After the skinny monkey left.

Lu Tie looked at me with some confusion.

"You just let him go like that?"

I glanced at him.

"Otherwise what? You really want to kill him here to silence him?"

A ruthless glint flashed in Lü Tie's eyes.

“This is the middle of nowhere, and there are no cameras. If he were to disappear from the world forever, no one would find out.”

My expression froze slightly.

I never imagined that Lü Tie was so ruthless.

Don't let his age fool you, he's already in his fifties or sixties.

But this viciousness is no different from that of a young person.

I said, "It's no longer safe for you to stay under the bridge; someone is watching you."

"You should come back to the city with me. I'll find you a place to stay."

Upon hearing this, Lü Tie's face immediately broke into a smile.

"That feeling is good!"

"I trust you. You're much more reliable than that bastard Zhao Ming!"

“That bastard Zhao Ming tricked me into going to his company, and I almost got locked up there.”

.......

Ten p.m.

I brought Lü Tie to the company.

The company security guards saw me arrive.

He quickly opened the door for me.

Then he called out, "Good evening, Mr. Lu."

"You still come to the company so late. If you need any help, just call me."

I smiled and nodded, then led Lü Tie into the company.

Lu Tie was looking around restlessly.

Glancing here and there.

Then he looked at me with a face full of shock and envy.

"You own such a big company?"

"You're so young, but you're really rich!"

Lü Tie's words were full of lavish praise.

I said, "Lu Tie, I'll find you a room at the company. Don't wander around. There are security cameras here. Do you understand?"

Lu Tie immediately nodded with a smile.

"As long as I don't have to live under a bridge, I'm fine with living anywhere!"

I quickly arranged for Lü Tie to be placed in a storage room not far from my office.

There is a bed here.

Clean out the clutter inside.

This is a perfect place for Lü Tie to rest.

After settling Lü Tie in.

I'm planning to leave this place.

Suddenly, Lü Tie called out to me.

"Um, I haven't had dinner yet, and I'm a little hungry. Do you have anything to eat at your company?"

I frowned as I looked at Lü Tie.

There was no food at the company, and I was also worried about Lü Tie wandering around the company.

After all, this person is dishonest and a gambling addict.

What if he has malicious intentions and takes away the employee's personal belongings?

That would cause a lot of trouble.

So I said, "Lu Tie, you stay here quietly, I'll send someone to bring you some food."

Upon hearing this, Lü Tie's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"Okay, okay! I'll follow Mr. Lu's arrangements. I won't go anywhere; I'll stay here!"

"By the way, it would be even better if Mr. Lu had barbecue delivered!"

I almost laughed out of anger at Lü Tie.

I was being lenient by not charging him for his accommodation.

He then made further demands.

.......

After I left the company.

He immediately called Shen Zuo.

Shen Zuo and his gang of underlings are all night owls.

I often stay up late at night.

After the call was connected.

I first inquired about Wu Wanyue's situation.

Shen Zuo replied, "President Lu, I have safely escorted Wu Wanyue home."

I said, "Okay, can you get me some barbecue and deliver it to the storage room next to my office at the company, for one person inside to eat."

Shen Zuo was slightly surprised: "President Lu, do you have friends living in the company?"

I shook my head: "We're not friends."

Shen Zuo nodded: "I understand."

Then I remembered something and immediately reminded him, "Shen Zuo, after you deliver the barbecue to him, don't rush to leave. Go to the monitoring room and observe him to see what he does. Report back to me immediately."

"Roger that!"

.......

There's just so much stuff piling up lately.

This is making my head ache even more.

I plan to go have a drink with Wei Liu and sort out my thoughts.

When I arrived at Wei Liu's barbecue restaurant.

At that moment, Wei Liu had just finished packing up his stall.

He saw me coming.

That is, they put down their work.

"Lu Yi, you look so worried. It seems you've run into some trouble lately?"

I nodded helplessly: "Yes, I've encountered quite a few troublesome things."

Wei Liu said, "Then let's have a drink together and drown our sorrows in alcohol."

Then, Wei Liu simply grilled a few skewers.

We sat at a table and chairs by the roadside.

Enjoying barbecue skewers and drinking alcohol.

I said, "Liu Chaoyang's matter is just one wave after another. First, Lin Tianwang came out to protect him, which caused all the evidence I painstakingly collected to be lost."

"Then there's the matter of the real culprit behind Aunt Gu's suicide by jumping off the bridge. Not only has he not been found so far, but the mystery has become increasingly perplexing."

Wei Liu squinted and took a sip of wine.

"If you feel that things are becoming increasingly confusing and heading in a direction that you can't control."

This only proves one thing.

I looked at him in surprise: "What does that mean?"

Wei Liu said calmly, "There's a bigger and more powerful person behind you preventing you from investigating all of this."

"You mean, Lin Tianwang? He's deliberately obstructing my investigation into the truth?"

I was still a little puzzled: "If it's to stop me from investigating Liu Chaoyang, then I can understand."

"But why is he trying to stop me from investigating Aunt Gu's cause of death by jumping off the bridge?"

“I have never heard of him knowing Aunt Gu.”

Wei Liu said, "I never said that Lin Tianwang was behind it all; it could be someone else."

"Who else could it be?"

A name popped into my mind, but I didn't dare say it aloud.

Wei Liu took a bite of the beef skewer.

"From what you just said, the Jade Club should be the breakthrough point. Liu Chaoyang may have some kind of shady dealings with the Jade Club, right?"

I nodded quickly: "Yes."

“Okay, then I’ll go and take a look at this Jade Club.”

"Let's see what's inside this Jade Club!"

Upon hearing this.

My heart felt warm, and a grateful expression appeared on my face.

"Brother Wei, thank you for your help."

"I'll remember this favor."

.......

at this time.

Shen Zuo suddenly called.

He said on the phone, "Mr. Lu, the person you asked me to keep an eye on has indeed made a move."

"What's the noise?"

Upon hearing this, I instantly sobered up a bit.

Shen Zuo said, "After that person had eaten and drunk his fill, he did not rest, but left the storeroom."

"It looks like he's heading downstairs, preparing to leave the company."

"Should I have the company security stop him?"

I thought for a moment, and then said, "Don't stop him, let him leave, and then secretly follow him to see where he's going."

"Keep me informed as soon as possible, and I'll come find you to meet up!"
