Chapter 1363: Silencing Witnesses

The call was from Lie Huo; he said he found the repair technician, but he was already a corpse.

"Madam, the coroner has commenced work; the estimated time of death is between 3 to 5 PM," Lie Huo said.

Mu Anhan understood that it means he couldn’t board the plane yesterday, but since the bombing had already occurred, the repair technician had to die.

"The fatal wound was on the neck, a single lethal cut," Lie Huo continued, "It should be the work of a professional killer. Also, traces of bomb installation were found on his usual repair tools at his residence. If there is any other news, I will report it immediately."

"Understood." Mu Anhan put down the phone and looked at Xue Xiangtong, "The repair technician was killed to silence him."

"But the evidence against him probably hasn’t been destroyed; let’s go have a look!" Mu Anhan stood up.

Xue Xiangtong went along with her, and when they arrived at the residence, a neighbor came out to speak: "His wife and children have all gone abroad. We’ve always wondered how a machinist could afford to send his kids abroad; turns out he committed crimes?"

Police had already been there earlier to investigate and collect evidence, as well as to interview neighboring residents.

Xue Xiangtong expressed indignation, "What’s wrong with our own country? Why go abroad? To face others’ discrimination? Those who worship foreign cultures are truly incurable! Moreover, he endangered his country for it; his death is not unjust."

"Exactly!" Lv Feiya nodded in agreement, "Although our country has areas that need improvement, it is still our own land, and standing on it feels solid."

Su Ziliang sighed, "We can’t generalize; some people go abroad to learn scientific knowledge and come back to contribute to our country. They face exclusion abroad but have our country in their hearts; these people deserve admiration. Others go abroad for their livelihoods, silently enduring others’ disdain; they also deserve comfort. Of course, there is another group purely seeking the so-called liberal lifestyle abroad; they are different."

Mu Anhan looked at them, "Zi Liang is right! Not everyone goes abroad for the enjoyment of foreign culture; some aim for better opportunities to build our country."

Lv Feiya turned her head, looking at Su Ziliang with admiration.

Su Ziliang turned away, not accepting her gaze.

Xue Xiangtong and Mu Anhan exchanged a glance; affairs of the heart are indeed beyond control.

"Someone is following up on the repair technician; once we have new evidence, we will discuss it again," Mu Anhan said. "The pressing matter is to find the person who connected with the repair technician; who provided the bomb to him? Zi Liang, Feiya, you two investigate together, and report any findings promptly."

"Understood!" Lv Feiya responded promptly.

Su Ziliang went to check the surveillance footage to see how the repair technician received the bomb recently.

Mu Anhan took out paper and pen. "Pei Zhe opened it at the time, and I glanced at it; the bomb was incredibly intricate and made almost no sound. I truly wonder if it’s our luck that the three of us are alive; I’ll sketch it for you to see..."

As she spoke, she drew something only the size of a watch dial.

"If it wasn’t professionally made, it would be hard to be so intricate and yet so powerful," Su Ziliang said after looking at it.
