Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 757 An Irresistible Condition

"He didn't mention the specific details on QQ."

Gu Dingwen recalled as he spoke:
"He requested a meeting and said he would explain in detail to me at that time."

He paused for a moment, then added:
“I remember it was April last year. I thought we would meet soon, but he didn’t contact me again for more than two months after that.”

Was he afraid of leaving evidence of wrongdoing? Yu Dazhang wondered to himself.

In his view, there was absolutely no need for the other party to meet with Gu Dingwen; they could have simply explained the plan on QQ.

unless……

The other party was afraid that Gu Dingwen would refuse.

The advantage of meeting in person is that you can explain the pros and cons face to face, and you won't leave any handle or evidence behind.

wrong.

Yu Dazhang quickly dismissed this hypothesis.

In comparison, it's safer not to meet in person.

Why would the other party leave such a big loophole?

If the person called "boss" hadn't met with Gu Dingwen back then, Yu Dazhang really wouldn't know how to find him now.

This can be considered the only weakness left by the opponent so far.

As for why the other party did not contact Gu Dingwen for more than two months after he requested a meeting, Yu Dazhang already had the answer in his heart.

That "boss" used this time to help Gu Dingwen take revenge.

The other party proposed meeting in April of last year, and the following month, in May of last year, Yan Yuting and her family of seven died while traveling abroad.

Then, in June, Yan Yuting's sister-in-law and her family died from food poisoning.

There's no such thing as a coincidence. It's obvious that the deaths of these two families were deliberately orchestrated.

“Until early July last year, he contacted me on QQ and we agreed to meet a week later.”

Seeing that Da Zhang did not ask any questions, Gu Dingwen continued:
"I set the meeting place at a dockside restaurant in Sydney Harbour. The environment there was nice, and there were fewer people, which was perfect for discussing business."

He recalled the scene at that time:
"He was a polite middle-aged man with a neatly combed short haircut. He looked very gentlemanly, but his words and actions revealed a sense of rigor and seriousness."

"He first talked to me about surrogacy and described the profit points and operating procedures."

"He also stated that he would be fully responsible for the start-up capital."

Gu Dingwen shook his head and said firmly:
“I refused immediately. As a doctor, I know that surrogacy is illegal in China, and I would never do something that violates the law.”

"But then he made a condition I couldn't refuse..."

He paused here, seemingly unsure how to phrase his next words.

Yu Dazhang wasn't in a hurry; he sat opposite him and waited quietly for him to continue.

After a long while, Gu Dingwen finally snapped out of his reverie. He took a deep breath and slowly began to speak:

"His exact words were..."

"The law may not bring you justice, but I can. The wicked will eventually be brought to justice."

His voice was soft, but firm and resolute:
"Then he showed me the videos of those two families before they died. I saw them on his phone, and after I watched them, he deleted the videos in front of me."

"At that moment, I wavered."

Gu Dingwen's voice suddenly turned low:

"For no other reason than the exhilaration of that moment."

When he uttered those last words, the gentleness that had lingered in his eyes vanished completely, leaving only an indescribable coldness. The hatred ran too deep… Yu Dazhang could sense that Gu Dingwen still harbored resentment towards those two families.

Even though ten years have passed since that incident, and even though both families have perished, he still harbors hatred.

Yu Dazhang had some doubts about whether Gu Dingwen had been wronged, but now he was completely convinced.

If he hadn't been wrongly accused for so many years, how could Gu Dingwen have harbored such deep hatred for those two families?

Clearly, the other party was no ordinary person; he had a precise grasp of Gu Dingwen's psychology and helped him complete his revenge.

The most ingenious part is that he didn't use revenge as a bargaining chip before taking action.

Instead, after completing the task, they directly presented the results to Gu Dingwen.

Doing so would undoubtedly greatly increase Gu Dingwen's goodwill, thus making him feel grateful.

"Just because the other party helped you get revenge?" Yu Dazhang asked, looking at him.

He felt that Gu Dingwen was intelligent enough to see that this was a trap set by the other party.

Moreover, both families were killed by the other side, so even if Gu Dingwen doesn't cooperate, there's nothing they can do about it.

That was just a starting point.

Gu Dingwen's eyes returned to calm:

"What ultimately made me decide was the conditions offered by the other party."

"As long as I agree to cooperate, all the profits from surrogacy will be mine, and he will also give me an additional subsidy of 500,000 yuan for each surrogate pregnancy."

His voice rose slightly, as if he were very satisfied with the terms:
"Think about it, he provides the capital, all the profits go to me, and there are also subsidies. This kind of business is like a pie falling from the sky for me."

"And the other party had only one requirement: that each woman must receive an injection from him before she becomes a surrogate mother."

Finally, we've gotten to the crucial point... Yu Dazhang felt that the other party wouldn't help Gu Dingwen for no reason.

To put it bluntly, both sides got what they wanted.

Gu Dingwen was after money, while the other party seemed to be using those women for some kind of drug experiment.

Seeing that he had stopped, Yu Dazhang couldn't help but ask:
"What kind of injection is it? Or rather, what kind of effect does it have?"

I originally thought that Gu Dingwen, a gynecologist, would be able to provide a professional and detailed explanation.

However, to Yu Dazhang's disappointment, he simply shook his head slightly:

"I'm not too sure about that either, but based on the observed drug reactions so far, it doesn't seem to affect surrogacy."

He paused briefly, then continued explaining:
"Moreover, people who have received the injections have significantly enhanced immunity and improved metabolism, but they may experience obvious rejection reactions."

Gu Dingwen thought for a moment, then analyzed:
"Based on my experience, the injection the other party received was most likely a stem cell-based drug, otherwise there wouldn't have been an obvious rejection reaction."

"But it's not entirely hematopoietic stem cells; it's more likely a product of mixing with appropriate drugs."

Stem cells? Yu Dazhang was stunned for a couple of seconds after hearing that.

I know this very well.

The case of the top-tier hospital he had personally investigated flashed through his mind.

He still vividly remembers the details of that case, in which the criminals went so far as to extract spinal stem cells from the children.

Their purpose was actually for that ridiculous "immortality".

At this moment, a thought inexplicably popped into Yu Dazhang's mind.

Could these two cases be connected in some way?
