Chapter 119 One Million Consolation Money

Because their daughter's body could not be cremated for the time being, Yuan Ningning's parents were forced to stay in Chuncheng.

They randomly found a hotel near the hospital, as if this would bring them one step closer to their daughter's soul and ease the boundless grief in their hearts.

The lonely guest room seemed particularly deserted.

As night fell, under the dim light, the old couple looked pale and haggard, their hearts immersed in the pain of losing their beloved daughter, and the world seemed to have lost all its colors.

However, in this mournful night, a knock on the door broke the silence.

The husband suppressed his grief and opened the door, only to see a group of strangers in formal attire and with solemn expressions standing outside.

At the moment, one of them introduced himself: "Hello, Mr. Yuan. My last name is Zhao. I am the general manager of Xiangjiang Hotel. May I come in and have a chat with you?"

Although Yuan's father didn't understand what was going on, he nodded in agreement and let the person into the room.

When Manager Zhao saw Yuan's mother, he nodded solemnly.

Then, he deliberately lowered his voice and said regretfully:

"We deeply regret that your daughter accidentally lost her footing and fell to her death in our hotel, and we would like to express our deepest apologies for this incident."

As soon as he finished speaking, a person behind him picked up a black leather suitcase and placed it carefully on the coffee table.

When I opened the box, I saw neatly stacked stacks of brand new banknotes.

Manager Zhao forced a smile at this time and said sincerely:
"This is the consolation money our hotel has decided to give you two, a total of one million. We hope that this money can bring some substantial help to your lives. At the same time..."

He paused, his tone becoming heavy and earnest.

"The hotel is facing a lot of pressure from public opinion right now, so I ask you to lobby the police. If the case can be closed as soon as possible, your daughter's body can be cremated and buried in peace as soon as possible."

Yuan's father looked at Manager Zhao suspiciously and asked in confusion:
"A man of integrity has nothing to fear. Isn't this unnecessary, Mr. Zhao? Isn't he afraid of causing misunderstanding and suspicion?"

now.

Yuan's mother also understood. She wiped away the tears from her eyes and shouted in anger:
"We have no control over how the police handle the case, but I know that whoever killed my daughter will be punished with his life!"

Manager Zhao smiled awkwardly, then quickly stopped smiling. He grabbed a stack of banknotes and threw them to the ground.
"I understand how you feel now, but the dead cannot be resurrected, and the living must still look forward.

I advise you two to consider carefully, otherwise not only will you lose this million, but your future life will also be in jeopardy."

Although he hadn't finished speaking, his words contained a strong threat.

After hearing this, Yuan's mother was furious and scolded angrily, "Get out! Take your money and get out! Don't you have any children? You are such a heartless person!"

Manager Zhao was entrusted by someone to come on this trip, but now he is being scolded and is very unhappy.

He suppressed his anger and left angrily. His followers packed up their suitcases and left one after another.

Father Yuan looked at their receding figures with mixed feelings. His already torn heart was once again hit by the cruelty of reality.

He knew very well that Manager Zhao's visit must be related to complicated social relations and conflicts of interest.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuan's father thought that the only person who could provide help was the policeman named Liang Yu.

It was late at night, and Hu Bing was quite surprised by Liang Yu's sudden visit.

His wife and children were already asleep, and he led Liang Yu into the study.

Inside the room, the desk lamp cast a soft, yellowish glow, and two cups of hot tea were emitting wisps of steam on the table.

The two sat opposite each other and talked in low voices.

"Boss, Yuan Ningning's case is a bit complicated!" Liang Yu's tone was full of solemnity.

Hu Bing took a sip of tea and nodded slightly. "I've learned everything. This matter involves Qian's Pharmaceuticals. How many clues do you have so far?"

Liang Yu let out a helpless sigh.

"Yuan Ningning's companion that night is still missing, and the hotel's surveillance video above the 20th floor happened to be upgraded for maintenance.

In addition, we checked all the guest rooms and found no trace of the deceased, but found a shoe that he had lost on the rooftop. "

Hu Bing narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but put forward a hypothesis: "Is it possible that Yuan Ningning really fell to her death or committed suicide by jumping off a building?"

"impossible!"

Liang Yu explained:
“I suspect that the shoe on the rooftop was left there intentionally by someone, with the intention of creating the illusion that the deceased had fallen from the building.

It can even be said that this was an open conspiracy by the murderer, who brazenly fabricated the scene and did not take us police officers seriously!"

"Oh, are you so sure?" Hu Bing asked.

"The deceased's clothes showed obvious signs of being violently torn. In addition, according to Lou Pengcheng's investigation, the door leading to the rooftop was usually closed.

It would be difficult for Yuan Ningning to reach the rooftop alone without permission from the staff.

However, that’s not what I want to say!”

Liang Yu's eyes were sharp, and he emphasized again:
"What I want to talk about is the hotel's surveillance failure, the public opinion on the Internet, Tian Fei's mysterious disappearance, and the one million condolence money that appeared tonight!"

Hearing this, Hu Bing was confused and asked again: "What's the matter with this one million?"

then.

Liang Yu recounted in detail what Manager Zhao said and did tonight, explained the experiences of Yuan Ningning's parents, and the origin of the one million yuan in consolation money.

After hearing this, Hu Bing's expression became more serious, and his eyes revealed an unconcealable worry.

"So you think that there is a powerful force behind this series of strange things?"

Liang Yu nodded firmly: "Yes, and the person behind this has enormous power!"

Then he recounted the confessions of Yuan's father and Li Mengle.

He recounted his experience of going to Qian's Pharmaceutical Company but being turned away.

When everything was said, the study fell into silence for a moment, and Hu Bing's face looked particularly solemn under the light.

"Qian's Pharmaceuticals is an important private pharmaceutical company in our province, and Qian Mingshi is a renowned entrepreneur.

Therefore, before the truth comes to light, we must act with caution so as not to escalate the impact of the incident.

Regarding the current clues and resistance, I will talk to the director tomorrow. As for the final effect, I dare not guarantee it. "

Liang Yu's brows were tightly knitted together. He was sure that Hu Bing's words were not an excuse to evade responsibility.

In fact, when the case involved a large enterprise like Qian's Pharmaceutical, it had far exceeded the level of the Municipal Bureau's detachment.

However, he needs to make his position clear.

"Boss, I am just a small policeman, but I have my own duties. Now that this case has come into my hands, I will not ignore it.

No matter what kind of power the Qian Group possesses, once I find solid evidence, I will not hesitate to confront it head-on."

Hu Bing nodded with great satisfaction. He had indeed not misjudged the man. His eyes revealed a resonance and admiration between heroes.

At the same time, he also harbored a hint of worry about Liang Yu's overly strong character.

After all, if you are too rigid, you will break!
