Hearing Zhou Xi's words, Captain Long also sighed. He kept looking at Zhou Xi as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't say anything and changed the topic.
”This person is a graduate student. He just graduated and has some background in his family. That's why he directly took over my position.”
Zhou Xixi naturally understood this official matter. After thinking for a while, he suddenly asked Captain Long, ”Uncle Long, which side is this newcomer on?”
When Captain Long saw that Zhou Xi had raised this topic, he did not answer him. The glint in his eyes was unnatural.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Xi knew what was going on. He slapped his chair and said, ”Wang Fangyao is really going too far. Even if my father lives in the hospital, are my other uncles weak? You actually dare to bully our family members like this! ”
Xia Mingyuan and I looked at each other, knowing that Captain Long's ”promotion” was probably an official battle. This wasn't our field of expertise, so we didn't say anything.
Xia Mingyuan closed his eyes and didn't say anything, but he was thinking carefully in his heart. He took out his phone and sent messages to his friends to inquire about some things.
Captain Long's promotion seemed to be a very simple and common occurrence, but now that it was involved in such a case and the way it was handled was illogical, which made it worth thinking more deeply about.
When we arrived at the Public Security Bureau, Xia Mingyuan received a message. He looked at the situation his friend posted and knew that his guess was correct.
Captain Long and Zhou Xi walked in front, while Xia Mingyuan and I walked behind. Just as we were about to enter the police station, Xia Mingyuan stopped them.
”What's wrong?”
Captain Long was so anxious that he wanted to rush in. When Xia Mingyuan stopped him, he nearly stumbled and fell to the ground. After stabilizing himself with great difficulty, he looked at him with a puzzled expression.
”We don't need to go in. If we go in now, we will only alert the snake and the grass. Moreover, we won't be able to ask any questions if we go in. The police won't let us get involved. ”
I looked at Xia Mingyuan in astonishment. Seeing how calm and composed he was, I was quite sure that he had an answer. I thought back to when he looked at his phone.
”Then what should we do?”
After all, Zhou Xixi had been with us for a long time, and he had met with a lot of things. Seeing Xia Mingyuan like this, he had a plan in his heart, so he retreated from the police station.
”Return to the Lin Clan and we will discuss this anew!”
We nodded and prepared to leave, but Captain Long stayed where he was, as if he couldn't accept such a thing.
”We rushed over in a hurry, are we really not going in?”
Captain Long looked into my eyes, wanting to confirm with me, as if wanting to hear different answers from me.
I didn't have any direction to go, so I could only follow Xia Mingyuan's decision. I resolutely said to Captain Long, ”Yes!”
Hearing my words, Captain Long became extremely angry. He rushed inside while shouting angrily: ”If you don't go by yourself, then I'll go by myself. These are all living beings!”
Zhou Xi saw that Captain Long was extremely excited and understood what he was thinking. He quickly ran over to stop him.
”Uncle Long, it's not that we don't want to help them solve the case, but that the deceased are already dead. Isn't it more important for us to fight for more chances for survival?”
Hearing her words, Captain Long knew it was true, but he had already come to the police station and refused to go in. He just couldn't accept it.
”Couldn't we talk it over in the police station?”
Xia Mingyuan shook his head, indicating that he couldn't.
”I'm afraid no one knows how many people there are in the police station that we can trust. Once they find out about this, it will be even more difficult!”
