Chapter 732: The One Who Will Ultimately Die Is Definitely Him!

Chen Xiao thought of the word "link."

And these two words, at first, no one would think about, or rather, there wouldn’t be any hints to remind them.

Now, in the search for the knife-wielder, the murderer, and possibly the spies entrenched in Xiaozhuang South Town or Zhushan City, there is certainly a link between them.

In fact, what Chen Xiao did not explicitly say was that this link is likely the raw material mine in Zhushan City, which is considered one of the largest in the world!

There is someone who is likely closely connected with that mine!

As for the knife-wielder, the murderer, the other spies, they are all arranged around that mine.

What Chen Xiao needs to do now is to find the person related to that mine from Sang Yupeng and his son, as well as Ye Jun and even Ye Jun’s family.

If someone from the Sang Family works at the mine, then that person is suspicious.

If anyone from Ye Jun’s family, whether friends or distant relatives, is related to the mine, they are also suspicious.

If these two are the same person, then there is no doubt that this person is very likely the leader of the knife-wielding and spy organization entrenched in Zhushan City!

According to Chen Xiao’s instructions, both Qin Fei and Sun Zhou should find relevant personnel from the task force to screen for personnel relationships.

For a moment, the entire task force plunged into unprecedented busyness.

Fortunately, the manpower of the task force was sufficient; if it was not enough, additional personnel would not be mobilized from the police station.

In Chen Xiao’s words, all the people in Xiaozhuang South Town and Zhushan City are not to be trusted.

Chen Xiao sat in the office throughout.

He didn’t think further and didn’t go anywhere.

Whenever new personnel were found by the task force, Chen Xiao would write their names on the whiteboard, repeating the process again and again.

From day to night, everyone in the task force was busy.

However, Chen Xiao still remembered the thing to be mindful of, which was the decoy plan.

After night fell, Chen Xiao made a phone call to Liu Dayou.

The latter came to the office and was evidently already waiting:

"Brother Chen, is it ready to start? What should I do?"

"What you’re busy with during the day, continue at night. But differently, during the day you are following the police to check registry records, now you directly take those records and go to Ye Jun’s school to confirm with him!"

Liu Dayou was initially a bit confused.

He thought to himself, what needs confirmation in those records, and the details should already be clearly recorded in the registry.

But after thinking it over, Liu Dayou understood:

"I get it, Brother Chen, previously you threw me out as bait, now you’re asking me to meet Ye Jun, that’s like casting the rod!"

Chen Xiao gave a thumbs up: "Exactly."

Liu Dayou took a deep breath: "Okay, I’ll go now, and I should bring two police officers with me, right?"

"Yes, when you go, accompany two officers. But remember, no matter where and when, you must stay with those two officers, and never intentionally create opportunities to be alone for the sake of the plan."

"I get it, too obvious a trap is like having a pit dug in your own mind." Liu Dayou said, though soon he also questioned:

"But if that’s the case, where would he find the opportunity?"

"That depends on his mind; I don’t know exactly how he’ll act to carry out his murder plan right under the police’s noses."

Liu Dayou chuckled bitterly: "Then Brother Chen, you will be secretly protecting me all the time, right? After all, I’m only in my thirties, unmarried and without children yet!"

"Don’t worry, since I’m sending you to execute this plan, I’ll definitely be responsible for your safety!"

"Alright then, I’ll go find two police officers to execute the plan with me."

Liu Dayou hesitated no more and went out excitedly.

Watching his departing figure, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

The decoy plan isn’t actually very thorough; its success depends entirely on Chen Xiao’s grasp of Ye Jun’s psychology.

If he’s got it about 70-80%, the chances of the plan’s success are also 70-80%.

Chen Xiao got up and walked to the window.

Almost never smoking, he lit a cigarette at this moment.

Clumsily exhaling smoke, before long he saw Liu Dayou and the two police officers had set off.

Once Liu Dayou set off, naturally, he couldn’t stay at the police station any longer.

However, he didn’t need to hurry, as once Liu Dayou went to Ye Jun’s school, there would inevitably be a time lapse.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Xiao felt he could actually think, or rather, take some precautions.

As long as Liu Dayou went with the police, he turned into an obvious pawn on display.

This overt chess piece, at first Chen Xiao thought Ye Jun was most likely to capture it.

After all, open confrontation is far more likely to demonstrate his intellect than skulking.

Yet with the speculation of the knife-wielder, Chen Xiao felt this possibility decreased a bit.

Especially if the knife-wielder and Ye Jun were already familiar with each other, then the knife-wielder would certainly remind him at critical moments.

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao couldn’t help but make a phone call to Xiaoji.

"Hey, how is your investigation?"

Upon connection, Chen Xiao first inquired.

Xiaoji quickly replied: "Brother Chen, don’t worry, I and Black Cat have already obtained those accounts and tracked the login activities, give us some time, we’ll have news soon."

"Good, but I was just calling on the spur of the moment; the key is to remind you both to avoid being alone at any time and place. Especially Black Cat, she’s a girl, you need to take good care of her."

"Uh, Brother Chen, what do you mean by this? Why does it feel like someone intends to get us?"

"I’m not certain, but caution is warranted. Previously the murderer pulled a surprise attack, catching me and several task force captains off guard, so this time to prevent any chance occurrence, you two need to be careful."

As Chen Xiao instructed, Black Cat couldn’t help but say playfully:

"But Brother Chen Xiao, what about when I sleep? Surely you wouldn’t let Xiaoji sleep with me, right?"

"Dream on!" Before Chen Xiao could respond, Xiaoji retorted.

Black Cat scoffed, while Chen Xiao grinned, deliberately putting on a serious face and said: "Ideally, you two should stick together at all times; of course... Xiaoji, you mustn’t bully Black Cat, understood?"

Black Cat giggled: "Oh Brother Chen Xiao, let’s not be so serious. Rest assured, Xiaoji and I have already built deep camaraderie as comrades!"

"So, no matter when, we won’t let each other fall into dangerous situations!"

"Exactly, Brother Chen, facing any case, as long as you’re here, I have a firm belief. That is, the ones who end up losing their lives will never be us, but those daring killers!"

Listening to Xiaoji’s confident words, Chen Xiao’s face showed a smile.

The smile grew, but suddenly his expression froze!
