Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 426

Chapter 426: Chapter 426: Is there anything I need to cooperate with?

After speaking, he carried the package into the office.

Deputy Chief Geng followed him inside. "What did you want to say?"

Qiao Shaoguo set the package down and lit a cigarette for himself. "The incident at the forest farm... I’m afraid it’s not simple."

Deputy Chief Geng frowned. "Has Public Security found anything?"

Qiao Shaoguo took a drag from his cigarette. "Both the driver and his assistant are old hands. How could they make such a low-level mistake? Besides, the ropes on the truck are supposed to be checked every time. How could it be such a coincidence?"

「Meanwhile,」 Huo Jingrui had also arrived at the accident site at the forest farm. He came with a later group of comrades from the county Public Security, ostensibly hitching a ride to visit his partner.

After arriving, he re-examined the ropes used to tie the logs and made a significant discovery. However, he didn’t publicize it. Instead, he exchanged a meaningful glance with the Public Security officer in charge of the accident investigation while they took a smoke break.

Huo Jingrui shared his findings, "The ropes have been tampered with. It’s not visible to the naked eye, but they were likely soaked in a special chemical. You can take a sample for testing."

He thought for a moment before adding, "Also, that man who’s always with the farm director—the one said to be the director’s brother-in-law—seems a bit strange. You could have someone discretely investigate his recent activities."

The two didn’t talk for long. Afterward, Huo Jingrui started walking towards the Agricultural Reclamation Group. After all, if you’re going to put on an act, you might as well make it convincing.

The official reason given for Huo Jingrui’s presence was that Vice Factory Director Huo’s partner had been sent to the countryside here, and he had come to take care of her.

Yunyi had just finished examining a patient when she saw Huo Jingrui enter from outside. "Why are you here?"

She had just been to the county town yesterday. How did this guy get here now?

The patient, who was quite familiar with Yunyi, asked, "Doctor Chu, who is this?"

Yunyi smiled and introduced him. "Auntie, this is my partner."

Hearing he was Yunyi’s partner, the old woman looked somewhat displeased. She had been planning to introduce her nephew to Doctor Chu, never expecting she already had a partner.
