Yao trailed behind Dan Hanjie, entering the study a step behind him.

His stern face was devoid of emotion, but his eyes were slightly sombre.

“Couldn’t find anything?” Dan Hanjie turned around, walked up to the large wooden desk, and pulled out a cigarette from the box on top of it.

He lit it and took a gentle puff.

The white smoke swirled around his face, amplifying his already stunning and enchanting features, radiating an inexpressible sense of arrogance and nobility with every move he made.

“No direct evidence. There were three kidnappers in total. One is dead, and the remaining two have been arrested. The police investigation concludes that the kidnappers were not aware of the identity of their employer. They knew only that she was a woman who was generous with her advance. She paid part of the sum in advance, promising to pay the rest upon completion of the task.”

Yao paused for a moment.

“The one responsible for contacting the employer was the leader of the kidnappers, a man named Hei. According to his statement, he received this job through his connections. The payment card was his, and the money was transferred to his card directly after it was withdrawn. The person left no trace of their identity. The task given was to abduct Miss Qin on the day of the Qin Group’s shareholders’ meeting. Besides ensuring her absence from the meeting, they were also instructed to…”

Yao paused, meeting Dan Hanjie’s grim gaze, he dared not continue.

“This industry has its own rules. Once the advance was received, Hei and his accomplices made plans to execute the task. They intended to receive the remainder of the payment after the successful completion of the job. However, an unexpected wrench was thrown in their plans. By the time they were caught and brought to the police station, the employer who had previously contacted Hei had disappeared – presumably tipped off.”

“So, whoever this person is, they can’t be underestimated?”

Dan Hanjie took a deep puff of his cigarette, the smoke billowed and slowly dissipated in the air. Suddenly, he crushed the cigarette butt in the ashtray and looked up.

“Bring out this Hei person. Get someone to record Jin Lan’s voice and let him hear it.”

“About that…” Yao looked a bit hesitant, and looked away.

“Mr. Jie, I’m afraid that’s not possible right now… The two kidnappers suddenly died an hour after they were taken into police custody. Their cause of death is currently unknown and still under investigation, but based on the testimonies from the prison guards and the circumstances of their death, it’s likely they were poisoned.”

“Bang ”

“What did you say?”

Dan Hanjie brushed away the ashtray beside him and turned around, “Dead?!”

Yao reluctantly nodded, “It happened all of a sudden. At the time, I had already instructed the police to find out the truth as quickly as possible. However, things still went wrong. Mr. Jie, we might have underestimated the perpetrator’s ability this time.”

“The police are completely useless! They couldn’t even keep an eye on two people!”

Dan Hanjie yelled in anger, then quickly composed himself.

His eyes narrowed as he sank into the sofa, tapping the wooden desk thoughtfully.

“If even the police could be interfered with, it’s unlikely that Jin Lan could do it all by herself. How’s the investigation on Jin Chenye going?”

“Still under investigation.”

Dan Hanjie raised an eyebrow, giving Yao a sidelong glance.

If it was just a background check on an ordinary person, with Yao’s efficiency, there should’ve been results by now.

The fact that he had stalled for so long without daring to report back suggested that there was indeed something wrong with Jin Chenye…

“How much longer do you intend to have me wait?” Dan Hanjie paused, his casual gaze slowly lifting as his thin lips slightly parted, “What did you find? Tell me!”
