Chapter 4061: Backing Down
"Director Ye, something happened!" Tom's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Ye Haoran frowned slightly, didn't everything go smoothly? Said: "What's wrong?"
"Not long ago, Kaifeng called me and said that he had found the murderer of our people. But I always feel that something is wrong. I think you should come and see for yourself!" Tom said to Ye Haoran.
Listening to Tom's tone, Ye Haoran knew that something must have happened that even Tom couldn't handle. So I promised Tom that I would rush there right away.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Haoran said to Linda: "Linda, it seems I can't stay with you tonight."
"What happened? Do you want my help?" Linda looked at Ye Haoran worriedly.
Ye Haoran smiled and said: "Silly girl, don't worry, it's okay. I'll take you back first!"
Immediately, Ye Haoran sent Linda back first, and finally drove towards the underground casino that Tom said.
When Ye Haoran arrived here, he saw that Kaifeng was not here, but only left behind a younger brother.
And beside Tom, there was a man who had just died.
"What's going on?" Ye Haoran came to Tom and asked.
Tom pointed to the dead man and said: "Kaifeng said that the real murderer he found was the man on the ground named Fedeli, who was a big gambler. He killed two of our people because he was motivated by money. "
"What evidence is there?" Ye Haoran asked again.
"There's an incomplete video, and there's this witness," Tom explained.
There are videos and witnesses, and everything sounds reasonable. But Tom said there was something wrong with it, and it was clear that everything was not as simple as it seemed.
So, Ye Haoran first watched the video evidence provided by Kaifeng. This video was indeed true, but the picture above only showed a verbal dispute between the deceased on the ground and the advance team members of the Longhua Group, and neither party even made a move.
Then Ye Haoran interrogated the witness provided by Kai Feng. This person categorically said that he saw Fedeli kill their man.
As for why Fedeli died here, Tom said that when he came, Fedeli had breathed his last breath. Before Tom died, he asked Fedeli if he had done it, and Fedeli admitted it.
Everything didn't seem to be very suspicious, but Tom knew very well that the advance team members he sent were all capable people, and although this Fedeli was strong, he definitely did not easily kill the two advance team members of the Longhua Group. The ability of the team members. He also has no ability to prevent even the police station from finding clues.
But since this person was the real culprit that Kai Feng had definitely found, Tom felt even more strange. Logically speaking, based on Kaifeng's recent attitude towards Longhua Group, it means that Kaifeng should be a friend who keeps his promises and is trustworthy.
But this matter, on the surface, seems reasonable, but in fact it is full of loopholes. It may be justified to deal with some people who don't know the truth. But for Tom and Ye Haoran, this explanation and result are obviously not convincing enough.
"Director Ye, what should we do now?" Tom looked at Ye Haoran. After all, Kaifeng was the friend Ye Haoran said he wanted to make. Of course, he couldn't make the decision without permission. He had to get Ye Haoran's opinion first.
Ye Haoran looked at Tom, then at the younger brother left behind by Kai Feng, and then said: "Tom, let's go."
Tom immediately followed Ye Haoran and left the underground casino. When he walked outside, Tom seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, Director Ye, there is something I didn't say."
"What's the matter?" Ye Haoran asked.
"Although Kaifeng gave us this unconvincing result, he did not ask me for the remaining $900,000 in remuneration." Tom added.
Ye Haoran smiled coldly and said: "It seems that this Kaifeng is indeed hiding something from us. However, this Kaifeng finally did not let me down completely. At least he told me the truth indirectly."
Tom also nodded, which was one of the reasons why Tom did not confront Kai Feng on the spot. Otherwise, even if Kai Feng was the friend Ye Haoran said he wanted to make, he wouldn't be able to let Kai Feng leave alone.
Tom also guessed that Kaifeng must have some reasons for giving this result, otherwise there would be no need for Kaifeng to do this.
"Okay, let's not make random guesses. We will know everything once we meet Kai Feng in person. If I guessed correctly, that guy Kai Feng must be waiting for us in the office of Day and Night Bar right now! "Ye Haoran said, taking Tom directly towards the day and night bar.
Sure enough, when Ye Haoran and Tom arrived at the Day and Night Bar, the security guard here directly told Ye Haoran and Tom that Kaifeng was waiting for them in the office on the second floor.
Ye Haoran and Tom came to Kaifeng's office. Kaifeng did not close the door, and even had a table of food and wine placed on his table. When Kaifeng saw Ye Haoran and Tom coming over, he immediately said: "Director Ye, Mr. Tom, I have been waiting for you for a while. Come over and sit down first!"
Seeing this, Ye Haoran and Tom didn't say anything more, and immediately sat down, waiting for Kaifeng to give them an explanation.
Kai Feng waved to a younger brother and motioned for them to close the office door. After all this was done, Kaifeng picked up the glass filled with red wine in front of him and said: "Director Ye, Mr. Tom, I want to apologize to you first, and I will punish myself with a glass of wine first!"
After saying that, Kaifeng drank all the red wine in the glass.
"Kaifeng, don't beat around the bush, just tell the truth!" Ye Haoran didn't care about Kaifeng's tricks, he just wanted to know the truth of the matter.
Hearing what Ye Haoran said, Kaifeng put down the wine glass in his hand, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Director Ye, I really want to make you a friend. So, if you are also willing to make me a friend, You'd better listen to my advice and stop investigating this matter. Also, you plan to open Longhua Group's market in New Mexico here, so I advise you to give up this idea."
"Kaifeng, what do you mean by this?" Tom became a little angry immediately. His words made it clear that he looked down on Longhua Group.
Ye Haoran told Tom not to be angry, because Ye Haoran saw the sincerity between friends in Kaifeng's eyes.
"Kaifeng, our Longhua Group's success and status today are definitely not due to luck. I can hear the sincerity in what you just said, and I also feel your sincerity." Ye Haoran murmured. said.
"However, I, Ye Haoran, will never let my employees die without knowing anything. Therefore, no matter who is behind this matter, whether it is against our Longhua Group or the two vanguard members of our Longhua Group, Okay, as the chairman of Longhua Group, I have the obligation and right to clarify this matter and seek an explanation for my employees!" Ye Haoran finally said.
Seeing that Ye Haoran couldn't listen to his persuasion, Kai Feng had no choice but to shake his head and said: "Dr. Ye, since you said so, I won't persuade you anymore. After we drank this drink, the agreement we made before A write-off.”
Ye Haoran looked at Kai Feng and suddenly said: "Kai Feng, if I guess correctly, the truth you found out should be related to the force that can cure your illness!"
As soon as Ye Haoran said these words, Kai Feng's expression changed and he stared at Ye Haoran. He felt that he could not see through Ye Haoran more and more.
"Looking at your expression, I think I was right. Kaifeng, because of an agreement, you are willing to sincerely advise us not to take risks. This is enough to show that you are a person worth making friends with. Therefore, I don't want to lose you as a friend. ." Ye Haoran said again.
Kai Feng shook his head helplessly and said: "Mr. Ye is indeed an expert, but there are some things that we cannot control at all. Maybe this is the old saying you Chinese people say, that is, there is no destiny!"
Ye Haoran knew that his guess was correct. The truth about the death of the Longhua Group's advance team members that Kaifeng found out should be related to the people of the Scarlet Cross. And Kai Feng should have heard of the Scarlet Cross, and knew that the Scarlet Cross has a holy medicine that can bring people back to life.
Kaifeng worked so hard to save money before, probably just to find people from the Scarlet Cross Society, so that he could join the Scarlet Cross Society and get the holy medicine. Kai Feng used to be an ancient warrior. Although he was seriously injured and had an incurable disease, such a person was undoubtedly a rare talent for the Scarlet Cross.
That's why Kaifeng was unwilling to follow Ye Haoran and join the Longhua Group. Because if Kai Feng wants to survive, his only hope is to join the Scarlet Cross.
But this time, the investigation into the death of two members of the Longhua Group's advance team unexpectedly led Kaifeng to find people from the Scarlet Cross, and these people were the murderers who killed the Longhua Group's advance team members.
Therefore, after knowing the truth, of course Kaifeng directly chose to side with the Scarlet Cross. But because Kai Feng is a person who values friendship, he used this perfunctory result to get Ye Haoran to come to his door. Then he persuaded Ye Haoran not to pursue the matter and let Ye Haoran leave.
Ye Haoran roughly told the truth that he had guessed. Kaifeng nodded slightly and said, "Yes, that's the way it is. I must live, so I must stand with the Scarlet Cross. The Scarlet Cross, Even if I don’t say anything, Mr. Ye should know something about it!”
Ye Haoran nodded and said: "Of course I know about the Scarlet Cross. But I'm curious, why do they attack my people?"
Kaifeng hesitated for a while, but finally did not hide anything from Ye Haoran and said: "The reason is very simple. The Scarlet Cross does not want your Longhua Group to continue to expand its sphere of influence. Therefore, when they know that you are coming to New Mexico to develop, they will first Use your vanguard to warn you."
After Ye Haoran understood the intention of the Scarlet Cross, he sneered. Sure enough, the Scarlet Cross Society had great ambitions. Seeing the Longhua Group slowly becoming stronger, they began to curb the development of the Longhua Group.
