Chapter 1871: So That’s What Happened
Principal Chen, who was angry because of Ye Jian’s mother’s matter, said with a sneer, “His move showed his guilty conscience! It also shows that there is indeed someone behind the jade pendant who is secretly supporting him.”
“Just now, I talked about Tong Zhou Police Department Director Cai suspected that Martyr Sun Xueqing had been “sacrificed”, and I also said that all her life deeds in the army were erased… Major Xia, with your cleverness, you should know why I didn’t directly say that I doubt Ye Zhifan.”
Xia Jinyuan, whose face was already cold, replied solemnly, “Because you want to bring out the murderer who killed her mother because at this stage you know that the identity of this murderer is definitely not simple, because he still has the ability to protect Ye Zhifan since he was a village official to now a provincial official!”
Speaking of Ye Zhifan, the young major’s dark eyes were excited, “And I investigated Ye Zhifan a long time ago and found that there was someone behind him, but I still don’t have any hint about that man. It also shows that this man’s identity is not simple. It is deeply hidden!”
“There is one more thing I need to tell you. Ye Zhifan has already got on line with my family’s rival, the Du family. The Du family’s chief of staff and my dad hadn’t seen things eye to eye since young.”
Chief of staff!
Principal Chen, whose face changed drastically, asked in surprise, “General Staff?”
“Yes, the general staff, but it’s the deputy.” Xia Jinyuan nodded, his thin lips pressed tightly, and the coldness around him grew deeper, “It’s quite surprising that he has a relationship with the Du family.”
“Chief of Staff Du’s eldest son, Du Kaiwei, is the brigade commander in the Nanguang Military Region. He was targeted after participating in a village-wide drug elimination and suppression operation. When he was out for a meal, he was suddenly besieged with a knife, and it was Ye Zhifan who saved him.”
“If that knife hadn’t been blocked by Ye Zhifan, it would have directly cut Du Kaiwei’s neck, and he would be killed on the spot.”
“Hearing you talk about this jade pendant. Now I have doubts about this coincidence… Was it really a coincidence? Or was it planned?”
“It is too coincidental. Of all people he could have saved, he saved the eldest son of Chief of Staff Du, who is my family’s enemy.”
Principal Chen replied softly, “You mean,…the person behind the jade pendant knows that the Du family and Xia family have issues with each other, so he deliberately let Ye Zhifan get in touch with the Du family! “
“Yes, at first I didn’t think much about it, but after you mentioned the jade pendant, it gave me some doubts. Ye Jian was adopted by Ye Zhifan’s family back then. He didn’t just beat or scold her; he wanted to raise a smart girl like her into useless trash.”
“Uncle Chen, what does this mean? It means that someone instructed Ye Zhifan to raise Ye Jian badly!”
“They intentionally let the comrade who was in the same unit as Martyr Sun Xueqing tell Director Cai and the others that Ye Jian died drowning because that person did not want others to know about Ye Jian’s existence.”
“But that person had scruples and had no choice but to keep Ye Jian alive. But he was very unwilling. Even if he kept Ye Jian alive, he only wanted to see her future ruined, so he instructed Ye Zhifan to raise her terribly.”
Xia Jinyuan was terrifying. His logical thinking and analytical ability were so rigorous, like a net. He wouldn’t miss anything that fell into his net as long as he could string the events together.
He had just combined what Principal Chen and Director Cai had said, together with various doubts he had about Ye Zhifan, throwing out his thoughts one after another. What’s more, his thoughts were not whimsical but supported with reasons, facts, and analysis!
