Chapter 1162: 46 minutes past

"Seeing Wei Guo..."

Li Xuewu stood by the windowsill, watching the Red Star Factory in the night, lost in thought.

The time had already reached 8:45 PM. If he followed the deadline he had set for himself—

that is, to catch the person before midnight and finish the interrogation before work tomorrow morning, then report the case's results to the Management Committee—

there was not much time left for him, or for the Security Section.

"Wang Zheng, do me a favor—"

Just as the corridor fell into a brief silence, Li Xuewu suddenly turned around, looked at Wang Zheng, who had been waiting for him, and said, "I want the specific locations of the big 'Wan Zhu' (gang leaders) and the old veteran leaders in the Four Nine City."

"You want to cast a wide net?" Wang Zheng was not surprised, but her tone still carried a hint of skepticism. "Do you think Seeing Wei Guo hasn't run?"

"Nine times out of ten, he is still in the city."

Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly. Right now, he really wanted to smoke a cigarette to cool down his rapidly spinning brain.

But his strong will suppressed this habit and instinct; only his expression looked somewhat unusual.

"To put it bluntly, he is still just a kid. When something happens, the first thing he thinks of is his parents."

Li Xuewu analyzed, "This personality isn't special, because his parents dote on him very much."

"Before we came, we did some research on Seeing Wei Guo and his family."

Wang Zheng nodded. After confirming Li Xuewu's thoughts, she nodded toward the people behind her.

A cadre from the Public Security Division turned around and followed Wang Yimin out to arrange the arrest operations for the people Li Xuewu had just mentioned.

For example, Zhao Weidong, Xie Qianjin, Li Yuanchao...

And for example, Zhang Jianguo, Li Zhanyuan, Wang Dahai...

"I want to create momentum throughout the city, making every tree and bush look like an enemy, so he becomes like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow, terrified and unable to live in peace."

Li Xuewu looked at Wang Zheng and said, "The big gang leaders and old veteran leaders have been brought in; what state do you think the little brats in the Four Nine City will be in?"

"As long as he is still in the city, and as long as he still intends to run, he will definitely be able to get news from this circle."

"Are you calculating against his parents?"

Wang Zheng raised an eyebrow. In her heart, Li Xuewu had always been an image of someone who could calculate.

Cooperating with him this time, this impression was considered solidified.

"Is this also called calculating?" Li Xuewu glanced at her and signaled for them to walk together; the corridor was a bit stuffy. "This can only be called a bit of strategy."

"It's quite good, more comprehensive than I thought."

Wang Zheng didn't expect him to care so much about her opinion of him, so she smiled and said, "If I were responsible for the deployment of this operation, I would definitely cast a long line to catch a big fish."

"Forget it, I don't have that kind of patience."

Li Xuewu turned his head to look at Wang Zheng beside him. This girl was only twenty, but her heart was truly ruthless.

Did you understand what she meant by her words?

What is the long line?

And who is the big fish?

Anyway, the case had already happened, so it was better to make a fuss about this case.

Since it had already been determined who committed the case, that person was the long line.

Alright, since the long line was determined, then who was the big fish?

Seeing Wei Guo's parents?

Of course they counted, but according to Wang Zheng's context and her current situation, these two people weren't enough for her to eat.

How much longer could it be?

Hey, that's hard to say!

Just say who Seeing Wei Guo contacted during the commission of the crime and his escape, and who made things convenient for him.

During the time he was hiding from arrest, who else had crooked thoughts and made unusual moves?

Needless to say, these "fish," regardless of size, would all be caught in her net.

Why?

You say Wang Zheng is young, so why are her methods and thoughts so ruthless?

First of all, this is her job, and those she targets are all criminals.

Secondly, precisely because she is young, she needs cases with great influence even more.

Cases like this, which are sure to be solved, are like delicious buns in her eyes.

As long as time and conditions permit, she can play all sorts of tricks with this case.

Don't say people are vicious, and don't say the girl is calculating; it can only be said that one's position determines one's perspective.

If you were in her position, you might be even more ruthless than her.

To go back to the point, Wang Zheng is young, and Li Xuewu is also young; doesn't he need "big fish"?

Yes, Li Xuewu's situation is different from Wang Zheng's; he now seeks stability, not speed.

He has already reached this position; how much faster can he go?

If he pushes any higher, Dong Wenxue and Li Huai De will both be in a panic.

Especially in the current situation, the stability of the Red Star Factory overrides everything.

Wang Zheng wants to use influence to consolidate her position, but he doesn't need to; his position in the Red Star Factory is very solid.

In fact, in order to advance further, he even needs to loosen his existing position.

Haven't you seen that he is gradually letting go of the Security Group's work, and letting go of the work in the three industries and trade?

When Wang Zheng came to the Red Star Factory in person, he guessed why the other party came the moment they met.

Perhaps he habitually thought he was going to use public office for private revenge and cut weeds and eliminate roots.

Perhaps he habitually thought he hated evil like an enemy and didn't mind making things bigger.

Wrong. From the moment he led her into the interrogation room, Li Xuewu had already clearly stated his attitude.

Solving cases, catching people, interrogating for merit—none of these were important to him.

Having reached this step in the Red Star Factory, he no longer needed actual credit to pave his way.

Too much is as bad as too little; if he really gave people an unchangeable impression of him, then he could only be a security cadre for the rest of his life.

If he worked until the end, he would only be a Security Group leader; what would be the point of that?

Wang Zheng also saw his attitude of not wanting to "expand the results of the battle," which is why she spoke to test him.

Including the opinion he just proposed about arresting the gang leaders and veterans, she felt Li Xuewu was acting in front of her.

Li Xuewu, who used to have such a fiery temper, how did he become an old cat now?

"How much certainty do you have that you can catch Seeing Wei Guo tonight?"

Walking out of the Security Building, the sultry heat was swept away; in the July night, there were still a few cool breezes.

Wang Zheng tidied the hair by her ear, looked at Li Xuewu under the lights, and said, "Just like you thought, a quick battle to force a quick decision."

"I have confidence in the Security Section—"

Li Xuewu smiled, didn't jump into the trap she dug, but looked back at the busyness in the hall and said confidently, "I believe they won't let me down."

"Hmm, you have a group of good soldiers."

Wang Zheng didn't think she could outsmart Li Xuewu with her tricks, but that didn't stop her from teasing the other party.

Learning leads to gains, and learning leads to application.

"Especially your Security Li Kezhang; I heard he's still a university student. You really have your ways."

"Hahaha—"

Li Xuewu chuckled for a while. Seeing that she was about to get in the car to go back, he extended an invitation: "Going back to sleep?"

"If there's nothing to do tomorrow, do you want to go see the scene with me?"

Just as Wang Zheng's driver opened the car door for her, he raised his eyebrows and said, "The Four Nine City tonight will definitely be very lively; it's a once-in-a-thousand-years opportunity."

"Is this considered a date invitation?"

Wang Zheng looked at him amusedly, signaled to her 212, and asked, "Take my car, or your car?"

"My car was driven away by Zhou Yao; she needs to use the radio."

Although Li Xuewu said this, he didn't get into Wang Zheng's car, but signaled to the Hongxing Lingyang patrol car parked at the entrance, which was the roof-removed modified version.

It was very similar to a Willys, but more luxurious than a Willys, with more adaptive accessories.

The biggest difference was the roof; the Willys had a canvas soft top, while the Hongxing Lingyang patrol car had a detachable hard top.

Right now, this Hongxing Lingyang light patrol car at the entrance was in a state with the roof removed.

"Do you want to try our factory's new car? It's much better to drive than the 212."

"No wonder those little brats look at this thing with envy—"

Wang Zheng walked around the Hongxing Lingyang jeep for half a circle, nodded to Li Xuewu, and said, "I'm tempted just looking at it."

"Then I'll let you drive it—"

Li Xuewu patted the car door, signaled to the car key in the keyhole, and turned to sit in the passenger seat.

Seeing that the leader wanted to change cars, Wang Zheng's driver jumped down to provide service, but was refused by her with a wave of her hand.

Li Xuewu invited her to go into the city to "watch a show" and "go for a ride" together; naturally, she couldn't refuse.

Moreover, this little car looked much prettier than the clumsy 212, and her hands were a bit itchy.

Of course, according to regulations, she was not allowed to drive a car during work hours.

But according to regulations, she should have been off work long ago at this time!

Therefore, just as Li Xuewu sat in the passenger seat, Wang Zheng also sat in the driver's seat with joy, like a little girl who had just received a toy.

"The car body height and seat comfort are indeed much better than the 212—"

As soon as she got on, she felt that Li Xuewu's boasting just now was not an exaggeration or an undeserved reputation.

Stepping on the clutch and brake, after starting the engine, she shifted into forward gear according to the gear diagram and lightly pressed the accelerator. The car started slowly amidst the very pleasant sound of the engine.

"Whoa, it's really quite good to drive!"

Wang Zheng was a female driver, a proper road killer; Li Xuewu had already experienced this long ago.

The reason he dared to take her car this time was because the two of them weren't going on a date.

Just looking at the several cars following them back and forth, who the hell brings a group of people on a date?

Is it a live broadcast?

Of course, everyone knew what a female driver was like.

One foot on the gas, one foot on the brake, like playing a game.

Li Xuewu was mentally prepared, but he still resisted the suggestion to change to driving it himself.

"Go back and tell Director Zheng and Director Gao that the procurement volume of ten units is too conservative."

He took the opportunity to sell the goods and instigated, "With such a good car to drive, of course, the follow-up plan should be to replace them all with Antelopes."

"While the 212 hasn't depreciated yet, ask if any units are willing to accept them, adjust some budget back, and uniformly replace them with Hongxing Lingyang cars."

"You're so bad—"

Wang Zheng turned the steering wheel, and as soon as the motorcade left the Red Star Factory gate, she overtook the car with one press of the accelerator.

After the two people's car became the lead car, she turned her head and said to Li Xuewu with a smile, "But I like it—"

"You're talking about the car, right?"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes, knowing she was deliberately teasing him.

Don't think that just because she wasn't married yet and wasn't thirty, she was a little girl who didn't understand anything.

Those with low levels could be played to death by her.

Of course, Li Xuewu had seen and experienced everything; what kind of girl hadn't he met?

These little traps, little schemes, and little ambiguities were things he had long been accustomed to.

"Hahahaha—"

Seeing that Li Xuewu didn't fall into her trap, Wang Zheng didn't feel discouraged, holding the steering wheel and stepping hard on the accelerator on the dark road.

"It's so damn refreshing—"

"Take it easy—" Li Xuewu grimaced. Just as Wang Zheng slowed down, he smiled wickedly and said, "I meant for you to shout a little quieter; howling like a ghost in the middle of the night, don't cause a misunderstanding."

Fine, this time it was Wang Zheng who fell into the pit.

"Misunderstanding what?"

Wang Zheng looked like an old driver; she turned her head, rolled her eyes, and asked with a smile, "Are you afraid of a misunderstanding being spread between you and me?"

"Hehe—"

Li Xuewu remained unmoved, sitting steadily in the passenger seat, looking ahead and saying, "A straight body is not afraid of a crooked shadow."

"You can go and ask around; in this Four Nine City, who doesn't know that I, Li Xuewu, am the most innocent and upright."

He turned his head, looked at Wang Zheng, and said, "Upright style, neither greedy nor lustful—that's me."

"Hmm, cadres before entering the Discipline Inspection Commission all like to talk like this—"

Wang Zheng rolled her eyes at him and said, "I don't think you're a good thing either."

"Hi~ don't say that—" Li Xuewu turned his head and smiled at the window, "Isn't there a good old saying: birds of a feather flock together; we're considered to be at home."

"Fine, I can't talk you down—"

Wang Zheng also knew that Li Xuewu was on the same wavelength as her brother Huang Gan when it came to idle chatter; it was a pure waste of time.

She patted the steering wheel and asked, "Your factory's car shouldn't be hard to sell, so why are you pushing it to me?"

"We aren't worried about selling, but we aren't afraid of selling!"

Li Xuewu stretched his legs, leaned back in the seat, and said, "If we can secure the order for all the cars in the branch bureau, it's not just a matter of sales."

"You're using us to advertise, right?"

Why else would one say Wang Zheng is very smart? The moment Li Xuewu's words fell, she already understood.

"This is easy to talk about. As long as your factory gives us a few units for free, I'll help you talk about it."

"De-de-de—"

Li Xuewu waved his hand impatiently and said, "Let's talk about the case; that way my losses can be a little smaller."

"Didn't run into any robbers in the middle of the night, but ran into a blackmailer."

"Hahahaha—"

Wang Zheng laughed and stepped on the accelerator, and the Hongxing Lingyang jeep disappeared into the Dongzhimen.

"No, no—"

Li Yuanchao was brought back from home in a daze to cooperate with the investigation.

Logically speaking, it wouldn't be easy to bring him out of his home.

But that was the police station; if it was the branch bureau handling the case, plus a murder case at the Red Star Factory, he was nothing.

Besides, the people from the branch bureau who went to get him didn't say they were arresting him, just inviting him back to assist in the investigation.

The words weren't very polite, but they weren't overbearing either; it was a business-like manner.

Zheng Fuhua also knew what Li Xuewu's intentions were; it was nothing more than using the influence of these little brats' parents to put pressure on Seeing Wei Guo's parents.

Just think about it: with so many big gang leaders and old veteran leaders brought back, what must their parents be thinking?

Yes, those who know, know it has nothing to do with these people.

But what about those who don't know?

They will all inquire carefully and pass the word around; it won't take long, within an hour, everyone in the Four Nine City who should know will know.

Seeing Wei Guo's parents wanting to take action and wanting to ask people for help? Keep dreaming.

Actually, this trick isn't fresh; it's an open strategy, just played with some flair; ordinary people really wouldn't think of it.

After all, ordinary people aren't as ruthless as Li Xuewu, having to borrow strength to strike when handling a case.

Fine, Seeing Wei Guo committed the mistake alone, and now all the little brats in the city are taking the blame for him.

Anyway, until Seeing Wei Guo is brought to justice, these people are all suspects, whether friends or enemies.

Only when Seeing Wei Guo is found can their suspicions be cleared; otherwise, just squat in the branch bureau.

Yes, these people were all squatting in the branch bureau; there were too many people, and there was no time to interrogate them one by one.

Only three interrogation rooms were open, with people going in one by one, while the others sat in the corridor.

You say you're not afraid of them colluding on their stories?

Hey, Li Xuewu was just afraid they wouldn't get together to ponder.

What kind of characters are these people?

These are the street-smart people of the Four Nine City; what is it that they don't know?

One person knows a little, and with so many people together, they can piece together a rough idea.

Otherwise, Wang Zheng wouldn't say Li Xuewu is both bad and ruthless; this matter should have been for investigators to visit and ask.

That is to say, the work of collecting information and news and coming back to piece it together and study it should be done by the people from the branch bureau.

If these little brats are willing to talk, fine; if they aren't, you can force them, and they still won't talk.

If you really did it that way, you wouldn't be able to piece together accurate news in three or five days.

But by then, the day lily would have gone cold; could Li Xuewu wait?

Now it's fine; these little brats are all here, and once the pressure is on, they will know how to compare notes themselves.

You know what, I know what; everyone gets together to study it, and they all curse together.

They had almost dug up Seeing Wei Guo's ancestors; it was entirely this kid who caused the trouble, making them take the blame.

That won't do!

Fine, anyway, they can't go back tonight, so everyone get busy and try to drag Seeing Wei Guo out.

They consider it venting their anger, and they also consider it clearing themselves.

Otherwise, if Seeing Wei Guo runs, this case will be half-baked, and they will be tainted with right and wrong for the rest of their lives.

Then how can they mix in the underworld in the future? Won't they be watched by the "uncles" every day?

That won't do; they can't take this loss.

Li Yuanchao lived far away, and he was the last one on the list, considered the one who could come or not.

But who told him to have a group of good brothers? Zhao Weidong, Xie Qianjin, and others had already come.

Good heavens, everyone gathered in the branch bureau hall, looking each other over.

Hey! Why didn't Li Yuanchao come?

That won't do; today's excitement is huge. Xie Qianjin said Li Yuanchao likes excitement the most.

These few bad boys calculated together and told the "uncles" that Li Yuanchao is well-connected in the city and might have some news.

Alright, it was nine or ten o'clock, and Li Yuanchao's family had already gone to bed, only to be awakened by the knocking on the door.

Just think about what kind of family his is; hearing the knocking on the door in the middle of the night, his heart jumped to his throat.

There is no knocking on the door in the middle of the night unless it's a major situation.

Today his father happened to be at home, put on his clothes and got up; hearing the guard report that they were looking for his son, his nose almost went crooked with anger.

That is, the people from the branch bureau explained it clearly, saying it was to assist in the investigation and was an emergency task; otherwise, his father would have whipped him with a belt.

Of course Li Yuanchao's father was angry, angry that the branch bureau was making a mountain out of a molehill, but he couldn't lose his temper at the comrades.

Of course, if you say they were in the same boat, it's a bit straightforward; should I say they were in the same cave? Sharing blessings?

"Is this appropriate—is this appropriate—"

Li Yuanchao had a crying face; after entering the hall and seeing Xie Qianjin and the others grinning, he knew it was these people who were playing tricks.

"You few, who the hell betrayed me!" He pointed at them and cursed, "I knew it; I'm not afraid of no good things, I'm just afraid of no good people!"

"Don't be ungrateful—"

Zhong Yuemin in the crowd raised an eyebrow and reminded him, "We're doing this for your own good!"

"Exactly, there's great excitement to watch today! You're not coming?"

Zhao Weidong smiled, squeezed into the chair, and signaled to the seat beside him, saying, "See that? Brother even saved a seat for you—"

"Just you? Just you guys?"

Since he was here, he had to be at peace with it; since people were already here, what else did Li Yuanchao have to say?

He squeezed beside Zhao Weidong and sat down, listening to them talk nonsense, and finally understood what was going on.

And so came the initial surprise and confusion.

Li Yuanchao cursed and asked, "The mess Seeing Wei Guo caused, what does it have to do with us!"

"I drive an Hongxing Lingyang, it was borrowed openly and aboveboard; what the hell does it have to do with him!"

"You're not being kind by saying that—"

Zhong Yuemin pointed at him and reminded him, "Wasn't it you who called him out, telling him if he had the ability, he should get one to compare?"

"When the hell did I ever say that!"

Li Yuanchao glared at Zhong Yuemin; the guy didn't even look at where they were; getting involved with Seeing Wei Guo, did he still want to get out?

He absolutely couldn't admit that it was Seeing Wei Guo competing with him that led him to get the car.

This case had spread this morning, and by the afternoon, everyone knew it was Seeing Wei Guo who did it.

Of course, that included him, who was well-informed.

Li Yuanchao rolled his eyes, reminded Zhong Yuemin not to talk nonsense, and then asked the crowd, "What's the situation now? Arresting overnight?"

"He can't run—"

Zhao Weidong was considered the old big brother in this circle, so his words naturally had weight.

He leaned on the wooden chair with his hands behind his head and said in a drawn-out tone, "His few brothers have already been caught."

"Pah—" Li Yuanchao said disdainfully, "This kind of person is just a rat dropping that ruins a whole pot of soup!"

"I am a good soldier of the Party, a good youth under the red flag!"

He emphasized, "I don't know what your attitude is, but to me, Seeing Wei Guo is already an enemy!"

"No need for you to pretend to be positive—"

Xie Qianjin could be considered to be feeling the same way; he knew Seeing Wei Guo couldn't run; such a big case, his life wouldn't last long.

If it's quick, he'll be shot while resisting arrest; if it's not quick, he'll be brought back, interrogated, sentenced, and then shot; it'll take at least a month, which is also a torment.

So, empathizing, they were all people in the same circle, but they wouldn't be as heartless as Li Yuanchao.

Of course, it's not to say Xie Qianjin's relationship with Seeing Wei Guo was very good; it was a kind of resonance.

Today's Seeing Wei Guo is very likely their tomorrow.

Although Li Yuanchao was in the veteran circle, he didn't play the same way as Zhao Weidong and the others.

Zhao Weidong and the others were relatively old-fashioned, liking to use their hands, liking to show off, and liking to be big brothers.

Li Yuanchao also liked to show off, but he liked to show off with strength.

In his words, coming out to play without using your brain is equivalent to wasting your life.

He relied purely on schemes, methods, and the ability to earn money to establish himself in this circle.

They were all people in the same circle and all had resources, but they just couldn't compare to his active brain.

Among the people who came today, only Li Yuanchao received an invitation from the Youth Club, which explained the problem well.

Have you ever seen a gang leader or veteran racing on the street holding a book and studying?

That's just a pig with an onion in its nose pretending to be an elephant!

Hey! Li Yuanchao could; he never missed the study activities organized by the club.

Moreover, this kid's learning ability was absolutely fine; he had potential and talent.

Zhou Xiaobai threw out an olive branch, and he was the only one who caught it, and he really made money.

Fifty per ton; if this unit ate ten tons a month, he could earn five hundred.

Five hundred yuan could buy a motorcycle!

Of course, he already had a motorcycle now, and he was preparing to save money to buy an Hongxing Lingyang car.

He had already established a relationship with Zuo Jie; at the internal price, he could buy the top-of-the-line version for only eight thousand.

Eight thousand yuan, calculated, was only 160 tons; it was half a year, and he didn't believe he couldn't earn this money.

If he really drove his own little car, he would be the top dog in this Four Nine City!

You look at him chatting with Zhao Weidong, Xie Qianjin, and the others, but in reality, they weren't on the same path.

But they were all people in the same circle, and there was no hatred; he had no hatred with anyone.

Coming here today was entirely an unprovoked disaster.

So Xie Qianjin retorted with a jab, and he didn't care in the slightest.

Zhao Weidong and the others' future ended there, but Li Yuanchao's future was bright.

If you don't learn, you fall behind; if you fall behind, you get beaten.

Look at these people in the room; weren't they beaten because they didn't learn!

"What are you doing! What are you doing!"

Seeing Wei Guo's mother came out of the house and saw that the people at the door hadn't left.

What was this? Openly tailing them? What had their house become!

"Didn't I say! I don't know where my son went—"

She rushed out and shouted at Zhou Yao, "Besides, what right do you have to determine that my son did it!"

"Can you produce evidence?"

"Don't throw a tantrum with me—"

Zhou Yao looked at her watch with a cold face and said to the people behind her, "Go in, search again."

"What are you doing! What the hell do you want to do!"

Seeing that the people from the Red Star Factory and the branch bureau were going to search their house again, Seeing Wei Guo's mother pulled her neck and cursed, "Is there no law anymore? Is there no justice anymore!"

"You shout, you shout; do you want everyone on this street to know about your family's business, right?"

Zhou Yao didn't have the shyness or timidity of a big girl at all this time; she stared at the woman throwing a tantrum and warned, "I've shown you the investigation procedures, and we've already notified the security office of your compound; don't hinder us from handling the case!"

"Is this how you handle cases!"

Seeing Wei Guo's mother's voice became much smaller; it could be seen that she was also a person who cared about face.

It was just that she still stood at the gate unconvinced and said, "You've already searched twice; what else do you want!"

"Search until Seeing Wei Guo is caught—" Zhou Yao stood there indifferently, watching the Security Section people go into the house to search, and said blandly, "If I don't catch Seeing Wei Guo, don't even think about having peace."

These words weren't just aimed at Seeing Wei Guo's mother, but also at the man standing in the foyer.

Wei Luyun, Seeing Wei Guo's father.

Wei Luyun didn't come to the gate to argue with Zhou Yao, just frowned and looked at her a few times.

Seeing these investigators enter the house, he could only follow them in.

Seeing Wei Guo was indeed not at home; if he really were at home, he would be stupid enough.

But Zhou Yao didn't intend to let them go just like that, because she had sufficient evidence to show that they had engaged in shielding behavior.

"Check, check the phone, check the relationships."

Wearing a uniform, she stood at the gate and ordered the public security officers, "Check the call records just obtained one by one."

"Use the phone here!"

Zhou Yao stared at the little western-style building in the courtyard and said, "Call back every phone call made from here and received here in the last three days, and ask clearly!"

"Yes!"

The Information Section had already come to support; receiving the Li Kezhang's order, they quickly entered the small courtyard.

Seeing Wei Guo's mother was almost going crazy, pointed at Zhou Yao and reminded her, "Do you know whose phones these are!"

"I don't know—" Zhou Yao's words hit the other party's lungs directly, "It's precisely because I don't know that I have to call back and ask."

"These words... make so much sense!"

On the street, inside the Hongxing Lingyang car, Wang Zheng smiled and said to Li Xuewu, "I like this girl."

"Thank you, I also appreciate her quite a bit."

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes, didn't give her a chance to continue, signaled to the direction of the courtyard, and emphasized, "Look at the quality of our Security Section; they have questions and answers."

"Hmm, it's indeed quite polite—"

Wang Zheng glanced at him, secretly calling him stingy, but still teased, "It's just not very popular—"

"In the middle of the night, if I were to be this polite at your house, you wouldn't welcome me either, right?"

Li Xuewu felt stuffy in the car, so he put one leg out of the car, leaned against the seat, and looked at the direction of the courtyard, saying, "It doesn't matter; they can be unwelcoming, but we must be polite."

"Hehe—"

Wang Zheng took this sentence as a joke; the Security Section people being polite was truly hilarious.

"Leader, news from the branch bureau."

Li Xuewu was just chatting with Wang Zheng when someone came from behind the car to notify him of the news from the radio on the command car.

Just now, Zhou Yao got off the car to direct the investigation and search; although she saw the Information Section people come to support, she didn't know it was Li Xuewu who led the team.

She was busy dealing with Seeing Wei Guo's mother; the door light was very bright, and she didn't notice the situation here.

And the public security officer on duty in the command car already knew Li Xuewu had come, so the news was sent here immediately.

"Zhou Yao—"

Li Xuewu turned on his flashlight, and after reading the news in his hand, he immediately shouted.

Zhou Yao turned her head suddenly; seeing several more Antelopes here and feeling it was the leader's voice, she left Seeing Wei Guo's mother and came over.

She didn't notice that upon hearing Li Xuewu's voice, Seeing Wei Guo's mother also followed.

"Are you people from the steel mill bandits!"

Before Zhou Yao could report her work, she heard someone cursing from behind.

Li Xuewu patted the car door, signaled for Zhou Yao to come over, and ignored the other party.

He didn't even pay attention to the other party's escalation, only telling Zhou Yao the news Wang Zheng was looking at in a low voice.

After Zhou Yao heard it clearly, her expression changed, and she loudly signaled to gather, and everyone boarded the cars and left.

Seeing Wei Guo's mother, who was still cursing at Li Xuewu, changed color; she seemed to know something.

Even seeing Li Xuewu's triumphant wicked smile, she was powerless to curse again; watching the investigators run out of the house quickly and watching the cars start and leave, her heart began to panic.

There were six in total; now four were caught, and only Seeing Wei Guo and "Tiger" were left. You say, what are these people gathering to do?

"You really have your ways—"

Wang Zheng punched Li Xuewu lightly with her fist, smiled, started the car, and asked, "How did you determine there was a situation here?"

"Also, how were you sure those gang leaders and veterans could find Seeing Wei Guo?"

"Hehe, want to know?"

Li Xuewu looked at his watch; having a bottom line in his heart, he also had a playful mind regarding Wang Zheng's question.

"Call me 'good brother' and let me hear it, and I'll tell you."

"Virtue—"

Wang Zheng was older than Li Xuewu; could she call him brother?

"I'm reminding you, they're following behind."

"I know—"

Li Xuewu didn't turn his head to look; their car was considered the last to start and leave.

After all, they weren't frontline arrest personnel anymore, and he had to leave room for Zhou Yao and the Security Team to perform.

Wang Zheng's thought was the same; big shots always appear last.

Therefore, when a jeep drove out of Seeing Wei Guo's house and tailed their motorcade, Li Xuewu already understood.

Don't say he was insidious this time; it was the other party who took the bait themselves.

"That person named Tong Yan, we investigated him heavily, but didn't find anything unusual?"

"Dark under the lamp; they were playing exactly this hand, wanting to play the time difference."

Li Xuewu smoothed the hair scattered by the night wind, leaned back in the seat, and said, "During the time you went to investigate, Seeing Wei Guo hadn't gone there yet."

"You mean..." Wang Zheng turned her head to look at him and asked, "During the whole day, Seeing Wei Guo was at home?"

"No, he could receive news at any time, could move and hide, and could even run away at any time." Li Xuewu turned his head, looked at Wang Zheng, and asked with a smile, "Where do you think he is?"

"Hehe, he's really old and cunning—"

Wang Zheng curled her lips and asked, "Do you think this idea was thought up by his parents?"

"That's not important; I just want to catch Seeing Wei Guo now. As long as he is in my hands..."

Li Xuewu's voice gradually weakened, but the momentum of his words gradually increased.

Once in his hands, what else could happen? None of them would be able to run.

His parents' shielding and joint criminal activities—even if they had several heads, no amount of merit could offset it.

Her brother Huang Gan once said that Li Xuewu was the most capable at farm work.

Like sheep-stealing, following the vine to find the melon, cutting weeds and eliminating roots—he was the most skilled.

"Whoa—"

When Li Xuewu's car arrived at the destination, the action had already begun here.

"Your factory's special service is indeed more professional—"

Wang Zheng stood by the car, arms crossed, appreciating the Red Star Factory Security Team's assault arrest operation.

The manpower she brought was limited, and there was more support from the organization.

Or to put it bluntly, they were just here to watch the excitement.

Anyway, Li Xuewu didn't intend to make things big, so she didn't need to be a villain in vain.

Zhou Yao stood in front of the command car; on the hood was a simplified map quickly marked by reconnaissance personnel.

She had already made arrangements for the assault arrest in the shortest possible time, surrounding it from front, back, left, and right.

To prevent Seeing Wei Guo from jumping over the wall in desperation, and to guard against him preparing thermal weapons and other extreme situations, the factory security team was armed to the teeth.

The assault team was in groups of three, each group covered by a bulletproof steel shield; the sniper team had already climbed to the top of the highest nearby building, just waiting for the flashbang to go off to support the assault team.

Everything was ready; under Zhou Yao's order, the assault team squatting at the foot of the wall quickly rushed into the building.

Things had reached this step; it could basically be determined that the target was in this building.

Because the reconnaissance personnel fed back that a car was found nearby.

This was also what Li Xuewu didn't say just now: where Seeing Wei Guo hid during the day.

He was hiding in the car; this car had been driving around the city, ready to run at any time.

Just think about it: who the hell could have thought this kid was hiding in a moving space? Where could they find him?

"You can't do this!"

The operation started, but Seeing Wei Guo's mother suddenly rushed out of the car.

She shouted loudly, wanting to run over to block the assault team, wanting to warn Seeing Wei Guo upstairs.

Zhou Yao's reaction speed was truly fast; her position was right in the middle of the road, and she turned around and rushed over.

Seeing Wei Guo's mother had just shouted a few times when she saw Zhou Yao in front of her; she thought the other party was going to argue with her, but didn't expect...

Slap—

This slap was crisp and loud, directly stunning her.

You think this was the end? No—

Zhou Yao's grappling was learned from the special service; it was proper grappling, full of wrestling skills.

Seeing Wei Guo's mother hadn't reacted yet; she wanted to use her hand to touch her face, but immediately felt herself flying up.

Actually, it was just an illusion for a moment; soon she felt her whole body hit the ground.

Yes, her whole body was lying flat on the ground; Zhou Yao was riding on her, putting handcuffs on her.

Her mouth was already too swollen to shout, and she was stunned by the fall; even when gunshots came from upstairs, she didn't react.

It was only after a while, seeing three people in the building being brought out one after another with their heads covered and their waists bent, that she thought about standing up.

Could she stand up? Try standing up from the ground with your hands behind your back; it would tire you to death.

"Leader, mission accomplished; the last two criminals have been brought to justice."

After handling the scene, Zhou Yao watched the people being escorted into the car and leaving, then came to Li Xuewu to salute and report.

Li Xuewu pointed at the woman wailing on the ground over there and reminded her, "Do a good job with the aftermath."

"Uh—Leader—"

Zhou Yao hesitated and chased after him, also looking at Wang Zheng meaningfully, and reported to Li Xuewu in a "low voice": "Shouldn't this kind of shielding and interference with law enforcement be handled by the branch bureau?"

"Hmm—that makes sense!"

Li Xuewu nodded, looked at Zhou Yao with gratification, and said, "You guys work hard and help Director Wang send the people to the branch bureau."

"Oh, by the way—"

In Wang Zheng's eyes that wanted to curse, he added, "I see Wei Luyun also has suspicions, so don't trouble Director Wang; you guys make another trip, work hard!"

"A family should be neat and tidy!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Yao saluted cleanly, saluted Wang Zheng again, and then got busy.

Wang Zheng shouted at her back, "Zhou Yao, I don't like you anymore! I'm telling you—"

After shouting, she turned around, poked Li Xuewu, who was laughing secretly, and glared at him, pouting, "Why are you so bad—"

"This was taught by you!" Wang Zheng pushed Li Xuewu and complained, "I worked hard half the night to help you, and this is how you repay me?"

"Hey! Hey! Don't be ungrateful!"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes and said meaningfully, "Just because I don't like it doesn't mean it's trash."

"If you need operational support, contact Zhou Yao!"

After saying that, without waiting for Wang Zheng to make a scene again, he jumped into the jeep, started it, and left.
