Chapter 1122: Chapter 1122: Foolproof Plan 10
Chen Zheng was instantly dumbfounded. “Could there be a mistake? Since He Teng was willing to co back, he must have hidden her securely. How could she have been found?”
“How could there be a mistake in this sort of matter? Over there in the capital, who doesn’t know how well Xing Ye and the others treated He Teng’s wife? This phone call was made personally by Xing Ye! Would Xing Ye use sothing like this to deceive He Teng? Think about it—so many people have been keeping an eye out to find He Zhilan. It’s no surprise she’s been discovered.” The elder commander shook his head. “Such a fine child, how could she be so unfortunate, gone just like that. The Gu Family is truly repugnant. No matter what, she was their own biological daughter. How could they just leave her to fend for herself? If the Gu Family had shown so backbone and taken their daughter back ho, would this ever have happened to her?”
“Hard to say,” Chen Zheng replied. “Given her situation, all she could do was hide—one day at a ti.”
The incident of He Zhilan’s murder eventually spread throughout the military. For a ti, even those who had previously been making snide remarks didn’t dare bring up He Zhilan’s matters anymore. After all, the dead should be respected, and He Zhilan’s death was so tragic. Speaking ill of her now would only highlight a truly rotten heart.
Among the families of the military personnel, while there were so who loved to gossip, none harbored malicious intentions. He Zhilan’s murder shocked and saddened everyone.
In the capital, He Teng had been personally escorted to the police station by a car arranged by Xing Ye. By the ti he got there, Lin Chan and the others had already arrived. Outside the station, a large group of journalists and onlookers, who had caught wind of the news, were gathered, hoping to uncover the details. However, they were all kept outside the station’s entrance, and none dared to force their way in.
As soon as He Teng stepped out of the car, he was imdiately surrounded by people. It took a trendous effort to break through, yet he still couldn’t get inside. Finally, with a darkened expression, He Teng turned toward the crowd and shouted angrily. While everyone stood montarily stunned, he took the chance to swiftly enter the police station.
“That must be He Zhilan’s husband, right? Back when they remarried, a photo of their backs in military uniforms was published in the papers. Did you see how terrifying his face looked just now? Seems like the news of He Zhilan’s murder is almost certainly true,” one reporter whispered.
“What do you an ‘almost certainly’? Let tell you—it’s definitely true! Do you know how close He Boss and Lin Boss’s group were? Did you see those cars over there? Those are all Lin Boss’s buddies’ cars, aning everyone’s here at the station. If it weren’t true, would they all have gathered here so early in the morning? Would He Boss’s husband have rushed from the military all the way here to the police station?”
“Then it must be true! I heard that while He Boss was in hiding, people were paid to take her life—30,000 yuan in total: 200,000 yuan from the Gu Family and 100,000 yuan from an unknown party. With that kind of money offered, soone was bound to take the job. Now we don’t know who pocketed that 300,000 yuan. A single life for 300,000 yuan—that’s more money than we ordinary folks would make in several lifetis. Killing soone just to make that much… they’ll never have to worry about money ever again.” A reporter who seed to know so details spilled all this out eagerly, his tone brimming with envy and longing when he ntioned the 300,000 yuan.
However, as soon as that reporter finished speaking, the crowd’s focus shifted to the shocking detail that the Gu Family had secretly offered 200,000 yuan to have their own biological daughter killed.
Faced with such news, most people found it hard to believe. Even those who were suspicious lacked the ans to investigate. Those who did have the ans didn’t dare to dig further, fearing they might stumble onto sothing that could cost them their lives instead. After all, they were rely reporters trying to eke out a living—none of them wanted to cross the Gu Family.
