I can dream about my own death.

Seeing Jiang Yanhui's reaction, Chen Wensheng did not continue speaking, but waited patiently.

Two full minutes passed before Jiang Yanhui recovered, sat up straight again, and sighed, "Is this the legendary retribution?"

"What kind of retribution?" Li Yucheng couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Yanhui recalled the past:

"Ten years ago, I was working on a construction project in the neighboring city of Tanshan. That winter, a project payment of over three million yuan was deposited into my account."

In a moment of impulsiveness, my wife Yu Juan immediately used the project funds to buy a large piece of jadeite rough, saying she wanted to cut it out to make bracelets.

After I discovered that she had embezzled the money, I immediately told her that a large portion of it was for the wages of her migrant workers and asked her to return the jadeite rough.

She agreed to a refund, but the merchant who sold her the jadeite rough ran away.

I became suspicious, so I had a professional cutter cut the jadeite rough open. They found a bunch of cracks inside, and it was basically a piece of waste.

In other words, my wife was scammed out of three million yuan.

Before this incident, although I had delayed paying the migrant workers under my command, I eventually did.

After this incident, I really didn't have the money to pay the wages of the migrant workers under my command.

Having no other choice, I changed the name on my ID card and fled to Changfeng City.

After years of hard work, I finally made a comeback and built a successful career in Changfeng City.

But I still don't dare to go back to my hometown, Tanshan City, and I still don't dare to face the group of migrant workers whose wages I owe.

Now, the cats and dogs from Tanshan City, carrying the rabies virus, have come to Changfeng City and infected my wife.

Perhaps this is what they call retribution!

After hearing what Jiang Yanhui said, Chen Wensheng felt it was all nonsense.

If it weren't for the fact that Yu Juan's husky bit him and Yu Juan herself spoke rudely to him, he would definitely have kindly reminded Yu Juan to get a rabies vaccine.

This can only be attributed to Yu Juan's aggressive, irritable, and easily angered personality, which caused her to contract rabies and ultimately lose her life.

Jiang Yanhui's current dejected state was also detrimental to the police investigation, so Chen Wensheng decided to help him "cheer up" and said, "Mr. Jiang, is it possible that your wife's rabies infection wasn't an accident, but rather something deliberately done? And that the person behind it all is here to take revenge on you?"

"Are you telling the truth?" Jiang Yanhui became extremely agitated again.

Chen Wensheng said calmly, "I can give you a completely truthful answer, but before that, you need to answer one question to me truthfully."

"you say."

"There's a dump truck driver named Xu Pingshi who took a job transporting construction waste cleared from the sewers. Why did you let him dump the waste at the designated location?" Chen Wensheng forced himself to suppress his excitement and asked in a seemingly calm manner.

Jiang Yanhui replied without hesitation, "Wang Qinghe, the general manager of Tenglong Building Materials Company, approached me and said he needed several large truckloads of construction waste at the last minute, and he would cover all the transportation costs. So I went along with it and did Wang Qinghe a favor by letting Xu Pingshi transport the waste. I thought it was a small matter at the time, but I never expected Xu Pingshi to have a car accident. If I had known that Wang Qinghe would overturn the car, I would never have done him that favor."

Chen Wensheng nodded, feeling more confident, and then replied:

"Let me tell you the truth: all the cats and dogs transported to Changfeng City were collected by a mysterious person and transported to Changfeng City in truckloads, where they were then released."

"As we all know, in this day and age, pet cats and dogs are generally vaccinated against rabies. However, the protection period of rabies vaccines expires. The most common rabies vaccines on the market are divided into one-year and three-year vaccines."

"Dogs are vaccinated against rabies within a few months of birth. Your husky is already four years old. Even if it received a three-year rabies vaccine, that protection period has expired. If it doesn't receive a new rabies vaccine, it can still contract rabies."

"And your wife always takes the husky out, letting it bite other stray cats and dogs. If those stray cats and dogs carry rabies, your husky will definitely get infected when it bites them."

"It's not surprising that your wife got infected because she's often with huskies."

"The key question is, could the person transporting large numbers of stray cats and dogs to Changfeng City be from Tanshan City? Could this person have known that these cats and dogs being transported to Changfeng City carried rabies?"

Jiang Yanhui struggled to get up, but was pushed back down by the two men in hats beside him.

Jiang Yanhui immediately asked, "Are you saying that someone investigated my wife's lifestyle beforehand, and also knew that my husky's rabies vaccine had expired, and then had my husky infect my wife with rabies? Using such a deadly infectious disease as rabies to kill my wife?"

"That's not impossible," Chen Wensheng nodded. "Besides, you've gotten yourself into trouble too. Someone used the machines and tools you used for the sewer renovation project to dig three tunnels leading to three gold shops, stealing 67 kilograms of gold. You're in detention for that. Isn't all of this too much of a coincidence?"

"This is no coincidence!" Jiang Yanhui immediately realized. "Back then, the project I worked on in Tanshan City was an underground cave excavation project. Those migrant workers were skilled at using all kinds of excavating machinery. This means they wanted to use this project to steal gold, frame me, and put me in jail. This...this is definitely revenge from those migrant workers!"

Jiang Yanhui became more and more agitated as he spoke, shouting, "Someone is framing me! I'm innocent! Release me! I need to go back and take care of my wife!"

Seeing that Jiang Yanhui had completely lost control of his emotions, Uncle Hat told the three of them to stop the interview.

Having no other option, Li Yucheng and the other two packed up their equipment and materials and left the detention center.

After leaving the house, Li Yucheng turned to stare at Chen Wensheng and said coldly, "Wensheng, your methods are too unorthodox!"

"Ahem!" Chen Wensheng coughed awkwardly twice.

"Your current identity is that of a reporter, not a police officer or a detective. You can only ask questions based on facts, not use inferences to guide the interviewee's words. What you did is a serious violation of the relevant regulations of 749 Media. If the higher-ups find out, you will be severely punished. Don't try to guide the interviewee's words in the future, understand?" Li Yucheng reminded him sternly.

"I had no choice, did I? If I had asked questions as rigidly as you, Jiang Yanhui probably wouldn't have said a word. Now, with my guidance, Jiang Yanhui has opened up, which has given us a lot of useful material. It has also allowed the police to obtain more key information that helps solve the case, hasn't it?" Chen Wensheng didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

Li Yucheng wanted to say a few more words of criticism, but then he remembered that Chen Wensheng had always been the kind of person who didn't play by the rules.

Only people like this can better obtain more valuable news information.

If Chen Wensheng's ability in this area is suppressed, it may become particularly difficult for him to generate viral news stories in the future.

After much deliberation, Li Yucheng ultimately chose to remain silent.

When it was noon, the three of them went to a small restaurant by the roadside and had a simple meal.

During the meal, Chen Wensheng kept thinking about what Jiang Yanhui had said.

That is in the neighboring city of Tanshan, where Jiang Yanhui also works on underground excavation projects.

The migrant workers who once worked under Jiang Yanhui are also skilled in using underground excavation machines and tools.

Connecting the dots like this, the thefts at the three gold shops might indeed be intricately linked to the migrant workers who were owed wages.
