Chapter 184

Tan Si was dead!

This was indeed a huge piece of news!

Mi Xianger quickly glanced at her husband and saw Yun Jingting standing by the door with both hands in his pockets. He did not look surprised at all, as though he had already known about it.

He was so calm that even Yun Jingqi was stunned. "Tiger, you knew about this a long time ago?"

"Yeah!"

Yun Jingqi was a little unsettled. "When did you know? How did you know? Tan Si's body was only discovered last night!"

She took a deep breath, and her face was filled with fear. "Brother, don't tell me that you're related to Tan Si's murder!"

The moment these words left her mouth, Mi Xianger was a little unsettled. But even so, she believed in her husband's character and immediately retorted, "Sis, don't make wild guesses. Why would Tiger do such a thing?"

Yun Jingting looked at his wife with bright eyes. He did not say a word, but in his heart, he felt that it was enough to marry a wife like this.

Yun Jingqi was a little embarrassed. "I was just too excited and couldn't control my mouth! Of course I believe Tiger, but this matter is indeed a little hard to explain. I'm also considered to be from the public security department, so I know that the procedure of investigating a murder case is to first eliminate the people who had a grudge with him!"

She casually pointed at her brother. "Tiger has been looking for Tan Si all over the city recently. To put it bluntly, both sides of the city know about this news. They all know that the two of them had a dispute, so there will definitely be people who have such suspicions!"

Mi Xianger did not wait for her to finish and raised her voice by half a degree. "Suspicions my a * s!"

Ah!

Yun Jingqi's eyes widened in shock. Who was she scolding?

Yun Jingting calmly turned his face to the window, secretly delighted in his heart …

Mi Xianger probably also felt that she had said something inappropriate. She pursed her lips into a smile and hurriedly explained, "Second Sister, I'm not targeting you! Ha! I'm just discussing the matter as it stands! I understand my husband the best. Tiger may be domineering, forceful, and unwilling to admit defeat. He may occasionally do some things that are out of line, but to talk about breaking the law and harming others for his own benefit … nonsense, he won't do it!"

"I understand, but how do I tell this to outsiders?"

Mi Xianger simply stood up and placed one hand on her waist. "It's even easier to tell outsiders! I'll only ask one thing: if Tiger really had the intention to harm Tan Si, why did he still call the police the last time? Why did he let Tan Si escape?"

She argued for what was right. "Based on Tiger's ability, he could even sneak into an enemy camp with loaded guns and live ammunition without firing a single shot. It's just a lousy warehouse. How can it stump him? If he really wanted to kill Tan Si, he would have gone over and dealt with him on the spot long ago. Why would he have waited until today?"

When she mentioned the last time she reported the case …

Yun Jingqi praised her from the bottom of her heart. "Looking at it now, Tiger's decision back then was very wise. If he really settled it himself, I'm afraid that it would really be hard to explain …"

Mi Xianger raised her head proudly. "That's my husband! He has to devise a strategy when he does things, and it's impeccable!"

Praising her husband!

She could!

However …

Yun Jingqi was still a little stunned. She raised her eyebrows. "Xianger, I didn't hear you call Tiger … What Old Attack?"

Old Attack?

This joke could be said between husband and wife in private!

In front of outsiders?

The tips of Tiger Yun's ears were a little red, and his expression was a little awkward. "Sis, what do you mean by 'male'? It means' male '! It means' man '! The people in Xianger's world all call their husbands that way!"

Mi Xianger looked at his anxious expression and felt that it was really cute and funny. Tiger Yun was an extremely traditional person, and he was also a soldier, so he was very mindful of his image in front of outsiders. He wasn't willing to put on an overly intimate "clingy appearance" with a woman, and he had the demeanor of an "abstinent Prince Charming".

But in private?

When it was just the two of them, he was really "beastly" when he went crazy.

But to be honest …

Mi Xianger really liked this "two-faced" side of him. She always felt that the most mischievous and gentle side of a man seemed to be the biggest secret, and no one knew that it was only revealed to her.

Yun Jingqi turned to her younger brother. "Tiger, then how did you know that something had happened to Tan Si?"

Yun Longhu lowered his head slightly, and his expression was a little dejected. "I've been paying attention to him for the past two days. I dare say that I'm the first to know about any news related to him! Sigh! It's a pity that something has happened to him, so this lead is temporarily severed. It'll be a little difficult to find the mastermind behind this!"

Yun Jingqi was a little curious. "You're really fast at finding people! Regarding Tan Si, we, the police, invested a lot of manpower and resources to find him, but you … Can I ask who the person who provided you with the information was?"

"It's a secret!" Yun Jingting smirked haughtily. "Sis, have you forgotten? I used to be a scout, so I naturally have my own channels when it comes to intelligence. The first key to doing intelligence work is to never leak the source of the information, not even to family members!"

Yun Jingqi pursed her lips. "Small fry! Look at how serious you are! I'm an enemy spy!"

Mi Xianger pulled her back. "Sis, you all know the specifics of the situation. I'm the only one in the dark. Tiger doesn't want to say anything, so why don't you tell me?"

She took the opportunity to pour her a cup of warm water. "What exactly happened? I'm also quite curious …"

Yun Jingqi took the cup and took a big gulp. "It's like this … After I listened to Tong Che's analysis at the hospital, I became interested in this matter. I seriously asked around in the police station, and they are taking this case very seriously! Deliberately committing murder with a knife in the middle of the night … This is destroying the harmony and tranquility of socialism. Our provincial bureau's Bureau Chief Liu Yidong personally set up a special task force and specially instructed us to investigate the case quickly and strictly!"

Bureau Chief Liu Yidong personally took charge!

It could be seen how seriously the police station took this case.

Mi Xiang 'er glanced at her husband and did not say anything …

Yun Jingqi continued, "The moment I arrived at the unit today, I heard news that when they arrested Tan Si last night, they found her dead in a private house. It was said that she died of poison! There were also a few steamed buns and two plates of side dishes on the table. The police station has already taken samples and tested them. As for whether she committed suicide to escape punishment or was a homicide, there's still no conclusion for now …"

Suicide!

Homicide!

The three people in the room looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

Yun Jingting sighed. "Don't worry about it! This matter will be temporarily handed over to the police to handle. I think that the mastermind behind Tan Si will restrain himself. Xiang 'er, you guys will be safe for the time being. This is the most important thing to me! This way, I won't have to worry so much when I return to the army!"

Yun Jingqi looked at her brother. "You've already set a time to return to the army?"

"Yeah! I'm leaving next Monday!"

Yun Jingqi was concerned about her brother and asked a series of questions. "Where are you going? How long are you staying? When are you coming back? Where are you going to be arranged after you come back?"

Tiger Yun smiled. "I'm going to Mt. T for the time being. There's a lot of reconstruction work there after the earthquake. Old Wu and the army are all there! As for how long I'm going to stay and where I'm going to be arranged after I come back … I'm a soldier, so I have to listen to the organization's arrangements!"

He shifted his gaze to his wife and said in a deep tone, "Xiang 'er, after I leave, you have to take good care of this family and yourself!"

The matters of the world must be separated after a long time, and united after a long time.

Mi Xiang 'er knew that this was inevitable. No matter how unwilling she was to be separated, this day had still come.

In order to reassure Tiger Yun, a brilliant smile spread across her face, dazzling like the morning sun. "Tiger, don't worry! I'll be fine, and the family will be fine!"

Yun Jingqi looked at Mi Xiang 'er's strong expression and felt touched. She walked over and wrapped her arms around her shoulders. "Mi Xiang' er, it's not easy to be a soldier's wife! I'm a woman too, so of course I know how many times I've been separated from my husband, and how many times I've sent him on long journeys … Thank you, thank you for supporting Tiger!"

Yun Jingting stood quietly at the side. Although he didn't speak, his thoughts were the same.

On the same morning …

Jiang Tingting was bedridden …

Suddenly, she heard some noise in the living room. She raised her voice and asked weakly, "Mom, is that you?"

Shen Xiaofeng put down the basket in her hands and quickly walked into the bedroom. She went straight to the bedside and felt the temperature of her daughter's forehead. There was a hint of complaint in her tone. "You child, seriously, you didn't even inform me that you were sick! I only found out after I called your regiment …"

She sighed with heartache. "Sigh … You've been sick for a few days, and you don't even have a cook by your side. Tingting, it's not that I want to nag, but you're not young anymore. If you get married …"

Jiang Tingting dragged out her voice. "Mom, I'm still sick. If you keep talking about this, you might as well leave, lest you disturb me …"

Shen Xiaofeng waved her hand in compromise. "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I have another piece of news to tell you … Your cousin, Tan Si, died in the suburbs. I heard …"

Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a hurried knock on the door …
