Chapter 351: Chapter 351 Behind the Scenes Suspicions

"You wouldn’t be having any ideas about me, would you?"

Chen Dashan asked with a playful grin, as Sun Aoxue put on her trousers with tears in her eyes and roared, "Dream on! If it wasn’t for you, would my police car have broken down? Would I have had to take the mountain roads?"

"Keep talking nonsense, and I’ll put you away for two years."

After speaking, Sun Aoxue ignored Chen Dashan and turned to walk ahead.

Watching her retreating figure, Chen Dashan’s gaze fell on her peachy butt, thinking to himself that she’d developed quite nicely, full of feminine charm.

The two of them walked until past noon, climbing over mountains and hills until they finally made it out, and at the entrance to the mountain road, they flagged down a car and returned to Furong County.

"Buzz buzz..."

"Buzz buzz!"

Once they reached an area with a signal, Chen Dashan’s phone vibrated incessantly, bombarded with missed call alerts and various messages.

Sun Aoxue’s phone was the same, the police station nearly blew up her phone with calls.

"I’ll go return a call," Chen Dashan said, to which Sun Aoxue didn’t follow, nodding instead, "I’ll wait here for you. Be quick, and don’t even think about running away. I have a hundred ways to catch you."

Chen Dashan completely ignored what she had just said and turned to walk to the side of the street to call back County Magistrate Zhu.

"Beep beep..."

The call was quickly answered, and County Magistrate Zhu’s familiar voice came through, "Chen Dashan?"

With a tone of surprise, Chen Dashan hurriedly said, "I was being chased by a gang, just got back from the mountain roads, there was no signal in the mountains." Chen Dashan explained, and County Magistrate Zhu replied, "The incident involving you has been escalating, even Director Zhang from the Wu’an Bureau has gotten involved. Although we’re not afraid of him, this needs to be resolved quickly. There’s already pressure from above. The situation isn’t looking good with the increase in deaths causing panic and rumors that I can’t hold back. I’m giving you three days to handle this, otherwise, we might have to hold off on the slum clearance project."

Chen Dashan had already anticipated this kind of situation.

He quickly said, "I’ll take care of it as fast as I can."

The two discussed for a few more moments before hanging up the call.

Seeing Chen Dashan end the call, Sun Aoxue crossed her arms and tilted her chin up, "Are you done? Can we go now?"

One in front and the other behind, they finally arrived at the police station.

"Chen Dashan has come!"

Someone exclaimed, and all eyes in the office hall swiftly turned towards him, casting a strange atmosphere, causing Chen Dashan to slightly frown.

"The prime suspect now is Chen Dashan, all the dead were connected to him..."

"I heard that Yan Dazhi had been opposing Chen Dashan right from the start."

"Keep it down, why would Chen Dashan come to the police station?"

"I heard that employees of Chen Dashan’s company are resigning en masse, it’s having a big impact..."

The crowd murmured quietly among themselves, and Chen Dashan frowned slightly. Another death?

No wonder County Magistrate Zhu was so concerned, and the deceased was Yan Dazhi, a prominent figure in Furong County.

"It’s Chen Dashan, it has to be Chen Dashan, he must have killed my father! Just a few days ago, my dad brought me to the police station to testify for Qin Lan. It must be Chen Dashan holding a grudge and waiting for the right moment to take revenge. He killed my dad, officer, it has to be him!"

The familiar voice cried out urgently, filled with tears.

Chen Dashan looked up, and in the corner of the lobby, he saw Yan Shao pale with a horrified gaze fixed on him.

With his words, Chen Dashan instantly became the focus within the police station, as countless scrutinizing eyes began to size him up.

"What do you mean?"

Sun Aoxue turned to Yan Shao and countered.

A nearby male officer said, "Just now, Yan Dazhi was murdered at the company. The murderer was brutal; Yan Dazhi’s cervical spine was shattered, strangled to death. We are currently taking Young Master Yan’s statement."

"Are you certain he died just now?"

Sun Aoxue inquired.

The male officer glanced at Yan Shao and continued, "The forensic has determined he died less than an hour ago, and as soon as the incident happened, Yan Shao called the police. By the time we arrived at the scene, we brought him back with us."

Sun Aoxue nodded thoughtfully, already forming a judgment in her mind.

"Chen Dashan, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have been targeted by Qin Xuan because of you. Please let me go. My dad is already dead. It was all his doing, all his fault. It has nothing to do with me. Please don’t kill me, don’t kill me..." Yan Shao was so frightened that he nearly wet himself, shaking all over as he fixed his eyes on Chen Dashan, nearly ready to kneel and beg for mercy.

The people at the station were speechless, having seen those who fear death, but none like Yan Shao’s extreme dread.

His father was dead, yet he knew to protect himself, pushing all the blame onto Yan Dazhi. Onlookers viewed him with disdain. Seeing Chen Dashan staying silent, Yan Shao continued to cry out, "As long as you let me go, I will give you all the Yan Family’s wealth, all of it."

"I’ll disappear from now on; I will never dare to oppose you again. I beg you, please let me go!"

Recalling how Yan Dazhi had died, Yan Shao was overtaken by utter fear, his eyes wide and body trembling.

"What nonsense are you spouting?" Sun Aoxue stepped forward, frowning and glaring at Yan Shao, "Chen Dashan was with me the whole time just now. He couldn’t possibly be the killer."

At these words, everyone’s gaze suddenly shifted to Chen Dashan.

"Since it wasn’t me who killed him, may I leave now? The incident has had a major impact, and I assure you that I will find the killer within three days. If I can’t find the killer after three days, you can come to arrest me at any time," Chen Dashan promised. Sun Aoxue furrowed her brows, "At the police station, you are safe. These people are clearly targeting you; I can’t guarantee your safety once you leave the station."

"Can you guarantee it?"

Chen Dashan countered.

Remembering how Chen Dashan had fought off the assassin with his remarkable skills, Sun Aoxue blushed slightly.

"Let him go back, County Magistrate Zhu just called." Director Geng finished speaking, his gaze resting on Chen Dashan, "You only have three days. Right now, Furong County is in turmoil. County Magistrate Zhu is also under enormous pressure for the three days he secured for you. Chen Dashan, if the issue isn’t resolved in three days, Wu’an Bureau will get involved, and you know what that means."

"Thanks."

Chen Dashan didn’t linger and strode out of the police station.

"Wait for me!" Behind him, Sun Aoxue pursued relentlessly, catching up with Chen Dashan, who turned and said, "Why are you following me?"

"Of course, to monitor you. You’re the prime suspect right now; I need to have you in my sight at all times, to see what tricks you might pull," Sun Aoxue declared with confidence, but Chen Dashan paid her no mind.

"Beep beep beep..."

A black Land Rover was parked at the entrance of the station, its horn beeping continuously. Wu Hongling’s head poked out from the car window, waving at Chen Dashan, "Master, over here."

Chen Dashan and Sun Aoxue got into the car.

Wu Hongling spoke up, "Master, Yan Dazhi was just killed. The officers have been investigating several of our companies’ names, and not just the clients, even our employees have run off. Now the whole Furong County is in panic, and it’s greatly affecting our business. Could Zhao Ding be behind this? Isn’t this just like stabbing us in the back?"
