"Chang An, Chang An?" Zhou Wei was still shouting over there on the phone.

Chang An raised his mobile phone, "I may have something to do here, I'll contact you later." ”

She hung up the phone and walked over.

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

The two men looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward, "Are you Ms. Chang Anchang?"

"Yes, who are you...?"

"We are from the Yunling City Procuratorate, and there is a case that needs Ms. Chang's cooperation in the investigation, can you come with us?"

……

Zhou Yi flew back from Beijing overnight, and called Chang'an as soon as he landed, but there was always a shutdown prompt, rushing back to Changhe from the airport, pushing the door open, everything at home was the same, Chang'an's drawing board and drawing paper were still thrown on the sofa, and a bouquet of flowers was placed in the entrance of the door, purple bellflower, tied with hemp rope, as if it was thrown there without having time to plug it in.

She's gone.

Zhou Yiyi sat down on the sofa, holding his head with both hands, the window in the living room was not closed, and there was wind in the room.

He tried to calm himself down, and after a while, he took out his mobile phone and called Zhou Shiqing.

"Dad, something may have happened to Chang'an!"

About half an hour later, Zhou Shiqing managed to figure out some of the situation and replied to Zhou Wei: "The person was taken away by the procuratorate, and Beijing directly ordered him to be isolated and interrogated. ”

Zhou Wei seemed to have guessed the answer, and held his forehead and took a heavy breath.

Zhou Shiqing asked again: "What's going on?"

Zhou Wei: "It should be for Yu'an's case." ”

Zhou Shiqing: "What does Xiao An have to do with Yu'an?"

Zhou Wei closed his eyes and frowned.

Sun Zhengdao has been secretly censored since the accident, and there is no wind on the Internet about this case, and no one can fathom the ideas on it, so Zhou Wei stayed in Beijing for a week, the purpose is to track the movement of the case at any time, so that he can respond in time, but with Sun Zhengdao being tried, Zhou Wei found that things were not as simple as expected, and slowly more people and things were involved.

"To be exact, it should be for Xue Bing's case. Zhou said this bitterly, although he was very reluctant to admit this fact.

……

Zhou Wei put the bunch of bellflower in a vase.

After nightfall, it began to rain, and he sat alone on the sofa smoking a cigarette and dialed Deng Shunlin's number.

Deng Shunlin had stayed with him in Beijing for two days before, but his wife couldn't stay for long, so Deng Shunlin had already returned to Yunling a few days ago.

Receiving a call in the middle of the night, Deng Shunlin knew that it was definitely not a good thing.

"Mr. Zhou, is there a situation in Beijing?"

Zhou Wei dusted off his cigarette ashes, "I'm back to Yunling." ”

"When did you come back?"

"The evening has just arrived!" After a pause, Zhou Wei pinched the cigarette in his hand, "Lao Deng, there may be a problem with the funds that Chang An invested in before." ”

Because of the rain, Yunling, which had just warmed up, fell several degrees in a row, and the weather forecast said that the cold wave was coming again. Zhou Wei didn't know what kind of clothes Chang An was wearing when she left, she always loved to be beautiful, and she didn't want to wear pants and cotton clothes, this weather, I don't know if a skirt can carry it.

Zhou Wei almost lost sleep all night, and received a call from Xu Nan at about seven o'clock in the morning.

"Mr. Zhou, I have already met the lawyer I found for Mrs. Zhou, and he will go to the procuratorate in the morning!"

"Okay, whatever the case may be, let him contact me directly. ”

"Understand, don't worry, you are looking for the best economic lawyer in Yunling, besides, although Mrs. Zhou is Xue Bing's daughter, she was also a child back then, I believe that the procuratorate is just a routine inquiry!"

Zhou Wei believes in Chang An, but at this point, he can't predict what will ferment.

"Another thing, last night I received an email from Tangsteel, informing me that Longteng's case has been closed, the factory has been sealed, and he also needs to face a huge amount of compensation. ”

Zhou Wei remembered the embarrassed appearance of Jin Dafu begging outside the car a few days ago, and he didn't feel bad.

"Survival of the fittest, it's not the first time he's come out to do business, he doesn't even understand this truth, it's purely self-inflicted!"

Zhou Wei didn't want to talk about it anymore, hung up the phone, and collapsed in his chair.

Day after night, day after night, night after night...... Zhou never knew that the alternation of day and night would be so long.

Yun Ling's rain fell for three days, Chang An never came back, and the lawyer didn't bring any good news.

On the fourth day, people from the procuratorate came to the door, and Zhou Wei was also taken away.

After the lawyer got the news, he contacted Xu Nan, but Xu Nan didn't know what to do, thought about it, and didn't dare to call Zhou Shiqing, so he could only contact Zhou Xin.

Zhou Xin was in a state of shock after learning about it.

"My brother, what can my brother do?"

Xu Nan didn't know how to explain it to her for a while, so he brushed it off, "It's not Mr. Zhou, it should be Miss Chang's problem." ”

"Chang'an?"

"No, no, no, to be precise, it's not Miss Chang, it should be Miss Chang's mother, Ms. Xue, it was found that Ms. Xue used her position to transfer Yu'an's assets before her death, and the specific situation is not clear, but the general meaning is like this. ”

Zhou Xin listened to the buzzing in her head, the impact was too great, and she was stunned for a long time before she smoothed out the logic.

"In other words, it means that the huge inheritance she has spent and inherited over the years is all stolen money?"

As harsh as this may sound, it is true.

Xu Nan pushed down the glasses on the bridge of his nose, "If you want to understand it like this, it's okay!"

"But what does this have to do with my brother?"

"Originally, it didn't matter, but Miss Chang invested in Rongbang a few years ago and cashed out all the overseas assets that Xue Bing had before his death and transferred them to Rongbang's account, and Mr. Zhou, as the beneficiary of the project, will definitely be implicated. ”

A fund from an unknown source, project cooperation, people who know can believe that Zhou Wei is innocent, and Rongbang is innocent, but people who don't know will naturally suspect that the two are knowingly carrying out some kind of transaction.

"If the situation is serious, Second Miss, the procuratorate can completely infer that Zhou is always helping Miss Chang launder money. ”

At noon on the same day, Deng Shunlin received a notice that all the funds in Rongbang's account were frozen, although Deng Shunlin took measures, but the news still spread, and in the evening there was news on the Internet that caught the wind and shadows, Ye Li kept staring, and the team also dealt with it as soon as possible, and did not develop in a more serious direction for the time being.

It's just that things have come to this point, and they can't be contained anymore.

Zhou Xin urged Zhou Shiqing to find a way, but what could Zhou Shiqing do?

"This is a case directly pressed down from above, and the Supreme People's Court directly handles it, and now it is in the limelight again, I can't openly go to the court to ask for someone?"

"But my brother is innocent, he has been in it for two days, and he has to give an explanation!"

"If Ah Yan is really innocent, there will naturally be a statement, but it is normal to be taken away for routine questioning in the process, and this matter is too wide-ranging, the only thing I can do now is to wait!"

"Wait, wait, Dad, can you think of a way for me to go in and meet her?"

"Yes, BWYA. Liu Shulan also accosted, "No matter what the case is, but the child has been in it for two days, I don't worry, can you find someone to accommodate us and let us go in and meet." ”

"The state has national laws, the family has family rules, and people just do things according to the rules, what are you going to see?" Zhou Fushan was helped down from the upstairs by the nanny on crutches, and glanced at Zhou Xin and Liu Shulan, "Don't be in this woman's kindness, if Ah Yan is really innocent, he will come back soon, you are purely blind to worry, as for Shiqing, he can't get up at this time, otherwise he will be suspected of covering up." ”

"But grandpa..."

"It's nothing, it's just two days away, it's normal to be quarantined before the case is clear, you all put your hearts in your stomachs, don't make a mess!" Zhou Fushan shook his crutches on the ground, he had seen a big scene in the end, so he was stable.

Liu Shulan didn't dare to say more, just secretly wiped her tears.

Zhou Shiqing shook his head, sighed and turned around and entered the study, to be honest, although he was called "Mayor Zhou", he was only a deputy in the end, he was in charge of trade and education, and he couldn't plug in the public security law.

For a while, the whole Zhou family was covered by haze, and this situation lasted for two days, and there was still no news from Zhou Wei, but the company has begun to mess up, all kinds of rumors and rumors have spread internally, people are panicking, and what is more serious is that the news has flowed out somehow.

News began to appear on the Internet, in the information age, a piece of news can be quickly fermented and incubated in a short period of time, coupled with the alarmism of some people, it soon became "the general manager of Rongbang is suspected of a major economic case, has been detained and investigated by the judicial organs", "the Luyang Lake project is suspected of money laundering, and the scene has been sealed", similar news emerges in endlessly, and there is a trend of intensification.

Deng Shunlin and Ye Li were about to be overwhelmed, and they only hoped that Zhou Wei could come back as soon as possible, but fortunately, the time was not long, and on the third day, the lawyer brought good news, Zhou Wei had been cleared of suspicion and should be able to come out soon.

Sure enough, in the evening of the same day, Xu Nan received a notice to pick up the person, and he went with Deng Shunlin.

Zhou Xian's body is still the same as the clothes of three days ago, gray sweater, black coat, except for the stubble is a little obvious, the whole person's state looks okay.

Deng Shunlin and Xu Nan inevitably exchanged pleasantries, and informed the company of what had happened in the past few days, including negative news on the Internet.

Zhou Xun seemed to have expected it, and there were not many surprises.

The three of them got into the car, Xu Nan was the driver, fastened his seat belt and asked, "Mr. Zhou, will I send you back first?"

Zhou Wei looked at the bright red sunset outside the window. "Contact the lawyer, I want to meet and talk to him. ”

Xu Nan was surprised, and Deng Shunlin, who was sitting in the co-pilot, also advised: "Don't be in a hurry at this time, you go back to take a shower first, sleep for one night, and talk about it tomorrow!" But Zhou Wei couldn't wait for a moment, he was only worried about Chang'an's situation now.

"Let's call, as soon as possible, make an appointment where you can talk!"

He cooperated with the investigation inside, and in three days, a group of people came to the scene, recorded confessions, transcripts, and routine inquiries, and naturally understood the whole thing, about Sun Zhengdao, about Yu'an more than ten years ago, and about what Xue Bing did before her death, as well as the huge assets she had in her overseas account.

Half an hour later, in a teahouse box near Changhe, the lawyer met with Zhou Wei.

"Hello Mr. Zhou!"

"Lawyer Zhang, hard work!"

"You're welcome, within your duties, the most important thing is to be able to help you!"

The two briefly looked at each other, shook hands, and sat down to get to the point.

“… Mr. Xu has been contacting me in the past few days, and I have also learned some information through my own contacts and channels, to be precise, your wife was only taken away to assist in the investigation this time, not detained, so as long as there is no unfavorable evidence to identify her in the later stage, it should come out soon under normal circumstances!"

There was no doubt about this, and he was certainly sure that Chang An didn't know what Xue Bing had done before his death.

"In which direction will the case develop in the later stage?" is what Zhou Wei is more concerned about now.

Lawyer Zhang pushed down the thick glasses on the bridge of his nose, "It's hard to say, first, it depends on the instructions from above, and second, it also depends on how many things the procuratorate has found out at present, but this case has a certain particularity, to be precise, Ms. Xue Bing's matter has not been filed separately, she was confessed and implicated in the process of trying Yu'an's case, and Ms. Xue Bing has been dead for many years, so many things are difficult to obtain evidence." ”

"Is that past the prosecution period?"

"There is no question of the prosecution period, after all, the party has passed away, and it is meaningless to make any judgment against her, but the stolen money is still there, and the new criminal procedure law of 'recovery after death' has a precedent for implementation, so once it is verified, all the inheritance that your wife inherited from Ms. Xue should be confiscated. ”

"Will my wife be affected in any other way?"

Lawyer Zhang pushed down his glasses again.

"Mr. Zhou, let me tell you this, your wife was only sentenced to confiscate all the inheritance, which should be the best outcome, and in addition to this, she may face prosecution. ”

"Sue, sue what?"

Generally speaking, if the procuratorate stubbornly believes that Miss Chang has inherited and enjoyed the stolen money for many years knowing it, the matter may be more serious. ”

Zhou Wei's face sank suddenly, but lawyer Zhang immediately added: "Of course, this is the worst plan, but we also have to prepare early, once your wife is really prosecuted, the procuratorate will transfer it to the court, and then it will be a trial, preparing in advance can make you have more time, in short, you need to start a lawsuit!"

Lawyer Zhang was very organized, but Xu Nan and Deng Shunlin next to him were stunned.

They didn't know exactly what was going on before, but now that they understood it, they didn't expect it to be so serious.

"Didn't you just say that you were just assisting in the investigation, why did you suddenly become a defendant?" Xu Nan couldn't help but ask.

Lawyer Zhang smiled bitterly: "Yes, once indicted, Mrs. Zhou will be the defendant, but what I said is also the worst situation, normal inference should not have come to this point, after all, Mrs. Zhou was only seven years old when Ms. Xue Bing passed away." ”

That being said, there is no room for accidents.

"If, I mean if—" he held his breath, "if he is actually prosecuted and goes to trial, what are the odds of winning this lawsuit?"

Lawyer Zhang thought about it and replied confidently: "Seventy or eighty!"

Zhou Wei's eyes were cold, "No, I have to make sure that she is 100% safe." ”

"Then there must be witnesses who can prove that she inherited this asset without knowing it!"

Zhou Wei thought for a while, "Her father, her father should be able to prove it." ”

After more than half an hour, the conversation ended, and lawyer Zhang left first.

Xu Nan and Deng Shunlin sat there and no one dared to make a sound, watching Zhou Wei press his forehead with his hand and be silent, there was no movement in the box, and the air seemed to stop.

In the end, it was Deng Shunlin who broke the silence first and said something very unconstructive.

"Mr. Zhou, Jiren has his own natural appearance, you can relax, a person as good as Miss Chang will definitely be fine. ”

Zhou Wei closed his eyes and let out a deep breath, sat for a while, and waved his hand: "You go back first." ”

Xu Nan was not at ease, "What about you?"

"I'll sit a little longer, and the car will be left to me!"

The three-day quarantine and interrogation has stretched his physical strength and energy to a limit, and what he needs at this time is to settle down and sort things out.

Deng Shunlin motioned to Xu Nan with his eyes, "Let's go, let him be alone for a while!"

The two left one after another, Zhou Wei covered his face with his hands and fell on the chair, he basically didn't close his eyes inside, he was already dizzy at this time, but some thoughts were getting clearer and clearer.

What Xue Bing did before his death, the relationship between Xue Bing and Sun Zhengdao, and even Xue Bing's death, one by one, were like huge nets, covering the sky and covering him almost out of breath, plus everything came too quickly, which caught him off guard.

At this time, the mobile phone on the table rang, and Zhou Wei glanced at the landline on the other side of the house.

"Hey..."

"Brother... Brother, are you really out?" Zhou Xin's happy voice came from there, and then Liu Shulan was heard shouting, "Is it your brother, did he answer the phone?

Zhou Xin didn't wait for Zhou Xin to speak, and asked directly: "Where are you now? Are you at home, my mother and I will go over to see you!"

Zhou Wei sighed, his mind was full of things now, how could he have extra energy to deal with them again.

"I'm fine, you don't have to come here. ”

"But Mom can't see you, don't worry...... Ah Yan, Ah Yan..."The microphone seemed to be changed, and Liu Shulan's voice came from there, "Where are you? How are the people? Do you want to care? Do you know that I've been scared to death for the past few days, no, I have to go to your place to see..."

"I'm still out there, I don't know when I'll be able to go back, there's a call coming in, let's do it first!"

He hung up eagerly, held the phone on his forehead, and took another breath, when the ringtone rang again, but it was Xu Nan's call.

"Hey..."

"Hey, Mr. Zhou, just now Lawyer Zhang received the news that Mrs. Zhou should have come out more than half an hour ago. ”

Zhou Wei picked up the coat on the chair and almost trotted out of the teahouse, dialing Chang'an's number all the way, but it was always a busy sound.

Where will she go when she comes out?

Go home, yes, go home!

The teahouse is very close to the community, five minutes by car, Zhou Wei rushed all the way to the door of the villa, at this time the night has fallen, he saw that the window on the second floor seemed to faintly reflect a little faint light, the car was not parked in the parking space, directly across the door, get out of the car, close the door, press fingerprints, through the yard, Zhou Wei never thought that the path in the yard would be so long, and finally entered the main hall, saw Chang An's boots next to the shoe cabinet, and her coat was also thrown on the sofa.

"Chang'an!"

"Chang'an?"

There was obviously no one on the first floor, Zhou Wei ran upstairs in two steps and one step, pushed open the bedroom door, the room was dim, and finally saw the figure.

Chang An sat on the edge of the bed, originally with his head down, and only raised his body when he heard the sound of pushing the door, but his eyes were blank, as if the world he was immersed in was suddenly interrupted.

It's been seven days, she has been taken away for seven days, she has spent seven days inside, and Zhou Wei has just experienced this kind of tormented despair, so he can't imagine Chang An's mood at this time.

He clenched his fists slightly, restrained the emotions that were about to rush out, and slowly paced past, until he walked to the front of the bed.

"You... Just arrived home?" Zhou Wei finally spoke, his voice obviously dull.

Chang An's gaze was always fixed on his face, moving with his steps, but it seemed to be empty.

She didn't answer Zhou Wei's question, her eyes glazed.

Zhou Wei gritted his teeth, bent down slightly, supported Chang An's shoulders with his hands, and looked at each other.

"Okay, I don't ask anything, you lie down and rest for a while, it's best to be able to sleep, and when you wake up, everything will pass. ”

It was the most lame consolation, but he really didn't know what to say at this moment.

"Chang'an?"

The person on the bed finally moved his eyes, half paid, did not gnaw, but moved his ass and slowly lay on the bed.

Seeing the situation, Zhou Wei hurriedly pulled the quilt over and covered her, and pulled the pillow over and pressed it to the back of her head.

She quietly and obediently stretched her body out, lay flat, stared at the ceiling with stunned eyes for a while, Zhou Wei rubbed the bangs on her forehead, leaned down and gave a kiss.

"Obedient, get some sleep, you need to rest now!"

She remained silent, but she closed her eyes, her eyelashes fluttering for a moment before finally stopping.

Zhou Wei breathed a sigh of relief, tore open the collar button, leaned on the bed as if he was half-paralyzed, looked down at the person next to him, and the clothes on his body should not have changed, a light blue lapel knitted skirt.

Sure enough, as he expected, he always wore so little, plus seven days of torture, his face was thin, and there were obvious black shadows under his eyes, which showed that he shouldn't have had much rest inside.

Zhou Xian's heart was blocked, and he reached out to hold the fingers that were often placed outside the quilt, it was cold and cold, and he didn't warm it after pinching it for a while, but the person still came back in the end.

Just come back, nothing else is a problem!

In a trance, I don't know how long it took, Zhou Wei heard the mobile phone ringing and woke up suddenly, only then did he realize that he had fallen asleep just now, and quickly took out his mobile phone and pressed it to mute, but fortunately, the person on the bed didn't seem to be woken up.

Seven days without seeing the light of day, maybe too tired.

Zhou Wei tucked the quilt away, walked out of the bedroom with his mobile phone, and flipped through the call record again, it was an unfamiliar number just now.

Now that the grass and trees are all soldiers, he hesitated for a moment and dialed the number.

"Hey!"

There was no immediate sound over there, Zhou Wei waited and waited, and then asked, "Which one?"

There was a crackle, and it seemed to be the movement of a lighter.

"It's me, Chen Haodong!"
