Lin Chuan glanced back at Shen Qianqian, casting an inquisitive look.
Shen Qianqian blinked, her face breaking into a radiant smile.
Lin Chuan understood.
This was Shen Qianqian doing ideological work for He Zhi, clearing his own name of suspicion.
At least, it cleared away a good portion of the suspicion.
Moreover, He Zhi would now need something from him; otherwise, his attitude wouldn't have changed so drastically.
It turned out to be true.
Lin Chuan's guess was entirely correct.
"Officer He, I am just cooperating with the investigation," Lin Chuan said as he saw He Zhi extend an olive branch, not pushing him away.
He Zhi chuckled, "Comrade Lin Chuan, I won't lie to you, the tomb robbing and the murder case at the Seven Stars Lu King Palace have weighed on me for quite some time, attracting attention from all sectors of society. So, I might have been a bit impatient."
