Chapter 47 Please note this however

  Lü Jiangnan's suspicions about Ma Pei made Zhang Sen feel a wave of disgust, but he was after all a professionally trained and qualified police officer, so despite the disgust, he still very seriously analyzed Lü Jiangnan's suspicions about Ma Pei with him.

  Regarding the doubts about Ma Pei, Lü Jiangnan replied: "Let's go back in time, to your trip with Ma Pei. First, tell me, how did Ma Pei know about your trip?"

  Zhang Sen thought for a moment and replied, "I told him. Two days before I went to the city, Ma Pei called me and said he was feeling down those few days, asking me to accompany him for a drink. I said I had to finish up my cases on hand because I would be gone for about a week and there were things that needed to be taken care of, so maybe I wouldn't have time to keep him company. He asked how many free days I had in the city, and I replied probably three or four days. He directly told me, 'Alright, I'll go too.' You take your police car, I'll drive mine, and we'll meet up in the city."

  "Alright," Lü Jiangnan nodded, "then this point can be considered as no suspicion."

  "Stop!" Zhang Sen hastily said, "What's with this 'even if', you have to make it clear."

  Lü Jiangnan smiled: "Okay, if you want to be suspicious, there's a bit of that. Ma Pei, as the general manager of Huayu Tianxia in G City, how many things does he have to do every day? How many people does he need to see? I dare bet that even if it were you, wanting to go to his company to find him during working hours without an appointment, you probably wouldn't be able to see him. How could he possibly just leave such a big company behind because of a bad mood and accompany you to the city to clear your mind?"

  "Moreover, how could someone like him, a successful businessman, possibly bring his emotions to work? How could he possibly lose control of his feelings?"

  Zhang Sen thought for a moment, then said seriously: "No! Last year, Ma Pei had mentioned wanting to take a long vacation and rest well, but there were always various reasons that prevented him from doing so. When he said he would accompany me to the city that day, I jokingly asked him: 'Isn't your schedule usually arranged two weeks in advance? How can you possibly take out a week's time to fool around? How can those people at Huayu let you go?' His response was: 'Don't we still have two days left? At worst, I'll just pull two all-nighters and arrange my work accordingly. As for those people, in the territory of Huayu, my word is law, and whoever dares to disobey will be dealt with.' So, this isn't a problem, you continue speaking."

  "Alright, I mentioned that earlier, this isn't a big deal. So, let's move on to the next point. You and Ma Pei going to the bar was a sudden idea, right? Including yourself, no one knew you were going to 'Dream Paris' beforehand, right? Who came up with this idea? Was it you or Ma Pei?" Lü Jiangnan sharply looked at Zhang Sen.

  "It was Ma Pei who brought it up. But before that, we didn't think of going out to drink at all. After finishing dinner, I made a phone call to confirm that the Municipal Public Security Bureau wouldn't have anything else to do with me that night, and only then did we discuss going out for a drink. Moreover, it was me who asked him to go out and play together that night, not him asking me. Originally, I told him that I would only have time to ask him out the night before leaving the city, and that night was an impromptu invitation from me." This doubt was also ruled out by Zhang Sen.

  "It has nothing to do with that night! Ling Ziwai arrived in the city half a month ago and became a wine promoter at 'Dream Paris' on the same day. She's like a farmer waiting by the tree stump, no matter which day you go to the bar, there will always be an opportunity for heroism. Think about it, Ling Ziwai looks almost identical to Ma Pei's ex-girlfriend, obviously she came prepared. In other words, no matter which day you ask Ma Pei out, he will suggest going to 'Dream Paris'!" Lu Jiangnan said seriously.

  Zhang Sen was displeased: "Anan, we're just analyzing, but your way of speaking clearly treats Ma Pei as a criminal suspect. Didn't I tell you about the temporary personnel data for the past half month that Xu Ju sent me? Most of the places Ma Pei and I might go to have unmarried women present, not every place has someone who looks very similar to Ling Ziyu, so it's unlikely we'll bring anyone else back to G City. So your suspicion is unreasonable."

  "Good!" Lü Jiangnan ignored Zhang Sen's expression, but lightly patted his hand in response to his words. "The problem is that half a month before you set out, the other side already knew your itinerary, so it's possible they arranged for someone to get close to you at places you might appear in the city."

  "But! Note my 'but'! Ma Pei only contacted you two days before your departure, so how would the other party know that Ma Pei was going to the city? Without Ma Pei, how would they arrange for people to get close to you at a place where Ma Pei might appear? Without Ma Pei, with your habits as Zhang Sen, would you go to such a luxurious place like 'Dream Paris' to consume? Without Ma Pei, wouldn't Ling Ziyu's appearance become completely meaningless?"

  "Don't interrupt me! Also, what's the point of targeting you and what does it have to do with Ma Pei? Why would they arrange for a Ling Ziyu who looks exactly like Ma Pei's ex-girlfriend to get close to you guys? No, to be exact, to get close to Ma Pei? Furthermore, according to the information obtained from the bug you installed at home, on the night when the Ling sisters moved into your house, they received a call from someone they called 'Chang Jiang'."

  "If I'm not mistaken, you said that the super-penetrating sound quality function of the latest American technology listener you used got a 'Changjiang' instruction for the two people: Ling Ziwu's current task is to cooperate with Ouyang Feifei to take you down. Note that it says 'current task'! So we can easily guess that before this, Ling Ziwu had a task, and that task was you!"

  "That is to say, this task was originally Ling Ziwu's, but because of Ma Pei's appearance, and because Ling Ziwu looks exactly like Ma Pei's ex-girlfriend, it's possible that Ma Pei will be moved by this reason and fall for Ling Ziwu. And I, on the other hand, would never have fallen for Ling Ziwu's trap. That's why Ou Yang Feifei took over from Ling Ziwu to get close to me, right? Come on! Doesn't this prove that Ma Pei has nothing to do with this matter? Otherwise, how could he not think of the issue of Ling Ziwu's appearance?" Zhang Sen directly interrupted Lü Jiangnan's words and continued to analyze. After finishing his analysis, he sneered at Lü Jiangnan in a very impolite manner!
