What led Chen Yi to suspect Miao Jing's boss of smuggling?

---

Key clues and moments that raise Chen Yi’s suspicions:

1. A news report about a criminal with ties to the nightclub Chen Yi sees a news article about a man who committed a violent incident and finds that he’d seen this man before—at Zhang Bin’s nightclub. It strikes him as more than coincidence. Also involved is a scandal involving unpaid guests that the nightclub quietly drops. These overlap with Zhang Bin’s domain of business.

2. Miaojing notices odd items in Chen Yi’s room Chen Yi keeps objects like walkie-talkies, listening devices, and weapons in his room—items that appear and disappear mysteriously. These raise her concern, because they suggest he’s involved with people who use delicate or secretive equipment.

3. Discrepancies in logistics/audit figures at Good Luck Logistics (Haoyun factory) As Miao Jing audits Haoyun’s shipments, the numbers don’t add up: cargo weights triple expectations, and certain data is inexplicably missing or signed off under suspicious circumstances. Chen Yi starts pushing for legitimate documents signed by the relevant staff, which makes it clear something is being hidden.

4. His background as an informant and past events (arson & criminal ties) Chen Yi’s earlier entanglement with criminal organizations (serving as a witness in an arson case) and his time infiltrating gangs gives him a sharper eye. Some of the methods Zhang Bin uses, such as protecting or covering up unsavory behavior, echo patterns Chen Yi already encountered—and therefore sets off alarm bells.

These clues combine empirical oddities (missing/logistics data) with personal connections and memories (knowing people from Zhang Bin’s nightclub, observing secretive equipment). They push Chen Yi from being wary to taking action, which eventually leads him and Miao Jing to work with Captain Zhou to expose the smuggling ring.
