Chapter 307 I Want to Meet My Brother-in-Law
Luo Xun's words did move Chu Hongli, but after calming down from his fear and helplessness, Chu Hongli chose to remain silent.
“I couldn’t trust anyone,” he said, “including the police.”
"But only we can help you." Luo Xun said.
"I have trusted many people, and many of them were betrayers."
He lowered his head, raised his head, wiped his face to make himself look more energetic: "Who can guarantee that all police officers are good people? Those evidences are the only thing that can save my life now."
"It is undeniable that there is some truth in what you said."
Chi Xia spoke up: "But there is one thing we said correctly. You will not survive a day after leaving the police station."
"Am I safe here?"
"certainly."
Chi Xia said: "I don't know what made you misunderstand the police, but I can promise you that as long as you are here, your safety is guaranteed."
Chu Hongli narrowed his eyes and asked, "Is he locked up in this place?"
"You haven't committed any crime, why are you being locked up?"
Chi Xia told him: "Although we can't guarantee that you will live a happy life, at least we can give you three meals a day, a hot bath, and a full night's sleep."
Chu Hongli was silent for a long while: "I want to see Tu Guoan."
"Yes, but given Tu Guoan's special status, we need to make some preparations."
Chu Hongli asked again: "Can I contact the outside world?"
"Miao Xue?" Chi Xia asked.
Chu Hongli's expression changed and he nodded awkwardly.
Chi Xia smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, have you ever thought that in order to contain you, the other party would attack Miao Xue and her daughter?"
Chu Hongli was anxious, his face flushed: "How is it possible!"
"We know your feelings for Miao Xue, but others won't know?" Luo Xun said from the side.
After another silence, Chu Hongli stood up excitedly: "How are they now? Are they safe? How are they?"
“They are very nice.”
Chi Xia said: "Just in case, the police will protect their safety within a certain range, but you should be aware of one thing, Miao Xue already has a new family."
Chu Hongli breathed a sigh of relief and sat back down: "I know, as long as I'm safe, as long as I'm safe..."
"So shouldn't you also give us some reassurance about the evidence in your hands?" Chi Xia said.
Chu Hongli thought for a moment and made up his mind: "When I meet Tu Guoan, I will consider giving it to you."
"Okay." Chi Xia nodded: "But when you meet Tu Guoan, our colleagues must be present."
Chu Hongli subconsciously wanted to refuse, but seeing the expressions of Chi Xia and Luo Xun, he finally agreed reluctantly: "Okay!"
After hearing what he said, Luo Xun immediately stood up to arrange the relevant matters.
Chi Xia put away the things on the table, called two colleagues in, and asked them to take Chu Hongli to wash up, change his clothes and give him something to eat.
Seeing her arrangement, Chu Hongli looked strange. When Chi Xia walked to the door, he asked, "Did you really catch that Mo Laoqi?"
"certainly."
"Give me a pen and paper," he said.
Chi Xia did as she was told, and Chu Hongli quickly wrote down a string of email addresses and passwords: "This email contains some information about him. This is my way of thanking you. Let me think about the rest."
Chi Xia took the paper and said, "Thank you."
Chu Hongli said nothing and followed the two policemen out. Chi Xia's voice sounded behind him again: "Over the years, Xiangbin Group has made indelible contributions to Dongzhou, especially the villages and towns around Yubin. After the case is over, the relevant system should do its best to support it. If you have enough ability, it won't be difficult for Xiangbin to rise again."
Chu Hongli turned around suddenly.
Chi Xia said: "I won't lie to you."
Chu Hongli's eyes were moist, and great hope burst out in his eyes. He didn't say anything, but just nodded gratefully towards Chi Xia.
When his figure disappeared from sight, Chi Xia breathed a sigh of relief, curled up the corners of his lips and smiled, then went to the cafeteria contentedly.
Luo Xun arrived a little late, and Chi Xia had already prepared the meal.
"Everything has been arranged . Lao Lin and Juanmao will take him to see Tu Guoan later."
Luo Xun sat down, broke open the disposable chopsticks and rubbed off the burrs on them: "Has the goal been achieved?"
"Um."
Chi Xia drank a mouthful of soup and said, "Chu Hongli is a very cautious person, but the relevant information given to Mo Laoqi is enough for us. It would be good to let Brother Lin deceive him at that time. After Chu Hongli meets Tu Guoan, he should have new plans. If we force him too much, he will keep it secret. I have already told him about the government's support for Xiangbin Group, and he should know it in his mind."
Luo Xun took a few sips of noodles, looking very satisfied: "Officer Chi played very well in every step."
"Thank you very much." Chi Xia stared at the garlic on the table and asked him, "Would you like some garlic?"
Luo Xun shook his head: "No, I have to go see my brother-in-law later, this is not good."
Chi Xia smiled, but there was a hint of worry in her expression.
"Don't worry." Luo Xun saw her emotions: "With me here, what are you afraid of?"
Chi Xia exhaled, unable to express her worries, and only pulled the corner of her mouth: "Are we going alone?"
"Well, Lao Cao and the others will take care of Mo Laoqi first. By the way, Director Chang said that for safety reasons, we should not look for Ge Jingyi for the time being. She and her grandmother are safe now. What they are worried about is that someone is watching us and trying to find out their background."
Seeing that he had finished eating, Chi Xia handed him a tissue: "Okay."
Luo Xun wiped his mouth, stood up and straightened his clothes: "Let's go, let's shoot first for Old K to see, otherwise he will be waiting anxiously."
…
It was three o'clock in the afternoon when they arrived at Guang. Because they hadn't informed in advance, Chi Xia and Luo Xun were blocked at the front desk.
Even though I revealed my identity as a police officer, the receptionist still said with a smile: "I'm sorry, officer, you really can't see our Mr. Qu without an appointment. Also, as far as I know, Mr. Qu is not in the office at this time."
"Then where is he now?" Luo Xun asked.
The receptionist smiled and said, "I'm sorry, this is not within my scope of responsibility."
Chi Xia looked around and saw Qu Bai getting out of the car outside the gate.
The two of them looked at each other through the glass. Qu Bai smiled, but the smile quickly faded.
"Captain Luo." Chi Xia called out Luo Xun and raised his chin in the direction of Qu Bai.
Seeing a group of people following Qu Bai, Luo Xun felt inexplicably nervous.
The two walked up and just as they approached Qu Bai, they were blocked by Ade with a cold face and asked them very rudely: "Who are you?"
"Police." Luo Xun glanced at Chi Xia.
Chi Xia showed his police ID: "There is a case that needs Mr. Qu's cooperation in the investigation."
She turned sideways to look at Qu Bai: "This is Mr. Qu, right?"
Ade turned around: "Boss?"
Qu Bai looked at Chi Xia, touched his cufflinks, and seemed to be interested: "Officer, can I see your police ID again?"
Ade put down his arms and retreated to Qu Bai's side.
Amidst the curious gazes of the crowd, Chi Xia held the police officer's ID in front of Qu Bai and kept it there longer than usual.
"Officer Chi..." Qu Bai smiled again: "Excuse me, what case do you need my cooperation on?"
"Yuji, an abandoned orphanage."
Chi Xia said: "According to our understanding, this orphanage was once under the name of General Qu. I came here today to learn more about the situation."
"Then come on." Qu Bai took the lead and walked forward: "Ade, bring Officer Chi and the others up."
Ade replied with a stern face, then turned to the people around him and said, "You guys go to the meeting room first."
The group quickly dispersed. Ade made a gesture of invitation and said to Chi Xia and Luo Xun with a fierce face, "Please."
Chi Xia and Luo Xun followed.
Luo Xun and Chi Xia observed along the way. No one spoke when they entered the elevator. But when they got out of the elevator, Luo Xun pulled Chi Xia's sleeve, leaned over and whispered, "There are too many cameras."
Chi Xia whispered back to him: "Found it."
With so many cameras, one can imagine who they are being monitored for. Chi Xia knew that there must be no shortage of them in Qu Bai's office.
From the moment she and Luo Xun stepped into Daguang, their every move had been seen by Lao K.
