"Brother Wen, Brother Wen... finally found you..."
Li Xuewen was walking on the way home and was almost at the door when a person suddenly jumped out from the roadside, startling him. If the voice hadn't been familiar, he would have taken action directly.
The person who jumped out was the man who had slipped away from the wine stall. He was now standing in front of Li Xuewen, feeling both happy and scared. He was stumbling over his words for a while.
Seeing this situation, Li Xuewen said with a straight face and a low voice: "Didn't I remind you? You are not allowed to come to my house. Do you want that old stubborn to lecture me to death?"
Seeing the man's voice getting louder, Li Xuewen interrupted: "Tell your voice lower, do you think others are deaf like you?"
"Yes, yes..." This time the man lowered his voice and said, "Brother Wen, something happened. Brother Dachuan, Lao Lu and the others were all arrested."
"Caught? Who caught him?"
"police……"
"you sure?"
"I'm sure it's the team led by that idiot Chen Zhiyong. The other police officers all look familiar. They are the police in our area."
"Chen Zhiyong? Are you sure you read that correctly? We don't lack his money, and we often invite him. Why is he arresting our people?"
"Brother Wen, I'm sure I read it right. It's Chen Zhiyong. He has turned his back on me. He gave him so much, but he didn't even inform him if something happened."
After listening, Li Xuewen asked: "Tell me from the beginning! What happened? Why did he want to arrest our people?"
When the man heard this, he told the whole story in a more embellished and jealous way, blaming all the fault on Zhao Xiaochu.
"Brother Wen, what should we do now? It's not easy for Yingshi Porcelain! Various cars often come to pick up Boss Wang. It is said that he often works for various high-ranking officials."
"Are you sure that that person is related to Boss Wang of Yingshi Porcelain?"
"This..." The man pondered for a moment before replying: "Brother Wen, I have never been to Yingshi, so I don't know if there is such a person.
However, listening to the conversation between him and Chen Zhiyong, there should be no difference. Chen Zhiyong is definitely not so unkind to someone who is not a British official.
Brother Wen, what should we do now? Leave Brother Dachuan and the others alone?"
After listening to this, Li Xuewen pondered for a while and then said: "We are all brothers, how can we let it go? You wait for me here, I will go inside to get some money, and we will go to the police station to find out the news."
"It's...Brother Wen..." The man responded, and Li Xuewen turned around and entered the room.
As soon as he entered, Li Xuewen immediately met with Li Guangquan and quickly informed Li Guangquan of the situation in a concise manner.
After hearing this, Li Guangquan frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Ishikawa, could this matter be directed at us?"
"Probably not, Chief Matsubara, let me go to the police station to check and see if there is any problem?"
"Hmm...Okay, go and come back quickly."
"Hey..." Li Xuewen responded. Li Guangquan took out a small box, took a tube of ocean and handed it to Li Xuewen.
With the money, Li Xuewen and the man who reported the message rushed to the police station. By this time, Chen Dachuan and his group had all been taken into custody.
Li Xuewen wanted to find a relationship that he usually maintained, but unfortunately either he was rejected, or the other party pushed him back and turned against him as soon as he heard help.
In the end, Li Xuewen and the others just got some information. The order was given by a deputy director of the police station. It was said that they had received an order from a senior official.
The news was true and false, and Li Xuewen couldn't tell whether the news was true or false.
In the end, there was really no other way. Li Xuewen still felt that he should find the arresting police to see if they could find out something about the situation.
The two of them were hiding outside the police station. After a while, the arresting police officers came out in twos and threes, each one cheerful and bragging.
Li Xuewen frowned slightly as he listened to what these people were talking about, and the man who followed behind also heard something.
"Brother Wen, from what he said, it seems like someone bribed them a large sum of money?"
"I heard that, please pay attention. If you see anyone familiar with us, please come and ask."
Li Xuewen and the others invited three police officers who usually had a good relationship with them. Although they asked for something, it was of little use.
"Brother Wen, look at that. That person is Chen Zhiyong's crony. Let's find him and ask him?"
Following the direction of his finger, Li Xuewen saw an ordinary middle-aged man walking out alone. He was the man who Chen Zhiyong winked at before.
Li Xuewen quickly stepped forward, caught up with the middle-aged man, and quietly picked up his pocket, making a sound like the ocean colliding.
"Officer, can I get some news from you?"
The middle-aged man heard the words, thought for a moment, nodded, and followed Li Xuewen to a hidden spot. Li Xuewen directly took out ten yuan and stuffed it into the middle-aged man's pocket.
The middle-aged man touched it, showed a satisfied look, and said with a smile: "If you have anything to do, tell me quickly! Don't waste my time here in the middle of the night."
"Yes, yes... Officer, I want to ask you, have we really offended Yingshi's boss Wang? That person doesn't seem to be a clerk of Yingshi!"
"It's Yingshi who offended. That person is looking after the store for Boss Wang, and he has also been Boss Wang's playmate since childhood. Otherwise, do you think that in order to vent his anger on ordinary store employees, Boss Wang would call the superiors of the police station?
I’ll give you a piece of advice, if you’re not involved in this matter, don’t meddle in it, otherwise you’ll be involved in it in the end, which is not worth the loss! You must know that Boss Wang is not an ordinary person.”
After hearing this, Li Xuewen breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: Fortunately, it's not coming at him, so don't worry too much.
"Thank you, officer, for reminding me, but those are my brothers. If such a big thing happens, I am the only one who can make the decision. I have to do something for them."
"Well... Seeing that you are so loyal, I will tell you a little more. Whether this matter is serious or not, to put it bluntly, it is just Boss Wang venting his anger on his brothers. Your brothers' lives will not be in any danger.
, I just have to suffer a little bit.
You wait seven or eight days, and when Boss Wang and his brother are pretty angry, bring the money over and you can bail them out."
"Thank you, officer, for reminding me..." After saying that, Li Xuewen took out Dayang and put it in the pocket of the middle-aged policeman.
"Officer, I want to see my brothers. Can you give me some advice?"
When the middle-aged policeman heard this, he hesitated. Li Xuewen put something more in his pocket, and then the middle-aged policeman smiled broadly.
"Old Wangtou in the detention room has worked hard for him today. I have to buy some food and wine to reward him."
"Officer, it's so late, leave it to me! Officer, go back and rest quickly, you have to catch the bad guys tomorrow! How can you waste time on this matter, right?"
"Hmm... That makes sense. Remember, Lao Wangtou likes the food and drinks at Longsheng Hotel outside the police station. If you go over and ask Lao Wangtou in the detention room, they will prepare them for you."
"Understood, I must handle it for the police officer!"
"Well..." the middle-aged policeman nodded and continued: "Oh, by the way... there is a new prisoner today. It's so late and the person who delivered the food is not here, so you also dropped by to deliver it.
Remember to send food to Longsheng Hotel and Wang's Restaurant next to it. Those are from the detention room, and other places are not safe."
"Yes, yes, yes..." Li Xuewen responded, put something into the pocket of the middle-aged policeman again, said a few polite words, and then left quickly with the messenger.
As the messenger left, he stretched his hand behind his back and made a silent gesture.
The messenger was named Yang Ergou, and he was Chen Zhiyong's spy who had quietly developed during this period. After Liu Zhenshan found Chen Zhiyong today, Chen Zhiyong notified Yang Ergou in advance, preparing to make some achievements so that he could show his face in front of Lin Wenhua.
The middle-aged policeman named Liang Hongzhang is Chen Zhiyong's confidant and a dog-headed strategist. He arranged the performance just now.
Of course, this performance was agreed upon by Lin Mo and Liu Zhenshan before, and Liang Hongzhang just perfected the details.
Looking at Li Xuewen walking away, he touched his pocket again. Liang Hongzhang showed a sinister smile on his face and left briskly.
Li Xuewen took Yang Ergou to the place Liang Hongzhang mentioned. Although it was already very late, both stores were still open, but there were no customers.
"Ergou, you go to Wang's Restaurant to order food for Dachuan and the others. I'll go to Longsheng Hotel and we'll go separate ways."
"Brother Wen, this...Brother Dachuan and the others have already eaten, do you still want to order?"
Li Xuewen listened and replied: "Ergou, this is not a meal, but a payment to see Dachuan and the others."
"Oh..." Yang Ergou touched his head and walked to Wang's Restaurant with a stunned look on his face. Li Xuewen ignored Yang Ergou and went directly into the high-end Longsheng Hotel.
When he came to the counter, he faced the service staff and said, "Waiter, Lao Wangtou in the detention room will have some food and wine."
The waiter listened, nodded, with a smile on his face, and said: "Sir, a serving is twenty yuan."
After hearing this, Li Xuewen was stunned for a moment, even though he was prepared in his heart, and finally nodded helplessly.
When the waiter saw this, his face was full of smiles, and he continued: "Sir, the price is unified for the first time. What is the price next time? Go in and ask Officer Wang. Next time, the price will be based on his price."
"Okay... when will it be ready?"
"Just wait seven or eight minutes. Sir, you can go to the Wang's Restaurant next door and buy a meal for the people inside."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work..." After saying that, he turned around, Li Xuewen put away the smile on his face, walked out quickly, and ran into Yang Ergou, whose face was ashen.
"Ergou, what's wrong?"
When Yang Ergou heard this, he looked dissatisfied and said angrily: "Brother Wen, that meal costs two yuan per portion. It's just a bowl of rice and a portion of vegetables and boiled tofu. How many coppers is it worth?"
"Alas..." Li Xuewen sighed and said, "Don't worry about this, just listen to my arrangements! If we want to see someone, we have to pay for it!"
After hearing this, Yang Ergou seemed to understand something and hurriedly asked: "Brother Wen, you mean that in the end this money will fall into the hands of the police."
"That's for sure! If Lao Wangtou and Wang's Restaurant say there is no connection, would you believe it?"
"Uh... I don't believe it!" Yang Ergou shook his head.
"Then it's over, hurry up! Order the meals for Dachuan and the others."
After hearing this, Yang Ergou looked a little embarrassed and said: "Brother Wen, I...I have no money, and we can't do credit there."
After hearing this, Li Xuewen put his hand in his pocket, and his face was stunned. He took out all the money in his pocket and counted it. He found that there were only twenty yuan left. Excluding the twenty yuan from Longsheng Hotel, he couldn't buy a few meals at all.
.
Really having no choice, I rummaged through my body and found a few small golden beans, and went to Wang's Restaurant to exchange for ten meals.
After putting these ten meals in the lunch box, they went to Longsheng Hotel to pick up the prepared meals, and then the two of them walked towards the police station.
"Ergou, I will deal with Lao Wangtou and the others later. You go and deliver food to Dachuan and the others. Remember to pay attention to whether everyone is here."
"Okay, Brother Wen, I will definitely count them all..."
"Hmm..." Li Xuewen replied and took Yang Ergou into the police station and outside the detention area.
When the guard at the door saw the lunch boxes in their hands, they immediately welcomed them in with a smile and took them to Lao Wangtou.
Lao Wangtou is not young, he is chubby, his face is covered with fat, and his eyes are almost blocked by the flesh.
Seeing the lunch boxes in the hands of Li Xuewen and Li Xuewen, Lao Wangtou grinned widely, showing his big yellow teeth, which made Li Xuewen feel sick.
Holding back his nausea, Li Xuewen said to Old Wang with a full face of compliments: "Officer Wang, I heard that you worked very hard today, so I took over the task and brought you some food and wine.
I'm going to bring some food to the prisoner I just arrested, so that he doesn't starve to death and dirty Officer Wang's land."
"Easy to say, easy to say...haha...come here quickly and accept the reward..."
Lao Wangtou smiled and called all the police officers around him to sit around the table. The detention area was not big, there were only five or six police officers in total.
Seeing everyone coming over, Li Xuewen signaled to Yang Ergou, then put the lunch box on the table and prepared to open it.
"No, no, you can do it yourself..." Lao Wangtou said as he brought the lunch box in front of him without leaving any trace and opened it himself. None of the police officers around him tried to grab it.
Li Xuewen was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized something. While complimenting, he carefully paid attention to Lao Wangtou's movements.
Damn the old fox, he really left a secret note. No wonder he dared to be so bold. The reason was that he had a back-up plan.
Li Xuewen cursed secretly in his heart, but he was also a little lucky that he didn't do anything, otherwise things would have been even more troublesome.
The lunch box didn't contain any delicacies, just a boiled chicken, a few meat dishes, some side dishes to go with wine, and a few bottles of wine. After taking them out, the people at the table started eating and drinking.
The policeman on the table didn't pay much attention to these, just like daily food, he obviously didn't eat much.
While Li Xuewen was serving a group of people eating and drinking, he carefully observed his surroundings.
The detention room is not big, only about a dozen cells, but it is full of people, some with unkempt hair and dirty faces. It is obvious that they have been detained for a long time, and some have just come in and are still a little energetic.
The most people came in from Xinguan. After all, more than 20 gangsters had just been arrested. These people were very happy at first when they saw Li Xuewen coming in. However, when they heard the message from Yang Ergou, saying that there were still about ten days before they could go out, they suddenly hesitated.
Come down.
Lao Wangtou had been paying attention to the situation in the detention room. When he saw that the number of meals sent by Yang Ergou did not match the number of people arrested, he suddenly felt unhappy.
The reason why he was so polite to Li Xuewen was because Chen Zhiyong told him that some of the more than 20 people would come to visit him. The money had already been allocated to Chen Zhiyong. Now that the amount didn't match, wouldn't he lose the money?
The Longsheng Hotel was run by the top brass of the police station, and the meal money was handed over to them to allow him to make money, but he couldn't get a share of it.
The money from Wang's Restaurant is what he can earn, and he can also share it with others. Now the amount is not enough! That's not a loss.
Lao Wangtou winked at the two police officers sitting opposite, and they immediately stood up and started chasing people away.
"It's time to go, it's time to go. This is the center of the police station. Once the things have been delivered, don't stay any longer."
As the two police officers spoke, they drove the people out of the detention room, and then called on others to send the two people out of the police station.
