Chapter 654 The struggle begins!

Chen Xiao and Lin Xi did not stay in the teahouse for long.

Then we left the teahouse, got in the car and headed towards the police station.

In the car, just as Lao Gui was about to open his mouth, Chen Xiao shook his head at him to indicate that there was no need to say anything.

Lao Gui nodded and drove the car to the police station where Pan Huiping was.

After reaching the latter's office, Pan Huiping stood up and greeted Chen Xiao and his wife.

"Have you two just met Liu Chuan?"

Chen Xiao nodded: "I have met him and we had a good chat."

Pan Huiping did not ask what they talked about. Instead, she looked at Chen Xiao thoughtfully for a few seconds and asked:

"Why do I feel like you're missing the point?"

Chen Xiao understood this sentence.

However, he pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth: "What does Captain Pan mean?"

"We are old acquaintances, there is no need to do this, right?"

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "I do feel that Xiaoji and the others are fine, but... we can never be sure until we find them."

"That's right, so what are you going to do next?"

"I would like to entrust this matter to Captain Pan."

"What about you, are you going back?"

"That's about it. I'm waiting for an opportunity. When the opportunity comes, I will choose to go back. I think it won't take too long."

Pan Huiping did not hesitate and shrugged:
"Okay, we are friends after all."

As she spoke, Pan Huiping suddenly asked, "Why didn't you bring Dayou with you on this case?"

Chen Xiao paused and smiled, "I just didn't let him come to Haicheng. And you know what happened in Haicheng. More people doesn't necessarily mean more power."

"Well, take care of him more often, he is a very good assistant."

Pan Huiping spoke frankly, Chen Xiao kept saying yes, and Lin Xi stood aside, smiling without saying a word.

"Got it. If there's nothing else, Xiaoxi and I will go around your criminal police team first."

"You are welcome to do whatever you want... You are very familiar with our branch anyway."

Chen Xiao had come to Haicheng to handle a case before, so he was not unfamiliar with Pan Huiping's department.

The police officers working in the police force would greet him from time to time when they saw him.

But he was waiting for news here, while someone far away in Shenzhen was sitting still for a long time.

He sat in the study room holding his cell phone without saying anything.

But his eyes were full of worries.

"Chen Xiao, you should have discovered Lao Gui's existence, right?"

"Just, who do you think I should be?"

"The president of the Sacred Heart Church? Or one of the twelve high-ranking officials?"

"You are such a tough opponent. You have intelligence and sharpness. Sometimes I even have to admit that you are better than me."

"Well, if an opponent like you encounters another misfortune, I wonder if I can make you lose all your confidence?"

"I can't think of a better way to deal with someone like you except to destroy your confidence."

The person in the study room stood up, picked up his cell phone and made a call.

"I'm at home, can you come back?"

Although it was just an inquiry, he didn't wait for the other party's reply and just hung up the phone.

Then he stood up and opened a cabinet.

There are all kinds of sharp weapons on display in the cabinet.

Machete, boning knife, axe, scissors...

After hesitating for a few seconds in front of these sharp weapons, he picked up an axe.

"I really want to spare your lives, but if I stay any longer, I will be in a lot of trouble, and I won't be able to achieve my goal." "This is a plan I have been planning for several years. With Chen Xiao's misfortune, I can only say that this is your fate."

Muttering, the man picked up the axe and walked out of the study.

However, as soon as he turned around, his eyes immediately became gloomy.

………………

"Hey, Chen Xiao, Qi Wei is going to hold a meeting about the new land. And I was the last person to be notified of this meeting, so if nothing unexpected happens, it should be that she wants me to withdraw from the bidding for the new land."

Chen Xiaozheng and Lin Xi left the police station and were about to go to Xiaoji's residence again.

It was just a call from Guo Qing that made Chen Xiao stop the car immediately.

"Are you sure about the last message you received?"

"Yes, Qi Wei's attitude towards me is very cold, and her attitude says it all."

Chen Xiao sighed: "What a pity, this woman is too rational and smart, but she doesn't know her family well enough."

"What do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting. I will book a flight back now and will be in Longding in about a few hours."

Guo Qing: "Have you found Xiaoji's whereabouts?"

“I didn’t find it, but it’s useless for me to stay in Haicheng now, and Xiaoxi will stay here.”

"But……."

"It's okay. Don't worry, I can handle the situation myself."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come back. I'll go see what Qi Wei wants to do at the meeting."

Chen Xiao nodded and hung up the phone without saying anything more.

Lin Xi was sitting aside and had already called to inquire about the air tickets.

While waiting to say hello, Lin Xi said, "I checked. The fastest flight is in the evening."

"Okay." Chen Xiao nodded.

Lin Xi immediately helped Chen Xiao book a flight, and then asked, "Will Laogui go with you?"

"Of course he's going with me."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi also booked Lao Gui's ticket. After finishing the transaction, he said with some disappointment:
"Actually, I really want to go back to Shenzhen with you, but unfortunately my vacation is about to end."

"I'm already very surprised that you came to see me, and I can't hinder my wife's future. If I do, how can I live off her in the future?"

"Go away, go away. A grown man always thinks of taking advantage of others and forcing his wife to take advantage of him. He has good intentions..."

Before Lin Xi finished speaking, her face suddenly turned red.

Chen Xiao laughed: "Just tell me whether what I said makes sense or not."

"I'm sick!"

Lin Xi angrily twisted Chen Xiao's arm.

After the couple made a fuss for a while, Lin Xi's expression gradually became serious:
"Hubby, when you return to Shencheng, you will definitely ask Laogui to pass on the message as soon as possible, telling them that you are back in Shencheng."

Chen Xiao nodded, and Lin Xi continued, "When they knew you were back in Shencheng, they would definitely figure out your intentions. But with Lao Gui's information, they knew you were suspicious of Huang Zhao, and they also knew that Qin Fei had arranged someone to monitor you."

"But if the disappearance of Xiaoji and the black cat is really related to Grandpa Guo, then they will also suspect the reason for the disappearance of Xiaoji and the black cat. However, compared with the current situation, this is just a small matter. They will definitely discredit you as soon as possible."

"For example, killing Zhu Nianying and dumping her body, and then exposing Xiaoji and the others' behavior."

Chen Xiao nodded, "Yes, there are always people who are better than you. There must be technical experts who are better than Black Cat, and they may have found them. So, they are now wondering if I am going back to Shencheng just to face the final battle."

"But what if you return to Deep City and find that things are not what you thought?"

Chen Xiao frowned: "What's different?"

"What I mean is, what if the suspect you've always thought of is... not Huang Zhao? How would you deal with it then?"

As Lin Xi spoke, he took out paper and pen, ignoring Chen Xiao's shock, and began to write down Huang Zhao's name.

Then, with Huang Zhao as the main body, other names began to be extended continuously!
