Chapter 18
Chapter 18
Qiao Ze was going to see Huang Jiayin the next day, but Lu Miao knew that he had plans and intentions, so he didn't follow him.
This was the first time that Qiao Ze took the initiative to ask Huang Jiayin out, so when Huang Jiayin saw him, his eyes were full of brilliance.
Qiao Ze looked at the radiant woman opposite him. If it was the past, he would never have used her, especially her feelings for him.
But it was the bureau she set up first that forced him and Lu Miao to this position. His responsibility and work made him have to use her to break the bureau.
What started with her can only end with her.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Huang Jiayin's appearance brought his attention back.
He watched her take a seat with a smile, stretched out his hand to call for the waiter, and replied quietly: "No, I just arrived."
He restrained some of the arrogance he had in front of her yesterday, and he became much calmer. He was exactly the Jiang Xing that Huang Jiayin knew at the beginning, calm and indifferent, always rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Such Qiao Ze softened Huang Jiayin's brows and eyes, and looked at him with one hand on his chin: "What do you want from me?"
Qiao Ze picked up the wine glass: "Thank you for what happened yesterday."
Huang Jiayin also raised his glass and touched him lightly: "It should."
Qiao Ze took a sip, put down his glass, pondered for a while, and looked at her: "Huang Jiayin, I am very grateful for the things you have done for me, but don't do this in the future. You know, your father and I are at odds , either he dies or I die."
Huang Jiayin's smile froze: "What if I stand by your side?"
Qiao Ze looked at her and said, "There is no if. The key to the problem between me and you is not whose side you are on. It is that I have never had any feelings for you."
Huang Jiayin: "You haven't tried to approach me, how do you know?"
Qiao Ze shook his head, raised his glass, and took a sip: "I know what I want."
Huang Jiayin's attitude softened, and he looked at him pleadingly: "Jiang Xing..."
Qiao Ze didn't look at her, and took a sip of his wine. At this moment, the mobile phone on the table vibrated, and a message came.
He picked up the phone and looked at it, his face tightened, and he tapped the screen with his fingertips, looking like he was about to send a message, but the phone suddenly beeped and turned off.
Annoyed, he put his mobile phone upside down on the table, picked up his glass and took another sip of wine.
This series of small actions failed to escape Huang Jiayin's eyes, she looked at him worriedly: "What's wrong?"
Qiao Ze shook his head: "It's okay."
"Is there something urgent to contact someone?" She handed him the mobile phone, "I still have battery in my mobile phone, here, I will lend it to you."
Qiao Ze glanced at her hesitantly: "Thank you."
He picked it up, dialed a number on his mobile phone, and said to the other end of the phone: "Tangyuan, it's me. My mobile phone is out of battery, and I borrowed Miss Huang's number now. I can't hear the phone easily, and I will reply to the message later." You, just look for this phone number."
He hung up the phone and edited the message.
Edited three records, one for Tang Yuan, one for Yan Gao, one for Su Ming, and all records were deleted after the last two were sent successfully.
He handed the phone back to Huang Jiayin: "Thank you."
Huang Jiayin smiled at him: "It's okay."
She was happy because she was able to help him. Qiao Ze didn't say much from the beginning to the end. After finishing the meal with her, he thanked her solemnly for saving him yesterday, and then excused that the company had to leave beforehand. .
On the way back, Qiao Ze sent Shang Qi a message and asked him, "Is the deployment ready?"
Shang Qi replied "Don't worry".
Qiao Ze went straight to room 301 of the Weimahe clubhouse where he used Huang Jiayin's mobile phone to make appointments with Yan Gao and Su Ming.
Wu Manman was in the house, while Shang Qi and Qiao Ze were outside. They found a place with a good view. With binoculars, it was clear at a glance who was coming in and who was going out.
When Qiao Ze got there, Shang Qi was already waiting there.
Qiao Ze got into his car directly, picked up the binoculars and looked at the door, then turned to look at him: "Mr. Shang, do you think it is Su Ming or Yan Gao who came here today?"
Shang Qi was silent for a while: "Su Ming."
Qiao Ze raised his eyebrows: "How?"
Shang Qi: "Intuition." After being silent for a while, he said again, "To be honest, I have never trusted Su Ming. He is too shrewd, and he was recruited from outside, unlike Yan Gao, who was directly assigned by Mr. Huo. I came here. From the perspective of closeness, Yan Gao is obviously more reliable."
"Besides, strictly speaking, Su Ming should have participated in our action plan for the first time, and something went wrong." His eyes met Qiao Ze's, "Isn't this suspicious?"
Qiao Ze nodded: "It's suspicious."
He picked up the binoculars and looked outside the door. After a while, a familiar silver-gray car approached slowly. The person who got out of the car was deliberately disguised. Shang Qi couldn't possibly have a problematic Yan Gao in his mouth.
Qiao Ze turned his head to look at him: "Mr. Shang?"
Shang Qi turned cold, opened the door and got out of the car.
Qiao Ze also got out of the car and followed Yan Gao not far or near.
After Yan Gao looked around cautiously, he had already entered the clubhouse, swiped his membership card at the front desk, entered the elevator, and went directly to the room 301 reserved in the name of Huang Jiayin.
He pushed open the door and saw Wu Manman in the room, with arms crossed, smiling at him: "Yan Gao, is it you?"
Yan Gao's complexion changed, and he turned around to go out, but Shang Qi and Qiao Ze were already standing quietly behind him.
He instinctively wanted to escape, but Qiao Ze kicked him into the box, and he followed suit, closing the door with a bang.
Qiao Ze stepped forward, stood up with Yan Gao in his arms, pinned him against the wall with his hands cut behind his back, searched him, and let him go after making sure that there were no communication equipment or monitoring equipment.
Shang Qi stood at the door, rubbing his palms, looked at Yan Gao and sneered: "Yan Gao, you told me something happened, so you came here to see Huang Jiayin?"
Yan Gao pursed his lips and looked at him defensively.
Qiao Ze put his hands in his coat pockets casually, and looked at him with a smile: "Huang Chang knows all the cooperation between me and the general manager, and Huang Jiayin also knows the action plan for that day. I don't believe it if we say that there is no one in us of."
"That's why I thought about concluding with Mr. Shang to find out the moths in our place." Qiao Ze continued, "I sent you the text message from Huang Jiayin's mobile phone, and the same message was also sent to Su Ming. , apart from the three of us, the only ones who knew the action plan that night were you and Su Ming. I said in a text message that the fake police incident caused another disturbance, and I asked you to meet in Room 301 of the Weima River Clubhouse. Whoever comes will prove who Knowing the inside story, who has a ghost in his heart."
Yan Gao's complexion suddenly became ugly.
Qiao Ze looked at him and his expression remained unchanged: "Huang Jiayin offered advice to Mr. Shang that day. I guess, there were at least two purposes. One is to use the hands of Mr. Shang to destroy Lu Miao, and the other is to destroy Su Ming. Huang Jia Yin knew in her heart that I was not a policeman, and her goal was only Lu Miao from the beginning to the end. As long as Lu Miao was destroyed, her goal would be achieved. For Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu, Lu Miao proved that I am not a policeman, and she was indirectly eluted. I was accused of leaking information. But the police still came, so it could only be the other of us. You are the person arranged by Mr. Huo, and you are on the same line as Mr. Shang, so he may not suspect it You, the only possible one is Su Ming.
"You are someone close to Mr. Shang, but in the past six months, Mr. Shang has become more and more dependent on Su Ming. In order to prevent yourself from becoming the second A Jun, you decided to act first and ruin Su Ming. It's just you Unexpectedly, the level of the fake police was too low, and the real police were provoked if they were not dealt with cleanly. Not only was it published in the newspaper, but the Shang Zong was also investigated as the mastermind behind the scenes, which led to the abort of your plan.
"It is impossible for Mr. Shang not to notice that there is a traitor among his own people, and it was arranged by Huang Jiayin. He is just afraid of the status of the Huang family in the company, so he can only suffer from this dumb loss. This is where Huang Jiayin has no fear. So even if she knew something was wrong with the plan, she didn't even apologize or explain to Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu. She didn't care whether everything she designed would destroy the cooperative relationship between Mr. Shang and me. Or for her, directly destroy Even better, that is the plan to kill three birds with one stone."
He smiled slightly at Yan Gao: "Am I guessing right?"
Yan Gao paled and said nothing.
Shang Qi folded his palms and patted it lightly: "It really is a good plan." He asked him, "Yan Gao, haven't I been good enough to you these few years?"
Yan Gao pursed his lips: "I'm sorry for Mr. Shang."
Shang Qi: "So you admitted that you hooked up with Huang Jiayin to design me, right?"
Yan Gao didn't speak.
Shang Qi suddenly lost his temper, kicked Yan Gao to the ground, drew his gun and wanted to kill him.
Qiao Ze covered the gun with his palm and moved his gun away: "Mr. Shang, do you want to call the police again?"
"Yan Gao must be eliminated, otherwise our plan will be meaningless once he gets in touch with Huang Jiayin." He walked towards Yan Gao, picked him up, and looked at Shang Qi, "Shang Anyway, why don't you hand it over to me?"
Shang Qi looked at him: "What are you going to do?"
Qiao Ze glanced at Yan Gao: "He is Huang Chang's man, so naturally he treats him in his own way."
Shang Qi thought of Gao Yuan who was bitten by the Tibetan mastiff that he saw in Huang's villa yesterday, and nodded.
Qiao Ze called Tang Yuan and asked him to come in and take him away.
Qiao Ze turned around and looked at Shang Qi: "Mr. Shang, I have done what I promised you. What about what you promised me?"
Shang Qi was suppressed by Huang Chang so much that he was already full of cowardice, and this time he was blatantly put on by Huang Jiayin. He didn't even apologize afterwards, but because of his status, he forcibly held back and didn't pursue it. The dissatisfaction reached the extreme, and now Qiao Ze was willing to help him pull Huang Chang down. Stimulated by the urgent need to feel proud, he readily agreed.
Qiao Ze's plan was very simple. Since Huang Jiayin played a fake police scene for them, they would use the power of the police to arrest Huang Chang.
As long as Huang Chang is taken, Shang Qi will naturally take his place.
Shang Qi couldn't find a chance to attack Huang Chang in the past, and he was afraid that Mr. Huo would become suspicious and hurt himself if he got into a big trouble; it would be like scratching an itch for Huang Chang if it was small, so he could only use Wu Manman to think about it. Get close to Huang Jiayin through her, and find opportunities from Huang Jiayin.
Joze's plan solved all his concerns, so he quickly agreed.
Qiao Ze went back after talking with Shang Qi, but he didn't go home, so he went to Tang Yuan's place instead.
Tang Yuan has just returned, and Yan Gao has been secretly detained.
"How are you?" Qiao Ze straight to the point as soon as he entered the room.
"It's locked." Tang Yuan took two cans of drinks from the refrigerator, and threw one to him, "How about Shang Qi?"
Qiao Ze hooked the pull ring to lift the bottle cap, and took a moment to glance at him: "I'm the one who can play tricks like Huang Jiayin, is there anything he can't handle?"
Tang Yuan smiled, and patted his shoulder heavily: "Stop stinking farts."
Qiao Ze raised his head and took a sip of his drink, and then looked at him: "Help me find a reliable special effects team, and make me a 1-minute video, just imitating the video of Gao Yuan being bitten by a Tibetan mastiff, and blocking Shang Qi's Mouth, lest he think of it one day and become suspicious."
Tang Yuan gave him an OK gesture: "Wrap it on me."
"Be realistic, be quick!" Qiao Ze urged, and was about to continue, when the phone rang and a text message came in, it was Lu Miao who asked him when he would be back.
She knew that he invited Huang Jiayin to dinner today, but he didn't explain the whole plan of action to her in detail. Qiao Ze guessed that he didn't come back all afternoon and all night, so she couldn't sit still.
She has never taken the initiative to care about his whereabouts, this is the first time since she met him.
Qiao Ze's mood was inexplicably elevated because of her text message. Looking at the text message, even the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, evoking a slight smile.
He didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, but he was busy all day, either facing Huang Jiayin or Shang Qi, and he really couldn't find a chance to report.
Seeing the smile on the corner of his mouth, Tang Yuan clicked his tongue a few times, and looked at him teasingly: "A text message from Xiaolumiao?"
Qiao Ze glanced at him: "When did it become your family?"
Tang Yuan: "Isn't it our family who joined our action team? That is the existence of comrades-in-arms and family members."
Qiao Ze didn't refute him, he turned sideways, and he had already called Lu Miao back.
"Are you still asleep?" he asked.
Lu Miao: "Not yet."
"I'll be back in a while." He whispered, his voice softening unconsciously.
Lu Miao on the other end of the phone said: "Then I may have to be late, I'm here at Qiao Shi."
Qiao Ze was silent for two seconds: "Why did you go there?"
Lu Miao: "Little Qiao wanted to see Lu Bao, so she came to play for a while, and then she wanted me to go to her house to play, so I came here together." Then, as if she was afraid that he might misunderstand, she clarified, "By the way , I didn't send the text message just now, it was Qiao Shi who sent it with my mobile phone. If you have something to do, you should do it first. "
Qiao Ze was silent for a while: "I'll pick you up now."
Lu Miao hung up the phone, always feeling that Qiao Ze's tone afterwards was not quite right.
Qiao Shi was on the side, hating her for being weak: "Why did you tell me that I sent text messages for you?"
Lu Miao: "I'm afraid he might misunderstand." He added, "It's not good if he's busy."
"Fart, if he's really busy and you can't even find anyone, he'll love this kind of misunderstanding." When mentioning this, Qiao Shi couldn't help being persuasive to Lu Miao. Appropriately show concern for him. Don't look at his calm face, his heart has already blossomed, and he has become more obedient than Lu Bao."
Lu Miao: "..."
Qiao Shi continued: "A narrow-minded man like my brother holds grudges very much."
Lu Miao: "..."
Qiao Ze arrived at Qiao Shi's house half an hour later.
Joe opened the door for him.
As soon as he entered the house, he looked for someone inside: "Where is Lu Miao?"
Qiao Shi gave Lu Miao a "you're done" look at Lu Miao who was on the sofa.
Little Qiao was playing with Lu Miao on the sofa, but when she heard Qiao Ze's voice, she slid off the sofa and ran towards Qiao Ze calling "Uncle, Uncle".
Qiao Ze bent over and picked her up, and asked her, "Where's auntie?"
The little girl shook her head blankly: "There is no aunt."
Qiao Shi corrected her: "Sister."
Little Qiao immediately turned her head to point to Lu Miao: "My sister is over there."
Qiao Ze corrected: "I want to call you aunt, little aunt."
Little Qiao shook her head firmly: "Sister is nice."
Qiao Shi laughed straight at the side: "Brother, look, even a two-year-old child knows that his name is not right and his speech is not right, so he can't yell."
Lu Miao stood up and walked towards him: "Are you done?"
She was still embarrassed to be too intimate with him in front of outsiders.
Qiao Ze hummed, and lowered his head to tease Little Qiao.
Qiao Shi secretly looked at Lu Miao, encouraged her to use what she learned, and asked Qiao Ze to act coquettishly and show her concern.
Lu Miao couldn't do it well in front of outsiders. She hesitated for a while, but she still stepped forward and hugged his arm, and asked him: "Why did you eat with Huang Jiayin for so long today?"
Joze: "There's something wrong."
His voice sounded very weak, but he pulled out his arm and hugged her back into his arms. Then, when he returned Little Qiao to Qiao, he greeted Shen Yu who came over, exchanged a few pleasantries and took him with him. Lu Miao left first.
As soon as Lu Miao got into the car, he was dragged into Qiao Ze's arms, and looked at her eye to eye, nose to nose.
"Your boyfriend is already dating other women, so you don't have to worry about him cheating, huh?"
Lu Miao: "A man who really wants to cheat will not ask this question."
Joze: "..."
Since we met till now, she always blocked him with a serious or blank expression, but she didn't realize it herself.
Lu Miao watched his eyes deepen, as if he wanted to deal with her again, but she showed weakness first, and held his hand softly.
"Why don't you go to work? I'm so jealous. Besides, you won't lie to me. If you happen to have something to do, I send a text message and I'm worried that it will bring you danger. "
After a few words, the pent-up breath in Qiao Ze's heart also dissipated. Who is the one who is stubborn to the end...
His palms were itchy, and Qiao Ze pinched her cheek fiercely: "Don't just give a candy, and then slap her backhand, can you just pretend that you sent the text message yourself?"
Lu Miao: "..."
Joze ignored her and bowed his head to kiss her.
Lu Miao pursed her swollen lips, and turned to look at him: "I remember you were serious before, why are you becoming so lustful now?"
"Is there?" Joze took the time to glance at her.
Lu Miao nodded seriously: "I think so."
Qiao Ze said silently: "Then you have to consider the issue of compensation. You have turned a man who doesn't have heavy desires into what he is now, and you have a lot of responsibility."
Lu Miao lightly bumped him with an elbow: "Obviously I'm the one who suffers."
Qiao Ze: "It's not you who moved."
Lu Miao: "..."
Seeing her angry appearance out of the corner of his eyes, Joze's mood also improved. Taking advantage of the green light on the opposite side turning red, he stopped the car, withdrew his hand from the steering wheel, and put it on her hair to comfort the little girl. Like a cat, gently rubbing and smoothing her hair.
Lu Miao tilted her head and didn't want him to succeed. Just when she raised her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the people in the cars parked side by side outside the car window, her expression changed suddenly, she pulled Qiao Ze's hand, turned around and opened the car door, hurriedly Push the door and get off.
Her reaction was so sudden that Joze didn't turn his attention all of a sudden. He only saw her get out of the car in a hurry, quickly circled the windshield, and walked towards the car beside him waiting for the red light.
He glanced into the car subconsciously, his face changed slightly when he saw Lu Xiaocheng on the co-pilot, and he quickly pushed the door to get out of the car.
Lu Xiaocheng in the car seemed to have seen Lu Miao, and turned his head away pretending to be inadvertent. The glass of the car was quickly shaken up, and the car also turned into the road on the left when the light turned green.
Lu Miao chased after her instinctively, forgetting that she was still in the middle of the road, the car braked sharply, and Qiao Ze quickly pulled her back.
"That... that just now... my brother..." Lu Miao was very anxious, and even started to speak incoherently, with both palms unconsciously pinching Qiao Ze's palm tightly, "I seem to have seen him... just left Did he not recognize me in that car... Can you help me chase him..."
"Okay, let's go back to the car first." Joze comforted her, half-forced her back into the car, and started the car.
Lu Miao anxiously pointed to the road on the left: "Turn left, that black car just now."
Joze glanced at her silently, turned the steering wheel and followed, but his speed was not fast, at least such a speed was not suitable for tracking a car.
Lu Miao became more and more anxious, unconsciously grasping his hand with both hands, urging him: "Hurry up...you'll lose track later..."
Her anxiety made Qiao Ze more silent, he pursed his lips slightly, and sped up a little.
He didn't expect such a coincidence to meet Lu Xiaocheng here, and let her see it before he found out.
Lu Xiaocheng is obviously avoiding Lu Miao.No matter what the reasons are for him avoiding her, just because he thinks about Lu Miao in everything, before investigating the reason clearly, he chose to stand by Lu Xiaocheng's side and hide it from Lu Miao for him.
So after tracking him around, Qiao Ze still "lost" Lu Xiaocheng.
Lu Miao was a little bit shocked, as if he was in a state of collapse, he sat on the back of the chair, frowned, bit his lip, looking very dazed.
"Why doesn't he want to see me?" She asked, completely at a loss as to why she couldn't figure it out.
This kind of her made him feel a little distressed. He hugged her and comforted her in a low voice: "Maybe it's just that you recognized the wrong person. It has been so many years, Lu Xiao has grown up a lot, and it is impossible to be exactly the same as before. Now the sky is changing Dark, it is normal to admit the wrong person. If he is really Lu Xiaocheng, it is impossible to ignore you. "
"Impossible..." Lu Miao still struggled, "That person just now was clearly him..."
"If it's really Lu Xiaocheng, he has such a good relationship with you, why would he deny you?" Qiao Ze looked at her and asked.
Lu Miao opened her mouth, unable to answer.
He gently rubbed her hair: "Don't think about it, Lu Xiaocheng knows you are looking for him, and will definitely come back."
Lu Miao nodded hesitantly and pursed the corners of her mouth. Qiao Ze couldn't tell from her expression how much she believed, or she just pretended to believe it to prevent him from worrying.
After getting along day and night for so long, he knows her too well, he looks dumb, but his thoughts are more careful than anyone else, and he can't be fooled by just a few words, she may even guess that he is deliberately delaying time.
It's just that she didn't show a half-seeing look, and it's not easy for him to try.She didn't ask any more questions, it was like the past, and she didn't mention it again the next day.
She went to work during the day, and while she was not at home, Qiao Ze went back to the bureau and called up Zhang Qi's personal information.
Zhang Qi was extradited from Macau by Lu Miao a while ago. At that time, because Qiao Ze focused on the case, he didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Qi's situation, and his understanding of him was limited to the information he asked Shen Qiao to check. , and Lu Miao said lightly that he is a little hooligan who loves to chase female students.
A seemingly inconspicuous person may be someone who understands the ins and outs of Lu Xiaocheng's case.
Qiao Zetuo sinks the bridge and finds Zhang Qi's foothold.
His hometown is in the countryside, his family is poor, his grandparents and parents are still alive, but he came out early to hang out alone.After working for more than ten years, all the money I earned was taken away by drugs. Now I am extradited and have no place to stay. I live with a few construction workers in my hometown on the construction site, on the construction site of the community in Xicheng District, Ancheng. Under the dozens of stories of scaffolding, a simple shed was built on the ground floor, and dozens of people were crowded there.
When Qiao Ze passed by, they were off work, and a large table of people was eating around the big table.
He waited in the dark for everyone to finish eating, until Zhang, who put down his rice bowl, got up and walked out through the back door before following him.
The back door is an undeveloped alley, narrow and deep, with dim lights and no one there.
After crossing the alley, there is a small bustling business district.
Qiao Ze silently followed Zhang Qi to a secluded place, and suddenly grabbed him, with his hands behind his back, pressing against the wall.
Zhang Qi was so frightened that he almost screamed.
Qiao Ze pressed his arm slightly hard: "Don't move around."
Zhang Qi couldn't see the people behind him, and he didn't dare to speak casually, begging for mercy in a tight voice.
"I'll just ask a few questions, and you can answer them honestly," Qiao Ze said.
Zhang Qi nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Say what you say."
Qiao Ze: "What's your relationship with Lu Xiaocheng?"
A little panic and confusion appeared in Zhang Qi's eyes because of the word "Lu Xiaocheng", and he asked him: "What is your relationship with Lu Xiaocheng?"
Qiao Ze exerted a little more force on his palm: "Answer what I ask, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Qi nodded quickly.
Qiao Ze repeated: "What's the relationship?"
"It's the former brother."
Qiao Ze: "The night Lu Xiaocheng disappeared, were you there?"
Zhang Qi: "In the beginning." He quickly added, "I was captured by Ren Yu."
Qiao Ze: "Where is Ren Yu?"
Zhang Qi: "Dead."
Qiao Ze frowned: "How did you die?"
"It was Lu Xiaocheng's sister, Lu Miao who killed him."
Qiao Ze's complexion changed, and he raised his leg suddenly and slammed into his stomach: "What the hell are you talking about?"
Zhang Qi was hit so hard that he almost knelt on the wall, and he didn't dare to struggle. He was about to cry: "I really didn't talk nonsense. At that time, Ren Yu wanted to rape her in front of us, and Lu Xiaocheng was desperate Pulling him and refusing to let him, Ren Yu became angry at that time, threw a bag of Magu to Lu Xiaocheng, and teased him that if he dared to smoke, he would let Lu Miao go. Lu Xiaocheng really took it and sucked it, Lu Miao desperately wanted to go Ren Yu got annoyed at once, grabbed Lu Xiaocheng's half-sucked bag and threw it to her, telling her that if she smoked it for him, he would let Lu Xiaocheng go. Lu Miao wanted to touch it, but Lu Xiaocheng refused to let it go, he snatched it up and smoked it all, a little too much, and the whole person was unconscious.
"That thing can also stimulate people's sexual desire. Ren Yu is a pervert. He is addicted to playing with siblings. He tied Lu Miao and threw it in front of Lu Xiaocheng. Lu Xiaocheng was already unconscious at that time. Just wanted to violate Lu Miao. Lu Miao kept crying and crying, and then she was like crazy, she didn’t know how to break free from the rope, grabbed the stone on the ground and threw it at Ren Yu’s head fiercely. Don’t you Knowing how frightening she was at that time, she was completely crazy, so ruthless, everyone was frightened stupid..."
When mentioning that scene, Zhang Qi's face was terrified, and Qiao Ze couldn't read the slightest trace of lying from his reaction.
"And then?" he asked.
"Later Brother Xu brought someone here..."
From Zhang Qi's intermittent description, Qiao Ze pieced together a general idea.
That night, Ren Yu led people to take Lu Miao and Lu Xiaocheng captive into the wild forest, and wanted to rape her in front of everyone. She resisted desperately, and Lu Xiaocheng also desperately held him. This action made him feel betrayed. Ren Yu, who was in a rage, completely lost control. Regardless of Lu Xiaocheng's pleading on his knees, he used Lu Xiaocheng's innocence to force Lu Xiaocheng to take Magu, and at the same time threatened Lu Miao with Lu Xiaocheng's life and death, forcing her to smoke The remaining half-pack of drugs.Lu Xiaocheng's resistance disrupted Ren Yu's plan, he snatched Lu Miao's share of the drug, and did not let Lu Miao touch it.In order to force her to surrender, Ren Yu tied her hands and threw her in front of Lu Xiaocheng, who was stunned by the drug stimulation... Lu Miao, who was driven into a desperate situation, completely collapsed, broke free from the rope unexpectedly, grabbed the The stone smashed hard on Ren Yu's head...
A man who claimed to like her and wanted to pursue her, because of her refusal and the mischievous pursuit of another gangster, vented all his resentment on her and her family, playing with her like a guinea pig. Their siblings pushed her into a desperate situation step by step, enjoying her pain and despair.
At that time, she was just an inexperienced middle school student, and she didn't have enough ability to resist.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine how hopeless and helpless she was at that time, and she never showed the slightest vulnerability or complaint in front of others, and even talked about that experience with him lightly, as if it didn't exist.
But all the scars have been engraved in her bones. Her resistance to telling others that she likes her, and her ignorance of all the confessions of the opposite sex may just be instinctive self-protection in the subconscious.
This kind of encounter, the experience of being abandoned when I was young, all made the word "like" become like a wolf and a beast.
It's hard for Qiao Ze to imagine how much fate will destroy a little girl's life.
She worked hard to get out again and again, but was beaten back to her original shape by fate again and again.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine how desperate she would be if Lu Xiaocheng was really involved in drug trafficking, facing a Lu Xiaocheng who had no way of turning back.
When he got home, seeing Lu Miao sleeping curled up on the sofa with a pillow in his arms, Qiao Ze's throbbing heart throbbed faintly again.He loves her, loves her past without him, but in the future with his participation, there are some things that he still can't avoid for her.
She obviously didn't do anything, even she was kind and optimistic all the time, but she was always pushed from heaven to hell by fate time and time again like a trick of good fortune.
She can live the way she is now, and he thinks he should be grateful to her.
It's not how good fate is to her, it's just that she has been working hard to fight against fate.
She tried hard to make him feel bad.
He could only relieve the discomfort in his chest by exhaling slowly, and walked towards her.
She had already fallen asleep, her face was as quiet and soft as ever, without any aggression.Ever since he met her, she has always been gentle and calm, even a little silly. From the beginning to the end, she has a pure and harmless soft temperament, which is not ostentatious, but can make people feel peaceful.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine the stern look on this gentle and well-behaved face.
If he hadn't been extremely desperate, he wouldn't have had such explosive power and resistance, he thought.
He doesn't know if she killed someone or not. In Zhang Qi's later description, just when she was crazy and smashed Ren Yu's head with a stone, Xu Jiayan brought people over in time and tied them all away. .Zhang Qi is no longer clear about what happened later, but Xu Jiayan helped them smuggle to Macau in order to prevent them from divulging what happened that night, and gave them a large amount of hush money, and no one asked about him in the past few years in Macau. mentioned it.
Joze didn't know what the truth was.
Lu Miao also told him about that night, but in her description, she passed out that night, and both Lu Xiaocheng and Ren Yu disappeared.
With Lu Miao's single-minded temperament, it was impossible for her to lie to him, but Zhang Qi's reaction did not seem to be lying, and Xu Jiayan's "calling the police" after the incident also confirmed Zhang Qi's not lying.
He checked all the police materials and confession files in those years. Xu Jiayan did not call the police, and there was no statement that Lu Miao thought he had recorded.
If what Zhang Qi said is true, all this makes sense.
Lu Miao accidentally hurt someone, Xu Jiayan concealed it for her in order to protect her.
Because Lu Xiaocheng almost "violated" her, he felt ashamed to see her again and chose to escape.
This is the most reasonable explanation.
But Ren Yu is a living person who disappeared overnight and has not been heard from for several years. Logically speaking, it is impossible not to be discovered.
Qiao Ze checked the missing persons register, and there was no such person as Ren Yu.
Normally speaking, Lu Miao at that time was a legitimate self-defense, even if he reported to the police, there was no issue of criminal responsibility.
Except for Lu Xiaocheng whose whereabouts are a mystery, Xu Jiayan is probably the only one who knows the truth.
Qiao Ze decided to ask Xu Jiayan to talk.
Before asking Xu Jiayan, Qiao Ze tried to find Lu Xiaocheng's whereabouts first.
He asked Deputy Liu to find someone to call out the traffic monitoring of that night, trying to find Lu Xiaocheng from the monitoring.
When he went to check the surveillance cameras, he met Yao Lingling who was also looking for the surveillance cameras, and he also checked the car that night.
Qiao Ze figured out the reason as soon as he thought about it.
"Lu Miao asked you to find it?" He asked.
Yao Lingling's face was obviously conflicted, but under his staring eyes, she still nodded hesitantly: "She told me not to tell anyone."
Qiao Ze nodded knowingly, not surprised, if he could fool him with a few words, then he wouldn't be Lu Miao.
But it wasn't time for her to know about it.
"Leave this matter to me. I'll tell her later. Don't mention it to her. If she asks you, just say you're still looking into it." He urged.
Yao Lingling hesitated, but still nodded lightly.
Qiao Ze spent half a day comparing the monitoring, and quickly found Lu Xiaocheng's car. The second half of the car drove into the monitoring blind spot, heading west, in the countryside, the license plate was under Shang Qi's name.
With this only clue, it is still impossible to accurately determine Lu Xiaocheng's whereabouts for a while.
A person who has been hiding for five years and who appears in front of everyone as Mr. Huo cannot be easily found.
Qiao Ze's heart trembled because of the word "Mr. Huo", and a bold conjecture formed in his heart, which was very vague but could not be ignored.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his beating heart, and called Tang Yuan: "Tang Yuan, call Lu Miao back."
When Qiao Ze directly called him "Tang Yuan" instead of "Tang Yuan", Tang Yuan understood the seriousness of the situation. He suppressed his usual laughter and hummed: "What's the situation?"
"I can't tell." Qiao Ze couldn't grasp what flashed through his mind, "The work on Lu Miao... find a way to stop for a while."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Ze went to find Shen Qiao and asked him to help investigate Ren Yu's background.
When Shen Qiao was young, he was also in the "jianghu". He was just a gangster, and he became honest after being dealt with by Shen Yu. He was no stranger to the word "Ren Yu". When he heard that Qiao Ze wanted to inquire about Ren Yu's situation, he immediately He patted his thigh and said, "Isn't that the gangster on the same line, I know him well."
Qiao Ze stood opposite him and glanced at him: "I want to know his height, weight, and body shape. It's best to have a photo, a full body photo, and a back photo."
Shen Qiao was taken aback: "There are no photos. I haven't seen him for several years, so I don't have any photos of him."
Qiao Ze nodded: "Then describe his height, body shape, and appearance. It is best to have a reference, such as who his body looks like."
Shen Qiao tilted his head and frowned for a while: "I'm about 1.8 meters tall, and her figure is quite well-proportioned. I really can't tell who she looks like."
It's like didn't say.
Joze looked at him motionless.
Shen Qiao spread his hands: "I haven't seen him for almost ten years, so I don't know what he looks like now. But he is a well-known gangster leader in our place. Apart from his grandparents, he is the only one in the family. He started at the age of twelve or thirteen. I often got into the police station because of fights, and I even recruited a small gang. I have been messing around on the road all the time, and it was very prosperous. I was in prison for two years before I was honest, and after I got out, I hung out for a few years. I don’t know where the money came from, so I opened a restaurant by myself, the scale is not small, I guess I made a lot of money, and then closed it, saying that I went to Thailand to do business, so there is no news.”
Qiao Ze frowned: "When did you move away?"
Shen Qiao: "About five years ago."
Joze: "How many months?"
Shen Qiao frowned and thought for a while: "It should be at the end of the year."
Qiao Ze remembered that Lu Miao and Lu Xiaocheng had an accident in September.In Zhang Qi's description, Lu Miao killed Ren Yu at the time, but Ren Yu's restaurant stopped working around December. According to the public, he went to Thailand, and Lu Miao said that Ren Yu disappeared after that night. up.
Qiao Ze pondered for a while, suppressed the unreasonable information, and asked Shen Qiao if he had seen Ren Yu in the past few years.
Shen Qiao spread his hands: "He and I are not in the same world, and we don't go to his restaurant to eat, one in the east and the other in the west, how can we meet people?"
"When did his family die?"
"He only has his grandparents. He was pissed off when he was arrested and imprisoned, and they all left after a while. He is a loner with no family."
Qiao Ze nodded thoughtfully, patted Shen Qiao on the shoulder, and asked him to find a way to get a photo of Ren Yu and find out the last batch of employees before his restaurant was disbanded.
He asked someone to check the entry and exit records of the past few years, and there was no such person as Ren Yu.
Qiao Ze invited Xu Jiayan to dinner at night, this was the first time Qiao Ze asked him out, Xu Jiayan seemed very surprised, but still agreed.
Qiao Ze made an appointment at a Chinese restaurant in the urban area, and he arrived a little earlier, dressed like a business elite with a neat suit.
Xu Jiayan arrived more than ten minutes later than him, and Xu Jiaqian also secretly followed him. Not long after Xu Jiayan took his seat, he pretended to meet him and popped out, pulled a chair and sat down opposite Qiao Ze.
Qiao Ze hadn't seen the brothers and sisters of the Xu family for a while.
Ever since Xu Jiayan asked Lu Miao to apologize that time, he seemed to have completely excluded himself from her life and never bothered her again. Lu Miao has also been busy dealing with Shang Qi and Wu Manman. Contact Xu Jiayan again.
Xu Jiayan probably guessed that Lu Miao and him were already together, and when he saw him, he asked casually, "Did Miao Miao not come?"
"She's going to work."
Qiao Ze picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea. Xu Jiaqian held the teacup in both hands and handed it over, smiling at him, "Brother Qiao, why don't you let my sister ask for leave and come over for dinner together, everyone long time no see."
Xu Jiayan looked at her sideways: "What are you doing here?"
Xu Jiaqian: "Let's play." He pestered Qiao Ze again to strike up a conversation, Qiao Ze had turned his gaze away, looked at Xu Jiayan, and said straight to the point: "Mr. There are some things about Yu, but the explanation she gave me is different from what others gave me, and there are some things that I might want to know about from Mr. Xu."
Xu Jiayan took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "Where did you hear that?"
"Miao Miao took the initiative to say something, and some things were said by Zhang Qi."
Xu Jiayan paused and looked at him: "Zhang Qi?"
Joze nodded, watching his expression.
At the beginning, Lu Miao tried everything possible to extradite Zhang Qi back to Ancheng, but then she stopped doing anything, which was not in line with her temperament.Qiao Ze guessed that Zhang Qi had been hidden by Xu Jiayan since he was extradited here, just like five years ago, he tried his best to avoid meeting Lu Miao and Zhang Qi.
Although Lu Miao is smart, but has no connections, and facing Xu Jiayan who knows her well, it is impossible for her to find Zhang Qi by herself.
Xu Jiayan looked at Qiao Ze with a trace of inquiry at this moment.
Qiao Ze smiled slightly: "I happened to meet Lu Miao looking for him when I was in Macau. I just happened to meet him in some business I did recently, so I chatted with him for a while."
Xu Jiaqian, who had been silent all this time, raised his hand suddenly: "Ask me, I was there that night."
Xu Jiayan suddenly darkened his face and looked at her: "Go home."
Xu Jiaqian pouted unhappily: "I'll go back when I go back." She lowered her head and found a business card from her bag and handed it to him, "Brother Qiao, you are welcome to come and find me."
She glanced at Xu Jiayan proudly, then turned and left.
Qiao Ze stared at Xu Jiaqian's back for a long time. When he first met her, he only thought of her as a spoiled little girl who was bold and willful.But after a series of events, from her being kidnapped, designing Li Junhao, forcing Chen Qi to go to the scene of Li Yuanxiang's kidnapping, and now talking about that night calmly, Xu Jiaqian made him a little puzzled.
He tightened his hand holding the business card, looked at Xu Jiayan, and waited for his answer.
Xu Jiayan kept silent and asked him instead: "What did they say?"
Qiao Ze relayed Zhang Qi's words one by one.
Xu Jiayan shook his head and smiled: "That's a psychopath, talking nonsense, unable to catch up with Miaomiao, looking for opportunities to slander her."
Qiao Ze nodded in understanding: "What happened that night? Is it convenient for Mr. Xu to disclose it?"
Xu Jiayan returned him an inquiring look: "What is Mr. Qiao's position to inquire about her past?"
Qiao Ze: "Her man." He added, "I want to know her."
"Mr. Qiao." Xu Jiayan pondered for a while, "For the sake of Miao Miao's reputation, it is better to let something pass. If you mind her past, please don't provoke her."
Qiao Ze looked at his face and judged the meaning contained in his words.
In the end, Qiao Ze just nodded knowingly: "I know. But Mr. Xu may have misunderstood something. Although I am with Miao Miao, we are not the relationship you think we are. We each take what we need, so sometimes we need Have a relatively in-depth understanding of each other's past."
One sentence made Xu Jiayan turn cold, and looked at him coldly.
Joze looked at him quietly.
Xu Jiayan's temper gradually suppressed, and a faint smile even slowly emerged from the corner of his mouth: "I hope Qiao will always remember what you said today."
He nodded apologetically and turned to leave.
Qiao Ze watched his back gradually go away, closed his eyelids, reached out to take the teacup, and took a sip lightly, thoughtfully.
A phone call from Lu Miao interrupted his contemplation.
"Tangyuan said to let me rest for a while, what's going on?"
As soon as the phone was connected, her confused voice came through the other end of the phone, and the soft tone fell in his ears, making his heart soften.
He reached out to call for the waiter, paid the bill, stood up, and asked her softly, "Where are you now?"
"It's outside."
"Where is it, I'll pick you up."
Lu Miao is by the river.
Tang Yuan's notice came a little suddenly, and she was a little confused.
Because of the "breakup" between Qiao Ze and Shang Qi, she has stopped all work in Qixun Venture Capital on the surface, but the case is not over, so her private contact with Shang Qi, Wu Manman and others will still be broken. Yes, but Tang Yuan seemed to want her to quit the case completely.
He didn't make it very clear, but she figured out what it meant.
She didn't know what went wrong, and she couldn't accept this sudden transfer until she understood the reason.
After leaving Tang Yuan's place, she kept walking along the road, thinking while walking, and unknowingly came to the riverside.She can only call Qiao Ze for things she can't figure out, and she knows that he must understand the reason.
Qiao Ze came over soon, drove the car, and saw Lu Miao on the other side of the road leaning on the railing of the bridge and looking at the river from a distance.
Before coming here, he talked to Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan did express to Lu Miao that he wanted her to rest for a while, but he only asked her first, and didn't speak clearly.
He should have brought this matter up to Lu Miao first, but he didn't have enough reasons to convince her.
Her mind is too sensitive, and any reason from him may make her feel that something is wrong.
Lu Xiaocheng was involved in the case and basically couldn't run away. Whether Xu Jiayan has a part or not is not right for him to judge now.
There is no clue or sign that Xu Jiayan has a relationship with Mr. Huo. He was the last person to see Lu Xiaocheng, but it does not prove that Lu Xiaocheng has been with him in the past five years.
After that night, Lu Xiaocheng didn't know how to face himself who wanted to invade Lu Miao, so he chose to leave without saying goodbye, and it made sense for him to sneak into Mr. Huo's group by mistake.
In the morning, he asked Lu Miao to be recalled on the premise that Xu Jiayan was Mr. Huo.
But this kind of assumption is unreasonable. Xu Jiayan's growth trajectory, his experience and experience, it is impossible to control such a large drug trafficking group, and even make Huang Chang, Shang Qi and others bow their heads to him.
When eating with Xu Jiayan, he deliberately tested the relationship between Xu Jiayan and Mr. Huo on the grounds that he and Lu Miao each got what they needed.
Based on Xu Jiayan's concern for Lu Miao, if he is Mr. Huo, it is impossible not to trip him secretly, so the change of Shang Qi and Wu Manman's attitude towards him will become crucial, and even their love for Lu Miao Minor attitude changes too.
So Lu Miao should actually stay inside.
Rationally, he felt that he should continue to follow the original plan, and their work could no longer withstand the slightest change; but emotionally, he was actually not willing to let her go deeper.
Along the way, he was weighing whether Lu Miao retreated or not.
Concern leads to chaos. For the first time, he couldn't give himself a definite answer.
He decided to leave the decision to Lu Miao.
Lu Miao didn't know that Qiao Ze had arrived, until a warm overcoat was draped over his shoulders, accompanied by a deep male voice: "Why are you blowing outside?"
Lu Miao turned back instinctively, saw the tall figure standing beside him, and also saw the dark shirt he was wearing, grabbed his coat and wanted to take it off and return it to him, saying: "I'm not cold, don't you I have a cold."
Qiao Ze pressed her shoulders, and embraced her from behind with his clothes on: "I'm not cold."
Lu Miao couldn't move because he was hugged by him, so she stopped struggling, turned her head and asked him: "Tang Yuan said that I'm tired recently, and I hope I can rest for a while. He means let me quit, it's Team Xing's meaning." Or did you mean it? If it was your meaning, why didn't you tell me directly?"
Qiao Ze didn't hide it from her: "It's what I meant."
Lu Miao didn't show any displeasure because of his words, but asked him in confusion: "Why?"
"I don't want anything to happen to you."
Lu Miao stared into his eyes for a long time: "I think you are lying."
Qiao Ze hugged her tighter: "I can't worry about you anymore?"
Lu Miao: "You are not a person who ignores the overall situation."
"And..." She was silent for a while, "It may be too late for me to retreat now, Huang Jiayin came to find me today."
He retracted his arms slightly and looked down at her: "What does she want from you?"
"Just chatting casually, she didn't do anything else." A little confusion flashed across Lu Miao's face, "But what I heard from her was that his father admired me a lot and hoped that I could go to work with them. I feel that her so-called work is actually helping to transport drugs."
Qiao Ze frowned: "Why did Huang Chang find you for no reason?"
Lu Miao couldn't understand either, and shook his head blankly: "I don't know either."
"The reason Huang Jiayin gave is similar to the reason why you took a fancy to me at the beginning. They said that people like me are not easy to be suspicious of, and they offered me a high salary." Lu Miao compared a number to him, "And from what she said, it seems that Huang Chang instructed her to come to me, not what she wanted to find."
Qiao Ze's eyebrows twitched, and there was a puzzlement on his face that she couldn't understand.
He didn't seem to understand why Huang Chang would look for her.
"I want to try it." She tugged on Joze's sleeve lightly, "This is obviously an opportunity."
Qiao Ze denied her without even thinking about it: "No way. Gao Yuan and Zhang Quan couldn't escape, let alone Huang Jiayin."
"But this is indeed our opportunity." Lu Miao grabbed his hand, "Although Shang Qi and Wu Manman seem to have reached a cooperation with you, if you and I are completely out of the way, how could they really do it?" Peace of mind? It’s just that you and Shang Qi broke up too much before, and they can no longer keep me by their side, for fear that Huang Chang will be suspicious. Now Huang Chang has taken the initiative to let me participate. Come on, Shang Qi and Wu Manman will also be suspicious, right?"
Qiao Ze pursed his lips and didn't respond. He understood her concerns, but her going in meant that she had to bear all the dangers and uncertainties by herself.
The only thing he can't figure out now is why Huang Chang came to Lu Miao.
The only reason he could think of was himself, but Huang Chang had nothing to do with him.Huang Chang hated him, and he would just find someone to shoot him and he would be relieved. There was no need to attack Lu Miao in a roundabout way, unless it was Huang Jiayin's instruction.
No matter what the reason is, it is undoubtedly dangerous for Lu Miao to enter, but as Lu Miao said, this is an opportunity.
Whether Su Ming can participate in it is still unknown, but once Lu Miao enters, it is basically a certainty.
As long as Huang Jiayin is there, he will definitely push Lu Miao into the most dangerous and variable drug transportation link. In order to contain him, Shang Qi and Wu Manman will definitely push him secretly.
With someone inside, it is indeed easier for him to grasp the variables, and to force Huang Chang out, the possibility of killing them all will be greater.What he wanted was to force Huang Chang to come forward in person.
"Qiao Ze..." Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Lu Miao grabbed his arm and softly called out to him, her voice was so soft that water could be squeezed out, a bit coquettish, and a bit pleading.
She rarely called him by his name, and every time she called him in such a soft tone, he was completely helpless.
With a sigh, he finally hugged her tightly.
"Be safe." He urged.
Knowing the danger, but had to give it a try.
When he came back at night, he gave her a packet of the powdered stuff.
"Substitute this if you have to. Don't touch anything they give you, ever."
The next day he took her to Zhu Qi's place, and implanted a modified micro-locator chip into the subcutaneous tissue behind her ear. In theory, it could avoid ordinary wireless signal detectors, but it would not be 100%.
For people like Huang Chang and Shang Qi, any monitoring monitors are not suitable for wearing on their bodies. Most of them are anti-monitoring monitoring equipment. The only thing Qiao Ze asks for is that he must be able to grasp Lu Miao's exact location at any time. position.
After Lu Miao agreed to Huang Jiayin, Huang Jiayin asked her out, saying that her father wanted to meet her, and it was still in Huang Chang's villa, with the same garden and the same Tibetan mastiff.
After she went in this time, the Tibetan mastiff didn't attack her by surprise, but started to stare at her from the moment she came in.Four Tibetan mastiffs, entrenched on both sides of the road, roared at her.
As long as it doesn't attack suddenly like before, Lu Miao can still deal with these behemoths with ease.
She walked very slowly, and her eyes met the Tibetan mastiff on the side of the road.
Huang Jiayin was by her side, she came out to meet Lu Miao, seeing Lu Miao walking slowly, Huang Jiayin only thought she was afraid, and comforted her: "Don't worry, they won't attack you."
Huang Jiayin barked at the few Tibetan mastiffs, told them to go back, and led Lu Miao to the living room.
Huang Chang and A Jun were both there, personally standing at the door to greet her.
Seeing her approaching, a smile gradually appeared on Huang Chang's always serious face: "Miss Lu."
Lu Miao also greeted him politely.
Huang Chang welcomed her into the room, and after exchanging pleasantries, he asked her seemingly unintentionally: "Miss Lu, I remember that you are President Xu's younger sister."
Lu Miao didn't know how he would go around Xu Jiayan, remembering the first time he met Xu Jiayan when he came here, he nodded: "It's sort of."
Huang Chang laughed twice, said "fate", and then said: "I have some business contacts with Mr. Xu, this world is quite small."
Huang Jiayin was sitting on the side sofa, with a pale face, not showing much enthusiasm, but not too indifferent, leaning over to pick up the teapot and pour a few cups of tea, and when he put it down, he answered in a low voice: " It's quite small. When Manman and I met her, we didn't expect her to be from Jiang Xing."
She handed Lu Miao a cup of tea: "Drink tea."
"Thank you." Lu Miao took it, and drank it lightly, with a little restraint.
Huang Chang's attention was always on her, and she didn't look up casually, just drinking her tea cautiously.
After a long while, Huang Changcai returned to the subject: "Miaomiao, I hope you can come to work in our company. Did Jiayin tell you?"
Lu Miao took the teacup away a little, looked at him, and nodded hesitantly: "Yes, sister Jiayin mentioned it, but..." She gave Huang Chang a look of embarrassment.
Huang Chang: "Speak directly if you have something to say."
"Can I know why Huang Dong wants me to come to work?" She held the teacup with both hands slightly awkwardly, "I don't have any special talent, I'm still a newcomer."
"And..." she paused, "Mr. Huang should know about my relationship with Mr. Qiao. Don't you worry about me coming here like this?"
Her words seemed to make Huang Chang laugh.
He laughed a few times and asked her, "What are you worried about?"
Lu Miao pursed her lips: "For example, leaking secrets, leaking news or something."
Huang Chang glanced at her inexplicably: "You are all here with me, shouldn't he be the one to worry about?"
Lu Miao pursed her lips in embarrassment and stopped talking.
Huang Chang leaned over to refill her tea himself: "You are also Mr. Xu's younger sister. I can still trust Mr. Xu."
Lu Miao looked up at him.
Huang Chang didn't say any more, picked up the teacup and touched her: "You know that I have a grudge with you Joe, if you come here, you are not afraid of what I will do to you?"
Lu Miao shook her head: "You are my brother's friend. And since you asked sister Jiayin to ask me clearly, you will definitely not do anything to me. If you want to deal with me, there are many ways in secret Now, why put it on the surface and let people catch it."
"I'm just curious, Huang Dong, why did you come to me?" Lu Miao pursed her lips, looking at him with hesitation, "Uncle Huang, can I know the reason?"
Huang Chang: "I just love your innocence. And those who can work under Jiang Xing's hands are not bad, such as Gao Yuan back then."
"Is that the man who was bitten by a dog in the video that day?" Lu Miao asked hesitantly.
Huang Chang looked at her: "Didn't he tell you?"
Lu Miao shook his head: "I never knew his name was Jiang Xing before."
Huang Chang: "Are you afraid?"
She nodded honestly: "I'm afraid."
Huang Chang fixed his eyes on her face: "I remember you graduated from the police academy?"
Lu Miao nodded: "Yes, sister Jiayin and my brother both know that they were kicked out of the police force before the internship was over, and they failed."
Huang Chang: "With your background, Jiang Xing dares to use you."
"How dare he use me." Lu Miao was a little aggrieved when he mentioned this, "He won't tell me anything. You can ask Sister Man about this. I backed away, and everything was on guard against me. I followed him when I was studying, he saved me, and he also knew that I liked him, so I was sure that I would be devoted to him."
Huang Jiayin's face turned cold.
Huang Chang glanced at her, but Huang Jiayin ignored her with a cold face.
Huang Chang's eyes fell on Lu Miao again: "Why did you follow Mr. Qiao instead of Mr. Xu? Mr. Xu started his own company, his family business is stable, he is young and promising, and he doesn't seem like Mr. Qiao's life-threatening."
Lu Miao lowered her head: "Fuck doesn't like me."
Huang Chang didn't speak any more. After drinking some tea, he kept yawning, his forehead dripping with sweat.
While yawning, he stretched out his hand to A Jun, A Jun put a bag of drugs in his palm, he put it away, and looked at Lu Miao: "Miss Lu, do you want to try some, they are all pure goods."
Lu Miao nodded cheerfully: "Okay."
Ah Jun also gave her a bag, which was exactly the same shape as the one Qiao Zesai gave her.
Qiao Ze has been hiding by Huang Chang's side for a long time, and he has already grasped Huang Chang's temperament and habits clearly.
Ever since he got to know Qiao Ze, Lu Miao has always admired Qiao Ze, he is like a skilled chess player, he calculates every move clearly, and the score is perfect.
She grabbed the drugs thrown by A Jun. The thick winter coat and over-long sleeves gave her a good cover, allowing her to easily repack the things hidden in the sleeves, and then skillfully spread them out , inhale the powder slowly into the lungs.
Although it's not a real drug, it's a powder, and it's still uncomfortable to choke it into the respiratory tract. Lu Miao didn't dare to show the slightest bit of discomfort, and even had an expression of enjoyment on his face.Huang Chang and Huang Jiayin also seemed to enjoy her very much, and they didn't make things difficult for her afterwards, they just asked her how she felt and when it would be convenient for her to come over, and after chatting for a while, they sent her back.
Lu Miao has been enduring the discomfort in his nasal cavity, and when he got home, he couldn't take it anymore. As soon as he opened the door, he hurried to the bathroom, holding the wash basin and coughing fiercely.
Qiao Ze didn't know what was going on with her, so he hurriedly surrounded her from behind, asking her if she was taking drugs again, even his voice trembled unconsciously.
Lu Miao waved his hand at him, coughed up his breath, and then told Qiao Ze the conversation with Huang Chang in detail, and asked him to analyze it.
She really couldn't figure out what Huang Chang meant.
Qiao Ze listened to her quietly, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked her: "How many times did he mention your relationship with Xu Jiayan?"
Lu Miao frowned and thought for a while, then pointed three fingers at him: "Three times."
Qiao Ze nodded thoughtfully, but said nothing.
Lu Miao felt uneasy: "What's wrong?"
Qiao Ze shook his head: "It's okay, he might just want to use you to contain me."
Lu Miao snorted and didn't ask any more questions.
She went to Huang Chang's the next day, saying she was going to work, but in fact she didn't go to the company, she just followed Huang Jiayin, and they didn't let her be exposed in front of anyone.
Qiao Ze went to Tang Yuan and asked him to re-check Xu Yanghaiyun and all the relationship networks between Xu Jiayan and Huang Chang.
Shen Qiao is also continuing to investigate Ren Yu's whereabouts and his original relationship network.
After arranging everything, Qiao Ze made an appointment with Xu Jiaqian.
Xu Jiaqian seemed to have known that Qiao Ze would definitely ask him out, and when he came to the appointment, his steps were as brisk as if he was about to fly, and when he saw Qiao Ze, his eyes curled up with a smile.
"Brother Joe, I knew you would definitely ask me out."
Qiao Ze glanced at her calmly, and leaned his chin on the chair next to him: "Sit."
He poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "I remember when we first met you in Macau, you seemed to be very afraid of your sister."
Xu Jiaqian nodded calmly: "Yes."
She took the teacup, and suddenly approached him with her head, looking into his eyes without moving: "She's a lunatic."
Qiao Ze paused, met her eyes, and was so calm that he was a little scary: "Miss Xu, your sister almost died several times trying to save you."
"I know." Her eyes looked innocent, "I am also very grateful to my sister. But what I said is the truth, she is really crazy, my brother won't let me tell anyone, I like you I just told you."
Qiao Ze looked at her calmly: "What happened that night?"
Xu Jiaqian sat back on the seat: "I can't tell you now, only my own people can know about this, unless..."
She blinked at him, meaning.
Qiao Ze also slowly leaned back on the back of the chair, slowly wrapped his arms around his chest, and reminded her slowly: "Miss Xu, the one you want to seduce is your sister's man. She doesn't even care about her own safety for you, you Just repay her like this?"
Xu Jiaqian refused to accept it: "Where did I seduce you? I just gave you a chance to choose. Whether you want to accept it is up to you. And you are a drug dealer, how can you make my sister happy? She belongs to my brother."
"She belongs to your brother?" Qiao Ze pondered the words, took a sip from his wine glass, and turned his head to look at her.
Xu Jiaqian was not afraid of his eyes at all, and there was even a hint of rebellion in his eyes.
"She belongs to my brother. My brother loves her very much and has been waiting for her to graduate. If you didn't intervene inexplicably, they would have been together a long time ago. And, to be honest, with your job that can lose your head at any time, Why do you provoke my sister? What will happen to her if you die? "
Qiao Ze put down the cup lightly: "This problem doesn't exist for you?"
"That's different. My sister had a hard life when she was a child, so it's better to be safe and stable for the rest of her life. I grew up with rich clothes and fine food, and I've had enough of this kind of life like boiled water. I love to be with you desperate people." The disciples hang out together."
Qiao Ze shook his head and smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank the beer in one gulp without talking nonsense to her: "Miss Xu, let me tell you the truth, I don't want anyone except your sister."
He leaned forward a little and stared into her eyes: "If you really think about your sister, tell me what happened that night. Did your sister kill Ren Yu? Where did Lu Xiaocheng go? "
"I really can't tell you too much. I don't know too well. I followed my brother secretly. Later, my sister found out and was sent back. My sister really has a problem." Xu Jia Qian also calmed down, and pushed aside the bangs on the right side. There was a scar on the corner of her right eye that was as long as her index finger. She pointed with her finger, "Did you see it? My sister caught it that night. It's not that I want to slander her." , I think she really has a problem, unless she is pretending."
Qiao Ze put down the empty wine glass with a bang, stood up, asked the waiter to pay the bill, turned around and left.
Xu Jiaqian hurriedly stopped him: "I'm telling the truth, why do you all think I'm talking nonsense, my brother is like this, so are you."
Qiao Ze didn't have time to listen to her nonsense. Ever since he met Xu Jiaqian, she had always spoken in false ways, and she was a little crazy. Sometimes she looked innocent, sometimes she was deep in thought, sometimes she seemed brainless, and sometimes It seems to be calculating everywhere.
Xu Jiaqian chased him to the front of the car and knocked hard on his window.
Qiao Ze started the car and took a moment to look at her.
"If you don't like me, just reject me. It's not up to you. I can't test you for my sister?" She said anxiously as she followed the moving car, "I am also very grateful to my sister. , I feel sorry for my sister, okay? Didn’t you spoil her as a drug dealer? She used to want to be a policeman so much, but now you have led her into the ditch, and she is still taking drugs..."
Before finishing speaking, Qiao Ze suddenly stepped on the brakes.
He looked at her with sharp eyes: "how do you know she takes drugs?"
"Just...just..." Xu Jiaqian's words flickered, "Sister Manman said that. I really do my sister's best. I don't know what it means to let the rain not let the rain, if you mean that she used stones that night The person who smashed it, he is still alive. But my sister really has a problem, don't be fooled by appearances..."
"Where is he?" Joze interrupted her.
Xu Jiaqian shook his head: "I don't know. But I saw him last year."
"Where? When?"
Xu Jiaqian pursed her lips and refused to say: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
"Revenge!" Throwing down two words, Qiao Ze had already rolled up the window, and the car sped away.
He went back to the provincial capital and made an appointment with Team Xing.
"I want to thoroughly investigate Xu Yang Shipping, including all the overseas companies he has dealt with." He said, straight to the point.
Team Xing has long been used to his behavior, and glanced at him: "Do you have a clue?"
Qiao Ze: "No. There is also a man named Ren Yu who was also a drug dealer. It may be a breakthrough to investigate him with Xu Jiayan."
Team Xing: "Is there any indication that they have something to do with our case?"
Qiao Ze frowned. Strictly speaking, there was no such thing as Lu Xiaocheng appeared in Shang Qi's team. Xu Jiayan was the last person to see Lu Xiaocheng, but he deliberately concealed what happened that night and how he came back from the dead. Ren Yu, together with Huang Chang's sudden favor for Lu Miao, seems to have no causal relationship, but there may be some kind of connection.
There is great uncertainty in everything, Qiao Ze can only check with Xu Yanghaiyun and Ren Yu first to see if there are any possible clues.
"It's not like your style." Captain Xing looked at him and said, "Why did you suddenly think of checking these two?"
"Something happened recently." Qiao Ze said, the phone just rang, and a text message came in, so he took it over.
Team Xing didn't ignore his conditioned reflex action, and tapped on the table with his fingers, Qiao Ze raised his eyes and glanced at him.
Team Xing showed joy on his face: "Okay?"
He stood up, and patted Qiao Ze's shoulder heavily with his palm: "My good fellow, it turned out that my ears have recovered, why didn't you tell me, it made me worry for nothing all day long."
Qiao Ze smiled: "It's not completely recovered, it can only be said that it is recovering, and the decibels that can be captured are still lower than normal people."
"That's a good thing." Captain Xing couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder again, "When did it happen, why didn't you tell me?"
"It has been recovering, but it is relatively slow. I planned to give you a surprise when it was completely recovered, but I didn't expect it to escape your eyes."
Team Xing laughed. The recovery of Qiao Ze's ears gave him a great surprise, so he left Qiao Ze to celebrate for a while before letting him go back.
It was already late at night when he said goodbye to Team Xing and returned home.
The text message in the afternoon was sent by Lu Miao. Since she went to Huang Chang's company, in order to avoid suspicion, she moved back to the small apartment he rented for her.
The room was empty, and Qiao Ze was not used to it. He had only been together for a short time, but he was not used to the days without Lu Miao.
He sat in the living room for a while, picked up the keys on the coffee table, and drove to Lu Miao's place.
He doesn't have a fixed car, and he drives alternate cars, none of which is in his name, either from Shenqiao's side or someone else's.
A while ago, Shen Qiao reminded him that someone was checking his license plate, and he guessed it was Xu Jiayan, but he didn't take it to heart.At that time, Lu Miao often drove his car, Xu Jiayan was suspicious when he saw it, and it was understandable to ask someone to check the owner of the license plate. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that he can interpret other meanings.
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when he arrived at the apartment downstairs where Lu Miao lived. This place was owned by Shen Yu. There was a dedicated parking lot and elevators, which avoided many exposures.
He guessed that Lu Miao had already fallen asleep, so he didn't call her in advance, he just sent a message, but she didn't reply, it seemed that he was indeed asleep.
Qiao Ze had the key, so he wanted to open the door by himself, but he didn't expect a leg to slash him in the face as soon as the door was pushed open halfway. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and blocked the slash by bending his elbow on one side of his body. With the coming leg, the other hand took advantage of the situation, and hugged Lu Miao into his arms.
"Aren't you already asleep?" he asked.
Lu Miao was thrown directly into his arms by his embrace, and her heart that was raised to her throat slowly fell back, and she nudged him with her elbow in dissatisfaction: "Why are you sneaking around in the middle of the night?"
Qiao Ze shook the key at her: "I'm a legal trespasser." He helped her stand still, "I can't tell, but your vigilance has grown a little bit."
Lu Miao: "That depends on who taught it." She naturally embraced his arm with both hands, looked up at him: "Why are you here?"
Qiao Ze's eyes fell on her face: "I miss you."
The deliberately soft voice made Lu Miao's cheeks burn unconsciously: "Hey, don't be so nasty."
Qiao Ze smiled, touched her head, turned around and hugged her, kissed her, and fell down on the bed together.
He stood up slightly, and didn't take the next step, nor did he turn on the light, but just looked at her quietly with the faint light outside the window.
His thigh was pressed against her thigh, and his lower abdomen was pressed against her lower abdomen. The slightly hot body temperature was ironed from the parts that were attached to each other. With the warm breath, Lu Miao felt hot all over when he saw him. Pushed him: "What's wrong with you?"
Qiao Ze didn't speak, just let his upper body hang on his elbows and looked at her quietly.
Under the night, her outline became clear and soft, and she was still in a daze as usual.
It was difficult for Qiao Ze to apply Xu Jiaqian's phrase "she is a lunatic" to her, and he couldn't even bear to use the word "problem" on her.
He has traveled to so many places and met so many people, she is the most unlikely person who is not as good as he looks.
He had never seen her such a single-minded, stubborn and serious person who was so stupid.
But regarding what happened that night, whether it was Zhang Qi, Xu Jiaqian, or Xu Jiayan, there were similarities in their descriptions.
Only in Lu Miao's description, the second half is missing, which is equivalent to choosing himself clean.
He didn't want to doubt her, even if she really killed Ren Yu that night, it was self-defense, he only felt sorry for her, but he didn't know why she didn't mention that part.
"Miao Miao." He finally spoke, his voice was gentle and soft, "I want to ask you something."
Lu Miao saw that his complexion was different from the usual dignified, nodded: "Well, you say."
Qiao Ze pursed his lips: "The night Lu Xiaocheng disappeared, how did you faint afterwards?"
Lu Miao's face was a little dazed, and he recalled it for a while: "At that time, Xiao Cheng had a serious hallucination after taking drugs, and the drugs had aphrodisiac effects. They tied my hands and threw them with him. He no longer recognized me. Just by instinct, tearing my clothes off. They're just laughing, and...then..."
A look of pain gradually appeared on her face, her brows were tightly frowned, her hands slid through her hair in frustration, she closed her eyes, and shook her head: "I can't remember anything after that... It seems like I passed out... I woke up again It’s already noon the next day, and I’m in the hospital.”
Qiao Ze pulled her hand down, lowered his head and kissed her: "If you can't remember it, don't think about it..."
But she still seemed to be stuck in the memory, trying desperately to think, the whole person looked a little dazed, and didn't respond to his kiss.
Joze suddenly felt regretful, called her twice, stroked her cheek, and kissed her.
She slowly came back to her senses and looked at him.
After a while, when he finally let her go, she panted lightly, grabbed his arm lightly, and comforted him: "I'm fine."
Her eyes were bright and soft, and she seemed to be all right.
She is not someone who easily lets herself get stuck in the past. Her psychological adjustment ability has always been strong, and she is indeed fine.
Qiao Ze felt a little relieved, but he was reluctant to let go of her. After begging her for a while, both sides were satisfied, and then fell into a deep sleep with his arms around her.
He had a dream.
In the dream, Xu Jiaqian smiled and leaned towards him, pointing at Lu Miao who was standing aside in a daze, and kept repeating to him: "She's a lunatic, she's a lunatic..."
In the dream, Lu Miao's face gradually turned pale, without a trace of blood, and then his face gradually began to distort, and his eyes also began to distort, becoming colder, more ruthless, more hostile, and cruel With a smile, a mocking arc formed at the corner of his mouth, staring at him, smiling coldly.
Obviously still have the same eyebrows and eyes, the same facial features, it's her, but it's not her, his Lu Miao is gone...
Qiao Ze woke up suddenly, dripping with cold sweat. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Miao who was hanging over and looking at him. At that moment, he wondered if he hadn't woken up from the dream. Lu Miao in the dream overlapped.
He pushed her in surprise: "Miao Miao!"
Lu Miao was pushed by him and almost rolled down under the bed, but fortunately his arms barely supported the edge of the bed.
She looked back at him: "what's the matter with you?"
Qiao Ze looked at her and said nothing, his eyes were fixed on her, her voice was always soft, her eyes were also soft and soft that he was familiar with, with a little bit of unawakened confusion, her whole face was confused, and there was something hidden behind her. She couldn't stop worrying, she was worried about him.
Lu Miao looked at him as if possessed by a demon, and kept staring at her without moving. She spread her palms worriedly and waved in front of his eyes: "Qiao Ze, are you alright?"
Qiao Ze shook his head, stretched out his long arms, and suddenly pulled her into his arms. The arms were tightly bound, making her body ache.
Lu Miao clearly felt his beating heart, the sweat on his body, and the slight trembling of his arms.
She had never seen Qiao Ze like this before, no matter how dangerous or critical the moment was, he was always steady and unhurried, never showing the slightest fear or cowardice, but now, she felt that he was in front of him. Fear.
She didn't dare to move and let him hold her, waiting for his heartbeat to calm down slowly.
After a while, she asked him in a low voice, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Qiao Ze responded vaguely, his voice hoarse.
Lu Miao didn't know what kind of nightmare he had, and patted him on the back: "It's okay, dreams and reality are the opposite."
Qiao Ze didn't respond, and looked down at her in his arms.
Her breath, her voice, and her appearance were all familiar, and she was clearly in front of his eyes, in his arms, but he couldn't really let go of his heart no matter what.
He woke up early the next morning.
The sunlight that came in from the window in the morning washed away last night's nightmare, he rested his chest on one hand, and looked at the person sleeping in his arms like a kitten.
Without the cover of night, she in the morning light is still the Lu Miao he is familiar with.
She quickly opened her eyes, looking at him with familiar eyes.
"Morning." She greeted him shyly.
He also smiled slightly: "Morning." He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Although the two have been together for a long time, she is still shy, a light kiss makes her blush, and she is still timid and embarrassed.
Qiao Ze's heart, which had been hanging all night, finally returned to its original place. It was obviously just a nightmare, but it made him feel a little lucky to have found it again.
He made breakfast with her.
After breakfast, she went to Huang Chang's, and he went to the hospital to find his attending doctor.
He has been busy with work recently, and he hasn't come to see a doctor for a while.
The old expert is indeed a person who has worked for many years. When he saw him, he saw the problem: "Did you sleep well last night?"
Qiao Ze nodded, and sat down opposite him: "I haven't had a good rest."
The old expert looked at him with a smile: "Excessive indulgence?"
Joze smiled and shook his head.
The old expert didn't make fun of him anymore, he checked him routinely, and then asked him about his hearing recovery.
"I can basically hear it." Qiao Ze frowned, "It feels like he is gradually recovering."
Old expert: "Did it start after meeting the little girl surnamed Lu?"
Joze thought about it and nodded.
There was also a little confusion on the face of the old expert, and he didn't seem to understand the principle. There was really no theoretical basis to explain why.
"Theoretically, you should have recovered your hearing a few months ago." The old expert said, "There are no physical lesions, and the auditory pathway is intact. In principle, it should have returned to normal a long time ago."
Qiao Ze frowned: "That Lu Miao..."
The old expert shook his head: "I can't explain it clearly, and I have never seen such a situation. Unless, something very important happened in the moment before you fell into a coma, which you can't forget in your subconscious, and her voice happened to appear there For a moment, it was stored in your auditory central nervous system as a special memory point, and then her voice appeared, just like unlocking the password, and revitalized your entire auditory nervous system."
"Of course, this is just my personal guess, not a scientific explanation." The old expert emphasized, "And I remember you said before that the time you heard her voice was the first time you met her."
Joze nodded: "Yes."
The old expert spread his hands: "That really can't be explained."
Joze didn't really care about the reason, for him, the result was the most important.As long as the hearing can return to normal, everything else is trivial.
He glanced at his watch, got up and said goodbye to the old expert.
"I still have to come back and do a good checkup when I have time." The old expert urged.
Qiao Ze nodded. After leaving the old expert, he went directly to Shang Qi and Wu Manman to find out about their progress.
To avoid people's eyes and ears, Qiao Ze made an appointment with Shang Qi and Wu Manman to meet in a private club.
When he got there, both of them were already there, waiting for him sitting on the sofa in the box.
He sat down on the side sofa: "Mr. Shang, how is your talk with Mr. Huang going?"
"The plan is in progress, and it's going well." Shang Qi leaned over to pick up the lighter, lit a cigarette, and looked at Qiao Ze through the smoke, "How is Yan Gao?"
Qiao Ze took out a USB flash drive from his coat pocket and threw it on the table: "It's been dealt with." Then he looked at him, "Mr. Shang, I have a heartfelt request."
Shang Qi looked at him: "Say it."
"Mr. Shang still remembers the video clip of Gao Yuan before Huang Chang's death that Huang Chang showed us that day?" Qiao Ze leaned forward, looked into his eyes, and said word by word, "I want the full version. I hope Mr. Shang I can find a way to help make a copy."
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult." Shang Qi took the USB flash drive and threw it to Wu Manman, "But if Mr. Qiao can really help me win Huang Chang, wouldn't it be easy? Don't talk about a video, I just want Ah Jun's I can give you my head."
Qiao Ze smiled: "It's easy to say."
Wu Manman inserted the USB flash drive into his portable notebook, and the image of Yan Gao who was tied up and bitten by a Tibetan mastiff and screaming soon appeared on the screen.
The video is a special effect made by Tang Yuan, the effect is very realistic, and the picture is extremely bloody, Wu Manman couldn't take it after watching it for a while, so he turned it off.
Shang Qi smiled and looked at Qiao Ze: "Mr. Qiao doesn't have to be so ruthless, does he?"
Qiao Ze: "Mr. Shang is distressed?"
Shang Qi smiled and said nothing.
Qiao Ze reminded him: "That's Huang Chang's man. You treat him as a brother, and he has betrayed you so many times in the past few years. Otherwise, with Huang Chang's ability, how could he have been suppressing you for so many years? right?"
Shang Qi didn't answer, flicked the cigarette ash slowly, and then looked at Qiao Ze: "I heard that Lu Miao went to Huang Chang's place?"
Qiao Ze looked slightly surprised: "Isn't it recommended by President Shang?"
Shang Qi snorted lightly: "Mr. Qiao and I have raised our guns at each other. I was the one who recommended you to Huang Chang because I was out of my mind."
Qiao Ze smiled: "I think so too." He said again, "But Mr. Huang personally wanted to go there, probably because Huang Jiayin was unwilling and didn't want to make her feel better."
Wu Manman accepted the words with a smile: "Mr. Qiao doesn't feel bad?"
Qiao Ze glanced at her: "With her among them, shouldn't Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu be more assured of our cooperation?"
Wu Manman shook his head and replied "I really have no conscience".
Qiao Ze didn't speak, and asked about the recent cooperation between Shang Qi and Huang Chang.
Since the two "broke", Shang Qi has officially sided with Huang Chang on the surface.
In the past, Shang Qi was only responsible for money laundering, not drug production, drug transportation, and drug trafficking. The raw material market is in the hands of Mr. Huo, and a considerable part of his drug trafficking network is also controlled by Mr. Huo. Huang Chang can't let go of it, but he still has ambitions.
In order to check and balance Huang Chang, Shang Qi and Wu Manman began to turn to the field of drug production and trafficking, starting from Huang Chang's relatively weak new drug market. With the intention of threatening Huang Chang, Huang Chang was also prepared against him.
The cooperation between Shang Qi and Suo Fei is a great potential threat to Huang Chang. It is a good opportunity for Huang Chang to break up with Shang Qi and Suo Fei now. In the several cooperations between Shang Qi and Qiao Ze, it is equivalent to already Take over part of the new drug market, especially half of the entertainment market and Internet drug trafficking network that originally belonged to Li Yuanxiang.Although Director Xie is in jail, under his network, he has already colluded with several bigwigs in the circle. This half of the market is almost in his pocket, but he is waiting for an opportunity for the wind to relax.
The cooperation between Shang Qi and Huang Chang is equivalent to Shang Qi handing over half of the new drug market he expanded to Huang Chang to show his loyalty, and Huang Chang is naturally willing to take over.
In the takeover of this big business, Shang Qi fabricated a "Mr. Xu" here, who had the same status as Li Yuanxiang back then, and took over the market left by Li Yuanxiang behind the scenes, but with a slightly better wrist, the channels he controlled and the needs he needed. The volume of goods is larger, and there is no Li Yuanxiang thief, so he opened a factory privately.
Qiao Ze and Shang Qi's plan is to use this "Mr. Xu" to lure Huang Chang out of the cave, and use the power of the police to arrest Huang Chang's gang in one fell swoop. Shang Qi takes advantage of the situation to take over the forces behind Huang Chang.
In Qiao Ze's words, he has been Huang Chang's confidant for many years, what can Huang Chang escape his eyes?The reason why the police have been unable to catch Huang Chang is because his business is separated from the drug trade, and he is also very secretive. Except for a few confidantes, there is no trace at all.So even if Huang Chang was arrested by mistake, all he lost was the new drug market that was about to be acquired.But although the drug is real, "Mr. Xu" is fake, so in fact, the whole plan will not damage the market behind Shang Qi. Being the veritable second-in-command of Mr. Huo Group, and allowing him to make contributions to Mr. Huo, killing two birds with one stone, Shang Qi is naturally happy.
Qiao Ze learned from him that Huang Chang had the idea of replacing Mr. Huo after he formally formed an alliance with Shang Qi, and then Lu Miao was suddenly employed and reused by Huang Chang, which made him more aware of Mr. Huo's true identity guess.
All the actions were originally carried out in an orderly manner according to the plan, and now Shang Qi is introducing Huang Chang and "Mr.
Lu Miao has to get in. Any rejection from her may remind Shang Qi that the cooperation between him and Qiao Ze is only based on talk. suspicious.
And a more important question is that Lu Miao may have become a pawn to lure Mr. Huo invisibly.
This is their best chance.
But correspondingly, the danger Lu Miao faced also increased.
This means that she may be injured or even sacrificed at any time.
This was the last thing Qiao Ze wanted to see, but they had no choice.
Just like what he and Lu Miao said, since they have chosen this path, there is no possibility for them to turn back.
Before destroying the entire drug trafficking network, no matter whether the ending is life or death, she and he can only grit their teeth and go on.The only hope is to exchange the smallest sacrifice for the greatest chance of winning.
The best ending is to complete the task as expected, and everyone is fine.
But this was just his expectation. Qiao Ze didn't expect that something unexpected happened two days later.
(End of this chapter)
Qiao Ze was going to see Huang Jiayin the next day, but Lu Miao knew that he had plans and intentions, so he didn't follow him.
This was the first time that Qiao Ze took the initiative to ask Huang Jiayin out, so when Huang Jiayin saw him, his eyes were full of brilliance.
Qiao Ze looked at the radiant woman opposite him. If it was the past, he would never have used her, especially her feelings for him.
But it was the bureau she set up first that forced him and Lu Miao to this position. His responsibility and work made him have to use her to break the bureau.
What started with her can only end with her.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Huang Jiayin's appearance brought his attention back.
He watched her take a seat with a smile, stretched out his hand to call for the waiter, and replied quietly: "No, I just arrived."
He restrained some of the arrogance he had in front of her yesterday, and he became much calmer. He was exactly the Jiang Xing that Huang Jiayin knew at the beginning, calm and indifferent, always rejecting people thousands of miles away.
Such Qiao Ze softened Huang Jiayin's brows and eyes, and looked at him with one hand on his chin: "What do you want from me?"
Qiao Ze picked up the wine glass: "Thank you for what happened yesterday."
Huang Jiayin also raised his glass and touched him lightly: "It should."
Qiao Ze took a sip, put down his glass, pondered for a while, and looked at her: "Huang Jiayin, I am very grateful for the things you have done for me, but don't do this in the future. You know, your father and I are at odds , either he dies or I die."
Huang Jiayin's smile froze: "What if I stand by your side?"
Qiao Ze looked at her and said, "There is no if. The key to the problem between me and you is not whose side you are on. It is that I have never had any feelings for you."
Huang Jiayin: "You haven't tried to approach me, how do you know?"
Qiao Ze shook his head, raised his glass, and took a sip: "I know what I want."
Huang Jiayin's attitude softened, and he looked at him pleadingly: "Jiang Xing..."
Qiao Ze didn't look at her, and took a sip of his wine. At this moment, the mobile phone on the table vibrated, and a message came.
He picked up the phone and looked at it, his face tightened, and he tapped the screen with his fingertips, looking like he was about to send a message, but the phone suddenly beeped and turned off.
Annoyed, he put his mobile phone upside down on the table, picked up his glass and took another sip of wine.
This series of small actions failed to escape Huang Jiayin's eyes, she looked at him worriedly: "What's wrong?"
Qiao Ze shook his head: "It's okay."
"Is there something urgent to contact someone?" She handed him the mobile phone, "I still have battery in my mobile phone, here, I will lend it to you."
Qiao Ze glanced at her hesitantly: "Thank you."
He picked it up, dialed a number on his mobile phone, and said to the other end of the phone: "Tangyuan, it's me. My mobile phone is out of battery, and I borrowed Miss Huang's number now. I can't hear the phone easily, and I will reply to the message later." You, just look for this phone number."
He hung up the phone and edited the message.
Edited three records, one for Tang Yuan, one for Yan Gao, one for Su Ming, and all records were deleted after the last two were sent successfully.
He handed the phone back to Huang Jiayin: "Thank you."
Huang Jiayin smiled at him: "It's okay."
She was happy because she was able to help him. Qiao Ze didn't say much from the beginning to the end. After finishing the meal with her, he thanked her solemnly for saving him yesterday, and then excused that the company had to leave beforehand. .
On the way back, Qiao Ze sent Shang Qi a message and asked him, "Is the deployment ready?"
Shang Qi replied "Don't worry".
Qiao Ze went straight to room 301 of the Weimahe clubhouse where he used Huang Jiayin's mobile phone to make appointments with Yan Gao and Su Ming.
Wu Manman was in the house, while Shang Qi and Qiao Ze were outside. They found a place with a good view. With binoculars, it was clear at a glance who was coming in and who was going out.
When Qiao Ze got there, Shang Qi was already waiting there.
Qiao Ze got into his car directly, picked up the binoculars and looked at the door, then turned to look at him: "Mr. Shang, do you think it is Su Ming or Yan Gao who came here today?"
Shang Qi was silent for a while: "Su Ming."
Qiao Ze raised his eyebrows: "How?"
Shang Qi: "Intuition." After being silent for a while, he said again, "To be honest, I have never trusted Su Ming. He is too shrewd, and he was recruited from outside, unlike Yan Gao, who was directly assigned by Mr. Huo. I came here. From the perspective of closeness, Yan Gao is obviously more reliable."
"Besides, strictly speaking, Su Ming should have participated in our action plan for the first time, and something went wrong." His eyes met Qiao Ze's, "Isn't this suspicious?"
Qiao Ze nodded: "It's suspicious."
He picked up the binoculars and looked outside the door. After a while, a familiar silver-gray car approached slowly. The person who got out of the car was deliberately disguised. Shang Qi couldn't possibly have a problematic Yan Gao in his mouth.
Qiao Ze turned his head to look at him: "Mr. Shang?"
Shang Qi turned cold, opened the door and got out of the car.
Qiao Ze also got out of the car and followed Yan Gao not far or near.
After Yan Gao looked around cautiously, he had already entered the clubhouse, swiped his membership card at the front desk, entered the elevator, and went directly to the room 301 reserved in the name of Huang Jiayin.
He pushed open the door and saw Wu Manman in the room, with arms crossed, smiling at him: "Yan Gao, is it you?"
Yan Gao's complexion changed, and he turned around to go out, but Shang Qi and Qiao Ze were already standing quietly behind him.
He instinctively wanted to escape, but Qiao Ze kicked him into the box, and he followed suit, closing the door with a bang.
Qiao Ze stepped forward, stood up with Yan Gao in his arms, pinned him against the wall with his hands cut behind his back, searched him, and let him go after making sure that there were no communication equipment or monitoring equipment.
Shang Qi stood at the door, rubbing his palms, looked at Yan Gao and sneered: "Yan Gao, you told me something happened, so you came here to see Huang Jiayin?"
Yan Gao pursed his lips and looked at him defensively.
Qiao Ze put his hands in his coat pockets casually, and looked at him with a smile: "Huang Chang knows all the cooperation between me and the general manager, and Huang Jiayin also knows the action plan for that day. I don't believe it if we say that there is no one in us of."
"That's why I thought about concluding with Mr. Shang to find out the moths in our place." Qiao Ze continued, "I sent you the text message from Huang Jiayin's mobile phone, and the same message was also sent to Su Ming. , apart from the three of us, the only ones who knew the action plan that night were you and Su Ming. I said in a text message that the fake police incident caused another disturbance, and I asked you to meet in Room 301 of the Weima River Clubhouse. Whoever comes will prove who Knowing the inside story, who has a ghost in his heart."
Yan Gao's complexion suddenly became ugly.
Qiao Ze looked at him and his expression remained unchanged: "Huang Jiayin offered advice to Mr. Shang that day. I guess, there were at least two purposes. One is to use the hands of Mr. Shang to destroy Lu Miao, and the other is to destroy Su Ming. Huang Jia Yin knew in her heart that I was not a policeman, and her goal was only Lu Miao from the beginning to the end. As long as Lu Miao was destroyed, her goal would be achieved. For Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu, Lu Miao proved that I am not a policeman, and she was indirectly eluted. I was accused of leaking information. But the police still came, so it could only be the other of us. You are the person arranged by Mr. Huo, and you are on the same line as Mr. Shang, so he may not suspect it You, the only possible one is Su Ming.
"You are someone close to Mr. Shang, but in the past six months, Mr. Shang has become more and more dependent on Su Ming. In order to prevent yourself from becoming the second A Jun, you decided to act first and ruin Su Ming. It's just you Unexpectedly, the level of the fake police was too low, and the real police were provoked if they were not dealt with cleanly. Not only was it published in the newspaper, but the Shang Zong was also investigated as the mastermind behind the scenes, which led to the abort of your plan.
"It is impossible for Mr. Shang not to notice that there is a traitor among his own people, and it was arranged by Huang Jiayin. He is just afraid of the status of the Huang family in the company, so he can only suffer from this dumb loss. This is where Huang Jiayin has no fear. So even if she knew something was wrong with the plan, she didn't even apologize or explain to Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu. She didn't care whether everything she designed would destroy the cooperative relationship between Mr. Shang and me. Or for her, directly destroy Even better, that is the plan to kill three birds with one stone."
He smiled slightly at Yan Gao: "Am I guessing right?"
Yan Gao paled and said nothing.
Shang Qi folded his palms and patted it lightly: "It really is a good plan." He asked him, "Yan Gao, haven't I been good enough to you these few years?"
Yan Gao pursed his lips: "I'm sorry for Mr. Shang."
Shang Qi: "So you admitted that you hooked up with Huang Jiayin to design me, right?"
Yan Gao didn't speak.
Shang Qi suddenly lost his temper, kicked Yan Gao to the ground, drew his gun and wanted to kill him.
Qiao Ze covered the gun with his palm and moved his gun away: "Mr. Shang, do you want to call the police again?"
"Yan Gao must be eliminated, otherwise our plan will be meaningless once he gets in touch with Huang Jiayin." He walked towards Yan Gao, picked him up, and looked at Shang Qi, "Shang Anyway, why don't you hand it over to me?"
Shang Qi looked at him: "What are you going to do?"
Qiao Ze glanced at Yan Gao: "He is Huang Chang's man, so naturally he treats him in his own way."
Shang Qi thought of Gao Yuan who was bitten by the Tibetan mastiff that he saw in Huang's villa yesterday, and nodded.
Qiao Ze called Tang Yuan and asked him to come in and take him away.
Qiao Ze turned around and looked at Shang Qi: "Mr. Shang, I have done what I promised you. What about what you promised me?"
Shang Qi was suppressed by Huang Chang so much that he was already full of cowardice, and this time he was blatantly put on by Huang Jiayin. He didn't even apologize afterwards, but because of his status, he forcibly held back and didn't pursue it. The dissatisfaction reached the extreme, and now Qiao Ze was willing to help him pull Huang Chang down. Stimulated by the urgent need to feel proud, he readily agreed.
Qiao Ze's plan was very simple. Since Huang Jiayin played a fake police scene for them, they would use the power of the police to arrest Huang Chang.
As long as Huang Chang is taken, Shang Qi will naturally take his place.
Shang Qi couldn't find a chance to attack Huang Chang in the past, and he was afraid that Mr. Huo would become suspicious and hurt himself if he got into a big trouble; it would be like scratching an itch for Huang Chang if it was small, so he could only use Wu Manman to think about it. Get close to Huang Jiayin through her, and find opportunities from Huang Jiayin.
Joze's plan solved all his concerns, so he quickly agreed.
Qiao Ze went back after talking with Shang Qi, but he didn't go home, so he went to Tang Yuan's place instead.
Tang Yuan has just returned, and Yan Gao has been secretly detained.
"How are you?" Qiao Ze straight to the point as soon as he entered the room.
"It's locked." Tang Yuan took two cans of drinks from the refrigerator, and threw one to him, "How about Shang Qi?"
Qiao Ze hooked the pull ring to lift the bottle cap, and took a moment to glance at him: "I'm the one who can play tricks like Huang Jiayin, is there anything he can't handle?"
Tang Yuan smiled, and patted his shoulder heavily: "Stop stinking farts."
Qiao Ze raised his head and took a sip of his drink, and then looked at him: "Help me find a reliable special effects team, and make me a 1-minute video, just imitating the video of Gao Yuan being bitten by a Tibetan mastiff, and blocking Shang Qi's Mouth, lest he think of it one day and become suspicious."
Tang Yuan gave him an OK gesture: "Wrap it on me."
"Be realistic, be quick!" Qiao Ze urged, and was about to continue, when the phone rang and a text message came in, it was Lu Miao who asked him when he would be back.
She knew that he invited Huang Jiayin to dinner today, but he didn't explain the whole plan of action to her in detail. Qiao Ze guessed that he didn't come back all afternoon and all night, so she couldn't sit still.
She has never taken the initiative to care about his whereabouts, this is the first time since she met him.
Qiao Ze's mood was inexplicably elevated because of her text message. Looking at the text message, even the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised, evoking a slight smile.
He didn't deliberately hide his whereabouts, but he was busy all day, either facing Huang Jiayin or Shang Qi, and he really couldn't find a chance to report.
Seeing the smile on the corner of his mouth, Tang Yuan clicked his tongue a few times, and looked at him teasingly: "A text message from Xiaolumiao?"
Qiao Ze glanced at him: "When did it become your family?"
Tang Yuan: "Isn't it our family who joined our action team? That is the existence of comrades-in-arms and family members."
Qiao Ze didn't refute him, he turned sideways, and he had already called Lu Miao back.
"Are you still asleep?" he asked.
Lu Miao: "Not yet."
"I'll be back in a while." He whispered, his voice softening unconsciously.
Lu Miao on the other end of the phone said: "Then I may have to be late, I'm here at Qiao Shi."
Qiao Ze was silent for two seconds: "Why did you go there?"
Lu Miao: "Little Qiao wanted to see Lu Bao, so she came to play for a while, and then she wanted me to go to her house to play, so I came here together." Then, as if she was afraid that he might misunderstand, she clarified, "By the way , I didn't send the text message just now, it was Qiao Shi who sent it with my mobile phone. If you have something to do, you should do it first. "
Qiao Ze was silent for a while: "I'll pick you up now."
Lu Miao hung up the phone, always feeling that Qiao Ze's tone afterwards was not quite right.
Qiao Shi was on the side, hating her for being weak: "Why did you tell me that I sent text messages for you?"
Lu Miao: "I'm afraid he might misunderstand." He added, "It's not good if he's busy."
"Fart, if he's really busy and you can't even find anyone, he'll love this kind of misunderstanding." When mentioning this, Qiao Shi couldn't help being persuasive to Lu Miao. Appropriately show concern for him. Don't look at his calm face, his heart has already blossomed, and he has become more obedient than Lu Bao."
Lu Miao: "..."
Qiao Shi continued: "A narrow-minded man like my brother holds grudges very much."
Lu Miao: "..."
Qiao Ze arrived at Qiao Shi's house half an hour later.
Joe opened the door for him.
As soon as he entered the house, he looked for someone inside: "Where is Lu Miao?"
Qiao Shi gave Lu Miao a "you're done" look at Lu Miao who was on the sofa.
Little Qiao was playing with Lu Miao on the sofa, but when she heard Qiao Ze's voice, she slid off the sofa and ran towards Qiao Ze calling "Uncle, Uncle".
Qiao Ze bent over and picked her up, and asked her, "Where's auntie?"
The little girl shook her head blankly: "There is no aunt."
Qiao Shi corrected her: "Sister."
Little Qiao immediately turned her head to point to Lu Miao: "My sister is over there."
Qiao Ze corrected: "I want to call you aunt, little aunt."
Little Qiao shook her head firmly: "Sister is nice."
Qiao Shi laughed straight at the side: "Brother, look, even a two-year-old child knows that his name is not right and his speech is not right, so he can't yell."
Lu Miao stood up and walked towards him: "Are you done?"
She was still embarrassed to be too intimate with him in front of outsiders.
Qiao Ze hummed, and lowered his head to tease Little Qiao.
Qiao Shi secretly looked at Lu Miao, encouraged her to use what she learned, and asked Qiao Ze to act coquettishly and show her concern.
Lu Miao couldn't do it well in front of outsiders. She hesitated for a while, but she still stepped forward and hugged his arm, and asked him: "Why did you eat with Huang Jiayin for so long today?"
Joze: "There's something wrong."
His voice sounded very weak, but he pulled out his arm and hugged her back into his arms. Then, when he returned Little Qiao to Qiao, he greeted Shen Yu who came over, exchanged a few pleasantries and took him with him. Lu Miao left first.
As soon as Lu Miao got into the car, he was dragged into Qiao Ze's arms, and looked at her eye to eye, nose to nose.
"Your boyfriend is already dating other women, so you don't have to worry about him cheating, huh?"
Lu Miao: "A man who really wants to cheat will not ask this question."
Joze: "..."
Since we met till now, she always blocked him with a serious or blank expression, but she didn't realize it herself.
Lu Miao watched his eyes deepen, as if he wanted to deal with her again, but she showed weakness first, and held his hand softly.
"Why don't you go to work? I'm so jealous. Besides, you won't lie to me. If you happen to have something to do, I send a text message and I'm worried that it will bring you danger. "
After a few words, the pent-up breath in Qiao Ze's heart also dissipated. Who is the one who is stubborn to the end...
His palms were itchy, and Qiao Ze pinched her cheek fiercely: "Don't just give a candy, and then slap her backhand, can you just pretend that you sent the text message yourself?"
Lu Miao: "..."
Joze ignored her and bowed his head to kiss her.
Lu Miao pursed her swollen lips, and turned to look at him: "I remember you were serious before, why are you becoming so lustful now?"
"Is there?" Joze took the time to glance at her.
Lu Miao nodded seriously: "I think so."
Qiao Ze said silently: "Then you have to consider the issue of compensation. You have turned a man who doesn't have heavy desires into what he is now, and you have a lot of responsibility."
Lu Miao lightly bumped him with an elbow: "Obviously I'm the one who suffers."
Qiao Ze: "It's not you who moved."
Lu Miao: "..."
Seeing her angry appearance out of the corner of his eyes, Joze's mood also improved. Taking advantage of the green light on the opposite side turning red, he stopped the car, withdrew his hand from the steering wheel, and put it on her hair to comfort the little girl. Like a cat, gently rubbing and smoothing her hair.
Lu Miao tilted her head and didn't want him to succeed. Just when she raised her eyes, she suddenly caught a glimpse of the people in the cars parked side by side outside the car window, her expression changed suddenly, she pulled Qiao Ze's hand, turned around and opened the car door, hurriedly Push the door and get off.
Her reaction was so sudden that Joze didn't turn his attention all of a sudden. He only saw her get out of the car in a hurry, quickly circled the windshield, and walked towards the car beside him waiting for the red light.
He glanced into the car subconsciously, his face changed slightly when he saw Lu Xiaocheng on the co-pilot, and he quickly pushed the door to get out of the car.
Lu Xiaocheng in the car seemed to have seen Lu Miao, and turned his head away pretending to be inadvertent. The glass of the car was quickly shaken up, and the car also turned into the road on the left when the light turned green.
Lu Miao chased after her instinctively, forgetting that she was still in the middle of the road, the car braked sharply, and Qiao Ze quickly pulled her back.
"That... that just now... my brother..." Lu Miao was very anxious, and even started to speak incoherently, with both palms unconsciously pinching Qiao Ze's palm tightly, "I seem to have seen him... just left Did he not recognize me in that car... Can you help me chase him..."
"Okay, let's go back to the car first." Joze comforted her, half-forced her back into the car, and started the car.
Lu Miao anxiously pointed to the road on the left: "Turn left, that black car just now."
Joze glanced at her silently, turned the steering wheel and followed, but his speed was not fast, at least such a speed was not suitable for tracking a car.
Lu Miao became more and more anxious, unconsciously grasping his hand with both hands, urging him: "Hurry up...you'll lose track later..."
Her anxiety made Qiao Ze more silent, he pursed his lips slightly, and sped up a little.
He didn't expect such a coincidence to meet Lu Xiaocheng here, and let her see it before he found out.
Lu Xiaocheng is obviously avoiding Lu Miao.No matter what the reasons are for him avoiding her, just because he thinks about Lu Miao in everything, before investigating the reason clearly, he chose to stand by Lu Xiaocheng's side and hide it from Lu Miao for him.
So after tracking him around, Qiao Ze still "lost" Lu Xiaocheng.
Lu Miao was a little bit shocked, as if he was in a state of collapse, he sat on the back of the chair, frowned, bit his lip, looking very dazed.
"Why doesn't he want to see me?" She asked, completely at a loss as to why she couldn't figure it out.
This kind of her made him feel a little distressed. He hugged her and comforted her in a low voice: "Maybe it's just that you recognized the wrong person. It has been so many years, Lu Xiao has grown up a lot, and it is impossible to be exactly the same as before. Now the sky is changing Dark, it is normal to admit the wrong person. If he is really Lu Xiaocheng, it is impossible to ignore you. "
"Impossible..." Lu Miao still struggled, "That person just now was clearly him..."
"If it's really Lu Xiaocheng, he has such a good relationship with you, why would he deny you?" Qiao Ze looked at her and asked.
Lu Miao opened her mouth, unable to answer.
He gently rubbed her hair: "Don't think about it, Lu Xiaocheng knows you are looking for him, and will definitely come back."
Lu Miao nodded hesitantly and pursed the corners of her mouth. Qiao Ze couldn't tell from her expression how much she believed, or she just pretended to believe it to prevent him from worrying.
After getting along day and night for so long, he knows her too well, he looks dumb, but his thoughts are more careful than anyone else, and he can't be fooled by just a few words, she may even guess that he is deliberately delaying time.
It's just that she didn't show a half-seeing look, and it's not easy for him to try.She didn't ask any more questions, it was like the past, and she didn't mention it again the next day.
She went to work during the day, and while she was not at home, Qiao Ze went back to the bureau and called up Zhang Qi's personal information.
Zhang Qi was extradited from Macau by Lu Miao a while ago. At that time, because Qiao Ze focused on the case, he didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Qi's situation, and his understanding of him was limited to the information he asked Shen Qiao to check. , and Lu Miao said lightly that he is a little hooligan who loves to chase female students.
A seemingly inconspicuous person may be someone who understands the ins and outs of Lu Xiaocheng's case.
Qiao Zetuo sinks the bridge and finds Zhang Qi's foothold.
His hometown is in the countryside, his family is poor, his grandparents and parents are still alive, but he came out early to hang out alone.After working for more than ten years, all the money I earned was taken away by drugs. Now I am extradited and have no place to stay. I live with a few construction workers in my hometown on the construction site, on the construction site of the community in Xicheng District, Ancheng. Under the dozens of stories of scaffolding, a simple shed was built on the ground floor, and dozens of people were crowded there.
When Qiao Ze passed by, they were off work, and a large table of people was eating around the big table.
He waited in the dark for everyone to finish eating, until Zhang, who put down his rice bowl, got up and walked out through the back door before following him.
The back door is an undeveloped alley, narrow and deep, with dim lights and no one there.
After crossing the alley, there is a small bustling business district.
Qiao Ze silently followed Zhang Qi to a secluded place, and suddenly grabbed him, with his hands behind his back, pressing against the wall.
Zhang Qi was so frightened that he almost screamed.
Qiao Ze pressed his arm slightly hard: "Don't move around."
Zhang Qi couldn't see the people behind him, and he didn't dare to speak casually, begging for mercy in a tight voice.
"I'll just ask a few questions, and you can answer them honestly," Qiao Ze said.
Zhang Qi nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice: "Say what you say."
Qiao Ze: "What's your relationship with Lu Xiaocheng?"
A little panic and confusion appeared in Zhang Qi's eyes because of the word "Lu Xiaocheng", and he asked him: "What is your relationship with Lu Xiaocheng?"
Qiao Ze exerted a little more force on his palm: "Answer what I ask, don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Qi nodded quickly.
Qiao Ze repeated: "What's the relationship?"
"It's the former brother."
Qiao Ze: "The night Lu Xiaocheng disappeared, were you there?"
Zhang Qi: "In the beginning." He quickly added, "I was captured by Ren Yu."
Qiao Ze: "Where is Ren Yu?"
Zhang Qi: "Dead."
Qiao Ze frowned: "How did you die?"
"It was Lu Xiaocheng's sister, Lu Miao who killed him."
Qiao Ze's complexion changed, and he raised his leg suddenly and slammed into his stomach: "What the hell are you talking about?"
Zhang Qi was hit so hard that he almost knelt on the wall, and he didn't dare to struggle. He was about to cry: "I really didn't talk nonsense. At that time, Ren Yu wanted to rape her in front of us, and Lu Xiaocheng was desperate Pulling him and refusing to let him, Ren Yu became angry at that time, threw a bag of Magu to Lu Xiaocheng, and teased him that if he dared to smoke, he would let Lu Miao go. Lu Xiaocheng really took it and sucked it, Lu Miao desperately wanted to go Ren Yu got annoyed at once, grabbed Lu Xiaocheng's half-sucked bag and threw it to her, telling her that if she smoked it for him, he would let Lu Xiaocheng go. Lu Miao wanted to touch it, but Lu Xiaocheng refused to let it go, he snatched it up and smoked it all, a little too much, and the whole person was unconscious.
"That thing can also stimulate people's sexual desire. Ren Yu is a pervert. He is addicted to playing with siblings. He tied Lu Miao and threw it in front of Lu Xiaocheng. Lu Xiaocheng was already unconscious at that time. Just wanted to violate Lu Miao. Lu Miao kept crying and crying, and then she was like crazy, she didn’t know how to break free from the rope, grabbed the stone on the ground and threw it at Ren Yu’s head fiercely. Don’t you Knowing how frightening she was at that time, she was completely crazy, so ruthless, everyone was frightened stupid..."
When mentioning that scene, Zhang Qi's face was terrified, and Qiao Ze couldn't read the slightest trace of lying from his reaction.
"And then?" he asked.
"Later Brother Xu brought someone here..."
From Zhang Qi's intermittent description, Qiao Ze pieced together a general idea.
That night, Ren Yu led people to take Lu Miao and Lu Xiaocheng captive into the wild forest, and wanted to rape her in front of everyone. She resisted desperately, and Lu Xiaocheng also desperately held him. This action made him feel betrayed. Ren Yu, who was in a rage, completely lost control. Regardless of Lu Xiaocheng's pleading on his knees, he used Lu Xiaocheng's innocence to force Lu Xiaocheng to take Magu, and at the same time threatened Lu Miao with Lu Xiaocheng's life and death, forcing her to smoke The remaining half-pack of drugs.Lu Xiaocheng's resistance disrupted Ren Yu's plan, he snatched Lu Miao's share of the drug, and did not let Lu Miao touch it.In order to force her to surrender, Ren Yu tied her hands and threw her in front of Lu Xiaocheng, who was stunned by the drug stimulation... Lu Miao, who was driven into a desperate situation, completely collapsed, broke free from the rope unexpectedly, grabbed the The stone smashed hard on Ren Yu's head...
A man who claimed to like her and wanted to pursue her, because of her refusal and the mischievous pursuit of another gangster, vented all his resentment on her and her family, playing with her like a guinea pig. Their siblings pushed her into a desperate situation step by step, enjoying her pain and despair.
At that time, she was just an inexperienced middle school student, and she didn't have enough ability to resist.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine how hopeless and helpless she was at that time, and she never showed the slightest vulnerability or complaint in front of others, and even talked about that experience with him lightly, as if it didn't exist.
But all the scars have been engraved in her bones. Her resistance to telling others that she likes her, and her ignorance of all the confessions of the opposite sex may just be instinctive self-protection in the subconscious.
This kind of encounter, the experience of being abandoned when I was young, all made the word "like" become like a wolf and a beast.
It's hard for Qiao Ze to imagine how much fate will destroy a little girl's life.
She worked hard to get out again and again, but was beaten back to her original shape by fate again and again.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine how desperate she would be if Lu Xiaocheng was really involved in drug trafficking, facing a Lu Xiaocheng who had no way of turning back.
When he got home, seeing Lu Miao sleeping curled up on the sofa with a pillow in his arms, Qiao Ze's throbbing heart throbbed faintly again.He loves her, loves her past without him, but in the future with his participation, there are some things that he still can't avoid for her.
She obviously didn't do anything, even she was kind and optimistic all the time, but she was always pushed from heaven to hell by fate time and time again like a trick of good fortune.
She can live the way she is now, and he thinks he should be grateful to her.
It's not how good fate is to her, it's just that she has been working hard to fight against fate.
She tried hard to make him feel bad.
He could only relieve the discomfort in his chest by exhaling slowly, and walked towards her.
She had already fallen asleep, her face was as quiet and soft as ever, without any aggression.Ever since he met her, she has always been gentle and calm, even a little silly. From the beginning to the end, she has a pure and harmless soft temperament, which is not ostentatious, but can make people feel peaceful.
Qiao Ze couldn't imagine the stern look on this gentle and well-behaved face.
If he hadn't been extremely desperate, he wouldn't have had such explosive power and resistance, he thought.
He doesn't know if she killed someone or not. In Zhang Qi's later description, just when she was crazy and smashed Ren Yu's head with a stone, Xu Jiayan brought people over in time and tied them all away. .Zhang Qi is no longer clear about what happened later, but Xu Jiayan helped them smuggle to Macau in order to prevent them from divulging what happened that night, and gave them a large amount of hush money, and no one asked about him in the past few years in Macau. mentioned it.
Joze didn't know what the truth was.
Lu Miao also told him about that night, but in her description, she passed out that night, and both Lu Xiaocheng and Ren Yu disappeared.
With Lu Miao's single-minded temperament, it was impossible for her to lie to him, but Zhang Qi's reaction did not seem to be lying, and Xu Jiayan's "calling the police" after the incident also confirmed Zhang Qi's not lying.
He checked all the police materials and confession files in those years. Xu Jiayan did not call the police, and there was no statement that Lu Miao thought he had recorded.
If what Zhang Qi said is true, all this makes sense.
Lu Miao accidentally hurt someone, Xu Jiayan concealed it for her in order to protect her.
Because Lu Xiaocheng almost "violated" her, he felt ashamed to see her again and chose to escape.
This is the most reasonable explanation.
But Ren Yu is a living person who disappeared overnight and has not been heard from for several years. Logically speaking, it is impossible not to be discovered.
Qiao Ze checked the missing persons register, and there was no such person as Ren Yu.
Normally speaking, Lu Miao at that time was a legitimate self-defense, even if he reported to the police, there was no issue of criminal responsibility.
Except for Lu Xiaocheng whose whereabouts are a mystery, Xu Jiayan is probably the only one who knows the truth.
Qiao Ze decided to ask Xu Jiayan to talk.
Before asking Xu Jiayan, Qiao Ze tried to find Lu Xiaocheng's whereabouts first.
He asked Deputy Liu to find someone to call out the traffic monitoring of that night, trying to find Lu Xiaocheng from the monitoring.
When he went to check the surveillance cameras, he met Yao Lingling who was also looking for the surveillance cameras, and he also checked the car that night.
Qiao Ze figured out the reason as soon as he thought about it.
"Lu Miao asked you to find it?" He asked.
Yao Lingling's face was obviously conflicted, but under his staring eyes, she still nodded hesitantly: "She told me not to tell anyone."
Qiao Ze nodded knowingly, not surprised, if he could fool him with a few words, then he wouldn't be Lu Miao.
But it wasn't time for her to know about it.
"Leave this matter to me. I'll tell her later. Don't mention it to her. If she asks you, just say you're still looking into it." He urged.
Yao Lingling hesitated, but still nodded lightly.
Qiao Ze spent half a day comparing the monitoring, and quickly found Lu Xiaocheng's car. The second half of the car drove into the monitoring blind spot, heading west, in the countryside, the license plate was under Shang Qi's name.
With this only clue, it is still impossible to accurately determine Lu Xiaocheng's whereabouts for a while.
A person who has been hiding for five years and who appears in front of everyone as Mr. Huo cannot be easily found.
Qiao Ze's heart trembled because of the word "Mr. Huo", and a bold conjecture formed in his heart, which was very vague but could not be ignored.
He took a deep breath, suppressed his beating heart, and called Tang Yuan: "Tang Yuan, call Lu Miao back."
When Qiao Ze directly called him "Tang Yuan" instead of "Tang Yuan", Tang Yuan understood the seriousness of the situation. He suppressed his usual laughter and hummed: "What's the situation?"
"I can't tell." Qiao Ze couldn't grasp what flashed through his mind, "The work on Lu Miao... find a way to stop for a while."
After hanging up the phone, Qiao Ze went to find Shen Qiao and asked him to help investigate Ren Yu's background.
When Shen Qiao was young, he was also in the "jianghu". He was just a gangster, and he became honest after being dealt with by Shen Yu. He was no stranger to the word "Ren Yu". When he heard that Qiao Ze wanted to inquire about Ren Yu's situation, he immediately He patted his thigh and said, "Isn't that the gangster on the same line, I know him well."
Qiao Ze stood opposite him and glanced at him: "I want to know his height, weight, and body shape. It's best to have a photo, a full body photo, and a back photo."
Shen Qiao was taken aback: "There are no photos. I haven't seen him for several years, so I don't have any photos of him."
Qiao Ze nodded: "Then describe his height, body shape, and appearance. It is best to have a reference, such as who his body looks like."
Shen Qiao tilted his head and frowned for a while: "I'm about 1.8 meters tall, and her figure is quite well-proportioned. I really can't tell who she looks like."
It's like didn't say.
Joze looked at him motionless.
Shen Qiao spread his hands: "I haven't seen him for almost ten years, so I don't know what he looks like now. But he is a well-known gangster leader in our place. Apart from his grandparents, he is the only one in the family. He started at the age of twelve or thirteen. I often got into the police station because of fights, and I even recruited a small gang. I have been messing around on the road all the time, and it was very prosperous. I was in prison for two years before I was honest, and after I got out, I hung out for a few years. I don’t know where the money came from, so I opened a restaurant by myself, the scale is not small, I guess I made a lot of money, and then closed it, saying that I went to Thailand to do business, so there is no news.”
Qiao Ze frowned: "When did you move away?"
Shen Qiao: "About five years ago."
Joze: "How many months?"
Shen Qiao frowned and thought for a while: "It should be at the end of the year."
Qiao Ze remembered that Lu Miao and Lu Xiaocheng had an accident in September.In Zhang Qi's description, Lu Miao killed Ren Yu at the time, but Ren Yu's restaurant stopped working around December. According to the public, he went to Thailand, and Lu Miao said that Ren Yu disappeared after that night. up.
Qiao Ze pondered for a while, suppressed the unreasonable information, and asked Shen Qiao if he had seen Ren Yu in the past few years.
Shen Qiao spread his hands: "He and I are not in the same world, and we don't go to his restaurant to eat, one in the east and the other in the west, how can we meet people?"
"When did his family die?"
"He only has his grandparents. He was pissed off when he was arrested and imprisoned, and they all left after a while. He is a loner with no family."
Qiao Ze nodded thoughtfully, patted Shen Qiao on the shoulder, and asked him to find a way to get a photo of Ren Yu and find out the last batch of employees before his restaurant was disbanded.
He asked someone to check the entry and exit records of the past few years, and there was no such person as Ren Yu.
Qiao Ze invited Xu Jiayan to dinner at night, this was the first time Qiao Ze asked him out, Xu Jiayan seemed very surprised, but still agreed.
Qiao Ze made an appointment at a Chinese restaurant in the urban area, and he arrived a little earlier, dressed like a business elite with a neat suit.
Xu Jiayan arrived more than ten minutes later than him, and Xu Jiaqian also secretly followed him. Not long after Xu Jiayan took his seat, he pretended to meet him and popped out, pulled a chair and sat down opposite Qiao Ze.
Qiao Ze hadn't seen the brothers and sisters of the Xu family for a while.
Ever since Xu Jiayan asked Lu Miao to apologize that time, he seemed to have completely excluded himself from her life and never bothered her again. Lu Miao has also been busy dealing with Shang Qi and Wu Manman. Contact Xu Jiayan again.
Xu Jiayan probably guessed that Lu Miao and him were already together, and when he saw him, he asked casually, "Did Miao Miao not come?"
"She's going to work."
Qiao Ze picked up the teapot and poured him a cup of tea. Xu Jiaqian held the teacup in both hands and handed it over, smiling at him, "Brother Qiao, why don't you let my sister ask for leave and come over for dinner together, everyone long time no see."
Xu Jiayan looked at her sideways: "What are you doing here?"
Xu Jiaqian: "Let's play." He pestered Qiao Ze again to strike up a conversation, Qiao Ze had turned his gaze away, looked at Xu Jiayan, and said straight to the point: "Mr. There are some things about Yu, but the explanation she gave me is different from what others gave me, and there are some things that I might want to know about from Mr. Xu."
Xu Jiayan took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "Where did you hear that?"
"Miao Miao took the initiative to say something, and some things were said by Zhang Qi."
Xu Jiayan paused and looked at him: "Zhang Qi?"
Joze nodded, watching his expression.
At the beginning, Lu Miao tried everything possible to extradite Zhang Qi back to Ancheng, but then she stopped doing anything, which was not in line with her temperament.Qiao Ze guessed that Zhang Qi had been hidden by Xu Jiayan since he was extradited here, just like five years ago, he tried his best to avoid meeting Lu Miao and Zhang Qi.
Although Lu Miao is smart, but has no connections, and facing Xu Jiayan who knows her well, it is impossible for her to find Zhang Qi by herself.
Xu Jiayan looked at Qiao Ze with a trace of inquiry at this moment.
Qiao Ze smiled slightly: "I happened to meet Lu Miao looking for him when I was in Macau. I just happened to meet him in some business I did recently, so I chatted with him for a while."
Xu Jiaqian, who had been silent all this time, raised his hand suddenly: "Ask me, I was there that night."
Xu Jiayan suddenly darkened his face and looked at her: "Go home."
Xu Jiaqian pouted unhappily: "I'll go back when I go back." She lowered her head and found a business card from her bag and handed it to him, "Brother Qiao, you are welcome to come and find me."
She glanced at Xu Jiayan proudly, then turned and left.
Qiao Ze stared at Xu Jiaqian's back for a long time. When he first met her, he only thought of her as a spoiled little girl who was bold and willful.But after a series of events, from her being kidnapped, designing Li Junhao, forcing Chen Qi to go to the scene of Li Yuanxiang's kidnapping, and now talking about that night calmly, Xu Jiaqian made him a little puzzled.
He tightened his hand holding the business card, looked at Xu Jiayan, and waited for his answer.
Xu Jiayan kept silent and asked him instead: "What did they say?"
Qiao Ze relayed Zhang Qi's words one by one.
Xu Jiayan shook his head and smiled: "That's a psychopath, talking nonsense, unable to catch up with Miaomiao, looking for opportunities to slander her."
Qiao Ze nodded in understanding: "What happened that night? Is it convenient for Mr. Xu to disclose it?"
Xu Jiayan returned him an inquiring look: "What is Mr. Qiao's position to inquire about her past?"
Qiao Ze: "Her man." He added, "I want to know her."
"Mr. Qiao." Xu Jiayan pondered for a while, "For the sake of Miao Miao's reputation, it is better to let something pass. If you mind her past, please don't provoke her."
Qiao Ze looked at his face and judged the meaning contained in his words.
In the end, Qiao Ze just nodded knowingly: "I know. But Mr. Xu may have misunderstood something. Although I am with Miao Miao, we are not the relationship you think we are. We each take what we need, so sometimes we need Have a relatively in-depth understanding of each other's past."
One sentence made Xu Jiayan turn cold, and looked at him coldly.
Joze looked at him quietly.
Xu Jiayan's temper gradually suppressed, and a faint smile even slowly emerged from the corner of his mouth: "I hope Qiao will always remember what you said today."
He nodded apologetically and turned to leave.
Qiao Ze watched his back gradually go away, closed his eyelids, reached out to take the teacup, and took a sip lightly, thoughtfully.
A phone call from Lu Miao interrupted his contemplation.
"Tangyuan said to let me rest for a while, what's going on?"
As soon as the phone was connected, her confused voice came through the other end of the phone, and the soft tone fell in his ears, making his heart soften.
He reached out to call for the waiter, paid the bill, stood up, and asked her softly, "Where are you now?"
"It's outside."
"Where is it, I'll pick you up."
Lu Miao is by the river.
Tang Yuan's notice came a little suddenly, and she was a little confused.
Because of the "breakup" between Qiao Ze and Shang Qi, she has stopped all work in Qixun Venture Capital on the surface, but the case is not over, so her private contact with Shang Qi, Wu Manman and others will still be broken. Yes, but Tang Yuan seemed to want her to quit the case completely.
He didn't make it very clear, but she figured out what it meant.
She didn't know what went wrong, and she couldn't accept this sudden transfer until she understood the reason.
After leaving Tang Yuan's place, she kept walking along the road, thinking while walking, and unknowingly came to the riverside.She can only call Qiao Ze for things she can't figure out, and she knows that he must understand the reason.
Qiao Ze came over soon, drove the car, and saw Lu Miao on the other side of the road leaning on the railing of the bridge and looking at the river from a distance.
Before coming here, he talked to Tang Yuan. Tang Yuan did express to Lu Miao that he wanted her to rest for a while, but he only asked her first, and didn't speak clearly.
He should have brought this matter up to Lu Miao first, but he didn't have enough reasons to convince her.
Her mind is too sensitive, and any reason from him may make her feel that something is wrong.
Lu Xiaocheng was involved in the case and basically couldn't run away. Whether Xu Jiayan has a part or not is not right for him to judge now.
There is no clue or sign that Xu Jiayan has a relationship with Mr. Huo. He was the last person to see Lu Xiaocheng, but it does not prove that Lu Xiaocheng has been with him in the past five years.
After that night, Lu Xiaocheng didn't know how to face himself who wanted to invade Lu Miao, so he chose to leave without saying goodbye, and it made sense for him to sneak into Mr. Huo's group by mistake.
In the morning, he asked Lu Miao to be recalled on the premise that Xu Jiayan was Mr. Huo.
But this kind of assumption is unreasonable. Xu Jiayan's growth trajectory, his experience and experience, it is impossible to control such a large drug trafficking group, and even make Huang Chang, Shang Qi and others bow their heads to him.
When eating with Xu Jiayan, he deliberately tested the relationship between Xu Jiayan and Mr. Huo on the grounds that he and Lu Miao each got what they needed.
Based on Xu Jiayan's concern for Lu Miao, if he is Mr. Huo, it is impossible not to trip him secretly, so the change of Shang Qi and Wu Manman's attitude towards him will become crucial, and even their love for Lu Miao Minor attitude changes too.
So Lu Miao should actually stay inside.
Rationally, he felt that he should continue to follow the original plan, and their work could no longer withstand the slightest change; but emotionally, he was actually not willing to let her go deeper.
Along the way, he was weighing whether Lu Miao retreated or not.
Concern leads to chaos. For the first time, he couldn't give himself a definite answer.
He decided to leave the decision to Lu Miao.
Lu Miao didn't know that Qiao Ze had arrived, until a warm overcoat was draped over his shoulders, accompanied by a deep male voice: "Why are you blowing outside?"
Lu Miao turned back instinctively, saw the tall figure standing beside him, and also saw the dark shirt he was wearing, grabbed his coat and wanted to take it off and return it to him, saying: "I'm not cold, don't you I have a cold."
Qiao Ze pressed her shoulders, and embraced her from behind with his clothes on: "I'm not cold."
Lu Miao couldn't move because he was hugged by him, so she stopped struggling, turned her head and asked him: "Tang Yuan said that I'm tired recently, and I hope I can rest for a while. He means let me quit, it's Team Xing's meaning." Or did you mean it? If it was your meaning, why didn't you tell me directly?"
Qiao Ze didn't hide it from her: "It's what I meant."
Lu Miao didn't show any displeasure because of his words, but asked him in confusion: "Why?"
"I don't want anything to happen to you."
Lu Miao stared into his eyes for a long time: "I think you are lying."
Qiao Ze hugged her tighter: "I can't worry about you anymore?"
Lu Miao: "You are not a person who ignores the overall situation."
"And..." She was silent for a while, "It may be too late for me to retreat now, Huang Jiayin came to find me today."
He retracted his arms slightly and looked down at her: "What does she want from you?"
"Just chatting casually, she didn't do anything else." A little confusion flashed across Lu Miao's face, "But what I heard from her was that his father admired me a lot and hoped that I could go to work with them. I feel that her so-called work is actually helping to transport drugs."
Qiao Ze frowned: "Why did Huang Chang find you for no reason?"
Lu Miao couldn't understand either, and shook his head blankly: "I don't know either."
"The reason Huang Jiayin gave is similar to the reason why you took a fancy to me at the beginning. They said that people like me are not easy to be suspicious of, and they offered me a high salary." Lu Miao compared a number to him, "And from what she said, it seems that Huang Chang instructed her to come to me, not what she wanted to find."
Qiao Ze's eyebrows twitched, and there was a puzzlement on his face that she couldn't understand.
He didn't seem to understand why Huang Chang would look for her.
"I want to try it." She tugged on Joze's sleeve lightly, "This is obviously an opportunity."
Qiao Ze denied her without even thinking about it: "No way. Gao Yuan and Zhang Quan couldn't escape, let alone Huang Jiayin."
"But this is indeed our opportunity." Lu Miao grabbed his hand, "Although Shang Qi and Wu Manman seem to have reached a cooperation with you, if you and I are completely out of the way, how could they really do it?" Peace of mind? It’s just that you and Shang Qi broke up too much before, and they can no longer keep me by their side, for fear that Huang Chang will be suspicious. Now Huang Chang has taken the initiative to let me participate. Come on, Shang Qi and Wu Manman will also be suspicious, right?"
Qiao Ze pursed his lips and didn't respond. He understood her concerns, but her going in meant that she had to bear all the dangers and uncertainties by herself.
The only thing he can't figure out now is why Huang Chang came to Lu Miao.
The only reason he could think of was himself, but Huang Chang had nothing to do with him.Huang Chang hated him, and he would just find someone to shoot him and he would be relieved. There was no need to attack Lu Miao in a roundabout way, unless it was Huang Jiayin's instruction.
No matter what the reason is, it is undoubtedly dangerous for Lu Miao to enter, but as Lu Miao said, this is an opportunity.
Whether Su Ming can participate in it is still unknown, but once Lu Miao enters, it is basically a certainty.
As long as Huang Jiayin is there, he will definitely push Lu Miao into the most dangerous and variable drug transportation link. In order to contain him, Shang Qi and Wu Manman will definitely push him secretly.
With someone inside, it is indeed easier for him to grasp the variables, and to force Huang Chang out, the possibility of killing them all will be greater.What he wanted was to force Huang Chang to come forward in person.
"Qiao Ze..." Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, Lu Miao grabbed his arm and softly called out to him, her voice was so soft that water could be squeezed out, a bit coquettish, and a bit pleading.
She rarely called him by his name, and every time she called him in such a soft tone, he was completely helpless.
With a sigh, he finally hugged her tightly.
"Be safe." He urged.
Knowing the danger, but had to give it a try.
When he came back at night, he gave her a packet of the powdered stuff.
"Substitute this if you have to. Don't touch anything they give you, ever."
The next day he took her to Zhu Qi's place, and implanted a modified micro-locator chip into the subcutaneous tissue behind her ear. In theory, it could avoid ordinary wireless signal detectors, but it would not be 100%.
For people like Huang Chang and Shang Qi, any monitoring monitors are not suitable for wearing on their bodies. Most of them are anti-monitoring monitoring equipment. The only thing Qiao Ze asks for is that he must be able to grasp Lu Miao's exact location at any time. position.
After Lu Miao agreed to Huang Jiayin, Huang Jiayin asked her out, saying that her father wanted to meet her, and it was still in Huang Chang's villa, with the same garden and the same Tibetan mastiff.
After she went in this time, the Tibetan mastiff didn't attack her by surprise, but started to stare at her from the moment she came in.Four Tibetan mastiffs, entrenched on both sides of the road, roared at her.
As long as it doesn't attack suddenly like before, Lu Miao can still deal with these behemoths with ease.
She walked very slowly, and her eyes met the Tibetan mastiff on the side of the road.
Huang Jiayin was by her side, she came out to meet Lu Miao, seeing Lu Miao walking slowly, Huang Jiayin only thought she was afraid, and comforted her: "Don't worry, they won't attack you."
Huang Jiayin barked at the few Tibetan mastiffs, told them to go back, and led Lu Miao to the living room.
Huang Chang and A Jun were both there, personally standing at the door to greet her.
Seeing her approaching, a smile gradually appeared on Huang Chang's always serious face: "Miss Lu."
Lu Miao also greeted him politely.
Huang Chang welcomed her into the room, and after exchanging pleasantries, he asked her seemingly unintentionally: "Miss Lu, I remember that you are President Xu's younger sister."
Lu Miao didn't know how he would go around Xu Jiayan, remembering the first time he met Xu Jiayan when he came here, he nodded: "It's sort of."
Huang Chang laughed twice, said "fate", and then said: "I have some business contacts with Mr. Xu, this world is quite small."
Huang Jiayin was sitting on the side sofa, with a pale face, not showing much enthusiasm, but not too indifferent, leaning over to pick up the teapot and pour a few cups of tea, and when he put it down, he answered in a low voice: " It's quite small. When Manman and I met her, we didn't expect her to be from Jiang Xing."
She handed Lu Miao a cup of tea: "Drink tea."
"Thank you." Lu Miao took it, and drank it lightly, with a little restraint.
Huang Chang's attention was always on her, and she didn't look up casually, just drinking her tea cautiously.
After a long while, Huang Changcai returned to the subject: "Miaomiao, I hope you can come to work in our company. Did Jiayin tell you?"
Lu Miao took the teacup away a little, looked at him, and nodded hesitantly: "Yes, sister Jiayin mentioned it, but..." She gave Huang Chang a look of embarrassment.
Huang Chang: "Speak directly if you have something to say."
"Can I know why Huang Dong wants me to come to work?" She held the teacup with both hands slightly awkwardly, "I don't have any special talent, I'm still a newcomer."
"And..." she paused, "Mr. Huang should know about my relationship with Mr. Qiao. Don't you worry about me coming here like this?"
Her words seemed to make Huang Chang laugh.
He laughed a few times and asked her, "What are you worried about?"
Lu Miao pursed her lips: "For example, leaking secrets, leaking news or something."
Huang Chang glanced at her inexplicably: "You are all here with me, shouldn't he be the one to worry about?"
Lu Miao pursed her lips in embarrassment and stopped talking.
Huang Chang leaned over to refill her tea himself: "You are also Mr. Xu's younger sister. I can still trust Mr. Xu."
Lu Miao looked up at him.
Huang Chang didn't say any more, picked up the teacup and touched her: "You know that I have a grudge with you Joe, if you come here, you are not afraid of what I will do to you?"
Lu Miao shook her head: "You are my brother's friend. And since you asked sister Jiayin to ask me clearly, you will definitely not do anything to me. If you want to deal with me, there are many ways in secret Now, why put it on the surface and let people catch it."
"I'm just curious, Huang Dong, why did you come to me?" Lu Miao pursed her lips, looking at him with hesitation, "Uncle Huang, can I know the reason?"
Huang Chang: "I just love your innocence. And those who can work under Jiang Xing's hands are not bad, such as Gao Yuan back then."
"Is that the man who was bitten by a dog in the video that day?" Lu Miao asked hesitantly.
Huang Chang looked at her: "Didn't he tell you?"
Lu Miao shook his head: "I never knew his name was Jiang Xing before."
Huang Chang: "Are you afraid?"
She nodded honestly: "I'm afraid."
Huang Chang fixed his eyes on her face: "I remember you graduated from the police academy?"
Lu Miao nodded: "Yes, sister Jiayin and my brother both know that they were kicked out of the police force before the internship was over, and they failed."
Huang Chang: "With your background, Jiang Xing dares to use you."
"How dare he use me." Lu Miao was a little aggrieved when he mentioned this, "He won't tell me anything. You can ask Sister Man about this. I backed away, and everything was on guard against me. I followed him when I was studying, he saved me, and he also knew that I liked him, so I was sure that I would be devoted to him."
Huang Jiayin's face turned cold.
Huang Chang glanced at her, but Huang Jiayin ignored her with a cold face.
Huang Chang's eyes fell on Lu Miao again: "Why did you follow Mr. Qiao instead of Mr. Xu? Mr. Xu started his own company, his family business is stable, he is young and promising, and he doesn't seem like Mr. Qiao's life-threatening."
Lu Miao lowered her head: "Fuck doesn't like me."
Huang Chang didn't speak any more. After drinking some tea, he kept yawning, his forehead dripping with sweat.
While yawning, he stretched out his hand to A Jun, A Jun put a bag of drugs in his palm, he put it away, and looked at Lu Miao: "Miss Lu, do you want to try some, they are all pure goods."
Lu Miao nodded cheerfully: "Okay."
Ah Jun also gave her a bag, which was exactly the same shape as the one Qiao Zesai gave her.
Qiao Ze has been hiding by Huang Chang's side for a long time, and he has already grasped Huang Chang's temperament and habits clearly.
Ever since he got to know Qiao Ze, Lu Miao has always admired Qiao Ze, he is like a skilled chess player, he calculates every move clearly, and the score is perfect.
She grabbed the drugs thrown by A Jun. The thick winter coat and over-long sleeves gave her a good cover, allowing her to easily repack the things hidden in the sleeves, and then skillfully spread them out , inhale the powder slowly into the lungs.
Although it's not a real drug, it's a powder, and it's still uncomfortable to choke it into the respiratory tract. Lu Miao didn't dare to show the slightest bit of discomfort, and even had an expression of enjoyment on his face.Huang Chang and Huang Jiayin also seemed to enjoy her very much, and they didn't make things difficult for her afterwards, they just asked her how she felt and when it would be convenient for her to come over, and after chatting for a while, they sent her back.
Lu Miao has been enduring the discomfort in his nasal cavity, and when he got home, he couldn't take it anymore. As soon as he opened the door, he hurried to the bathroom, holding the wash basin and coughing fiercely.
Qiao Ze didn't know what was going on with her, so he hurriedly surrounded her from behind, asking her if she was taking drugs again, even his voice trembled unconsciously.
Lu Miao waved his hand at him, coughed up his breath, and then told Qiao Ze the conversation with Huang Chang in detail, and asked him to analyze it.
She really couldn't figure out what Huang Chang meant.
Qiao Ze listened to her quietly, pondered for a while, and suddenly asked her: "How many times did he mention your relationship with Xu Jiayan?"
Lu Miao frowned and thought for a while, then pointed three fingers at him: "Three times."
Qiao Ze nodded thoughtfully, but said nothing.
Lu Miao felt uneasy: "What's wrong?"
Qiao Ze shook his head: "It's okay, he might just want to use you to contain me."
Lu Miao snorted and didn't ask any more questions.
She went to Huang Chang's the next day, saying she was going to work, but in fact she didn't go to the company, she just followed Huang Jiayin, and they didn't let her be exposed in front of anyone.
Qiao Ze went to Tang Yuan and asked him to re-check Xu Yanghaiyun and all the relationship networks between Xu Jiayan and Huang Chang.
Shen Qiao is also continuing to investigate Ren Yu's whereabouts and his original relationship network.
After arranging everything, Qiao Ze made an appointment with Xu Jiaqian.
Xu Jiaqian seemed to have known that Qiao Ze would definitely ask him out, and when he came to the appointment, his steps were as brisk as if he was about to fly, and when he saw Qiao Ze, his eyes curled up with a smile.
"Brother Joe, I knew you would definitely ask me out."
Qiao Ze glanced at her calmly, and leaned his chin on the chair next to him: "Sit."
He poured her a cup of tea and handed it to her: "I remember when we first met you in Macau, you seemed to be very afraid of your sister."
Xu Jiaqian nodded calmly: "Yes."
She took the teacup, and suddenly approached him with her head, looking into his eyes without moving: "She's a lunatic."
Qiao Ze paused, met her eyes, and was so calm that he was a little scary: "Miss Xu, your sister almost died several times trying to save you."
"I know." Her eyes looked innocent, "I am also very grateful to my sister. But what I said is the truth, she is really crazy, my brother won't let me tell anyone, I like you I just told you."
Qiao Ze looked at her calmly: "What happened that night?"
Xu Jiaqian sat back on the seat: "I can't tell you now, only my own people can know about this, unless..."
She blinked at him, meaning.
Qiao Ze also slowly leaned back on the back of the chair, slowly wrapped his arms around his chest, and reminded her slowly: "Miss Xu, the one you want to seduce is your sister's man. She doesn't even care about her own safety for you, you Just repay her like this?"
Xu Jiaqian refused to accept it: "Where did I seduce you? I just gave you a chance to choose. Whether you want to accept it is up to you. And you are a drug dealer, how can you make my sister happy? She belongs to my brother."
"She belongs to your brother?" Qiao Ze pondered the words, took a sip from his wine glass, and turned his head to look at her.
Xu Jiaqian was not afraid of his eyes at all, and there was even a hint of rebellion in his eyes.
"She belongs to my brother. My brother loves her very much and has been waiting for her to graduate. If you didn't intervene inexplicably, they would have been together a long time ago. And, to be honest, with your job that can lose your head at any time, Why do you provoke my sister? What will happen to her if you die? "
Qiao Ze put down the cup lightly: "This problem doesn't exist for you?"
"That's different. My sister had a hard life when she was a child, so it's better to be safe and stable for the rest of her life. I grew up with rich clothes and fine food, and I've had enough of this kind of life like boiled water. I love to be with you desperate people." The disciples hang out together."
Qiao Ze shook his head and smiled, picked up the wine glass and drank the beer in one gulp without talking nonsense to her: "Miss Xu, let me tell you the truth, I don't want anyone except your sister."
He leaned forward a little and stared into her eyes: "If you really think about your sister, tell me what happened that night. Did your sister kill Ren Yu? Where did Lu Xiaocheng go? "
"I really can't tell you too much. I don't know too well. I followed my brother secretly. Later, my sister found out and was sent back. My sister really has a problem." Xu Jia Qian also calmed down, and pushed aside the bangs on the right side. There was a scar on the corner of her right eye that was as long as her index finger. She pointed with her finger, "Did you see it? My sister caught it that night. It's not that I want to slander her." , I think she really has a problem, unless she is pretending."
Qiao Ze put down the empty wine glass with a bang, stood up, asked the waiter to pay the bill, turned around and left.
Xu Jiaqian hurriedly stopped him: "I'm telling the truth, why do you all think I'm talking nonsense, my brother is like this, so are you."
Qiao Ze didn't have time to listen to her nonsense. Ever since he met Xu Jiaqian, she had always spoken in false ways, and she was a little crazy. Sometimes she looked innocent, sometimes she was deep in thought, sometimes she seemed brainless, and sometimes It seems to be calculating everywhere.
Xu Jiaqian chased him to the front of the car and knocked hard on his window.
Qiao Ze started the car and took a moment to look at her.
"If you don't like me, just reject me. It's not up to you. I can't test you for my sister?" She said anxiously as she followed the moving car, "I am also very grateful to my sister. , I feel sorry for my sister, okay? Didn’t you spoil her as a drug dealer? She used to want to be a policeman so much, but now you have led her into the ditch, and she is still taking drugs..."
Before finishing speaking, Qiao Ze suddenly stepped on the brakes.
He looked at her with sharp eyes: "how do you know she takes drugs?"
"Just...just..." Xu Jiaqian's words flickered, "Sister Manman said that. I really do my sister's best. I don't know what it means to let the rain not let the rain, if you mean that she used stones that night The person who smashed it, he is still alive. But my sister really has a problem, don't be fooled by appearances..."
"Where is he?" Joze interrupted her.
Xu Jiaqian shook his head: "I don't know. But I saw him last year."
"Where? When?"
Xu Jiaqian pursed her lips and refused to say: "Why are you asking so many questions?"
"Revenge!" Throwing down two words, Qiao Ze had already rolled up the window, and the car sped away.
He went back to the provincial capital and made an appointment with Team Xing.
"I want to thoroughly investigate Xu Yang Shipping, including all the overseas companies he has dealt with." He said, straight to the point.
Team Xing has long been used to his behavior, and glanced at him: "Do you have a clue?"
Qiao Ze: "No. There is also a man named Ren Yu who was also a drug dealer. It may be a breakthrough to investigate him with Xu Jiayan."
Team Xing: "Is there any indication that they have something to do with our case?"
Qiao Ze frowned. Strictly speaking, there was no such thing as Lu Xiaocheng appeared in Shang Qi's team. Xu Jiayan was the last person to see Lu Xiaocheng, but he deliberately concealed what happened that night and how he came back from the dead. Ren Yu, together with Huang Chang's sudden favor for Lu Miao, seems to have no causal relationship, but there may be some kind of connection.
There is great uncertainty in everything, Qiao Ze can only check with Xu Yanghaiyun and Ren Yu first to see if there are any possible clues.
"It's not like your style." Captain Xing looked at him and said, "Why did you suddenly think of checking these two?"
"Something happened recently." Qiao Ze said, the phone just rang, and a text message came in, so he took it over.
Team Xing didn't ignore his conditioned reflex action, and tapped on the table with his fingers, Qiao Ze raised his eyes and glanced at him.
Team Xing showed joy on his face: "Okay?"
He stood up, and patted Qiao Ze's shoulder heavily with his palm: "My good fellow, it turned out that my ears have recovered, why didn't you tell me, it made me worry for nothing all day long."
Qiao Ze smiled: "It's not completely recovered, it can only be said that it is recovering, and the decibels that can be captured are still lower than normal people."
"That's a good thing." Captain Xing couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder again, "When did it happen, why didn't you tell me?"
"It has been recovering, but it is relatively slow. I planned to give you a surprise when it was completely recovered, but I didn't expect it to escape your eyes."
Team Xing laughed. The recovery of Qiao Ze's ears gave him a great surprise, so he left Qiao Ze to celebrate for a while before letting him go back.
It was already late at night when he said goodbye to Team Xing and returned home.
The text message in the afternoon was sent by Lu Miao. Since she went to Huang Chang's company, in order to avoid suspicion, she moved back to the small apartment he rented for her.
The room was empty, and Qiao Ze was not used to it. He had only been together for a short time, but he was not used to the days without Lu Miao.
He sat in the living room for a while, picked up the keys on the coffee table, and drove to Lu Miao's place.
He doesn't have a fixed car, and he drives alternate cars, none of which is in his name, either from Shenqiao's side or someone else's.
A while ago, Shen Qiao reminded him that someone was checking his license plate, and he guessed it was Xu Jiayan, but he didn't take it to heart.At that time, Lu Miao often drove his car, Xu Jiayan was suspicious when he saw it, and it was understandable to ask someone to check the owner of the license plate. Now that he thinks about it, it seems that he can interpret other meanings.
It was almost one o'clock in the morning when he arrived at the apartment downstairs where Lu Miao lived. This place was owned by Shen Yu. There was a dedicated parking lot and elevators, which avoided many exposures.
He guessed that Lu Miao had already fallen asleep, so he didn't call her in advance, he just sent a message, but she didn't reply, it seemed that he was indeed asleep.
Qiao Ze had the key, so he wanted to open the door by himself, but he didn't expect a leg to slash him in the face as soon as the door was pushed open halfway. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and blocked the slash by bending his elbow on one side of his body. With the coming leg, the other hand took advantage of the situation, and hugged Lu Miao into his arms.
"Aren't you already asleep?" he asked.
Lu Miao was thrown directly into his arms by his embrace, and her heart that was raised to her throat slowly fell back, and she nudged him with her elbow in dissatisfaction: "Why are you sneaking around in the middle of the night?"
Qiao Ze shook the key at her: "I'm a legal trespasser." He helped her stand still, "I can't tell, but your vigilance has grown a little bit."
Lu Miao: "That depends on who taught it." She naturally embraced his arm with both hands, looked up at him: "Why are you here?"
Qiao Ze's eyes fell on her face: "I miss you."
The deliberately soft voice made Lu Miao's cheeks burn unconsciously: "Hey, don't be so nasty."
Qiao Ze smiled, touched her head, turned around and hugged her, kissed her, and fell down on the bed together.
He stood up slightly, and didn't take the next step, nor did he turn on the light, but just looked at her quietly with the faint light outside the window.
His thigh was pressed against her thigh, and his lower abdomen was pressed against her lower abdomen. The slightly hot body temperature was ironed from the parts that were attached to each other. With the warm breath, Lu Miao felt hot all over when he saw him. Pushed him: "What's wrong with you?"
Qiao Ze didn't speak, just let his upper body hang on his elbows and looked at her quietly.
Under the night, her outline became clear and soft, and she was still in a daze as usual.
It was difficult for Qiao Ze to apply Xu Jiaqian's phrase "she is a lunatic" to her, and he couldn't even bear to use the word "problem" on her.
He has traveled to so many places and met so many people, she is the most unlikely person who is not as good as he looks.
He had never seen her such a single-minded, stubborn and serious person who was so stupid.
But regarding what happened that night, whether it was Zhang Qi, Xu Jiaqian, or Xu Jiayan, there were similarities in their descriptions.
Only in Lu Miao's description, the second half is missing, which is equivalent to choosing himself clean.
He didn't want to doubt her, even if she really killed Ren Yu that night, it was self-defense, he only felt sorry for her, but he didn't know why she didn't mention that part.
"Miao Miao." He finally spoke, his voice was gentle and soft, "I want to ask you something."
Lu Miao saw that his complexion was different from the usual dignified, nodded: "Well, you say."
Qiao Ze pursed his lips: "The night Lu Xiaocheng disappeared, how did you faint afterwards?"
Lu Miao's face was a little dazed, and he recalled it for a while: "At that time, Xiao Cheng had a serious hallucination after taking drugs, and the drugs had aphrodisiac effects. They tied my hands and threw them with him. He no longer recognized me. Just by instinct, tearing my clothes off. They're just laughing, and...then..."
A look of pain gradually appeared on her face, her brows were tightly frowned, her hands slid through her hair in frustration, she closed her eyes, and shook her head: "I can't remember anything after that... It seems like I passed out... I woke up again It’s already noon the next day, and I’m in the hospital.”
Qiao Ze pulled her hand down, lowered his head and kissed her: "If you can't remember it, don't think about it..."
But she still seemed to be stuck in the memory, trying desperately to think, the whole person looked a little dazed, and didn't respond to his kiss.
Joze suddenly felt regretful, called her twice, stroked her cheek, and kissed her.
She slowly came back to her senses and looked at him.
After a while, when he finally let her go, she panted lightly, grabbed his arm lightly, and comforted him: "I'm fine."
Her eyes were bright and soft, and she seemed to be all right.
She is not someone who easily lets herself get stuck in the past. Her psychological adjustment ability has always been strong, and she is indeed fine.
Qiao Ze felt a little relieved, but he was reluctant to let go of her. After begging her for a while, both sides were satisfied, and then fell into a deep sleep with his arms around her.
He had a dream.
In the dream, Xu Jiaqian smiled and leaned towards him, pointing at Lu Miao who was standing aside in a daze, and kept repeating to him: "She's a lunatic, she's a lunatic..."
In the dream, Lu Miao's face gradually turned pale, without a trace of blood, and then his face gradually began to distort, and his eyes also began to distort, becoming colder, more ruthless, more hostile, and cruel With a smile, a mocking arc formed at the corner of his mouth, staring at him, smiling coldly.
Obviously still have the same eyebrows and eyes, the same facial features, it's her, but it's not her, his Lu Miao is gone...
Qiao Ze woke up suddenly, dripping with cold sweat. When he opened his eyes, he saw Lu Miao who was hanging over and looking at him. At that moment, he wondered if he hadn't woken up from the dream. Lu Miao in the dream overlapped.
He pushed her in surprise: "Miao Miao!"
Lu Miao was pushed by him and almost rolled down under the bed, but fortunately his arms barely supported the edge of the bed.
She looked back at him: "what's the matter with you?"
Qiao Ze looked at her and said nothing, his eyes were fixed on her, her voice was always soft, her eyes were also soft and soft that he was familiar with, with a little bit of unawakened confusion, her whole face was confused, and there was something hidden behind her. She couldn't stop worrying, she was worried about him.
Lu Miao looked at him as if possessed by a demon, and kept staring at her without moving. She spread her palms worriedly and waved in front of his eyes: "Qiao Ze, are you alright?"
Qiao Ze shook his head, stretched out his long arms, and suddenly pulled her into his arms. The arms were tightly bound, making her body ache.
Lu Miao clearly felt his beating heart, the sweat on his body, and the slight trembling of his arms.
She had never seen Qiao Ze like this before, no matter how dangerous or critical the moment was, he was always steady and unhurried, never showing the slightest fear or cowardice, but now, she felt that he was in front of him. Fear.
She didn't dare to move and let him hold her, waiting for his heartbeat to calm down slowly.
After a while, she asked him in a low voice, "Did you have a nightmare?"
Qiao Ze responded vaguely, his voice hoarse.
Lu Miao didn't know what kind of nightmare he had, and patted him on the back: "It's okay, dreams and reality are the opposite."
Qiao Ze didn't respond, and looked down at her in his arms.
Her breath, her voice, and her appearance were all familiar, and she was clearly in front of his eyes, in his arms, but he couldn't really let go of his heart no matter what.
He woke up early the next morning.
The sunlight that came in from the window in the morning washed away last night's nightmare, he rested his chest on one hand, and looked at the person sleeping in his arms like a kitten.
Without the cover of night, she in the morning light is still the Lu Miao he is familiar with.
She quickly opened her eyes, looking at him with familiar eyes.
"Morning." She greeted him shyly.
He also smiled slightly: "Morning." He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
Although the two have been together for a long time, she is still shy, a light kiss makes her blush, and she is still timid and embarrassed.
Qiao Ze's heart, which had been hanging all night, finally returned to its original place. It was obviously just a nightmare, but it made him feel a little lucky to have found it again.
He made breakfast with her.
After breakfast, she went to Huang Chang's, and he went to the hospital to find his attending doctor.
He has been busy with work recently, and he hasn't come to see a doctor for a while.
The old expert is indeed a person who has worked for many years. When he saw him, he saw the problem: "Did you sleep well last night?"
Qiao Ze nodded, and sat down opposite him: "I haven't had a good rest."
The old expert looked at him with a smile: "Excessive indulgence?"
Joze smiled and shook his head.
The old expert didn't make fun of him anymore, he checked him routinely, and then asked him about his hearing recovery.
"I can basically hear it." Qiao Ze frowned, "It feels like he is gradually recovering."
Old expert: "Did it start after meeting the little girl surnamed Lu?"
Joze thought about it and nodded.
There was also a little confusion on the face of the old expert, and he didn't seem to understand the principle. There was really no theoretical basis to explain why.
"Theoretically, you should have recovered your hearing a few months ago." The old expert said, "There are no physical lesions, and the auditory pathway is intact. In principle, it should have returned to normal a long time ago."
Qiao Ze frowned: "That Lu Miao..."
The old expert shook his head: "I can't explain it clearly, and I have never seen such a situation. Unless, something very important happened in the moment before you fell into a coma, which you can't forget in your subconscious, and her voice happened to appear there For a moment, it was stored in your auditory central nervous system as a special memory point, and then her voice appeared, just like unlocking the password, and revitalized your entire auditory nervous system."
"Of course, this is just my personal guess, not a scientific explanation." The old expert emphasized, "And I remember you said before that the time you heard her voice was the first time you met her."
Joze nodded: "Yes."
The old expert spread his hands: "That really can't be explained."
Joze didn't really care about the reason, for him, the result was the most important.As long as the hearing can return to normal, everything else is trivial.
He glanced at his watch, got up and said goodbye to the old expert.
"I still have to come back and do a good checkup when I have time." The old expert urged.
Qiao Ze nodded. After leaving the old expert, he went directly to Shang Qi and Wu Manman to find out about their progress.
To avoid people's eyes and ears, Qiao Ze made an appointment with Shang Qi and Wu Manman to meet in a private club.
When he got there, both of them were already there, waiting for him sitting on the sofa in the box.
He sat down on the side sofa: "Mr. Shang, how is your talk with Mr. Huang going?"
"The plan is in progress, and it's going well." Shang Qi leaned over to pick up the lighter, lit a cigarette, and looked at Qiao Ze through the smoke, "How is Yan Gao?"
Qiao Ze took out a USB flash drive from his coat pocket and threw it on the table: "It's been dealt with." Then he looked at him, "Mr. Shang, I have a heartfelt request."
Shang Qi looked at him: "Say it."
"Mr. Shang still remembers the video clip of Gao Yuan before Huang Chang's death that Huang Chang showed us that day?" Qiao Ze leaned forward, looked into his eyes, and said word by word, "I want the full version. I hope Mr. Shang I can find a way to help make a copy."
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult." Shang Qi took the USB flash drive and threw it to Wu Manman, "But if Mr. Qiao can really help me win Huang Chang, wouldn't it be easy? Don't talk about a video, I just want Ah Jun's I can give you my head."
Qiao Ze smiled: "It's easy to say."
Wu Manman inserted the USB flash drive into his portable notebook, and the image of Yan Gao who was tied up and bitten by a Tibetan mastiff and screaming soon appeared on the screen.
The video is a special effect made by Tang Yuan, the effect is very realistic, and the picture is extremely bloody, Wu Manman couldn't take it after watching it for a while, so he turned it off.
Shang Qi smiled and looked at Qiao Ze: "Mr. Qiao doesn't have to be so ruthless, does he?"
Qiao Ze: "Mr. Shang is distressed?"
Shang Qi smiled and said nothing.
Qiao Ze reminded him: "That's Huang Chang's man. You treat him as a brother, and he has betrayed you so many times in the past few years. Otherwise, with Huang Chang's ability, how could he have been suppressing you for so many years? right?"
Shang Qi didn't answer, flicked the cigarette ash slowly, and then looked at Qiao Ze: "I heard that Lu Miao went to Huang Chang's place?"
Qiao Ze looked slightly surprised: "Isn't it recommended by President Shang?"
Shang Qi snorted lightly: "Mr. Qiao and I have raised our guns at each other. I was the one who recommended you to Huang Chang because I was out of my mind."
Qiao Ze smiled: "I think so too." He said again, "But Mr. Huang personally wanted to go there, probably because Huang Jiayin was unwilling and didn't want to make her feel better."
Wu Manman accepted the words with a smile: "Mr. Qiao doesn't feel bad?"
Qiao Ze glanced at her: "With her among them, shouldn't Mr. Shang and Ms. Wu be more assured of our cooperation?"
Wu Manman shook his head and replied "I really have no conscience".
Qiao Ze didn't speak, and asked about the recent cooperation between Shang Qi and Huang Chang.
Since the two "broke", Shang Qi has officially sided with Huang Chang on the surface.
In the past, Shang Qi was only responsible for money laundering, not drug production, drug transportation, and drug trafficking. The raw material market is in the hands of Mr. Huo, and a considerable part of his drug trafficking network is also controlled by Mr. Huo. Huang Chang can't let go of it, but he still has ambitions.
In order to check and balance Huang Chang, Shang Qi and Wu Manman began to turn to the field of drug production and trafficking, starting from Huang Chang's relatively weak new drug market. With the intention of threatening Huang Chang, Huang Chang was also prepared against him.
The cooperation between Shang Qi and Suo Fei is a great potential threat to Huang Chang. It is a good opportunity for Huang Chang to break up with Shang Qi and Suo Fei now. In the several cooperations between Shang Qi and Qiao Ze, it is equivalent to already Take over part of the new drug market, especially half of the entertainment market and Internet drug trafficking network that originally belonged to Li Yuanxiang.Although Director Xie is in jail, under his network, he has already colluded with several bigwigs in the circle. This half of the market is almost in his pocket, but he is waiting for an opportunity for the wind to relax.
The cooperation between Shang Qi and Huang Chang is equivalent to Shang Qi handing over half of the new drug market he expanded to Huang Chang to show his loyalty, and Huang Chang is naturally willing to take over.
In the takeover of this big business, Shang Qi fabricated a "Mr. Xu" here, who had the same status as Li Yuanxiang back then, and took over the market left by Li Yuanxiang behind the scenes, but with a slightly better wrist, the channels he controlled and the needs he needed. The volume of goods is larger, and there is no Li Yuanxiang thief, so he opened a factory privately.
Qiao Ze and Shang Qi's plan is to use this "Mr. Xu" to lure Huang Chang out of the cave, and use the power of the police to arrest Huang Chang's gang in one fell swoop. Shang Qi takes advantage of the situation to take over the forces behind Huang Chang.
In Qiao Ze's words, he has been Huang Chang's confidant for many years, what can Huang Chang escape his eyes?The reason why the police have been unable to catch Huang Chang is because his business is separated from the drug trade, and he is also very secretive. Except for a few confidantes, there is no trace at all.So even if Huang Chang was arrested by mistake, all he lost was the new drug market that was about to be acquired.But although the drug is real, "Mr. Xu" is fake, so in fact, the whole plan will not damage the market behind Shang Qi. Being the veritable second-in-command of Mr. Huo Group, and allowing him to make contributions to Mr. Huo, killing two birds with one stone, Shang Qi is naturally happy.
Qiao Ze learned from him that Huang Chang had the idea of replacing Mr. Huo after he formally formed an alliance with Shang Qi, and then Lu Miao was suddenly employed and reused by Huang Chang, which made him more aware of Mr. Huo's true identity guess.
All the actions were originally carried out in an orderly manner according to the plan, and now Shang Qi is introducing Huang Chang and "Mr.
Lu Miao has to get in. Any rejection from her may remind Shang Qi that the cooperation between him and Qiao Ze is only based on talk. suspicious.
And a more important question is that Lu Miao may have become a pawn to lure Mr. Huo invisibly.
This is their best chance.
But correspondingly, the danger Lu Miao faced also increased.
This means that she may be injured or even sacrificed at any time.
This was the last thing Qiao Ze wanted to see, but they had no choice.
Just like what he and Lu Miao said, since they have chosen this path, there is no possibility for them to turn back.
Before destroying the entire drug trafficking network, no matter whether the ending is life or death, she and he can only grit their teeth and go on.The only hope is to exchange the smallest sacrifice for the greatest chance of winning.
The best ending is to complete the task as expected, and everyone is fine.
But this was just his expectation. Qiao Ze didn't expect that something unexpected happened two days later.
