Chapter 24: Mysterious Evidence
When Zhao Yingcai saw Shang Yucheng's expression, he knew that today's matter was difficult to get better, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Of course we know that Miss Shang will never hide evidence privately, but Miss Shang was indeed at the scene at the time, and this is also a last resort procedure." I promise that we will be very careful and will never destroy any of Miss Shang's belongings. β
Miss Shang sneered, "Since you know that I won't hide evidence privately, why do you want to search my house?" If it was because of the presence at the scene, weren't the few people here also at the scene? There are also Jing Cheng and Ye Shao - I don't know if you have to search everyone equally, or do you think I'm a bully and search me alone? β
Zhao Yingcai listened to Shang Yucheng's words, and cold sweat was about to fall. He didn't dare to say that he would search Ye Shen's house without discrimination, nor did he dare to say that he would only search Shang Yucheng's house, so he wiped his sweat pitifully and said, "Since Miss Shang had time to share a room with the prisoner alone, the current order from above is only to search Miss Shang's house - as for what to do next, we will also listen to the above arrangement." β
Shang Yucheng glanced at Ye Shen on the side and said coldly, "Since you are here by order, then please." Whether I have any private evidence or not, I can return my innocence after searching. However, since you have spared no effort to track down the evidence, you must persist until the case is closed. β
She looked at Zhao Yingcai, "I have also heard about the cases you handled, unjust, false and wrongful cases emerge in an endless stream, and innocent people suffer in vain." It's just that I didn't expect that one day it would be suspicious of meβ" Shang Yucheng shook his head mockingly and smiled.
"Miss Shang misunderstoodβ" Zhao Yingcai said busily.
Shang Yucheng raised his hand to interrupt him, "You don't have to say these words. Not only did I know that I was innocent, but I was also very sure that Lu Jingcheng, Ye Shao, and Miss Jia, who came to the scene later, were innocent. If this is the case, it is very debatable whether the female prisoner you are talking about has committed a crime or not. Shang Yucheng looked at Zhao Yingcai, with a look of pain and indignation on his face, "It's just a trumped-up charge that hurt a person's life, dare to ask-who is the person who committed the crime?" β
Zhao Yingcai's face was pale, and he wiped the sweat on his forehead again and again.
After Shang Yucheng finished speaking, he shook his head slightly, and seemed to have a tired look, "Please, everyone." β
Zhao Yingcai was stunned for a moment, and then stood up gloomy, "Offended, Miss Shang." Then he turned around and whispered, "Hurry up!" Be careful not to damage things. β
After saying that, he also followed behind and walked away.
Ye Shen threw the cigarette butt out of the window, walked over and poured a glass of water and handed it to Shang Yucheng.
Shang Yucheng took it and took a sip absentmindedly.
Ye Shen's identity background, even the government has to be afraid of one or two, which is also the reason why Ye Shen can be unscrupulous when he was in a restaurant at that time. If he stands up to stop it today, I believe that anyone will have to give in. However, he was only a bystander from beginning to end - Shang Yucheng couldn't help but glance up at Ye Shen.
Ye Shen seemed to have guessed Shang Yucheng's thoughts, and smiled, "I believe that Miss Shang is innocent, and it doesn't hurt to search for it." Rest assured, they won't be harassing you anymore after today. β
Shang Yucheng smiled slightly, "What Mr. Ye said is right, since we are law-abiding citizens, it doesn't hurt to search for it." When I search Mr. Ye's house another day, I will definitely go to cheer for Mr. Ye in person. β
Ye Shen smiled cheekily and didn't say anything more.
It was Shang Yucheng's words that made Zhao Yingcai a little stunned, and they searched Shang Yucheng's clothes, shoes and bags at random, and hurried out.
"Miss Shang, how offended." Zhao Yingcai stepped forward as usual and said, "Now that I have searched, there is nothing-Miss Shang can rest assured." β
Shang Yucheng nodded, "That's good." She paused, then added, "There is no room in the house, but you are going to be searched?" She swept over Zhao Yingcai's faces, "If that's the case, I'm afraid it will take a few people to find a woman to search for it." Otherwise, even if I agree, I'm afraid Mr. Lu won't agree. β
Zhao Yingcai looked at the close-fitting cheongsam on Shang Yucheng's body, and hurriedly shook his head, "Don't dare, don't dare." Miss Shang has searched here, but there is nothing. He laughed dryly, "Miss Shang is busy meeting guests, so we won't bother." With that, he bowed and turned to leave.
This farce ended in a hurry, and Shang Yucheng's eyebrows relaxed, "Now even staying at home is inevitably troublesome, which makes Mr. Ye smile." β
"You don't have to be so polite." Ye Shen said, "If I hadn't chosen that unlucky restaurant that day, Miss Shang wouldn't have been frightened and would have gotten into trouble again." It's mine, it's not right. β
He smiled and said, "I want to invite Miss Shang to dinner to make amends, but it was originally caused by the disaster, and I'm afraid Miss Shang is not interested in going to the appointment again." β
Shang Yucheng smiled, "It's not like this, but I'm not in a hurry, now I want to go to the Ye family as a part-time translator, there is always an opportunity." β
The two said a few more polite words, Ye Shen said goodbye and left, Shang Yucheng sent him to the door, watched him drive away before returning to the bedroom, turned around and locked the door.
She stood against the door for a few seconds before she walked to the dresser, which had an intricate surface and a gorgeous floral pattern carved into the corners of the table. She took out the dresser that had been placed under the dresser, held the top, and with some difficulty removed it from it.
Wood has been cut out of the middle of a stool's legs, revealing a hollow inside. Shang Yucheng turned it upside down, and a white wax pill the size of a copper coin rolled out of it.
Shang Yucheng looked at the wax pill in front of him, as if he saw the woman's dying eyes again, that urgent and eager look, eager to entrust her with something that made her put her out of the way of death.
It was that look that shocked Shang Yucheng. She forced herself to calm down, and took the opportunity to pick up the lipstick, and quietly picked up the wax pill that also rolled under the sink.
What could it be? Shang Yucheng watched quietly for a long time, if the contents of this wax pill were worth guarding with their lives, someone would definitely want to take her back. She resisted the urge to open it and put the wax pill back in.
ββ
Shang Yucheng originally thought that being a translator was just an excuse for Ye Shen for a while, but he didn't expect that he had prepared a bunch of documents solidly, and put them on Shang Yucheng's desk with a box containing two gold bars.
Shang Yucheng looked at the things on the table with a smile, took the box containing gold bars, got up and walked towards Ye Shen's office.
The door of Ye Shen's office was hidden, and Ye Shen's voice came from inside. Shang Yucheng hesitated for a moment, and then heard a delicate female voice say something.
Before Shang Yucheng could walk away, the door was suddenly pulled open, and Ye Shen appeared at the door with a calm face, the tie around his neck was slightly loosened.
Seeing that it was Shang Yucheng, Ye Shen smiled, raised his hand to tighten his tie, and leaned on the door casually, "Miss Shangβis there something wrong?" β
Shang Yucheng crossed him and saw a fiery red figure in the room, smiled slightly, and raised the box in his hand, "I have come to thank you." β
Ye Shen shrugged indifferently, "Yes, I can't ask a woman to work hard for me in vain." β
Shang Yucheng nodded, not without sarcasm, "Mr. Ye's generosity must be known throughout Shanghai. With that, Shang Yucheng turned around and walked away.
Ye Shen naturally heard Shang Yucheng sarcastically mocking him with his words, and he looked at Shang Yucheng's back and couldn't help but smile.
Shang Yucheng, who returned to the office with the gold bars, quickly spread out the documents on the table, and started working seriously, only when he took a lunch break at noon, he stuffed the gold bars into his handbag and went out.
The vendors of the small stalls and other small businesses were closing the morning market and were buying some lo-mei on the way back β just when the Xiang Sifang delicatessen was doing good business.
When Shang Yucheng walked into the store, Uncle Jin Shan was busy collecting money and looking for money, and he didn't see Shang Yucheng for a while. Shang Yucheng was not in a hurry, she asked the young man to pack a few lo-mei for her, and then walked up to Uncle Jin Shan, took out the money and handed it over.
Uncle Jin Shan looked up and saw that it was Shang Yucheng, wiped his hands hurriedly, called a guy to take his place, and then led Shang Yucheng upstairs.
"Miss Shang, I have already found out what you asked me to investigate last time." Uncle Jin Shan got straight to the point. He took out a book from the cabinet next to him, took out a photo from it and handed it to Shang Yucheng.
Shang Yucheng took it and looked at it, "This is the person who followed me." β
Uncle Jin Shan nodded, "This person's name is Wen Hu, and his name is Ah Wen, and he is the subordinate of Ye Shen, the eldest young master of the Ye family. On weekdays, I took care of the warehouse at the dock for Ye Shen, and followed him for many years-" Uncle Jin Shan paused, "If you look at it this way, it should be that Ye Shao sent to follow Miss Shang." β
Shang Yucheng nodded unexpectedly, and she was faintly relieved when she heard this answer. Although she didn't know Ye Shen's purpose for doing this, she would rather this answer be Ye Shen than someone else, after all, Ye Shen's injury can be regarded as a handle in her hands, he is a smart person, and he will not take any unwise actions easily.
Uncle Jin Shan was not surprised to see Shang Yucheng, so he asked, "Miss Shang already knew it was him?" β
"It's just a suspicion." Shang Yu Cheng Road. "It's just that I don't know why he sent someone to follow me." Shang Yucheng said calmly. "I'll look it up."
Uncle Jin Shan nodded, and said solemnly, "Ye Shen is a big flower, and he has always had bad intentions towards women, maybe he has moved some thoughts that he shouldn't have, and Miss Shang needs to be more careful." β
Shang Yucheng knew that Ye Shen had many thoughts about himself, but there was no one that Uncle Jin Shan had guessed. Looking at Uncle Jin Shan's serious expression, she showed a smile and nodded gently, "I know Uncle Jin Shan." β
"That's right!" Uncle Jin Shan flipped through the book again and took out an envelope from it, "This is a letter written by Shu Qiang from Hong Kong and asked me to give it to Miss Shang." β
Shu Qiang has not heard from him since he left, and this time he got the letter, Shang Yucheng couldn't wait to open the envelope and take out a piece of paper from it.
There was only a short line in it: "Xuan was expelled from the University of Hong Kong for violence against a female classmate with a gun." The details will be discussed later when I return to Shanghai. β
Shang Yucheng's hand holding the letter loosened, and the letter fell on the table.
Uncle Jin Shan glanced at the paper, and then looked at Shang Yucheng's face.
The words on the letter were like a sharp knife, turning out Shang Yucheng's memory in blood. To be on the safe side, Shu Qiang didn't write down the whole thing he had investigated on a piece of paper, but this sentence alone seemed to be enough. Isn't that enough to tell the whole story?
"Miss Shangβ" Uncle Jin Shan looked at Shang Yucheng with some concern, "Are you okay?" β
Shang Yucheng raised his eyes when he heard this, and shook his head slightly, "I'm fine." She carefully packed the letter paper on the table in the envelope and stuffed it into her handbag. β
"I'll go first." She stood up and spoke.
Uncle Jin Shan nodded and instructed with concern, "Miss Shang be careful all the way." β
Shang Yucheng turned around to go downstairs, but suddenly remembered about the lo-mei, turned his head and said, "Please Uncle Jinshan send the things I bought to the Xujiahui Church Orphanage, in the hands of a Mrs. Shen." β
Uncle Jin Shan agreed and sent Shang Yucheng out.
Shang Yucheng returned to the office in a bit of a distraction, and the sentence on the letter flashed repeatedly in his mind - violence against a female classmate with a gun.
She closed her eyes and remembered the night five years ago, and the blurred figure in the darkness seemed to slowly become clear.
I don't know if the scene in the depths of her memory has finally reappeared, or if the hatred she has buried for too long can't wait to pour out on one person, she finally sees the other person's appearance clearly. The cold-blooded, ruthless, cruel and wanton face gradually overlapped with Zhao Wenxuan's face.
