The ancient saying goes: You shouldn’t have a mind to harm others, but be prepared against the harm others might do.

It could be said that Deng Xiang isn’t as adept as Deng Hu at handling matters.

It’s even possible to say that Deng Xiang sometimes seems a bit absent-minded.

But he absolutely has a sense of caution!

And while he was being cautious, Lin Zumeng, the leader, didn’t notice anything at all.

It was only when Chen Xiao brought up the issue that Deng Xiang was suddenly taken aback.

He seemed not to remember the photo Chen Xiao talked about very well.

Until two seconds later, Deng Xiang’s expression changed drastically.

However, he quickly collected himself and continued to feign indifference:

"What photo? I don’t know what you’re talking about."

Chen Xiao grinned: "Is there a need for this? I’ve been so clear, what’s the point of you pretending?"

Deng Xiang’s face sank, and Chen Xiao lost patience.

"Isn’t it clear enough? The night of July 16, 1995, behind Jingguang Village in the Provincial City, on Jingguang Mountain, Marquis Jinguang’s Tomb!"

Deng Xiang’s eyes suddenly tightened, but Chen Xiao’s words didn’t stop:

"We also retrieved the previously deleted data from the computer you brought. Among the data, there’s a photo. You, your father Deng Hu, Lin Zumeng, Ye Jiadong, Wang Shiji, Wang Shidu, Jiang Pinggui, Wu Qing, Wu Xue!"

Chen Xiao recited each name one by one.

Deng Xiang clenched his fist, glaring at Chen Xiao: "So you deceived me and my dad back to the country, all for the case of Marquis Jinguang’s Tomb eleven years ago?"

"Why else? Have you done something else in the Provincial City?" Chen Xiao retorted.

Deng Xiang took a deep breath: "It’s been 11 years, and you’re still not giving up!"

"So many people died all at once, regardless of how many years have passed, it should still be clarified!"

Deng Xiang snorted: "Ha, I do have such a photo, but what does having a photo mean?"

"Why was Lin Zumeng holding the abandoned baby found by Marquis Jinguang’s Tomb?"

Deng Xiang’s fist didn’t relax even for a moment.

His eyes kept spinning, seemingly planning some excuse.

Finally, Deng Xiang simply lifted his head and closed his mouth shut.

Seeing Deng Xiang’s reaction, Chen Xiao understood what kind of strategy he was trying to employ in the confrontation.

Chen Xiao got up nonchalantly.

As he reached the door, Chen Xiao said: "You and your father are both under suspicion now. Until the day you explain clearly the nature of your relationship with Ye Jiadong and the others, you won’t be going back."

"You can keep silent, but whether the Deng Family can still hold on without the two of you, that will depend on fate."

Deng Xiang suddenly punched the table, shouting:

"What exactly do you want!"

What does Chen Xiao want?

Doesn’t Deng Xiang know?

No, Deng Xiang is fully aware of what Chen Xiao wants.

But by asking this, there’s only one explanation, he still hopes to make a last effort!

Chen Xiao wasn’t interested in responding, shutting the inquiry room door, not even bothering to consult Deng Hu.

Wu Liuxian had also arrived at the criminal investigation team by this time, and upon meeting Chen Xiao, he asked:

"Brother, found the whereabouts of Master of the Helm?"

Chen Xiao nodded and took Wu Liuxian to identify the photo.

Upon seeing Zhang Du’s figure in the photo, Wu Liuxian’s expression also turned gloomy:

"He indeed participated in the Marquis Jinguang’s Tomb case, but where has he been all these years since the incident?"

"The captured Deng Xiang refuses to reveal the truth, so I’ve decided to let him cool off for a while. Also, now there’s another person, I’m waiting for Xiaoxi’s news."

Originally, Wu Liuxian didn’t intend to ask who it was, but Chen Xiao proactively asked:

"Do you know someone named Xiang Xian?"

In Chen Xiao’s mind.

This Xiang Xian must be a very important figure.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sent content with "coming" to Deng Hu after the re-investigation of the Jinguang Tomb case.

What’s coming?

Could it be danger is approaching?

Though it’s uncertain, Chen Xiao feels it’s very likely the case!

However, Wu Liuxian shakes his head after hearing: "I have no recollection of this person."

Chen Xiao nods silently, then asked:

"Is Dayou with Ah Yu?"

"Yes, Ah Yu is curious about every place in the big city. Coincidentally, Dayou can chat with anyone, so he stayed at the hotel with Ah Yu."

Chen Xiao muttered an oh.

Just then, the phone’s message tone sounded.

Chen Xiao looked, it was from Lin Xi: "Person found."

Seeing this message, Chen Xiao felt a lot more settled, he initially thought Xiang Xian might have already hidden.

But now it seems, not too many surprises have occurred amid the stalemate.

Over ten minutes later, Lin Xi returned to the criminal investigation team, filled with a strong sense of exhaustion after a sleepless night.

Accompanied was the incredibly intriguing Xiang Xian!

Yet, upon first glance at Xiang Xian, Chen Xiao’s eyes were filled with surprise.

Xiang Xian’s face had patches of red and white, with small eyes and corners glued together!

Chen Xiao looked at Lin Xi, who nodded slightly, seemingly saying it was as he guessed.

"I’m sorry officers if I startled you," Xiang Xian apologized, adjusting the hat on his head.

After settling it, Xiang Xian explained:

"Had a fire disaster years ago, with over ten people dead, thankfully I survived. Now, looking scary, so I keep the hat on, my head’s too ugly."

Chen Xiao nodded, reaching out his hand, and asked:

"No problem Mr. Xiang, please come inside."

Chen Xiao invited Xiang Xian into the questioning room.

After sitting down, Xiang Xian tidied his clothes and asked earnestly:

"Officer, can you now tell me the reason for calling me here?"

"Mr. Xiang should know Deng Family’s Young President, Deng Xiang, right?"

Xiang Xian didn’t hesitate at all, opening his mouth: "I do know him, we often email each other. Mm, to be honest, just a few days ago I sent him an email."

"Did you? What did it say?"

"I simply wrote two words, ’coming’, it’s a code between me and President Deng. Because my company relies on Deng Family, while I also collaborate with another company, the two being rivals."

"They planned to target Deng Family, so I sent him this email."

Chen Xiao showed a face of realization: "I see, it seems you both have a longstanding relationship?"

"Not exactly, we’re both immigrants. Later, during an accidental meeting, we learned each other were compatriots, establishing a deep friendship." Saying this, Xiang Xian sighed deeply:

"Ah, if it wasn’t for President Deng, I could hardly have survived that fire disaster, might not have been able to escape. Due to compatriot relations, before the compensation, all my medical costs were covered by President Deng."

"Over a dozen people died all at once, the fire was serious."

"Indeed, who’d think that staying in a star-rated hotel would encounter a fire situation! Now recalling, submerged in flames during that time was truly unbearable!"
