Wang Lang said tentatively, “Director, the evidence in this case is insufficient. We want to gather more evidence before we can convict him.”
“What search? Don’t we have the video as evidence? What evidence do you need?” Yan Jing immediately questioned.
His cold and sharp gaze looked at Wang Lang. Wang Lang lowered his head and did not dare to look at the director.
Ruan Dong shook his head helplessly, “I feel that this matter should have been dealt with long ago. When we captured them that day, there were witnesses and physical evidence. The Black Magic Master also admitted it, but the Second Department refused to let it go. I had no choice.”
“Ruan Dong, you!” Wang Lang was shocked. He did not expect Ruan Dong to speak ill of him in front of the director.
He felt the director’s suspicious gaze and Wang Lang’s heart skipped a beat. “Director, I just want to follow the procedure. It’s not easy to investigate the real culprit of this case. It won’t be good if it’s leaked and the real culprit escapes. I just want to consider the confidentiality of the case.”
Wang Lang explained dryly. He knew that this answer was not very convincing, but it could only be so.
Yan Jing snorted coldly. “I understand. This case will be handled from today onwards. The real culprit must be investigated and found within three days. Otherwise, don’t even think about having a good time!”
“Yes!” Ruan Dong and Wang Lang said in unison.
Yan Jing continued: “Among the few people that the Black Magic Master wants to kill, there is the eldest grandson of Xiao Family, Xiao Family is paying close attention to this matter. The two of you will investigate the real culprit together, whoever finds out first will take over my position in the future.”
At the mention of the replacement position, Wang Lang was delighted, but he did not show it on his face.
“Yes!” Ruan Dong and Wang Lang replied in unison.
After walking out of the director’s office, Wang Lang mocked, “You’re quite capable.”
He heard that the Yu and Meng families had also come in the afternoon. Now, the Xiao family had also joined in just to investigate this case.
This must have something to do with Ruan Dong.
Ruan Dong smiled. “Thank you for letting me win!”
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Looking at Ruan Dong’s back, Wang Lang gritted his teeth and had a headache.
Wang Lang wanted to find the real culprit and get the position of director, but the Daoist Association had made it clear that they wanted to protect the person who had instructed Wu Zhen to commit the crime.
He was in a dilemma. Nothing he did was right.
If he could not find the real culprit, he would have to hand over the position of director to Ruan Dong.
Thinking of this, Wang Lang cursed Wu Zhen in his heart.
Wu Zhen was really too stupid! He clearly knew that the eldest grandson of the Xiao family was also there, so why did he continue to harm them?
Ruan Dong walked back to the department and immediately got someone to take Wu Zhen into the interrogation room. He got the best interrogator in the department to interrogate Wu Zhen repeatedly, not letting go of a single detail.
Ruan Dong sat outside the interrogation room and watched the scene.
In less than half a day, Wu Zhen confessed everything.
Wu Zhen sat on the stool and said with a long face, “It was all Mrs. Ye’s fault. She gave me a large sum of money and asked me to kill Yu Su with poisonous insects. At the same time, she also wanted me to kill the three sons of the Yu family and buried them with Yu Su! If Yu Su dies, no one will fight with her for her son, Ye Chang.”
He paused for a moment before continuing, “Mrs. Ye also said that if we encounter children from other aristocratic families, don’t let them off. Kill them all!”
Hearing this, Ruan Dong, who was outside the door, finally heaved a sigh of relief.
This time, Mrs. Ye would not be able to escape.
Wu Zhen’s eyes were red and his face was weak. Although no one had interrogated him for the past few days, he had been guarded and was not allowed to interact with others.
They even woke him up once every two hours to prevent him from falling into a deep sleep.
He looked visibly haggard.
“You can go back now,” the interrogator said when he saw the minister nod outside the door.
Ruan Dong immediately got someone to search for evidence of the transaction between Zhao Lan and Wu Zhen, focusing on Wu Zhen’s cell phone chat records and bank transfers.
Wu Zhen’s testimony also requires further verification.
Wang Lang had been silently observing the movements of the first department. When he saw that Ruan Dong had sent someone to investigate, he guessed that Wu Zhen must have confessed, but he did not know how much he had confessed.
Wang Lang took out his phone and sent a message to an unknown number. [Wu Zhen has confessed. The First Department is searching for evidence. What should we do next?]
Soon, the other party replied, [Calm down. Try your best to delay the speed of searching for evidence and wait for further instructions.]
Wang Lang replied: [Yes!]
At this moment, he also understood in his heart that Mrs. Ye might really be gone.
He could only delay for a while.
Not long after, another message was sent. [Kill Wu Zhen and leave clues about Yu Su on him.. Soon, Wu Zhen’s master will come to take revenge on Yu Su!]
