The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor
Chapter 239 - 239 238 Reinforcements

239: Chapter 238 Reinforcements 239: Chapter 238 Reinforcements Watching Liu Hun respond to Wang Bing’s return one by one, Xiao Yanzi and Ren Peiling both relaxed, genuinely worried that Wang Bing might have pressed Liu Hun or that Liu Hun was indeed involved in this matter.

Secretary Zhou took advantage of the crowd’s focus on Liu Hun to sidle up to Li Tianyang like a slick eel and said, “Secretary Li, it doesn’t look like this kid did it.

Now that Chen Yuanxin is dead, what are we going to do?”

“Chen Yuanxin’s belongings should still be around.

I wonder if they fell into Wang Bing’s hands?” Li Tianyang said to Xiao Zhou, his gaze as piercing as insecticide, clearly wanting to spray Liu Hun, that locust, to death.

Wang Bing recorded Liu Hun’s words without a change in expression and then took a small plastic bag from a police officer behind him and said to Liu Hun, “Mr.

Liu, one last question.

We found this in the home of the deceased, Chen Yuanxin, and it has your fingerprints on it, as well as content related to you.

So…”

“Secretary Cai!

What brings you here?” Xiao Yanzi, standing not far from the doorway, recognized Cai Yilan at a glance.

His presence meant that the merger of the three villages was almost a sure bet.

Cai Yilan’s sudden appearance, like a true deity entering an earth temple, caused the people in the meeting room to warmly invite Cai Yilan and his entourage inside.

“Secretary Cai, you’re inspecting the work in Anchang County, why didn’t you notify us in advance so that we could properly prepare for your welcome?” Li Tianyang said to Cai Yilan with a grin, more enthusiastic than if he had seen his own father who had passed away years ago.

Cai Yilan remained composed, as unaffected by the place as always, waved his hand to Li Tianyang and said, “The provincial committee’s inspection team is conducting in-depth grassroots investigations, and we shouldn’t arrange or notify in advance.

Continue with your meeting, we will just listen in.”

Ren Peiling was no fool.

Seeing Cai Yilan come in, she was shocked.

It wasn’t her place as a mere Mayor to flatter, but she wanted to clear up one thing and so she slipped to Liu Hun’s side and asked, “The text you sent earlier, was it to Secretary Cai?”

“More or less.” Liu Hun said to Ren Peiling with a smile.

In fact, he had sent it to Cai Yan; he wasn’t so foolish as to go directly to Cai Yilan, a high official.

Using his trust without a sure footing would be certain trouble, like stepping on wet cement stairs, ensuring that both foot and shoe would be stuck.

But once settled, it would be a solid pathway upwards.

Liu Hun knew that his relationship with Cai Yilan, or rather Cai Yilan’s trust in him, wasn’t strong enough to have Cai Yilan help him out openly.

Direct messages to Cai Yilan would only cause Cai Yilan to judge him, so he took a detour by contacting Cai Yan.

The effect?

Bang on!

Li Tianyang had clearly understood Wang Bing’s words by now.

With Cai Yilan present, he planned to make Liu Hun’s backing into the Five Finger Mountain, completely suppressing Liu Hun!

“Ahem!

Everyone, please take your seats again.” Li Tianyang gestured to everyone, seizing the moment to display his leadership and command abilities, then said to Wang Bing, “Officer Wang, proceed!

Don’t be afraid!

Don’t hesitatel!

The provincial committee’s inspection team is here!

Just ask away!

Speak out!”

Wang Bing sneakily glanced at Cai Yilan several times.

If it weren’t for today’s unforeseen incident, he probably would have only seen such a high-level official on television for the rest of his life.

With the VIP present, he had to perform well.

He puffed up his chest and continued questioning Liu Hun, “Mr.

Liu, one last question.

We found this in the home of the deceased, Chen Yuanxin, and it has your fingerprints on it, as well as content related to you.

Therefore, we have significant suspicions about your involvement in Chen Yuanxin’s death!”

This Wang Bing!

Is he playing games?

Why didn’t he just say it straight earlier and instead go such a roundabout way?

Now what?

Could it really be Liu Hun who committed the murder?

No, no, no, he had already made arrangements, so why would he go out of his way to kill someone?

Ren Peiling was anxiously thinking, nearly about to pee herself, today realizing that whenever she got impatient with Liu Hun, that’s when accidents happened!

This man was to blame!

Cai Yilan was quite shocked, coaxed and persuaded into coming to Anchang County, only to arrive and stumble upon Liu Hun, whom he admired, involved in a murder case.

He hurriedly gestured to Xiao Yanzi, who was closest to him, calling her over to ask for clarity.

The content is related to me…

Liu Hun’s mind was like a slideshow, flashing with many thoughts, but eventually, a smile appeared on his face as he said to Wang Bing, “May I take a look at this item?”

“You may, but only through the plastic bag.” Wang Bing nodded to Liu Hun, clutching the plastic bag cautiously.

Liu Hun pinched a corner of the plastic bag and then glanced at both sides of the USB drive.

When he withdrew his hand, the smile on his face thickened; he had already confirmed two things.

First, the USB drive indeed was the one hidden in Chen Yuanxin’s home.

Second, whatever contents it held were no longer important now.

After hearing Wang Bing’s words, Xiao Zhou and Li Tianyang were both so excited they were almost shivering.

This was definitely the voyeuristic content stolen by Chen Yuanxin, and now it was linked to a murder case; this was like a stain in Liu Hun’s underwear—whether it was shit or not, it still looked like shit!

“I’m certain I’ve seen this thing and have touched it.

At that time, the little device was just lying on the coffee table at Chen Yuanxin’s place.

Officer Zhao and I dropped by for a visit, and out of boredom, I fiddled with it.

That’s all there is to it!” Liu Hun said to Wang Bing with an indifferent smile, which clearly read as seven words—harmless to humans and animals, it wasn’t me!

“Comrade Liu Hun, faced with ironclad evidence, your behavior now resembles that of a street ruffian.

Moreover, the provincial committee inspection team is also here, why can’t you just honestly confess what you should and cooperate with the investigation?

Perhaps, you could be granted a lenient treatment,” Li Tianyang frowned as he imparted his earnest advice to Liu Hun, his face appeared so anguished, one might really think he was looking out for Liu Hun.

“So, Secretary Li really intends to stamp me and send me off to the slaughterhouse, eh?

You play the role of the smiling butcher quite well,” Liu Hun sneered at Li Tianyang and, without waiting for a response, continued, “Secretary Li keeps instructing me to come clean.

How about…

we both take a look at what’s on this USB drive and see if it really has anything to do with me, Liu Hun?”

Ha!

Isn’t this just like a grasshopper jumping into the frying pan—asking for trouble!

Li Tianyang thought to himself with amusement, then said to Wang Bing, “Officer Wang, it seems Comrade Liu Hun has some doubts about your team’s ability to handle cases and gather evidence.

Maybe you should…” As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Cai Yilan a few times for Wang Bing to see.

Wang Bing, of course, understood what Li Tianyang meant; he could not afford to lose face in front of a secretary.

So, he said to Liu Hun, “Since Mr.

Liu questions our police’s investigative and evidence-gathering capabilities, we will make an exception and let you have a look!”

As a loyal lackey, Secretary Zhou hastily prepared everything.

To ensure Liu Hun’s downfall would be even more satisfying, he specifically chose the largest projector available.

Cai Yilan listened to Xiao Yanzi’s statement and nodded slightly.

Although Xiao Yanzi’s account was absolutely favorable for Liu Hun, as a Governor, he still had his own judgment.

If the USB drive had Liu Hun’s fingerprints, and if the content turned out to be unfavorable to him, then he would become the prime suspect.

Cai Yilan took a deep breath and rested his hands on his crossed knees, silently thinking to himself, Young man, you’d better not disappoint me!

Xiao Yanzi made a biased statement in favor of Liu Hun for Cai Yilan.

She was certain that someone who had climbed up to a secretary’s position could detect her partiality; it was a gamble, betting her future and fate.

She understood all too well that opportunities to pick sides in official circles were rare, but if you chose correctly, it meant soaring to the skies.

Choose wrongly, and it would be a downfall from which one could never recover.

Xiao Yanzi secretly hoped that if the contents of the device had nothing to do with Liu Hun, Cai Yilan’s trust in Liu Hun would only increase, not decrease.

She would immediately propose the merger of the three villages, certain to gain Cai Yilan’s approval.

But as a criminal investigation officer, could Wang Bing make a mistake?

Since he had already stated that the content was related to Liu Hun, obviously, he must have seen it himself.

The matter was already set in stone.

Why should I even bother…

Ah!

Liu Hun, you’ve really thrown me off balance!

Xiao Yanzi stared hard at the projector screen, which was still blank, her heart torn with an unease she had never experienced before.

Ren Peiling didn’t have such an intense ambition for career advancement; her thoughts were simple—as long as Liu Hun was fine, that was enough.

As soon as Xiao Zhou got everything ready, Li Tianyang, like a person eager for a feast during New Year’s, couldn’t wait to throw Liu Hun into the slaughterhouse.

He said to Wang Bing, “Officer Wang, please go ahead!”

Wearing gloves, Wang Bing carefully touched as little of the USB drive’s surface as possible before inserting it into the player.

The projector screen instantly responded.

Everyone was waiting expectantly.

At this moment, each person watched as if they were treasure hunters.

With one dig, whether it turned out to be a treasure or a dead man’s bones, all would be revealed!

“Squeak squeak squeak…

chirp chirp chirp…” The projector screen suddenly emitted strange sounds, but there was not a single image to be seen—instead, there was just a flurry of static, a vast swath of white flickering like an old TV with a lost signal.
