Reborn 1980 Married to the toughest guy in the army

Jiang Wan looked around and saw that there weren't many people here, so she said, "I believe you know everything that happened to the Seven Star Family."

Jin Xican was a little surprised by Jiang Wan's straightforwardness.

He never expected that this woman would play it so straight.

He was still wondering whether he should exchange a few pleasantries, or start the conversation with some other topic so as not to be too abrupt.

After a moment of hesitation, he quickly replied, "Yes, I understand."

Jiang Wan continued, "Since you already know, I'll be straight with you. I don't want to go into any more bewildering details."

Jin Xican swallowed his saliva. He suddenly felt a sense of admiration for Jiang Wan's straightforwardness.

He smiled, picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip, taking this opportunity to adjust his posture.

As the heir of the Jin family, he knew very well that when negotiating with an opponent, he could not be suppressed in every way, nor could he follow the other party's rhythm. Otherwise, he would be at a disadvantage.

This sip of coffee calmed his mood.

Break free from the aura created by Jiang Wan and turn passivity into initiative.

When he put down the coffee, he turned back into the decisive criminal investigation captain in the police station.

"Since Ms. Rose has mentioned this, let's talk frankly."

"Was Ms. Rose the trigger for what happened at the Seven Stars Group yesterday?"

Jiang Wan said frankly: "Yes, it's me."

"No! To be exact, it's a bodyguard I hired."

"Strictly speaking, I'm also confused. I don't even know why that prince came to see me."

"Unfortunately, he was beaten to death before he could see me and say what he wanted to say."

"I am innocent too."

Jiang Wan spoke innocently, but Jin Xican wouldn't believe it.

He was silent for a moment and then asked, "Then Ms. Jiang Wan, what is your purpose in coming to see me today?"

Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow and looked at him, then asked, "Didn't you ask me to call you and tell you that you needed my help with something important?"

Jin Xican simply asked a very pointed question: "Why didn't you contact me when you first arrived in Kyoto?"

Jiang Wan sighed, put down the coffee in her hand and said, "What can I say!"

"When you gave me your business card and asked me to come see you, I didn't really want to come."

"Then I heard that you had a case that you wanted me to help solve. I thought it was just an old case."

"After all, you didn't seem anxious when you told me that. So, I won't be anxious either."

"I have my own things to do when I get to Kyoto."

"Since I'm going to be leaving Kyoto soon, I decided to contact you before I leave."

"It only takes about 10 minutes to look over the case files. There's no need to waste too much time."

At this point, her tone became more agitated and helpless, and she continued:

"After what happened yesterday, I wasn't sure if I could leave Kyoto. So I thought I'd finish this matter with you first."

"I always have to do what I promised to others. I don't like to owe others."

Jiang Wan expressed her thoughts in a few words, leaving Jin Xican speechless.

Because everything Jiang Wan said made sense, even he couldn't find any fault with it.

He couldn't help but curl his lips and smiled, "As expected of an expert in criminal investigation, you are truly impeccable."

"That's awesome."

"In that case, please follow me to our Jin family, Ms. Rose. My father will tell you the details."

Jiang Wan waved her hand and said, "Don't worry, let's negotiate the price first."

"First, give me a rough outline of what kind of case you're trying to solve? Are you looking for the victim or the murderer?"

Jin Xican whispered: "At this point, I have nothing to hide. He is an elder in my family."

"He was already quite old and in poor health. He wanted to reflect on his troubled life alone before he died."

"But he forgot that he had something important to tell you."

"He wants to lock himself in a secret room to study carefully and write his will."

"We were all waiting for him to sort out his thoughts and then see what would happen next. But we didn't expect him to disappear without a trace after leaving."

"The secret room he entered had only one exit, which was the door. There were no other secret rooms within the secret room. He never came out after entering."

"When we managed to break down the door to the secret room, there was no one inside. He disappeared."

"My idea is very simple. All you need is for you to go to the scene and find the key to this secret room and the clues to the missing person."

"If you can help us find that person, whether dead or alive, we will reward you handsomely."

Jiang Wan raised an eyebrow, stirring the coffee unconsciously with the stirring spoon in her hand.

After a moment, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Jin Xican and asked, "That man is your grandfather, right?"

Jin Xican was stunned.

Jiang Wan was silent for a moment before continuing, "Is it because your grandfather didn't have time to write a will, and more importantly, didn't have time to pass on your Jin family's heirloom?"

"You were pretending to be looking for your grandfather's whereabouts. You were actually looking for those important items from the Jin family, right?"

After Jiang Wan said these words, Jin Xican was completely stunned.

He didn't expect Jiang Wan to be so smart.

He just gave the beginning, but Jiang Wan could think of so much.

He never said what he wanted.

Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and glanced at him indifferently. She said in a flat voice, "Is it that hard to guess?"

"Your grandfather disappeared in the secret room, and it's not just one or two days."

"I also investigated some things about the Jin family before I came here."

"As far as I know, there was an incident in the Jin family 20 years ago."

"This incident caused your family to suffer heavy losses. Not long after, your grandfather disappeared."

"At that time, your family caused quite a stir, almost turning the entire capital upside down, but they still couldn't find him."

"After that, your Jin family started to keep a low profile and was no longer as ostentatious as before."

"It's rare for you to hold a seat among the four major families over the years."

"But even so, the family began to decline. I guess important family items disappeared along with your grandfather, such as the key to the treasure house."

"If the Seven Star Family had not emerged, one of the four major families would have needed to be eliminated, and that would undoubtedly have been your Jin Family."

"So based on this information, there is no problem in my making the above judgment."

Jin Xican smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "Ms. Rose is really smart. I have to admit that you guessed it right."

After a pause, he continued, "What disappeared with my grandfather was indeed the key to the treasure house. The treasure house contains all the reserve funds of my Jin family."
