"Old Wu, what's going on?" Bai Qiandao didn't know what was going on and felt uneasy.
Manager Wu stopped and looked at the person he was dealing with just now. He was not used to him calling him Lao Wu, am I so close to you?
He paused for a moment and said: "Secretary Liu...Liu Neng was on the 39th floor. He opened the window and jumped..."
Seeing Manager Wu running away again, Bai Qiandao was stunned.
At this time, Vice President Qin walked quickly and frowned when he saw him.
Vice President Qin walked over and said, "Liu Neng jumped off the building."
"I just heard about it. How come he... can't look away?" Bai Qiandao replied in a daze.
"He has been following me for three years, and I understand his situation. His family is a single generation, and all the people who can make money are dead. There are two old people over 100 years old who need his support. He has been paying a high mortgage loan, and his wife Being unemployed and pregnant, maybe this was such a huge blow that he thought there was no way to survive, and that’s why he wanted to die.”
Vice President Qin shook his head and walked away again. Bai Qiandao stood behind him with a calm expression.
Liu Neng's salary was not bad, but the mortgage loan probably accounted for the majority of his expenses. He suddenly lost his job, and then he began to think about death. Bai Qiandao really didn't expect Liu Neng's psychology to be so fragile. He was once the bully in school, but after entering the society, he was not as tough as him, living as tenaciously as grass.
Feeling very confused, he returned to the reception room and lay on the sofa like a dead fish, his eyes dull and his mind blank.
It wasn't until a bodyguard came in and told him that Mai Tianxue was going back that he stood up in despair.
"Ms. Mai, how much is Liu Neng's pension?" Bai Qiandao asked on the speed train.
"He...has been fired and has no pension." Mai Tianxue said quietly: "I know what happened. This person usually behaves well, but he is too arrogant and domineering towards you. The Mai Group does not need such people. Just die!"
Then he asked: "Have you known him before?"
"Yes, he is what I said, the little bully who beat me up at school..."
Bai Qiandao hesitated and said, "I want to ask you a favor. Please provide a pension to his family. If I borrow it, I will pay it back to you."
"He did this to you, why did you do this?" Mai Tianxue looked at him deeply and asked.
"His wife is unemployed, pregnant, has two elderly people to support, and has a mortgage to pay off. I...Today's chance encounter inspired him to hate me all the time, so he would target me like this, but I didn't expect him to I will commit suicide because of this, which makes me feel guilty!”
Mai Tianxue pondered and said, "Okay, I will provide a pension to his family..."
Then he looked at Bai Qiandao and said, "You have a kind side... I would like to advise you, in this world, kind hearts are easily deceived by others, and they may end up hurting themselves."
Bai Qiandao said: "Maybe! At least my conscience will feel better... I will write you an IOU for the five thousand I borrowed last time!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't pay it back."
"No, I have to pay you back. This is the money I borrowed."
Mai Tianxue smiled and said: "I believe in your character, so there is no need to write an IOU."
Bai Qiandao was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you! I make a promise to you now that I will do my best to resolve the crisis in the Mai family!"
Mai Tianxue nodded and said: "Having this promise is more important than anything else. I also believe in you."
No matter what, Bai Qiandao is determined to help Mai Tianxue and resolve this Mai family crisis. Even if the task expires, he will continue. This is his promise, and he is a person who attaches great importance to promises.
The life of the Mai family is wealthy and leisurely, without any disturbances. Bai Qiandao is waiting for Mai Tianxue's people to investigate the origin of the tiger demon.
It's been two days and I haven't done much, just sunbathing on the roof out of boredom.
Watching a speeding car approaching in the distance, I got permission to fly over and stop, as if Gao Xinyi was stepping down. The Mai family villa complex was relatively large, and the flying car was parked on another roof, dozens of meters away, so he couldn't see it very clearly.
That place was Mai Shouye's residence. Bai Qiandao didn't know what the suspected high-minded person was doing and didn't take it to heart.
After a while, he received a call from Mai Tianxue asking him to come.
Came to a room where sat Gao Xinyi, Mai Tianxue and Mai Shouye, and Mai Shouye's concubine, sitting elegantly next to him. This second-generation ancestor was accompanied by women wherever he went.
Mai Tianxue looked slightly angry and looked angry. Gao Xinyi glanced at Bai Qiandao with an unfriendly look.
Mai Shouye was a little wilted, his head drooped, with a sad look on his face, as if he was still upset.
"Although I dislike you very much, Tianxue wants you to come. She values you very much and hopes you won't cause trouble." Gao Xinyi said.
When Bai Qiandao came in, he felt very uncomfortable after hearing this, but he didn't say anything and silently found a seat to sit down.
"The purpose of the attacker has been found out. That person is my father's illegitimate son, because..." Mai Tianxue looked at Mai Shouye and said, "My father did not recognize him, which made him dissatisfied. I don't know how. He got a rocket launcher and did this. He wanted to blow up my father, but he probably missed the mark because he was unfamiliar with the operation."
Bai Qiandao was surprised. Thinking about it, it was true that Mai Shouye's residence was not far from the room that was bombed. If he turned slightly, he would probably be reimbursed. He really didn't expect that it would be like this.
Mai Tianxue added: "I have already told Vice Minister Gao...the tiger demon I killed...the police will intervene in the investigation..."
Bai Qiandao frowned slightly. He didn't know why Mai Tianxue said it. This statement was also to keep a secret for himself. Moreover, she is very accomplished in ancient martial arts. She can still kill a little tiger demon, there is no doubt about it.
"What do you think?" Mai Tianxue asked.
"Not yet..." Bai Qiandao saw that Mai Tianxue was signaling in his eyes but did not express his thoughts.
"Tianxue, he doesn't seem to have much ability. Why do you want him here?" Gao Xinyi said disdainfully.
Mai Tianxue said: "I won't invite people who are incompetent..."
Turning to Bai Qiandao, he said: "Because firearms were used in the Piaoxiang Imperial Capital, the Spirit Shield Bureau dispatched elite forces. The current situation is that the Spirit Shield Bureau and the police department cooperate in the investigation. I just made a suggestion to Deputy Minister Gao, send me people to participate together, please go..."
"No, Tianxue, you can send anyone, but he can't." Gao Xinyi objected immediately.
"Vice Minister Gao, he is the professional who helped me solve this matter. He is also the best. He is a person I trust. I value him very much and he must go."
Gao Xinyi frowned, looked at Bai Qiandao again, then thought about it, it would be okay if this person was not by Gao Tianxue's side at all times, and nodded.
Bai Qiandao also frowned slightly and looked at Gao Xinyi. This man was often unfriendly to him. You are a senior official in the imperial government, so you can be so rude to me?
All right! It's really possible...
Although the Five Elements Alliance advocates equality for everyone, it is only superficial. Class divisions are very serious. Although the rich and powerful are subject to certain restrictions by the law, they will still do various things to oppress the common people. It is a common phenomenon for upper-class people to look down on lower-class people, not to mention that Gao Xinyi is a high-ranking official. Although not all high-ranking officials are like him, there are still many.
Gao Xinyi probably had something else to do, so he didn't stay too long and left. Bai Qiandao and Mai Tianxue were alone.
"What do you think?" Mai Tianxue asked, truly asking Bai Qiandao what he thought.
"I can conclude that the attacker is for manipulation, and since the other party knows that he is an illegitimate son of the Mai family, he probably knows a lot about the Mai family. It is time to check the people who have connections with the Mai family."
Mai Tianxue frowned and said: "I think so too, I will do a good job of screening... call you over and ask you to participate in the investigation. On the one hand, it is for Gao Xinyi to see. This person lacks ability, but he is not You are an idiot and very insidious. It is not easy to achieve the position of deputy department. I need to emphasize to him the importance I attach to you and reduce his interference. On the surface, he will not do anything to you, but secretly I must guard against him being cruel. hand……"
"Wait, I'm confused, why would he be so cruel to me?" Bai Qiandao asked in surprise.
"He has been pursuing me for many years, but I have always kept a distance from him. He understands in his heart that I can only accept him when the Mai family declines, otherwise he will have no chance. Therefore, not only will he not help the Mai family, but he will also be involved in it. If you mess up, I will definitely take action against you."
Looking at Mai Tianxue with a calm expression, Bai Qiandao smiled bitterly and said, "It's a bit complicated. It also involves love and grudges. I always thought he was doing it for you. I really want to help the Mai family... So, I will be in danger. Bar!"
"Yes, Uncle Zhang will be at home. I don't have any psychics under my command, but you are both a psychic and a strange master. You are very powerful. Only you have the ability to participate in the investigation."
Bai Qiandao smiled bitterly again and said: "I, a spiritual power user, can't beat you now, I'm not strong."
"But you will continue to get stronger. That day...your strange training method, I have never heard of it, and it shocked me. I think you can do this well with your ability."
"Okay, leave it to me! I made a promise to you, and I will do it no matter how dangerous it is."
Mai Tianxue looked at Bai Qiandao, with tenderness in his eyes, and said, "Keeping your promise is a valuable character."
In the evening, Bai Qiandao came to a place and met Mai Shouye.
Accompanying Mai Shouye is the concubine he saw during the day. It seems that this girl is deeply loved by him.
The concubine looked quiet and elegant, making coffee aside. Mai Shouye looked at Bai Qiandao and said, "I called you here because I have something to ask for. I hope you can agree."
Bai Qiandao looked at the robot Xiaozhu in the corner and said, "Please tell me."
Mai Shouye showed a trace of sadness on his face, sighed, and said: "Forty years ago, I met a woman and had a night with her. I didn't expect that she was pregnant... After my wife found out, she was determined not to let her go. She entered the house, and she disappeared. Ten years ago, my... son found me and learned that his mother was dead. It was because my wife didn't agree, so I had to reject him ruthlessly. My wife was very sad. It's amazing, Tianxue just follows her, she can control everything about me at any time, so I have no choice but to avoid meeting him and help him. Until my wife passed away, I couldn't find him again when I tried to find him... …”
