From abandoned baby to CEO

Zhao Lexi was much more naive than Shang Shiguo and Zhao Xingdi. She had never seen such a scene before. After a few rounds of questioning, she broke down the interrogator's defenses and easily subdued him.

The interrogation of Zhao Lexi proceeded exceptionally smoothly, and she described in detail how Shi Guofu had instigated her to poison Lu Huohua.

The mystery that had been troubling Sun Xue and Madam Lu was finally solved. They had been wondering how Shi Guofu could poison Lu Huohua alone when the whole family was eating at the same table.

It turned out that when Lu Huohua sometimes came home very late from social engagements, Shi Guofu would seize the opportunity and arrange for Zhao Lexi to prepare a simple late-night snack for Lu Huohua.

It might be a glass of freshly squeezed juice, or a bowl of nourishing soup, and then medicine is quietly added to it.

These drugs were all purchased by Shi Fuguo through illegal channels. If the dosage is controlled properly, they may not be fatal in a short time, but over time, they will gradually damage the human immune system, eventually leading to organ failure and death.

He knew that people of Lu Huohua's status and position could only achieve their goals through such methods without arousing suspicion.

Including Zhao Lexi's husband, Li Hu, who also instigated Zhao Lexi to use the same method to kill her a year ago.

The reason is simple: Zhao Lexi often cheated on him, and Li Hu suspected that Zhao Lexi was having an affair, so he hit her.

After Zhao Lexi returned and complained to him, he conceived the idea of ​​killing her to silence her.

But the cunning man felt that killing Li Hu directly would be too easy for him, so he came up with the same idea and even tricked Zhao Lexi into buying several insurance policies for her husband, hoping to take the opportunity to commit insurance fraud.

However, midway through, he realized that Sun Xue had discovered his affair with Zhao Lexi. Fearing that Sun Xue would go to Zhao Lihu, he desperately instructed Zhao Lexi to go to the hospital and give Lihu a large dose of drugs at once, causing him to die from organ failure.

Because he had proof of long-term hospitalization, along with complete documents such as a death certificate and cremation certificate obtained through bribery of doctors, he ultimately received millions in compensation from the insurance company.

Zhao Lexi sobbed uncontrollably, "Officers, you must help me... I did administer the drugs, but Shi Guofu tricked me into doing so. I never knew these drugs could kill someone..."

"Also, when I came to work as a chef at the Lu family, Shi Guofu called me to his room to talk about work one day. I drank the beverage he gave me and lost consciousness. When I woke up the next morning, I found myself naked in his bed. He raped me. He must have put drugs in the drink."

Zhao Lexi cursed, "He's a beast. He even secretly filmed a video and threatened me, saying that if I dared to tell anyone, he would post the video online and ruin my reputation. He also said that he knows many high-ranking officials in Shanghai, so even if I called the police, it would be useless, and no one would care how I died. So, I was scared... so I didn't dare to tell anyone."

Upon hearing that Shi Guofu knew so many leaders, interrogator Liu Guodong frowned and asked sternly, "Did he mention any of the leaders' names?"

Zhao Lexi shook her head.

Liu Guodong realized that Zhao Lexi was not lying.

Among the bag of evidence that Zhao Di brought over, he had seen the contents of one of the discs, and he saw a bed scene between two somewhat familiar figures and a woman.

However, before he could finish watching them, all the discs were taken away by a leader in the bureau under some pretext...

From the audio recordings and Zhao Lexi's testimony, he vaguely sensed that Shi Guofu's case was far more complex than it seemed, involving many people, all of whom were influential and powerful...

He even felt that Shi Guofu's assets were not simply the seven or eight property deeds he had seen so far; perhaps this was just the tip of the iceberg...

Moreover, the interrogation of Shi Guofu also revealed that he was extremely cunning and shrewd.

From plotting to murder Lu Huohua, to plotting to murder Zhao Lexi's husband Li Hu, and then to instigating Zhao Xingdi to demand compensation from the Lu family, he never personally intervened in any of these matters; it was always the two sisters who were at the forefront of everything.

Shi Guofu did everything flawlessly, leaving no call records or text messages, giving all the instructions verbally, and completely absolving himself of any responsibility.

Just then, the interrogation room door was pushed open, and the leader appeared in the doorway.

Smiling, she said, "Xiao Liu, let someone else handle Shi Guofu's case. Come to my office, I have an important task for you..."

The interrogation was forced to stop halfway through.

Liu Guodong was taken aback. "Director Wang... I've only gone halfway through the interrogation..."

Director Wang patted him on the shoulder, "It's alright, I've already arranged for Xiao Li to take over this case. I have other important tasks to assign you..."

"Director Wang, what important task is it?"

Director Wang said with a smile, "It's definitely a good thing!"

Liu Guodong put down his pen and followed his superior out of the interrogation room with a puzzled look on his face.

He felt terrible. The sudden change of personnel was bad enough, but what's more, he heard from his colleagues that those CDs seemed to have been taken by Director Wang.

He was a deputy director in the bureau, enjoyed drinking, and liked to relax at clubs in his spare time.

As soon as I entered the office, Director Wang said with a smile, "You're going to attend the national work conference tomorrow, so prepare in advance."

Liu Guodong was taken aback. "Director Wang, weren't the quotas already decided?"

Director Wang frowned, looking displeased. "Xiao Liu, what's wrong? You don't want to participate?"

Liu Guodong quickly smiled and said, "Of course I'd like to participate."

"Xiao Liu, this is a very rare opportunity. Go and study hard, and when you come back, share your learning experience with everyone."

"Oh."

Director Wang waved his hand dismissively, "Alright, go back and get ready."

Meanwhile, news of Shi Guofu's arrest had already spread quietly in private.

Many people began to live in constant fear and anxiety.

Especially those who have had close ties with Shi Guofu in recent years, received a lot of benefits from him, and acted as his protectors.

Everyone was on pins and needles at that moment.

They knew that Shi Guofu had leverage over them: the money he gave them, fine wines and cigarettes, various luxury goods, and indecent videos.

If Shi Guofu becomes desperate and reveals their identities, releasing the video to the police, they will not only lose their jobs but also face legal trouble.

foreign.

Qianqian stayed at her friend's house without leaving, keeping in touch with her lawyer and closely following the progress of Shi Yaozu's case.

That noon, just after the two had finished eating, she received a call from the police station asking her to go there to cooperate with the investigation.

After hanging up the phone, Qianqian said anxiously, "I have to go to the police station to cooperate with the investigation."

Her friend immediately said, "I'll drive you there."

"Didn't you say you were having guests over this afternoon? Or... I'll go by myself."

"Then be careful."

Qianqian picked up her bag, smiled, and said, "I understand."

He got up and went out.
