What did Liu Chuande do?
How did he get involved with the police?
I subconsciously asked. Xie Chenghua was also puzzled. He shook his head and said, "I don't know. The police came and didn't say anything. They directly handcuffed him. Before they left, they told me that they were going to bring him back to cooperate with a criminal investigation.
I was also bewildered, so I didn't have time to ask for the details. When I got a hold of myself, they had already taken him away. "
I was a little restless as I paced back and forth. I felt sorry for Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande because of the hunchback woman. I had made them suffer a lot. Who would have thought that another problem would arise? It had only been a few days, and now, something had happened again.
The most important thing now was to find out what Liu Chuande had done. I stopped and wanted to ask Xie Chenghua, "Did Liu Chuande do anything strange lately?" However, before I could open my mouth, I suddenly remembered two things Xie Chenghua had told me when we had just returned to the city.
The first was about the hunchback woman, which had been solved. The second was related to the police!
Could Liu Chuande have been implicated because of that incident?
When I told Xie Chenghua my thoughts, his face changed. When he opened his mouth, his voice trembled.
"It's a big case involving dozens of lives. If Chuande is involved, it's going to be a big deal."
He looked frightened, and I didn't look good, either. This case wasn't just about dozens of lives. Although we didn't mention it, we both remembered the broken bronze mirror and the spontaneous combustion of the Golden Light Divine Talisman. At that time, I guessed that the Heavenly Master was involved in this case. Even if it wasn't the Heavenly Master, it had to be at the same level as the Heavenly Master. That was why I asked them not to mention it and not to care about it anymore.
I didn't deny that I was really scared.
I stood there and pondered for a long time. I comforted Xie Chenghua and asked him not to worry too much. I didn't know if he was involved in this case or not.
Then, I turned around and called Wang Yongjun.
If it was before, we wouldn't have needed Wang Yongjun's help. Whether it was me, Xie Chenghua, or Liu Chuande, our positions in the Metaphysics Society weren't low. The Metaphysics Society had always cooperated with the police.
But now, Xie Chenghua and Liu Chuande had been expelled from the Metaphysics Society, and I had become the Metaphysics Society's enemy. It would be hard for me to simply go to the police station to inquire about something.
I smiled wryly. When I was in the Metaphysics Association, I didn't think that this identity was very useful. Now that I didn't have this identity, I started to miss it.
The call went through quickly. I shook my head and put the distracting thoughts aside. I briefly told Wang Yongjun about it and asked him to help me inquire about it.
Wang Yongjun's power wasn't ordinary. After a few minutes, he called back. His voice was much heavier than before. He told me that Liu Chuande's case wasn't simple. He had asked a high ranking member of the Shenzhen Police Force to ask about it. He also asked him to use his connections to take care of Liu Chuande. However, the other side told me that Liu Chuande was involved in a big case, and that no information was allowed to be leaked. Not to mention taking care of him, they couldn't even reveal the details of the case.
After explaining the situation, Wang Yongjun asked me, "How deep is Liu Chuande's involvement in this case? If it's not too deep, he can use his connections in the province to see if he can solve this case."
At this moment, my face was completely dark. Although Wang Yongjun hadn't found a definite case, there weren't many cases in the country that could be classified as a major case by the police. Even the higher-ups of the police didn't dare to reveal the information. I was afraid that my worries would come true.
I didn't know if Liu Chuande was involved in this case or not, and I didn't dare to give Wang Yongjun an answer. After thinking for a while, I told him, "As long as you can ask someone to check the situation, it's fine. As for saving Liu Chuande, it's not urgent."
After hanging up, Xie Chenghua and I sat there, waiting for the news. This time, Wang Yongjun's efficiency wasn't good. I waited for a long time, but he didn't call me. I had to talk to Xie Chenghua, trying to find another way to investigate this case.
After chatting for a while, I thought of an idea.
According to Xie Chenghua, a woman came to my shop to ask for help. That was why Liu Chuande was involved.
The police didn't want to reveal the details of the case. However, since the woman wasn't in the police station, I could ask her about the situation.
After thinking it through, I quickly made up my mind. I asked Xie Chenghua to stay in the shop and wait for Wang Yongjun's call. I went out to find Yu Fuda's wife to ask about the situation.
When I left the shop, I sighed. From the day I learned about this case, I had been restless. Instinctively, I didn't want to have anything to do with this case. However, I had never thought that I would be involved in this case.
That day, when the woman came to my shop to ask for help, she had left her address. Moreover, it wasn't hard to find an orchard in the outskirts of the city. I took a taxi and soon arrived at the Fuda Fruit Tree Orchard in the outskirts of the city.
The taxi took me directly to the entrance of the orchard. After getting out of the car, I lifted my head and saw a sign that said, "Fuda Fruit Tree Plantation Limited Company." I could see that Yu Fuda's business wasn't small. He had a plantation, and he had even set up a company.
Unfortunately, the gate of the orchard was sealed by the Shenzhen Public Security Bureau. The entire orchard was sealed.
Yu Fuda's house was in the orchard. Since the orchard was sealed, his wife couldn't be at home.
I looked around, and soon, I found three contact numbers in the company profile at the entrance.
I called them one by one. The first phone was turned off, but the second one got through.
It was a woman who answered the call. I tried to ask. Fortunately, it was Yu Fuda's wife, Peng Huaiyun.
Perhaps it was because of this case, Peng Huaiyun sounded vigilant. "Why are you looking for her?"
I didn't directly tell her my purpose. Instead, I told her, "I'm from the Metaphysics world. I heard about this case from a friend. I think her husband is being controlled by some evil magic. I'm interested in this case, and I want to talk to her."
Peng Huaiyun kept silent for a while. I thought she was reluctant, but she quickly agreed. She told me the room number of a hotel in the city. She asked me to meet her there in one hour.
After hanging up, I called a taxi and headed straight to the city.
When I arrived at the hotel, I didn't go upstairs. I waited patiently in the lobby for around one hour before heading upstairs.
I quickly found the room number Peng Huaiyun had given me. However, after knocking on the door for a long time, no one answered.
I was a little hesitant. When I was about to call again, a woman's voice arose behind me.
"Are you Mister Zhang Wenli?"
I turned around and saw a slender woman in her fifties standing there. She wore amber-colored glasses, and her hair was pulled back into a bun on top of her head. She looked quite intellectual, like a university professor.
I nodded. "I'm Zhang Wenli. Are you Peng Huaiyun's sister?"
This case was related to the police, and it was possible that the Metaphysics Society was involved as well. Since my identity couldn't be exposed, I randomly used an alias on the phone.
Peng Huaiyun wasn't as vigilant as she appeared on the phone. She smiled and nodded at me. Then, she opened the door and invited me in.
It was a suite. I could see that Peng Huaiyun's financial status wasn't bad.
After we sat down on the sofa, Peng Huaiyun poured me a cup of tea. Then, she sat across from me. Before I could say anything, she asked with a smile, "Mister Zhang, the friend you mentioned must be Liu Chuande, right?"
I frowned. Peng Huaiyun smiled again. "Mister Zhang, don't misunderstand. I've only asked Mister Liu Chuande for help in my husband's case. The police have been trying to cover up the news. If Mister Zhang knows about it, you must have asked Mister Liu Chuande."
She was so coherent that I had to nod and tell her the truth.
"Yes, I am indeed Liu Chuande's friend. This case originally had nothing to do with us, but I don't know why the police suddenly took my friend away today. They said it was because of this case. I don't know the details of the case, so I wanted to ask you about it."
Peng Huaiyun didn't seem to be surprised that Liu Chuande was taken away by the police. The smile on his face didn't change at all. After a moment of silence, he said to me, "Actually, I just came back from the police station. I already know about Mr. Liu's situation. Mr. Zhang, you came in such a hurry to find out about the situation because you want to save Mr. Liu, right?"
I nodded. "Of course."
