By the time Zhao Yu and Miao Ying had arranged the search in Zhangze City and Luolong County, it was getting late, and it was drizzling in the mountains.
However, Zhao Yu and Miao Ying still didn't have time to eat or rest. They drove directly to the highway to Meng Xiang.
Perhaps it was because of the remote location or the wrong time, but there was not a single car on the highway.
"Zhao Yu, don't drive too fast," Miao Ying said. "After all, it's raining! I don't know why, but on a night like this, I always think of the scene of the mountain god temple being washed away by the flood. "
"Don't blame me!" Zhao Yu said. "You're too immersed in your role! You're only thinking about the case, so you're in a trance … "
"To tell you the truth, when I was solving the hanging coffin case, I dreamed several times that the girls lying in the coffins came back to life. They sat by my bed and thanked me for giving them a second life …" Miao Ying pouted.
"Hmph," Miao Ying pouted. "That means your head is full of good things! Let me tell you, what I dreamed was that I was also locked in a hanging coffin, begging for death. That was really scary! "
"Alas, we're both a bit paranoid. When a case happens, we always imagine ourselves as the murderer or the victim. Who can we reason with?" Zhao Yu complained.
"There's no other way," Miao Ying sighed. "This is what we do! It's because we chose this line of work! "
"But nagging is nagging," Zhao Yu said, not joking. "Although I'm in the Secret Service, I still like to solve cases. I'm not used to the days when there's no case to solve!"
As he spoke, Zhao Yu thought of his experience in Morocco. Ding Lan, Reina, Amerola, Xi Mengna …
Recalling all the things that happened in the House of Sin, there was always a sense of unreality. It was as if those earth-shattering events were all an illusion, far away from him.
Only by running around in the rain to solve a case could he feel real and at ease.
"Speaking of the Secret Service …" Miao Ying smacked her lips and said, "My dad called me and asked me to go to the Secret Service for training after I finish this case. I'm afraid … I can't go to Yaoming with you!"
"Really? Why didn't the old man tell me? "Zhao Yu asked." How long will it be? "
"The basic trial is three months," Miao Ying said. "But it depends on the situation. If I come back after a month, it means I've been eliminated!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu pondered for a moment, then said, "Why didn't I train for such a long time? It seems like I didn't pass any of them, but I still passed in the end! "
"Nonsense," Miao Ying scolded. "You're a famous detective. It's all predetermined. The trial is just a formality. I'm not as capable as you!"
"Really?" Zhao Yu was puzzled. "Many cases were solved by us together! You're a detective too? "
"You're still showing off, aren't you?" Miss Miao rebuked. "How can I compare to a crazy detective like you? Just based on your performance in Waklia, you're already invincible!
"Not to mention the heroic deeds in the Landing and the Gold Case."
"Oh …"
Zhao Yu then realized that he had entered the Secret Service with a halo, not just because of Miao Kun's backdoor.
However, Miao Ying still didn't know that he had also played a vital role in the Detective Sharon's diamond case!
"It's okay, you can do it!" Zhao Yu patted Miao Ying's shoulder and encouraged her. "Don't forget, you're my wife!"
"What? Are you going to pull strings for me? "Miao Ying didn't react." If I wanted to pull strings, I wouldn't need you! "
"You're right!" Zhao Yu quickly corrected himself. "My Miao Miao is the best! But, isn't three months too long? Can I visit her? "
"Go to hell …" Miao Ying scolded.
The drizzle was pitter-patter. The car drove across the soaked road, splashing water everywhere as it continued to move forward …
Fu An County was only 160 kilometers away from Zhangze City. If Zhao Yu drove normally, it would only take him one and a half hours to get there.
However, it was raining and the sky was dark, so Zhao Yu didn't drive as fast as he could. It took him more than two hours to reach Fu An County.
However, when they arrived, they didn't go to a hotel or find a restaurant to eat. Instead, they went straight to a nightclub in Fu An County.
At that time, Cui Lizhu was there to visit an insider. She felt that this insider might know important information about the well case, so she asked Zhao Yu and Miao Ying to go take a look.
When Zhao Yu and Miao Ying arrived, the local police were already waiting there. They immediately led them to a luxurious office on the second floor of the nightclub.
When they entered, they saw Cui Lizhu talking to a woman in a beautiful outfit.
The woman was in her fifties, and although her skin was wrinkled, she was dressed very fashionably. Even before the introduction, Zhao Yu could already tell that this person was definitely a senior manager of the nightclub.
Cui Lizhu pointed to the woman and said, "This is Dai Xiaoli, Boss Dai. She was the wife of the owner of the dairy."
Then, Cui Lizhu briefly introduced Zhao Yu and Miao Ying. She only said that they were the leaders of the police station, but didn't say their names.
"Team Leader," Cui Lizhu explained, "I investigated the dairy. The deceased owner, Wu Haobo, wasn't the real owner of the dairy!
"As for his widow, Boss Dai Xiaoli, she knows the inside story."
As Cui Lizhu pointed, Dai Xiaoli nodded and said, "Yes, my husband was just a figurehead. The real owner of the dairy was his brother, Wu Chenglong!"
Wu Chenglong?
Zhao Yu smacked his lips and thought, There was Fan Dehua, and now there's Wu Chenglong.
"Team Leader," Cui Lizhu added, "Outsiders might not know the name Wu Chenglong, but in Fu An County, everyone knows him!"
"Yes," Dai Xiaoli skillfully lit a cigarette and said, "A few decades ago, Wu Chenglong was the most famous underworld boss in the Fu An area. People in the underworld called him Brother Long. No matter who it was, they had to give him face.
"In addition to loan sharks and casinos, he also ran several dairy farms. In order to avoid suspicion, he asked my husband to be the legal representative of one of them."
"Boss, oh … Team Leader," Cui Lizhu whispered to Zhao Yu, "Boss Dai knows Ba Hongxue and the others. Maybe even victim number three …"
"Oh?" Zhao Yu glanced at Boss Dai.
Boss Dai had good hearing, so he nodded and said, "Ba Hongxue came from Baiqu. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, he worked for Wu Chenglong for a while.
"Qimuge is the same," said Boss Dai. "He works in my husband's cattle farm. He's also a steward. A lot of things are done by him.
"I know Wang Pengyi, too." Dai Xiaoli took a puff of her cigarette and said calmly, "Nominally, he was the one who delivered the feed, but in fact, he helped Wu Chenglong with loan sharks!"
"Then …" Cui Lizhu quickly took the photo of victim number three and asked, "What about the other one? Who is he? "
"He's Bro Long's number one. His name is Peng Wenbiao!" Dai Xiaoli said. "This person is from a martial arts background. He is very good at fighting, so Bro Long likes him very much."
"Then …" Cui Lizhu pointed to her nose and asked, "Has his nose ever been broken?"
"I don't know …" Dai Xiaoli said. "I've only met him a few times. He looks very fierce, so I don't dare to talk to him.
But … "She pointed to the photo of victim number three and said," There's absolutely nothing wrong with this face! It's a good memory … "
"Oh … Then …" Zhao Yu quickly showed Fan Zhenguo's photo to Dai Xiaoli and asked, "Look carefully. Do you know this person?"
