Chapter 376: Oh, It Is His Second Uncle

Translator:?Nyoi-Bo Studio??Editor:?Nyoi-Bo Studio

Around noon, the rain finally stopped. The sun, which had not been out for a long ti, showed its smiling face and brought warmth to the city after the heavy rain.

But, sumr was sumr at the end of the day. The sun had only just risen for a while, when the temperature took a turn. The lovely warmth had turned into an almost unbearable hotness and humidity.

Zhao Yu was enjoying his lunch in a noodle shop, which had already turned on its air conditioner. He sat near the window, looking out at the raindrops on the tree branches outside. He was lost in thought over the complicated case.

What Li ngqi said had given him so hints about the Female Corpse in the Ancient Costu Case. That made the cold case that had been put aside for many years seem to be almost traceable! But, at the sa ti, what Li ngqi said had also uncovered another layer of mystery and veiled unknowns in the case.

Zhao Yu had seen the record of the Female Corpse in the Ancient Costu case. According to that record, the female died of suffocation. One would then assu that she had been strangled to death by soone. But, the autopsy report clearly stated that the female had no signs of being violated…

Where did this woman with the nickna “Gege” co from? Was it that she was really killed because of so relationship problem? And if the woman was in the sa trade as Li ngqi, could she also be a cultural relics seller? Also, the ancient costu that she was wearing, was it from her own collection?

Unfortunately, Li ngqi’s grandfather had passed away many years ago. Li ngqi tried her best, but she could only rember a few people that might know Gege. And even these people that she thought of were either known to her only by nickna or had already passed away!

But, there was still a string of hope that Zhao Yu clung to. He left the detention center and imdiately told Liang Huan and Zhang Jingfeng about the clues that he had gotten, so that the two of them could further investigate the matters.

Of course, besides updating them about his investigation results, Zhao Yu asked Zhang Jingfeng to check on Mister Lee.

Like the saying goes: “Knowing one’s own, and the enemy’s, strength is the sure way to victory”, before he ever took action, Zhao Yu naturally had to know the other party’s background.

Zhang Jingfeng was an expert in looking for people. Zhao Yu was only halfway through his lunch, when the requested information about Mister Lee had already been sent to his handphone!

According to the information, Mister Lee’s alias na was Li Xiusheng, who was also registered as a tradesman doing flower trading. Hence, on the surface, he was a legitimate businessman.

But, unconventionally, the assets under his na totaled up to include more than two billion, countless luxurious cars, and jaw-dropping houses. It was hard to imagine how soone who runs a flower shop could legally earn such a huge amount of money.

Then, Zhao Yu started thinking seriously. How could he get information about the ancient tomb case from Mister Lee?

Do I have to put on a show, like the secret agent battle? Should I pretend to be a rich man in order to buy cultural relics, then use that as an excuse to get close to him?

Or, maybe I could pretend to be a robber, then go disguised and force him to tell

everything, as I point a gun to his head…

I could also keep things simple and?just sneak into his flower shop to investigate in secret…

And, there is another invisible cara in my device bar. Why not just keep watch of him for a while?

But… From the lesson he had learned the night before, Zhao Yu felt that no matter which investigative thod he chose, it would still be best to head to the police station to get a gun. If he had had a gun with him the night before, there wouldn’t have been so much trouble.

Plus, after the battle of the night before, he felt exhausted. If he were to have another fight with Mister Lee’s troop, his stamina might adequate. So, after his al, Zhao Yu returned to the police station straightaway.

Of course, before he took the gun, he had to return to the office to report in and ask for the latest update regarding the progression of the Tomb Murder Case. In the end, the case was still the sa.

Miao Ying had sent the team out to investigate different clues, but no one had any harvest, including Zhao Yu’s flower market incident. They apparently had rejoiced too soon.

At that ti, Miao Ying had gone out for lunch. Zhao Yaohui told Zhao Yu that Captain Miao had asked about the situation of the municipal bureau investigation team through her connections. The municipal bureau investigation team had apparently visited a large number of friends and family of the three experts that got lost, but no one knew what they were up to that ti.

They also heard from their families that the three experts were on very friendly terms. It was even said that they went deep into the forest for many inspections together in their youths. They even ca across a flash flood and nearly lost their lives! From then onwards, the three of them were always together and beca lifelong friends.

Miao Ying then presud that, among the three old experts, there might be one who got into big trouble, perhaps causing the other two to help him resolve the problem. No one really knew yet, though…

Although there wasn’t much progress on the case, the sa trusty whiteboard now stood in the office again. From each channel, the information about the ancient tomb case had been added by various police detectives.

Actually, after a few reformation, there was a case analysis room that was specially designed with complete functionality, but the police detectives had already ford a habit and routine. Thus, they preferred to discuss the case around the whiteboard in the office.

As Zhao Yu had urgent matters to be solved, he couldn’t go through the information in detail as he ca before Zhang Jingfeng’s table. He asked him to help him check the exact location of Mister Lee from Flower Market Street. If he wasn’t at his flower shop, Zhao Yu would waste his ti going there.

“It can’t be?! Why would it be so?”

Zhang Jingfeng was stunned as he checked on Mister Lee’s handphone location, as Mister Lee was showing up as being right there, in their very own Rongyang Police Station!

“What is going on? Why is he in the police station?” Zhao Yu felt this was weird, too.

Zhang Jingfeng tapped on his keyboard to quickly find his exact location. “He just got out of Economic Investigation Departnt. I… I’ll ask… Hold on a minute!”

Zhang Jingfeng quickly made a call. He then found out that Mister Lee Xiusheng was there to?bail his nephew out.

When Zhang Jingfeng asked for his nephew’s na and situation, he then understood. Liu Xiusheng’s nephew was actually Li Xiaowei, and Li Xiaowei was Fat Sausage!

“Second Uncle!” Zhang Jingfeng finally connected the dots. “Li Xiusheng is Li Xiaowei’s second uncle. Li Xiaowei’s father passed away, so his second uncle is here to bail his nephew out!”

The Economic Investigation Departnt also told Zhang Jingfeng that, because Fat Sausage had much to do with an ongoing case, he couldn’t be bailed temporarily. So the person left without being able to do anything!

That’s interesting… Zhao Yu pondered this seriously. Who knew that Fat Sausage and Lee Xiusheng were related?!

The second uncle dealt with genuine cultural relics, while the nephew made counterfeits. It was like a perfect family chain business! Who knew if Li Xiusheng had any other nephews or nieces? Maybe, in the flower market, there was even more underground trading going on…

If so…..

I shall et them!

Then, Zhao Yu quickly told Zhang Jingfeng to send his exact location to him. He then went to the ammunition room to get a gun. After that, he drove the police car to chase after Li Xiusheng…..
