Chapter 1326 - 1353: Clues to the Truth

Chapter 1326: Chapter 1353: Clues to the Truth

In the next two days, Li Tingyan and his crew followed the clues to search for pirates.

However, the pirates were cunning and left the island after taking the supplies. Li Tingyan had limited manpower and time, so he couldn’t chase the pirates at the cost of jeopardizing the bigger picture for a month’s supplies.

Returning empty-handed, Li Tingyan was in a bad mood and instructed his crew to keep this matter under wraps, to prevent the fishermen from hearing and causing panic.

"Tingyan, the blood test results are out."

Nianyang handed the blood test report to Li Tingyan, confirming that someone indeed drugged the alcohol.

Li Tingyan suddenly clenched his fist and said through gritted teeth, "It seems Kang Quan has lost his mind, daring to cooperate with the pirates."

Nianyang’s gentle voice eased his irritation, "Tingyan, the drug found in the alcohol the crew drank is a special solution used for anesthesia during surgery, which is a prescription medication.

The dosage and purchase channel require formal procedures; it cannot be bought under a personal name. So Kang Quan definitely got it from the medical room. You should secretly investigate who has secretly used such medication recently from the medical room."

Li Tingyan understood immediately, "Alright, I’ll go check right away."

With his current capability, it’s quite easy to investigate.

The result was as expected by the two.

Indeed, it was Ni Jia who did it, but they lacked concrete evidence, only dry records.

With just this, presenting it to the company can easily lead to counter-accusations of framing, making matters more complicated.

Li Tingyan knitted his brows in worry, contemplating how to explain to the company with delivery looming.

At this moment, they received news that the supplies on Kang Quan’s side are available again. He intentionally leaked information that he sold his house in the city to make up for the supplies.

Clearly covering up.

Obviously colluding with the pirates.

Using Li Tingyan’s supplies to alleviate his pressing needs.

Absolutely shameless.

Yet Li Tingyan couldn’t confront him, as it’s apparent Kang Quan had prepared thoroughly this time.

"Tingyan, don’t get anxious."

Nianyang calmed the increasingly agitated Li Tingyan, offering him advice,

"Since Kang Quan claims the supplies came from selling his house, can we temporarily use our money to make up for the missing supplies? At least let the fishermen and crew have meals?"

Li Tingyan’s eye flashed with ferocity, "But I’m not willing to, I’m not willing to have Kang Quan shamelessly rob the supplies. That was the result of everyone’s hard work, why should it benefit others? I must get back my supplies."

Nianyang’s eyes flickered, "We must retrieve the supplies, but we need more evidence and find the mole before reporting to the company. But you know, we don’t have enough time now. First, fill the gap, and then investigate slowly, there’s always a way out."

It seems this is the only way for now.

Just as they were about to implement it, news spread that Li Tingyan’s warehouse was ransacked.

Fishermen in Li Tingyan’s region heard that the supplies were gone and were furious, directly abandoning their posts and protesting at Li Tingyan’s house.

Just as Li Tingyan was busy arranging new deliveries, Nianyang was the only one at home, bewildered by the scene.
