Chapter 1697: Catching a big fish (first update, please subscribe)
Sunshine, beach, coconut forest...
All this, which I have always been accustomed to, looks so charming.
Lin Caihan stood by the sea, the fine sand under his feet was soft and warm, as if he was gently massaged the soles of his feet.
The breeze blew across his face, with the smell of salty sea water.
The gentle sea breeze brings bursts of laughter from the family.
His eyes never left his wife and children. My wife smiled so brightly, as if she had never experienced the torture of illness.
Her laughter and the children's playful sounds intertwined, like a warm song, echoing in his ears. The sun shines on her face, reflecting her rosy cheeks, which is a healthy color, the picture he once dreamed of.
He walked to his wife and gently held her hand. Her hands were warm and soft, and he could even feel the vitality conveyed from his palms. "How do you feel today?" Lin Caihan asked softly, his eyes full of concern.
The wife turned her head and looked at her husband with a smile: "Very good, it's never been so good. The sunshine, the sea breeze, and you and the children around me, I feel like I've lived again." Lin Caihan's heart trembled slightly, but he tried to make his smile look natural. "That's good. Seeing you so happy, I think everything is worth it."
My wife leaned gently on his shoulder and her eyes turned to the sea level in the distance.
"Caihan, do you know? Sometimes I think that if I hadn't been you, I might have been unable to hold on. You have always been by my side and gave me so much strength."
Lin Caihan's throat tightened a little, and he took a deep breath, trying to stabilize his voice. "Stop talking about this, you are healthy now. We are together, and this is the most important thing."
The wife nodded, and a trace of tenderness flashed in her eyes. "Yes, our family is better than anything else. The children had such a happy day today. Look at them, they smiled so brightly."
Lin Caihan followed her gaze and the children were chasing and playing on the beach, and the laughter was crisp and pleasant. A warm current surged in his heart, but at the same time there was a hint of bitterness.
All this comes at a price, maybe there will be no price now, but one day we will definitely pay for all this. "Caihan, what's wrong with you?"
The wife seemed to notice his strangeness and looked up at him.
Lin Caihan forced a smile and said:
"It's nothing, I just feel a little tired. I've had a lot of work recently."
The wife patted the back of his hand gently and said, "Don't work too hard, health is important. Both the children and I need you."
Lin Caihan nodded, but his heart became heavier. He knew that maybe soon, he would leave them, maybe for a long time. But he didn't want his wife to worry, so he pretended to be relaxed and said: "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself. You are the most important thing for me."
The wife smiled and leaned back on his shoulder.
"Let's go on a trip after a while. Take the children with you as before, and relax with a quiet place."
Lin Caihan felt a little sad, but he nodded and said, "Okay, we'll go after we finish this time."
The two sat quietly on the beach, enjoying this moment of tranquility. The sea breeze blows gently, with a salty and wet breath, and everything shows the beauty and impermanence of life.
"Caihan," his wife suddenly said softly, "Thank you for being by my side all the time." Lin Caihan's eyes were a little wet, but he suppressed his emotions and gently kissed her forehead. "Stop talking about this, we are a family, we will always be."
The wife didn't say anything anymore, but just held his hand tightly. Lin Caihan knew that all this was exactly what he longed for.
As his wife walked towards the children, Lin Caihan smiled, his wife's health and children's happiness.
Isn't this exactly what he dreamed of?
At this moment, the two people walked over. They were out of place in their clothes with the surrounding environment. Because they were wearing formal clothes, who would wear such clothes on the beach?
The moment he saw them, Lin Caihan's heart sank suddenly, but he was not surprised. He had long expected this day to come.
But the speed came was a little faster than he imagined.
"Mr. Lin, we are from the Civil Servant Crime Investigation Bureau. Now please cooperate with our investigation."
The investigator led by the head showed his ID, his tone was calm but unquestionable. "I know why you came." Lin Caihan took a deep breath and nodded. He glanced at his wife and children, and a feeling of sorrow surged in his heart. He knew he was about to leave them, and for a long time.
It's so fast, but fortunately my wife has recovered from health.
"I will cooperate with your investigation," he whispered: "But please give me some time to say goodbye to my wife and children." The investigators looked at each other and finally nodded. They had already learned about the situation before coming.
Lin Caihan turned to his wife, trying to make his expression look calm.
"I have something to deal with, maybe I have to leave for a while. You play with the children first, don't worry."
The wife was a little confused, but she nodded, with a trace of uneasiness flashing in her eyes.
"Caihan, what happened? Where are you going?"
Lin Caihan hugged her gently and whispered:
"Don't worry, I will come back as soon as possible. You and the children live a good life and wait for me."
The wife held his hand tightly, her eyes full of worry. "Caihan, you must be careful and come back early."
Lin Caihan nodded, suppressed the reluctance in his heart, and turned around and walked towards the investigator.
In the car, Lin Caihan remained silent. He knew that the next investigation would uncover everything. But he was ready. He didn't want to escape or hide it anymore.
At the Bureau of Investigation, Lin Caihan performed very well. He truthfully answered all the investigator's questions, from his wife's condition to the transaction of black market organs, to the process of applying for a visa for the other party, and explained them clearly one by one. He did not try to defend himself, nor did he shirk responsibility.
"I know my behavior has violated the law, and I am willing to pay the price for my behavior. But... I must save my wife."
The investigators looked complicated after listening to his confession. They obviously felt sympathy for what happened to him, but no one could be exceptional before the law. "Lin Caihan, we understand your situation, but your acceptance of bribes has violated the law. Considering that you cooperate with the investigation, we will plead with the judge, but the final result will still be handled in accordance with the law." An investigator said.
Lin Caihan nodded silently. He knew he would face legal sanctions, but he did not regret it. For the sake of his wife's life, he is willing to bear all the consequences.
However, when he thought of his wife and children, his heart was still full of reluctance.
Although he was reluctant to leave, he also understood that people always need to pay the price for their actions.

At the same time, in another interrogation room, the atmosphere inside the interrogation room was solemn and depressing. Zhu Hongjie, the owner of Wang Crown Football Club, sat on a chair, crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking calm. His lawyer sat aside, staring at the investigator opposite him, with a hint of impatient tone. "My client has made it clear that he has no questions to answer."
The lawyer said coldly, "If there is no conclusive evidence, you have the right to detain him for 48 hours. Once the time comes, we will leave immediately." The investigator frowned, and he flipped through the folder in his hand and asked again: "Mr. Zhu, we hope you can answer the question of Bailey's work visa truthfully. Is there any illegal transaction during the time you apply for this visa at your club?" Zhu Hongjie still said nothing, but just raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at the investigator coldly, then lowered his head, as if he didn't care about all this.
Seeing this, the lawyer immediately added: "My clients have the right to remain silent. If you have no evidence, please do not waste each other's time." The investigator took a deep breath and was about to continue to put pressure when the door of the interrogation room was suddenly pushed open. Another investigator walked in, holding a document in his hand, walked straight to the table and placed the document on it.
"Mr. Zhu, you can choose to be silent. This is your power."
The new investigator's tone was calm, but his face was filled with a contemptuous sneer:
"But Lin Caihan from the Immigration Bureau has confessed everything. He explained in detail the transaction between you, including how you apply for Bailey's work visa through him, and the exchange of interests between you."
Zhu Hongjie's face changed slightly, but he quickly returned to peace. He raised his head, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, but he still didn't speak.
Investigator continued: "We will invite everyone involved in this matter to come and have a 'coffee'. Even without your confession, we have enough evidence to bring you to court. You choose to cooperate now, and maybe you can still get some opportunities for yourself. Otherwise, you can wash your butt and sit down."
The other party's words were very vulgar, but Zhu Hongjie's brows frowned slightly, and it was obvious that these words hit him weak.
He knew very well what he had done and didn't want to sit in prison.
After weighing the matter in his heart, he lowered his head and whispered a few words to the lawyer. The lawyer nodded and then turned to the investigator, his tone relaxing a little. "My client is willing to cooperate with your investigation and provide very valuable clues." The lawyer said,
"But he hopes to be a witness on the prosecution in exchange for immunity."
The investigator nodded, showing a satisfied smile.
"If Mr. Zhu is willing to cooperate and the information provided is indeed valuable, we will consider his request."
Zhu Hongjie finally spoke, his voice low and calm:
"I can tell you something, maybe it has nothing to do with this matter, but he involves big people, real big people, so I need you to protect my safety."
A real big shot?
Investigators looked at each other and nodded, "We will ensure you are safe. Now, please start."
Zhu Hongjie took a deep breath and said slowly:
"Belle's work visa is indeed processed through Lin Caihan, but it is just a small matter. It can be said that it is not worth mentioning.
You all know this very well, of course I will definitely pay the price, and I know this, but I have more important clues to provide to you.
I can prove a big man I need to say next, but what I need is more than immunity, because compared to his status, immunity is simply a joke.
You must keep my family and me safe.
After all, he is a big shot who can enter and exit the official residence. ”
The investigator's expression became serious and looked at him and asked: "Who is this big man?" Zhu Hongjie was silent for a moment, then slowly spit out a name.
The atmosphere in the interrogation room instantly solidified, and the investigators' faces became solemn. Obviously, the weight of this name is far beyond their expectations. "I need the exemption signed by the judge. After I get the exemption, I will confess some of the transactions between me and him one by one."
"We will deal with this matter immediately." The investigator said, "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Zhu. We will arrange the relevant matters of you as a witness of the prosecution as soon as possible." Zhu Hongjie nodded, with a hint of relief in his expression, but more of a complicated emotion.
After Zhu Hongjie left, the investigator looked at his solemn colleague beside him and asked:
"Brother Shan, what should I do now?"
"Now..."
Brother Shan took a sip of his cigarette hard and said:
"Let's go to Chang'an, we will bring down a big man this time."
