’s annoying!"
Quan Sicheng silently closed his mouth.
"Then I’ll say no more..."
...
Unbeknownst to them, their entire conversation had fallen into the ears of Shi Yaoguang.
Knowing that they were responsible for the situation, Shi Yaoguang was in no hurry.
As for evidence, she could have it whenever she wanted.
For now, she decided to go see how Quan Jinbei was doing.
Half an hour later.
Shi Yaoguang knocked on the customs authority’s door.
The customs officers, upon learning about Shi Yaoguang’s intentions, were sowhat surprised, "Miss Shi, what did you say you’re here for?"
Shi Yaoguang calmly repeated her purpose, "I’ve co to discuss a business deal with the customs officials."
"I’m sorry, but you may not be fully aware, our customs office isn’t a place for conducting business..."
Shi Yaoguang’s eyebrows raised slightly, giving the officer an inexplicable sense of trepidation.
However, what needed to be said still had to be expressed, and the officer could only explain under pressure, "It’s not that I’m not accommodating; it’s just that customs really isn’t the place for business dealings. If you have so business you wish to pursue, you might want to cooperate with soone else..."
Shi Yaoguang sighed, "My business isn’t necessarily dependent on your customs authority."
The officer breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
As long as Shi Yaoguang wasn’t being unreasonably difficult, they wouldn’t have to worry about how to send her away.
While thinking this, he heard Shi Yaoguang continue, "Since you do not wish to do business with , I’ll have to look for soone else."
The officer replied, "Then please take your ti leaving."
Although Shi Yaoguang had co to customs looking for cooperation, it appeared as if she was picking a fight.
But, because of the aura she carried, nobody dared to question her.
The officer even felt that he didn’t have this kind of feeling when facing higher-ups.
After Shi Yaoguang took a few steps away, her voice drifted back, "Since customs isn’t interested, I’m off to the X departnt."
The officer didn’t take it seriously at first, until he heard Shi Yaoguang ntion going to the X departnt.
Like customs, the X departnt wasn’t a place for doing business either.
Moreover, to the general populace, the X departnt seed untouchable.
If the purpose of customs is clear to everyone, understanding it’s where the investigation into contraband and such occurs, where nothing questionable would be allowed through.
Then the X departnt is akin to sothing like a national security agency.
So people are aware of the X departnt.
Others have not even heard of it.
But as a customs officer, the person receiving Shi Yaoguang, of course, knew about it.
And because he was aware, upon hearing Shi Yaoguang’s words, his first reaction was to stop her.
"Miss Shi, please wait a mont!"
It’s known that customs and the X departnt have tensions.
It wasn’t about the kind of enmity that necessitated a life-or-death struggle.
It was simply two competing departnts.
When the officer heard Shi Yaoguang announce her intention to visit the X departnt, even though he still felt this wasn’t a place for business, he couldn’t dare to simply let her go.
What if Shi Yaoguang truly had so benefit for customs?
If because of his oversight during an inspection, he ended up handing over leverage to the rival X departnt, he would be inexcusably at fault.
Shi Yaoguang had anticipated his reaction and imdiately revealed a faint smile.
"Thank you for your trouble."
The officer politely responded with a "You’re welco," and imdiately reported Shi Yaoguang’s presence to the higher-ups.
Soon, a response ca from above.
They were instructed to ensure Shi Yaoguang was courteously retained, as soone would soon co to engage with her.
Shi Yaoguang was there to see Quan Jinbei, and as she hadn’t yet t him, she naturally wouldn’t rush to leave.
She also took the opportunity to inquire, eager to confirm if Quan Jinbei had indeed been sent to the customs prison.
The answer she received was negative.
