I just joined the inspection department, and the whole country is in a panic.

Wu Zhenghao?

Upon hearing this, Ding Feng's face immediately darkened!

He definitely has a problem!

That proves that what Liu Zhibao said was the truth!

"How dare you make such obvious mistakes so blatantly?"

"I was indeed not very ideologically aware at the time, and I was swayed, so I just went with the flow."

“When Liu Zhibao got into trouble, he did indeed accept money. At the time, Wu Zhenghao said that Liu Zhibao himself was not clean. Who would believe what he said? Maybe he was just desperate and biting people indiscriminately.”

"After all, it was the top leader who said such a thing, so we didn't dare to question it casually. It was only when we went down to interrogate him that we discovered some discrepancies," Xu Angxiong said with a look of shame.

"How did Wu Zhenghao imply that you were influenced?" Yang Wen asked.

“He called me to his office, and then he gave me subtle hints,” Xu Angxiong said.

"So during your interrogation, who advocated for the use of torture to extract a confession from Liu Zhibao, and who framed him for the more than 300 million yuan?" Ding Feng asked in a deep voice.

"This wasn't me. It was Song Sijie and his group from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection who were in charge of the interrogation. I didn't know at first, but as time went on, Liu Zhibao stopped cooperating, so they used torture to extract a confession. We heard some noises outside, so we made a guess, and then the news spread from inside."

"Later, Wu Zhenghao called us in for a talk, and he subtly hinted that we should stick to the same story."

"I see." Yang Wen and Ding Feng nodded slightly.

"This Wu Zhenghao is incredibly audacious. Is he trying to become a local tyrant?" Ding Feng's face was so dark it could drip water.

Manipulate it at will!

"So you're willing to get on this pirate ship? Aren't you afraid of being implicated if something goes wrong later?" Yang Wen narrowed his eyes.

"Well... the power was too great for me, and I had no choice at the time."

"In that case, we still don't have any strong evidence against Wu Zhenghao," Ding Feng sighed slightly.

"Team Leader Ding, can I... can I atone for my crime by doing good deeds?" Xu Angxiong hesitated for a moment before raising his hand.

"Of course! Do you have any useful information?"

“If you help us solve the case, you will have made a great contribution. I will report this to my superiors and try to get you the most lenient treatment!” Ding Feng’s eyes lit up.

"It's about the disappearance of Liu Zhibao's lover, Wang Meimei. Actually, I know some clues," Xu Angxiong said in a deep voice.

"Oh?"

Yang Wen and Ding Feng were overjoyed upon hearing this!

"After Wang Meimei disappeared for some time, her best friend reported her missing to the police, and it just so happened that I was the one handling this case." "When I led the investigation, we unexpectedly discovered a clue: Wang Meimei might not have disappeared, but rather been murdered!"

Xu Angxiong's words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky!

"Expand and tell me!"

“When I investigated this case, I was just going through the motions because I didn’t want to get involved with Liu Zhibao’s mistress! I was also very afraid that I would become the second Liu Zhibao!”

"I was just going through the motions. According to the previous surveillance footage, Wang Meimei last disappeared in Nanxiang Old Street. Coincidentally, there was a hidden camera installed on the second floor of a luxury house nearby, which recorded everything."

"At that time, the owner of that building voluntarily provided us with that video footage."

"The video shows several burly men getting out of a van without license plates, abducting Wang Meimei who was walking on the side of the road, and driving away."

“At the time, I was also curious, mainly because it was related to Liu Zhibao. I secretly investigated the van myself. After spending some time, I found the van at the junkyard. I even found a recording pen hidden in the torn leather of the seat inside the van.”

"Guess what?"

"I heard the sounds of Wang Meimei being tortured and killed on this recorder, as well as the voice of Wu Zhenghao's cousin, and gunshots..."

"It also mentioned that the body was dumped in the water at the end!"

"I suspect Wang Meimei secretly left this recording pen behind!"

"I also found other recordings on this recorder, namely the recordings of Wang Meimei and Liu Zhibao. I suspect that Wang Meimei didn't genuinely want to be with Liu Zhibao; she might have been planning to use this evidence to blackmail him into running away. I didn't expect Liu Zhibao to get into trouble so quickly, and she got implicated as well..."

Upon hearing this, both Yang Wen and Ding Feng were shocked.

"Then why didn't you use this to expose Wu Zhenghao and his cousin back then?" Ding Feng asked angrily.

"for this I……"

Xu Angxiong was speechless for a moment.

"I... I was a little scared of Wu Zhenghao and his cousin's methods at the time! Also, I had a selfish motive, I wanted to use this evidence to threaten them later..." Xu Angxiong lowered his head in shame again.

Hearing Xu Angxiong's words, Yang Wen immediately understood.

When Xu Angxiong went in in his previous life.

He's no longer the deputy director.

It's correct now.

It seems that everything does indeed match up somewhat.

"Xu Angxiong, you have really disappointed me!" Ding Feng's face was extremely gloomy.

"Chief Ding, what we need to do now is solve the case as quickly as possible!"

"Xu Angxiong, do you still have this recording pen? Where did you hide it?" Yang Wen asked in a deep voice.

“It’s in my house. I can take you there to get it. I’ve hidden it in a fairly secluded place,” Xu Angxiong said hurriedly.

"Good good!"

"By the way, the recording mentioned that they were going to sink Wang Meimei. There's only one place near Lingtian County, and that's Lingshui Lake, which is near the county seat... Maybe that's where Wang Meimei was murdered," Xu Angxiong quickly reminded him.

"Mm." Ding Feng nodded slightly.

"Alright, Yang Wen, take him to his house right now to get the recording pen. I'll personally report this and have someone help us search there to see if we find anything!" Ding Feng said solemnly.

This matter needs to be handled quickly!

"understand!"

Soon, Yang Wen took Xu Angxiong to the other party's home.

Xu Angxiong lives with his parents.

So Yang Wen and his friends went to the other party's house under the pretext of visiting to pick up their things, and did not plan to make the matter public for the time being.

After all, we also need to consider collecting more important evidence later, and we must not let Wu Zhenghao and the others know about it.

If we find out, who knows what other unexpected things might happen!

Soon, Yang Wen obtained the voice recorder from Xu Angxiong's home.

Upon returning to the investigation team, Yang Wen immediately copied the contents of the recording and made multiple backups.

After finishing everything, we waited anxiously for news from Ding Feng!
