173: They value life or money, so it turns out they are the ones!

As a man, Ye Lin didn't believe in any of that weight loss stuff.

For a man, as long as he can run, he might be interested. What's fat or thin? Those are just basic standards that can be changed at any time.

It's like eating; if you're used to Dongpo pork, sometimes a shredded pork dish is also good.

Therefore, Ye Lin concluded that Meng Qiu must know something else. Otherwise, without 100% safety, with her shrewdness, she wouldn't put herself in danger.

Meng Qiu looked at Ye Lin as if he were a ghost when he revealed that she knew other information.

She felt she shouldn't have come. She originally thought she could trick him into getting her diploma back, but now it seemed she was going to be completely drained.

She decided to cut her losses in time.

"Officer Ye, I don't want my diploma anymore. Do as you please." Meng Qiu stood up and left directly.

Compared to finding a job, her life was more important.

What she had just said about the dance troupe was known by many people. The only bombshell was the information about Chen Bin, but Chen Bin was just a Police Station chief. She felt that was still okay. If she said more, she felt her life would be in danger.

"Wait!" Ye Lin said in a low voice.

"I don't even want my diploma anymore, what else do you want?" Meng Qiu was about to lose her temper.

"Don't rush. First, look at my sincerity, then you can decide whether to speak," Ye Lin said with a smile, motioning for Meng Qiu to sit down.

Meng Qiu neither sat nor left. Sincerity, huh? Come on, show this old lady.

Ye Lin didn't force her. He directly pulled a bank card from his pocket, placed it on the table, and said, "This is 100,000. If you're willing to speak, this money is yours."

"Also, I can arrange for you to work in the provincial capital. Think about it."

100,000?

Meng Qiu's heart skipped a beat, against her will. She knew it was hot money, but the temptation was truly great for her.

She had worked hard for three years and only saved 5,000 yuan. Now it was 100,000 yuan.

She pursed her lips and slowly sat down.

"Are you serious?" Meng Qiu cautiously probed.

Ye Lin smiled slightly, took out two stacks of red bills directly from his small bag, and pushed them to Meng Qiu, "This is extra."

Meng Qiu felt her eyes were about to light up.

At this moment, she realized something: she used to think she loved her life more than money, but now she knew she loved money like her life. What she called cherishing life was truly worthless in front of this dazzling red.

"Deal. You also have to help me find a job in the provincial capital." Meng Qiu pressed one hand on the red bills and the other on the bank card.

Ye Lin smiled speechlessly. Damn it, if he had known this guy was a money grubber, why bother with the diploma?

"No problem. I always keep my word. Speak. Tell me everything you know," Ye Lin responded calmly.

Meng Qiu didn't care what Ye Lin was rushing her for. She first transferred the 100,000 from the bank card to her own account, then put away the two stacks of red bills. Only then did she contentedly begin to tell her story.

"Alright, ask away."

"Who is the leader behind Gu Qiang?" Ye Lin asked this question again, feeling his voice was a little tense.

"It's Wan Zhihao, Deputy Mayor, Deputy Mayor Wan," Meng Qiu said the name decisively and directly.

So quickly that Ye Lin even thought she was just speaking offhand.

Seeing Ye Lin's suspicious gaze, Meng Qiu pursed her lips and explained, "Every time we perform, we invite many leaders and some entrepreneurs. Sometimes Deputy Mayor Wan also comes."

"In the first year, I noticed that whenever Deputy Mayor Wan came, President Gu would give special rewards to a few girls. If he didn't come, there were none."

Ye Lin looked speechless: "Is it that simple?"

"How complicated does it need to be? Only you police officers think so complicatedly every day. What does a high-ranking official need to hide within the group?" Meng Qiu said with disdain.

Ye Lin laughed self-deprecatingly. It seemed that was indeed the case. Some things become simple once they are revealed, as long as the people involved dare to speak.

"Who else is often with Gu Qiang? Has Chen Bin also been there?" Ye Lin continued to ask, wanting to uncover any relationship between Chen Bin and Gu Qiang.

"I haven't seen Chen Bin. I only heard A Xiao mention him once," Meng Qiu said.

Ye Lin could understand why Chen Bin hadn't been there. After all, Chen Bin was only a police officer back then, and had just become a chief. He probably wasn't qualified to join Gu Qiang's core team before.

That meant there was someone above Chen Bin, and this person was very likely Gu Qiang's protector in the police force.

"Then during the performances, did anyone from the police force come? Who usually?"

There were no strict requirements for this kind of event. Whoever came the most was very likely the mole.

"Deputy Director Feng from the Municipal Bureau. He usually accompanies Deputy Mayor Wan."

"Feng Shikun?" Ye Lin whispered.

He recalled that the first time he was suspended, it seemed to be because Feng Shikun wouldn't let him go, and the Inspector Department was also under his supervision.

This seemed to connect. No wonder he wanted to get rid of him.

Watching Ye Lin nod repeatedly, Meng Qiu also showed a proud smile on her face. Her intelligence should have made this big boss very satisfied.

"One more question, where is the location? If it's really Wan, he should have a fixed place. Do you know this?"

"Or have you noticed where these so-called girls with special rewards go to receive their rewards?"

"This, I don't know the exact location, because these girls are invited upstairs, drugged, and then taken out. This is what A Xiao vaguely felt when she was groggy. After leaving Qiang Teng Group, it's about a half-hour drive."

"Also, A Xiao said it was very quiet there, like in the countryside, because she heard the chirping of insects."

Meng Qiu described it briefly, but she probably didn't know the specific location.

"Half-hour drive, insect chirping. I've noted it down." Ye Lin nodded.

The information Meng Qiu provided was already enough. The 120,000 yuan was well spent.

"Alright, if you think of anything later, give me a call. Also, be careful during this time. I'll dig out this tumor as soon as possible." Ye Lin gave a few instructions and then left in a hurry.

Meng Qiu, behind him, tightly clutched the red bills, happily paid for the coffee, and then went straight to the bank to deposit money, transfer money to her family... When Ye Lin returned to the bureau, it was already dinner time. After grabbing a few bites in the cafeteria, he rushed back to his office and called Yu Haifeng and Old Zhao together.

"I've dug up some explosive news."

As soon as the door closed, Ye Lin excitedly recounted the story of the dance troupe. When he mentioned Deputy Director Feng, both of them gasped, not expecting that the corrupt police had already risen to such a high position.
