Chasing Donovan Liu's Shadow Chapter 3

Longteng Group is a distinguished guest of Jingshan City. In order to win this cooperation, everyone in the city has made arduous efforts. Especially the woman surnamed Fang, she was so arrogant that she could not live in this world. Gideon Jiang had interacted with her once, when he accompanied her on a sightseeing trip. He was still the criminal investigation captain at the time, and he was asked to go by name by the newly appointed mayor Preston Cheng. The main task is to be responsible for Harper Fang's safety. After spending two days with him, he almost pissed him off. This woman was not only arrogant, but also almost cold. No wonder Jingshan called her a frozen beauty in private.

Gideon Jiang did not dare to bring his speculation to work.

After much deliberation, the task force decided to start with a huge sum of 380,000 yuan. This is the only clue at present.

In accordance with the direction of project payment, the task force launched a series of investigations.

Jingshan Group was originally a village-run enterprise in Jingbei County. The founder was Clayton Wang, Donovan Liu’s brother-in-law. This factory was established from the village to the county and became the largest private enterprise in Jingbei County. Ten years ago, the factory suddenly fell into trouble. , it was once on the verge of closing down. People demanding debts rushed through the door, and the talented man Clayton Wang even abandoned the factory and ran away. Due to many reasons, the factory almost went bankrupt. Later, after coordination with various parties in the county, Clayton Wang himself agreed and made his brother-in-law Donovan Liu the director of the factory, dumping the assets and debts to Donovan Liu. Unexpectedly, it took Donovan Liu less than seven years to develop a cement factory with a debt of more than 5 million into the largest comprehensive energy business flow and trade enterprise in Jingshan City, and became the leading and backbone enterprise in Jingshan City. When the group was established, the city mobilized him to locate the group's headquarters in Jingshan City and built the most beautiful and spectacular office building in Jingshan City.

However, there were rumors in the society that Donovan Liu owed the engineering team a lot of money for the project, and some foremen had stayed outside his small foreign-style building for days and nights in order to collect the debt. Of course, this was just a rumor, and Gideon Jiang had never seen it with his own eyes.

I hope the 380,000 yuan was paid for the project.

The relevant information was quickly retrieved. According to financial reports, Jingshan Group owed five construction companies a total of more than 20 million yuan in project payments. The largest one was Jingbei County Giant Construction Company, which owed almost 800 yuan in total. Ten thousand. He said it was almost because the accounts provided by the finance department were not detailed accounts. Finn Xiao said that when calculating accounts, they always like to talk about approximates and possibilities, and the figures provided are not accurate.

According to financial personnel, Yang Dawei, the owner of the giant construction company, went to Jingshan Group one week before Donovan Liu disappeared and cried and made a fuss, saying that he didn’t want to live anymore and that if he didn’t pay him, he would die in front of Donovan Liu. Donovan Liu was angry and annoyed. He threw a knife to Yang Dawei and said, "Don't I owe you some money? It's such a big deal. If you dare, die now." As a result, Yang Juju made Donovan Liu scared back.

This situation is important. The task force quickly launched an investigation into Yang Dawei.

On the other hand, Gideon Jiang decided to investigate Donovan Liu's private life. He couldn't explain why. Gideon Jiang always felt that the eyes of those women were complicated. Cassidy Su and Ivy Lin, why did they behave so when asked about Donovan Liu's relationship with women? Abnormal? Could it be that, as Ellis Wang said, Donovan Liu's disappearance was related to women? He did not give this task to Finn Xiao, but to Miles Zhang, the second team criminal policeman who was not involved in the investigation of this case.

"This matter must be carried out secretly and must not be known to the task force." He told Miles Zhang.

"Don't worry, I, Miles Zhang, always do things without knowing what's going on." Miles Zhang smiled slyly. He is a trustworthy person and never talks too much.

Gideon Jiang put the situation together and reported to Mayor Preston Cheng. Upon hearing this, Preston Cheng was still standing still with a somewhat unhappy face. As soon as Donovan Liu disappeared, pressure from all aspects rushed towards him. Some people even rumored that Donovan Liu Absconded with huge sums of money. He told Gideon Jiang that the case must be solved within a time limit, otherwise Jingshan will be in chaos. Gideon Jiang nodded.

Compared with the tension and anxiety of the task force, Jingshan City showed a different scene. In the streets and alleys, people talked about the disappearance of the multimillionaire with gusto, as if it was a very happy thing. This abnormal behavior of the common people caused Gideon Jiang to think again. All the rumors about Donovan Liu popped up in his mind. Only then did Gideon Jiang realize that Mayor Preston Cheng's words were by no means alarmist.

For several days, the call Gideon Jiang was looking forward to did not come. Normally, if it was really a kidnapping, the criminal would have made a phone call to offer conditions, but he didn't. The monitored telephone lines were all silent and did not even ring. Gideon Jiang's mood became heavier and heavier. Based on his intuition, he believed that the possibility of Donovan Liu's survival was unlikely.

Miles Zhang soon found out that Donovan Liu had an ambiguous relationship with a woman named Tessa Zhou. Because of this woman, Donovan Liu and his wife Felicity Wang quarreled every day. Felicity Wang also moved in with her second brother Ellis Wang, who once threatened to castrate Donovan Liu.

Gideon Jiang was surprised, why did Tessa Zhou appear again?

"Where is Tessa Zhou now?"

"She left Jingshan Group five years ago and rented a private house in the suburbs. It is said that she wrote novels behind closed doors."

"Write a novel?" Gideon Jiang felt incredible.

While the two were talking, Gideon Jiang's cell phone rang, and it was Carter Lu. Gideon Jiang answered the phone, and Carter Lu said: "Jiang Bureau, a female body was found in the waste ditch behind the Xijiao Park. We are salvaging it."

"What?" Gideon Jiang was shocked and then asked: "Is it Felicity Wang?"

"We can't say for sure yet, but it's very possible." Carter Lu said.

"You stay there, I'll rush over right away." Gideon Jiang left Miles Zhang behind and walked out. Miles Zhang shouted behind him: "I haven't finished speaking yet---"

Gideon Jiang rushed to the scene. Carter Lu and the others had just fished out the body. Based on experience, Gideon Jiang judged that the deceased was about thirty years old, which was obviously inconsistent with Felicity Wang's age and figure. But he did not express his suspicions and ordered the forensic doctor to conduct a quick evaluation.

After forensic identification, the deceased was a young woman, who was initially determined to be 25 to 30 years old. There were traces of strangulation on the neck, and her face was disfigured by sulfuric acid. The body soon decomposed when exposed to the sun, which was horrific.

Two days later, it was concluded that the deceased was actually Tessa Zhou, who was strangled with a belt and thrown into a waste ditch. Because the body had been soaked in smelly water for too long, the time of death could not be accurately calculated, making it very difficult to solve the case. Who is so vicious, and who is so bold, who dares to commit crimes in the western suburbs park?
