Chapter 2915 The Recorder's Memory Card

It was precisely because he was still somewhat wary of Yang Yuxin, and because he realized that Yang Guoqiang might have been monitoring his residence all along, that Qin Feng asked Feng Changjun to make a phone call.

After getting off work that day, Qin Feng said to Zhang Xinming, who was carrying his briefcase as usual, "I have some personal business tonight, so you don't need to take me home. You can go home by yourself."

Zhang Xinming paused for a moment, then hesitated before saying, "Mayor, I..."

"Just say what you have to say, why are you beating around the bush?" Qin Feng said with a smile, then walked out of the office.

“Mayor, I don’t necessarily have to follow you, but… I’m afraid it might not be safe. At least you have to let me know where we’re going,” Zhang Xinming said, mustering his courage.

After Qi Yaqiu's incident, Zhang Xinming became very sensitive about Qin Feng going out in private, fearing that Qin Feng would also have an accident like Qi Yaqiu did when he went out in private.

"See? He treated me to dinner. Now you can rest assured, right?" Qin Feng smiled and pointed to Feng Changjun, who was waiting by the car downstairs.

Feng Changjun's car led the way, with Qin Feng's car following behind.

Qin Feng didn't let Zhang Xinming come along because Feng Changjun didn't trust Zhang Xinming, or rather, he didn't want Zhang Xinming to be present. Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept it from the office. Feng Changjun felt it wasn't safe to talk in Qin Feng's office, which was probably a way of keeping an eye on Zhang Xinming.

Qin Feng understood this perfectly, since Feng Changjun and Zhang Xinming weren't that familiar with each other, which was why Qin Feng told Zhang Xinming not to come along.

Since Qin Feng didn't let Feng Changjun get into his car, Feng Changjun could only ride in his own car and lead the way for Qin Feng's car.

After getting into the car, Qin Feng closed his eyes to rest and was able to fall asleep quickly. These were special abilities he had developed from being exhausted during this period.

When Qin Feng was Zhou Qiming's secretary, he always had a question in his mind: how could Zhou Qiming fall asleep so quickly as soon as he got in the car? Now he understood: it was all forced upon him. For him, the rest time in the car was too precious.

Qin Feng didn't let Feng Changjun get in his car because he was too tired after a long day at work and wanted to rest.

The place Feng Changjun invited Qin Feng to was rather special—a restaurant located in the suburbs. However, this restaurant was quite unique, having been designed as a large estate.

The decor was antique and elegant, clearly costing a fortune to build. Qin Feng had been to many places like this, but he still liked them because they weren't as noisy as ordinary restaurants, nor were they in the city center, making them perfect for people of their status to dine and discuss business.

The car naturally didn't enter directly through the main gate; it still entered from the back.

The car drove directly into a separate courtyard inside the manor. There was no one else in the courtyard except for the waiters. Feng Changjun personally came over to open the car door for Qin Feng.

After getting out of the car, Qin Feng looked around the place. The environment was first-class, with small bridges, flowing water, courtyards, and pavilions. Most importantly, it was quiet. It was clear that Feng Changjun had gone to great lengths to prepare for his meeting with Qin Feng that evening.

There are many places like this around the sandbar, and this one isn't the most luxurious or famous, but Qin Feng thinks it's a very nice place.

Only Qin Feng and Feng Changjun were eating. The food was obviously arranged in advance by Feng Changjun, consisting of many dishes with a Jiangnan flavor. Feng Changjun also specially prepared a bottle of good wine.

Because Feng Changjun hadn't allowed anyone to be present, including the waiters, he personally poured wine for Qin Feng after the dishes were served.

"It's just the two of us having a meal and chatting, and you're going to all this trouble?" Qin Feng asked Feng Changjun with a smile.

"I've been wanting to invite you to dinner for a while now, and this is a rare opportunity," Feng Changjun said with a smile as he poured Qin Feng a drink.

"This place is nice, unique, and most importantly, quiet." Qin Feng nodded slightly.

The two of them ate a large table of food, but the atmosphere was a bit monotonous.

The two chatted as they ate, and after three drinks, Qin Feng got down to business: "So, what do you want to talk to me about? Is it about Qi Yaqiu's death?"

“Nothing escapes the mayor’s eyes, that’s true.” Feng Changjun nodded.

"Have you figured it out?" Qin Feng asked with a smile.

“There’s no need to think about this. It’s just that I don’t think this is the right time to talk about it. I’m busy, and you’re even busier. Talking about it now will only cause you trouble,” Feng Changjun said.

"That's true, things have finally stabilized now." Qin Feng nodded and toasted Feng Changjun.

After finishing his drink, Feng Changjun took out a USB drive from the inside pocket of his coat and placed it in front of Qin Feng.

Feng Changjun put the item in his inner pocket instead of his briefcase, which shows how much he valued it.

Qin Feng glanced at the USB drive that Feng Changjun handed over and found it strange, because the last time he saw a USB drive was when Ding Wenbo gave him Shao Hongli's evidence. Could it be that Feng Changjun also got someone's criminal evidence this time?

"What is this?" Qin Feng did not take the USB drive.

"A copy of the dashcam footage from Qi Yaqiu's car after his death," Feng Changjun said.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng's eyes widened as he stared at Feng Changjun, utterly shocked.

"The original was destroyed by someone arranged by Chang Yunbing. This is a copy made before he destroyed it," Feng Changjun explained to Qin Feng.

"Did you arrange for someone to make the copy?"

Feng Changjun shook his head and said, "No, after Qi Yaqiu's accident, I guessed what was going on. At that time, Chang Yunbing took the initiative to take charge of the case immediately, which made me even more aware that there was a problem. So I deliberately stayed away from the case and did not interfere in anything. Chang Yunbing was in charge of everything."

"Where did this come from?"

"A colleague from the Public Security Bureau gave it to me privately; you could say I asked him to do it," Feng Changjun said.

"Looking back now, Qi Yaqiu's death didn't seem like it was planned in advance; it was more like a spur-of-the-moment decision. Chang Yunbing was genuinely surprised when the news of Qi Yaqiu's death came. He hadn't made any prior preparations in handling the case, which is why someone had the opportunity to make a copy..."

Qin Feng handed Feng Changjun a cigarette and listened as Feng Changjun continued.

"After Qi Yaqiu's death, no one knew that the deceased was the mayor, so the first people to arrive after receiving the report were the traffic police, and the dashcam was immediately taken away by the traffic police who were on the scene."

"Later, Chang Yunbing got involved in the case and immediately sealed off the entire scene. All the people involved in the case were his people. All the traffic police at the scene were driven away, and no one was allowed to get close."

"Perhaps because the matter was so big, everyone panicked, including Chang Yunbing himself and his team. No one noticed that the car's dashcam memory card was missing."

"It wasn't until they went back to analyze the case that they realized the lack of a memory card in the dashcam was suspicious. They eventually contacted the traffic police, took the memory card away, and silenced the officers involved, ordering them not to tell anyone about the dashcam's memory card."

"Afterwards, I specifically had someone check, and there was no recorder memory card among the evidence in this case. Obviously, Chang Yunbing arranged for someone to secretly destroy the memory card," Feng Changjun further explained.
