"It was Chen Yan who told you, when you unintentionally discover sothing, don't rush to use or validate it."
"Use it at the most appropriate ti to maximize its value, right?"
Chen Xiao was asking, but he didn't actually need Li Jindao to answer.
"That's indeed his style, though I'm not sure now if the one I saw was really him."
"But from that notebook, I can clearly sense that his greatest skill is understanding human nature and using it!"
"At that ti, he surely knew what you most desired inside, but he couldn't predict the future either. He only knew to advise you to keep everything you found well-protected, and the more important it was, the more patience you needed!"
"However, I am certain that after Lian Yuhong's death, he contacted you."
Li Jindao's eyes were filled with intense caution.
There was even a trace of astonishnt that he couldn't conceal.
"Turns out you know him so well!"
Chen Xiao showed no change in expression, and simply said:
"When you say that, it also ans the one we caught is not the real Chen Yan!"
Chen Xiao looked at Li Jindao, who took a deep breath and said:
"I don't know who you caught, but indeed, as you guessed, I did receive a call from Chen Yan after Lian Yuhong's death."
"On the phone, he told
there would be a detective from Dongzhou who would definitely investigate the Yang Lake Phantom Case from twelve years ago, and that person is you. He also told
that I have no ability to resist in front of you."
"There's only one way, just a sliver of hope, to be reborn from a dead end. That way is to send myself into prison. Only then can major issues beco minor and minor issues beco trivial."
Hearing this, Chen Xiao couldn't help but feel deeply shocked.
Looking at Li Jindao, he asked, "Did you tell him that Gu Rong drove Lian Yuhong to her death?"
"Yes, at that ti Gu Rong had already told
everything. I think he also saw those ssages online, and then he called . I was surprised to get his call. I never thought that after so many years, a friend from the past would contact
again."
"What does he look like?" Chen Xiao asked.
Li Jindao grinned; "Whether I say it or not doesn't matter much to
anymore. Besides, he did help
and I am grateful to him. He knows
well, while you don't. He knows that I repay kindness, so your asking is useless."
Chen Xiao smiled: "If that's the case, why do you still reveal information about Chen Yan to ?"
"I just refuse to believe it. I refuse to believe that Chen Xiao, who he claid to be so invincible, is really that smart! Now I believe it, you really are remarkable!"
Chen Xiao didn't feel overly proud because of Li Jindao's words.
On the contrary, he could now sense an invisible pressure surrounding him.
The captured Chen Yan, he might be Chen Yan, but he was definitely not the owner of that notebook.
Or perhaps, Chen Yan might not refer to a person, but a group of people!
Chen Xiao didn't know the purpose of the notebook's owner, but he could be sure that he was keen on pushing soone whose heart had shown a dark side towards the abyss of murder!
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao couldn't help but sigh:
"What has he been through to beco such a person? And what he experienced might be what many others have experienced."
"Just like the Chen Yan caught in Qingxi wanted to save Lou Yang, perhaps not for any benefit, but to gain so sort of spiritual solace?"
Chen Xiao said, but in reality, he didn't quite understand Chen Yan's psychology.
He was just using his own thoughts to get closer to the person nad Chen Yan!
Seeing Chen Xiao lose interest in him, Li Jindao also sighed:
"I've lost completely, but I've also been comfortable for more than ten years. But as for you, Chen Xiao, if you haven't found Chen Yan, you might be uneasy at heart, right? Everyone has their own dark side, just like
back then wanting to get rid of Xie Yan at all tis."
"Once he targets soone, he will surely draw out all the darkness inside them. Chen Xiao, in my feeling, it shouldn't be long before you truly et him!"
Chen Xiao didn't speak, silently glanced at Li Jindao, then turned and left.
After leaving the interrogation room, Lin Xi seed worried: "Chen Xiao, that person has set his sights on you, so should we bring mom and dad here from the countryside?"
Chen Xiao felt that such worries were reasonable.
But intuition told him that Chen Yan wouldn't do sothing so unskilled.
Chen Yan was most fond of watching soone turn dark.
So if Chen Yan really targeted him, then Chen Yan would seek out everyone who harbored negative feelings toward him or the Chen Family.
Old Chen and mom lived an honest life. In Chen Xiao's view, no one would target them.
Only Chen Xiao, having been through so many cases, might have people who hate him.
The most obvious was Chen Xu, who Chen Xianzu had been raising all along!
This person needed to be watched continuously.
Chen Xiao wouldn't blindly trust his guesses, because if he's wrong, his family would be in danger!
Such hidden threats are what Chen Xiao will not allow to explode!
"After a while, let's bring mom and dad here, and your parents too, we can all have a family reunion."
Lin Xi smiled and nodded, hooking onto Chen Xiao's arm, saying: "What's your decision about that Chen Yan in Dongzhou?"
"It's quite obvious that he's not the one we're looking for. But he himself committed cris, so I don't think there's a need to et him. Because, he would surely be like Li Jindao, unwilling to reveal anything."
"True." Lin Xi nodded and then hugged Chen Xiao tight, laughed and said: "You don't have to worry too much. There's no direct conflict between you and that Chen Yan. You are just mutually interested in each other at this point."
Chen Xiao hmm'd: "No need to pay attention to anything else for the ti being. What's a bit troubleso is that with future cases, I suspect he might intervene, and that would make even a simple case especially troubleso."
"Ignore him, you'll definitely be busy soon."
"Yes, as long as the police announce the Yang Lake Phantom Case is closed, Dragon Cauldron must seize the opportunity to win that pri land in Yang Lake! Once we succeed, my mission in Shencheng City will be complete."
Hearing Chen Xiao's words, Lin Xi's face was full of pride:
"Who could have imagined that my husband, who not long ago was wandering aimlessly on the streets, is now able to run a large enterprise like Dragon Cauldron."
"Husband, it's all so dreamy!"
In response, Chen Xiao pinched Lin Xi, and asked with a smile: "Dreamy? Does it still feel dreamy now?"
