Zhong Weishan woke up and nodded fiercely.
“Very well, I’ll tell you everything I know.”
Ye Chen did not speak. He placed his hands behind his back and waited for Zhong Weishan’s answer.
Zhong Weishan looked at Ye Chen with a complicated expression and sighed.
“Back then, 1 knew that the boy from the Ye family had fallen into East Coin Lake. I thought he was dead, but 1 didn’t expect him to come back to life.”
Zhong Weishan saw that Ye Chen did not respond, so he went straight to the point.
“Five years ago, 1 was in charge of investigating some special cases in Jiangnan Province. The incident at Cloud Lake Manor was the strangest one I’ve encountered that year.”
“Continue,” Ye Chen narrowed his eyes and said.
“When it happened, 1 happened to be handling another case in River City, so I rushed over as soon as possible. At that time, everyone at the banquet had dispersed. When I saw your parents, they were seriously injured.”
Ye Chen was stunned.
“What did you say? WSeriously injured? They were not dead yet?”
Zhong Weishan nodded, and then shook his head, seemingly conflicted.
A few seconds later, he said, “Actually, they could be considered dead. They had almost stopped breathing, and their heartbeats were fading fast. However, perhaps if it was a divine doctor, there might have been a chance of survival.”
“Did you take them to the hospital?” Ye Chen asked loudly, his tone clearly agitated.
“Of course, 1 took them to the hospital immediately, but the hospital immediately issued a death certificate.”
Ye Chen’s eyes were filled with complicated emotions. His medical skills were extraordinary, and he knew that the hospital’s death certificate could not prove anything!
As long as he wanted to, he could save nine out of ten patients they pronounced dead!
“Mr. Ye, the matter is not over yet. The strangest thing happened shortly after. The bodies should have been handed over to the forensic department, but a man suddenly appeared in the hospital. The man took out a special document and said that he wanted to take the two bodies away for half an hour.”
“Half an hour later, he sent the bodies back. However, for some reason, the higher-ups issued another document saying that the body did not need to be examined by the forensic department and suggested that they be cremated immediately.”
“At that time, I felt like something or someone was controlling everything that happened that day. 1 didn’t cremate them immediately but informed some of the Ye family’s relatives and friends, but for some reason, no one was willing to handle the cremation. Just as 1 was having a headache, a girl came to the hospital and said that she would do it.”
Hearing this, Ye Chen connected the dots together.
This girl was naturally Sun Yi, and he had a rough idea of what happened after that.
However, the biggest point of suspicion was why that strange man took the bodies away for half an hour.
He was also holding a special document.
Ye Chen was certain that the bodies that the man brought back half an hour later were not his parents’ bodies!
Perhaps they were destroying evidence!
After all, once they were cremated, it was impossible to find any evidence.
Zhong Weishan then continued, “1 felt that something was wrong with the incident at Cloud Lake Manor, so 1 kept investigating through various channels over the past few years. During that time, 1 found something interesting. This man once met your mother in a coffee shop, but they got into an argument halfway through the conversation. Your mother turned around and left. Her attitude seemed very unyielding.”
“I originally saved the surveillance footage from that coffee shop, but 1 didn’t expect that the next day, this file would suddenly disappear from my computer. 1 returned to the coffee shop to make another copy, but the file there was gone too! After that, 1 met that man again a day later, who threatened that if 1 continued to investigate this matter, my entire family would lose their lives!”
“Thus, for the sake of my family, 1 stopped investigating. This is what 1 roughly know about what happened back then.”
Ye Chen remained silent.
He fell into deep thought. Zhong Weishan would not lie to him. According to this new information, this mysterious man had become the most critical existence in his investigation into his parents’ incident.
His mother actually knew this man…
“Do you have a photo of this man? Or rather, can you draw a rough sketch of his features?” Ye Chen asked.
Zhong Weishan knew that Ye Chen would ask this, so he said, “1 also wanted to investigate this man, but I found that wherever he appeared, the surveillance footage would be erased. However, I should be able to draw a sketch of him.”
Ye Chen asked someone to bring him a pen and paper, after which Zhong Weishan drew a sketch according to his memory.
Although it was just a sketch, Ye Chen could vaguely envision the other party’s appearance.
“This isn’t enough. I’ll think of a way to get you out of prison. At that time, there will be someone who will contact you. 1 hope to get the other party’s true face generated through 3D modeling,” Ye Chen said.
Zhong Weishan thought for a moment and nodded. “That shouldn’t be a problem. When 1 was still in my previous position, 1 used that technology fairly often.”
“Alright.”
Ye Chen left the prison and made a call to Ying Qing, asking him to send someone to handle the matter.
At the same time, in a mansion in the Capital City.
A middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged on a huge rock. His aura surged around his body.
Spiritual energy gushed out of the rock and entered the man’s body.
The man’s aura continued to rise, and the entire room shook!
If Zhong Weishan was here, he would definitely realize that this middle-aged man was the one who had threatened him back then!
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
The middle-aged man opened his eyes and shot out a sharp gaze. The huge rock under him actually shattered!
“Come in!”
The door seemed to be pulled open by an invisible force.
A lean man walked in and knelt in front of the middle-aged man.
“Mister Jiang, I have something to report.”
“What is it?”
The middle-aged man stood up and straightened his clothes. A monstrous aura spread out.
“Today, someone met Zhong Weishan in Jiangnan Province’s prison,” the lean man said straightforwardly..
