Heavenly Ranking

Chapter 31 Investigation
Villa No. 21, Longhu Manor.

The Zhou family, representatives of several directors of Yue Dong Group, police officers, and other people in the villa were all gathered at the scene.

There were about thirty or forty people bustling about.

"Xu Shaoyang, you six were just waiting downstairs, yet you didn't notice anything. My father paid three million to bring you six here, and this is how you take responsibility for his personal safety?!"

Inside a room, a young man who looked to be in his late twenties was sternly reprimanding a man in his thirties.

Despite the man's large and strong physique, he dared not utter a word in rebuttal after being reprimanded by the young man.

At that moment, a woman who looked to be about forty years old and exuded a mature charm, and a boy who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old walked in.

Seeing the young man reprimanding Xu Shaoyang, he frowned and said, "Zhou Fang, what's done is done. The most important thing now is to find the murderer immediately and make him pay for what he did in blood!"

The man called Zhou Fang squinted at the woman.

Ran Qing.

His stepmother was a strong and domineering woman.

Zhou Heng's high position and wealth of hundreds of millions in Yuedong Group are largely due to her and her family's influence. As a result, she often acts arrogantly and bosses people around in the family because of her achievements.

"The murderer must be found, but professional matters should be left to professionals. We outsiders should not interfere."

Zhou Fangdao.

The "outsider" mentioned was clearly a specific person.

“Zhou Fang, your father is dead. If we can’t rely on ourselves, who can we rely on? If you don’t want to continue investigating this matter, I will! My husband can’t die without knowing why!”

Ran Qing spoke with conviction.

"Oh, so what have you been doing now?"

Zhou Fang said calmly.

"I've mobilized my connections and investigated everyone Zhou Heng has offended over the years. Not one of them will escape!"

Ran Qing said in a strong and clear voice.

Zhou Fang frowned.

His father has quite a few rivals, some of whom they can't afford to offend. If Ran Qing investigates indiscriminately, she might bring trouble upon herself.

At that moment, a man in uniform came out of the house with his subordinates.

Seeing this, Zhou Fang quickly went to greet him: "Captain Zhang, how is it?"

"It's not certain yet. I'll go pick up Young Master Su."

The man, referred to as Captain Zhang, replied and hurried downstairs.

"Fourth Young Master Su?"

Zhou Fang was taken aback.

The only person who could command such respect from Captain Zhang Ming, who was a prominent figure in the Public Security Bureau and even had a chance to become the deputy director, and who was addressed as the Fourth Young Master Su, was Su Zhen, the fourth son of Su Hai, the head of the Baisha Group.

Compared to Yuedong Group, whose market value is only 15 billion, Baisha Group's market value exceeds 400 billion!
Of these, the various branches of the Su family accounted for one-third.

Compared to a behemoth like the Su family, the Zhou family is nothing more than a minor player.

With the arrival of Su Si Shao, a figure of great importance in the Su family, Zhou Fang and Ran Qing dared not be negligent in the slightest and quickly went downstairs to greet him.

Soon, surrounded by a group of people, including several board members of Yuedong Group and two of Zhou's uncles who held considerable power within the group, a man who looked to be in his mid-twenties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and appearing quite refined, went upstairs.

"According to our investigation, the perpetrator not only has a solid foundation in martial arts, but should also be proficient in mental techniques..."

Inside the house, Zhang Ming from the Public Security Bureau gave an introduction, and finally said, "Our experience is no longer applicable to crimes involving mental systems, so we can only ask Young Master Su for help..."

"Ah."

Su Zhen responded and went directly to Zhou Heng's body to examine it.

During this time, two people not far from Zhou Fang whispered to each other: "I originally thought that Young Master Su would just send someone over randomly, but I didn't expect him to come in person."

"I can feel the pressure from that person at Star Shield Group. I need to get out there more often and make my presence felt."

The other person responded.

Zhou Fang ignored him and quickly went inside, saying with a hint of flattery, "Young Master Su, please feel free to ask for anything. The Zhou family will be extremely grateful."

"Any clues?"

Su Zhen ignored Zhou Fang and turned to look at Zhang Ming.

Zhang Ming remained silent, but Ran Qing, eager to impress Su Zhen, handed over a list: "I've used my connections to find thirteen suspicious individuals. Please take a look, Young Master Su."

"You found out?" Zhang Ming frowned.

Ran Qing clearly found the information but didn't hand it over to him immediately.
Su Zhen didn't speak, took the documents, glanced at them, and frowned.

He handed the information directly to one of his assistants: "Check their social connections, the reasons for their feuds, and whether they have connections with people with psychic abilities."

Clearly, he had no faith in the Zhou family's intelligence capabilities.

"Yes."

The assistant responded and quickly went off to work.

A dozen minutes later, he returned and handed over a document.

Su Zhen glanced around, his gaze lingering briefly on the thirteenth person, a beginner-level mental ability user named "Ji Fuyou".

Before his death, Zhou Heng ordered his sister to be kidnapped.

Furthermore, he had been seen outside Longhu Manor before Zhou Heng's death.

only……

A beginner-level mental ability user?
At this moment, Zhang Ming, who had been searching the area outside, walked back in and said with a smile, "Young Master Su, have you found anything?"

Su Zhen pondered for a moment, then finally said, "Didn't you already have a result?"

He said calmly, "I was old and still staying up so late, so I had a heart attack that led to my sudden death."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Fang, Ran Qing, and Zhou Heng's older and younger brothers were all taken aback.

Even Zhang Ming was somewhat surprised: "Young Master Su, did he really die suddenly?"

"Didn't you already have some suspicions about why you invited me here?"

Su Zhen responded calmly.

“In this respect, we are naturally not as professional as Young Master Su.”

Zhang Ming smiled and continued, "Since Young Master Su has confirmed it, then the case can be closed. It is indeed true that Mr. Zhou was advanced in years and maintained a high-intensity work schedule, coupled with years of staying up late, which led to a myocardial infarction and his unfortunate passing..."

"and many more!"

At this moment, Zhou Fang couldn't help but step forward and interrupt: "Captain Zhang, this is clearly a murder! My father was broken into and killed inside the house, and many traces prove this! How could it be a sudden death!?"

"When President Zhou passed away, many people entered the house to carry out rescue operations, which destroyed the crime scene. Those traces may not have been left by the murderer."

Zhang Ming explained patiently.

"Impossible. The security personnel we hired are highly professional; they couldn't possibly be unaware of the importance of protecting the scene..."

Zhou Fang said emphatically, "This must have been a murder! And the murderer used mental techniques to induce my father's myocardial infarction; the method was extremely cruel! Our Zhou family will definitely investigate this to the end!"

"We've already said he died suddenly, how much more do you want to investigate!"

Zhang Ming frowned.

"If the police won't investigate, we'll investigate ourselves! Justice will prevail! My father cannot have died in vain!"

Zhou Fang spoke with righteous indignation.

He must raise the flag!
Only in this way can we gain the greatest benefit in the inheritance dispute with Ran Qing and the two uncles after Zhou Heng's death!
"Go check it out. Based on my judgment, the person who made the move is most likely a high-level mental ability user!"

Su Zhen said somewhat impatiently.

A high-level mental ability user!?

Zhou Fang's righteous words suddenly froze.

Ran Qing, along with the other two Zhou family leaders, also had their pupils shrink dramatically.

"A sub-advanced level mental ability user!?"

The jokes about that powerful clan in Chiyang City, the capital of Chuzhou, were known to everyone in Xingguang City.

A senior-level mental ability user easily caused the other party to lose billions without the other party even knowing it.

This kind of thing would be a joke if it happened to someone else, but if it happened to you...

The thought alone sends chills down my spine.

Even powerful families with assets worth tens of billions couldn't stop the small Zhou family...

Even Yuedong Group, if the other party wanted to, had a hundred ways to destroy them!
"I advise you to be sensible. Since the other party doesn't intend to kill you all, let's just leave it at that. If you continue to make trouble, in the end, it won't just be Zhou Heng who dies in your Zhou family."

Su Zhen snorted coldly, then turned and left.
