C154 (2/2)
”At that time, nothing happened. However, just half a month later, a construction worker suddenly died at the entrance of that building.” He glanced at Wang Jinglong, who was sitting beside him, and said, ”At that time, we reported it to the police, but according to the forensic investigation, that worker died suddenly due to exceeding the standards, so at that time, we gave the worker's family a sum of money to settle down, but we didn't take it to heart.”
”But who would have thought that in less than three days, another person had died. This time, it was two people who died. However, it was not the workers who died, but the foremen.”
Fang Jin's brows slightly knitted, but she did not express any opinions. She merely raised her hand towards Wang Mingshan, ”Continue.”
Wang Mingshan took a deep breath and continued, ”At that time, the forensic investigation results were exactly the same as the worker from before. Although we all felt it was a little strange, we just thought it was a coincidence.”
A trace of fear appeared on Wang Mingshan's face, ”But yesterday, four more people died in that building, and these four people are still the foremen and workers who built the construction site.”
Some of Wang Mingshan's words didn't come out, but Fang Jin was very clear in his heart. After all, Wang Mingshan was a businessman. Now that something like this had happened, it must have dealt a huge blow to his reputation.
More importantly, after several consecutive murders, no one would buy the building that Wang Mingshan had built. This was the most unbearable thing for Wang Mingshan.
Because of this, Wang Mingshan hoped to find a way to solve the problem, find the real culprit, and then solve his current crisis.
After Wang Mingshan explained the sequence of events, he fell silent. He stared at Fang Jin with pleading eyes, sitting on the sofa, waiting for her reply.
Fang Jin did not immediately answer Wang Mingshan's question, but instead quietly pondered on the pros and cons of this matter.
Seeing that Fang Jin was still thinking in silence, Wang Mingshan couldn't help but clench his teeth. He had obviously made a decision.
At this moment, Wang Mingshan took out a wooden box from his pocket and slowly placed it on the tea table in front of them.
Fang Jin couldn't help but be startled by Wang Mingshan's action. He then asked with some doubt, ”Mr. Wang, what is the meaning of this?”
An obvious trace of lament flashed across Wang Mingshan's face. He opened his mouth and said, ”This is my family heirloom jade pendant. As the deposit for this matter, when this matter is over, I will have another reward.”
Just as he was about to refuse, Wang Jinglong, who was sitting at the side, hurriedly said, ”Brother Fang, just take it as a favor. My cousin here has already reached the end of the road, and I'm afraid you're the only one who can help him in all of Jiangling City.”
Fang Jin looked at Wang Mingshan and then at Wang Jinglong, who was sitting at the side. At this moment, he helplessly sighed and slowly nodded his head. He had finally agreed.
He could tell that what Wang Jinglong said was not a lie. If Wang Mingshan had no other way, he wouldn't have come running over.
Since he had already decided to help Wang Mingshan, then the reward that he should receive should naturally not be little. After all, the same thing is the same thing. Fang Jin stretched out her hand and put away the wooden box on the tea table.
”Alright, I agree to this matter. Later, I will bring you to that dead man's building to take a look.” Fang Jin slowly stood up from the sofa and said calmly.
”Alright, alright.” Seeing that Fang Jin had agreed, Wang Mingshan and Wang Jinglong couldn't help but look at each other. Both of their faces simultaneously revealed a happy expression.
From their point of view, since Fang Jin was a member of the National Security Bureau, she must have some real ability. This small matter must have been easy for her.
Fang Jin didn't say anything more to Wang Jinglong as she quietly waited for Wang Mingshan's orders.
After Wang Jinglong said this to Fang Jin, he also followed behind Wang Mingshan and walked out of the office. Obviously, he had gone to discuss something. However, all of this had nothing to do with Fang Jin. Since he had already promised Wang Jinglong, Fang Jin naturally wouldn't stand idly by and watch.
Only when both of them had completely left the office did Fang Jin take out the wooden box that was used as a deposit by Wang Mingshan.
When the wooden box was opened and the contents were clearly seen, Fang Jin couldn't help but be startled. This was because the jade pendant in this wooden box was exactly the same as the Linglong Jade pendant that Fang Jin had obtained in the Lin Clan in Ling Nan.
Whether it was the appearance or the texture, there was almost no difference between the two.
”How, how is this possible?” Fang Jin's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. He never would have thought that he would encounter such a situation today.
Fang Jin reached out and took the jade pendant from the wooden box, placing it in his hand and carefully examining it. This jade pendant had traces of spiritual energy within it. Of course, ordinary people would not be able to sense it. Only a cultivator like him would be able to detect it. This jade pendant gave him the same feeling as the Linglong Jade pendant.
