Chapter 320

"If you want to get to the bottom of this, we can only wait for Zhang Haifeng to wake up first." Tengyuan Jintai said in an unfriendly tone.

Although he doesn't get along with Gao Tian Longyi, this guy is after all the deputy Agency Director, he was blown up by someone, we can't just leave it unattended.

Suddenly.

Tengyuan Jintai suddenly thought of another question: "Chen Sang, why didn't you use a car today?"

Chen Yongren had already anticipated this: "I originally wanted Zhang Haifeng to bring the car, but this guy overslept, so I had him drive to work first, and I'd have him pick me up at noon."

"I don't know what happened afterwards."

Tengyuan Jintai slightly nodded: "Chen Sang, you really are lucky; if you had been in the car then, the victim would have been you."

"Chen Sang, from this moment on, you must be extremely careful!"

"Once the Military Statistics Bureau discovers you're not dead, they will definitely try to assassinate you again!"

"If those bastards dare to come out, even better; I've long been prepared to die at any moment!" Chen Yongren said through gritted teeth.

"These damned bastards have launched assassination attempts against me more than once."

"Haifeng's life or death is unknown now; I will certainly not let those bastards off lightly!"

"If Youzi had also been in the car then, she would have been hurt; I could accept my own death, but I will never allow Youzi to be involved!"

Tengyuan Jintai said: "That's exactly why you need to protect yourself well; otherwise, how could you protect Youzi?"

"Thank you for your concern, Director Tengyuan; I'll be careful." Chen Yongren nodded.

Gaotian Longyi is dead; the urgent task is to ferret out the assassin and clarify the matter.

The car bombing on Huaihai Middle Road quickly attracted the reporters' attention.

Tengyuan Jintai also seized the moment to hold a press conference, declaring that he would surely bring to justice those who disrupted peace and restore tranquility and stability to Songhu.

Afterwards, they arranged for Chen Yongren to go on stage and say a few words, temporarily suppressing the matter.

Because Zhang Haifeng received timely treatment, he regained consciousness a few days after surgery.

The lead surgeon said Zhang Haifeng was very lucky; the bullet practically grazed his heart, and any slight deviation would have killed him.

During this period, Zhang Haifeng was under strict surveillance; besides doctors, no visitors were allowed.

Upon learning that Zhang Haifeng had awakened.

Chen Yongren rushed to the hospital immediately; accompanying him were Gu Yongshan and her subordinates, as well as two officers sent by Tengyuan Jintai.

Upon entering the ward, Zhang Haifeng sat on the bed, his face pale; seeing Chen Yongren enter, he hastily rose and exclaimed excitedly, "Ren Ge!"

"You're not fully healed yet; don't move around!" Chen Yongren immediately stepped forward and pressed down on his shoulder.

"Secretary Zhang, how are you feeling?" Gu Yongshan asked politely.

Zhang Haifeng, after all, is Chen Yongren's man; even a seventh-rank official before the prime minister's gate, although it was an interrogation, Gu Yongshan didn't dare put on airs.

"Thank you for your concern, Director Gu; I feel fine. If you have any questions, just ask them directly." Seeing Gu Yongshan and them arrive, Zhang Haifeng knew what they intended.

When hit by the bullet, Zhang Haifeng truly thought he would die; upon waking, he couldn't help admiring Chen Yongren's marksmanship.

"Advisor Chen, please avoid conflict of interest, you know the rule." One of the officers looked at Chen Yongren.

Tengyuan Jintai valued Zhang Haifeng greatly, so these two Japanese officers were also very polite.

"Understood." Chen Yongren nodded.

Zhang Haifeng is his man; during the interrogation, Chen Yongren naturally had to avoid suspicion of collusion.

Moreover, he is the chief advisor of Office 76, so he must not put himself at risk.

"Mr. Zhang, why did Director Gao ride in Chen Yongren's car?"

Only after Chen Yongren left the room did one officer begin questioning, while the other assistant opened a folder to start recording.

Gu Yongshan also ordered her subordinates to record, staring fixedly at Zhang Haifeng's expression, trying to find a flaw in his demeanor.

Today's interrogation, Chen Yongren and his team had anticipated this and prepared statements in advance; Zhang Haifeng said: "Director Chen originally intended to use the car, but that day I overslept."

"He had me drive first to Office 76 to quickly prepare the documents needed for tomorrow's meeting, then pick him up at the Delos Restaurant on Huaihai Middle Road at noon."

Gu Yongshan nodded silently.

Back then, she had indeed seen Chen Yongren at the Delos Restaurant and had asked where Zhang Haifeng had gone.

"And then?" the Japanese second lieutenant continued to ask.

Zhang Haifeng vaguely replied: "As it turned out, in the morning Director Gao's car broke down, requiring the requisition of Director Chen's car; I dared not offend him, so I could only agree."

The few people in the room nodded.

Although Gaotian Longyi had not been here long, his manner was extremely overbearing.

Although Zhang Haifeng is Chen Yongren's confidant, in front of Gaotian Longyi he still seems somewhat inadequate.

"What did he requisition your car for?" the Japanese second lieutenant asked again.

"I don't know; he asked me to take him and his subordinates to Sveir Apartment." Zhang Haifeng said.

"Sveir Apartment?" the Japanese second lieutenant asked: "What did he go there for?"

"I dare not ask him; since he demanded it, I could only comply." Zhang Haifeng said helplessly.

Pausing, Zhang Haifeng added: "However, after he got in the car, he changed into civilian clothes, seemingly worried about being discovered, and he also forbade me from speaking of this."

"I also dared not ask further about this; I simply took them to Sveir Apartment."

"Isn't Sveir Apartment near Huaihai Middle Road?" Gu Yongshan suddenly asked.

Zhang Haifeng nodded: "That's right; after seeing Director Gao off, I intended to pick up Director Chen, but he not only prevented me from leaving, he also sent his men to monitor me, forbidding me from moving about freely."

"I could only wait patiently, but Director Gao soon came out."

"You mean he went to the apartment to meet someone?" the Japanese second lieutenant interrupted Zhang Haifeng's speech.

"That's right." Zhang Haifeng said: "After he came out, he brought people and first got into the car, not allowing me to approach the vehicle, as if they were discussing something."

"While I was waiting by the roadside, the vehicle suddenly exploded; afterward I was shot and lost consciousness, waking up only to find myself in the hospital."

The Japanese second lieutenant flipped through the interrogation record, pretending to make casual small talk, but in fact he was just rephrasing the previous questions to ask them again.

Zhang Haifeng was very familiar with these routines; his answers were flawless, without any deviation.

Takeda Ryuichi was killed in the blast, and Zhang Haifeng was also shot and near death.

This really doesn't look like acting.

If the Military Statistics Bureau were just acting, it would be too real; if the bullet had deviated even slightly, Zhang Haifeng could have died.

Based on the interrogation records of Chen Yongren and Zhang Haifeng, a conclusion can be reached.

The Military Statistics Bureau's agents found Chen Yongren's trail on Huaihai Middle Road, saw his car was there, and planned to plant a bomb in the car to kill Chen Yongren.

As a result, they mistakenly killed Takeda Ryuichi.

"Mr. Zhang, you may continue resting." After confirming the interrogation records were fine, the Japanese second lieutenant led his men out of the ward.

Although Chen Yongren was standing outside, he also clearly knew the situation inside the ward.

He passed the test.
