Chapter 66: Miss Hu Die (Seeking collections, monthly tickets, recommendation tickets)

~9 min read 1,759 words

"Section Chief Yu?

"Which Section Chief Yu?" Lu Qiaoshan asked coldly and suspiciously.

"Him!

"I call him Mr. Lao; the officer just now called him Section Chief Yu," Shopkeeper Qiu pointed at Yu Zecheng, biting his words to the end.

"Station Chief, what do you say?" Ma Kui laughed.

"Framing," Yu Zecheng said blandly.

"He has already confessed, and you are still saying it is framing?

"Section Chief Yu, I wonder if your mouth will still be this hard when you sit in this chair?" Ma Kui sneered.

Yu Zecheng smiled and did not argue.

"Stop arguing.

"Let him write first."

Wu Jingzhong glared fiercely at Yu Zecheng.

Yu Zecheng stood straight, his face unchanged.

Shopkeeper Qiu was still writing.

Every now and then he scratched his head, as if trying to remember everyone clearly.

This move also stunned Hong Zhiyou.

He wouldn't really sell them out, would he?

After all, this world still had quite a few differences from the original drama.

Soon, one name after another appeared on the list.

There were also detailed addresses.

There were actually more than ten of them.

"You have quite a few contacts.

"Madam Qin.

"Madam Zhu.

"Boss Zhang...

"There are quite a few people.

"Why are there no names?"

Wu Jingzhong asked.

"I, I don't know either," Shopkeeper Qiu said with his head drooping.

"Station Chief, Red Tickets have always been cautious.

"Even if there were names, they would be fake," Lu Qiaoshan laughed in agreement.

"That's right.

"Station Chief, let's make the arrests first.

"I will interrogate them one by one; I don't believe I won't be able to catch a big fish," Ma Kui agreed for once.

"Hmm.

"Not one can be missed, arrest them all for me!

"If there aren't enough men, pull people from Li Hanyuan's police bureau."

Wu Jingzhong ordered, furious.

"Station Chief, there are too many people, the interrogation room can't hold them, and they still need to be screened one by one; there isn't enough space," Lu Qiaoshan reminded.

"Secretly detain them at the Shuitun Prison first, tell Warden Song that I want to interrogate them one by one personally."

Wu Jingzhong glanced at the list and said.

Shopkeeper Qiu raised his head and asked cautiously: "Officer, can, can I go now?"

"Go?

"Wait until your comrades are all here, and after the party is over, we'll talk."

Wu Jingzhong snorted coldly.

After speaking, he fastened his collar and stood up, preparing to leave.

"Station Chief, how should Section Chief Yu be handled?" Ma Kui shouted at the top of his lungs.

"Zecheng, you better take care of yourself.

"It seems..."

Wu Jingzhong looked at Yu Zecheng with disappointment and left first.

"Old Yu, let's go to the next room and have a cup of tea.

"Everything will be cleared up."

Lu Qiaoshan patted Yu Zecheng and took him to the next room.

……

Hong Zhiyou followed Wu Jingzhong back to the Station Chief's office.

"They have all confessed, Zhiyou; even if I wanted to protect him, I couldn't," Wu Jingzhong said, tapping the table in anger.

He really hated that Yu Zecheng was so disappointing.

During the Qingpu class, he scored first in intelligence studies every time, an honor student.

During the Japanese occupation, he assassinated Li Haifeng alone, a hero personally commended by Director Dai.

Now, he was even his own favorite general.

He had just presented the red coral, and now he had become a Red Ticket.

Wu Jingzhong felt like he had seen a ghost.

"Station Chief, don't get angry and hurt your health.

"I saw that Qiu Ji's eyes were shifting; one look and you could tell he wasn't telling the truth.

"Before there is a result, you must trust Section Chief Yu."

Hong Zhiyou stood on the side, carefully accompanying him in conversation.

"Trust is an expensive luxury in this era.

"Zhiyou, have I been too kind and too lenient to you all?"

Wu Jingzhong laughed at himself coldly.

Not to mention the matters of Zuo Lan and Yong Jianqiu.

On the noon of the day Liu Wensheng had his accident, Yu Zecheng had indeed gone to the archives and the pharmacy.

Was it to treat rhinitis?

Or to report the news?

Only heaven knows!

……

Interrogation Room No. 2.

Yu Zecheng sat in the chair, drinking tea calmly.

"Old Yu, are you... really a Red Ticket?" Lu Qiaoshan sat on the side and shook his head in disbelief.

"Section Chief Lu, what do you think?" Yu Zecheng sipped his tea slowly.

"Old Yu.

"I have no prejudice against you.

"I only know that whatever Ma Kui determines must be bullshit," Lu Qiaoshan said, adjusting his gold-rimmed glasses.

If this charge were really confirmed.

Ma Kui would be flying high on the spot.

Lu Qiaoshan hoped more than anyone that Yu Zecheng was not a Red Ticket.

"Then it must be bullshit.

"If, I say if, I really become a ghost of injustice.

"Old Lu, you can send me off then.

"Make me look decent."

Yu Zecheng sighed as if he were doomed.

"Don't worry.

"This little favor, this brother can still help with.

"If you are really wronged, I will investigate to the end; at the very least, I will ensure you leave in one piece."

Lu Qiaoshan patted his chest and made a guarantee.

"Thanks."

Yu Zecheng nodded.

"You and I are friends, saying this makes us strangers," Lu Qiaoshan laughed.

……

Jinhai, Building 12-35, Machang Road.

Compared to the villas next door covering thousands of square meters, this small building was not eye-catching.

In the garden, birds were singing and flowers were fragrant.

At a small white table, three women were leisurely enjoying the afternoon sun.

The woman was wearing a white dress, her hair coiled up.

Her thick, curved brows, exquisite face, and full curves were about to burst out, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.

Occasionally, between their laughter, every frown and smile was charming.

"Sister Mei, let me introduce you; this is the famous big star from the Shanghai Bund, Miss Hu Die," a beautiful and noble woman sitting on the side laughed.

Her name was Zhu Jiu.

She was the wife of Wu Taixun, the beloved son of the former Fengtian warlord Wu Junsheng.

As the daughter of the former Beiyang Minister of the Interior, Zhu Jiu was naturally one of the first "sisters" Sister Mei got to know upon arriving in Jinhai.

Of course, there was another layer of unknown secrecy.

Wu Taixun was a sworn brother of Dai Li.

And Zhu Jiu also intended to curry favor with the "local emperor" Wu Jingzhong.

Therefore, despite the significant age difference, they were as close as sisters on a daily basis.

"Miss Hu!

"It really is you; I was wondering why you looked so familiar.

"That movie you acted in..."

Mei Qiuju was greatly shocked and hurriedly stood up, nodding and bowing to flatter her.

Who was Hu Die?

Being a movie star was nothing; she was also the lover most favored by Boss Dai.

The boss's wife of the Military Statistics Bureau!

"I am good friends with Jiu'er, so thanks to her convenience, let me call you sister too," Hu Die smiled sweetly.

"Sister, you are so beautiful, just like a fairy descending to earth," Sister Mei praised from the bottom of her heart.

"Where, it is just a skin."

"Sister, you came to Jinhai, why didn't you let me know?

"I could have at least let Old Wu send some attendants to run errands for you," Sister Mei asked.

"It is all for that matter of Yunong's.

"He has had chronic rhinitis for a long time, and it flares up badly every autumn.

"Even the leader often jokes that Yunong's salary is all spent on handkerchiefs.

"So, I heard from Jiu'er that there is a Xuanji Pharmacy in Jinhai, and the owner's folk remedy is effective for rhinitis, so I snuck over a few days ago without telling Yunong.

"I also wanted to give him a surprise."

Hu Die's voice was soft and crisp; even women would feel itchy in their hearts when they heard it.

"You are thoughtful; no wonder Boss Dai values you so much," Sister Mei flattered appropriately.

"But you have to say, that prescription is quite effective.

"A few days ago, the willow catkins were flying badly, and Sister Mei and I both caught rhinitis; we went to the Army Hospital and the Western medicine didn't work.

"Not to mention, after taking a few doses of Shopkeeper Qiu's medicine, I am much better now."

Zhu Jiu laughed on the side.

The three of them chatted idly.

Suddenly, several police cars drove over quietly.

Detective Huang Zhong sat in the car, biting a cigarette, coldly watching the women in the residence.

He knew where this was.

Wu Taixun, Prince Wu's side residence.

Among those women, the most beautiful one looked a bit familiar, but he couldn't name her for a moment.

Another one was Wu Taixun's wife.

One was Wu Jingzhong's wife.

Shopkeeper Qiu had an accident.

The phone call was answered by Huang Zhong's wife.

Both of them were Red Tickets, old comrades from the Japanese occupation period.

The "Old Kite" that Wu Jingzhong had always wanted to catch was the code name for Huang Zhong and his wife.

Like Yu Zecheng, his superior was also Shopkeeper Qiu.

Of course, the security level was not as high as that of Yu and Liao.

At least Huang Zhong didn't know that his two sworn brothers were also on their side.

He had to protect Shopkeeper Qiu.

Fortunately, Old Qiu had left a backup plan early on, so everything should still be in time.

"Move.

"Station Chief Wu has ordered that they are suspected of communicating with the Red Tickets; no matter who they are, take them away directly.

"Little Li, remember, absolutely, absolutely do not hurt them, not even a single hair.

"Once caught, send them directly to Shuitun Prison and hand them over to Warden Song."

Huang Zhong got out of the car and ordered the greenhorns he had specifically recruited from Jixian and Jinghai.

As an old hand, he knew that the local police couldn't handle this job.

These new guys were not familiar with the madams of Jinhai.

And they were eager to make a contribution.

They were just right for doing this kind of rough work.

"Yes, Detective Huang."

The leader called Little Li beckoned, and a crowd of people rushed in.
