Chapter 920 892: Hidden Truth Behind the Clues

Guang Lingyi stared in surprise at Xiao Lin; he hadn't written down this detail. He did find some clues, but they were so obscure that they left very few traces. "Chief Prosecutor Guang, shouldn't you be more candid?"

"I can only say that the insiders who knew about it all died one after another! The clues that could be found also became increasingly erased due to these deaths, and when Yao Zheng was executed, the evidence was already destroyed."

"Ah!" Xiao Lin let out his usual voice of realization. No wonder this guy seemed so rebellious upon meeting them; it turns out there was a reason. "I think I understand why the old man let you handle the case. There's another layer of meaning here. I'm happy to collaborate with you, and I'll resolve the issue of authority; that'll suffice, right?"

"Let's see if you can handle this first!" Guang Lingyi dismissively slapped away Xiao Lin's outstretched hand. If it weren't for these two people, would he have been so passive and troubled? They acted without considering consequences, which was irritating. "I'll head back to the prosecutor's office; I have reports to submit. I'll await your update at this time tomorrow."

"Less than twenty-four hours; aren't you being too harsh?" Hua Qingyi exclaimed loudly. Who does this person think they are dealing with? Without even investigating what the authority truly is, they impose a time limit—this is outright making it difficult.

"Knowing time is short means you should hurry!"

"Damn it, this guy changes his face faster than flipping a book, almost as quickly as a woman." Hua Qingyi angrily kicked the coffee table. He's infuriated, constantly infuriated, though he admits he appreciates Guang Lingyi, it doesn't mean he agrees with the person.

"Why get angry at a stepping stone?" The flippant words carried no disdain, as Xiao Lin smiled at the closed door. "The old man is using him to make us realize our shortcomings, isn't he?"

Hua Qingyi blinked rapidly and soon grasped Xiao Lin's meaning, though still unwillingly. "Director Xu, put everything we just sorted out on the projector."

"Okay!" Xu Ming listed the related regulations, rearranged them, and displayed them on the screen. "I have an idea I want to express."

"Director Xu, feel free to share your thoughts."

"Regarding the land case just mentioned by Chief Prosecutor Guang, I have materials from the land planning department that I took along when Shen Yixing was captured, which might be of some help to you. I've looked into it carefully, but there's no information on a third participant. In the auction, around four or five out of the first-stage bidders entered the second stage, including the Ma Family. However, given the Ma Gang's recent emergence at the time, they couldn't handle the land case in terms of influence and finances. So, I wonder if there's some backroom operation here, but in the end, only the Xia and Wang Families fought against each other, which is a bit odd, and I'm confused."

After Xu Ming finished speaking, he cautiously glanced at the two silent people in front of him, fearful of overstepping.

"Anything else?" Xiao Lin looked at Xu Ming's expression amusingly and lit a cigarette. "Director Xu should have discovered more than this!"

"Ah, do you think what I said makes sense?"

"No!" Hua Qingyi deliberately shouted, grabbing the cigarette just lit by Xiao Lin and taking several puffs. "Nonsense, completely illogical."

"Haha, Director Xu, you continue. Don't mind this guy; he's just throwing a tantrum."

"Uh, okay." Xu Ming's forehead was sweating. He opened his mouth only to realize he'd forgotten what to say, losing the prepared thoughts. "I don't remember!"

"Has it been almost a year since you started dating Xia Xue? Wasn't it during their lowest period when you met Xia Xue? Did the Wang Family use this to force Xia Xue into marrying Fatty Wang?" Hua Qingyi rudely laughed but continued from Xu Ming's words.

"Time aligns perfectly," Xiao Lin nodded, gesturing for Xu Ming to sit and rest. "The land case was decided from the start to be with the Wang Family, but it ultimately ended up with Hengfei Group. I suspect the Wang Family wasn't the only one losing out; there might be another layer of interest entanglement."

"The Wang Family leveraged the land deal to make the Xia Family owe a substantial sum, then immediately proposed a partnership through marriage, with the real goal being 'Rhein,' incidentally getting the beauty as well." Hua Qingyi wrote this condition on the board and circled the Wang Family.

"Guang Lingyi said there were three families in the auction; I think it should be four. The agreement was reached by three families, with the Wang Family taking the lead, getting tricked by Yao Zheng in the deal."

"Wrong!" Xu Ming raised his hand, interrupting Hua Qingyi's analysis. "There's a place I don't understand: if the Wang Family was tricked, then how did they gain benefits from the criminal group under Yao Zheng in those subsequent cases?"

"In this land deal, the Xia Family lost the worst and was framed by the Wang Family. The Wang Family gained profits from smuggling drugs. Yao Zheng and Hengfei profited from land construction, but what did the Ma Family gain?" Xiao Lin circled the Ma Family. "Start investigating from the Ma Family; all relationships within the Horse Gang must be thoroughly understood."

Xu Ming received the assignment and rushed out with his subordinates, leaving only Xiao Lin and Hua Qingyi in the office.

"There was one thing you didn't say just now!" Hua Qingyi sat on the couch while Xiao Lin kept looking at the fifth case, not paying attention to the person behind.

"What?"

"Permission!"

"Ah! I'm thinking about this issue, it's a bit difficult to handle." Xiao Lin sighed again.

"The old man initially held evidence concerning Wang Zhanting's land case. When we dealt with Fatty Wang, he personally handed it to Wang Zhanting, remember?"

"Yes, at that time he indeed backed down because of this, and forced Wang Zhantian to cease his actions, what's up?"

"Don't play dumb with me!" Hua Qingyi extinguished the cigarette in his hand and walked behind Xiao Lin. "The case in the northern district has come to a close, but the embezzlement of city renovation funds by Yao Zheng was never examined, was it?"

"Yes, I know, so?"

"You should already understand." Hua Qingyi felt his throat dry up as he spoke, his Adam's apple moving up and down as if it was difficult to say those words, but he had to. "This matter is related to my father."

Xiao Lin turned around, his dark eyes locked onto Hua Qingyi's face. "Is it difficult to say this sentence? Can you believe it?"

"The Hua Family shouldn't be tainted by this filth."

"That's right!" Xiao Lin smiled. "Elder Hua wouldn't disgrace himself over this small amount of money."

"So this is aimed at our Hua Family?"

Xiao Lin nodded. "Actually, if you look carefully, every trail ultimately points to your Hua Family. Who exactly has your elder offended, willing to spend so many years to set up this trap?"

"It should be the same person!" Initially thinking he could observe this issue from the fringes, but now it seems not so much the case! Xiao Lin might have encountered the most direct way, whereas for their Hua Family, it's rather a covert suppression. "The opponent seems to understand our families' way of doing things well, employing different methods, intending to eradicate us all and the power might be above the Hua Family; pressing you is a provocation to openly confront the Xiao Family, so they would certainly eliminate the Hua Family first."

"It seems the legal route isn't viable, might as well let Wang Zhanting live a bit longer, really makes me super upset." Xiao Lin threw the pen in his hand onto the table, casually cleared all the photos on the computer, even cleaned up the buffer thoroughly.

"What about Guang Lingyi? He doesn't seem like someone who would let go." Hua Qingyi was a bit worried.

"Although he is a stepping stone that your Hua elder inserted among us, pushing us onto the path, he is not as clean and upright as we imagined." After speaking, Xiao Lin curled his lips, but he didn't smile. Mocking in front of the flawless projector screen.

While driving and rubbing his stomach, Guang Lingyi suddenly felt a chill down his spine, almost slipping up. If it weren't for remembering what the old fellow had said, he would have responded aggressively just now. It's the first time in his life getting hit, truly hurts his pride! But that power shouldn't be underestimated, facing it directly still uncertain who dominates whom, indeed the old fellow was right, the most difficult to deal with between the two is Xiao Lin, hopefully, his little life will remain till the end, or else he would truly suffer a loss.

The phone kept buzzing, today not in the mood to answer calls. Guang Lingyi glanced without looking and pressed the button, not long after it rang again, this time like a talisman persistently calling.

"Had better be urgent, or wait for me to skin you." A vicious threat completely mismatched his respected Chief Prosecutor identity, a terrifying dual persona!

"Little Guang, I heard you met those two boys today, and had a long private talk, right?"

"Ah, Secretary Hua! Why aren't you resting so late?" Immediately switching to a respectful tone, Guang Lingyi overtook one car after another while driving.

"Effortless conversion couldn't deceive those two persons, did you screw up anything today?" The voice on the phone sounded like the owner reprimanding a pet for damaging furniture, simultaneously stroking fluffy ears while fiercely questioning.

"Shouldn't be exposed that quickly, right!" Guang Lingyi asked unhappily, he thought he hid really well!

"Ah, not so, but you left suspicion with them, might be discovered soon, for now handle Wang Zhantian's case, don't bother with Wang Zhanting for now."

"No way!"

"Ah! A wolf in sheep's clothing, is it preparing to show its claws?" Hua Muyun laughed heartily on the other end of the phone, barking dogs don't bite, most feared are those quiet ones who might bite you from behind at any time. (To be continued.
