Chapter 347: Chapter 219: The Terrifying Elevator

“Name: Ding Xiang, Age: 34, High school graduate, joined the army afterwards, retired after 8 years, has been working in security since he returned, joined Zhao Group four years ago, became a member of the security department, quickly promoted to security captain due to excellent performance, and later recognized by the young lady of the Zhao Family, chosen as the house guard for the Zhao Family.”

Looking at Ding Xiang’s file on the table, Li Xiang knew he was nothing more than a pawn, because his education was insufficient to support him handling those operations, such as controlling the backend, inserting viruses, creating controllers, and other technical work.

Behind him, there was a mastermind.

And this mastermind…

Seems like all clues pointed to the young lady of the Zhao Family.

The babysitter was her person, the bodyguard was also her person, practically everyone in the group was her person; if she wanted to do something, it seemed effortless.

“Captain Li, Ding Xiang’s finances are fine.”

At this moment, the economic investigator in charge of Ding Xiang’s financial problems came over: “We’ve gone through all his assets, everything is normal, unless he received cash, otherwise we wouldn’t miss it.”

Li Xiang nodded, showing understanding.

This was strange, Ding Xiang wasn’t doing it for money?

Could it be…?

Li Xiang suddenly thought of something and quickly looked at Ding Xiang’s profile; in the marital status column, it showed unmarried.

“Could it be… because of love?”

That’s too unbelievable, isn’t it?

The story of a beautiful CEO and a small security guard?

If written into a novel, it would definitely sell well.

“Let’s go, bring Ding Xiang back.”

What the truth is, all will be known once Ding Xiang is caught and questioned.

Li Xiang was convinced that Ding Xiang was an insider, willingly doing this. Was it possible for him to be unaware?

A person who isn’t after money or faith, why would he commit a crime?

Li Xiang, taking his team, headed to the Zhao Family again. At that moment, Madam Zhao was furious: “Where has Xiaofeng gone? Not answering calls, it’s almost mealtime, not back to cook yet, does she still want this job?”

Due to her husband’s issues, Madam Zhao had been in a terrible mood lately. She blamed the babysitter not because she was hungry, but because she was upset, and this incident with the babysitter happened to be the outlet for her emotions.

Seeing Li Xiang and his team entering, Madam Zhao calmed down a little: “Captain Li, so late, is there anything else?”

“Madam Zhao, don’t expect the babysitter to come back to cook; you might not know, we summoned her this afternoon and put her under criminal detention.”

“Criminal detention? Does that mean she killed my husband?”

The police had come today to inform her that her husband was murdered. The afternoon arrest of the babysitter made Madam Zhao suspicious; could her babysitter be the one who killed her husband?

Thinking of this, she became sorrowful: “That heartless Xiaofeng, our Zhao Family wasn’t unkind to you, how could you do something so ruthless?”

“Madam Zhao, although Zhou Xiaofeng was involved, she wasn’t the mastermind. The case is still under investigation, and we can’t disclose much. We’re here today to take Ding Xiang for investigation at the bureau.”

Li Xiang didn’t forget the purpose of their visit, but Madam Zhao was stunned hearing they were looking for Ding Xiang: “Ding Xiang? I don’t know, he was just here.”

At this moment, a mature, graceful beauty came down the stairs, her long hair cascading over her shoulders. She looked down at Li Xiang and his team, saying: “I arranged for Ding Xiang to pick up something at the company.”

“Captain Li, she is Zhao Wanting, the young lady of the Zhao Family.” Jiang Fei whispered in Li Xiang’s ear.

“Wanting, why did you come down?”

“I heard people talking downstairs, so I came to see who it was.”

“This is Captain Li from the task force, he’s in charge of your father’s case.”

“Captain Li, hello. Any progress in my father’s case?”

“When did Ding Xiang leave?”

“Ten minutes ago.”

“Alright, we’re leaving now.”

“You haven’t answered me yet.”

Zhao Wanting was infuriated when she saw Li Xiang and his team ignoring her. Are officers nowadays so arrogant?

Leaving the Zhao Family,

Jiang Fei worriedly said: “Captain Li, do you think Zhao Wanting arranged for Ding Xiang to escape, deliberately stalling by saying he went to the company? What should we do next?”

All the previous investigations pointed to Zhao Wanting as possibly being problematic.

Every clue, more or less, connected to her, making Li Xiang and his team suspicious.

Now again, just as they were about to find Ding Xiang, Zhao Wanting arranged for him to go to company headquarters,

claiming he went to headquarters to get something—did he really go?

With the enemy in the open and us in the dark, they’re unsure just how much evidence the police have. If they hastily issue an alert on Ding Xiang, it might alert them, causing him to flee, leaving them at a disadvantage.

Therefore, capturing Ding Xiang must be done secretly.

“If he ran or not, we’ll know at the group headquarters, Zhao Wanting said he went to get something; we should check if he’s there.”

Now they could only take a chance, hope Ding Xiang didn’t know he was exposed, and that he was genuinely helping Zhao Wanting pick something up, that it was a coincidence.

But is there really such a coincidence in this world?

They reached Zhao Group headquarters, now after hours, with the exception of some dimly lit public areas, most of the offices had their lights turned off.
