As Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun were talking, their phones suddenly rang. The call was from Zheng Jing. Chen Xing picked it up without thinking. Zheng Jing, what's the matter?
Chen Xing, are you still in Yuntian? Zheng Jing's slightly impatient voice came from the phone.
Yes, I'm still here. What's the matter? Chen Xing asked doubtfully.
I heard that Li Baoguan's whole family has disappeared. Is it true?
Sort of, they've disappeared for a few days.
How could this happen? What about my husband? Li Baoguan promised me that he would help my husband get released on medical parole and that he would return more than 20 million yuan. Now that his whole family is missing, my husband will be released from prison, and our family's money will be lost. "Li Baoguan thought to himself. Zheng Jing was so anxious that she almost cried. A few days ago, Li Xiangda was taken away from her house by Chen Xing. These days, she went to the district to look for Li Baoguan, but she was told that Li Baoguan was not there. Until today, when she gave the security guard of the district government 200 yuan, he told her that Li Baoguan had not been to the district for a few days. There were already rumors in the district that Li Baoguan's whole family had disappeared. It was said that they had run away.
When Zheng Jing heard this, she was dumbfounded. Li Baoguan's whole family had run away. What about her husband and the property that originally belonged to them?
After being stunned for a while, Zheng Jing remembered that she had to call Chen Xing. She hurriedly picked up her phone and called Chen Xing. Before making the call, Zheng Jing still held onto the last trace of hope in her heart. She hoped that the news of Li Baoguan's disappearance was false. No matter what, Li Baoguan was the Executive Deputy District Chief. Zheng Jing didn't believe that Li Baoguan would run away just like that.
At this moment, Chen Xing's words shattered the last trace of hope in Zheng Jing's heart. Holding the phone, she sat down on the stone block by the roadside dejectedly. At this moment, she was still on the road next to the district government.
Zheng Jing, are you okay? Chen Xing felt the abnormality on the other end of the phone and asked with concern.
I'm fine. I just can't accept it for a while. Zheng Jing said dejectedly.
Zheng Jing, you don't have to think too much. I'll report your husband's case to the local leaders and give you justice. Chen Xing comforted her. As a classmate, Chen Xing did not intend to stand by and do nothing about Zheng Jing's husband.
That's right, how could I forget about you? Zheng Jing's spirit was refreshed. Seeing that she was in a panic, she had forgotten about Chen Xing. Chen Xing's help might be more useful than anyone else. However, it was Li Xiangda's fault. He had made a lot of promises to her before, which made her put all her hopes on Li Xiangda and his son. Now that she heard such news, she was at a loss.
Chen Xing, can you help me report my husband's situation to the leaders of the city as soon as possible? I really don't want my husband to suffer another day in prison. Zheng Jing said bitterly. While talking to Chen Xing, Zheng Jing thought of money again and frowned. Her husband might be released from prison through this case, but the property that belonged to them had been swallowed by Li Xiangda and his son. Now that Li Xiangda and his family had run away, wouldn't the money be completely gone?
Zheng Jing's imagination ran wild. On the other side, Chen Xing suddenly heard someone shouting to catch a thief. When he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw a man holding a big bag running out of a neighborhood nearby, followed by two neighborhood security guards.
The man ran in the direction of Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun. It seemed that he had companions. Two other men suddenly rushed out from the side of the road and pushed the two security guards who were chasing after him. The two security guards were caught off guard and fell flat on their faces. The two men immediately split up and ran away.
Zheng Jing, I have a situation here. I'll call you later. Chen Xing was stunned for a moment. He then hung up the phone and ran towards the thief who was running towards him. Jiang Haijun, who was at the side, also had a tacit understanding. Without Chen Xing's command, he had already rushed out to catch the thief.
Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun rushed out. Before they could meet the thief, the thief suddenly turned and ran into a small alley at the side.
Seeing this, Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun followed without saying anything. They didn't know how long they had been chasing the thief. When they were out of breath, they saw the thief stop. Chen Xing was stunned. He was wondering why the thief had stopped running. He looked up and found that the thief had turned into a dead end. There was a high wall behind him and there was no way out.
I … I say, aren't you two being too nosy? The thief was half-squatting and panting heavily. He glared at Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun.
"You little bastard, how can you be so self-righteous when you steal?" Jiang Haijun sized up the other party and was infuriated. The other party looked to be in his early twenties, and he was still a young man. It was no wonder that he was so agile. If not for the fact that the road ahead was a dead end, the two of them would have been left behind if they had chased for a while longer.
"What do you mean by stealing? I'm robbing the rich to help the poor." The thief retorted loudly. He glanced at Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun and threatened, "If you know what's good for you, get out of my way. You won't end up well if you meddle in other people's business. Be careful that you'll be stabbed in the back one day."
"Yeah, but we just won't get out of the way." Jiang Haijun chuckled.
"Haijun, don't talk nonsense with him. Just go and catch him." Chen Xing waved his hand and gestured to Jiang Haijun.
The two of them approached step by step. Seeing this, the thief rolled his eyes and weighed his small body. Seeing that Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun looked quite strong, the thief struggled for a while and gave up the idea of using brute force. He immediately changed his expression and said with a cheeky smile. "Brothers, why do you have to go through so much trouble to catch up with me? I'm not robbing an ordinary person's house. Although I'm a thief, I have my principles. Thieves have their principles. We never steal from the poor. We only steal from the rich and corrupt officials. Why do you have to make things difficult for me?"
"You have your principles when you steal? Do you mean you're right?" Chen Xing said with a smile.
"I didn't say stealing is right, but at least we don't have our principles." The thief said with a smile. At this moment, the siren of a police car sounded. Judging from the sound, it was obviously nearby.
"Hey, brothers, let me go. If I can't, I'll share half of the things I stole with you. Is that okay?" "These are all valuable antiques from the house of the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. I'll share half of them with you. Let me go now." Hearing the alarm, the thief became anxious at once.
"The house of the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee?" "Are you kidding me?" Jiang Haijun raised his eyebrows, looked at Chen Xing, and asked calmly. "Brother, why would I lie to you?
Brother, why would I lie to you? If I lie to you, you won't have a good death. This time, we've scouted the place for a long time. That house belongs to the Municipal Party Secretary, and no one has been living there for a long time. It's used to store some antiques and valuables. Everything went smoothly. If it weren't for the alarm that attracted the neighborhood's security, I would have succeeded long ago. The thief said anxiously. At the same time, he walked forward and stared at Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun. "Brothers, I'll share some things with you. Let me go. Is that okay?"
Chen Xing and Jiang Haijun exchanged glances. It wasn't because they were interested in what the other party had to say, but because they were shocked by the other party's words.
"You keep talking about the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee. Do you know who the Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee is?" Chen Xing asked.
The thief didn't answer Chen Xing. His ears moved slightly, and then he was stunned. The things in his hands fell to the ground. He murmured, "It's over. It's too late."
