Chapter 3975 - 3963: Could It Be Related to Lee Yongjin?
Chapter 3975: Chapter 3963: Could It Be Related to Lee Yongjin?
About twenty minutes later, the interview ended.
Lee Yongjin glanced at Lin Yi, noticing he had no intention of leaving nor coming over to speak with her, guessing it might be inconvenient to talk due to outsiders being present.
"Principal Lin, the interview is over. Are there any additional questions?" Yue Sijing asked.
"No, everything’s fine. Let’s pack up and head back."
"Understood."
The three packed their things and left, while Lin Yi brought in the fruits and yogurt left outside.
"Thank you, Director Li, for agreeing to the interview. I brought you some gifts, hope you like them."
Lee Yongjin frowned, "What are these things."
"Apples and yogurt. Is your supply so lacking that you’ve never seen yogurt or apples? After I return, I’ll airlift some over. You’re already so wealthy, there’s no need to live such harsh days."
"I mean, what’s the point of giving me these shabby gifts? The Lingyun Group isn’t necessarily smaller than us. Aren’t these gifts a bit too stingy?"
"Look at you, why despise poverty and worship wealth? There’s an old saying: ’A goose feather sent from thousands of miles away brings light yet profound friendship.’ That’s what I also gift to my leaders."
"Alright, stop talking. You came all this way for a simple interview; there must be another reason."
"As expected of Director Li, your mind is more meticulous than others’.
Lin Yi closed the office door and locked it from the inside, then sat in front of Lee Yongjin.
"Zhao Minren, the person in charge of the Wuzhe Mountain Laboratory, went missing last night. The Jinshan Group is aware and has started deploying personnel to search for Zhao Renming."
"Zhao Renming actually disappeared!" Lee Yongjin looked at Lin Yi in surprise, "Could this be the work of overseas organizations?"
"You guessed right, but we still don’t know who it is."
"What do you need me to do?"
"Leverage your official connections a bit, help me inquire about any updates. Also, send some people to keep my team safe; there’s nothing else."
"No problem, but I need you to drag the Jinshan Group down. I don’t want them becoming our stumbling block."
"Deal."
Lee Yongjin checked the time, "What else do you need me to do?"
"Prepare a car for me, I need it now."
Lee Yongjin picked up the phone and called her secretary, asking them to prepare a car.
"I have a meeting, can’t chat with you now."
"Okay."
Lee Yongjin left, and shortly after, her secretary brought over the car keys and took Lin Yi to pick up the car.
Lin Yi drove the car to Yanchi Mental Hospital, where he found Yu Siying and the others.
"What’s the situation here?"
"As we suspected, last night we sneaked into the mental hospital and heard waves of screams, likely indicating the experiment has begun."
Yu Siying said:
"In addition, the amount of trash being transported here daily has increased significantly. We’ve followed and inspected; the trash mixed with cement was treated specially, yet we discovered some things—preliminary assessments suggest human tissue, and samples have been sent back to the country, results should be out soon."
"Looks like the experiment stage has begun. Organize all this info, especially the evidence chain; this will be very useful for us."
"Understood."
"You and Hu Zi stay here, Jianfeng come with me."
"Understood!"
Lin Yi took Shao Jianfeng and the two headed to Beiren Prison.
"How’s the situation here," Lin Yi asked.
"Generally speaking, it’s quite normal, but experiment equipment has been installed here; we suspect some experiments will be conducted here." Sui Qiang said.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and looked at Zhang Chaoyue.
"They must have a unified distributor for these devices. Investigate equipment details, compile a list, find out what types of experimental devices are involved."
"Understood."
After a few more instructions, Lin Yi took Xiao Bing away.
"Lin Bro, is there a new task?"
"I feel like the two deputy directors of the Wuzhe Mountain have already caught someone’s attention. We should keep an eye on them too." Lin Yi said:
"Soon you two will pair up, follow Su Zhuihui, and I’ll keep an eye on Song Yaguo."
"And after that? Just watch them?" Xiao Bing asked.
"Stop asking me, you two think about what would be best given the current situation." Lin Yi threw the question back.
Xiao Bing thought for a moment and said:
"I think we shouldn’t act. The situation here is like a powder keg, already ignited by Zhao Renming’s disappearance. Whoever touches it will explode. Let’s wait for overseas organizations to act, then take the opportunity to catch the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the sparrow behind."
"I agree with Bingbing’s idea. Mammon, Anglo, and Kaijie Group are the prime suspects, especially Mammon and Anglo. I think their actions here won’t be as subtle as we think. They might act when the time is right, given their strength, so we have a big chance to encounter these people."
Thinking further, Shao Jianfeng continued:
"But there’s a prerequisite: if they don’t get useful info from Zhao Renming, they won’t take the risk to attack the other two."
"In any case, Jinshan Group is a world-renowned conglomerate; if they lack even this bit of vigilance, they wouldn’t have reached today’s stature."
Both nodded silently, believing this possibility to be great.
"For now, follow your plan, keep an eye on them, and wait for the prey to get hooked," Lin Yi said.
"What if we discover the target’s whereabouts?" Xiao Bing asked, "Should we act?"
"Don’t act, just ensure your safety and try to follow them; I’ll instruct you on the next steps."
"Understood."
...
Jinshan Group, Vice President’s Office.
Knock knock—
A knock sounded, and shortly after, the door was pushed open, and Li Xueli walked in.
"President, things are more complex than we imagined; you may need to deploy some personnel."
"Hmm? Why deploy personnel?"
"To take care of those journalists."
Cui Shengguo looked at Li Xueli, displeased, "To deal with a few journalists, you need me to send people?"
"It’s like this: someone was already sent yesterday, but the opposing side was very skilled, and our people were all beaten by him." Li Xueli said:
"This is also why I suspect their identities aren’t merely journalists; they might be targeting us. So this matter can’t be delayed, it needs to be resolved swiftly."
