Chapter 1150: Chapter 1150: The Same Old Trick 15

While Chen Yun was speaking, he continuously observed Gu Hengyuan’s expression, unsure whether Gu Hengyuan was an excellent actor or genuinely unaware of these matters.

“Luo Ying? Luo Jinsheng?” If Luo Ying hadn’t been killed, Gu Hengyuan wouldn’t have known there was such a person among those attending the training. Although Gu Hengyuan was in charge of this area, there were so many soldiers participating in the training; how could he possibly know each one?

Hearing that this Luo Ying was actually pretending to be a soldier and was in fact named Luo Jinsheng, the name sounded even more unfamiliar to Gu Hengyuan.

Being accused of impersonating a soldier was a serious crime. Gu Hengyuan carefully scrutinized all the investigation records that Chen Yun had provided and said, “I don’t know Luo Ying or Luo Jinsheng. Military transfers, unless in special situations involving special personnel, are something I wouldn’t get involved with, especially not for new recruits. Could it be that there’s an error in your investigation?”

Gu Hengyuan spoke earnestly and sincerely, “To impersonate a soldier is a grave offense, not to mention having someone with a criminal background do it.”

Gu Hengyuan’s demeanor was so honest that even Chen Yun couldn’t find a single flaw, nor did he detect any hint of deception when Gu Hengyuan spoke of Luo Jinsheng; he truly seemed unaware.

In fact, Chen Yun himself understood that the Gu Family achieved their current position without making such blunders. Moreover, having a rogue impersonate a soldier and enter the capital’s military bore no benefit to the Gu Family. Holding the military’s power in their hands, if the Gu Family needed help from military personnel, there was no need for such subterfuge.

Although Chen Yun understood this, he deliberately stayed in Gu Hengyuan’s office for a full half-hour before leaving angrily, as the charade needed to be convincing.

As soon as Chen Yun left, Gu Hengyuan immediately began his own investigation into the matter.

Not even recognizing the name, Gu Hengyuan had never heard of Luo Jinsheng. How could he possibly have ordered Luo Jinsheng’s transfer from Y City’s military to the capital’s military?

With a single phone call, Gu Hengyuan reached a subordinate whose name was mentioned in the records. After learning the specific details from the subordinate, Gu Hengyuan was so enraged he nearly suffered a stroke.

Circling back and forth, this matter was linked to Gu En once again!

The conclusion was that years ago, Gu En, under the guise of her father Gu Hengyuan’s name, had called his unit to facilitate Luo Ying’s transfer to the capital’s unit.

“Gu En again?” After hearing the whole story, Grandma Gu was at a loss for words.

“Over these years, just how many things has Gu En done without informing both our families?” Lan Father was also dumbfounded by the truth, “Given that it’s Gu En, then it’s indeed possible she killed Luo Ying—or rather, Luo Jinsheng. What’s the reason for Gu En to silence him?”

“Lan Song.” Lan Li could think of no other reason.

When Grandma Gu heard this, she nodded, “Back when Gu En was in prison, she was very agitated and mentioned Lan Song’s death, hinting that it was under her instruction. If this Luo Jinsheng was brought into the capital’s military by Gu En, then it’s possible Luo Jinsheng killed Lan Song on Gu En’s orders.”

Thinking of this, Lan Li suddenly felt that Gu En’s behavior back in S Province could now be explained.

If someone hadn’t timely informed Gu En, she wouldn’t have just conveniently left S Province to return to the capital right after Lan Song’s death.

Moreover, before the incident with Lan Song, Gu En had interactions with him.
