I tried to contact Chu Xiaoxiao again, but Chu Xiaoxiao’s mobile phone was always switched off.
Lin Fang was worried about Chu Xiaoxia’s situation and was so anxious that she couldn’t sit still.
I advised her to relax, Chu Huai En is Chu Xiaoxiao’s real father after all, he will not make things too difficult for Chu Xiaoxiao.
Lin Fang bit her lip and said, “But if Xiaoxia really retracts her confession, we won’t be able to sue Chen Yu Zhou!”
“A confession is the weakest piece of evidence in the chain of evidence, in your case, there is video footage, it is hard to escape from ironclad evidence, don’t be afraid.”
At this time, Xia Gehuai patted my shoulder from behind and said with relief.
Lin Fang saw that the two of us were very familiar with each other, so she asked me in a low voice, “Is that your friend?”
I was embarra*sed, I didn’t think Lin Fang would even remember Xia Ge Huai, but that was normal, Xia Ge Huai used to be a marginal figure in the cla*s, a proud girl like Lin Fang would not even look at him.
But Xia GeHuai is different from me, he is a mountain not to me, I go to the mountain character, the cla*s does not pay attention to him, he will pester these people, as a follower, the situation is much better than me.
Xia Gehuai said: “Aiyo Lin big beauty, we are high school cla*smates, ah, I am Zhang Chao’s tablemate. Have I become handsome, you don’t even recognise me.”
Lin Fang smiled and said, “Sorry, my memory is really a bit bad, I remember you, I just didn’t remember it all of a sudden.”
“It’s alright! But, do you two have some secrets you’re hiding from me, I see that you’re in such a state, have you turned your pure cla*smate love sour? Good for you Zhang Chao, I can’t tell, you’ve turned from a bike to a motorbike now, you’re very different from before!”
“Don’t talk nonsense.” I hurriedly told him to shut up, lest I make Lin Fang shy, “Don’t forget your identity as the glorious people’s piece of police.”
Xia Gehuai craned his neck proudly and said, “Now I’m not an ordinary piece of police, I’ve been promoted, no, thanks to your blessing, after arresting that kid Liu Hu in, I’ve joined the black sweeping group, from now on I’ll all be a piece of police in charge of chicken and peasant.”
“That’s fine!” I really didn’t expect that I would get a blessing out of a disaster, I just wanted to teach Liu Hu a lesson, but instead I helped Xia Ge Huai, “This good news is worth celebrating, tonight, I’ll treat you to dinner! What should I call you now? Should I call you Officer Xia from now on?”
Xia Gehuai gave me a salute, pointed at me and smiled, “Call me Xia Sir from now on, see you tonight, I won’t eat without abalone and shark’s fin.”
Because I didn’t drive over, Xia Gehuai found a trainee policeman from the police station to drive me back.
This kid, a day to soar, birds and guns for guns, just from the trainee piece of police into the anti-triad unit, surprisingly learned to call on people up.
I wanted to cheer her up, but she was so worried about Chu Xiaoxiao that she couldn’t even force a smile.
I was worried too, but what was the point of worrying.
The storm was coming and I couldn’t even stop it. The Chen family and us have already formed a bond. There is no way the Chen family will give in, and there is no way I, for one, will beg for mercy!
“Jingle Bells ……”
I fished the phone out of my trouser pocket. Lin Fang glanced at the number and saw that it was a string of numbers that I hadn’t saved, so she asked who it was from.
I smiled, I had known this call was coming, I hadn’t expected it so soon.
“You’re a kid, you never let me rest a*sured anywhere you go! Didn’t you go home to do business, how could you get yourself into the bureau, have you forgotten what you are?!”
The voice of an older man rambled on the other end of the phone, although it could be heard that this man was in his sixties, he was still full of energy, just by listening to this series of yelling and shouting, one could imagine how this man looked when he was young and swallowed up all his anger.
I smiled and begged for forgiveness, “Master, I can’t forget that I am a soldier, and I will demand myself as a soldier even after I take off my uniform. This time I really had an emergency and had no choice. I’ll let you forgive me for now, but later on, I’ll come to you to apologise, and you can kick me with your boots!”
“You, you, you! That’s not what I’m talking about. What I’m talking about is why you didn’t call me when you were obviously wrongly accused. You’re a soldier, you’re a soldier out of our Snow Leopard unit, how can you be wrongly accused by that bunch of stinking B*****ds?!”
“Don’t be angry, Master, I’m just coming out. In fact, I expected that even if I didn’t look for you, you would come back to save me. I just didn’t expect it to be strange that I was released so quickly.” Although I was nagged, I wasn’t angry at all, but rather warm, the old man was still so protective.
He muttered, “You’re the only one with a heart of gold.” Then he added, “Don’t be too proud of yourself, you don’t necessarily know if this is a game or not. You can see for yourself on the internet, there are now reports that you are in a fairy tale, and they are trying to hype you up by catching you as a retired soldier. Do you want me to help, I’ll find someone to spread the word and give you a quiet mountain to shake the tiger.”
I thanked sincerely, “Thanks a lot old man. But it’s okay, I can sort it out myself.”
The old man was quick-witted, and once he heard me say that, he didn’t ask too many questions, so he said, “Good, you’ve always done things steadily, so I won’t be superfluous. But Xiaochao, you must remember that you were once a soldier, you must always demand yourself as a soldier, and you must not discredit the uniform!”
The former admonition rang in my ears again, and I immediately straightened my back, “Yes!”
“Alright, you brat, go and get busy.”
I held the phone and couldn’t help but think of my days in the army, the times I spent with those reliable comrades, when I wasn’t afraid at all despite going to war, not like now, when the enemies were hiding in shady corners, waiting to find the right moment to bite me.
Lin Fang asked me, “Is this your leader from when you were a soldier? Will he help us? With him around, the Chen family and their son must not dare to do anything to us.”
I shook my head, I didn’t want to bother the old man with this matter. The old man was in the southwest and Tong City was in the southeast, the mountains were high and the emperor was far away, and a strong dragon could not suppress a snake on the ground. Although he could find connections to help out for my sake, but there were so many detours involved that he would definitely not be able to do anything.
The old chief has fought victorious battles all his life, and the soldiers he brought out are all good.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”
As the car drove farther past, I saw a fat, sweaty man circling the Land Rover.
“Mr. Lu, why is he here?” Lin Fang drew a cold breath backwards.
I said in a muffled voice, “Nothing good is going to come of it.”
I pulled open the car door and jumped out, shouting his name and running towards him. Mr. Lu saw me and flung his two short legs at me.
I invited him up to have a seat and a gla*s of water, while explaining to him why Lin Fang and I hadn’t gone to work today.
“Mr. Lu, I’m going up to take a shower and change my clothes, and I’ll go to work right away.”
“Hey hey hey, no need.” Mr. Lu wiped his sweat and said, “I came here today to talk to you about this.”
Lin Fang also came running over at this time, she was a bit nervous about facing Mr. Lu and hid behind me.
