Money can really do whatever it wants

"Maybe I'm busy in a meeting. There's no one in the office. Let's call back later." Chen Mo looked at the other party's mobile phone screen. There was a landline number on it. It was normal that he didn't receive the call.

"Well..." Chen Xinyang nodded and put his phone back into his bag, then took out a mirror to adjust his makeup.

Chen Mo could tell that she wanted to do something to relieve her tension, so he let her go.

The two of them were actually not far from the detention center at this time, and they arrived there quickly. To their surprise, there were four or five cars parked in front of the detention center. One of them, which Chen Mo had seen, was Zheng Dunbai's car. There were several other vehicles with local license plates from the local police.

"Officer Zheng?" Chen Mo wasn't planning to get out of the car, but when he saw Zheng Dunbai was there, he got out of the car with Chen Xinyang and said hello.

"Chen Mo? And this is..." Zheng Dunbai also saw Chen Mo, walked over and shook hands, and then turned his eyes to Chen Xinyang. Just when Chen Mo was about to introduce him, he seemed to recognize him: "You are Chen Mo The kind-hearted...family members, right?"

Zheng Dunbai was the police officer handling this case, so it was normal for him to have met Chen Xinyang. On the other hand, Chen Xinyang might not have had any impression of one of the police officers, so he didn't recognize him.

"Police Officer Zheng Dunbai, one of the police officers handling your father's case." Chen Mo introduced.

"Hello Officer Zheng, I am Chen Shanyu's daughter, Chen Xinyang." After glancing at Chen Mo, Chen Xinyang slowly stretched out his hand and shook Zheng Dunbai lightly, then immediately retracted it.

Zheng Dunbai didn't take it seriously, just thinking it was a shy girl, and given the relationship with the suspect's daughter, it was normal for her not to want to get too close to the police.

"Then you are her cousin?... No, he should be his cousin." Zheng Dunbai's mind was a little confused for a moment. He just saw that the two people had the same last name and thought they were cousins. Later, after thinking about the relationship, he realized that something was wrong. .

Chen Mo nodded. Seeing a group of people who looked like they were in plain clothes, with a few people in police uniforms walking out, he decided not to disturb each other's work. Besides, the two of them had not yet achieved the purpose of their trip.

"I came here to take care of you... My cousin is here to visit. I won't disturb you anymore. Let's go in first." Chen Mo looked at the group of people coming out and said to Zheng Dunbai.

"Huh? Oh, you may have to wait a while, they are busy now." A trace of embarrassment flashed across Zheng Dunbai's expression, but it was fleeting.

"We just couldn't get through on the phone. It doesn't matter. We'll be fine in a while." Chen Mo didn't care too much and was about to walk in with Chen Xinyang.

"I'll contact the deputy director here and ask him to take you in first." Zheng Dunbai grabbed Chen Mo and took out his mobile phone with his other hand to start making calls. At the same time, the group of people just entered separately. A few cars left, and the front door that was bustling just now became much deserted.

Within a few minutes, Zheng Dunbai signaled to Chen Mo that he could take Chen Xinyang in.

After saying thank you, the two walked into the large iron gate of the detention center. A police officer took the two into the building, arranged for Chen Mo to wait in the lounge, and took Chen Xinyang to the interview room.

Sitting on the sofa in the lounge, Chen Mo took a newspaper from the side and read it out of boredom.

What surprised him was that the newspaper was not a major newspaper such as Legal Daily or People's Daily, but some entertainment news. Looking carefully at the bookshelf, there were actually many entertainment magazines on it, and it seemed that they had all been read. Many times.

Chen Mo had no interest in these contents, but he was really bored in this place, so he had to pick out a few from the past few days and lay them on the table to read slowly.

The first thing that caught his eye was the news that three Chinese members of Cosmic Girls had quit the group, which almost shocked Chen Mo.

Regarding the fact that Wu Xuanxuan was Wu Xuanyi, Chen Mo went back and looked at the photos carefully and found that if some basic disguises were eliminated, they did look alike. However, he did not expect that what he casually said would become a reality so quickly.

According to the above statement, because Cheng Xiao was involved in a criminal case and the other two teammates were unwilling to comply with the company's arrangements, the company finally decided to terminate their contract with them. However, they did not quit the group and could still use the titles of Cosmic Girls members. activity, but not the name of the composition itself.

To be honest, as far as the Korean entertainment industry is concerned, this termination condition was so unexpectedly perfect that even Chen Mo thought there might be some shady story behind it.

In the past few days, Chen Mo first accepted Chen Xin Yang, and then prepared to capture Lu Wenyin's heart. He was so busy that he didn't pay attention to the news at all. Only then did he realize that this matter had been hyped for several days. Chinese artists in Korea are already The hot topic is linked to the popular case some time ago, and the public and entertainment reporters are ecstatic.

It wasn't until noon that Chen Xinyang walked out of the interview room with red eyes.

Chen Mo originally wanted to ask how the conversation went, but seeing the situation, he had no choice but to thank the police officer first, and then took Chen Xinyang out and returned to the car.

In fact, as far as Chen Mo is concerned, there are some risks in bringing Chen Xin Yang out. The reason why he put Chen Xin Yang under his crotch was Chen Shanyu's sudden arrest. Now he is bringing her to see his father. It is possible that some changes in mentality may occur due to emotional excitement.

"Ugh - I'm so scared inside. I always feel like he's going to see the vacuum inside..." Just when Chen Mo was a little worried about Chen Xinyang's condition, the latter actually ran into his arms and began to cry.

Seeing this scene, Chen Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that Nizi was crying because of this incident. She was frightened inside and suddenly relaxed after seeing herself.

He hugged Chen Xinyang and comforted him for a while. When he saw that the other person's crying gradually stopped, he began to ask about business matters.

Chapter 96 Despair

"Did you tell him about changing lawyers? Did you ask him to give a serious account in exchange for a reduced sentence?" Chen Mo asked while lifting up the delicate body lying on his body.

Chen Xinyang took out two tissues and wiped the tears on his face. After calming down, he replied: "He didn't agree at first, but then after I told him that I was living in the master's house, his attitude changed. I gradually became more relaxed and finally agreed to find another lawyer first."

"That's good. I'm really worried about that right now, but in the end he has to figure it out on his own. Did he say why he would rather bear the blame than be a tainted witness?" Chen Mo continued to ask. He believed in his father and daughter. The two of them talked for more than two hours. It was impossible that they were just chatting about family matters.

"He said that as long as he insists and doesn't let go, I will receive a sum of money every year." Chen Xinyang explained.

"Sure enough..." Chen Mo was more certain of his previous guess.

Just when he was about to ask something more, his cell phone suddenly rang, and it was a call from Chen Kai.

"Hey, dad, my cousin and I will go back soon." Chen Mo thought it was Chen Kai asking them to go back for dinner, so he picked up and said directly.

"No, I'm in the hospital now, and Lao Jin suddenly died." What Chen Kai said was something completely unexpected by Chen Mo.

"But... isn't he out of danger?" Chen Mo was stunned while holding his cell phone. When they went to visit yesterday, the other person's condition was still very stable, and it didn't look like he was going to die at all.

"It is said that certain complications suddenly caused multiple organ failure. We are currently undergoing rescue operations. I don't know if they can be saved." Chen Kai's words made Chen Mo feel depressed - if the other party died for this reason, then his guess would be It can never be verified, and more importantly, Lu Wenyin may suffer another disaster.

"Did you go to the hospital specifically to see him today?" Chen Mo sorted out his thoughts. The information he had now was still very limited. Maybe Chen Kai would know more.

"Yes, there are some things that are not convenient to discuss on the phone. Let's talk about it when I get home." After Chen Kai finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

"What...what's wrong?" Looking at Chen Mo's gloomy expression, Chen Xinyang asked tentatively from the side.

"A friend of my dad's is critically ill, and the situation is a bit complicated." This matter is quite difficult to explain, and it has nothing to do with Chen Xinyang directly, so Chen Mo just said it briefly, and Chen Xinyang also knew that he was not Not wanting to talk any more, he sat obediently beside her and stopped making any sound.

When Chen Mo returned home, Chen Kai was already sitting in the living room.

"Go back to your room first, remember to wash up and wait for me to come up." Chen Mo ordered, patting Chen Xinyang's butt in the blind corner of Chen Kai's field of vision.

Chen Xinyang glanced at Chen Kai who was sitting on the sofa and did not dare to answer. He just nodded and ran up the stairs. Chen Mo changed his clothes and sat next to Chen Kai.

"I suspect that Lao Jin may not know about the compensation." Chen Kai's first words stunned Chen Mo on the spot.

"Huh?" Chen Mo couldn't follow his father's thoughts for a while.

"I asked your class teacher yesterday how much the compensation was, just to check with him today, but when I arrived at the hospital, others were already rescuing him." Chen Kai said with his fingers crossed in front of his chest and his chin on his hand.

"You mean, his children may have asked for more money without telling him?" Chen Mo's thoughts suddenly became clear.

"Yes, not many people may know about this. I overheard it once when I was fishing with him. Several of his children are not very successful and use him as a money pot, especially his eldest daughter-in-law. , always trying to get money from Lao Jin." What Chen Kai said combined with Chen Mo's previous conjecture made him seem to understand the true nature of the whole matter.

"Actually, I also have an idea." Chen Mo hesitated, but was about to say it out: "I think Uncle Jin might... commit suicide."

"Suicide?" This time it was Chen Kai's turn to be unable to follow the train of thought, but after thinking for a while, he quickly understood Chen Mo's train of thought: "You mean his gas station business is very poor, plus there are problems with his children. …”

Just when Chen Mo was about to speak again, his phone suddenly received a WeChat message from Lu Wenyin.

"Chen Mo, thank you for your help."

"you are welcome"

Chen Mo didn't understand what this meant at first, so he replied like this, but after sending it, he immediately realized that something wasn't right.

"Dad, please call your colleagues in the hospital quickly and ask them to find a family member of a patient on the 7th floor of your building whose mother attempted suicide and whose father couldn't bear the stimulation and fainted." Chen Mo picked up the car keys and ran out of the house quickly. , Chen Kai wanted to ask what happened, but after saying this, Chen Mo had already opened the door and walked out, so he had to pick up his mobile phone to contact his colleagues in the hospital as Chen Mo asked.

When Chen Mo drove to the hospital at the fastest speed in his life, Dr. Li Zhisong, who put him in the ambulance that day, was standing at the door waiting for him.

As soon as he saw Chen Mo, Dr. Li held Chen Mo's hand tightly and kept nodding, unable to say a word.

"Uncle Li, have you found the person my dad was talking about?" Chen Mo asked directly without waiting for the other party to organize his words.

"The other party nodded heavily twice, and then gave him a big hug. When Chen Mo saw his face again, a few tears had already flowed from the corners of the other party's eyes."

"Thanks to you, I would have had to take off my white coat today." After dozens of seconds, Li Zhisong said this after recovering from choking.

"So..." When Chen Mo heard this, he knew that what he was most worried about had not happened, and he had the idea to ask about the whole thing.

"When I received the call from your dad, I was the visiting doctor on that floor. When I found her, she had been squatting in the women's toilet cubicle and had already cut her wrists for several minutes. The cut was very deep. If she had been a few minutes later, she probably would have been saved. Not coming back." Li Zhisong didn't fully explain it, but Chen Mo understood the meaning - if someone committed suicide in the hospital during the time he was responsible for, he would definitely be responsible, but he, a male doctor, couldn't. Going to the women's restroom for inspection is really hard to prevent.

"Then where is he now?" Although Lu Wenyin's safety had been confirmed, he still wanted to see her to feel at ease.

"He has been rescued. I will take you there."

Lu Wenyin was lying in a single ward, but her hands and feet were tied with straps - this was usually used to immobilize patients, probably to prevent her from committing suicide again.

"Can I go in?" Chen Mo asked tentatively. He didn't know if Lu Wenyin could receive guests in her current state.

"Yes, but you must avoid irritating her. The patient is very emotionally unstable." Another doctor next to him said.Normally, non-relatives would not be allowed to visit in this situation, but he had just heard the whole story from Li Zhisong. On the one hand, he had a good impression of Chen Mo, and on the other hand, Chen Mo might be related to Lu Wenyin now. The nearest person had no choice but to sign his permission.

"Teacher Lu?" Chen Mo opened the door and walked to the hospital bed. He originally thought that Lu Wenyin was resting, but when he got closer, he realized that the other person was just looking at the ceiling in a daze, and there was no trace of brilliance in his eyes that were always shining with wisdom.

Lu Wenyin did not answer or make any move.

Chen Mo pulled a chair and sat down, tentatively holding Lu Wenyin's hand. The latter struggled subconsciously, but still made no other movements.

Chen Mo wanted to raise her hand, but had to give up because her wrist was fixed.

"Teacher Lu, I will help you." Chen Mo stood up again, lowered his upper body and looked directly into Lu Wenyin's eyes and said slowly.

At first, Lu Wenyin still didn't express anything, but after Chen Mo maintained this action for nearly 10 minutes, her eyes finally moved.

"No..." Lu Wenyin was about to speak when Chen Mo stretched out a finger and put it on her lips.

"Listen to me, I know what happened. But I have a way, trust me." Chen Mo tried his best to look into Lu Wenyin's eyes with firm eyes, although he could not verify his conjecture when Lao Jin was critically ill. But the top priority is to give Lu Wenyin enough confidence to prevent her from getting confused again.

After hearing these words, Lu Wenyin felt an inexplicable sense of security. Even though the person in front of her was just a student who was nearly ten years younger than her, she suddenly felt like "the person in front of her can be relied on."

In fact, Lu Wenyin's suicide was originally out of his mind. Lao Jin's children once again attacked Lu Wenyin because of his critical illness. They believed that there was something wrong with the previous situation and asked her to pay an additional 150 million yuan in compensation before they would re-sign the understanding. protocol.

Lu Wenyin, who was always in trouble, could not spare so much money at this time. She almost fainted from the rage, stumbled to the bathroom, and unconsciously took out a knife and cut her wrists to commit suicide.

Lu Wenyin, who had regained her senses, already had a weak desire to die, but she really didn't know how to face this desperate reality. But after hearing Chen Mo's confident words, a vague hope filled her heart.

After walking out of the ward, Chen Mo called Zheng Dunbai again.

"Hey, Chen Mo? What's the matter?"

"I promise to let my parents fully comply with your case handling requirements, and also allow my cousin to persuade Chen Shanyu to be a tainted witness." Chen Mo's words made Zheng Dunbai on the other end of the phone directly raise his volume. It could be heard that he was very surprised and excited. : "That's great, I..."

He was interrupted by Chen Mo halfway through his words: "But I want you to help investigate the case."

"Are you kidding me? I'm a policeman from Fujiang Province and I have no jurisdiction here?" Zheng Dunbai's voice calmed down and he replied awkwardly.

"I believe you must have a communication mechanism for police from different places. In short, if you don't help me, I can't guarantee that Chen Shanyu will cooperate with you." Chen Mo began to bargain with the other party.

Zheng Dunbai, a first-level police superintendent, could not be an ordinary role when he was sent alone to investigate such a big case. Although he didn't know what the specific explanation was, the resources he had at his disposal were definitely more than what appeared on the surface.

"Okay, tell me about the case first." Zheng Dunbai sighed and took a step back.

"About half a month ago, a drunk driver hit and injured a private gas station owner in the north of the city. This case also made local legal news. I hope to re-investigate." Chen Mo said, he knew that as long as the other party relaxed He said so, basically agreeing.

"Reason? Doubt? I can't just ask someone to re-investigate the case without any evidence." Zheng Dunbai's words seemed to indicate that the resources in his hands were indeed not simple, because the meaning of this sentence is that as long as there are enough reasons, he can The city bureau can be involved in re-investigating a case, which is simply unbelievable to a normal first-level police superintendent.

"The person who was hit has serious suicidal tendencies, and the doctor believes that he showed no signs of dodging when he was hit." Chen Mo had already thought of the reason. Anyway, Lao Jin couldn't speak for a short time at least, so Chen Mo Directly exaggerating some situations is not considered lying anyway.

"What's going on with the man who was hit now?" Zheng Dunbai scratched his head, feeling a little troubled. He hoped to have more direct doubts, so that the pressure he faced would be much less.

"Critically ill, but he was already out of danger. I don't know the reason now." Chen Mo also knew that this matter was more difficult for the other party, but based on the tone on the phone, he felt that the other party would eventually agree.

"Last time you asked me about a drunk driver who hit a man who committed suicide, was that about it?" Zheng Dunbai suddenly remembered a question that Chen Mo asked him when they were chatting alone in the hotel that day. At that time, he only thought it was the other person's Xianji I was bored and asked some unfamiliar legal questions, but I didn't expect that I was still on target.

"Yes, that's it. I originally wanted to ask Uncle Jin directly, but I just found out today that he is critically ill again." Chen Mo replied.

"Okay, but there won't be many resources. Unless we really find something suspicious, I'll go to the hospital now to check. Where is it?" Sure enough, after thinking about it for a few minutes, Zheng Dunbai sighed and agreed. Chen Mo's request, but then added: "No matter what the outcome is, you have to fulfill your promise to help us, especially to convince Chen Shanyu."

"Okay, sure. Now he and I are both at Lianyi Hospital. I'll wait for you." After Chen Mo finished speaking, he hung up the phone and sat down in the hospital lobby to wait for Zheng Dunbai's arrival.

Zheng Dunbai came very quickly. When he saw Chen Mo and walked next to him, the latter was explaining to Chen Kai what had just happened. It was not until he was tapped on the shoulder that he realized that the other party had been waiting for a while.

"So fast?" Chen Mo looked at Zheng Dunbai, who was wearing designer casual clothes. This guy didn't look like a policeman from any angle. If he hadn't seen him handling cases with other policemen, Chen Mo would have thought he was Xibei. goods.

"Tell me the specific situation?" Zheng Dunbai took off his hat and sat down.

"Have you eaten?" Chen Mo suddenly felt a little hungry - it was already noon when he and Chen Xinyang went home, and they went to the hospital again until now. It was already 01:30 in the afternoon. From breakfast until now, he was still Not a grain of rice has come in.

Chapter 97 Survey

"Of course I've eaten, and you don't even look at what time it is." Zheng Dunbai looked at the watch on his hand - it was a black Tudor, costing about 3 yuan, which was considered a relatively low-key brand. "But if you treat me, you can have some more." Zheng Dunbai rubbed his hair with the brim of his hat and looked at Chen Mo.

"Let's go, the snack street next to it is too expensive and I'm afraid something will happen to you." Chen Mo stood up and took Zheng Dunbai to the small shop recommended by Chen Kai.

"Tell me what's going on. You can't ask me to investigate this kind of thing for no reason." After a few plates of side dishes were served, Zheng Dunbai opened a bottle of Wong Lo Kat, took a slow sip, and raised his chopsticks to ask.

"Actually, this matter is not completely unrelated to the case you want to investigate." Chen Mo planned to try his best to connect the two things, so that the other party would work harder to investigate. "The person who hit him was the one I took to the police that day. My head teacher’s father, now my head teacher committed suicide because of this incident.”

"What?" Zheng Dunbai stood up from his chair when he heard this. Lu Wenyin is a very important witness. If she can't speak, many things will become very troublesome.
