Chapter 599 The Little Singer is Free and Easy (Part 44)
In fact, the suspected target is not that difficult to confirm. After all, Hua Zhuo is still squatting in the police station. Once we check his interactions with Chu Tingli, we can understand that the people who can instruct Hua Zhuo to attack Chu Tingli are most likely Jiang Junxi and Qin Yuanyuan, Hua Zhuo's artists.
However, Hua Zhuo had always refused to cooperate and insisted that what he had given to Li Zong was just ordinary medicine powder. He just wanted to make Chu Tingli have an allergic reaction and develop a drug rash that would affect her appearance during the performance and make her look bad. He definitely did not use any other banned drugs.
When the police questioned him about his involvement in bribing online influencers to discredit Chu Tingli, Hua Zhuo was deeply upset. He hadn't expected the police to uncover the truth so quickly. He was even more worried that if his arrest, bribery of online influencers, and drugging were exposed online, he would be cursed to death by netizens, Jiang Junxi, and Qin Yuanyuan. Hua Zhuo was a little worried that Qin Yuanyuan would ignore him, but he also felt that Qin Yuanyuan couldn't ignore him, given their mutual interests. As long as he didn't betray Qin Yuanyuan, he would be able to gain her help.
The police interrogated the mastermind behind the scenes, but Hua Zhuo insisted that no one instructed him. He was just worried that Chu Tingli would use Jiang Junxi's status as an actor to gain popularity online. For the sake of his own future as an artist, he wanted to take action and ruin Chu Tingli's reputation.
But just because Hua Zhuo refused to admit that he was the one who gave Chu Tingli the medicine that almost killed her, the blame could not be put on Li Zong.
The police initially arrested Hua Zhuo because of Li Zong's confession and the residual medicine powder in his hand. Although Hua Zhuo denied that he had given only ordinary medicine, when the police said that Hua Zhuo's fingerprints were found on the medicine powder bag confiscated from Li Zong, Hua Zhuo subconsciously said: "Impossible, I was wearing gloves." This sentence indirectly proved that the medicine was given to Li Zong by Hua Zhuo.
More importantly, the police wanted to uncover the drug trafficking organization through Hua Zhuo, so they kept a close watch on Qin Yuanyuan, Jiang Junxi, and others. Qin Yuanyuan wasn't stupid either; the accounts she transferred the money to weren't in her own name. She used an anonymous overseas account, so when the police checked Hua Zhuo's transaction records, they couldn't trace it back to Qin Yuanyuan.
After Qin Yuanyuan discovered that Hua Zhuo was arrested, she really couldn't ignore him. She took the lead in contacting the Qin Group's legal team, hoping to get Hua Zhuo out.
But rescuing someone wasn't easy. Hua Zhuo was suspected of instructing Li Zong to illegally administer drugs to murder Chu Tingli. With evidence and witnesses, it was impossible for him to be released just because a lawyer showed up.
It has been 24 hours since Hua Zhuo was taken to the detention center. Qin Yuanyuan failed to get Hua Zhuo out of the detention center. She has not received any news of Chu Tingli's death. Instead, the killer has lost contact.
Qin Yuanyuan knew very well that if the killer had successfully killed Chu Tingli, he would definitely have asked her for the remaining payment of 15 million.
Something must have gone wrong, so she took the initiative to call the killer, but no one answered the phone this time.
She probably didn't realize the seriousness of the problem, nor did she think that the police had already set their sights on her and checked Qin Yuanyuan's network in order to find out the killer's organization and the source of the drugs. So she didn't give Qin Yu a heads-up. When Qin Yu called to tell her that her classmate was taken away by the police, Qin Yuanyuan was still puzzled. What did Qin Yu's college classmate being taken away have to do with her, Qin Yuanyuan?
"If your classmate was arrested, she was arrested. If she didn't commit any crime, she'll be released soon."
"Sister, my classmate is Wan Ya! Have you forgotten? Your agent Hua Zhuo bought the drugs from Wan Ya. Wan Ya's brother is in that organization, and Wan Ya is the middleman. Although Hua Zhuo bought the drugs in his personal name and did not mention you, there is no need to worry about Wan Ya giving you away. But now she has been arrested. It must be that idiot Hua Zhuo who confessed. He wants to kill me! Wan Ya's brother will not let me go! Her brother is very fierce. I don't want to be in vain! Sister, please send someone to protect me! Save me!"
"Got it. I'll have two bodyguards send you over. Don't say anything you shouldn't. You know the consequences." Qin Yu quickly said, "Yes, sister, don't worry. I won't say anything."
