After divorcing my celebrity wife, I became the world's richest person

"We\'ve basically captured all the key figures of this group, but they just refuse to divulge the person behind it all!"

As he said this, Zhou Shengtao\'s face took on a strange expression.

"Actually, I don\'t even know how to put it, it\'s like these people have never seen, or rather, they don\'t know the true identity of the person controlling them from behind."

Chen Yu was also taken aback for a moment; he had not expected there to be someone in this world who could actually achieve such a feat.

Not only to have complete control over their subordinates and all of their affairs but also to keep their true identity unknown to these people.

This was definitely the work of a mastermind! No wonder Zhou Shengtao was so helpless that he had to resort to arresting suspects in a public place like an airport.

After wandering around the living room for several laps, Chen Yu suddenly discovered a very inconspicuous hairpin in a corner.

According to what Zhou Shengtao had said, the gang was all male; how could such an item be present?

Just then, Zhou Shengtao\'s phone suddenly rang. He hurriedly answered it and then left the place.

But before leaving, he handed a stack of documents to Chen Yu.

On the surface, this case seemed to be a simple case of forgery, but since it involved human lives, no one dared to take it lightly.

As Chen Yu reviewed the files, he found that many of the clues could not be connected.

Especially the victims; no matter how he looked at it, there seemed to be no connection between these people, and their deaths were all unexplained.

There were two individuals that, if not for Zhou Shengtao uncovering clues, the coroner might have determined their deaths as accidental.

Chen Yu noted down the basic information of the victims and decided to investigate thoroughly.

On the southern outskirts of Suzhou City, there was an ancient tower dating back many years.

Because it was located at a tourist attraction and considered a historical site, the place was extremely popular, but the most famous aspect was not the scenery but the vegetarian meals inside the tower.

Many came for the reputation, just to have a vegetarian meal there.

Chen Yu had investigated all day and came up with nothing, yet he found himself arriving at this place unwittingly.

It was now approaching evening, and there were not many tourists left, only two middle-aged men who looked somewhat shabby, sitting in front of a dining table and devouring their vegetarian meals.

Chen Yu unconsciously touched his stomach and found an empty table to sit down at.

"Sir, are you here to eat vegetarian meals or to pray?"

A delicate voice arose from not too far away, followed by a woman who appeared to be in her twenties, walking over slowly.

This woman was exceptionally beautiful, and her monk robes gave her an otherworldly aura.

Chen Yu smiled slightly, "I just happened to pass by and thought of seeking a fortune-telling slip in front of the Buddha. But as it so happens, I\'m also feeling hungry, so I might as well do both—eat a vegetarian meal and pray."

"You\'re really quite spontaneous," the woman replied politely, and then she brought out a well-assorted dish of vegetarian food.

Chen Yu\'s appetite was instantly aroused, but just as he was about to pick up his chopsticks to eat, he noticed that the two burly men not far off were glancing over at him from the corner of their eyes.

He subconsciously glanced at the two men and noticed something off about their expressions.

At first glance, the pair seemed to be homeless men who had not eaten for a very long time, but upon closer observation, one would note that they were robust, with fierce eyes, not at all like the perennially wandering homeless.

"Sir, is our food not to your taste? Why aren\'t you eating?" the woman asked gently.

Only then did Chen Yu come back to his senses, "That\'s not it. I just feel that when eating a vegetarian meal in front of the Buddha, one should at least pray silently in their heart."

The woman covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "The gentleman is quite particular!"

After placing a few more dishes down, the woman got up and gracefully left.

[SYSTEM WARNING]

An urgent alert suddenly sounded, followed by a flood of information in Chen Yu\'s mind, along with a three-dimensional topographical map of the area.

There was an ancient cemetery on the mountain, which included several new graves.

The system had extracted details from inside the tombs during its scan, and when Chen Yu saw the images in his mind, he immediately became unsettled.

The bodies interred in these graves hadn\'t been buried long and were highly identifiable.

Chen Yu recognized at a glance that these were the young girls who had recently disappeared.

Moreover, two of them seemed to be related to a counterfeiting case.

However, Chen Yu did not act rashly; instead, he sat there leisurely eating his vegetarian meal, while his gaze occasionally swept over the two burly men.

After the two had their fill, they left the pagoda and meandered down the mountain path, only to head straight for the cemetery behind.

Chen Yu immediately sensed something was amiss. Just as he prepared to get up and check, the woman from before floated out again and placed a bowl of noodle soup in front of him.

"The gentleman seems unfamiliar, what do you do?"

Chen Yu managed to squeeze out a slight smile, "I\'m in the catering business. Is it just you alone here in this pagoda?"

The woman nodded, "I\'ve been practicing here for many years, always by myself."

"Then you must be careful, Suzhou City has not been peaceful lately!"

As soon as he said this, Chen Yu\'s heart suddenly skipped a beat.

In the wilderness, within an ancient pagoda, lived a solitary woman. During the day with tourists, it was fine, but at night or other times, it was just her alone.

Even if she had a strong mental resolve and firm beliefs, as a woman living alone in this desolate place, she could not possibly be without fear.

"It is a peaceful and prosperous time now! How can you say that it\'s not peaceful outside?"

The woman asked as if jokingly, then prepared to rise and leave.

"Wait a moment!" Chen Yu suddenly called her back, "If I\'m not mistaken, this seems to be shrimp porridge. Such a pity that there are too many shrimp shells in it, and it\'s even made with oranges."

The woman\'s body suddenly froze, "What do you mean by that, sir? This porridge is a kind gesture for you, is there something wrong?"

Her words sounded utterly innocent as if Chen Yu was the one who had erred.

But anyone in the catering industry knows that shrimp shells contain large amounts of arsenic, which, when mixed with the vitamins in oranges, can form arsenic trioxide.

And that substance is the main component of arsenic poison! .net

"If I\'m not mistaken, those two men just now must be your underlings. They probably went to the cemetery to deal with a fresh body for you!"

The woman\'s body shook violently, with emotions rapidly shifting in her eyes.
