Chapter 118: Poisoning

Yu Jiajia blinked her big eyes and looked at An Zelin, saying, "I have You Xinfa's child! I am his fiancée!"

"What?" The usually steady Deputy Director Yang seemed to be shocked by this news and blurted out.

Yu Jiajia had already realized at this time that You Xinfa must have had an accident! He might already be dead! And the youth she had spent these past few years couldn't be wasted in vain!

So she had to get what belonged to her, such as that house!

She raised her head and looked at the two of them without fear: "Are you leaders from the City Bureau? I am You Xinfa's fiancée. We have been together for two years. He said he would get a marriage certificate with me soon!"

Yu Jiajia played a little trick at this time; she deliberately concealed the fact that she knew You Xinfa had a wife.

An Zelin smiled. These things were not important to him. It seemed this woman didn't know how You Xinfa died. He coughed lightly and said, "Ms. Yu, tell me in detail about all the details of You Xinfa being at your place tonight!"

"All? All of them?" Yu Jiajia asked somewhat strangely.

A meaningful look appeared in An Zelin's eyes as he said, "Yes, what he did, what he ate, what he drank—everything must be explained clearly!"

Yu Jiajia's face flushed. Deputy Director Yang, fearing she would say something outrageous, coughed lightly and said, "Focus on the main things done. As for the details, there's no need to describe them too much."

Thus, Yu Jiajia poured out everything that happened after You Xinfa came to find her. This girl was indeed very good at handling things; she picked the main points and stated You Xinfa's performance one by one. Then she looked at the two of them weakly and asked, "Is, is there anything seriously wrong with him?"

After listening to Yu Jiajia's words, An Zelin looked at Yang Suijun, seeking his opinion. Yang Suijun nodded slightly, and An Zelin said, "Branch Chief You Xinfa is dead!"

"Ah!" Yu Jiajia took a step back! "How could this happen? How did he die?"

Lu Haoxuan, who had been listening quietly outside, was also shocked. Could it be that, just as Gu Changzheng speculated, You Xinfa was poisoned?

At this time, Yang and An inside the room were also puzzled. If this woman had poisoned him, her performance now had no suspicious points at all. If it was an act, that would be too terrifying!

Of course, the detectives at Yu Jiajia's house should have finished searching by now. An Zelin was waiting for news from the scene.

Lu Haoxuan quietly left the hospital. You Xinfa's "accident" gave him a wake-up call: the other party already knew about their actions! It seemed that the energy of this big "tiger" hidden behind the scenes was not ordinary!

He had to report this matter to the task force immediately, and he absolutely could not intervene in this case, otherwise, he would be revealing his trump cards to the other party!

But if... he didn't dare to think any deeper. How could he reasonably join the special investigation team for the You case without attracting the other party's attention?

Just as Lu Haoxuan was worried about this matter, Hu Jinquan had already spread a large net, and the target was Zhang Shaojie!

Unexpectedly, the work efficiency of Xu Yang, who had been developed (threatened) into his informant (eye), was quite good!

Due to Hou Hongbo's accidental death, the Hou family couldn't care about harassing the Zhang family anymore, and the project's demolition work was carried out normally again.

As for the Hou Hongbo case, after Hu Jinquan reported the latest progress to Lu Haoxuan, under Lu Haoxuan's instruction, he kept the contents of Gong Zheng and Xu Yang's confessions confidential. Externally, he referred to everything outside the three of them (Criminal Police Officer Xiao Zhang and the two of them) and temporarily blocked all news.

Originally, Hu Jinquan also suspected there were problems internally through Gong Zheng's mouth. Now that his master had made such an arrangement, it made him even more certain of his guess. But when he wanted to ask something more, Lu Haoxuan refused to reveal any more information.

Hu Jinquan had no choice but to fill in the blanks: "Master, there are also those kinds of people in our team, right?"

Lu Haoxuan smiled without answering, only telling him to catch Zhang Shaojie as soon as possible, and it had to be a secret arrest!

So, from this point on, a large net targeting Zhang Shaojie was quietly spread out!

And the first task Hu Jinquan gave Xu Yang was to find a way to lure Zhang Shaojie out.

Originally, in Hu Jinquan's view, this task was somewhat difficult. After all, Zhang Shaojie still didn't dare to appear in Zizhen openly, and the agreement between their Zhang family and the Chang brothers was still valid!

Unexpectedly, this kid didn't know what method he used to actually make Zhang Shaojie willing to meet him. This news made Hu Jinquan very excited!

He quickly arranged the arrest plan, and the members of the action team, except for him, didn't even know who they were going to arrest!

The result made Hu Jinquan very satisfied. Zhang Shaojie was arrested almost before he could resist.

After arresting Zhang Shaojie, Hu Jinquan followed Lu Haoxuan's instructions to detain him without interrogation. This made Zhang Shaojie, who had prepared many countermeasures, dumbfounded!

Now he could only pin his hopes on their "own people" planted inside to pass the news of his arrest to his sister, Zhang Xiaoya.

Little did he know, this was exactly the effect Lu Haoxuan wanted to see. You Xinfa was dead, and the person who poisoned him must have known about the existence of the task force and also knew that You had been exposed, so they acted immediately to make him shut his mouth forever.

Now that Zhang Shaojie was arrested, it was to make the people behind him anxious. Only in such a situation would the other party be prone to making mistakes and give him a chance!

When he discovered that the target of the arrest was Zhang Shaojie, he had already been pinned down! Now he could only find a way to tell Zhang Xiaoya this news and secretly hinted to Zhang Shaojie not to admit anything.

On the other side, in Yu Jiajia's home in the Shuyuan residential compound, technical personnel from the City Bureau's Criminal Investigation Detachment carefully examined the house of over 100 square meters. On the dining table were a braised mandarin fish, boiled shrimp, tofu and vegetable soup, and a serving of pearl meatballs.

There were two sets of bowls and chopsticks on the dining table, two tall glasses, and one glass rim had a clear lipstick mark, which should be Yu Jiajia's, and the other was You Xinfa's. The forensic doctor sealed the wine, food, bowls, and chopsticks, preparing to take them back for testing.

According to Yu Jiajia's description, after the two met, You Xinfa never left the living room (the living room and dining room were connected without any partitions) except for a trip to the bathroom, and no other people appeared in the house. Thus, Yu Jiajia became the only suspect!

But when the forensic doctor's test results came out, it made An Zelin feel strange. The wine, food, bowls, and chopsticks at the time had no problems. So how was You Xinfa poisoned, and through what channel and method did the poisoner administer the poison? Was the poisoner really Yu Jiajia?

A series of questions swirled in An Zelin's mind, making him unable to grasp the key point for a moment. ===== CHAPTER 119 =====
