Chapter 124 Li Family
Unexpectedly, Yu Ming was not attacked, but someone stabbed Cui Jian from behind. Due to the chaotic environment, Cui Jian's beast instinct did not react immediately. The moment the knife entered his body, Cui Jian turned around, and his clothes were cut open. Cui Jian grabbed the attacker's neck with one hand and the serrated steak knife that stabbed him again with the other hand, pressing the attacker's head onto the dinner plate on the table next to him. The lady who owned the dinner plate was so frightened that she turned pale and wanted to scream but couldn't make a sound.

Yu Ming looked back and continued his work. Cui Jian was embarrassed. He didn't bring handcuffs, so he could only grab the attacker's head and hit it a few more times until the attacker lost the strength to resist.

Assistant Li and the security manager came with their men and told everyone not to watch. The security guards handcuffed the attacker with cable ties. The security manager approached Cui Jian and said, "The attacker is a security guard on duty. Today, he is in the underground garage."

Cui Jian took out the attacker’s phone and said, “Unlock it.”

The attacker didn't care and shouted: "Murder, call the police, someone help me call the police."

Cui Jian was helpless about this. After all, he was a law-abiding citizen and it was impossible for him to be forced to confess in front of so many people. Since he was wearing a stab-proof vest and was not actually injured, he could not be sentenced to a few years for attempted murder.

The attacker screamed and struggled wildly, and the two security guards could hardly control him. Assistant Li walked up to the attacker and said, "If you don't cooperate, your whole family will die."

The attacker shuddered. He knew Li Zhu's identity. Looking at the pair of venomous eyes under Li Zhu's glasses, he finally admitted defeat and said, "Someone contacted me. If I stab the other person, I can get 50 million."

Cui Jian pointed his phone at the attacker's face, unlocked it, and found several incoming calls. The phone was still open and there was a bank app. He unlocked it and found that at 10:40, million yuan had been deposited into the account. Based on the time, he locked the number of the incoming call, but it was a prepaid number that was turned off.

The suspect knew that the attacker needed money and had a good understanding of the attacker, so he could accurately lure the attacker with money. While Cui Jian was still analyzing in his mind, Yu Ming had already arrived at the scene and said a few words. The security manager took two bodyguards and walked to the southeast. They were facing Li Liang's driver: Li Si.

Assistant Li whispered in the security manager's ear: "Take him away." The security manager went up and put his arm around Li Si's shoulders. Li Si did not resist and followed the security manager away.

Assistant Li said to an employee beside him: "Call the police and let the police handle this matter." He was referring to the person who attacked Cui Jian.

Cui Jian looked at Yu Ming and asked, "Is it done?"

“Sometimes things are that simple.” Yu Ming said, “But it will take some time to find the mastermind behind Li Si.”

Cui Jian: "It's none of my business. My clothes are torn."

Yu Ming: "I'll make you a set later, so you don't have to wear such shabby clothes every day."

Cui Jian said angrily: "You have never been to Britain, but you have learned the British tricks very well." The headquarters of the investigators' organization is in London.

Yu Ming grinned: "Let's go and take a look."

The next task was not easy. Li Si used silence to deal with Li Zhu and Yu Ming's problems. Even when Li Zhu threatened his family, he just remained silent.

According to Li Liang's special assistant, Li Si was hired directly by Li Liang, who asked the special assistant to handle the entry procedures. He has been working diligently and very disciplined for two years. Li Si's parents have passed away, and his only family is his wife who he has been married to for more than a year.

At first, Yu Ming was worried that the mastermind had kidnapped Li Si's wife to threaten Li Si. Li Zhu sent someone to get the bad news that Li Si was going through the divorce procedures with his wife because of emotional discord. Li Si's wife said that they met through a blind date and got married just because they felt it was right, and there was not much love. The married life was good at first, but six months after the wedding, Li Si began to refuse to pay public grain for various reasons. Later, the two spent less and less time together, and the marriage was in name only.

Although Li Liang is no longer in danger of death, he is still in the ICU. It is unknown why he did not hire Li Si through normal procedures, but directly hired Li Si. As Li Liang's driver, the most basic requirement is to pass the background check. How could Li Liang skip this step?

After Li Liang's special assistant questioned the employees, he got an answer: Mr. Li was recommended by Li Liang's younger sister, Li Qin.

Next, they had to meet with Li Qin, but Cui Jian refused. Yu Ming could always convince Cui Jian, so the two of them temporarily left Li Si behind and went to Li's house with Li Zhu. On the one hand, they asked Li Qin questions, and on the other hand, they reported the progress to Mr. Li.

……

The Li family is also the ancestral home of the Li family, located in a small fishing village 18 kilometers away from Hancheng. The small fishing village was abandoned in the war decades ago. Several brothers of the Li family went to Southeast Asia and became wealthy businessmen there. When the situation in Korea stabilized, they returned to Korea and eventually took root in Hancheng and established the Li Group.

The small fishing village has long been the property of the Li family. As the Li family has a large population, many staff members, and a four-story office building, the small fishing village has become the current Lijia Village. And because it is close to the center of Hancheng City, the Li family likes to live in Lijia Village.

When a child reaches adulthood, he or she can apply to the ancestral hall to rent a piece of land to build a house. Compared with the law, the Li family rules are more binding in Lijia Village.

Lijia Village has supermarkets, gas stations, community police (volunteer police), fire stations, sanatoriums, kindergartens, primary schools and other infrastructure. Among them, Lijia Primary School is particularly famous. It is said that the hardware and software are the best. The biggest feature is that it focuses on cultivating children's learning habits and keeping them passionate about learning. Therefore, many non-Li family members will try to send their children to this primary school.

Most of the children of the rich are either black or white: either a playboy or an elite. In the 40 years since Lijia Primary School opened, the proportion of its graduates who have become elites is much higher than that of the best private aristocratic primary schools in Hancheng.

This is private property. No unauthorized persons are requested to enter.

After passing the sign, Cui Jian and Yu Ming took Li Zhu's car and entered Lijia Village. The village surrounded by seven or eight small hills was very lively. The sidewalks, non-motorized vehicle lanes and motor vehicle lanes were clearly marked. There were no illegally parked vehicles on the roadside, and the road looked neat and clean.

Cui Jian thought of Li Qin. At that time, he spent 4 million to buy what he thought was a pretty good gift and was going to meet Li's parents. Thinking about it now, he was so ridiculous. But Cui Jian still liked the simple Cui Jian, who was brave, sunny, pure, kind, and full of love.

Li Liang and Li Qin lived with their parents, and Li Liang's father accompanied Li Liang in Seoul. Mr. Li had something urgent to do, so he asked Li Liang's mother to be responsible for receiving Yu Ming and Cui Jian.

After hearing what Li Zhu said, Yu Ming asked, "It sounds like the person in charge of the family is Li Liang's mother."

Assistant Li nodded, "That's right. Li Liang's mother is a very capable person. She once challenged the family rules and believed that the capable should be in a position of power, including her daughter-in-law. Li's father felt ashamed and had a quarrel with Li's mother. Li's mother went to work at Lin's Group in anger. Within a few years, Li's mother became the ace lawyer of the legal department of Lin's Group. In the business dispute between Lin and Jumu, she crushed Jumu's legal department. During the Chinese New Year that year, Mr. Li praised Li's mother in front of everyone and gave her a pair of ancestral jade bracelets."

Assistant Li said: "The three heroes of the Li family that everyone talks about are all from the third generation. The most powerful person in the second generation of the Li family is not a member of the Li family, but Li's mother. By the way, don't call her Mrs. Li, call her Lawyer Mo."

Cui Jian asked: "Lawyer Mo? Mo Ling?" Cui Jian once attended a lawyer charity banquet with Han Piaoliang, and met a female lawyer named Mo Ling at the banquet.

Assistant Li: "Yes, Mr. Cui knows Lawyer Mo?"

Damn! Mo Ling is actually Li Qin's mother. At the lawyers' banquet, she obviously knew that he was her daughter's ex-boyfriend. Recalling the brief contact at that time, I once expressed the idea of ​​leaving Hancheng because of persecution, and Mo Ling tactfully persuaded me to stay. Now think about it, Mo Ling's subtext should be: It's okay, I won't bully you anymore.

As soon as he got out of the car, Cui Jian saw Mo Ling, who had a dignified demeanor and a high-ranking, or rather, a condescending aura. This kind of lawyer would win three points when he went into battle. Next to Mo Ling was Li Qin, who was holding her shoulders and smiling.

Yu Ming tilted his head and whispered, "Li Liang is fine. He is still in the ICU because we hope to catch the culprit as soon as possible." Otherwise, the family members would not look so good. Cui Jian also tilted his head and said to Li Zhu, "Don't reveal my real name." After saying that, he stepped forward with his crutches.

After a few pleasantries, Mo Ling invited the two to sit inside, and asked in English as they walked in, "Is Mr. Peter Korean?"

Cui Jian lowered his voice, as if soaked by years of smoking, drinking and tea, and answered: "He is a Korean-American, and the lawyer speaks very good English."

"Thank you."

Several people entered the room and sat down. The servants brought tea. Mo Ling asked the servants to leave first and gestured: "This is the top-quality Tieguanyin sent by a friend. I heard that the investigators like to drink tea. Don't be polite."

Yu Ming held back his laughter and said, "Drink it! Drink one while wearing a mask and show me."

Cui Jian said politely: "Thank you. Yu Ming?"

Yu Ming took out his notebook, looked at Li Qin and said, "Ms. Li, was it you who recommended Mr. Li to Mr. Li Liang?"

Li Qin nodded: "Yes."

Yu Ming: “Why?”

Li Qin lived in the university dormitory. Because she had good conditions in all aspects, good temper and good family background, she had many friends. Among her friends was a girl named Zi Han. Because of Zi Han, Li Qin met Zi Han's cousin Li Si, and Zi Han also met Li Liang.

One day in the dormitory, Li Qin answered the phone and her roommate asked her about it. Li Qin said that Li Liang's driver had a heart attack and almost caused the accident. Li Liang's driver was older and had worked for the Li family for 28 years.

Zi Han said that Li Si was an experienced driver with good driving skills. Li Qin didn't respond at first, but Zi Han, contrary to her usual behavior, begged and pleaded, saying that Li Si was fired for bravely helping a female colleague to fight against the harassment of her boss. She also said that Li Si had good character and good driving skills, and that Li Si's mother was a sickly woman with a lot of monthly expenses.

Li Qin would refuse people, but this was the first time she saw Zi Han begging so persistently. Thinking of the small favors Zi Han had helped her with every day, she contacted Li Liang. Li Liang naturally obeyed Mingzhu and directly asked her to come to work.

Yu Ming asked: "Where is Zi Han now?"

Li Qin replied: "She married my cousin last year and lives in the Li family."

Yu Ming looked at Li Zhu and said, "I want to meet this Zi Han."

Before Li Zhu could answer, Li Qin said, "I'll take you there."

After going out, Cui Jian said: "The scenery of Li's house is beautiful. I'll take a walk around nearby. You guys go ahead." I'm so thirsty.

Li Qin did not suspect anything and walked away with Yu Ming and Li Zhu. Cui Jian nodded to Mo Ling and was about to walk with crutches. Mo Ling reminded him, "Left leg."

Cui Jian looked at the cane in his right hand, then turned to look at Mo Ling, who looked at Cui Jian with a half-smile, and the scene was very awkward. When Cui Jian saw them walking away, he pulled down his mask and said, "Lawyer Mo, long time no see."

Mo Ling nodded, with a complicated expression, and said after a long while: "Long time no see."

Cui Jian said nothing more. He put on his mask and went for a walk with crutches.

The case was solved in an hour.

The story is very melodramatic, and the general content is: Zi Han and Li Si are lovers. Zi Han knew Li Qin's identity early on, and deliberately approached her, trying to become friends with Li Qin before her identity was exposed. His purpose is to use Li Qin's identity and use marriage to achieve class transition.

Li Qin was not scheming and would bring Zi Han with her to every party. With the help of Li Si, Zi Han knew all the important members of the Li family. After a party, Zi Han found an opportunity to sleep with Li Qin's cousin. Although Li Qin's cousin was not a playboy, he was more casual about one-day love. He never expected that Zi Han would get pregnant after just this one time. Zi Han married Li Qin's cousin when she was five months pregnant.

As the boss of Li Si, Li Liang once caught Li Si and Zi Han being intimate. He sternly told them that cousins ​​should not be too close. Afterwards, Li Liang thought more and more that something was wrong. During a meal with his cousin, he tactfully reminded his cousin that the child did not look like his cousin. The cousin was carefree and thought that Li Liang was telling someone else's story, a topic of conversation at the table, so he told Zi Han the story as a joke.

Zi Han and Li Si were very nervous about their second pregnancy. Li Si began to pay attention to Li Liang's every move. Once he overheard a phone call between Li Liang and the doctor. Zi Han had already arranged a hospital for her second child. Li Liang asked his old classmate, who was a doctor at the hospital, to keep a DNA sample of the newborn.

Zi Han felt very upset. She had secretly done a paternity test for the first child, proving that the child was from Li's cousin. But she didn't know who the second child was from. In the past few months, hiring a killer to kill someone has become popular among the wealthy. Instead of passively taking the beating, it is better to take the initiative. So Zi Han and Li Si decided to get rid of the nosy Li Liang. Even if Li Liang was just injured, he didn't have much energy to care about other people's affairs.

Before hiring a killer, Zi Han and Li Si discussed and believed that the police would not be able to obtain evidence of their hiring a killer to kill someone. Yu Ming did not get any evidence. He kept looking for contradictions in Zi Han's words through questioning her, collecting fragments of the truth and piecing together the outline of the story. He then told the story to Zi Han and observed her reaction. As he got closer to the truth, Zi Han's emotions finally could not remain stable.

Yu Ming played his last trump card: Li Si has been arrested, and you, Zi Han, have at least given birth to a child of the Li family. For the sake of the child, the Li family will not go to extremes.

So Zi Han confessed everything, but she insisted that she had behaved herself after marriage and that Li Si was dissatisfied with being abandoned, so he threatened to force herself.

The next matter was handed over to Li Zhu. Yu Ming found Cui Jian who was taking a walk in Lijia Village. After listening to Yu Ming's explanation, Cui Jian said, "These two people have brains, but not much. Since they have already hired someone to kill, they should not drag themselves into the quagmire." Cui Jian believed that Li Si's hiring security guards to attack him was the most failed move.

Yu Ming disagreed: "I went to Li Liang's company specifically, named seven people, and asked the special assistant to notify and put them under house arrest. People will make stupid moves once they feel guilty. Even if Li Si didn't do anything, he was very nervous during lunch and his food tasted like chewing wax. Besides, I haven't talked to him one-on-one yet. As long as he hasn't received strict anti-reconnaissance and anti-interrogation training, I will definitely be able to dig him out."

Cui Jian: "So confident?"

Yu Ming: “That’s how confident I am.”

Cui Jian got answers to several questions. The first question: Why did Yu Ming get the P1 gold medal in a high-profile manner, enter through the main gate, and take the VIP elevator? The purpose was to let everyone spread the gossip. The second question: Why did he ask General Assistant Li Liang to make many demands on the seven suspects? The purpose was to put pressure on them. The third question: Why did he take off his own badge during lunch and ask himself to be listed? That was to die for his brothers rather than for himself.

Yu Ming shared his speculation. Zi Han's deeper thought was to use the killer to kill Li Si and put an end to it all. In fact, if Li Liang hadn't gotten into Cui Jian's car, Zi Han might have gotten what he wanted. However, this had nothing to do with the Li family. As for how the Li family would deal with Li Si and Zi Han, that was not Yu Ming and Cui Jian's business.
