Seven o 'clock at night, in Zhao Yu's secret room.
Ran Tao came back with a swollen face. He complained to Zhao Yu as soon as he entered the room, "Team Leader, that woman is too violent! She wouldn't give it to me! Then, I did as you said, and I ended up like this! "
"Really?" Wu Xiumin crossed her arms. "You are a man, and you are from the Mobile Team. Yet, you can't even deal with a woman?"
"What are you talking about?" Ran Tao was upset. "Sis Huo didn't even do anything. She had five or six men under her! Let me tell you, don't look at me like this. Those guys aren't any better than me! In the end, if it weren't for the Jinping police taking out their guns, I would have beaten them all up! "
"Great!" Zhao Yu praised Ran Tao. "Well done! That's the effect I wanted! "
“What？” Ran Tao creased his eyebrows and seemed to understand something. He quickly asked Zhao Yu, "Team Leader, why do I feel like you knew that I would get beaten up?"
"Cough cough …" Zhao Yu coughed a few times, then quickly explained, "I just expected that the woman wouldn't give you the information! So, people like him, who are unwilling to cooperate, have to be beaten up! "
"Really?" Ran Tao was suspicious. "Why do I feel like I was used by someone?"
"Hey! The meat skewers are coming! Get out of the way, get out of the way … "At that moment, Zeng Ke, who had gone out to buy lamb skewers, ran in with a big bag of piping hot meat skewers." Who wants kidney? There are plenty of them! "
Smelling the fragrance of the lamb skewers, Zhao Yu took two steps back and opened the door of the room. He shouted at Cui Lizhu, "Hey, come over and eat some!"
"Team Leader …" Wu Xiumin creased her eyebrows and gestured at her fingers. She was reminding Zhao Yu that Cui Lizhu had just had surgery on her fingers, so she couldn't eat such "hair stuff."
"Then … Should I order some takeout for you?" Zhao Yu asked.
Just as he finished his sentence, Cui Lizhu came out from the room. She picked up the meat skewers and said, "Lamb skewers are pretty good. I haven't had barbecue for a few days. Let me have some! Hmm … do you have any muscle tendons? "
"Um …" When Ran Tao saw Cui Lizhu, he couldn't help but be stunned. He quickly looked up at Zhao Yu and asked, "Why is she here?"
It turned out that when Zhao Yu arrived at the hospital, he took Cui Lizhu away in the name of interrogating the criminal! The people who were detaining her at the scene were all from the Jinping police, so they naturally didn't dare to stop Zhao Yu.
Plus, according to the latest instructions from the Criminal Division, Zhao Yu was the legal investigator of the Gem Theft Case, and Cui Lizhu was related to the Gem Theft Case. Hence, it was reasonable for Zhao Yu to interrogate her.
After leaving the hospital, Zhao Yu followed his original plan and sent Cui Lizhu to their secret hut.
Of course, on the way, Zhao Yu explained the current situation to her. Cui Lizhu was worried that her father would be in danger, so she naturally cooperated with Zhao Yu.
"I've asked the higher-ups!" Zhao Yu said to his team members while eating the delicious skewers. "The seven-day deadline starts tomorrow morning, and it hasn't officially started yet! So, we still have time to have fun! "
Then, Zhao Yu was the first to open a bottle of beer and take a big gulp.
"Team Leader, you are so optimistic!" Wu Xiumin shook her head helplessly. "Forget about seven days. Even if we were given seventy days, we wouldn't have enough time! What if the gemstones were already out of the country? What should we do? "
"Hehe …" Zhao Yu took another big gulp of beer and said to everyone, "Take a closer look. Wu Fangfang is eyeing us from the side, and there are people from the Criminal Division who are trying their best to exclude us!
"We live to fight for our dignity!
So, remember, when the investigation starts, all of you have to give it your all! " Although Zhao Yu's voice wasn't loud, he sounded powerful. "Let me tell you, even if the gem were to be in the White House in the United States, I would try my best to get it back! Sometimes, if you don't push yourself, you won't know how much power you have! "
Then, Zhao Yu raised his beer bottle and drank it in one gulp!
Zeng Ke, Wu Xiumin, and the others were stunned by Zhao Yu's words. They thought about it for a few seconds, then looked determined. Ran Tao and Zeng Ke quickly picked up their beers and drank. Cui Lizhu looked at Zhao Yu with a strange look in her eyes.
After eating and drinking, the investigation of the gem officially began.
On the big screen, the enchanting blue gem appeared again. Although sapphires were not as valuable as diamonds and rubies, they were as deep as the night sky, so they were enshrouded in a mysterious hue. They were called the Stone of Fate!
Take the famous Tamil Star, for example. In addition to its unfortunate fate, it had witnessed the rise and fall of many ancient Indian dynasties. It was a real Stone of Fate!
He wondered if Zhao Yu's fate would change because of this stone.
"Back then, my father and I lived in seclusion in a coastal county in Chaohai City. It was a very quiet and peaceful small town. I went to junior high school there, and my dad worked a part-time job at the Postal Savings Bank … "Cui Lizhu explained her experience in detail." I think the reason why my dad was called the king of thieves was not because of his superb skills, but because he was better at disguising himself than anyone else. He looked like whatever he was trying to disguise himself as!
I remember that there was a female fish stall owner who liked my father. She often sent seafood to our house. Sometimes, we couldn't even eat it … "Cui Lizhu said.
She then added, "However, my father's work was never delayed. Sometimes, he would disappear for a few days after receiving a job. If it was some simple work that was close to him, he would bring me along! My skills improved by leaps and bounds during those internships! "
"Holy sh * t! Combining theory with practice … This is a common motto in all walks of life!" Zhao Yu couldn't help but exclaim.
"Six years ago, before the sapphire was stolen …" Cui Lizhu finally got to the main point. "One day, my father told me that he had received a big job and that he would only be back in about ten days! At that time, I didn't think much of it. My father's mental strength was very good. Even a treasure like the Tamil Star wouldn't affect him in the slightest. "
"A few days after my father left, I heard about the theft of the sapphire on the news," Cui Lizhu said. "I was quite surprised at the time. But, I wasn't sure if it was my father who did it. I remembered that my father was a low-key person, so he rarely stole things that had a big impact. "
"Then, I waited and waited, but after ten days, he didn't come back!" Cui Lizhu sighed. "Half a month passed, and he didn't come back! In the end, when I was about to go to the capital to look for him, he finally came back! "
Cui Lizhu recalled. "But, although he came back, he wasn't in a good state! At first, he was forgetful. He would forget everything, and he would speak incoherently. Sometimes, he would even reverse time, and he couldn't tell the difference between day and night! After that, his sense of smell and taste also deteriorated, until it became what it was now!
"Yes, when he first came back, I was anxious to know the truth. So, I asked him about the Tamil Star many times!" Cui Lizhu said uncertainly. "Sometimes, he told me that he stole the sapphire! Sometimes, he told me that he didn't! It gave me the feeling that when he said that he was sure, he was conscious! So, I always thought that he stole the sapphire! "
"I even asked him about the whereabouts of the sapphire and what happened to him, but he always said some random things and didn't answer my questions. Also … When he came back, he told me to pack up and get ready to move!"
"I didn't expect him to be so sick, so I listened to him and moved more than ten times. It was only when I confirmed that he was mentally ill that I stopped listening to him. "
"In the meantime, I gave him a checkup and saw many doctors. The doctors said that his head was hit, which resulted in brain damage. His condition would only get worse, so the chances of him recovering were very low. "
"Then, it was what I told you. We came to Jinping and settled down in the nursing home. I was forced to work for Ma Qiang from Zhangping Street! "
"Alright!" Wu Xiumin shook her head helplessly. "After talking for so long, it's as if I didn't say anything! Now, we can't even be sure if Tao Xiang stole the sapphire! "
"Yeah!" Cui Lizhu didn't deny it. "If my father had told me the whereabouts of the sapphire, I wouldn't have ended up like this!"
