Chapter 67: Third-rate Detective Opera (5)
Everything is normal.
There is nothing to doubt.
Gu Moli thought that Li Caijin would stay in the room deep in the corridor until the case happened, and he was always out of his sight, but what surprised him was.
It doesn't take more than a few minutes.
Li Caijin left the corridor in a wheelchair with the help of the old housekeeper.
Came to everyone.
In the reception hall on the top floor of the Twin Star Building, there are a variety of dishes, elegant waiters in suits, everything looks magnificent, full of the atmosphere of the upper class, and at this moment, this hall is already full of distinguished guests invited by Li Caijin.
The invitations that can be obtained are naturally the social elite.
What's more, in Guanghui City, they actually know each other.
Some are still peers.
In this case, the distinguished guests naturally gathered into a small circle one after another, and for a while, the hall was filled with cheerful air, and Gu Moli was like a ghost wandering away from everyone, standing quietly in the corner of the hall, staring at Li Caijin with his eyes.
As if sensing Gu Moli's gaze, Li Caijin suddenly turned his head to look at him, and then showed a gentle and kind smile at him, and then with the help of the old housekeeper, Li Caijin came to the podium in the hall in a wheelchair, holding the microphone in his hand and coughing lightly:
“... Excuse me, everybody....? ”
“!!!”
Suddenly.
The hall, which was originally quite lively, suddenly quieted down, and both the social elite and the upper-class celebrities all consciously stopped what they were doing, and looked at the man on the podium who looked weak with respect and a little fear.
"First of all, I'm very grateful to all of you for coming to my banquet."
"All of you here are my distinguished guests, and when you leave, you will all receive a gift from me personally, please do not be polite."
"Also."
"Before the banquet starts, I want to play a simple game with you."
"It's simple."
Speaking of this, Li Caijin smiled narrowly: "I will announce a very important event today, if anyone can guess what this matter is, I will personally give him a very valuable mystery prize, indicating that I have given it before." ”
"Hmph."
As soon as Li Caijin's words fell, Gu Moli laughed silently in his heart.
Is this still a guess?
Li Caijin, the president of Caijin Group, the pride of the business world, his existence is a huge threat and deterrent to the opponents of Caijin Group, just like nuclear weapons, and as we all know, nuclear weapons are the strongest weapons only when they are not launched.
But if the nuclear weapon is scrapped because it has not been repaired for many years.
It doesn't make any sense anymore.
Therefore, nuclear weapons cannot be known in detail.
The same is true for Li Caijin, whose physical condition must be kept secret from the outside world, especially when his health is very poor, and once his opponents find out about his weakness, they will gather like a predatory shark and devour Li Caijin, a sick lion.
But now.
Li Caijin did not shy away from walking to the stage, and he was in a wheelchair, without makeup, and he did not even hide the sickness and weakness on his face.
What does this mean?
It shows that he doesn't mind all kinds of accidents caused by this.
In other words.
"He's retiring."
"Completely quitting the business world, no longer intervening in the affairs of Caijin Group, and entrusting it all to others, in short, is to leave it alone."
"If nothing else, that's it."
After coming to a conclusion in his heart, Gu Moli shook his head, this is also a person's helplessness, no matter how smart and powerful you are, as soon as your body collapses, you will be nothing.
Just when Gu Moli sighed, an exclamation suddenly came from the crowd.
"I see!"
“.... Oh? ”
Li Caijin glanced at it, and Gu Moli also opened his eyes curiously and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
And there, a handsome and tall young man walked out slowly, with a confident smile on his face: "I know what you mean. ”
"That's.... Mr. Lin? ”
"The rookie in Guanghui City, from starting from scratch to establishing his own enterprise group, only took a few years, and it was very similar to Mr. Li when he was young. And I heard that he himself actually invested in Caijin Group, and he is a shareholder of Caijin Group, and Mr. Li has always valued him...."
"That's it...."
Listening to the whispered discussions of the very few people in the crowd, Gu Moli lowered his head.
There's one thing they don't know.
In Gu Moli's investigation, there is a more than seventy percent chance that this Mr. Lin Xingyuan is the cheating partner of Mrs. Li Caijin.
And he stood up at this time ....
.... What do you want to do?
Looking at Lin Xingyuan, who was slowly moving forward, Li Caijin smiled happily: "Xingyuan, you are really sharp, but after all, you are an internal person in the company, and you have received a lot more tips than other guests, which is not fair.... But forget it, tell me, what do you think? ”
"It's actually quite simple."
Lin Xingyuan paced back and forth and said, "Mr. Li Caijin." ”
"You're retiring, aren't you?"
As soon as these words came out, the entire reception hall fell silent, and the little discussion that was still there disappeared directly, and the scene fell into a dead silence.
Until Li Caijin spoke.
"That's right, I'm really going to retire."
Li Caijin looked at Lin Xingyuan with admiration, and then beckoned to him: "Since it is Xingyuan, you guessed the answer, then I will not break my promise, you come up." ”
"Mr. Li Caijin, you are laughing."
"I just happened to be lucky, and I was a little more careful than others."
Lin Xingyuan also smiled very gracefully, and then strode towards Li Caijin, one of the two is the founder and largest shareholder of Caijin Group, and the other is the rising star of Caijin Group, polite etiquette is naturally indispensable, so both of them stretched out their hands to each other at the same time.
And yet at this moment.
Swish!
Just behind Li Caijin, the old butler, who had been keeping his head down and looking drowsy, suddenly stretched out his arm, but his wrinkled palm was extremely powerful at this moment, and he grabbed Lin Xingyuan's wrist tightly, and his old eyes were even brighter and terrifying.
“.........! Chen, Steward Chen, ..... you? ”
"Mr. Lin Xingyuan."
The old housekeeper didn't have a chance to smile at Lin Xingyuan, but looked at his outstretched palm.
"Can you explain to me what this is?"
Very small.
And it's transparent.
Even if you look closely, you may lose sight of the past.
On Lin Xingyuan's outstretched palm, a small needle tube of about three millimeters was attached to the inside of the palm by transparent tape, if he shook hands like this, this thin needle was very likely to pierce Li Caijin's hand, and judging from its fineness, I am afraid that Li Caijin himself would not feel anything.
The wound is also barely detectable.
However.....
This thin needle was seen by the old butler who should have been dizzy.
"Hmm!"
At this moment, as if the mask he was wearing had been peeled off, the elite demeanor of a successful person on Lin Xingyuan's body gradually collapsed visibly, the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably, sweat fell from his forehead, and a slight sound of teeth chattering came from his mouth.
"You, what are you talking about, old butler, I don't know ......"
"Don't know?"
"Xingyuan?"
The old butler's lion-like gaze and Li Caijin's somewhat puzzled inquiry made Lin Xingyuan look more and more nervous, but he still tried his best to stabilize his expression.
However, just when Lin Xingyuan was about to continue to explain.......
........ Bang!
The exploding firelight flashed in the hall, instantly passing through the back of Lin Xingyuan's head, shooting out from the center of his eyebrows, and finally grazing Li Caijin's shoulder with a splash of blood.
"Uh-huh!"
accompanied by Li Caijin's painful cry.
The scene spiraled out of control in an instant.
