Chapter 292: The Truth is Like an Onion (First Update)

Lanting Xuan frowned and said, "Do you think the person who shot and killed the fake Wang Jiancai is Mason Consortium? Why not Newport Consortium?"
"The Newport Consortium collaborating with fake Wang Jiancai is money laundering, whether they kill Wang Jiancai or not, the result is the same for them. Now the Mason Consortium promises to compensate for their losses, and should also provide money laundering for them in the future, so the Newport Consortium doesn't necessarily have the motivation to kill fake Wang Jiancai." Wei Dongyan analyzed carefully.
"You conclude that it is the Mason Consortium? Could it be someone else?"
"...That possibility cannot be excluded."
The two of them discussed for a long time, but due to the limited information, they could not come to any important conclusion.
Weidong Yan said, "It's late, go rest and we'll talk tomorrow."
Lanting Xuan nodded, "Goodnight."
She turned around and left, neat and decisive, without any hesitation.
Weidongyan smiled and then laughed at himself.
What is he thinking?
Is he still expecting a goodnight kiss?
……
Both Weidongyan and Lantingxuan slept soundly that night.
Because they were too nervous and tired, their bodies were extremely fatigued.
The next morning, Lan Tingxuan woke up promptly at 6 o'clock and decided to go to the gym first.
The gym is on the other side of her room, and she has to pass through the living room in between.
As Lan Tingxuan passed through the living room, she noticed Wei Dongyan sitting there, looking at his phone.
    Lan Ting Xuandan asked calmly, "Good morning, Director Wei."
    Wei Dongyan looked up and said calmly, "Li Qiaodan, the complete video left by fake Wang Jiancai has been found. Do you want to watch it?"

"Of course!" Lanting Xuan arched an eyebrow, "On your phone?"
"I can cast it to the TV." Wei Dongyan said, opening the TV and casting the video from his phone onto the TV screen.
The living room has a huge ninety-eight inch television.
For an average family, such a television is too big and looks very mismatched.
But in Abidong's spacious living room, it is just the right size, like a movie theater screening room, to accommodate this ninety-eight-inch television.
Lanting Xuan sat down on the sofa and watched the video attentively.
At the beginning of the video, it was a tea room, with gloomy weather outside and an old man sitting in the tea room.
This old man is the late Mei Sihai.
The French windows are wide open, with only a bamboo curtain hanging down. In the courtyard, Cyclamens are blooming in bright colors.
Mei Sihai picked up a black marker from the tea table and quickly wrote a line of words in a yellow sticky note pad.
The result doesn't know what is on the pen shaft, it feels a bit sticky when touched by fingers.
He casually pressed it on a sticky note, leaving a clear fingerprint.
Mei Sihai tore off this sticky note and handed it behind, saying, "Forget it, let's just leave it like this. Take a look, after reading it, burn this note. This is Shen Ancheng's personal email account, no one else knows it, you find someone to apply for another private encrypted cryptocurrency trading account for Shen Ancheng."
A well-dressed and refined gentleman enters the video frame, respectfully taking the yellow sticky note and glancing at it. He says, "Father-in-law, how can you be sure that nobody else knows about this email account of Shen Ancheng?"
This well-dressed and refined man is obviously Wang Jiancai, the fake Wang Jiancai.
Because of the humble and restrained expression on his face, he looks exactly like the fake Wang Jiancai who was just shot dead.
Mei Sihai chuckled, "The other person who knew this email account, died three months ago. Otherwise, how could it be you standing here? Right?"
The smile on his face was both proud and meaningful, filled with disdain and contempt.
And at this moment, the camera zooms in to reveal the contents written on that yellow sticky note.
The contents written on that yellow sticky note are identical to what they obtained from Ruan Xinggui's wife, Yang Songyun.
There are several sentences written in black marker on top.
"Use Shen Ancheng's personal email,sacstx0717@xxx.to apply for a personal encrypted cryptocurrency trading account for him."
The video ends here.
Lan Tingxuan widened her eyes in surprise, "So the yellow sticky note that Ruan Xinggui used for self-defense was given to him by this fake Wang Jiancai!"
Wei Dongyan agreed, "That's probably the case. This is also one of the suspicious points in Ruan Xinggui's case. There was no conclusion even until Mei Sihai was killed. How did Ruan Xinggui get this sticky note? None of us believe that Mei Sihai would be foolish enough to willingly hand over such important evidence to Ruan Xinggui."
"Yes, and it also gave Ruan Xinggui a handle to threaten Mei Sihai, the glory of Merit Venture Capital for eight years," Lan Tingxuan sighed, "I bet Ruan Xinggui doesn't even know who gave him this note, the fake Wang Jiancai certainly didn't reveal himself, he did it secretly."
"Well, I agree. At that time, Mei Sihai originally wanted to write a note to someone, or maybe it was a fake Wang Jiancai who asked him to write it. But looking at the video, Mei Sihai changed his mind after finishing writing, he didn't want to leave any handle, so he only showed the note to the fake Wang Jiancai and let him find someone to open an account for your biological father, Shen Ancheng." Wei Dongyan paused the video on his phone, and the TV screen froze on that yellow sticky note.
Lanting Xuan was thinking more deeply. She recalled the situation of Mei Sihai at that time and said thoughtfully: "I remember Mei Sihai being hospitalized again, and it seems that Chu showed him the fingerprints on this yellow sticky note."
"Mei Sihai was so angry that he had another stroke, and he never regained consciousness again until he was killed by Qiao Ya's grandfather."
Wei Dongyan suddenly understood, "So he was so furious not because his conspiracy was exposed, but because he discovered that the person who betrayed him was someone close to him, someone who had always been obedient and respectful as a good son-in-law."
"That's right!" Lan Tingxuan almost applauded Wei Dongyan. "It must be like this. At that time, Mei Jinhuan even used it to create public opinion, saying that the police used torture to extract confessions..."
Lan Tingxuan still remembers the wave after wave of trending topics related to the Mei family. Now it seems that some were her fueling the fire, and others were probably Wang Jiancai secretly fueling the fire.
Weidong stretched out his long legs, crossed his hands behind his head, and looked up, saying, "Wang Jiancai had been scheming against Mei Sihai eight years ago. It can't be said that he is an incapable person."
"His abilities weren't used for the right path. Compared to the real Wang Jiancai..." Lan Tingxuan looked down upon the fake Wang Jiancai and disdainfully pursed her lips.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something and froze in an instant.
Half of the words were on the tip of her tongue, her expression seemed both absent-minded and surprised, and there was an indescribable sense of relief and relaxation.
Weidong Yan stared at her, "What's wrong? Did you find something?"
Lanting Xuan's gaze turned towards Weidong Yan. Her expression was strange, as if she was looking at him, yet it seemed as if she was looking through him, towards the end of time.
Lanting Xuan said, "Do you remember how Meisihai talked about this fake Wang Jiancai in the video just now?"
Wei Dongyan thought for a moment and also sat up straight. He said coldly, "Mei Sihai said, 'The other person who knew this email account died three months ago. Otherwise, why would it be you standing here?'"
As he spoke, he pressed play again on his phone and rewound the progress bar back to the moment when Mei Sihai said this sentence.
Sure enough, on the TV, Mei Sihai wore a look of both triumph and disdain.
He said, "The other person who knew this email account died three months ago. Otherwise, how could you be standing here? Right?"
Lan Ting anxiously said, "Does this video have a timestamp?!"
Weidong Yan searched and found the video time.
It was exactly one month before Shen Ancheng's death.
Lanting Xuan clapped her hands gently and her voice was slightly excited: "I know! The real Wang Jiancai, that is, the mole, was killed before my biological father entered Merit Venture Capital, about nine years ago, a few months earlier than my biological father's death. Maybe at that time, for some unknown reason, that Mason Consortium had already targeted my biological father and made Wang Jiancai kill him. The real Wang Jiancai didn't agree and would rather be tortured and killed than implicate my biological father."
"After killing the real Wang Jiancai, the Mason Consortium did not stop and found an orphan they sponsored, or rather, a puppet, who underwent plastic surgery to look like the real Wang Jiancai."
"Do you remember that Fake Wang Jiancai always said that during the three months when my biological father worked at Meilite Venture Capital, he was actually not in the country but studying abroad, so he had nothing to do with my biological father's death? Now it seems, what did he study? Clearly, he had plastic surgery and spent his recovery period abroad!"
"So, Fake Wang Jiancai only returned from abroad after my biological father died. That way, no one knew he was a fake... Oh, wait, Mei Sihai knew he was a fake!"
Wei Dong nodded: "Makes sense. But, the fake Wang Jiancai may not have returned to the country only after your biological father's death. He didn't show up at the company, but he may have been staying at the Mei family the whole time. We need to check the customs records from nine years ago to see when the fake Wang Jiancai actually returned to the country."
Lan Tingxuan widened her eyes and said, "So you're saying there's another person! We've been overlooking this person all along!"
“Who?”
"Mei Jinhuan! She is the wife of the real Wang Jiancai, and also the wife of the fake Wang Jiancai!" Lan Tingxuan was truly excited now. She stood up and paced around in Wei Dongyan's living room, quickly thinking in her head, "Mei Jinhuan has been married to the real Wang Jiancai for over ten years and even gave birth to a daughter. Do you think she wouldn't know that the person beside her in bed later on was a fake?!"
Wei Dong's expression suddenly changed: "Oh no! She may be running away, maybe she has already run away... The one who shot the fake Wang Jiancai on the gambling ship in international waters could also be Mei Jinhuan! Or she sent the assassins!"
Wei Dongyan immediately picked up his phone, found a number, and sent a few messages over.
Lanting Xuan became nervous: "Do you think she wants to leave the country?"
"You analyzed it well just now. I think the truth is roughly like that. As for what identity Mei Jinhuan really has here, we will be able to find out soon." Wei Dongyan's eyes were deep and he looked into the distance.
He thought that if Mei Jinhuan didn't run, their difficulty might be even greater.
If she runs abroad, haha, there is nothing that can restrict them and their group from accomplishing their mission...
