Chapter 204: The Trap

Chapter 204

Zou Wang found that the key witness Luo Hongxin, who was the assistant of the forensic doctor who performed the autopsy on Song JinXing's parents' corpses years ago.

The autopsy was done very secretly that year. Old Master Song didn't dare find the inspection institutions that cooperated with the funeral home, because these institutions were generally connected with the police system.

He used his connections to find a branch institution of an overseas organization in Jing City. Because the corpses that were sent at that time were already very mutilated, they couldn't be sent to the institution. They could only let the forensic doctor from the institution disguise himself and bring the testing equipment to the funeral home.

But many testing instruments couldn't be brought over either. Old Master Song bribed a staff member of the funeral home who was responsible for the autopsy and borrowed the testing equipment of the funeral home.

According to what Luo Hongxin said, the American who performed the autopsy on Song JinXing's parents was, at that time, not yet his assistant. He could only be considered a janitor in the laboratory. Jobs like going out for tests usually didn't fall on him, but that time the American didn't call anyone else. He only called him and made him sign a confidentiality agreement with a high breach penalty before going.

Luo Hongxin had been wary ever since he signed the confidentiality agreement, fearing that the American would do something bad and get him involved. Later when they arrived at the site for the autopsy, he actually didn't let him get close either. When the American went out holding the report to meet the family, he took the opportunity while tidying up the equipment to secretly make a copy of the autopsy report and tucked it into his shoe insoles before safely taking it out.

Later, he found out the dead were the third son of the Song Group, but Song Deming, the person in charge of the Song Group and the deceased's father, publicly announced it was an accident. So he didn't dare take out the autopsy report showing the deceased had drunk hallucinogenic drugs before death.

He had always kept this secret and didn't dare tell anyone about it for so many years until Zou Wang found him and promised him many benefits. After Luo Hongxin confirmed the current person in charge of the Song Group was the deceased's son, he finally dared to testify.

But he was worried it was the murderer's scheme to trick him into handing over evidence and kill him to keep him quiet. So he demanded that he must meet Song JinXing himself before providing the evidence and telling all the details he saw that year.

This matter had to be done quickly. Zou Wang soon set a time and place with the other party.

The location was set by Luo Hongxin. This person was obviously very cautious. He didn't give out the complete address all at once. Instead, after Zhong Ruanxing arrived at the designated location, he told her the next location. Like this they advanced all the way. After two hours, they arrived at a remote suburb.

Before getting off the car, Zhong Ruanxing looked at the map. This suburb was about 100 kilometers away from Jing City. Looking around, there were mostly blue-roofed factory buildings among the withered trees. Scattered among them were some rural self-built houses, looking rather desolate.

Per Luo Hongxin's request, she only brought Zou Wang with her.

The car stopped at the roadside. They had to walk on the muddy path ahead. Zou Wang looked around and somehow felt a little uneasy, "Boss Song, or you wait in the car. I'll go bring Luo Hongxin over."

Zhong Ruanxing looked ahead and shook her head, "He won't come. Let's go."

Luo Hongxin stopped at the bamboo curtain door and looked back with an honest silly smile still on his face, "I work at factories, those factories you passed by on your way here."

Zhong Ruanxing nodded with a smile, "Hard work. Go get it. We'll wait for you."

Luo Hongxin nodded and strode out the door.

After many years of experience, Zou Wang's instinct for danger reached its peak at this moment. He stood up abruptly, "Boss Song, I'll stand guard at the door."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a click as the door was locked.

The room door consisted of a security door and a ventilated insect-proof bamboo curtain door. As soon as both doors were locked, an electric protective bar also dropped down outside the window behind the sofa.

Zou Wang rushed to the door the moment he noticed. But the other side was too fast. He shouted angrily and shook the door violently, but the reinforced double doors didn't budge at all.

Zou Wang immediately took out his phone to call the police emergency number set as a quick dial. But the full signal from when they came in was now completely gone.

Zou Wang's mind blanked for a second but still stubbornly tried twice.

Zhong Ruanxing, sitting steadily on the sofa, suddenly laughed, "Don't bother. He turned on a signal jammer."

Zou Wang finally reacted. His voice shook a little, "Sorry Boss Song, I failed my job. We were tricked by others. This is a trap they set to lure you here. They want to..."

When he realized what the other side wanted to do, Zou Wang's face turned pale.

What else could they do? Of course it was to fake an accident like back then to kill this enemy who kept pursuing the truth!

Zou Wang had been in this profession for many years. This was the first time he slipped up. He was almost in tears now, "Sorry Boss Song, it's my fault. I fell for their scheme!"

Zhong Ruanxing looked at this room that sealed off all exits, slowly turned his head and smiled at Zou Wang: "Who knows if it isn't the other side who has fallen into our trap?"
