Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous

Lu Nian?

Shen Ji frowned. According to his deduction, the person who called the police was not Nian Feiyao.

How could there be Lu Nian's fingerprints on the murder weapon?

If Lu Nian's fingerprints were on the murder weapon, does that mean he was right next to Su Qian when she was murdered?

Given Lu Nian's relationship with Su Qian, if Su Qian were really harmed, how could Lu Nian not save her?

Shen Jiyuan frowned. "So?"

Zhao Tong's lips moved, his gaze unconsciously falling on Shen Ji, and the words that were about to come out of his throat were swallowed back down.

He said in a deep voice, "Let's talk about it after I'm done."

Shen Jiyuan paused for a moment, then finally nodded.

Since a murder had occurred at Yunxiangju, almost everyone who was drinking tea there was unable to leave. So Shen Jiyuan and Shen Ji waited on the benches in the courtyard.

Shen Ji fiddled with the Ultra Egg in his hand. This note... who put it there?

Is it Lu Nian?

Or is it a bandit from that year?

Or are there other people involved?

As he was lost in thought, Qu Liuying's phone suddenly rang. She bent down and whispered, "Boss, it's Zhu Rong calling."

Shen Jiyuan hummed in agreement. "Answer it."

Qu Liuying took a few steps to the corner and quickly answered the phone.

"Old Qu, we've caught him. Ask the boss if we need to wait for him to come?" Zhu Rong asked on the other end of the phone.

Qu Liuying frowned and said, "Something happened here, so I might not be able to leave. Let me ask the boss."

She came over and told Shen Jiyuan that Zhu Rong had captured the man. Shen Jiyuan said in a deep voice, "Tell him to wait over there. I'll be right there."

Qu Liuying nodded.

Since Shen Jiyuan couldn't go to the scene to find Zhao Tong, he could only call him and tell him about receiving the note and catching the person.

A short while later, Zhao Tong came out of the main hall of Yunxiang Residence.

"Where's the note?" he asked.

Shen Ji handed over the Ultra Egg in his hand, "It's in here."

Zhao Tong stared at the thing, then paused, "Another toy from this series?"

He twisted open the Ultraman egg and, sure enough, saw the note with only two words: "Have you found the person who put this?"

"Hmm," Shen Jiyuan said, "Zhu Rong... Xiao Ji's bodyguards chased after him; it should be that person."

"Okay." Zhao Tong quickly took off his gloves. "Let's go, I'll go with you."

Shen Jiyuan frowned and said, "Aren't you going to take care of this place?"

Zhao Tong said "Oh," and added, "Isn't Xiao Liang here? She can handle it. I'll go with you."

With several police officers around, Shen Jiyuan was naturally happy and didn't say anything more.

After saying goodbye to his colleagues, Zhao Tong led Shen Jiyuan and Qu Liuying out of Yunxiang Residence. However, they did not expect to encounter a familiar woman as soon as they stepped out of the gate of Yunxiang Residence.

Sun Qing.

The other party seemed to have just finished giving their statement and been released. Upon seeing them come out, their gaze unconsciously fell on Shen Jiyuan. "President Shen? Long time no see."

Shen Jiyuan paused, glancing at her indifferently, without responding to her words.

The other person didn't seem embarrassed at all. She turned her gaze to Shen Ji and exclaimed in surprise, "Who is this child? He's so cute!"

Before Shen Jiyuan could speak, Shen Ji waved at her with a grin, "Hello Auntie, I'm my daddy's little darling~"

Sun Qing was taken aback for a moment, then said, "I see."

"There's been a lot of talk about it lately that Mr. Shen's long-lost son has been found. It seems it's true." She smiled and said, "Mr. Shen, congratulations!"

Shen Jiyuan glanced at her coldly, "Oh, I don't accept congratulations from strangers."

Who are you?

Sun Qing: "..."

A flash of malice crossed her eyes, and she gave an awkward laugh. "Uh, it seems Mr. Shen doesn't remember me."

"We met four years ago. My name is Sun Qing."

Shen Jiyuan said coldly, "I don't know him, get out of the way."

Sun Qing: "..."

She seemed surprised that Shen Jiyuan was so disrespectful; her face turned pale and then red, before she finally gritted her teeth and made way for him.

Shen Jiyuan didn't even glance at her, and carried Shen Ji towards the car.

Once in the car, Zhao Tong grinned and said, "You little rascal, you really don't give people any face at all. Look at how you're beating them up, they're almost crying."

Shen Jiyuan sneered, "What kind of Tom, Dick, or Harry deserves my respect?"

"Tsk." Zhao Tong gave a thumbs up. "That's right. Who are you? The Buddha of Jincheng. Who would dare to ask for face in front of you?"

Shen Jiyuan: "..."

He gritted his teeth and said menacingly, "If you dare say those two words again, I'll kill you."

Zhao Tong laughed heartily, "Don't get upset, that's the path you came from."

Shen Jiyuan: "..."

The car followed the GPS and drove there. Fortunately, it wasn't far; it was in an old residential building nearby.

The entrance to the residential area is full of haphazardly parked electric bikes and bicycles, and the roadside is also full of various private cars. It's difficult to even park a car on the roadside, let alone drive it in.

Qu Liuying searched for a while before finding a parking space. After parking the car, the group followed the GPS and entered the residential area.

It is located in Unit 3, Building 6, Room 7 on the 5th floor.

The narrow stairwell was filled with an unpleasant musty smell. Shen Jiyuan frowned in disgust. He quickly took two masks out of Shen Ji's small bag, put one on himself, and put the other on Shen Ji's mouth.

Shen Ji: "..."

He wanted to say he didn't mind, but then he remembered that the old man was a germaphobe, so he kept quiet.

Forget it.

Who told him to be their arrogant old man, Deng?

The door to room number 7 wasn't closed tightly, leaving a small gap. Qu Liuying and Shen Jiyuan exchanged a glance, then with a flick of their wrists, they pulled out a baton from their waists and slowly approached the door.

She quickly opened the door and saw Zhu Rong sitting casually on the sofa, eating sunflower seeds, with a young man sitting next to him.

Qu Liuying was stunned for a moment, then breathed a sigh of relief.

When Zhu Rong saw them arrive, she threw away the sunflower seed shells in her hand and jumped up from the sofa. "Boss, you're here."

Shen Jiyuan and Zhao Tong then entered the house.

When the young man on the sofa saw Shen Jiyuan and Shen Ji, his pale face became even more tense and frightened.

Shen Jiyuan narrowed his eyes, strode over, and asked directly, "Was it you who left this note for us?"

The man nervously rubbed his hands, glanced at him, then quickly lowered his head again, not daring to speak.

Zhao Tong walked over to him, plopped down, and took out his ID to show the other man. "Don't be nervous, I'm Zhao Tong from the Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Public Security Bureau."

"There are some things I need to know about you."

The man was startled, then abruptly looked up. "You...you're a police officer?"

Zhao Tong: "...Police officer."

The man breathed a sigh of relief, almost bursting into tears of joy. "Thank goodness! I...I'm a law-abiding citizen! I didn't kill anyone!"
