“Well…” Looking at Li Fei’s drawing, Cui Lizhu bit her lips and thought for a long time, then she shook her head helplessly. “I really can’t recall having seen this man. Li Fei… Did Li Fei draw this?”

“Yes.” Zhao Yu nodded. “Li Fei said that when he and your father were planning to steal the Tamil Star, he accidentally saw your father speaking to this man in secret in the middle of the night.”

Cui Lizhu’s eyes were still red. “Oh… I can’t believe that you trust Li Fei,” she said. “You know what he is like now. And as he said, it was midnight. Do you think he could have seen clearly in the dark? And even draw what he had seen?”

“We cracked the Headless Female Corpses Case. I had interrogated Li Fei in person. Although his confession was incomplete and the timeline he had given for the crime was confusing, he provided the basic facts. Those were consistent,” Wu Xiumin said. “Moreover, his fragmented memory was more trustworthy than someone telling a complete story. So, I think what he said was not made up.”

“But…” Cui Lizhu looked at Li Fei’s drawing and shook her head. “This man, I really don’t know him.”

Wu Xiumin looked at the drawing and said, “I didn’t know that Li Fei is so good at drawing. Look at his lines. He’s professional. Team leader…” She turned to Zhao Yu and asked, “Do you want me to send this portrait to Zeng Ke and ask him to help identify this man?”

“You don’t need to do that. I’ll do it,” Zhang Jingfeng said. “I used to work in the Missing Persons Department. I have the facial recognition software we would need here.”

“Oh…” Zhao Yu said. He quickly introduced Wu Xiumin and Zhang Jingfeng to each other, and they shook hands.

“Leader Zhao, wait a minute…” Xu Hai suddenly said to Zhao Yu. “I feel… The portrait looks familiar to me. Wait…” As he said that, he shouted to Liu Zhanbing, “Zhanbing, come and have a look, hurry up…”

Right then, Liu Zhanbing was trying to call the Bailing police to look for Flying Squirrel Gao. He quickly put down the phone and came to check the drawing as Xu Hai asked him. “Hey? This is…” As Liu Zhanbing looked at the big screen, he frowned and thought for a while, then said, “This man looks like…”

“What is the name?” Xu Hai urged him.

“Don’t you remember?” Liu Zhanbing asked. “When we followed Leader Wu to look for the Tamil Star, we investigated this man. At that time, we thought he was the mysterious buyer of that gem.”

“Oh… Yes, yes…” Xu Hai suddenly remembered the man and said to Zhao Yu, “Leader Zhao, we did investigate this man before. At that time, we thought he was the buyer, but later, because AK’s Chinese agent was killed, our investigation came to a dead end. What’s his name?”

“His name is Meng Youbin,” Ma Jichun said. Before Liu Zhanbing finished, Ma Jichun from the Secret Service had opened the door and come in.

“Huh?” All of the people in the office were shocked. They had no idea how Ma Jichun knew his name.

“Group leader Zhao. Look at this.” Ma Jichun came to Zhao Yu quickly, took out his mobile phone out, and handed it to Zhao Yu. “We just found this,” he said. “We have investigated this man before.”

Zhao Yu opened his eyes wide. He was shocked by the Secret Service’s working efficiency. Also, no one had told Li Jing about Li Fei’s drawing. Zhao Yu looked at the big screen then realized that Li Jing was probably monitoring the video call the whole time. The Secret Service was everywhere. What surprised Zhao Yu the most was that the Secret Service was able to find the man’s information so quickly. He wondered if Meng Youbin was the mole in the Secret Service? Was he Tao Xiang’s mysterious accomplice? However, after reading what Ma Jichun gave him, he finally understood the truth. He was wrong.

“Meng Youbin sells information for a living,” Ma Jichun said. “At that time, he was in charge of a huge private intelligence organization that covered many secretive, illegal fields. In the beginning, we suspected that other governments might be supporting him, which seriously affected our national security. So, four years ago, with the National Security Bureau and other departments, we took joint action to crack down on them, attack their dens, and arrest hundreds of individuals suspected of doing illegal intelligence work.”

Zhao Yu was surprised. “Incredible. What about later? What happened to him?” he asked.

“When we were about to catch several key figures of the intelligence organization, we found that they had died in a fire. It’s a pity that we don’t have a way to identify Meng Youbin, so we can’t confirm whether he was included in those deaths,” Ma Jichun answered.

“Obviously, they were killed for something they knew,” Zhao Yu said.

“Yes, we haven’t given up on this, and we are still trying to find out the reason of the fire,” Ma Jichun told Zhao Yu. “However, since the fire, his intelligence organization and the support behind them have disappeared.”

Li Beini frowned and sighed, saying, “This case is much more complicated than I had thought.” Li Beini meant that this was not something that they could handle alone. They shouldn’t have participated in this.

“Intelligence organization…” Zhao Yu frowned and said, “although this seemed like a very powerful organization, we can’t connect it with the treasure. It’s possible that Meng Youbin and Tao Xiang just worked together on getting Tamil Star.”

“We don’t know,” Ma Jichun said. “Leader Zhao, no matter if it’s the treasure or the gem, or the cases Tao Xiang had done before, these thefts obviously have something in common. Have you ever thought about how Tao Xiang got this secret information that ordinary people don’t know anything about?”

This thought inspired Zhao Yu. He nodded and said, “Now the five experts have been killed. There must be an unknown dark power behind this whole thing.”

“If my father’s list is from this intelligence organization, this intelligence organization has a clear connection with the death of the five experts,” Cui Lizhu said, speculating. “After all, apart from the Secret Service and my father, only this intelligence organization knew about the list.” She pulled Zhao Yu’s arm, saying timidly, “Boss. My sixth sense is right. When we dug out the box, I felt like something important was going to happen.”

Zhao Yu had the same feeling. At that moment, he felt a trace of regret over taking this case. From what he had at present, his enemy this time was much stronger than Cheng Lingfei.

Cheng Lingfei had almost ruined his reputation and killed him, what was this enemy capable of?
