Chapter 49: Officially Declaring War on Dark Night Gate
Here, Zhang Sen took a deep breath and quickly adjusted his mindset. "Of course! Go ahead, what's your idea?"
Lü Jiangnan stopped being polite and directly started analyzing: "If we say that Ma Pei is one of the members of the 'Dark Night Gate', but this possibility isn't too great. Because according to what we know, and looking at how 'Dark Night Gate' operates, apart from 'Dark Night' himself and that 'Chang Jiang', there aren't any other male members in 'Dark Night Gate'! That leaves only one possibility: Ma Pei is actually the mysterious 'Dark Night'!"
"If that's the case, then Ling Ziwu's appearance has two possibilities: First, Ling Ziwu's appearance was directed by him! So all along, he was acting in front of you, including bringing Ling Ziwu back to G City, were all part of his pre-planned plot. If it's like this, then 'Dark Night's' scheme is too terrifying. He took advantage of your friendship with him and your trust in him, step by step making you walk into the conspiracy he designed, until finally, he struck you down!"
"Second possibility: Ling Ziwai's appearance was completely beyond his expectations, then Ling Ziwai is a pawn in the hands of the third force! Who arranged for Ling Ziwai's task? From the conversation you intercepted, we can know without a doubt that this person is 'Changjiang'!"
"In this way, we can draw a conclusion: the planner of the third force is ninety percent certain to be 'Yangtze River', the person who contacted 'Dark Night Gate' from outside. And Ling Ziyu's appearance gave us an information: at the same time when 'Dark Night Gate' made a move on you, the third force represented by 'Yangtze River' also started to declare war on 'Dark Night Gate'."
It can be said that the planner of the third force is quite familiar with Ma Pei, he knows that Ma Pei's biggest weakness is Mei Yu, so Ling Ziwu's appearance makes Ma Pei unprepared. Upon learning that Ling Ziwu was not actually Mei Yu, he made a very irrational decision: to bring Ling Ziwu back to G City and have her work at his own company, believing that with close contact, he would be able to uncover the mystery!
"If the appearance of Ling Ziwai marked the beginning of the confrontation between 'Dark Night Gate' and the third force, then without a doubt, the Jiang's incident is a trump card played by the third force, indicating that the third force has officially declared war on 'Dark Night Gate'."
At this time, Zhang Sen had gradually calmed down and slowly followed Lv Jiangnan's analysis into deep thought: "So, 'Dark Night Gate', the third force, and us, we three have formed a very mysterious relationship. I am investigating 'Dark Night Gate', at the same time I am also one of the targets of 'Dark Night Gate', our relationship is naturally hostile; The third force wants to replace 'Dark Night Gate', as the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so I and the third force have temporarily formed an alliance.
"If Ma Pei is indeed 'Dark Night', then in the Jiang's case, he sought my help at the same time. As for me, I couldn't let a third force run amok in G City either. At that time, I and the 'Dark Night Gate' led by Ma Pei stood on the same line again; but in the end, they both became enemies of mine at the same time, and they formed a temporary alliance!"
"In this mysterious network of relationships, there is a rather enigmatic existence, that is, I Zhang Mouren, or the existence represented by my identity as a public security agency! Right?"
Lü Jiangnan nodded: "That's right, it is!"
After some thought, he slowly opened his mouth again: "Of course, there is another possibility. That is, Ma Pei didn't have any problems at all, and he was just a big fat sheep that 'Dark Night Gate' or the third force had set their sights on."
Zhang Sen quickly picked up the conversation: "If Ma Pei is innocent, then we can understand and analyze it like this: 'Midnight Gate' is no longer satisfied with their current small-time harassment of some second- or third-rate business enterprises. Because since my father's incident last year made them famous overnight, as far as I know, they haven't been involved in any big deals again. And for an organization like that, regardless of its size, the amount of money they've invested is undoubtedly astonishing."
"They invested but couldn't get returns, which obviously went against their original intention. They urgently needed a big profit, so they set their sights on Ma Pei, or rather, 'Huayu Group'. Of course, it's also possible that someone paid them to take down Ma Pei, and if that's true, the amount would be breathtaking!"
"And that third force, which has just emerged, is also eager to have a sensational event to enable it to quickly possess the strength to counter 'Dark Night Gate', because compared to the current popularity of 'Dark Night Gate', it must make a high-profile appearance in order to attract the attention of the circle it hopes to attract. Thus, coincidentally, its gaze also fell on Hua Yu."
Lü Jiangnan looked at Zhang Sen, who quickly freed himself from his personal emotions and participated in the analysis of the case. His calm and wise mind made him admire the professional quality of this "Black Way Executioner" once again. He patted Zhang Sen's shoulder and smiled: "I still have a few days to stay in G City. If it's convenient, I'd like to meet Ma Pei, who is legendary in the business world of G City and even the whole country. To be honest, no matter what the situation is, I'm very interested in this Ma Pei."
