Chapter 4200 - 4188: Silencing Witnesses

Chapter 4200: Chapter 4188: Silencing Witnesses

"It’s still the same issue, he was too composed."

Lin Yi recalled Wang Dongliang’s attitude at the time.

No matter how he thought about it, it felt off.

He didn’t want to gamble on a low-probability event.

Wang Dongliang’s demeanor didn’t fit the logical chain of this case.

For this reason, Lin Yi always felt that Wang Dongliang had problems.

He might not be the mastermind, but he likely knew something.

Thinking about what Lin Yi said and Wang Dongliang’s state at the time.

After thinking for a long while, Wang Shuting realized this was something she had long overlooked.

"According to what you say, Wang Dongliang has problems."

"I didn’t say he definitely has problems, just that there’s a high probability. If possible, we should make a move on him."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi said:

"I think we should hold off on him for now."

Wang Shuting was puzzled, not understanding Lin Yi’s seemingly contradictory statements.

"If Wang Dongliang has no problems, doing this is fine. But if he does have problems, acting now may tip them off."

"Tip them off?"

Wang Shuting looked at Lin Yi in surprise, "You mean there’s someone more mysterious hiding behind?"

Lin Yi nodded, "If you think about it from another angle, it makes sense."

After a pause, Lin Yi said slowly:

"Forget about Wang Wenli for now, or rather, put her last. Suppose someone, for certain reasons, hired killers. If Wang Dongliang knew something about this somehow, he would anticipate that something would happen to Wang Wenli, which explains why he was so calm upon learning of her death."

"Secondly, there are doubts about the statements from three suspects. They said they targeted Wang Wenli for money. But the question is, why did they choose Wang Wenli?"

"Wang Wenli is beautiful."

"But their ultimate purpose was financial gain," Lin Yi said:

"In the apartment building, there are many merchants with cash easily transferrable. If they truly wanted money, they could directly target them."

"Moreover, Wang Wenli’s death was extremely tragic, yet there weren’t many signs of disturbance at the scene. You say they did it for money, but I find that hard to believe."

Changing his posture, Lin Yi continued:

"Considering the scene, it’s likely they targeted Wang Wenli to kill, but at the moment, lust overcame them, resulting in what happened there."

"Additionally, if you carefully look at the surveillance video I provided, you’ll notice they suddenly appeared at Fenglin International. If they were there for money, targeting Wang Wenli, they would need to scope the place out in advance. However, the surveillance didn’t capture their presence, indicating a high probability what they said is false."

Lin Yi looked at Wang Shuting, "Think again, given the circumstances, doesn’t all the doubt now make sense?"

Wang Shuting furrowed her brows, contemplating Lin Yi’s words.

Based on his logical thinking, there was indeed no problem, and all doubts matched up.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I’m seriously suspecting you were once in our line of work."

"Not really, just discussing these points, and you think I’m in your line of work?"

"The insights you provided are hard to analyze this thoroughly and meticulously without experience in our field."

"Maybe I just have a knack for it."

"You’re just faking it."

In Wang Shuting’s view, Lin Yi’s background was definitely not simple, but since he didn’t want to say, she refrained from asking.

However, Lin Yi’s words kept echoing in Wang Shuting’s mind.

Following his reasoning, those three people might just be thugs, with someone surely guiding them from behind.

As for who the mastermind is, it’s still unclear, nor are the motives for killing Wang Wenli.

Currently, there are two breakthrough points, the three suspects, and Wang Dongliang.

But Lin Yi is right, if Wang Dongliang is interrogated too frequently, it could alert others, making it unrealistic to catch whoever is behind him.

Therefore, the primary target to crack is those three suspects.

Pry open their mouths and dig out more information.

Hours later, a truck arrived at the station, and Wang Shuting and Zhao Jingcheng took the three suspects away from the station.

Just like when they boarded, their appearance attracted much attention, with people turning their heads.

Such scenes are rarely seen in daily life, after all.

Arriving at the parking lot, Zhao Jingcheng opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat.

Since it was a seven-seater, they could sit five people in the rear comfortably, with Lin Yi and Wang Shuting and the three suspects in the back.

"Tingting, isn’t it cramped with all of you sitting in the back?" Zhao Jingcheng said.

"No worries, it’s not cramped, just right to keep an eye on them."

Seeing Wang Shuting say this, Zhao Jingcheng’s expression turned cold, and he strapped on the seatbelt with a stiff face and drove off.

To alleviate Wang Shuting’s pressure, Lin Yi and two of the suspects sat in the back row.

Initially, everything seemed normal.

But after leaving the airport, Lin Yi realized the three suspects were acting strangely.

They were constantly looking around, although their actions weren’t very obvious, they all seemed to subconsciously glance outside as if searching for something.

With sharp intuition, Lin Yi sensed something was wrong.

From the county to the train station, then from the train station to Zhong Hai, their demeanor was stable, without such occurrences.

But after getting off the train, their state seemed off.

To Lin Yi, this was very unusual.

Instinctively, he glanced backward, suddenly noticing a freight truck following from behind, moving quickly.

Suddenly!

A chill ran down Lin Yi’s spine; he already guessed what was about to happen.

"Quick, accelerate! Quick! Drive up to 130!"

His guess was right, the hidden people behind were ready to silence them at this time!

"What are you yelling about like a ghost." Zhao Jingcheng said impatiently:

"How I drive is my business, not yours."

"Moron, someone is coming to silence us, if you don’t want to die, drive faster!"

"Silence?!"

Upon hearing the word silence, Wang Shuting and Zhao Jingcheng paused.

Due to their line of work, they were very familiar with such things.

Instinctively, they looked out of the window at that gradually approaching freight truck, realizing something was amiss.

"Speed up!"

The truck’s speed certainly wouldn’t match a car’s, as long as the speed was increased, there wouldn’t be problems.

Zhao Jingcheng accelerated, while Wang Shuting called on her phone to alert the relevant authorities and intercept the freight truck.

Lin Yi squinted his eyes.

Cunning!
