Pei Xingzhi took out his phone and made a call to Ye Ci right in front of Qian Jutang.

"Hey?"

The call connected, and a male voice, also altered by voice changer, came through the receiver.

Pei Xingzhi stared at Qian Jutang with a sinister look and said to Ye Ci on the phone, "Qin Wushuang bought a villa on Wuling Mountain in Linzhou. The previous owner of the villa was Yu Xingwang."

Ye Ci: "Understood! I'll go check right now!"

Pei Xingzhi: "Hmm."

Then he hung up the phone.

"Qian Jutang, if you dare to tell me a single lie, I'll immediately hand these things over to the police!"

"No, I dare not!" Qian Jutang knelt upright with his round, plump body, as if making a vow to Pei Xingzhi.

"Brother, you can check as much as you want! If I've told you even half a lie, I'll kill myself right here in front of you!"

"..." Pei Xingzhi glanced at him speechlessly, then turned and left the basement.

But strangely, he didn't close the iron door to the basement.

The two-meter-wide iron gate was wide open, and the sunlight, a symbol of freedom, stung Qian Jutang's eyes.

Qian Jutang's heart was beginning to stir with desire.

But the next second, a series of messy footsteps suddenly sounded at the door.

Immediately afterwards, four or five tall, burly men walked in from outside the door.

"...What are you doing?" He looked blankly at the burly men who had surrounded him, swallowing nervously. "What...what do you want to do?"

"..."

The burly man didn't speak, but just stared at him with a dark and sinister expression.

He shrank back, deliberately raising his voice to bolster his courage: "Don't do anything rash! My older brother said he won't report me!"

"I did say I wouldn't report you, but I didn't say I wouldn't do anything else to you."

Pei Xingzhi's voice returned, ringing out again at the doorway.

Qian Jutang suddenly turned his head and looked at Pei Xingzhi not far away through the gap between the burly man's legs.

"...Brother, what do you mean by this?" he asked cautiously.

Pei Xingzhi ignored him and coldly ordered, "Make your move, just don't kill or maim him."

"Yes!" the burly men replied in unison.

"What?" Qian Jutang still didn't understand Pei Xingzhi's meaning.

Pei Xingzhi ignored him and quickly disappeared outside the door with a slight turn of his tall figure.

“…No, big brother!”

While Qian Jutang was still in a daze, the burly man's fists came crashing down on him.

"what!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

"Don't hit me, don't hit me!!"

"Didn't we agree to cooperate amicably? Why did you hit me?! Why?!"

A pig-like scream came from the basement. Pei Xingzhi took off his mask and frowned impatiently.

"Heh..." Ye Ci sneered, and said viciously, "What a beast! It would be a shame not to kill him!"

Pei Xingzhi shook his head, his expression somewhat sorrowful: "The rest is up to you. I'll take my men and head to Linzhou right away."

Ye Ci: "No problem. Have you spoken to Director Chen yet?"

Pei Xingzhi took off his coat and picked up another one from the chair to put on: "We'll talk to him later. Have you contacted Shen Yanhui yet?"

"Sigh..." Ye Chi sighed, "Not yet, I've called Shen Yanhui several times but she hasn't answered."

"It's nothing." Pei Xingzhi took out his glasses from his coat pocket, wiped them casually, and put them on. "I'll handle Shen Yanhui. You just focus on managing things here."

"I'm leaving now. Call me if you need anything."

Ye Ci saw him to the door: "Be careful on the road. I've already had someone investigate Yu Xingwang. If all goes well, we should have the results by noon today."

"Okay." Pei Xingzhi patted his shoulder, smiled slightly at him, and then left with his car keys.

The black Mercedes drove out of the underground parking lot, turned right, and then sped straight toward the Yunlin Expressway.

Before getting on the highway, he called Chen Jingxuan to report on Qin Wushuang.

This morning, the task force finally made new progress in its investigation. After a long period of investigation, they finally found a suspicious vehicle in the surveillance camera footage near the repair shop.

Coincidentally, the owner of that car was a former employee of the Qin Group. Although he had left the Qin Group a long time ago, he had never lost contact with Qin Wushuang.

His appearance increased Qin Wushuang's suspicions, so when Pei Xingzhi mentioned Qin Wushuang's purchase of a second-hand villa, Chen Jingxuan immediately accepted this suspicion and reported it to the task force.

The task force immediately launched an investigation.

Pei Xingzhi didn't hide anything from Chen Jingxuan and directly revealed his plan to him.

"Uncle Chen, I'm already on my way to Linzhou. If the task force makes any new discoveries, please let me know as soon as possible."

“Xingzhi, you…” Chen Jingxuan originally intended to scold him a bit, but after thinking about it again, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for him.

"Sigh..." Chen Jingxuan sighed helplessly, but ultimately didn't say anything.

"You, I don't even know what to say to you."

Pei Xingzhi said with a straight face, "I'm sorry, Uncle Chen, I won't cause you any trouble."

Chen Jingxuan: "I'm not afraid of you causing me trouble, I'm just afraid you'll act impulsively when you're emotional! Xingzhi, once you get to Linzhou, you'd better stay put and don't go near Wuling Mountain without my permission!"

"Qin Wushuang is extremely cunning. You must not alert him, understand?"

"I understand, thank you Uncle Chen," Pei Xingzhi replied obediently.

But Chen Jingxuan knew that his obedience was all an act. Ruthlessness and coldness were his true nature.

"Be careful on the road and keep me informed of your whereabouts."

Pei Xingzhi: "Okay."

After hanging up, he immediately called Shen Yan back.

Shen Yanhui must have finished her work, because she answered his call quickly.

"Hey, Pei Xingzhi."

“The information you gave me is indeed incorrect.” Pei Xingzhi didn’t beat around the bush and stated his conclusion directly.

"...What?" Shen Yan was stunned. "Why is the information I gave you wrong?"

Pei Xingzhi: "I kidnapped Qian Jutang. Qian Jutang confessed that Qin Wushuang's villa was bought from Yu Xingwang. Yu Xingwang gave the villa to Qin Wushuang as a favor."

"The villa is located in Wuling Mountain in Linzhou, not in Hongfeng Mountain in the northern suburbs."

“…Huh?” Shen Yanhui was stunned for a moment.

Pei Xingzhi said in a deep voice, "Qian Jutang's confession differs significantly from the information you gave me. Whether it's the name of the homeowner, the origin of the villa, or the specific location of the villa, they are all different from what you said."

"After careful consideration, I decided to listen to Qian Jutang, because he is a coward who is afraid of death, and he would never dare to lie to me under my coercion."

Shen Yan replied: "So you mean I lied to you?"
