Chasing Wife in Crematorium: Abandoned Young Master

Chapter 207 Protect it?

We must find out the truth and clear ourselves of suspicion. At the same time, we must protect this bronze artifact and not let it fall into the hands of the wrong people."

Qingying also clenched his fists, "Yes, we can't be defeated like this. We must unite and face this challenge together."

So the three of them started their actions. They began to investigate Li Hu's background in depth, looking for possible clues to prove their innocence. At the same time, they also strengthened their contact with Professor Chen, hoping to get more help and information from him.

However, just as they were working hard to find clues, an unexpected news once again disrupted their plans!

"How did they get the photo of this thing?" Rong Yu didn't understand!

The photo he was talking about was, of course, the photo of the bronze ware!

"This is difficult for me to answer. If I knew, I wouldn't be the same as you!" Tong Luoluo said!

"The question now is, how did this photo get out?" Qingying frowned and thought, "We were obviously very careful."

"Could there be a problem with Professor Chen?" Tong Luoluo guessed.

Rong Yu shook his head. "It's unlikely. Professor Chen also studies historical relics. He knows the importance of such things and won't leak them easily."

"Could it be the police station?" Qingying proposed another possibility.

"No," Rong Yu denied. "Although the police suspect us, they don't know the specific information about the bronze artifact. This photo must have been leaked from within our group."

The three of them fell into deep thought, and the atmosphere became a little depressing for a while. They knew that the appearance of this photo meant that their situation became more dangerous.

"We must find out who leaked the photos as soon as possible." Rong Yu broke the silence, "Only in this way can we take the initiative."

"But how do we check it?" Tong Luoluo asked.

"Let's start by investigating the people in our company," Rong Yu decided. "This photo must have been circulated from within the company. We must find the traitor."

So the three began a series of investigations. They started with the company's computers and networks to check if there were any abnormal file transfer records. However, after searching for a while, they did not find any valuable clues.

"It seems that this traitor was very careful and did not leave any traces." Qingying said.

"We can't give up just like that." Rong Yu said firmly, "Since we can't find any clues from the computer or the Internet, let's start with the people. Anyone could be the one who leaked the photos, and we can't let any suspect go."

In the next few days, the three began to secretly observe and investigate everyone in the company. They questioned every employee who might have access to the photos, but found nothing unusual.

Just when they were about to fall into despair, an unexpected clue appeared.

"Take a look at this." Qingying handed a document to Rong Yu and Tong Luoluo, "I found this in the surveillance video in the security room."

Rong Yu and Tong Luoluo took the document with doubts and read it carefully. In the video, a figure quietly entered the company late at night, operated on the computer, and then left in a hurry.

"Who is this person?" Rong Yu asked.

"I have checked." Qingying replied, "He is an intern in our company, his name is Xiao Zhang."

"How could an intern have access to such confidential documents?" Tong Luoluo asked in confusion.

"That's what I find strange," Qingying said. "I've asked his superiors, and they say Xiao Zhang is very hardworking and often works overtime. I think he might have used that time to sneak into our computer system."

"Then why did he do this?" Rong Yu frowned and thought, "An intern shouldn't be so brave, right?"

"Perhaps, there is someone behind him." Qingying guessed, "We don't have time to delve into this now. The most urgent task is to find Xiao Zhang and find out who is behind him."

So the three of them immediately took action. They first found Xiao Zhang's contact information and home address through the company's internal system. Then, they decided to act separately, contacting Xiao Zhang while going to his home to look for clues.

However, when Rong Yu and Tong Luoluo arrived at Xiao Zhang's home, they found that he had disappeared. The room was in a mess, and it was obvious that someone had ransacked it.

"It seems that someone found Xiao Zhang before us." Rong Yu said with a frown.

"So what should we do now?" Tong Luoluo asked.

"Let's contact Qingying first and see if there's any progress on her side." Rong Yu decided.

However, when they contacted Qingying, they learned even worse news - Xiao Zhang was dead!

"How could this happen?" Rong Yu asked in disbelief, "Who killed him?"

"We don't know yet." Qingying replied, "The police are investigating. However, I found some clues in Xiao Zhang's room that may be related to our case."

"What clues?" Rong Yu asked hurriedly.

"Some photos and documents," Qingying said, "including the leaked bronze photo. In addition, I found some phone numbers and email addresses for contacting Xiao Zhang. I think these may have been left by the person behind him."

"Then let's go over and take a look now." Rong Yu said.

So the three of them immediately went to Xiao Zhang's residence. There, they saw the clues found by Qingying. After some careful inspection and analysis, they found an unfamiliar phone number and an email address.

"Whose could these be?" Tong Luoluo asked doubtfully.

"We can't be sure yet," Rong Yu said, "but these clues may be the key to our finding out the truth. We need to find out who the owners of these phone numbers and email addresses are as soon as possible."

In the next few days, the three began to conduct an in-depth investigation of these clues. They first found a person named "Mr. Wang" through the phone number. However, when they tried to contact this person, they found that the phone number had been shut down.

"It seems that this Mr. Wang is probably a pseudonym." Qingying said, "We need to start with the email address."

So they started investigating this email address. After some effort, they finally found some valuable clues. This email address had been frequently connected with an overseas account.

"Whose overseas account is this?" Rong Yu asked.

“We are still investigating,” Qingying replied, “but judging from the current situation, the owner of this overseas account is likely the one who leaked the photos and instructed Xiao Zhang.”

The three of them fell into deep thought. They knew that they were getting closer and closer to the truth. As long as they could find the owner of this overseas account, they would be able to uncover all the mysteries.

However, just when they were about to touch the truth, an unexpected news broke their plan again. The police suddenly contacted them, saying that there was a new development in the Li Hu case and they needed their assistance in the investigation.

"What should we do now?" Tong Luoluo looked at Rong Yu and asked.

"Let's go to the police station first to see what's going on," Rong Yu decided. "Perhaps the police have found new clues."

"We can't tell anyone now. We have concealed the truth during their previous investigations. If we tell it now, it seems that we might be suspected of being involved!" Rong Yu said!

He is very opposed to making this matter bigger!

"Then what do you think we should do?" Tong Luoluo asked!

"Professor Chen, he is our shield. Even if we want to expose the matter, we have to pin it on him!" Rong Yu said!

"Will this be a bad thing?" Tong Luoluo asked!

"What's wrong with that? We are doing this to protect ourselves." Rong Yu frowned, his voice revealing an unquestionable determination, "Lolo, you know, if we are involved now, then everything will be over. We must find a scapegoat, and Professor Chen is the most suitable candidate."

Qingying remained silent, obviously weighing the pros and cons. She knew that what Rong Yu said made sense, but she always felt an indescribable sense of guilt in her heart.

"But how can we convince the police that it was Professor Chen who did it?" Tong Luoluo raised a key question.

Rong Yu took a deep breath, his eyes became firm, "We need to create some evidence and let the police investigate themselves. At the same time, we must also act carefully and not leave any loopholes."

As night fell, the three of them conspired in Rong Yu's study to plan their next move. Under the dim light, their figures looked particularly solemn.

"We can start with Professor Chen's computer." Qingying suddenly spoke, her voice was particularly clear in the quiet study, "If we can find some files related to the leaked photos in his computer, the police will naturally suspect him."

Rong Yu nodded in agreement. "That's a good idea. But how can we access his computer?"

"You don't have to worry about this." Tong Luoluo smiled mysteriously, "I have my own way."

A few days later, one night, Tong Luoluo sneaked into Professor Chen's office under the pretext of visiting him. Wearing black gloves, she carefully opened Professor Chen's computer.

After some searching, she finally found a hidden folder, which contained the leaked bronze ware photo. Tong Luoluo was delighted and quickly copied the folder to her USB drive.

However, just as she was about to leave, the office door was suddenly pushed open. Professor Chen stood at the door with a look of astonishment on his face, obviously not expecting that someone would be in his office.

"Lolo? What are you doing here?" Professor Chen's tone was full of confusion.

Tong Luoluo's heart tightened, but she quickly calmed down, "Professor Chen, I came to see you for something, and since you were not in the office, I took a look at your computer."

Professor Chen frowned, seemingly not believing her explanation. But at this moment, Rong Yu and Qing Ying also arrived at the scene. When they saw Professor Chen, they immediately showed a look of surprise.

"Professor Chen, why are you here? We thought you were not at home." Rong Yu smiled and tried to smooth things over. "Luo Luo said he wanted to discuss his research on bronze artifacts with you. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Professor Chen looked at the three of them, with a hint of doubt in his eyes. But he didn't say much, just nodded, "In that case, let's discuss it together."

Back at Rong Yu's home, the four of them sat in the study. Rong Yu and Qing Ying exchanged glances secretly, and then began their plan.

"Professor Chen, we have recently discovered some new clues about bronze artifacts." Rong Yu deliberately led the topic to the leaked photo. "You should have seen this photo, right?"

Professor Chen glanced at the photo and nodded. "This is a bronze artifact I studied before. What's wrong with it?"

"This photo has been leaked." Rong Yu continued, "And we also found some strange clues that seem to be related to you."

Professor Chen's expression immediately turned ugly. "What do you mean? Do you suspect that I leaked the photos?"

"That's not what we meant." Qingying explained quickly, "We just found some clues related to your computer, so we wanted to ask if you know anything."

Professor Chen was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "I really don't know how this photo was leaked. But if you find any clues in my computer, it is very likely that someone deliberately framed me."

Hearing this, Rong Yu and Qing Ying looked at each other. They didn't expect Professor Chen to respond to their questions so calmly. However, they did not give up, but continued to ask questions.

After a heated discussion and defense, Professor Chen always insisted on his innocence.

Rong Yu and Qing Ying also began to realize that perhaps they really misunderstood him.

At this moment, Tong Luoluo suddenly remembered something, "Wait, I remembered someone.

That intern, Xiao Zhang, once secretly viewed this photo on my computer. Could it be that he leaked it? "
