Chapter 113: All Silenced

“I thought Mrs. Gu really loved Brother Zhan, but it seems she’s just like that.”

Qi Xiaoyi, who had been watching the drama from the corner, quietly walked out.

“As the saying goes, like mother, like son.”

Xiang Wanqiao curled her lips into a cold smile, her tone full of sarcasm, “Now you’ve seen the true colors of the Gu family, haven’t you?”

“I have.” Qi Xiaoyi sighed, “Brother Zhan is truly a pitiful child, growing up in such a family.”

Now he finally understood why Gu Jingzhan was completely different after he was found.

It turns out he wasn’t lost on his own, but was…

Xiang Wanqiao turned her head slightly and asked, “Didn’t you say you caught a few people? How are they doing now? Have you gotten any information?”

“Not yet.” Qi Xiaoyi replied, “But I’ve already had them closely guarded, if there’s any progress, they will report to me immediately.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a clear phone ringing sound echoed.

Seeing his phone ringing, Qi Xiaoyi immediately took it out of his pocket and answered the call.

The voice on the other end of the phone was very urgent, coming through the receiver, “Qishao, bad news! The people we caught at the scene of the accident last night… they’re all dead.”

“What!”

Qi Xiaoyi was startled, his face instantly turned serious.

He frowned and asked in a deep voice, “What happened? Didn’t I tell you to keep them all under close watch? How could someone have taken advantage of the situation?”

“They were under watch, but when we went to check just now, they were all…”

The subordinate on the phone was very terrified, he stopped there and didn’t dare to continue.

Qi Xiaoyi was so angry he couldn’t speak, he helplessly pressed his forehead.

The subordinate hurriedly apologized, “Sorry, Qishao, we didn’t do our job well.”

Qi Xiaoyi took a deep breath, calmed down, and asked calmly, “Is there any surveillance? Check the surveillance.”

“We checked, but the surveillance footage was all destroyed.”

The other party’s answer made Qi Xiaoyi, who had already calmed down, feel a surge of irritation again.

He finally couldn’t help but yell, “What the hell are you doing? You can’t keep people under watch, you can’t even keep the surveillance, are you trying to slack off?”

“Qishao, I’m sorry…”

“Sorry is useless!” Qi Xiaoyi shouted, “Everyone gets a half-month salary deduction, as a warning to others.”

“Yes.”

Qi Xiaoyi angrily hung up the phone.

Xiang Wanqiao, through Qi Xiaoyi’s current expression and the conversation just now, had already guessed what happened.

She calmly spoke, asking a question, “Those people are dead?”

A hint of astonishment flashed in Qi Xiaoyi’s eyes, then he lowered his eyelids in shame and faintly nodded, “Those people, they were all silenced.”

Xiang Wanqiao chuckled, “It was to be expected.”

She said calmly, “With Gu Wenhua’s methods, knowing that his operation failed this time, he would never leave any trace of this matter.”

“What should we do now?” Qi Xiaoyi asked helplessly, “The only evidence that could point to Gu Wenhua is gone.”

“Gone is gone.” Xiang Wanqiao replied calmly, “Even if those people didn’t die, they were just paid to do a job, they wouldn’t be able to point the finger at Gu Wenhua.”

“That’s true.”

“But this matter, we have to give Gu Wenhua a little warning.”

Qi Xiaoyi was instantly intrigued, asking, “Oh? How are you going to warn him?”

Xiang Wanqiao curled her lips, a meaningful smile in her eyes.
