Rebirth in the 90s: Melting My Devoted Mr. Iceberg

Chapter 1328: Chapter 1328: Nothing Gained

"Confirmed!"

The two words landed with a resounding impact. Yet, Mr. Lan’s face turned grim. Turning his head, he called out loudly: "Someone, come here!"

"Minister, what are your orders?"

"Take some people and investigate thoroughly, find out who delivered the lunch?"

"Yes!"

After assigning the task to his subordinates, Mr. Lan turned to Jiang Xue with a face full of gratitude and said, "Jiang Xue, thank you!"

"Mr. Lan, no need to be so courteous." Jiang Xue smiled and shook her head, then said, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now."

She had already discovered that Wu Ding’s death was faked, and the remaining matters would be handled by Mr. Lan and his team; she didn’t want to get involved further.

However, Mr. Lan didn’t want Jiang Xue to leave just yet. He thought he might need her assistance again, so he said to her, "Jiang Xue, it’s getting late; you should stay here tonight. Moreover, if something comes up, we can reach you promptly."

"Mr. Lan, I’m not sure if that’s appropriate?"

"There’s nothing inappropriate, you’re the helper I’ve invited, staying one night here is no big deal."

Having said that much, Jiang Xue had no choice but to stay. Thus, Mr. Lan instructed Xiao Chen to arrange accommodations for Jiang Xue.

Xiao Chen led Jiang Xue to a guest room, allowing her to rest first. Meanwhile, they had more work to do. After all, Wu Ding was not an ordinary person. Furthermore, they now suspected internal issues, so they needed to resolve them swiftly, otherwise the consequences could be dire.

Jiang Xue called home to tell Father Jiang that she had matters to attend to and wouldn’t be returning that night. After hanging up, she lay down on the bed to rest.

But lying in bed, she couldn’t sleep. Her mind was occupied with the issue of the fake death drug. This drug wasn’t something easily concocted. Even she might not be able to create it.

It was evident that someone proficient in medical skills was backing Wu Ding and his group. From the previous Gu poison to the current fake death drug, Jiang Xue believed the organization behind Wu Ding was quite powerful. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have access to such things.

Jiang Xue drifted off to sleep after a while of random thoughts. Meanwhile, Mr. Lan and his team weren’t resting. Upon learning that Wu Ding’s death was faked, he immediately reported the situation to the higher-ups, and after getting their approval, began an internal investigation.

However, after half a day of investigation, they found nothing amiss.

Having worked most of the night without any results, Mr. Lan felt quite defeated, unable to fathom where the fake death drug came from.

With no issues found and the hour getting late, Mr. Lan had no choice but to let his team rest. Everyone went to rest while Mr. Lan sat alone in his office, quietly pondering the problem. He wondered which part had gone wrong, why Wu Ding suddenly faked his death?

How did the fake death drug end up in Wu Ding’s possession? Initially, he suspected the person who delivered lunch, but that person was a veteran in the department, senior to him, with a clear family background, revealing no issues.

Later, he suspected the lunch itself, but upon inquiring, Wu Ding’s meal was the same food they all ate, cooked in the same pot, without any problems.

Then he examined those who had been in contact with Wu Ding, again finding nothing.

This had no problems, that had no problems, so where did the problem actually lie? How did Wu Ding get the fake death drug?

Mr. Lan was baffled, his head aching.
