Chapter 422

"Yes..."

"I heard he hasn't been home for a long time."

Tang Xiaolong was stunned and subconsciously looked at Gao Qiqiang, who was brewing tea with extreme naturalness.

"I'm asking you! Why are you looking at him?"

"Five days!"

Tang Xiaolong replied hurriedly, but the police officer's next question left him unable to answer.

"Why didn't you call the police?!"

"It's like this, officer."

To the side, Gao Qiqiang, who was pouring tea, explained in time,

"During the two days Xiaohu was missing, I actually went to find Officer Li and Officer An. At the time, I wondered if they could use their personal connections to look for him."

"Because Xiaolong also said his brother liked to gamble before, and after losing money, there were debt collectors. If I called the police and he was really hiding because of gambling debts, then not paying back money is also against the law."

"So I didn't dare to call the police."

After finishing,

Li Xiang opposite him also testified for Gao Qiqiang,

"Yes, that happened."

The captain nodded.

Li Xiang took out his notebook and recorded while asking,

"When was the last time you saw him? Where was it?"

"Uh... five days ago! At the vegetable market! Old Zhao asked me to drink that day..."

And just as Tang Xiaolong was concentrating on recalling what happened five days ago while replying to Li Xiang's questions,

the captain to the side asked out of the blue,

"How did you offend Xu Jiang?!"

Instantly!

The expression on Tang Xiaolong's face froze, and he stared blankly at the captain who asked the question.

"I..."

Even all the viewers were shocked by the captain's question!

But at this very moment when Tang Xiaolong was stunned!

Gao Qiqiang took a shallow sip of tea and reminded him in time,

"Do you know Xu Jiang?"

In an instant,

"I... don't know... Xu Jiang?"

Tang Xiaolong also reacted, looked at the captain of the criminal police team, and emphasized it again.

"I don't know Xu Jiang!"

Instantly,

the captain of the criminal police team gave Gao Qiqiang a meaningful look, drank some tea, and said nothing.

And under this scene, all the viewers broke out in a cold sweat!

That sudden question from the police officer just now!

Even they were almost tricked!

Tang Xiaolong was almost about to start defending himself.

But no matter how he defended himself!

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was equivalent to admitting he knew Xu Jiang!

This was the biggest trap set by the captain!

【Holy crap!! This interrogation tactic was too sudden!!】

【Tang Xiaolong almost let it slip!!】

【This criminal police captain is no simple character either!!】

【Too awesome....】

【Good thing Gao Qiqiang was there!!】

【His reaction was too fast... and Gao Qiqiang was so calm! Not panicked at all!!】

【Is this the natural demeanor of a big shot!! Unflappable!!】

Countless viewers couldn't help but marvel at Gao Qiqiang's psychological quality!

He performed flawlessly in front of the two police officers who came to the door!

And he guided Tang Xiaolong's answers without a single leak!

And in the police car on the way back,

Li Xiang argued with the captain to the side,

"This Tang guy definitely has a problem!"

"What about the guy named Gao?"

"Gao Qiqiang?"

Li Xiang thought for a few seconds and replied,

"I've had contact with him twice, and I think... he's quite enthusiastic! He should be a down-to-earth, honest person!"

"An honest person? Him?"

Hearing Li Xiang's judgment,

the captain smiled, noncommittal.

Countless viewers in front of the screen laughed out loud.

And after the police left,

in Tang Xiaolong's home,

Tang Xiaolong suddenly let out a big sigh of relief and was just about to ask something.

Gao Qiqiang asked first,

"Do you have any coffee in your house?"

Tang Xiaolong was stunned and took out coffee from under the coffee table.

And Gao Qiqiang, with practiced ease, scooped out a spoonful of instant coffee powder and poured it into his mouth, chewing it dry.

"Brother Qiang? Do you think Xiaohu is dead?? If he wasn't dead, there's no reason for two police officers to come to the house!"

"Sit down."

Gao Qiqiang swallowed the coffee and pointed to the sofa to the side.

After pondering for a few seconds, he completely cleared his thoughts.

He analyzed the situation for Tang Xiaolong with extreme calmness,

"Why did that police officer suddenly bring up Xu Jiang just now?"

"Because he wanted to trick you into a confession."

"In other words, the focus of the police's recent investigation is Xu Jiang."

"Since it's Xu Jiang, why don't they arrest him?"

"Because the evidence the police have is not enough!"

Two simple sentences completely analyzed the police's situation and purpose!

Leaving countless viewers in front of the screen dumbfounded!

But Gao Qiqiang's words clearly hadn't ended yet!

"A while ago, Li Xiang came to find me and showed me a photo."

"Huang Cuicui!"

"What did Huang Cuicui do?"

Tang Xiaolong was stunned and stammered in reply,

"She... she was a prostitute!"
