<h4>Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: Irond Case</h4>


    Not long after dinner, An Zhiyuan went out, saying he was going to find arade.


    Although An Zhiyuan didn’t say anything, Bai Xiao could still guess that he was definitely going out to inquire about Yu Shaoyan and make connections.


    A phone call certainly couldn’t solve such a problem, and it would be inappropriate for An Zhiyuan not to visit personally.


    She, on the other hand, was patiently waiting for a call from Jiang Shaoqing, having been too angry earlier to ask the most important question—how is that troublemaker Shang Kaiwen now?


    If Shang Kaiwen isn’t dealt with, she always feels an inexplicable sense of crisis.


    The grudges from the previous life; in this life, leaving Shang Kaiwen a chance to get her killed didn’t seem right.


    But she didn’t want to get her hands dirty, so it seemed she needed help from Jiang Shaoqing.


    The phone rang.


    Bai Xiao picked it up almost immediately. It wasn’t surprising she was so nervous—her connection with Yu Shaoyan in her past life and their close blood ties in this life—if she weren’t nervous, that would be strange.


    "Bai Xiao, did your uncle offend someone?"


    Unexpectedly, Jiang Shaoqing’s first words were that.


    That statement instantly sank Bai Xiao’s heart.


    Jiang Shaoqing certainly wouldn’t speak without cause.


    "What do you mean?"


    "This time, someone has reported Yu Shaoyan for epting bribes and sent evidence along with theint letter. This matter has already rmed the higher-ups because the evidence, investigated thoroughly, is conclusive. It’s fair to say your uncle’s case is as solid as iron." Jiang Shaoqing hadn’t expected his inquiry to uncover such a significant issue.


    The second son of the Yu Family is the specific case the higher-ups have emphasized must be dealt with strictly—not merely enforced strictly because the evidence this time is very conclusive.


    "Jiang Shaoqing, what bribe did my uncle receive?"


    On this point, she firmly believed her uncle wasn’t that kind of person, of course based on her past life’s uncle, a person with such integrity and righteousness. How could he have changed before meeting her in this life? Even with the butterfly effect, it shouldn’t be so exaggerated.


    Destinies from the past life have indeed changed significantly in this life.


    Yet bad people remain bad, and good people remain good.


    This nature has not changed so far.


    It’s just that in the past life, good people didn’t have good oues; in this life, because of her presence, good people have received their due endings.


    And bad people have received punishment.


    So, no matter what, she wouldn’t believe her uncle was someone who epted bribes.


    "This concerns funds for the construction of a hospital staff dormitory. There is a report saying your uncle was given fifty thousand in bribe money, and indeed, this amount appeared in a bank card signed by your uncle, while the project that was allocated should have built only two dormitory buildings, yet your uncle allocated funds to build five staff dormitory buildings.


    Furthermore, the signing of this project was indeed personally signed by your uncle.


    This incident practically seals your uncle’s guilt; even attempting to overturn the case, it might not be possible to provide any substantial evidence."


    "Why do you think my uncle fell into someone else’s trap?" Bai Xiao keenly sensed that Jiang Shaoqing wouldn’t casually say such things.


    Jiang Shaoqing really wanted to p himself; he hadn’t been cautious speaking to Bai Xiao.


    "Because after I heard about this, I made a simple inquiry; your uncle’s bank ount money was transferred through apany named Maoming Trading, because of therge amount, throughpany transfer, and as far as I know, thispany is a shellpany.


    How could a hospital transfer bribe money to your uncle through a shellpany?


    And leave indelible evidence via bank transfer. I think even if your uncle were to ept bribes, he wouldn’t be so foolish as to leave leverage in someone else’s hands; wouldn’t giving cash be more convenient than a bank transfer? More discreet?"


    Bai Xiao smirked lightly, yes, such an obvious loophole, how could the investigators not see it? They still detained her uncle, it’s because someone above spoke up.


    "Can you investigate who owns this shellpany for me? I believe since it can be pushed out as a scapegoat, of course, thispany should be handled very cleanly, but as long as it’s something done by people, there will be traces left. With your ability to investigate these things, it shouldn’t be a problem.


    Of course, I hope you can help me." Bai Xiao knew clearly that since this matter happened, she and An Zhiyuan are soldiers, interfering in this matter isn’t appropriate.


    Military and government are separated, with no oveps or entanglements, this is the country’s policy and direction.


    Even if An Zhiyuan can speak up, doesn’t he need to provide solid evidence?


    Even to overturn the case, evidence is needed.


    "How can I help you? Investigating this part, of course, I can help you, but if you expect me to exert pressure from above, that probably won’t work, because this time, the Wang Family is involved, and this is the famously incorruptible prosecutor.


    The procuratorate exercises prosecutorial power independently, ording to thew, without interference from any executive organ, social group, or individual. And for any citizen, thew is applied equally.


    Attempting to take shortcuts here is absolutely not possible.


    Wang Ruo’an’s father can sit in this position today partly because this person is indeed upright, none of the cases he handled were wrong, suspicious, or unjust; he’s a very righteous old man.


    And I advise you not just us appearing to say something, including from your side not casually finding someone to speak up, this old man doesn’t respond to soft or hard, once you speak up, his handling of this matter might determine the case’s direction.


    This is my heartfelt warning from a friend."


    Jiang Shaoqing hadn’t considered helping Bai Xiao by calling in favors, but when he heard the supervisor in charge was Wang Ruo’an’s father, he actually breathed a sigh of relief, though this old man was unyielding, he was also a person who handled matters pragmatically.


    Bai Xiao thought deeply, so it’s Wang Ruo’an’s father.


    The Wang Family?


    Wasn’t he a staunch admirer of Shang Kaiwen?


    Could there be traces of Shang Kaiwen in this matter?


    "What’s Shang Kaiwen busy withtely?"


    This questionpletely baffled Jiang Shaoqing.


    Just a second ago, they were discussing Bai Xiao’s uncle, and now suddenly switched to another person’s matter.


    "Shang Kaiwen has recently been getting close to a returned overseas Chinese. It’s said the person wants to invest domestically, and she’s been very close, helping the person find connections. It’s heard that the person, during the past movements, lost their entire family forcing them ultimately to follow rtives to Nanyang, unexpectedly made a name there, and now returns seeking a woman, who reportedly helped him in the past."
