As Su Mu tirelessly scoured various locations, fully committed to tracking down the remnants of the elusive Xuanming Sect, an astonishing case quietly unfolded far away in Jianghai City.
The chairman of a large and prestigious corporation, Li Wenbo, suddenly collapsed and died without warning in his own residence.
Li Wenbo was a prominent figure in Jianghai City's business community, with assets amounting to billions, making him a significant tycoon in the region.
The news of his sudden death sent shockwaves throughout the city, stirring up a storm of speculation and concern.
The police took this matter very seriously and quickly intervened to conduct a thorough investigation.
However, what was perplexing was that the crime scene revealed no substantial key evidence.
After meticulous examination by senior forensic experts within the team, the preliminary conclusion determined that Li Wenbo had died from a sudden heart attack.
Yet, as the police delved deeper into the investigation, an astonishing fact began to surface: it turned out that Li Wenbo had been in good health and had no history of heart disease.
Moreover, during a comprehensive search of Li Wenbo's residence, the police discovered a series of suspicious clues that raised eyebrows.
All these signs seemed to silently suggest a terrifying truth—Li Wenbo's death was no accident; it was likely a meticulously planned and deliberate act of murder!
Captain Zhao, who was responsible for the case, understood the gravity and complexity of the situation. He did not dare to delay and immediately reported all current findings in detail to Su Mu, who was busy elsewhere. He also provided a thorough briefing to Ye Qiu, known within the precinct as a brilliant detective.
Upon hearing this information, Su Mu furrowed his brow tightly, pondering to himself, "This case seems far more complicated than it appears!" Without hesitation, he decided to rush back to Jianghai City, determined to use his keen insight and exceptional intelligence to uncover the truth behind this perplexing case.
After a taxing journey, Su Mu finally arrived in Jianghai City.
He wasted no time resting and hurriedly headed to Li Wenbo's residence with Ye Qiu.
Once inside the room, both men focused intently on conducting a detailed examination of the crime scene.
As time ticked away and everyone was on the verge of giving up hope, suddenly Su Mu's eyes lit up as if he had discovered something significant. Excitedly, he exclaimed, "Look here!" Following his pointed finger, they noticed some subtle traces hidden in an inconspicuous corner.
The traces left behind were precisely the important details that the police had previously overlooked.
Then, Ye Qiu turned thoughtfully to Captain Zhao beside her and asked, “Captain Zhao, have you looked into Li Wenbo's recent social interactions?”
Captain Zhao nodded in response, saying, “Of course. After our thorough investigation, we found that Li Wenbo hasn't had any intense conflicts with anyone recently. Moreover, his social circle is quite straightforward. Aside from his business partners, the rest are just ordinary friends and family.”
Hearing this, Ye Qiu pressed further, “So, do all of his business partners, friends, and relatives have solid alibis?”
Captain Zhao pondered for a moment before slowly replying, “Regarding that issue, we are still verifying each one. However, so far, we haven't detected anything suspicious.”
Ye Qiu nodded slightly in acknowledgment but kept her lips sealed, not uttering a word.
She then continued her meticulous search in Li Wenbo's home like a keen hound, harboring a glimmer of hope to uncover some crucial clues.
At that moment, Ye Qiu's gaze was drawn magnetically to a photograph.
In the picture, Li Wenbo was smiling, with a young woman nestled beside him.
The woman was beautiful and elegant, exuding a graceful demeanor. Despite this, Su Mu felt an uncanny familiarity with her. “Who is this lady?” Su Mu asked, pointing directly at the woman in the photo with confusion.
After a moment of thought, Ye Qiu replied, “This woman is Li Wenbo's secretary, named Lin Xue. We have already spoken with her regarding related matters. According to her, their relationship is merely that of a typical superior and subordinate.”
“Lin Xue...” Su Mu murmured the name softly, furrowing his brow as he fell into deep thought, seemingly trying hard to recall any impressions related to this name and person.
“This name sounds so familiar; could it be that I’ve interacted with her before...” Su Mu pondered quietly while struggling to remember past encounters. Suddenly, a spark of inspiration struck him like lightning.
He slapped his forehead as memories surged back like a tide, finally recalling who Lin Xue was.
Wasn't she the woman who frequently interacted with the enigmatic members of the Xuanming Sect in bustling Yuncheng?
Upon realizing this, Su Mu's expression instantly turned grave. His brows furrowed tightly, and his gaze was as sharp as a blade. He turned to Captain Zhao and instructed in a low voice, "Captain Zhao, we must act immediately. We need to apprehend Lin Xue at once! I suspect she may have deep connections with the Xuanming Sect!"
Hearing this, Captain Zhao was taken aback. He understood the gravity of the situation; if Lin Xue was indeed linked to the Xuanming Sect, the consequences would be unimaginable. Without hesitation, he nodded in agreement, saying, "Understood! Rest assured, Team Leader Su, I will take my team to handle it right away!" With that, Captain Zhao swiftly turned and gathered his officers, racing towards Lin Xue's residence.
Before long, police cars screeched to a halt outside Lin Xue's apartment building. Captain Zhao led the charge as they burst into Lin Xue's home.
Inside, Lin Xue was sitting on the sofa, seemingly unaware of the impending arrest.
When she saw the police officers suddenly storm in, her face showed a moment of shock, but she quickly regained her composure.
Thus, Lin Xue was taken back to the police station's interrogation room without incident. However, when faced with the police's questioning, she remained tight-lipped, refusing to divulge any information about her relationship with the Xuanming Sect.
So, is Lin Xue truly a member of the Xuanming Sect?
If so, why would she resort to murder against Li Wenbo?
And behind this seemingly simple case, could there be deeper and more astonishing conspiracies lurking?
Everything remains an unknown...
