Chapter 1220

These people are truly lawless!

As the two were talking, the door to the private room was knocked. Xu Yufu said, "Come in."

The door was pushed open, and the owner personally brought the dishes in.

After the owner finished serving the dishes, Xu Yufu poured the wine and said, "No matter what, you are guests here. You should still eat well, let me fulfill my duty as a host."

After Su Xinghui had a drink with Xu Yufu, he said, "Brother Xu, I have an idea. You keep looking for Weng Guoying. We'll inquire about Duan Shuangli these two days; maybe we can find a breakthrough there."

Xu Yufu pondered for a long time and said, "Your idea is not bad. Duan Shuangli is very arrogant, his evidence should be relatively easy to find, and it's easier to find a breakthrough there. However, you must be careful. Duan Shuangli is ruthless. If he knows you are investigating him, you will be in danger. Why don't you forget it, and let me investigate this matter?"

Su Xinghui said, "It's fine, Brother Xu, we will be careful. You just need to focus on finding Weng Guoying."

Xu Yufu nodded and said, "Then you must pay attention to safety!"

After finishing the meal with Xu Yufu, Su Xinghui and Zhang Bin left first. Xu Yufu had to wait a while before leaving; otherwise, if someone saw Xu Yufu eating with Su Xinghui and Zhang Bin, and someone with ulterior motives saw it, something might happen. One had to know that Xu Yufu's days in Qingxi County were also not easy.

Before Su Xinghui left the Red Sun Restaurant, Xu Yufu gave him a photo of Weng Guoying. The Weng Guoying in the photo was a middle-aged man in his forties with an upright face, leaving a very deep impression. Su Xinghui wanted this photo just in case he saw Weng Guoying on the street but didn't recognize him.

Seeing that it was getting late, Su Xinghui had Zhang Bin park the car next to a public telephone booth on the side of the road and went into the booth to take out his magnetic card to make a call. In the guesthouse, some calls were hard to make, so he could only make them in such deserted places.

Su Xinghui first called Lu Xiaoya to report that he was safe, and then called Lu Zhenghong to tell him what he had found out in Qingxi County today.

He told Lu Zhenghong these things, and Lu Zhenghong became even more worried upon hearing them. This Qingxi County was too chaotic. He didn't want Su Xinghui to take risks; this was his old Lu family's future son-in-law.

Lu Zhenghong had no son; this son-in-law was more than half a son, basically his heir. If something happened to him in Qingxi County, he wouldn't be able to bear it.

Lu Zhenghong said, "Xinghui, if the situation there is so chaotic, you'd better come back. I'll think of another way for the Qingxi County matter. I'll find a way to save your senior brother."

Su Xinghui said, "It's fine, Uncle Lu. I'll stay here for two or three more days, and I'll pay attention to safety. If I don't call you one night, that means something happened to me, and it won't be too late for you to take measures then. Besides, County Magistrate Xu and Mayor Li are looking out for me here, so nothing will happen."

Lu Zhenghong said, "Then you must be careful. Stay for at most three more days. If you can't find a result in three days, come back. I will solve this matter, and those people will all receive the punishment they deserve."

Su Xinghui agreed and hung up the phone.

The next day, Su Xinghui and Zhang Bin continued to drive around the streets. In the discussions of people on the streets and alleys, they learned about many more bad things and sins committed by county leaders like Duan Mantang and Duan Shuangli. Everything they heard made them furious.

However, they could only pretend not to care, chatting and playing chess with the common people on the roadside.

That afternoon, when Su Xinghui was driving past the Chengguanzhen Police Station in Qingxi County, Zhang Bin suddenly pointed to an old man at the entrance of the police station and said, "Xinghui, that's Jiang Chaoyang's father."

Su Xinghui glanced at the old man. The old man was about sixty years old with gray hair. He had just come out of the police station. He was bowing his head with a solemn expression. He didn't know if it was Su Xinghui's illusion, but the old man's waist seemed hunched, as if he were carrying something heavy.

Su Xinghui didn't stop the car. He continued driving forward and stopped more than a hundred meters away from the police station. Without turning his head, he watched Jiang's father in the rearview mirror. He saw Jiang's father asking pedestrians on the roadside something. After asking, he walked in the opposite direction of Su Xinghui and the others.

Su Xinghui made a U-turn and drove slowly, following Jiang's father from a distance to see where he was going. Jiang's father walked very hesitantly, asking pedestrians on the roadside two or three times along the way.

The Qingxi County town wasn't very big, and in just ten minutes, Jiang's father reached his destination. His destination was actually the Weimin Guesthouse as well, but this was normal. Jiang Chaoyang had the incident here, so Jiang's father naturally had to come here to ask about the situation.

Jiang's father knew Zhang Bin, so Su Xinghui had Zhang Bin stay in the car while he got out and entered the guesthouse gate.

As soon as he entered, Su Xinghui heard Jiang's father ask Sister Wu: "This elder sister, my son was arrested by the police in your guesthouse. Did he really solicit a prostitute? Can you tell me?"

Seeing Su Xinghui enter the door, Sister Wu's expression couldn't help but become flustered. She must have been afraid that Su Xinghui would tell Jiang's father what she said that day. If that happened, there would be trouble.

However, Su Xinghui didn't stop his steps at all. He went straight to the second floor, but he stopped at the top of the stairs on the second floor, pricking up his ears to listen to the movement on the first floor. ===== CHAPTER 1222 =====
