above the point of the knife

Chapter 63
"Okay, Secretary Jin, don't let your noble feet get off, so as not to get your soles dirty." The car stopped at the door of the house, and Zhou Sen pushed the door open and got out.

Jin Suying's face pulled down instantly.

This is clearly despising oneself.

Just as I was about to open my mouth to say something, a warning from Akiyama Nosuke popped up in my mind, and I swallowed the words: "Then you have a good rest, and I will notify you when I get back to work."

Zhou Sen nodded, watched the car leave, and then opened the door and entered his yard.

"Master Vasim..." Irina heard the movement in the yard, opened the door and came out, tears of joy welling up in her eyes.

"Okay, I'm back now, don't cry, is there hot water? I want to take a bath?" Zhou Sen also had a sore nose. Although he didn't communicate much with Irina, in this home , Irina took better care of him than Papa Anthony.

The relationship between the original body and Irina seems to be no less than that of Anthony's father, but now that it is a different person, there must be a little difference.

"Okay, Master Vasim, let me see you. Where have you been these few days? You've lost weight..." Irina wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and stepped forward to hug Zhou Sen.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm back." Zhou Sen patted Irina's back lightly and comforted her.

"Master Vasim, I'm so happy, you're hungry, I'll cook for you..." Irina said.

"No, I've eaten and I'm not hungry." Zhou Sen said hastily.

"Then I'll put hot water for you, take a good bath and sleep..." Irina said happily while wiping her tears.

Meow!

Lucy jumped out and threw herself into Zhou Sen's arms. This little guy, who hadn't seen him for several days, kept rubbing his head against his chest.

"Okay, okay, be good, I'm going to take a bath." Zhou Sen responded to the little guy's intimacy while stroking Lucy's back.

……

His whole body was submerged in the hot water, and Zhou Sen unconsciously let out a "comfortable" groan. These days, he has really suffered.

Not only physical suffering, but also mental torture.

Of course, I also thought about a lot of things, some things, I also thought through them during the four days I was trapped, and I figured them out.

Blindly avoiding is useless. Since some things fall on oneself, we can only face them positively.

The Japanese can force him to do things he doesn't want to do, but his hands, feet and mouth grow on him, so he has the final say on what to do.

There are some things that he hides in his heart and cannot speak out.

Hey……

Zhou Sen let out a long sigh, and now he can only take a step and look at it.

The water cooled down quickly. Zhou Sen came out of the bathtub, wiped off the moisture on his body with a dry towel, put on a clean bathrobe, and tidied up his face.

"Lucy, I'll take a nap, don't bother me." Zhou Sen got in and threw Lucy at the end of the bed, and got under the covers.

When I woke up, it was dark outside.

Zhou Sen went downstairs, and Irina was preparing dinner, oatmeal, bread, served with sweet and sour cucumber sauce, warming the stomach and nutritious, a standard Russian dinner.

"Irina, tomorrow is the Lunar New Year, or we can make dumplings tonight." Zhou Sen said while drinking the porridge.

"Okay, Master Vasim." Irina nodded, Anthony was not at home, Zhou Sen was her little master, and everything was naturally subject to the little master.

After dinner, Zhou Sen went upstairs to the study.

Sitting in a chair in a daze.

The room was full of books, as well as the Damascus knife. He had searched everything he could find in the entire study room, and there were no other secrets.

As for the secret, there is only the key left to him by Anthony's father, which is the key to unlock the secret hidden in the racecourse club.

He can't go now, and he can only wait for spring, when the racetrack opens, and then he has a legitimate reason to go to that club.

But now, we can only wait.

He randomly put this key together with the key of his own house, which is called black under the lamp. No one would have thought that he would put such important keys together with ordinary keys, so even if he was "Yurekin" "During the kidnapping days, the keys were not confiscated by them.

I don't know how Gu Laoliu and the others are doing. They should be nervous and anxious if they are not here for a few days.

Go early tomorrow morning, report to them that they are safe, and by the way, find out what happened in the past few days when I was not here.

……

"Brother, boss..." The next morning, Zhou Sen bought breakfast, and when he arrived at the warehouse, he was surrounded by Ye San'er, Wu En and two newcomers.

"Where's Lao Liu?" Zhou Sen asked strangely after searching for a long time, but he didn't see Gu Lao Liu's figure.

"Old Gu went to the police station to make an appointment, and he will be here in a while." Ye San'er explained.

"Oh, he's the acting inspector now, and he's going to meet him tomorrow." Zhou Sen remembered that Gu Lao Liu was taking his place temporarily. Although he hasn't been officially promoted yet, it shouldn't be a big problem, as long as he If there is no problem.

"Is nothing going on these days?"

"It's nothing. It's just trivial matters. It's the same as when the boss was here. Even if I haven't seen you these few days, the special assistant Jin said that you are going to handle some cases. We don't have to ask." Ye San Er explained.

"Oh, I'm going to handle a case. The superior ordered it to be kept secret, so I didn't tell you about it." Zhou Sen heheed, it's better not to involve his brothers in his affairs.

"Let me tell you, just after you were promoted, you suddenly disappeared, and you couldn't see anyone in the police station. We are still worried."

While talking, Gu Lao Liu came over on his bicycle.

"Boss, I finally saw you." Gu Lao Liu parked the car, walked over, and hugged Zhou Sen excitedly.

"Come on, go over and have a cigarette." Zhou Sen took out the cigarette case and handed Gu Lao Liu a pipe.

"Thank you, boss." Gu Lao Liu reached out to take it, and they were not polite between them.

"During the two days I was away, what happened to Su Wenqing and Qin Laoqi?" Zhou Sen asked after taking a puff of cigarette.

"The day before yesterday, Su Wenqing's godson Feng Hua took people to the Qunfang Tower, and asked by name to see Sister Yan who came out of the Ningxiang Hall. There was a big fuss, and it almost failed. The Sun Department of the Zhengyang Department The boss has also gone, and the number of guests in Qunfang Building has dropped sharply in the past two days, which makes the Grand View Garden cheaper." Gu Lao Liu said directly without thinking too much.

"Qin Xiong didn't take revenge?"

"Qin Xiong was grounded by Lord Qin Qi. Now Hou Wu is in charge of Qunfang Building. If Qin Xiong was in charge, he would have been beaten to death." Gu Lao Liu said with a chuckle.

Zhou Sen nodded. Both Qin Xiong and Feng Hua are leaders of the younger generation on Bingcheng Road. One of them is the eldest son of Qin Qiye, and the other is the leader of the up-and-coming star Su Wenqing. Who will become the next biggest gangster in Bingcheng? guy.

Basically locked into one of the two of them.

Therefore, the competition between the two is naturally everywhere, and the enmity that has been formed is naturally not a day or two.

Even eating a meal, arranging a seat, holding a party, and setting up a scene are all compared, not to mention, commercial competition, especially the business on land and water terminals and railways, both of them have overlaps. Almost incompatible.

"Didn't you say why?"

"I heard that Sister Yan from the Ningxiang Pavilion originally agreed to go to the Qunxian Guild Hall under the name of Su Wenqing, but in the blink of an eye she went to the Qunfang Building. This Feng Hua is not in a good mood, so I went to look for the bad luck of the Qunfang Building."

"What's the reaction from Ningxiang Hall?"

"There was no movement in the Ningxiang Pavilion, but there was an incident five days ago. The Ningxiang Pavilion reported that someone set fire to the temporary warehouse at night. Fortunately, it was discovered early. Although it was on fire, it was quickly extinguished. The loss may not be small. Boss Bai caught the arsonist and turned it over to the police station the next day. Boss, who do you think is the arsonist?"

"Who is it?" Zhou Sen laughed secretly, but it also showed that Wu En was really tight-lipped, not even Gu Lao Liu.

"Luan Yuanhui, head of the nursing team at Ningxiang Hall, this is a fallen tree and scattered monkeys. Boss Bai may not be able to escape this calamity!" Gu Lao Liu couldn't help but sigh with emotion after finishing speaking.

Zhou Sen smiled, Bai Yulan is probably doing well now, the conflict between Qin Laoqi and Su Wenqing has been made public, and there must be good things to see in the future after this trouble.

"Lao Liu, the new official has taken office. I haven't invited everyone to dinner yet. At noon today, please treat everyone to a meal." Zhou Sen took out an "Old Sheep" from his wallet and stuffed it into Gu Lao Liu's pocket , said, "I will not participate."

"Boss, I treat you to dinner. How can I ask you to spend money?" Gu Lao Liu blushed. He has a wife and children, and a family. They are all not done.

This income is naturally much less than others.

Besides, the salaries of low-level police officers are very low. If Zhou Sen didn't have a rich adoptive father, how could he have such a prosperous life?

"Okay, don't be hypocritical, just treat it as my nephew's New Year's money." Zhou Sen chuckled, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Boss, I owe you more and more..."

"No matter what is owed or not, they are all brothers who eat in the same pot. Do it well and remember not to do things that hurt nature and reason." Zhou Sen said, "I still have something to do, so I'm leaving first."

"Boss, shall I go to your house to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow morning?"

"No, you stay at home with your wife and children." Zhou Sen waved his hands vigorously behind him, "I'll be alone for a few days."

Today is New Year's Eve, there are many people on the street, and it is very lively, bustling crowds can be seen everywhere, adults, children, old people, women...

Even the trams are full of people. On the wide central street, there are people coming and going, and western faces with blond hair and brown eyes can be seen everywhere.

The young girl is snuggling in the arms of her lover, her face is full of sweet smiles, the passing carriages shuttle through the crowd, and the bells hanging under the eaves of the carriages make a crisp and pleasant sound.

Art Guzhai.

Zhou Sen is here again.

He didn't have any purpose, but wandered here, thinking that after he was transferred to the super high stock market, he would be in charge of publishing and reviewing newspapers and books.

The bookstore, though the end selling newspapers and books, happened to be within his remit.

Today everyone is busy going home for the New Year reunion, so there are not many people in the store. The owner Qiao Sanlang is also tidying up and cleaning, and it seems that he is also planning to close early and go home.

"Zhou, Police Officer Zhou..." Qiao Sanlang raised his head and saw Zhou Sen, so he recognized him immediately, but his tone seemed a bit stiff, with a feeling of repelling others thousands of miles away.

If Qiao Sanlang knew what he was doing now, he would probably lower his face and express that he was not welcome anymore.

"Boss Qiao, I wish you a New Year's greeting in advance." Zhou Sen cupped his hands and said with a smile.

"Officer Zhou, happy new year, are you still here to buy books today?" Qiao Sanlang replied, businessmen, of course, can't choose customers.

But a customer like Zhou Sen is really rare for him, ordinary policemen don't have the leisure to visit the bookstore.

It’s true, it’s all with a purpose.
