Chapter 753: See at Dawn
"Who are you looking for?"
"Where is your station chief?"
The officer on duty in the inverted room at the entrance of Jiaodaokou Station looked at the visitor.
Gray top, black pants, leather sandals on his feet; he looked like a person of some standing.
The officer on duty didn't dare to talk nonsense, only drooped his eyelids and replied: "Today is Saturday, the station chief is on rotation and has gone back to his hometown to visit relatives."
"What?!"
The visitor frowned, looked at the officer on duty in the small window; the light in the gatehouse was naturally not as bright as the one in the duty room, and he could see the officer's expression clearly.
"When did he leave?"
"Comrade, who are you?"
The officer on duty saw that he was asking so much, and he was also a bit unhappy; he kept his hand on the holster at his waist and stared back at the visitor.
"From the branch bureau, have something to ask your station chief."
The visitor's attitude was still generally tough, but his hands were very well-behaved on the windowsill, and he asked again: "You said when did your station chief leave?"
The officer on duty looked at the visitor; he seemed to have some impression, but he didn't know what this person did at the branch bureau.
However, the doubt in his heart remained, and the suspicion that his identity was improper had already vanished.
"He left before getting off work; he said he had to go up the mountain and had already asked the leader for leave."
After saying this, the officer on duty sat back down; he had to be on duty for half the night, and he didn't want to consume any more energy.
The visitor frowned and looked at him; he didn't look like he was lying, and he looked into the quiet courtyard again, saying: "Where are the people from your station? Where was the case handled?"
"What case?"
The officer on duty raised his eyebrows, paused with the cigarette box in his hand, looked at the visitor outside the small window with amusement, and said: "Do you think we look like we have a case right now?"
The visitor also felt the same way, because there wasn't even a car in the courtyard, and it was likely that there was no one in the office row either; the rest should be in the duty dormitory.
But this didn't match the news he received; someone reported that it was Jiaodaokou Station that led the arrest, so where did everyone go?
Could it be that they flew to the sky or entered the earth?
This person also knew that he wouldn't get an answer without revealing his identity, so he reached into his top pocket, took out an ID, and showed it to the officer on duty in the small window: "From the Public Security Section, where is your leader on duty?"
"Yo, it's a leader, you should have said so earlier."
This officer on duty was also a slick one, at least his tongue was nimble; he stood up and handed the cigarette box toward the window, then felt that the small window was truly unseemly, and retracted it under the visitor's slightly narrowed gaze.
"Our deputy station chief on duty led a team to squat at a stakeout; a few days ago, some old ladies reported that someone was running around the street at night, so..."
The officer raised his hand and gestured to the courtyard, saying: "The vehicles were all ridden away."
"Bicycles?"
The visitor raised his eyebrows, only feeling that the officer's mouth didn't have a single accurate word.
"Fine, good kid!"
"Take it slow, watch out for the dark road~"
The officer on duty saw the person leave the main gate, stared with his eyes, left the duty room, and followed the person to the main gate until he got into the car and left.
"Pah!"
The officer spat a mouthful of saliva, then curled his lips, and muttered disdainfully: "I wondered who it was; it turns out to be a mangy dog."
This was a nickname; there wouldn't be anyone really named Mangy Dog.
It was dark outside just now, and the person was against the light with his head down, so he hadn't seen clearly for a moment.
Once he saw the person reveal his ID, he knew it was Lai Shanhe.
Calling himself from the Public Security Section, bullshit; he was just a temporary assistant.
What is called "one person attains the Dao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven"? This Lai Shanhe is that chicken and dog.
Lai Shanhe, you can tell from this name who he is relying on, especially since he is using the banner of the Public Security Section to discuss clan brothers with Lai Lai Shanchuan.
It's just that these clan brothers are already many branches away, but he can't stand that this Lai Shanhe knows how to curry favor.
Lai Shanhe himself is a loafer who is ignorant and incompetent; it was only after he found a way to run errands for Lai Lai Shanchuan that he got the status of a temporary assistant.
In fact, what is a temporary assistant? It's a reserve force, not even as powerful as the security guards in a large factory, and they only get subsidies.
Why is he called a mangy dog? It's because he knows how to wag his tail when he sees his master, and he knows how to bite when his master yells.
With such a character, could he still get the high regard of the regular officers at the station?
It's just because there is such a relationship; if there weren't that relationship, he would have been skinned long ago for the things he did.
The officer saw that the person had really left, so he returned to the duty room, looked out the window, and then picked up the phone and dialed out.
"Hello, I'm Xiao Gao from Jiaodaokou Station, is our Station Chief Xing there?... Hey~"
The phone waited for a while, and the officer heard Xing Xing Yichun answer on the other end, so he hurriedly reported: "Station Chief Xing, Mangy Dog just came, asking about the operation and your whereabouts."
"I know, I didn't say anything; what kind of thing is he? Could I even bother with him?"
"Understood, very clear; don't worry, no matter who comes tonight, it'll be this set of lines~"
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Gao raised his eyebrows, took out the cigarette box, put one in his mouth, lit it, squinted his eyes and exhaled, and then sat back down.
Could he not know what Station Chief Xing and the others were doing tonight? He was the one on duty; if Xing Xing Yichun didn't tell others, he had to tell him the direction of the operation, otherwise, if something really happened, Xing Xing Yichun would have to take responsibility.
However, it was precisely because Xiao Gao was trustworthy that he was arranged to be on duty. No one outside could get in tonight, and no one in the courtyard could get out; even the phone lines were cut by him, and only the one in the duty room at the gate could be used.
And don't say there are no outsiders at the station; as long as it's a unit, hearts will never be one.
It was just him; if the situation right in front of his eyes wasn't so clear, would he risk playing with a mangy dog?
Why say he can see the situation clearly?
It's not that he has much talent or vision, but the matter is just laid out on the table.
Where is this Jiaodaokou Station?
It's right under the nose of the branch bureau, but it's also right next to the Public Security Brigade.
In terms of external relations, Captain Shen is one aspect, the original Station Chief Li is another, and plus the current Station Chief Ji, the connections are even harder.
It's a relative relationship with Station Chief Li, and there is a background at home; Lai Lai Shanchuan counts for a fart!
In terms of internal relations, there are more than thirty people in Jiaodaokou Station, and which one wasn't brought up by Captain Shen? There are people who were taught hand-in-hand, so who is close and who is distant?
Ji Ji Yuxiu used to be a person at the station; although she was a little girl, her professional ability was only that much in logistics, but you can't deny that her other abilities are strong.
Just one item, interpersonal relationships; take anyone out from the station, and which one can compare to Ji Ji Yuxiu's?
This thing is truly useful when you say it's useful; if you say it's useless, it can only mean you also have connections.
But this station chief position of Ji Ji Yuxiu was decided by Bureau Chief Zheng, and Old Xing was promoted to deputy station chief to help; it looks like Old Xing will be in charge of external affairs and Station Chief Ji will be in charge of internal affairs, so the opportunity to make contributions and receive awards has arrived.
A station chief who doesn't go out for fieldwork, doesn't steal credit, and can smooth things over from above—who doesn't love that?
You say there's no one looking for trouble?
How could there not be? Isn't there one right in front of our eyes?
Those who came to inspect all said that Jiaodaokou's control wasn't strict and the case-solving efforts weren't enough; now let you see if it's enough.
Xiao Gao didn't go to the scene, and he didn't know how many were caught, but just from the high-spirited tone of Station Chief Xing on the phone just now, he knew that this net would definitely be enough for a certain person to suffer.
We didn't want to manage these things originally, but since Section Chief Lai said so, we have to do this job.
As for whose child was caught, that has nothing to do with us; it was all requested by Section Chief Lai.
Why didn't Mangy Dog linger here after receiving the news? It was because people were about to come here; if he were blocked here, who knows what words would spread.
Sure enough, before Xiao Gao finished puffing on his cigarette, noisy sounds came from the gate.
Fortunately, everyone knew the influence, so they didn't come in the unit's cars; if a pile of cars really blocked the main gate, the people in this alley wouldn't say anything, but by tomorrow morning, everyone in the whole street would know what happened at the station.
"Xiao Gao, you're on duty."
"Hey! Aunt, why are you here?"
As soon as Xiao Gao saw the visitor, he hurriedly put out the cigarette in his hand, walked out, and incidentally tidied the gun at his waist.
She wasn't his biological aunt, but from the Equipment Section of the branch bureau; because she knew his father and this wasn't a formal occasion, he had to call her Aunt.
"Xiao Gao, where are the people from your station?"
Many people poured into the gatehouse, but seeing the woman standing in front talking, the others also looked into the courtyard and didn't rush in rashly.
They were all veterans, and they knew this principle; if the station was handling a case, if they really went in and something happened, it wouldn't be clear.
Therefore, everyone still stood calmly in the gatehouse waiting for Xiao Gao to speak.
Xiao Gao looked at these people who poured in, was stunned in feigned surprise, then looked at the woman and said: "This... what is this for?"
"You don't know?"
The woman looked anxious, looked at Xiao Gao, and didn't have time to mess around with him, saying straight to the point: "Your station has a mission today, right? Where are the people? Where did they all go?"
"Have... a mission?"
"Yes, there is a mission!"
Xiao Gao asked a question first, then nodded, and said amidst the expectant gazes of the crowd: "Our Station Chief Xing led a team, three people in total, out to squat at a stakeout."
After saying this, he pulled the woman and whispered: "But the old ladies in the alley said there were people touching the walls, are you here for...?"
"What touching the walls!"
Someone couldn't hold back and said to Xiao Gao: "Where is Xing Xing Yichun? Where did he go?"
"Didn't I just say he led a team to squat at a stakeout!"
Xiao Gao saw that the person was impolite, so he also got angry and said sternly: "Today Station Chief Xing is on night shift; for the past few days, old ladies have been complaining that someone was running around the alley at night, so he was asked to go see at night."
"Isn't that it!"
Xiao Gao shook his hand and said to the crowd: "He left with people as soon as it got dark at night, saying he wouldn't leave until he caught the person, and he had to stay until his eyes were red."
"Aunt! Don't force me to make a mistake!"
Xiao Gao looked at the woman again and asked with a frown: "Are you here for those alley runners?"
"Xiao Gao, no~"
The woman pulled Xiao Gao's arm, glared at those people to keep them from talking nonsense, and asked Xiao Gao: "So, Xing Xing Yichun hasn't returned since he went out at night?"
"You ask this..."
Xiao Gao let go and gestured to the pitch-black courtyard and the house where only the gatehouse was lit, and asked back: "Do you think this looks like there's anyone here?"
After saying this, he frowned again: "Lai Shanhe from the Public Security Section came just now, said some things vaguely, and then left."
"Lai Shanhe?"
The woman widened her eyes, looked at Xiao Gao and asked: "What did Lai Shanhe say?"
"This..."
Xiao Gao hesitated, looked at the crowd at the gate, then pulled the woman and whispered: "Just asked if the operation went smoothly; I didn't understand it either. How did he know Station Chief Xing went to squat at a stakeout? What does this have to do with him~"
"It has a lot to do with it!"
The man who had just gotten angry with Xiao Gao cursed: "Damn it! It turns out this bastard is the one making trouble; Xing Xing Yichun might have been used as a gun."
"What do you mean?"
The woman hadn't understood what was going on yet; the man stood still, and outside the main gate, he said angrily: "How can you still not understand? People are at odds with this side, let his son make trouble inside, lure people from this side to catch people, so that they can get us all to come here to ask for people!"
"Ah!"
The woman obviously understood; it was a trick of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf.
Using the old ladies with small feet to lure the reckless Xing Xing Yichun to catch people, his son acted as an insider, deliberately putting all their children inside, wanting to lure all their anger to this side.
Truly sinister!
The woman also frowned; everyone had heard that Lai Lai Shanchuan and Jiaodaokou were at odds, and it was actually Lai Lai Shanchuan at odds with Li Li Xuewu, which everyone in the bureau had heard of.
But you are at odds, don't drag us into the water, damn it; this is not something a human would do.
Especially the things they did tonight; this is ruining their children's future.
No, this matter must be resolved today; if that reckless Xing Xing Yichun really makes this an ironclad case, there will truly be no room for maneuver.
Every grievance has its source, every debt has its debtor; this matter still has to be taken to Lai Lai Shanchuan.
Don't think that just because you are the head of the Public Security Section, you can cover the sky with one hand; these people bundled together could drown him with their spit.
Actually, there is a question about this matter: Lai Lai Shanchuan is not stupid, he wouldn't use his son as bait.
But this is the mentality of being reluctant to let the child go, so you can't catch the wolf.
They have already thought of this; since they all know about tonight's matter, can they still let Xing Xing Yichun continue?
If Xiao Gao hadn't told them that Lai Shanhe had been here, would they have known that Lai Lai Shanchuan was involved?
It's just that they felt everyone was on the same boat, and felt that Lai Lai Shanchuan was also a person being schemed against.
If it really develops like this, in the end, these people will truly have a grudge against Jiaodaokou Station; even if the children are picked up without anything happening, what kind of impression will they have of Jiaodaokou Station?
Can they let this case continue?
Definitely not; since it can't continue, Lai Lai Shanchuan's son will also be fine.
This was all calculated by Old Lai; his son would at most be screened inside, and in the end, he would come out with their children.
Finally, they and Jiaodaokou Station would be in opposition, and he could sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
This is very much in line with Lai Lai Shanchuan's style of doing things; this person is sinister.
It's just that he didn't calculate that Xiao Gao would tell them these things.
"Xiao Gao, Aunt has noted today's matter; come to Aunt's house to eat meat tomorrow when you're free."
The woman's gnashing teeth appearance made Xiao Gao not dare to go to their house to eat meat; don't tell me she wants to eat his meat?
"Aunt, what is this...?"
Xiao Gao sent them to the main gate, scratched his head and asked: "I'm confused; what exactly is going on? Our Station Chief Xing really went to squat at a stakeout; what does this operation have to do with you?"
"Alright, Xiao Gao, don't worry about this!"
The woman had already pushed her bike, waved at Xiao Gao and said: "Today, just pretend we never came; go to work, do whatever you need to do."
After saying this, she waved at the crowd and said: "Go, let's be guests at Lai's house tonight; we have to go beg for mercy, otherwise they will really pinch our soft spot."
Good heavens, this is the first batch, and there are more arriving; they anxiously inquired with each other, and seeing these people explain, they all followed the woman's bicycle and rode back.
It's useless to go to Jiaodaokou Station; the people aren't there, maybe they were sent somewhere else; either they are at the Public Security Brigade, or they are at the First Detention Center. They don't want to look for them anymore, so they'll just go to Lai Lai Shanchuan's house and wait.
The Public Security Brigade isn't a place they can go to knock on the door; the people standing guard at that gate aren't from the Public Security Brigade, so if they go to ask for people at this time, they'll just be waiting to get cold stares.
It's even more impossible to go to the First Detention Center, because the First Detention Center isn't under their unit's jurisdiction at all; it's under the Judicial Station, two different systems.
Anyway, they are "clear" about the ins and outs of this matter, so let Section Chief Lai handle it.
Whether it's the "behind-the-scenes planner" Lai Lai Shanchuan, or Xing Xing Yichun who is handling the case, as long as they know the background of those children, this matter must be handled internally.
Xing Xing Yichun is a reckless man, but this case will eventually have to be reviewed by the branch bureau, and it will eventually be sent to Lai Lai Shanchuan here.
They are just waiting to see, to see how Lai Lai Shanchuan writes this pen.
The biggest possibility is that Xing Xing Yichun won't send it up, because he will "discover" that this is a mine, a trap "deliberately" set by Lai Lai Shanchuan for him.
Xing Xing Yichun is trapped; if he doesn't handle it, with Lai Lai Shanchuan watching, this is a big mistake.
But if he handles it, he will offend everyone, and from now on, Jiaodaokou Station won't have any peace.
They have realized that it is Lai Lai Shanchuan who is holding them hostage to negotiate with Li Li Xuewu, wanting to make Li Li Xuewu bow his head.
But why!
Li Li Xuewu doesn't care about this little matter of the Public Security Brigade at all; he is also the director of the Security Section of the large factory, which everyone knows.
Why should he bow his head to you, Lai Lai Shanchuan!
Let it be; at worst, he won't mix in the branch bureau, what can you do to him?
Li Li Xuewu doesn't care, but they care; these are their children.
Why use them as bargaining chips? This Lai Lai Shanchuan truly deserves to die.
"Open the door! Is Section Chief Lai home! Open the door!"
The courtyard where Lai Lai Shanchuan lives is not big, a single-entry courtyard, which is very common in the East City.
The wooden main gate was knocked "bang bang," and it really wasn't just one person calling for the door.
Lai Shanhe, who was reporting inside, was startled and reached out to pull out his large Type 54 pistol.
"What are you doing!"
Lai Lai Shanchuan frowned and glared at Lai Shanhe, then waved at his wife sitting on the sofa who was anxious, signaling her to go into the room.
"Put it away!"
He scolded Lai Shanhe again, then raised his hand to gesture toward the main gate and said: "Go see who it is."
"Who else could it be~"
Lai Shanhe raised his eyebrows and said: "I said we don't need to worry; there are people more anxious than us. This matter doesn't need us to show our faces at all; just them alone can settle this matter."
After saying this, the panicked look had disappeared, replaced by a confident expression as he looked at his big brother: "You just watch; these people are definitely here to beg you for mercy, asking you to go to Jiaodaokou to ask for people!"
"Go open the door quickly; do I need you to teach me how to do things?!"
Lai Lai Shanchuan naturally knew this principle; he rolled his eyes at Lai Shanhe and waved his hand, looking very impatient.
His wife was anxious, but he wasn't; he made a phone call to Lai Shanhe to inquire about this matter.
Just as his cousin said, he must be positive; he cannot make mistakes. If his son has an accident, then handle it according to official business.
He doesn't believe Xing Xing Yichun dares to handle it like this!
I don't know who gave Xing Xing Yichun this idea, or if Ji Ji Yuxiu did it voluntarily; anyway, it doesn't look like Li Li Xuewu's style.
This isn't a dog jumping over a wall in a hurry; catching everyone in one net, he was truly pinched by his soft spot, but with this net, Li Li Xuewu won't be able to mix in the branch bureau.
This matter looks like Ji Ji Yuxiu made the decision on her own, completely acting on impulse; to him, it's not a matter.
Ji Ji Yuxiu is helping herself!
Lai Lai Shanchuan thought to himself, picked up his teacup and straightened his posture, looking exactly like a personification of justice, upright and unyielding.
When a group of people poured into the courtyard, Lai Lai Shanchuan knew it was time for his performance!
"Yo, Section Chief Lai, you're still in the mood to drink tea~"
"Oh! It's Section Chief Liu."
Lai Lai Shanchuan seemed to have just discovered the crowd, stood up and greeted them, signaling everyone to come in and sit.
The crowd looked at each other, not knowing what kind of ghost he was playing, but they all entered the room.
This living room couldn't hold so many people, so many stood in the room watching the few people sitting on the sofa talking.
"I say, Comrade Liu Fengzhi, the matter is very sudden."
Lai Lai Shanchuan looked at Liu Liu Fengzhi with heartache and said: "Look, I just received the news, I really..."
As he spoke, he covered his face with his hand and said: "Truly have no face to see people, a wicked son~"
Liu Liu Fengzhi was Xiao Gao's aunt, the woman who had been analyzed clearly just now.
Watching Lai Lai Shanchuan's performance now, she became interested, gave the crowd an "as expected" look, and then looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan.
The crowd looked at each other, and they all understood the meaning in each other's eyes, and they all looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan sitting on the sofa, still performing, with meaningful gazes.
They weren't in a hurry either; since they were here, there had to be a procedure for how to solve the matter, and the account had to be settled clearly.
"Hi, who says it isn't."
Liu Liu Fengzhi was good at acting; at this time, she cooperated with Lai Lai Shanchuan, and also said helplessly: "We have no other way; the children have made such a mess, who doesn't have no face."
"But this matter is strange!"
Liu Liu Fengzhi looked at the crowd and raised her eyebrows, saying meaningfully: "Usually the children are a bit noisy, but it's not out of line; how did it become like this today?"
"There must be a problem!"
"Right!"
"There must be a problem!"
The crowd in the room nodded in unison: "Our children weren't like this before; someone must have led them."
"They are all still children!"
Liu Liu Fengzhi looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan and said: "You say, how sinister is this person? This is ruining their future!"
Lai Lai Shanchuan laughed secretly while listening to the crowd; scold, scold, the fiercer they scold, the more it means they hate Jiaodaokou and Li Li Xuewu.
"Sigh~ things have come to this, what else can I say~"
Lai Lai Shanchuan sighed helplessly, spread his hands to the crowd and said: "You all know my own child, but now what's the use of saying these things, it can only be..."
"Section Chief Lai, it's not good to really just..."
Liu Liu Fengzhi raised her eyebrows and looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan, asking in feigned panic: "Can't you show your face and coordinate? After all, you are the head of public security, right?"
This final "right" was said to the crowd in the room, but at this time, everyone stopped talking and just stared at Lai Lai Shanchuan.
Lai Lai Shanchuan didn't know what was wrong with these people; they were talking about business, why were they staring at him!
"This... sigh~"
Lai Lai Shanchuan said helplessly: "You all know, I just inspected Jiaodaokou's work last week, and now such a thing happened; what do you say I can do?"
After saying this, he hammered his right hand with his left hand, very angrily and unwillingly, and said: "It can only be handled according to official business; let Jiaodaokou Station handle it."
Watching Lai Lai Shanchuan really play this "Little Zhuge Liang weeping to behead Ma Su" drama, the crowd understood that this Lai Lai Shanchuan was really following their analysis.
It turns out he really used them as sticks, pointing out the contradiction with Jiaodaokou Station, and now forcing them to coordinate themselves, so he could sit at home and act as a righteous person.
"Leaders, leaders, leaders~"
At this time, Lai Shanhe came out, saw that his brother had finished performing, and was turning his head, showing his side face, looking like he had no face to see people, knowing it was his turn to go on stage.
"I'll say one thing; you are all old relationships with my brother, so you naturally know his character; it's impossible for him to do something against his principles for Lai Yide."
Lai Shanhe said angrily: "After listening to the leaders' analysis just now, I know someone is playing tricks inside; the children are good children, something must have gone wrong somewhere."
After saying this, he walked forward a few steps, got a satisfied look from his brother, and raised his eyebrows again: "If you ask me, this matter still has to be handled by ourselves."
"Shanhe, you say, how should this matter be handled?"
Liu Liu Fengzhi seemed to have truly lost her backbone; seeing Lai Shanhe speak, she took the initiative to ask.
Lai Shanhe didn't notice the gazes of the crowd in the room and said triumphantly: "If you ask me, you should go find Li Li Xuewu; this matter was definitely instigated by him; the one who acted was Shen Fang; find Li Li Xuewu, and you will definitely..."
"Shanhe! What kind of bullshit are you talking about!"
Lai Lai Shanchuan seemed to have just heard his brother say this, cursed a few times, and then explained to the crowd: "Don't listen to his nonsense; this matter might have someone else behind it; what does it have to do with Deputy Section Chief Li?"
Liu Liu Fengzhi raised her eyebrows, looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan and said: "Section Chief Lai, it's already at this point, there's no need to hide it anymore~"
"Right, Big Brother!"
Lai Shanhe really didn't hear the meaning in Liu Liu Fengzhi's words, and echoed: "It's already at this point, do you really want to watch Lai Yide have an accident?!"
Lai Lai Shanchuan noticed; Lai Shanhe didn't notice, but Lai Lai Shanchuan did. Liu Liu Fengzhi's expression wasn't quite right, and the expressions of the others in the room weren't quite right either.
To say that this matter had reached this point, the context was already very clear; it was Li Li Xuewu taking revenge for personal reasons, and everyone should have been filled with righteous indignation to go find Li Li Xuewu to ask for an explanation.
However, one by one, they were standing here, looking at him with slanted eyebrows and staring eyes; what was going on?
Hehe! Actually, these people had already shown strange expressions when Lai Shanhe was performing.
It was just that he was acting upright and unyielding, looking like he had no face to see people, so he couldn't see the expressions of these people, so he hadn't discovered the strangeness.
Now he sensed something was wrong; listening to his cousin still nagging and forcing him to take a defensive role to stimulate the emotions of the crowd, so as to set off his own integrity.
Stop acting, the truth is revealed!
Lai Lai Shanchuan glared at his brother, but this glare was understood by Lai Shanhe as his brother's superb acting, truly showing an angry appearance.
"Big Brother, you can't ignore this matter; even if you don't think about Lai Yide, you have to think about everyone."
"Right~ Section Chief Lai~"
Liu Liu Xiuzhi looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan meaningfully, squinted her eyes and said: "You have to think about all of us."
Lai Lai Shanchuan's nostrils suddenly started breathing heavily; he knew why these people were all in this state and expression—it turns out they truly thought this matter was arranged by him.
No!
It really wasn't!
It really wasn't me!
Who would believe it?!
No one believed it!
Lai Lai Shanchuan knew that no one would believe his words now, because of the stereotype; these people all felt that it was arranged by him. There must be some link here that was made into a solid hammer by someone; there must be.
To make these people believe that he did this, there were only a few points. He wanted to find these suspicious points now to talk about, but would these people give him this time and opportunity?
Moreover, he had just made a mistake, and this set of performances truly confirmed his suspicion.
Damn it! Fell into the trap!
This was absolutely not a trap set by Ji Ji Yuxiu; that little girl didn't leave early or late, but happened to go back to her hometown tonight; it must be Li Li Xuewu who was afraid she would be implicated and sent her away.
Don't ask about this trap; damn it, it's Li Li Xuewu!
He was still nagging and performing here, and he performed right into Li Li Xuewu's trap. It couldn't be more coincidental to invite people to cooperate; the matter is truly difficult to handle.
Listening to his cousin still nagging and forcing him, Lai Lai Shanchuan went up and gave his brother a big slap.
"Pah!"
This slap truly stunned Lai Shanhe.
Big Brother, we agreed on the performance; you don't have to be so involved, right?
You act your part, why the hell are you hitting me!
However, Lai Lai Shanchuan was his heaven; whatever Big Brother said was what it was. If he wanted to add a martial arts scene today, he had to take it.
Lai Shanhe covered his face and hid out, leaving space for Lai Lai Shanchuan and the crowd to talk.
Liu Liu Xiuzhi "hummed," knowing it was time to show their cards; Lai Lai Shanchuan must not be able to act anymore and was angry from embarrassment.
"Section Chief Lai, we are truly old relationships, old comrades-in-arms."
Liu Liu Xiuzhi looked at the crowd, and after getting their support, looked at Lai Lai Shanchuan again and said: "We don't want to understand the contradictions between you, and we don't want to participate."
"You were in the Public Security Section and we didn't hinder you, and we didn't delay your business; there's no reason to ruin our business!"
"Right! Lai Lai Shanchuan, if you have the ability, play some open schemes, don't play dirty tricks!"
"Exactly, playing them on us, you aren't afraid of being poked in the spine~"
"There's truly no such thing; no matter what, you shouldn't use children as bargaining chips."
"Exactly, they are all children!"
"You are willing to use your own son to catch a wolf, but don't use our children as bait."
There were many people in the room; although no one had a higher status than Lai Lai Shanchuan, a room full of people added together couldn't be refuted by Lai Lai Shanchuan.
Especially at this moment, when they talked about comrades-in-arms, there was no such thing as rank; if he really used children to make trouble, they wouldn't show any mercy.
Things had come to this, and Lai Lai Shanchuan knew that no matter what he explained, these people wouldn't listen; all the ugly words had been said, so he had no need to perform being upright and unyielding anymore.
"I'll only say one thing."
Lai Lai Shanchuan ignored the crowd's noise, raised his hand to the crowd and said: "If this matter was done by me, there would truly be no opportunity for you to come find me, and I wouldn't be sitting at home letting you find me."
"Listen to me finish!"
Seeing the crowd about to make noise again, Lai Lai Shanchuan frowned and waved his hand, saying: "Today I admit defeat; not for my son, but for everyone, I will go admit defeat to Li Li Xuewu, and this matter will definitely give you an explanation."
"Should have done this earlier!"
"Humph~"
Lai Lai Shanchuan's words didn't bring sympathy or suspicion from the crowd; they only felt that Lai Lai Shanchuan was still putting on a show, still acting.
Liu Liu Xiuzhi didn't care about this and raised her eyebrows: "Section Chief Lai, don't say we misunderstood you; this matter doesn't involve us at all. Anyway, you and Li Li Xuewu are superiors and subordinates; this knot will eventually have to be untied by you."
Lai Lai Shanchuan nodded, picked up his handbag from the side of the sofa with a face full of frost, stood up and walked out, saying to his wife who walked out of the bedroom as he walked: "If Lai Yide comes back, let him reflect at home; he is not allowed to go anywhere."
After saying this, he didn't wait for the crowd to say anything more, pushed aside the surprised Lai Shanhe, and walked straight out of the main gate.
Lai Shanhe looked at his brother's back, then looked at the cadres walking out one by one from the room, covered his face, and didn't know what kind of play this was.
Just now it was performing quite well, how did it leak? Could it be that Big Brother couldn't hold on?
It must be; it absolutely has nothing to do with him!
After all, he had already taken a slap; who could have paid more than him!
"I am Lai Lai Shanchuan."
"Ah? It's Section Chief Lai, is there anything late at night?"
"Come out and talk; I'm in the car opposite the First Detention Center."
Lai Lai Shanchuan's voice was very tired, but also very resolute, revealing an irresistible meaning.
Li Li Xuewu knew what he meant; it was nothing more than fighting to the death, abandoning his son, and letting Li Li Xuewu go to hell with him.
"Hehe, alright, Section Chief Lai invites me; it seems I have to go."
Li Li Xuewu chuckled, didn't tease him on the phone, agreed, hung up the phone, and waved at Gu Ning who was sitting by the kang, signaling it was fine.
Lai Lai Shanchuan took the initiative to call, which meant he admitted defeat; killing doesn't require beheading, and based on his status, he naturally wouldn't tease Lai Lai Shanchuan, let alone pretend not to know.
Doing that wasn't humiliating Lai Lai Shanchuan, but belittling himself; not daring to act when doing it is the behavior of a villain.
He played dirty tricks, so Li Li Xuewu returned an open scheme; they came and went, no one could say anything about anyone, just see the truth in their hands.
Now that one side has admitted defeat, the winning side shouldn't be proud, let alone arrogant; after all, it hasn't reached the point of killing each other.
Li Li Xuewu didn't want to cause extra trouble at this time, and didn't want anyone to interfere with his layout; most importantly, Zheng Zheng Fuhua and Gao Zhen looked up to him and gave him a platform, so he couldn't tear down their stage.
Lai Lai Shanchuan?
He naturally knew who Li Li Xuewu was, naturally knew Li Li Xuewu's background, and also knew that Li Li Xuewu had lost his job at the branch bureau and his job at the steel mill.
He didn't attack Li Li Xuewu's personal safety; if Li Li Xuewu lost, his background naturally wouldn't come to trouble him; this is the rule.
So the situation now is that he lost, not because of his son, but because of Li Li Xuewu's off-board move, and because of those people in his family.
If it were really just his son alone, maybe he would have been ruthless and really pulled Li Li Xuewu down; using a pawn to exchange for a commander is naturally worth it.
But now it's not like that; he is willing to give up his pawn, but he is not willing to give up this chessboard.
No matter what, today's trap was firmly grasped by Li Li Xuewu, and he could only admit defeat, not even for a moment.
Because those people at home don't dare to see the dawn.
Not as good as others, so stand straight when beaten; what else can he do?
It's not difficult to find where Xing Xing Yichun is; the difficulty is that he has no way to get these people out without going through Li Li Xuewu.
Because just like what Lai Shanhe said to him, whoever moves first loses. ===== CHAPTER 754 =====
I don't know what he'll do in a few days, and I don't know who he's going to clean up; no one in this room took his words seriously.
Inverted room.
Old Lao Biaozi hummed and hawed as he passed by the window; the people in the room looked at each other and let go of their hanging hearts.
Big Aunt looked at Li Li Xuewu, then signaled Yang Erhai to go serve Old Lao Biaozi his food.
In the evening, Yu Li knew Old Lao Biaozi would be back late, so she had already prepared a portion and kept it warm in the pot; it was just right to eat now.
Old Lao Biaozi stored his bike in the West Courtyard, washed his hands, and when he walked into the room, everyone was looking at him.
"What are you looking at me for?"
Old Lao Biaozi smiled at the crowd as if unintentionally, then sat cross-legged on the kang, picked up the teacup, and gulped down a big mouthful.
"Ha~~"
Letting out a long breath, Old Lao Biaozi picked up his rice bowl and started eating, not caring at all about the crowd looking at each other in the room.
According to Old Lao Biaozi's personality, if he had done something, shouldn't he have chattered for a while after returning before eating? What's wrong today?
