With the cannon fodder script in hand, it is easy for the king to change his fate

They couldn't get through to Shen Muyang and his group by phone, and there was no signal on the cruise ship either, as if it had completely disappeared on the sea. Of course, the police took it seriously as soon as they called the police.

When Chen Qing learned that there was no trace of the cruise ship and it seemed to have disappeared into the sea, she looked somewhat devastated.

Despite the police's reassurance that they would do their best, she was unable to calm down.

"Someone is targeting my son!"

"He is in danger, you must find him as soon as possible."

"You can't be late."

If you go too late, you'll probably only see her son's body, or you might not even find the body at all.

Her remaining rationality prevented Chen Qing from directly pointing out that Azhen was the one who did all this; her scarlet eyes were somewhat frightening.

She tried her best not to look at Qiao Zhen; if she did, she was afraid she would rush over and tear Qiao Zhen to pieces.

Breaking off relations at this point could affect their future plans.

A-Zhuang thought Chen Qing was quite patient; even at this point, she hadn't forgotten her plan.

Of course, she also realized that Chen Qing was on the verge of a complete breakdown. She had been gradually closing in on her, and Chen Qing would likely break down soon.

“Aunt Chen, the police are taking this very seriously. You should rest for a bit and don’t worry too much. Brother Muyang will definitely be alright,” A-Zhen said as she went over to comfort him.

If you were to ask Chen Qing how she feels right now, she'd probably say she wants to tear her to pieces.

Every word she said was like a brutal blow to Chen Qing's heart; no wonder the other person couldn't stand it.

Sure enough, when Chen Qing heard Azhen's voice, she suddenly looked up, her fierce gaze impossible to conceal.

Azhen naturally didn't suspect anything; on the surface, she only thought that the other party was worried about Shen Muyang.

Chen Qing remained silent, gripping her phone tightly. Every few minutes, she dialed Shen Muyang's number, trying to get through, but things didn't go as she hoped; the call never went through.

Tears welled in her red eyes, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she murmured Shen Muyang's name.

Azhen patted her back and gently comforted her.

One can imagine Chen Qing's current breakdown. She knows the truth but can't say anything, and she also has to worry about her youngest son.

Two hours passed, and there was still no news.

Shen Zhenxiong and Shen Muzhi also came over and sat with Chen Qing to wait for news.

They've stayed at the police station the whole time, hoping to get the news as soon as possible.

However, no signal from the cruise ship was ever detected, nor was any trace of it found on the sea; it seemed to have vanished into thin air.

This time it should work, right?

[My efforts in arranging this were worthwhile, though at a considerable cost. It seems the opportunities are better with Shen Muyang; as long as he leaves the house, there's a chance. Rong Yu's illness will heal soon, but to avoid trouble, he should continue living abroad. Otherwise, a sudden recovery would arouse suspicion and harm him.]

Upon hearing her words, the Shen family members all turned to look at Azhen.

Even though they knew she was the one who did it, they were still furious when they heard this.

Perhaps because too much time had passed, the Shen family felt that there was little hope, and a look of despair appeared on their faces.

Both Shen Zhenxiong and Shen Muzhi showed signs of struggle, but ultimately reason prevailed.

In their view, the situation had already become this way, and there was no point in making a scene now; they might as well pretend they didn't know and find another opportunity to deal with Qiao Zhen later.

So the father and son swallowed their anger.

But Chen Qing couldn't hold back any longer. She jumped up, glared fiercely at Azhen, and then shouted at the police officer, "I know who's behind this!"

Shen Muzhi and Shen Zhenxiong knew something was wrong and tried to pull Chen Qing away, but she forcefully shook them off. She rushed towards the police officers and said, seemingly insane, "I know who hijacked the cruise ship."

Everyone looked at her.

The police officer was only slightly surprised, not entirely unexpected, by Chen Qing's words.

After all, the Shen family isn't an ordinary family, so it's normal for their relatives to know some clues. They didn't say anything at first because these families all have their own secrets and definitely don't want this matter to escalate.

"Ms. Chen, don't worry, tell me slowly," the police officer reassured her.

Chen Qing suddenly looked at Azhen, her scarlet eyes like those of a monster, fierce and violent, as if she wanted to rush over and tear the person apart and devour them.

"It was Qiao Zhen, she kidnapped my son."

It must be her!

Before Chen Qing could say anything more, Shen Muzhi and Shen Zhenxiong stopped her, the father and son having already come up with a solution in that instant.

Shen Muyang is likely beyond saving, and it would be a loss to break ties with Qiao Zhen at this point.

Chen Qing had already spoken, and there was no way to take it back.

Therefore, the only explanation is that she suffered a mental breakdown due to her son's disappearance.

Her outburst might deter the police from believing her story, but they will still investigate Qiao Zhen.

Finding evidence is good; if not, then the Shen family still has a way out.

"Mom, what are you saying?" Shen Muzhi asked, puzzled, and pulled Chen Qing back. Shen Zhenxiong also grabbed her other arm and squeezed it hard, a signal to her not to say anything more.

Chen Qing closed her eyes in despair, feeling that Shen Muyang had already met with misfortune. If she dragged the entire Shen family into this mess, it would be much harder for Qiao Zhen to take revenge on her in the future, as Qiao Zhen would be on guard.

They really are a family.

She understood what the father and son meant.

"It's Qiao Zhen, it must be Qiao Zhen!" Chen Qing shouted like a madwoman. "Last time someone reported Qiao Zhen, saying that she was going to do something illegal. That time she secretly took my two sons to the manor. If someone hadn't reported her, my two sons might have met with misfortune."

“A while ago, she often ran into my two sons, always when they were drunk. What a coincidence! I suspect she did something. If we hadn’t stopped her, my two sons might have been harmed.”

Chen Qing's suppressed emotions erupted in that instant.

Given the recent whistleblowing, it's not surprising that she said these things; she's just like a mother desperately seeking any remedy.

Besides, the things she pointed out were indeed somewhat coincidental, and even without evidence, the police officers would try to investigate.

Chen Qing secretly hoped to find some evidence.

She felt that her youngest son was beyond saving, and her expression of utter despair certainly evoked sympathy.

After her initial shock, A-Zhen looked on in disbelief: "Aunt Chen, how could I harm Brother Muyang? Isn't there some misunderstanding?"

“I know you’re anxious, and I understand, but I definitely don’t want to see Brother Muyang get into trouble. If you don’t believe me, you can investigate.”

The investigation won't uncover anything. Ha, last time someone made a baseless accusation, and it somehow turned out to be somewhat accurate. But can I make them find evidence?

[So much time has passed, they've probably already started surgeries over there. Rongyu will recover soon.]

The accompanying unspoken thoughts infuriated the Shen family. (End of Chapter)
