Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen) -
Chapter 2258
"Fade, I have already interrogated the suspects." Jaguar's voice came through from the other side of the phone. Fade asked, "What did you find out?"
Jaguar responded in a somewhat disappointed tone, "The suspect is Elod Liu. He used to be a butler in the Song family. After that, he was bestowed the surname Song, and had changed his name to Elod Song."
"Elod confessed about the sneak attack on you in Micovia, as well as the incident this time. It was all arranged by Zakhar Song, the elder of the Song family, who is also Hareeta's grandfather. It was all to avenge his granddaughter."
"Thus, we went to the Song family to investigate this matter, but they had denied the charges. They claimed that Elod was lying and was falsely accusing them."
"What's more, the Song family even provided evidence to prove that Elod had already been kicked out of the Song family for his mistakes half a year ago. His Song surname was taken away and he had henceforth used his original name, Elod Liu."
"In short, the Song family claimed that this matter had nothing to do with them. They suspected that Elod was unhappy with the fact that he had been kicked out and as such, he had deliberately framed them." "The Song family did come up with conclusive evidence, but on our side, we don't have any evidence except for Elod's confession."
After listening to Jaguar's words, Fade was silent for a moment before he said, "General Xu, as for now, we can only assume that Zakhar Song is behind all these incidents, but we can't do much due to the lack of evidence."
"Exactly." Jaguar sighed and then quickly appeased him, "Fade, I will continue with the secret investigation. As long as he is still out there, we will definitely find the evidence. Until then, we won't let go of any suspects."
"Thus, Fade, don't be impulsive. The Song family is a real martial arts family. Their background is stronger than you think, and there is definitely more than one Half-Lord Level master, so don't..." Fade understood him clearly. He nodded and promised in a flat tone, "General Xu, don't worry. I'll behave myself."
"I'm glad to hear that you can think calmly and rationally." Jaguar continued, "I'll inform you immediately once I get more information." "Well, thank you, General Xu." Fade nodded and then hung up the phone. After ending the call, he stared out of the window for a couple of seconds, not moving an inch.
At this moment, anger flashed through his eyes like crimson flames. He was not as calm as he was before.
Deep down, he knew that Jaguar was telling the truth, that they could not take any action against the Song family without any evidence. However, he knew that Jaguar was also holding something back. That was, they could not tell for certain if they could really lay a hand on the Song family even if they did have the evidence.
Jaguar was the Army Lord, the head of the military and a Half-Lord Level master. He might seem god-like in the ordinary people's opinions.
Regardless, he would still have a hard time if he had to deal with a real martial arts family alone.
After all, Jaguar had mentioned that the Song family had a deep foundation and there was more than one Half-Lord Level master in the family.
If a conflict really broke out between the two parties, it was still uncertain of how the higher-ups would handle the Song family, even if Fade had Jaguar on his side.
Upon thinking of this matter, Fade was annoyed. He took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart.
A moment later, he regained his composure.
Out of the blue, there was a knock on the door, and Tom's voice was heard, "Brother Fade, are you in there?"
"Yes!" Fade got up and opened the door.
Tom suggested, "Brother Fade, let's have dinner together tonight. We'll invite Caesar as well. Let's have a little gathering to lighten up Fatty's mood."
Fade knew that although Scott seemed to be fine in the ballroom a moment ago, Sierra's incident still had an impact on him. It would not be easy for him to let go of the whole event completely. Undeniably, it wasn't a bad idea to have a little gathering; it could help him ease up a little.
"Okay, I'll get changed and I'll meet you guys in a while," Fade said.
Five minutes later, he went downstairs to the hotel lobby.
Tom and Scott were already waiting there. While Tom was making a phone call, Scott peeped at the beauties passing by the hotel goofily, just like he usually did. Fade was relieved to see him like that. When Fade came over, Tom frowned and hung up the phone.
"What's wrong?" Fade asked.
Tom replied, "I can't reach Caesar. I have called him several times but it seems that his phone is turned off."
"Turned off? He must have had a fun night. Could he still be sleeping?" Scott guessed naturally.
Tom said, "Maybe. Let's go first, I'll call him on the way."
On the other hand, Fade began to ponder with a frown.
Caesar was steady and reliable. He would never turn off his phone without any apparent reason. On top of that, he knew that he was recently dealing with the conflict between the classic medical and the witch medical. He couldn't help but be worried.
Thinking of this, he said to Tom and Fatty, "Wait a minute, I need to make a phone call."
Fade took out his phone and dialed Jason's number.
A moment later, he hung up the phone and his expression darkened. Apparently, Jason's phone was also turned off.
Before Fade left for Greenery
Mountain to participate in the
competition, Caesar had told him
that Jason would be flying to Roann City to persuade the witch clinic to join the Chinese Medicine Association.
The witch clinic and the classic medical were not on good terms. Liborio, the former chief of the witch clinic, held a grudge against Jason. He believed that Jason was the suspect who had killed his eldest son, Sabian.
In view of this, Fade started to worry as both Caesar and Jason were unreachable.
Thinking of this, he lost his appetite. He said to Tom and Scott, "I'm afraid that something bad has happened to Caesar. You guys go ahead. I need to go and have a look."
"Brother Fade, what has happened to Caesar?" Scott asked in a hurry.
Tom added, "Brother Fade, where are you going? Let's go together."
"Er, okay, let's go together then." Fade didn't turn down their offers and nodded.
Then, the three drove out.
Fade briefed them about the witch clinic in the car.
After hearing this, the two of them couldn't help but be worried too.
The three of them finally arrived at the entrance of the witch clinic more than an hour later.
The clinic, which was usually crowded with people, was now in complete darkness, and its front door was tightly shut.
Upon seeing this, Fade's heart thumped and he became anxious.
"Maybe they have just gotten off work." Scott also felt that something was wrong but he tried to comfort them.
"Let's get down and ask!" Fade said.
Immediately, the three of them got out of the car and walked to the nearby merchants to ask about the witch clinic.
