The Invincible Son-in-law-Chapter 611 - 611: Tampered

Chapter 611

Lin Hao drove to the highway entrance, directly identifying himself, intending to investigate the cause of the accident.
Because County Magistrate Wei is the magistrate of Wucheng County, the highway traffic police were aware that someone would certainly come to investigate, so they towed the damaged car back to the traffic police team.
The car, already smashed to pieces, was parked in the courtyard of the traffic police team.
Captain Luo Mingyang, from the Wucheng County traffic police team, was inspecting the damage with a few others, his face somewhat grim.
Just a moment ago, his team discovered a brake fluid leak in the car. They were conducting final checks to determine the cause.
If someone tampered with the County Committee's official vehicle, it becomes a premeditated murder, requiring an investigation.
Seeing Lin Hao get out of his car, Luo Mingyang knew he was surely here to investigate the car's condition as well, and quickly strode over to chat with him privately.
"County Magistrate Lin, I'm Captain Luo Mingyang from the traffic police team," Captain Luo Mingyang introduced himself.
Lin Hao glanced at the car being inspected in the distance, reached out to shake his hand, and asked in a deep voice: "How is the inspection going?"
"We just found a brake fluid leak issue and are conducting further inspections..." Captain Luo replied.
"Captain Luo, this car is Secretary Li's official vehicle, its performance is excellent and has been regularly serviced, the brake fluid shouldn't be leaking!" Lin Hao said in a deep voice.
Captain Luo leaned slightly closer, lowering his voice, "It seems someone has tampered with the car."
"Can you be certain?" Lin Hao's face darkened.
"I've instructed my team to check again for direct evidence," Captain Luo responded.
"Alright, I'll wait in the car, notify me if there's any news," Lin Hao nodded slightly, his face darkening as he pointed to his car.
"Understood," Captain Luo replied.
After Lin Hao got in the car, he lit a cigarette, his face wavering between light and dark, a hint of murder flickering in his eyes.
It was clear someone wanted Li Jingyi dead, thus tampering with her official vehicle to make it look like an accident.
Luckily, Li Jingyi felt unwell, and had Wei Dong go to the meeting instead, narrowly avoiding disaster.
However, with Wei Dong now dead, the real culprit must be found, this matter will not be simply let go.
Lin Hao took out his phone to call Li Jingyi, but she was constantly engaged, likely ing the incident to her superiors or investigating the case.
About ten minutes later, Captain Luo walked over with the investigation , slowly entered the passenger seat.
"County Magistrate Lin, the inspection results show a brake fluid system leak, upon further checking, someone indeed tampered with it, causing this accident..."
Captain Luo detailed the record.
Listening to the , Lin Hao's heart sank, he took a deep breath, his eyes shining with piercing cold light.
"This car is Secretary Li's official vehicle, it barely leaves our sight, and when back, it's parked in its dedicated garage, now with the driver dead, it shows he had no issues..." Lin Hao analyzed carefully.
"County Magistrate Lin, if someone tampered, they must have sneaked into the garage, the County Committee has surveillance, I want to access the footage, is that possible?" Captain Luo asked.
"Captain Luo, since it's confirmed someone tampered with the car, immediately file a case for investigation. You must access all surveillance of our County Committee and government, investigate the car's trajectory during this period, check every parking point's footage..."
Lin Hao nodded slightly, instructing in detail: "To assist your work, I'll have Director Kang from the police station investigate, your team should assist them, let's hope you can find the mastermind..."
Then, Lin Hao called Director Kang over, assigning them the arduous task of secretly investigating the accident before driving away.
Shortly after getting on the road, Lin Hao received a call from Li Jingyi.
"How's the investigation going?" Li Jingyi anxiously asked.
"The situation isn't good, the brake fluid system was tampered with," Lin Hao answered in a deep voice.
"It seems someone wants me dead!" Li Jingyi's face turned pale.
"Secretary Li, I've arranged for Director Kang from the police station to file a case, Captain Luo from the traffic police team will assist him, I hope they can catch the real culprit..." Lin Hao ed.
Li Jingyi hadn't expected him to react so swiftly, to uncover the brake fluid issue so quickly and immediately have Director Kang file a case, his decisiveness bold and capable.
However, with her many years in politics, she's offended many, unclear who the mastermind is behind it, whether it's pure revenge or a larger conspiracy?
Current political struggles are swift and ruthless, one careless move leads to destruction without a trace.
Today's events were sheer luck, what about next time? And the time after? Will fortune still favor her?
The thought terrified Li Jingyi, burdening her with immense pressure, prompting her to immediately the matter to the City Government.
Once Secretary Cao learned of this, he took it very seriously, promptly instructing Wuning City Public Security Bureau to send people to thoroughly investigate this matter.
With such a major incident occurring in Wucheng County, Lin Hao inevitably didn't return to rest, but went to the government office, awaiting investigation results from various sides.
Initially, he wanted to visit Li Jingyi in Building No. 2, yet ultimately refrained to avoid suspicion.
Now both the government office and County Committee office are brightly lit, particularly Director Zheng Yanbo from the government office, fully responsible for County Magistrate Wei's funeral arrangements, family accommodations and reception work, tirelessly busy.
Furthermore, other staff from the government office were called back for overtime, Lu Xiaodan, as Lin Hao's liaison, hurried back upon receiving news.
Director Kang from the police station led a team to the County Committee and government, retrieved surveillance footage from recent days, also investigating County Magistrate Wei's office and Building No. 2 accommodation rooms.
Actually, the busiest ones were a few top City Government officials, initially planning to let County Magistrate Wei perform a routine duty, unexpectedly facing such a serious event.
The issue now is who will fill the position of Wucheng County's magistrate, or whether to directly promote Lin Hao.
After Secretary Cao and Mayor Ma discussed it over the phone, they reluctantly reached consensus, intending to appoint Lin Hao as acting magistrate, concurrently serving as Deputy Secretary of the County Committee.
Clearly, the acting assessment period is six months, if performance is good within this duration, it will be formalized, otherwise, he'll be sent away in disgrace.
However, the decision requires a meeting tomorrow with the other standing committee members to finalize.
