Chapter 580 Sand Sea 6
Ten years have passed, and the naivety of the past has now transformed into the evil emperor.
He is now driven by a desperate madness, willing to pay any price for his goal.
The ten-year agreement is almost up, and he still needs to go to Changbai Mountain to pick up his brother.
However, before that, he must completely eliminate the Wang family, prevent Wang Zanghai from being resurrected, and at the same time reshuffle the Nine Gates, get them back on track, and restore their former glory.
Now that the Desert Project has begun, the Wang family has started to pay attention to Li Chu. Given their crazy ways of doing things, even if he were willing to give up, the Wang family would never let him go.
Thinking of this, Wu Xie unconsciously touched the seventeen scars on his arm, recalling the fate of the seventeen people Li Chu had chosen before him, and a pang of guilt flashed through his mind.
But it's absolutely impossible for him to abandon the plan at this point.
"It was my mistake to involve an innocent child in such a dangerous situation."
Wu Xie muttered to himself, "Therefore, when carrying out the plan, I will definitely do everything in my power to protect Li Cu."
Then, considering that Li Cu was currently under police protection and ordinary people could not see him at all: "Sigh! It seems that I can only ask Li Yiming for help now."
As he spoke, he looked at the pedestrians coming and going on the roadside and couldn't help but feel a little envious.
However, this feeling only lingered in his mind for a moment.
People are different!
Being born into the Wu family and the Nine Gates, he was destined to experience these things.
Wu Xie took a deep breath, reorganized his thoughts, and prepared to plan the next move.
……
At this moment, Li Chu had no idea what Wu Xie was thinking, and of course, even if he did, he wouldn't care.
All he can think about now is when his injuries will heal and when he can be discharged from the hospital.
School has already started, and the senior year curriculum is very demanding. If he doesn't return to school soon, he's worried that he won't be able to keep up with the pace of his studies.
He originally planned to organize the original owner's memories and learn as much high school knowledge as possible.
However, judging from the fact that the original owner only scored 150 points in the college entrance examination, the part of the memories related to knowledge left behind is pitifully small.
Relying on the original owner's memories is obviously not feasible; Li Chu can only rely on himself now.
However, his head and back injuries were too severe, and he could not be discharged from the hospital for the time being.
Especially now that Li Yiming has disappeared without a trace, countless ill-intentioned people are secretly watching him.
As things stand, even if he wanted to be discharged, the police would not agree.
Moreover, not only did they disagree, they also changed his ward and placed him under strict protection.
Having no other option, Li Cu had to ask the police to take his textbooks away.
Even if he can't understand the content in the textbook, it's always good to memorize the key points first, no matter what.
Thus, in this time-traveling journey, Li Cu entered the "carrying, carrying, carrying" stage ahead of schedule.
Meanwhile, the task force is also conducting its investigation swiftly and systematically.
Two days later, Li Yiming, who had been missing for many days, suddenly reappeared.
Li Yiming was unharmed and in good spirits. Apart from looking a little travel-worn, there was no sign that he had been kidnapped.
When questioned by the police, he simply said that he had been on a business trip recently and hadn't had time to notify Li Chu.
"Oh?" Zhang Wen's eyes flashed, but he continued to ask calmly, "Even if the company is in a hurry, you shouldn't be so short of time as to not even have time to make a phone call, right?"
Furthermore, your son has been in the hospital for over ten days now, and you haven't contacted him even once during that time. Are you really so comfortable leaving a minor child alone at home?
Upon hearing this, Li Yiming immediately looked as if he had been greatly wronged, his face and neck turning bright red as he pointed at Zhang Wen opposite him and launched into a tirade.
"Officer, what do you mean by this? Did you suspect me as a father all along? Did you think I wanted to go on a business trip? Did you think I didn't want to be with my child?"
I have no choice! If I don't go to work and don't go out to work, how will I support my family?
I didn't want Li Chu to encounter something like this either. Do you know how worried I was when I found out he was seriously injured? I even neglected my work and rushed back from out of town without even having time to eat. You…”
As he spoke, Li Yiming couldn't help but bury his face in his hands, squat down, and burst into tears.
Seeing such a grown man crying his heart out in front of them, everyone felt a little sorry for him.
Wang Zhao quickly stepped forward to persuade him, "Mr. Li, please calm down. The most important thing for us now is to sit down and have a proper discussion about this case."
Before you returned, someone attempted to kidnap Li Chu, claiming you were involved. So we simply want to gather information about you to help us solve the case as quickly as possible.
After a while, Li Yiming finally calmed down. His eyes were red from crying: "Where is Li Chu now? I want to see how he is."
Zhang Wen flicked the cigarette ash off his clothes: "Wang Zhao, you take Mr. Li there."
Wang Zhao nodded and left the police station with Li Yiming, heading to the hospital where Li Cu was.
Along the way, Wang Zhao briefly introduced the progress of the case to Li Yiming, while also subtly trying to extract information from Li Yiming.
After they left, the remaining members of the task force in the office all looked at Zhang Wen in unison, silently waiting for his instructions.
Zhang Wen frowned and pondered for a moment, his mind replaying Li Yiming's words and actions.
After a moment, he looked up at everyone and said decisively, "There's something wrong with this Li Yiming."
These words were like a bucket of cold water poured into a scalding pan of oil; the atmosphere in the meeting room instantly became lively, and everyone started discussing it animatedly.
"Li Yiming seemed agitated just now, but in reality, he was very calm and carefully answered our questions, constantly trying to exonerate himself."
“That’s right. Li Yiming seemed to be in the right, but he was actually very guilty. He was trying to explain himself from beginning to end, trying his best to make us believe him. Based on my previous experience in handling cases, he does have a problem.”
"When a father learns that his son has been seriously injured, his first reaction is not to care about his son's condition or who injured him, but instead he focuses entirely on exonerating himself. This just doesn't seem right."
“If he really has a problem, then his whereabouts these past few days are highly suspicious.”
"Could it be that he's protecting a criminal suspect? But why would he do that? He's the victim's biological father."
"Could it be that... Li Yiming knows the suspect, and they have some kind of grudge between them, and Li Cu's injury this time is because of Li Yiming?"
"It's not impossible! According to the information coming from Hangzhou, the Wu family is very likely involved in organized crime, and Li Yiming has an ordinary job, but he travels frequently for work. In fact, considering the workload of his company, his frequency of business trips is very abnormal."
"If that's the case, let's make some bold guesses. It's very possible that Wu Xie and Li Yiming knew each other before, and they may have even done some shady things together. However, for some reason, their relationship broke down, so Wu Xie used Li Chu to vent his dissatisfaction?"
"If that's the case, then Li Yiming wasn't on a business trip or kidnapped these past few days. He went into hiding and only returned after hearing that his son had been injured. That explains why he kept trying to exonerate himself earlier."
"No, no! Don't forget Huang Yan's strange behavior before his death, and don't overlook Shen Qiong. We can't focus all our attention on Wu Xie and Li Yiming while ignoring other important factors."
"And what exactly is inside that mysterious box? Why did Huang Yan suddenly go crazy when he saw that the box was empty? All of this needs further investigation."
"..."
The discussion continued enthusiastically, with various hypotheses and speculations emerging one after another.
However, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they would never have guessed Wu Xie's plan in the desert.
After all, any normal person knows that if you have a problem, you should contact the police.
Even though the Nine Gates have been ravaged by the Wang family, they still stubbornly persist.
Over the years, the Nine Gates have long been infiltrated by the Wang family.
If they had simply reported these matters to the authorities, the authorities would never have let the Wang family, this social scourge, go unpunished.
Although the Nine Gates themselves are not clean, compared to the Wang family, they are nothing.
But they refused to accept that; they were determined to fight the Wang family to the death.
Moreover, they not only had conflicts with Wang Jiagang, but also fought amongst themselves.
After years of fighting, apart from the Wu family, Xie family, and Huo family, the other six of the Nine Gates have almost all fallen.
All things considered, the Nine Gates' most glorious period was actually during Zhang Qishan's lifetime.
