At the police station, I handed over the lawyer's phone number to the police, who dialed it on a dedicated mobile phone and handed it to me.

That was the barrister who was introduced to me by Liu Yixian, who specializes in economic and financial lawsuits, Shang Yang.

Before I could explain what had happened to him, he asked me if I had been implicated in the recent negative press about Project Starlight.

"How did you mess with that guy?" I heard a hint of trickiness in Shang Yang's tone, and the person he was referring to should be the one Liu Yixian told me.

"Lawyer Shang, please come here. I said.

"Okay, I'll get the materials ready, I'll be right away. "Shangyang has always been resolute.

Liu Yiyi introduced him to me because FW lacked a lead legal counsel, and after I contacted him, I also hired him to be my personal lawyer.

When I left and the legal needs waned, the partnership ended, but he continued to volunteer with the stars.

Before Shang Yang arrived, I was taken to the interrogation room, where an older male officer and another younger female officer took notes for me.

They were polite and asked me some questions about the stars.

But when the same question was asked over and over again, I became a little impatient.

"Officer, I've answered this question three times, do you still have any questions?" I refused to answer a fourth time.

The male officer said without any expression, "This is the procedure." ”

I took a deep breath and asked him, "I have said everything I can and I have nothing to hide." If you still have questions, you can go directly to investigate. The stars are not my alone, and I can't know everything about the heads and departments up and down. I also want to know what went wrong. ”

The male police officer saw that I was no longer willing to cooperate, so he closed the notebook in his hand and asked me, "What is the reason for your resignation?"

"Study abroad. I replied.

"As far as I know, the school has suspended your enrollment?" he asked, undoubtedly rubbing salt in my wounds.

"Comrade officer, because of this, I want to solve this matter quickly!" I guess he has already investigated me before this, so he must know why I was temporarily disqualified.

"You have a good relationship with Linda?" his question was illogical.

I said yes, she was my former subordinate.

"Is it good to have a personal relationship, a girlfriend?" he asked.

I didn't really like his tone, but because of the other party's status, I nodded and said, "Good friends." ”

"Oh, you probably don't know her well. "There was a reason for what he said, and I became more and more angry.

"What's wrong with her?" I tried to keep my composure.

"She is suspected of reselling the company's trade secrets, and ...... There is a suspicion of using public welfare projects to illegally raise funds. The male officer's words made me calm down quickly.

Linda?

Although subjectively I vetoed it at the first time, if what the male police officer said is true, Linda is now in an important position, and it is indeed convenient to commit a crime.

Not to mention anything else, along the way, I have encountered more and more temptations and traps, as I rise in position.

Could it be that Linda didn't stand up to the test and went the wrong way?

After all, if it's the police, they can't do it out of nowhere, I have to think calmly.

"What can I do?" I realized that the male officer was telling me this for the purpose of not making small talk with me.

He nodded with satisfaction: "Help us check her." ”

"How?" I asked.

He leaned back, leaned back in his chair, and stretched: "It's very simple, just have a meal and chat with her, and bring a monitor with you." When the time comes, we will prompt you to ask her any questions based on the situation. ”

I was silent for a while, then agreed to his request.

When I walked out of the door of the interrogation room, I turned around and asked the male officer, "Is she suspicious?"

"Do you know the method of elimination?" he asked me rhetorically.

"Thank you. "I get it, and I hope their suspicion of Linda is just a process of elimination.

When I came to the hall, I saw Shang Yang waiting for me.

"Hello Officer Zheng, do you have any questions?" Shang Yang seemed to know the police officer who interrogated me, and greeted him as soon as he walked over.

"No, I just asked Ms. Cheng to come back and cooperate with the investigation, but I didn't expect to alarm you. Officer Zheng smiled rarely.

"The sun is my client. Moreover, she has been in a lot of trouble lately. Shang Yang looked at me and said.

"Well, there's nothing you can do about it. By the way, Ms. Cheng, we Xiaohu will contact you later, please cooperate more. Officer Zheng pointed to the female officer behind him who had taken my confession with him, and she nodded to me.

"Okay. I agreed.

After walking out of the gate of the police station, Shang Yang asked me, what did Officer Zheng talk to me about?

I briefly talked about it and asked him what changes have been made to FW and Astral recently?

He groaned slightly, shook his head, and said, "I haven't heard of it." Now everyone's attention is focused on dealing with the PR crisis, and it's business as usual on the HR and financial fronts. ”

I fell silent, and it didn't take long for my phone to vibrate, and the name of the caller was "Seal Fire".

After picking it up, he went straight to the point and asked me where I was and wanted to meet me.

I said I'd just go over to him, and he asked me to meet at the café where I used to go to talk about business.

After hanging up the phone, Shang Yang confirmed that I was okay and told me to think twice before parting.

"Jiaoyang, the mastermind behind the starlight scandal, I think the front line should have helped you investigate. Although Ryan is a cancer in the industry and is despised by us, there is no doubt about his ability to control public opinion and his professional level, which you should be more careful about. He's a utilitarian, and if you can find out why he's pointing the finger at Starlight and you, it might be a little better to fix it. As far as I know, he did a lot of things for money and fame, but I don't understand what he was doing in this matter? Did he contact you?" Shang Yang leaned against the front of his A8 and frowned at me.

In the information that Liu Yiyi showed me, that person's name is Zhang Laien, whose English name is Lane, and he is the same person as Shang Yang.

Lin Yuan also sent me the address, but because I was abroad, I couldn't use legal means, so I could only find hackers. But now public opinion has been hyped, and the positive and negative remarks are spontaneously fermented by netizens, and it is too late.

"Haven't looked for me. Lawyer Shang, I'm a bit of a mess right now, I can't figure it out, let me think about it again, and I will have to ask you for advice if I have legal issues in the future. "I always feel that there is a thread somewhere, but I can't find it, and I don't want to trouble Liu Yiyi too much, I heard Yang Buregret that her pregnancy reaction has worsened again.

Shang Yang said goodbye to me, and I watched him drive away, and I took a taxi back to my residence.

On the way, I received a call from Yang Buregret.

As soon as she opened her mouth, she asked me where I went, and Chu Qingchuan woke up to see me.

My heart thumped, and joy "shot" into my heart like a bullet, which made me feel a shock, but then it was pain.

"No regrets, just explain it as I told you before. I can't get over it now, and I was just taken to the police station to take notes. I said calmly.

"It's okay, right? The police aren't going to arrest that bastard, what are they looking for you?" Yang was indignant, probably thinking of what happened to Ke'er.

"I'm here to cooperate with the investigation, not to mention, there are still a lot of things to deal with in the future. Take care of him for me, just say I'm busy. "I pressed the emotions in my heart and kept my composure.

"Well, don't worry. Yang's unrepentant tone reassured me, and I knew that they would definitely take care of Chu Qingchuan.

I sat in a taxi and wrote a string of names on a memo on my phone.

Liu Jing, Jiang Mei, Linda, Owen, Lane, Kerr, Mu Zhan, Stepfather, Xingmang, and even Ethan, Chu Qingchuan...... Is there a necessary connection between these people and things?

Later, when the truth was about to surface, it dawned on me that the person I had left out seemed to have nothing to do with these things, but in fact it was the most crucial, and it also taught me a vivid lesson, human "nature" is too complicated, and so are human relationships.
