125: Su Yue is Yuan?
Liang Yuzhu got in touch with the large group outside and learned that Police had already set up a cordon underground.
And they had controlled all the exits of the underground warehouse, so no one coming out from inside would be missed!
Listening to the whistling police sirens above and the panicked footsteps in the passage, her tense nerves finally relaxed.
Now that all the exits of the underground warehouse were controlled by Police, those thugs hired by Wang Lin were undoubtedly trapped.
However... besides that group of thugs.
Under such heavy encirclement, could Yuan still easily leave here?
Moreover, his injuries needed to be treated as soon as possible...
Liang Yuzhu muttered a couple of sentences to herself and then looked at her own situation.
For the time being, she didn't continue to think about Yuan.
What she needed to do now was to arrest Wang Lin and the thugs he hired!
The situation outside was chaotic, and the thugs were fleeing in a panic.
These desperate people would do anything now to break through the encirclement.
With herself escorting Wang Lin and also looking after Lin Jia Miss, it was clearly inconvenient to act.
Just in case, Liang Yuzhu didn't plan to escort Wang Lin out, but stayed put and waited for support.
She glanced at Wang Lin, whose hands were cuffed behind his back on the ground.
The manhole cover hitting him in the face just now had made him dizzy, coupled with the sudden changes outside, he was still in a daze and showed no signs of putting up a desperate fight.
Liang Yuzhu first picked up the pistol she had kicked away and came before Lin Jia Miss.
"You're called Lin Jia, right? Don't worry, our people have surrounded this place, it will be safe soon."
Seeing that her emotions were relatively stable at the moment, although her hands were still trembling slightly.
After comforting her for a couple of sentences, Liang Yuzhu tentatively asked:
"Why did you come here? Or were you kidnapped by them?"
Lin Jia shook her head, organizing her words.
"I am the Sales Director of Tiancheng Group... Not long ago, a batch of raw materials for cosmetics was transported through Sihai Logistics."
"When verifying the cargo list, I found a list of goods that didn't belong to our company. It was Water Products from Japan, and the receiving location was this Water Products Company."
"I contacted Sihai Logistics at the time, asking if they had delivered something incorrectly. Their explanation was a System loophole."
"But after that, I found myself being followed..."
Listening to Lin Jia Miss's narration, Liang Yuzhu also roughly understood the whole story.
It turned out that this Sales Director of a cosmetic company, who seemingly had nothing to do with the smuggling case, was involved by such a strange coincidence.
At the same time, she couldn't help but admire Lin Jia Miss's courage to actually follow the clues and come to the Water Products Company to investigate.
And she had even seen the transaction list between Sihai Logistics and Japan?
That was undoubtedly an important human witness for this smuggling case!
Looking at it this way, it was no wonder Wang Lin had attacked her. It turned out he wanted to nip the problem in the bud!
Liang Yuzhu felt the fatigue on her body disappear.
She hadn't trusted Yuan wrongly, even risking herself to sneak in here with him!
Now, not only were Wang Lin and others captured, but such an important human witness was also successfully rescued!
This trip down the sewer wasn't in vain!
However, immediately afterwards, Liang Yuzhu felt confused about Yuan's motives.
What was Yuan's purpose in coming here so adventurously?
Was it just because Lin Jia Miss, as a witness, was useful for the smuggling case?
Liang Yuzhu couldn't be sure for a moment, so she simply asked directly:
"Lin Jia Miss, what is your relationship with Yuan? And how did you meet?"
"Yuan?" Lin Jia Miss paused, then replied:
"It's like this, I discovered I was being followed before, and my friend I share a rental with suggested I post on a forum to ask for help from a 'great master'."
"Yuan is someone I met on a detective forum. I met him offline once before, and he did teach me a lot..."
"Wait." Hearing this, Liang Yuzhu couldn't help but interrupt Lin Jia Miss.
Based on her years of experience in criminal investigation, she subtly sensed something was wrong, and her brows furrowed.
Posting on a forum to ask for help from a 'great master'...
And then just met Yuan like that?
What a joke? Was Yuan the kind of enthusiastic netizen who was so idle he would answer questions for strangers on a detective forum?
You know, the last time he took action, it cost Lan Zijun a full forty million!
And what also made Liang Yuzhu suspicious was the offline meeting Lin Jia Miss mentioned!
Even if Yuan was genuinely kind-hearted and helped Lin Jia Miss by chance.
Could a netizen met on a forum just happen to live in the same City and be able to meet offline?
The probability was too low, it didn't feel right no matter how she thought about it.
It was clear that Yuan had deliberately arranged it and was targeting Lin Jia Miss!
Thinking of this, Liang Yuzhu examined Lin Jia Miss again, her brows furrowed.
What was it about her that was worth Yuan going to such great lengths?
This was simply too abnormal...
Was it just because Lin Jia Miss was a human witness in the smuggling case?
Liang Yuzhu shook her head secretly, rejecting this guess.
She was now certain that Yuan's purpose was definitely not just to help Police solve the smuggling case more smoothly.
It seemed, unless Lin Jia Miss had some other important value for Yuan to utilize.
Or perhaps...
Liang Yuzhu's heart suddenly tensed, and a thought flashed through her mind!
She seemed to have overlooked something!
And it was something Lin Jia Miss had mentioned when she first started talking...
That's right! It was the friend Lin Jia Miss shared a rental with.
It was him who reminded Lin Jia Miss to post on the forum to seek help!
And soon after Lin Jia Miss posted, Yuan actively contacted Lin Jia Miss!
Could there be such a coincidence in the world? Liang Yuzhu didn't believe it.
This tenant Lin Jia Miss shared a rental with was probably not simple!
He might have some connection with Yuan...
Or even, he might actually be Yuan himself!
Because Liang Yuzhu knew that as long as one was in this society, they would inevitably interact with others.
And although Yuan's true identity was mysterious.
Under his countless disguises, there must also be people who interact with him under his true identity!
If she started from this point and re-examined Lin Jia Miss's identity and Yuan's various actions...
Everything seemed to make sense!
The reason Yuan risked coming to save her might not be for some hidden purpose.
It was Liang Yuzhu herself, out of habitual thinking, who had made things related to Yuan overly complicated!
Yuan risking action might simply be for personal reasons.
Looking at it this way, Lin Jia Miss was highly likely the key to figuring out Yuan's true identity!
Thinking this, Liang Yuzhu re-examined Lin Jia Miss.
She had also noticed long ago that Lin Jia Miss's appearance was quite outstanding, even comparable to Lan Zijun.
Moreover, the two had completely different temperaments.
Compared to Lan Zijun's untouchable 'big sister' vibe outside.
This Lin Jia Miss's personality was gentle and generous, making people feel comfortable when interacting with her.
Just based on her looks and figure.
Furthermore, they shared a rental and lived under the same roof daily...
Liang Yuzhu assessed the possible relationship between the two, then said seriously:
"Lin Jia, I think you must also be curious, right?"
"You and Yuan only met on the forum and don't have a deep connection."
"But why would Yuan risk coming to save you, knowing this was a setup by Wang Lin?"
As soon as she said this, Lin Jia Miss was indeed stunned.
She was also confused about this matter, so she subconsciously nodded.
But what Liang Yuzhu said next made Lin Jia Miss truly unbelievable!
"Based on what I currently know about Yuan, he won't easily reveal his true face to anyone."

"As for you saying you met Yuan offline, that should just be one of his disguises."
"So I now suspect... Yuan is very likely someone you know."
"Or even, he is someone right beside you."
As Liang Yuzhu's words fell, the expression on Lin Jia Miss's face froze.
According to her deduction, the person she saw at the coffee shop at that time was not Yuan's true face?
This was truly astonishing!
After all, the person sitting across from you and talking might not be their true self!
However, after a brief moment of surprise, Lin Jia Miss didn't doubt it.
Because she had just witnessed Yuan's capability.
That disguise made him look like a completely different person, even his voice had changed!
However... the last sentence Liang Yuzhu said made Lin Jia Miss unbelievable.
Yuan might be someone around her?
"This, that seems unlikely." Lin Jia Miss forced a bitter smile and explained:
"I have no relatives in this City. If I were really in danger, I don't think anyone would risk their life to save me."
"The only person I'm relatively close to in life... seems to be only Su Yue."
Lin Jia Miss said this, a hint of loneliness flashing in her eyes.
"Su Yue?" Liang Yuzhu repeated in a low voice, her brows slightly furrowed.
Logically, this name should be entering her sight for the first time.
But she felt inexplicably familiar with it, as if she had heard it somewhere.
However, it was clear that this was the name of Lin Jia Miss's shared tenant.
Liang Yuzhu didn't know what kind of person Su Yue was, so she could only let Lin Jia Miss judge.
"Lin Jia Miss, you've met Yuan, and you should also know this Su Yue well."
"Do you think there's a possibility... that Su Yue is Yuan?"
As soon as she said this, Lin Jia Miss was stunned and instinctively denied it:
"It can't be him, right?"
"I've been sharing a rental with him for so long, how could I not recognize him?"
However, before Lin Jia Miss could finish speaking, Liang Yuzhu followed up with the basis for her judgment.
"I know this might be hard to accept, but don't rush to deny it."
"Think back carefully, did you only tell Su Yue about being followed?"
"Was it him who told you to go to the forum to find a 'great master' for help, and after that, you met Yuan?"
As Liang Yuzhu narrated, Lin Jia Miss also seemed to be recalling something.
She nodded several times in succession, her expression gradually becoming horrified.
She also realized that all these coincidences were too natural and were indeed quite suspicious.
Seeing Lin Jia Miss's reaction, Liang Yuzhu became even more certain of her guess and continued:
"Although I don't know Yuan very well either, he seems to always have clear goals in his actions."
"Even the information we get from him, many things are only discovered after we investigate, finding the hidden clues behind them."
"Imagine, how could a person like him casually help a stranger online, and even actively show up to answer your confusion?"
Lin Jia Miss thought for a long time, finally nodding and saying:
"Thinking about it... although their appearances are different, their builds are indeed a bit similar."
Getting Lin Jia Miss's answer, Liang Yuzhu was quite curious about Su Yue.
She almost wanted to run and find the person right now!
After all, Yuan's identity was too mysterious, and he was quite resourceful.
Letting him remain hidden in the dark, she didn't know if it was a good or bad thing.
So, as long as there was a clue to investigate Yuan's identity, Liang Yuzhu wouldn't let go of the opportunity.
It seemed now that Su Yue was worth investigating.
"To figure out his identity... now is the best opportunity!"
"Yuan was just injured. As long as we check if Su Yue has an injury on his arm, it will be clear if they are the same person!"
"And we can also do a DNA comparison..."
A thought flashed through Liang Yuzhu's mind.
That's right, Yuan was injured! He was bleeding just now.
As long as she collected some blood samples and compared them with that Su Yue.
This would be the most conclusive evidence.
Thinking this, Liang Yuzhu recalled where Yuan had stood before.
She slowly walked forward, bending down to check the bloodstains on the ground.
But when she carefully distinguished with the dim light around, her expression instantly froze.
She was shocked to find that there were no bloodstains left on the ground!
How was this possible? She had clearly seen Yuan's left arm was injured before, and even the left sleeve was stained red.
How could there be no bloodstains left on the ground?
But the facts were right before her eyes, leaving no room for Liang Yuzhu to doubt.
The only explanation was that Yuan had done it intentionally.
He was truly so cautious in his actions!
Despite being shot, he still tried his best to erase any traces of himself!
Liang Yuzhu felt a sudden surprise in her heart, and then thought of something else...
That bullet! There must be his blood on it!
Was the bullet head still at the scene?
Liang Yuzhu then followed the bullet trajectory to find it, judging the location of the impact.
She reached out and felt along the concrete wall, and sure enough, she found a pit.
However, when Liang Yuzhu's fingertips probed inside, she found that no metal bullet head was left there.
It was as if it had been taken away long ago, with not a shred of evidence remaining.
"How could this be..."
Liang Yuzhu had just muttered, but suddenly remembered something.
That was, Yuan had stood by the wall before leaving and said a sentence to her.
Don't forget the agreement between them...
A bitter smile couldn't help but appear on Liang Yuzhu's lips.
It seemed Yuan had long guessed that she would collect his blood sample at the scene.
The sentence he said when leaving was also deliberately said for her to hear.
Thinking back now, it was like reminding her not to waste her effort.
Yuan didn't even leave the bullet that injured him.
As compensation for the information that helped solve the smuggling case, what exactly did she need to do for him?
...
And this series of actions by Liang Yuzhu also left Lin Jia Miss confused.
However, before she was confused for long, Liang Yuzhu spoke up on her own initiative:
"Yuan is really cautious, he didn't leave any traces."
"I originally wanted to collect some blood samples, but it seems there's no hope."
"However, even if we can't find blood, the wound won't heal quickly."
Liang Yuzhu said sincerely: "Lin Miss, this is my private request."
"I hope you can observe your shared tenant after you go back."
"Especially today, Yuan's left arm was injured..."
As Liang Yuzhu's words fell, a seed was planted in Lin Jia Miss's heart.
Could Yuan really be Su Yue?
But looking at his astonishing performance, he was able to single-handedly deal with more than ten thugs underground.
If it was really him, he was hiding too deeply!
"Oh, right, Lin Jia Miss." Liang Yuzhu suddenly thought of something and asked:
"What does your friend do?"
"He is a staff member of Yuantu Investment Company, I think in the Market Department, I'm not sure about the specifics."
"Far... View (Yuantu)?" Liang Yuzhu was immediately stunned.
Isn't that Lan Zijun's company?
...
