A few minutes later, the sound of footsteps came from outside again, accompanied by a man's scolding, "Why are there so many of you gathered here? Do you want to cause trouble? "
When He Ying heard the voice, she knew that it was the deputy director of the Cheng Guan police station, Gu Chongming, so she opened the door and pointed at Wu Zhiqi, who was standing at the door, and said, "Director Gu, he is the person suspected of causing trouble. Please take him away."
Gu Chongming took a closer look and recognized Wu Zhiqi as He Ying's husband. He couldn't help but be shocked and quickly said with a smile, "Political Commissar He, isn't this brother Wu? So you're a couple fighting. I don't dare to interfere. "
Wu Zhiqi was already a bit afraid when he saw that the police were really here, but when he heard Gu Chongming's words, he became arrogant again. He spat at Gu Chongming and said, "Director Gu, I'm not afraid of washing my dirty linen in public. I just wanted to come home to get something, but I didn't expect the door to be locked. She wouldn't open the door no matter how I called. I heard from my friends that He Ying has a lover and the two of them are openly living together in my house, so I wanted to kick the door in and catch them in the act. You're also a man, so you should know what it's like to be cuckolded by your wife — "
Gu Chongming's face turned green when he heard his last sentence. He interrupted him unhappily and said, "Brother Wu, can you think before you speak? What do you mean I should know what it's like to be cuckolded by my wife? Are you scolding me? "
When he said this, the surrounding police officers, including Wu Zhiqi's hired helpers, almost laughed out loud.
Wu Zhiqi thought carefully and realized that he said the wrong thing. He blushed and quickly apologized, "Director Gu, I'm sorry. I said the wrong thing."
Then his face showed an angry expression again. He pointed at He Ying and asked, "Do you dare say that there's no wild man hiding in your house right now? If you're not guilty, why did you lock the door? Why didn't you let me in to take a look? We're not divorced yet and this is my house. What reason do you have to shut me out? "
He Ying's face showed a trace of a mocking smile as she asked, "Wu Zhiqi, are you really sure that there's a wild man hiding in my house? What are you going to do if you can't find him later? "
Wu Zhiqi replied, "If I can't find him, I'll kneel down and kowtow to you three times and slap myself three times!"
"Alright, I hope you keep your word. Wu Zhigang, you are his younger brother. Accompany him in the search and be a witness. "
As she spoke, she stepped aside to make a path. Wu Zhiqi immediately rushed into the living room like a rabbit, followed by Wu Zhigang.
Wu Zhiqi first glanced around the living room, pulled open the curtains, and carefully checked everything. He then touched the anti-theft window railings. After feeling that there was nothing suspicious, he went into the kitchen and bathroom. He carefully checked every corner, then walked into the master bedroom and guest room. He opened all the cabinets and pulled open the curtains. He didn't even see a mouse.
Finally, he went to the balcony and opened the curtains to check carefully, but he found nothing.
When he walked back to the living room, Wu Zhiqi frowned and couldn't help but mutter, "Strange, why is there no one here?"
He Ying was in the living room. Seeing him walk out dejectedly and still muttering softly, she secretly rejoiced, but her mouth didn't spare him as she asked, "Wu Zhiqi, did you find my wild man? If you didn't find him, then you have to fulfill your promise. Kneel down and kowtow to me three times and slap yourself three times! "
Wu Zhiqi glared at her with resentment and ignored her words. He quickly walked out of the living room and waved to his friends, "We met a ghost today, let's go!"
He Ying immediately chased after him and said sternly to Gu Chongming, "Director Gu, Wu Zhiqi brought people here to cause trouble and just beat me up for no reason. Please immediately take them to the police station for questioning. I'll go with you to make a statement."
When Lu Tao heard He Ying's words, he immediately understood her intentions. That middle-aged man was still trapped in his house. If he didn't let the police take Wu Zhiqi and the others away, that man wouldn't be able to walk out of his house. That was why she insisted that Gu Chongming take responsibility for hitting her …
Although Gu Chongming knew that this was a fight between husband and wife and the police station couldn't handle it, he heard that Wu Zhiqi had just hit He Ying and saw that He Ying was so fierce. He didn't dare to hesitate and immediately stopped Wu Zhiqi and the others. He said with a straight face, "Brother Wu, I'm sorry. It's not our place to interfere in your family matters with Political Commissar He, but you hit Political Commissar He, so you're suspected of breaking the law. You have to go to the police station to explain clearly. The people who came with you are also involved, so they have to make a statement together. "
Wu Zhiqi knew that He Ying wanted to give him a hard time on purpose. Since Gu Chongming and the others were her colleagues, they would naturally side with her. No matter how he argued, it was useless. Thus, he glared fiercely at He Ying and obediently followed Gu Chongming and the others into the elevator. The people he called to help had no choice but to follow behind him.
Before He Ying left, she secretly held Lu Tao's hand while no one was paying attention. She used her fingertip to draw a line on the back of his hand. Her face revealed a trace of a charming smile, and she winked at him, indicating that he should quickly deal with the man hiding in the room. Only then did she follow Gu Chongming and the others into the elevator …
After everyone left, Lu Tao immediately took out his keys to open the door to his living room. With the help of the street lights shining in from outside, he saw the middle-aged man sitting upright on the sofa in the living room. It was as if what happened outside had nothing to do with him.
Lu Tao hurriedly turned on the living room lights. The man immediately stood up and turned to face Lu Tao with a trace of a smile on his face. He reached out his hand and said, "Young man, you've worked hard. Thank you! Your name is Lu Tao. You're an officer in Taolin County's Local Taxation Bureau, right? "
Lu Tao saw that he deliberately repeated his name and unit and knew that he wanted to remember his basic information. Perhaps he would find a way to repay him in the future. He couldn't help but feel moved. He felt that if he helped him get out of trouble this time, there might be some unexpected benefits in the future. He hurriedly reached out and tightly shook his hand. He said modestly, "Uncle, you're too polite! Commissar He usually cares about me and takes care of me. She's like a sister to me. Today, she's in trouble, so I should help. Please take a seat. I'll make you a cup of tea. "
The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "No need. I have to leave now. You've helped me and Xiao Ying a lot today and prevented a lot of embarrassing things. I'll remember this in my heart. I won't say anything else. If there's a chance in the future, you can come find me with Xiao Ying. We can talk about it in detail then. "
Lu Tao was also worried that a long night would cause trouble, so he didn't dare to ask him to stay. He walked him to the elevator and shook his hand again before returning home to lie down again.
