Chapter 203 Cooperation

"Name."

"...Xin Youquan."

"Age."

"43."

"Occupation."

"Chief physician of Shuangye Hospital."

"When did you start removing their organs?"

In the dim and cramped factory warehouse, Xin Youquan lowered his head and said nothing.

On the small table in front of Wen Shilin, a fountain pen was automatically writing the content of the conversation between the two on a notebook, and as Xin Youquan fell silent, the pen tip also stopped moving.

Wen Shilin frowned slightly, "Xin Youquan, at this time, do you still think you can keep the things you did secret?"

Xin Youquan's hands and feet were tied up, curled up in the corner of the warehouse, still no intention of answering.

"...Or are you worried that you will be retaliated by the Star Chamber of Commerce after you speak out?"

As Wen Shilin's next words came out, Xin Youquan's body shook slightly, and he looked at Wen Shilin in surprise, "You know?"

"As early as two years ago, I found that the Star Chamber of Commerce had traces of suspected organ trading in the seven major districts, but at that time, the information inside and outside the city was not exchanged, and all the clues were broken. Even I couldn't find their evidence completely... But this time is different."

Wen Shilin spoke slowly, "This time, you dared to take action in Aurora City... You left too many traces, and you want to get away safely? It's impossible."

"Even so, I have nothing to tell you."

"Do you think that as long as you keep the secret, the Star Chamber of Commerce will protect you? Do you know that if I hadn't tied you here, you would have been silenced by the Star Chamber of Commerce now." Wen Shilin's voice was extremely calm.

"What?!" Xin Youquan was stunned, "No, this is impossible..."

"Impossible? You should know what kind of greedy people in the Star Chamber of Commerce are. You have worked with them before. If everything is calm, it's fine. Once they realize the risk, will they still keep you?"

Xin Youquan seemed to have thought of something, and his face was as pale as paper.

"Even if you don't say it, it doesn't matter. When I interrogated... no, when I interviewed Qiu Dong just now, he told me everything he knew." Wen Shilin put the automatic writing pen aside and casually turned a page of notes forward. It was full of dense conversations.

"As the first person to cooperate with the investigation, I will comply with his request and hide his name when the matter is made public to prevent his friends and family from knowing. At the same time, I will explain the situation to the law enforcement system, which should be able to reduce his sentence..."

"No, Qiu Dong was brought in by me. He was just responsible for the operation!" Xin Youquan said immediately, "I have always been in contact with the Qunxing Chamber of Commerce! I know much more than him!"

"Oh?" Wen Shilin raised his eyebrows and put the pen back on the notebook.

"It seems that Mr. Xin is willing to cooperate?"

Xin Youquan's eyes flashed with a hint of entanglement, and finally he spoke:

"What do you want to know?"

...

When Wen Shilin finished interviewing the last person, it was already dawn.

He sat alone at the door of the factory with a thick notebook, rubbing his temples with his fingertips, looking exhausted.

"Collecting materials outside the city, distributing in the city, White Swan Charity Foundation... This young master Yan Xishou has dragged the entire Aurora City business community into the water... There are even several executives in the law enforcement system."

"This is trouble..."

Wen Shilin knew very well that a Qunxing Chamber of Commerce might not be scary, but the other chains related to its interests were scary. Although he now had the news, these were just confessions after all. It was almost impossible to overturn everything with these...

He needed more intuitive and convincing evidence, but this evidence would inevitably be completely hidden by the Qunxing Chamber of Commerce. It was almost impossible to find it by himself.

Just knowing the inside story, but not being able to prove it, this feeling of powerlessness was too familiar to Wen Shilin. When he was investigating other things in the past few years, he had encountered this situation many times. Knowing that there was a bigger conspiracy behind it, he could not continue, and even wanted to write an article that exposed everything but could not be published smoothly... His enemies never left him any loopholes.

Wen Shilin didn't know how to explain to Chen Ling. Maybe he shouldn't have boasted from the beginning.

"Where's Lin Yan?" Wen Shilin seemed to remember something and looked outside the factory in confusion.

Just now, he was completely immersed in the in-depth interview and completely forgot about Chen Ling's going to get the camera. Now he suddenly remembered that Chen Ling had been gone all night and hadn't returned...

Wen Shilin was a man who had experienced many ups and downs. He immediately realized that something was wrong. He sat up from the floor of the factory and was about to leave. He took half a step and then retreated.

He first took off his coat, took off the cotton coat from Xin Youquan, and put on another person's scarf to cover half of his face. After confirming that it was difficult to recognize his identity from a distance, he hurriedly walked towards his home.

The cold wind at dawn brushed across Wen Shilin's cheek, temporarily suppressing the fatigue of the night. At this moment, his heart was already in his throat. While vigilantly observing the surroundings, he prayed that Chen Ling would be fine.

Finally, a familiar residential building appeared at the end of the road.

Wen Shilin glanced around and saw that the fourth floor where his home was located was surrounded by a group of nearby residents and neighbors, and even a few law enforcement officers in uniform. His heart skipped a beat.

"It's broken."

Wen Shilin walked quickly to the door of his house and saw a group of people pointing and talking at the floor of the corridor. A huge pit full of cracks almost smashed through the entire floor. It didn't look like it was something that human power could do.

The people around were very shocked and seemed to not understand how this happened. On the other hand, the law enforcement officer on the side was a little too calm. He perfunctorily registered two entries and waved his hand:

"It's just that the weather is too cold, which caused the floor to crack... It's all gone, it's all gone, there's nothing to see."

As the crowd was driven away by them, Wen Shilin did not continue to move forward, but lowered his head and mixed in the crowd, gradually moving away from here.

He knew that something must have happened here last night, and judging from the reactions of these law enforcers, it was most likely related to the Star Chamber of Commerce... Chen Ling's disappearance was also related to this matter.

The Star Chamber of Commerce actually used the Shinto owners to attack them?

This thought made Wen Shilin uneasy. Although he had been hunted down and assassinated many times in the past few years, most of the people who attacked him were ordinary people... After all, in Aurora City, all local Shinto owners will be promoted to law enforcers and be restricted by the law enforcement system. Even foreigners will be strictly supervised. This time, the Star Chamber of Commerce sent foreigners, and it seemed that they were determined to get rid of him.

Wen Shilin knew that his situation was very dangerous, but he was more worried about Chen Ling... Chen Ling was completely involved by himself!

The law enforcers were full of people from the Star Chamber of Commerce. Calling the police would definitely not work, but apart from this way, who else could he ask for help to save Chen Ling?

Wen Shilin's mind flashed through names one by one anxiously, and finally, a name suddenly jumped out.

Divine doctor, Chu Muyun.
