Chapter 50 (1/2)
Ye Qian looked at w.a.n.g Yu in surprise and asked, “Yatou, why do you hate me so much? Why are you always giving me trouble?”
“I’m only doing my job. Right now somebody has accused you of murder. It would be best for you to come with us.” said w.a.n.g Yu, still expressionless.
“When did I kill someone? Don’t slander me.” replied Ye Qian.
“Last night, very early at one in the morning, a Chinese man named Zhao Xie was murdered. We have witnesses that identified you as the a.s.sa.s.sin.”w.a.n.g Yu replied.
When Ye Qian heard w.a.n.g Yu say this, he couldn’t help but smile. If whatw.a.n.g Yu said was true, then somebody was framing him for sure. Ye Qiancouldn’t imagine who it could possibly be, but the opponent was severely underestimating him. They dared to use such a lousy plan to make a move. He hadn’t killed anybody, so this would be an easy matter to clear up.
“Zhao Xie?” Ye Qian mumbled aloud, thinking that it must be the boyfriend of Lin Rou Rou’s old cla.s.smate. If he remembered correctly, he had received a kick by Ye Qian at the Bewitched Bar. “Why would I kill him?” Ye Qian said helplessly.
“Only you would know the answer to that.” w.a.n.g Yu replied. “Where were you during the early hours of the morning yesterday?”
“I was sleeping at home, of course.” Ye Qian replied.
“Do you have witnesses to vouch for you?” w.a.n.g Yu asked.
Ye Qian thought about it. At that time he was with Zhao Tian Hao but right now somebody was obviously framing him. In order to attempt to bring the person framing him to light, after a pause Ye Qian replied, “None. I was alone.” When he said this, he looked at w.a.n.g Yu with an ambiguous expression, as if to say, “So I was alone, do you have the desire to see for yourself?”
When she saw Ye Qian’s vulgar expression, she recalled what this guy did to her back at the police station, but her anger did not come out. She didn’t know why, but for the past few days, after that incident, the shadow of the scoundrel was always lingering in her mind, impossible to get rid of. Today, she had just gotten back to the office, when the Bureau Chief commanded her to find Ye Qian and arrest him as quickly as possible. There was even a special command, if Ye Qian were to resist, she was allowed to shoot him dead. At the time w.a.n.g Yu was extremely shocked, she was worried for Ye Qian’s sake; however, she had already been working in the police department for a while, and she understood the Bureau Chief’s character. This time he was being very strict, so it must be that he received orders from someone above him.
While they were on their way, w.a.n.g Yu had been thinking about how to save Ye Qian, but once she saw this scoundrel she did not know what to say. Not only was this scoundrel not grateful, he was also making things difficult for her, so it really made her feel wronged. However, she couldn’t let herself say, “Don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to you.” These words were too embarra.s.sing, so she couldn’t bring herself to say it.
w.a.n.g Yu had her own reasons not to use violence, but Yang Wei did not. Even though Ye Qian was the older brother of the Public Security Chief, this time the orders personally came from the Head of the Munic.i.p.al Committee. Even Chief Ou could only obey the order, Yang Wei would not let this opportunity go to waste. Moreover, the Bureau Chief authorized them to kill if necessary. If Ye Qian were to resist arrest, they could shoot. Even though the Bureau Chief did not say it clearly, Yan Wei still understood that this was giving them a pretext to kill Ye Qian. Even the fact that Chief Ou was his brother would be of no help to him. Perhaps other people didn’t know who was framing Ye Qian, but Yang Wei knew very well. The background of this person was much bigger than Ye Qian’s. He only had to handle this matter satisfactorily, and his promotion was just around the corner.
