Official Career Storm

He Sen's mind was racing as he pondered and analyzed where Luo Sanming might have hidden those secrets.

Quickly, he came up with a few answers.

"He usually resides at the General Mountain Villa, which has a basement."

"But I don't think he would hide secrets there; it's too obvious."

"Wuying Mountain Manor, he also has a villa there."

Two places?

"The possibility of Wuying Mountain Manor is high!"

"Why?"

"Because I've never been there!" He Sen said. "I found out by chance that he has a place there. I once had someone investigate it in private, that villa... no, it should be said as a manor."

"That manor occupies a large area. I even suspect he might have moved those university students there too."

"If he had to choose a place to hide those secrets, this place has the highest possibility!"

Song Guanchao silently jotted down these two places.

"Let me remind you, there are a lot of security personnel there, and they might have guns!"

"Not just you, even the police might not be able to get out unscathed."

"The security level of that manor is very high, and any stranger approaching will be discovered immediately."

"Even if you are certain it's the place, it's very difficult to infiltrate. Even if you manage to get in, the manor is so large, you couldn't possibly know where he hid it."

This is indeed a big problem.

However, for Song Guanchao, as long as he can determine exactly where he hid the secrets, the rest isn't a problem.

What needs to be done now is to confirm whether those secrets are in Wuying Mountain Manor!

"Where are you?"

"What?"

"Come out and meet me, I have a plan that needs to be discussed in person."

He Sen replied cautiously, "There's no need for that; we can communicate over the phone."

"Mr. He, you lack sincerity."

"If I weren't sincere, I wouldn't tell you this much."

"I've already told you where he might be hiding the secrets. If you want to find them, go ahead. If you're afraid, don't go, it's that simple."

"Of course, I'm going to look, but I need your help."

"How to help? To give money or to exert effort?"

"Neither, I need you to step up." Song Guanchao said, "I need you to eliminate an incorrect option. To determine where exactly he hid the secrets."

He Sen frowned, perplexed; he didn't understand what Song Guanchao meant.

How could he help?

Song Guanchao said, "You step forward and meet with Luo Sanming."

He Sen furrowed his brow, anger barely contained: "Song Guanchao, what do you mean?"

Song Guanchao said, "To eliminate incorrect options, someone must act as bait. Once Luo Sanming sees you, he'll capture you and take you to a place he considers safe. It could be the General Mountain Villa, or it could be Wuying Mountain Villa."

"Wherever he takes you, that's where the secrets are hidden."

"And you don't have to worry about him harming you. Since I'm asking you to meet him, I will make all necessary arrangements."

He Sen understood that, putting all other factors aside, the plan itself had no flaws and could even be considered perfect.

Besides, no one was more suitable to be bait than him.

Because he was now Luo Sanming's thorn in the side.

Once Luo Sanming confirmed his location, he would immediately take him away and force him to reveal whether he was hiding any secrets.

The place of questioning would be the place where secrets are hidden.

However, it was too dangerous.

"Abandon your idea."

He Sen said in a deep voice, "I will not step forward, nor will I risk my life!"

Song Guanchao said, "Don't you want to clear your name as a murder suspect? The police have already issued a warrant for us. Do you want to live your life like a rat in hiding, with a murderer's title over your head?"

He Sen sneered, "You don't have to use this to provoke me. To me, reputation is fleeting; do you think I care about that?"

"When things have calmed down, I will naturally find another place to live."

What he feared was never the warrant; it was Luo Sanming.

Once in his hands, life would be worse than death.

"Since Mr. He is unwilling, then forget it. I will take action myself, but I can't guarantee I'll find his secret."

Song Guanchao didn't argue further and hung up the phone directly.

Uncle Hong, smoking on the side, saw him hang up and smiled, "He didn't agree?"

"Mm." Song Guanchao replied, "As expected."

He hadn't pinned much hope on it.

If He Sen agreed, that would be best.

If not, he had corresponding solutions.

Song Guanchao checked the time; it was already after five.

He contacted Lu Feng to bring some food over.

...

On the other side, the involvement of Song Guanchao in the murder case, although suppressed, had still spread in a small circle; those who knew were few but not none.

Moreover, Jiang Yuan deliberately sent people to spread the news to those close to Song Guanchao.

Such as Liang Hao, and Wu Xinan.

Chu Xiao'e, after attending the standing committee meeting this morning and learning about it, became somewhat dispirited.

She believed that Song Guanchao was definitely wronged, but she could do nothing.

She wanted to contact Song Guanchao but was worried his phone was being monitored.

Liang Hao was shocked when he learned of this, but like Chu Xiao'e, he was powerless.

Moreover, given his level, he couldn't interfere.

If there was a chance to help Song Guanchao, he wouldn't hesitate, but the problem was he had no chance and didn't know how to help.

Si Qingqing felt bewildered when she heard about it.

Her mood was neither good nor bad.

She felt a bit of schadenfreude, but rationally she knew she shouldn't have such thoughts.

After all, Song Guanchao was her rock, and if he was indeed caught and sentenced, she would have no chance to rise further.

But thinking about Song Guanchao's attitude towards her, she couldn't help but feel a sense of glee.

The deputy district heads in Tongchi District were feeling triumphant.

Just half a month into office, Song Guanchao was entangled in a murder case.

It was indeed a piece of news worth celebrating.

Executive Deputy District Head Liu Zhonghe even invited a few deputy district heads for dinner that evening.

If nothing unexpected happened, the district head position would still be his in the end.

Some rejoice while others worry.

Liang Jianfeng received a call from the provincial department. After reviewing the case files, his heart sank.

Even though he knew Song Guanchao was framed, from the case files, there seemed to be almost no chance for Song Guanchao to overturn the case.

The physical evidence was too complete.

The most crucial point was that Song Guanchao had fled!

If he hadn't fled, it might have been slightly better.

But running had only increased suspicion on him.

At this moment, Liang Jianfeng was in Lingjiang City's Zhujiang Branch, reviewing the case files of a loan shark lawsuit.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

An unknown number.

His intuition told him it was a call from Song Guanchao!
