Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart-Chapter 688 - 687: It’s even harder to try to trace back to the source.
However, even so, Fang Yiqing had to admit that what Gu Tong said was correct.
The contributions made by the two of them in this mission were truly unforgettable.
If one were to still pursue any responsibility, it would be too much...
This might be the dilemma of heroes: you can’t criticize them or speak ill, the only way is to appease them...
Li Yan glanced at Fang Yiqing, easily understanding his thoughts. He gently patted the shoulder of the young woman, signaling her to lie down, and then said, "Regarding the Qi Family, the local police have already investigated, haven’t they?"
The Qi Family is a powerful family, not easy to provoke, so unless the local police have solid evidence, they wouldn’t act recklessly, which is understandable.
When this was brought up, Fang Yiqing sighed and said, "The Qi Family has deep roots, and a thorough investigation would stir up a lot of trouble. Moreover, their family is cautious and definitely leaves no handle outside..."
It is most difficult to thoroughly investigate a big family’s illicit dealings.
With wide-reaching resources, they can achieve many things that others cannot, using their connections.
Additionally, it’s even more challenging to shake the foundation behind them!
Li Yan had anticipated this situation long ago, so he wasn’t surprised. He tucked Gu Tong in and said, "Currently, the main issue isn’t the Qi Family, but rather that you can’t get in touch with them!"
The Qi Family indeed acts cautiously; previously, they spent a lot of effort to approach Lie She, but in the end, it wasn’t a complete trust, which shows the degree of the difficulty involved.
Fortunately, this time Li Yan took the initiative to break this deadlock, which can be considered a blessing in disguise, benefiting the local police.
"But now the Lie She connection is broken...tracing back will be even harder..." If it weren’t for this, the inspectors wouldn’t be pressuring round after round.
They are afraid of generating follow-up issues, causing unimaginable trouble.
Without Lie She, trying to connect with the Qi Family is almost impossible...
"Director Fang asked me! Why was Lie She injured? I haven’t answered before, but now I’ll answer you! Lie She wanted to retire from crime; thus, the Qi Family planned to kill him to silence the threat!"
Li Yan briefly recounted the process of dealing with Qi Li.
The most crucial part was informing Fang Yiqing about Qi Li’s actions to help him make accurate judgments.
Uttering a few words, Fang Yiqing’s jaw almost dropped to the floor, "If I follow your meaning...you’ve already contacted the Qi Family people...and they even have intentions of cooperation..."
What news could be more astonishing than this, considering the local authority had spent years on this without any results, and now Devil King overturned it with ease, even completely changing it!
"On the surface, it seems that way! However, the Qi Family cannot control my identity, nor are they sure of my safety; under such circumstances, they wouldn’t act rashly!"
Li Yan lowered his eyelids, his thin lips parted, and he added, "But now that Lie She is incapacitated, the Qi Family will definitely look for a better-controlled pawn! If I seize this opportunity to dominate the Provincial City alone, by then, even if the Qi Family wants to choose someone else, they might not be able to."
In this world, the most terrifying thing is being the only one!
If Li Yan’s false identity as a Drug Lord is solidified, dispelling all of the Qi Family’s doubts and becoming their only choice, then infiltrating the Qi Family to uncover the truth wouldn’t be too difficult.
