Chapter 5276: Investigation |
Commander Xia wasn’t worried about Li Ronghuan suddenly mentioning that Madam Li was the one who killed Li Chuhai. He was worried that Ye Jian would be implicated.
If it weren’t for Ye Jian, they wouldn’t have investigated what happened 20 years ago.
Ye Jian played a crucial role in bringing Li Chuhai to justice.
The Li family had been secretly investigating who ’killed’ Li Chuhai. They even sent people to Ye Jian’s hometown to investigate. Fortunately, they were prepared and had erased all the information about the martyr Red Plum. That was why the people Old Master Li sent didn’t find anything.
Almost three years had passed. It had been more than a year since Ye Jian graduated from the military school. Li Ronghuan, who returned to the country with a goal, suddenly brought up the past. In the end, he even angered Old Master Li to death. Commander Xia had to be wary.
They couldn’t get anything out of the doctors and nurses.
The only people from whom they could pry the truth out were the workers guarding the entrance of the ICU to take care of Old Master Li. Commander Xia wanted to see if they could pry anything out of them.
Commander Xia was still investigating the truth when Li Jinnian, who returned to his dormitory to rest in the afternoon, took off his training uniform and went to the attached bathroom to take a shower. He took a green towel to dry his hair. His upper body was bare as he walked to the wardrobe and took out a clean short-sleeved shirt.
His cold gaze inadvertently glanced at the phone that hadn’t been turned on for a few days. He pursed his thin lips slightly and picked up the phone that had been sitting there for a few days.
This was his personal cell phone number. Besides the people closest to him, no one would disturb him. Hence, even though his cell phone had not been turned on for a few days, he only received a few messages.
The second and third messages appeared. Li Jinnian, who always had a good memory, immediately recognized the number.
He pressed the phone button with his fingers. Two messages with a lot of information entered his eyes. They came so suddenly that his pupils constricted.
The head of the Li family, his grandpa, passed away this morning. He didn’t die of illness. Instead, he was... angered to death.
The news came too suddenly. Li Jinnian had already forgotten the first message. After reading the two messages, Li Jinnian, who was only wearing a short-sleeved shirt, broke out in a cold sweat.
It was said that the old master found out why Li Chuhai’s case from 20 years ago could still be investigated again and in the end, he was killed. It was said that Li Ronghuan deliberately provoked the old man and made him think that Li Chuhai was killed by Madam Li. The reason was... Madam Li was the only person in the family who had come into contact with the person who brought Li Chuhai to justice.
Old Master Li, who had been unable to accept the fact that his youngest son was killed at sea, was already weak and could not be stimulated anymore. However, the results of Li Ronghuan’s investigation were too stimulating. He could not catch his breath and died.
Li Jinnian could accept everything else, including Old Master Li’s death.
The only unacceptable thing was that Li Ronghuan found out that Madam Li was the only person in the Li family who had come into contact with the person who brought Li Chuhai to justice.
This person was none other than his only cousin, Ye Jian!
Li Jinnian, who remembered Li Ronghuan’s cell phone number but had never taken the initiative to contact him, immediately contacted Li Ronghuan. He needed to confirm if Li Ronghuan had found out about his cousin, Ye Jian! He needed to know if Li Ronghuan had said Ye Jian’s name in front of the Li family.
