I never expected that Gao Laowei would answer me like this. This was so inconsistent with his timid and cowardly behavior.
At that time, I was already filled with rage, and a trace of murderous intent burst out from my eyes.
"Gao Laowei, are you really not afraid of death?!"
I yelled so loudly that my eyes felt like they were on fire.
At this time, Gao Laoli's body was as soft as a puddle of mud, and he slid directly from the chair to the ground.
With snot and tears streaming down his face, he said to me: "I'm afraid, I'm scared to death, but I really can't tell you who that person is, otherwise, he will kill my whole family!"
"Who is so bold to kill your whole family? Is it Er Donkey? He is already dead!"
"No, not him, not him!"
What surprised me was that Gao Laowei directly denied Erluzi, and it didn't look like he was lying.
I was also confused at that time. I had already pointed all the signs at Erluzi, but now it was not him, which made my thoughts messy again.
Gao Laowei seems to be my only clue to trace its origin and find the authentic white jade Yinglong sculpture, so in order to get the results I want, I don't mind using some extraordinary means.
I casually took the carved knife scattered aside in my hand, put it directly against Gao Lao's wilted eye socket, and then said fiercely again: "For the sake of the whole family, are you not afraid of death? Well, I I will help you, and now I will dig out your eyes!"
I admit that I would not actually gouge out his eyes, I just wanted to use them as a threat to get him to tell the truth.
Although I can't be that bloody and cruel, I can still make a few bloody holes in his body in order to achieve my goal.
Just when I was trying to force Gao Laowei to tell the truth with such cruel methods, two figures flashed in from outside the door. They turned out to be two police officers.
"Stop, put the knife down!"
When the two police officers saw that I was holding a carved knife in my hand, they both pulled out the guns from their waists and pointed them at me.
Cry…!
I have to say that I made too much noise. If I don't stop and continue, the consequences will be disastrous.
Finally, under the gunfire of two police officers, I gave up, and the carving knife in my hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound of metal collision.
Then a pair of cold handcuffs were firmly placed on my hands, and I didn't make any resistance.
"What's going on?"
One of the police officers asked Gao Laowei, who was still in shock.
I saw Mr. Gao regain his composure, his big eyes suddenly rolled in his sockets, and he immediately shouted: "Oh, Comrade Police Officers, you guys arrived just in time. This kid broke into a house and robbed him. If I don’t give him money, he’ll gouge out my eyes!”
The police officer frowned upon hearing this, then turned to me and said, "You are so brave at such a young age. You dare to break into a house and rob someone in broad daylight. Take him away!"
Just like that, I was escorted out and got into the police car. During this period, I did not protest, because things had reached this point. Even if I said something serious, the police would not believe me.
After arriving at the police station, or getting a confession from Gao Laoxiang, a police officer told me sternly that I was about to face a life in prison that could last for several years.
I did not rob, Gao Laowei was wrongly accusing me, so I did not believe what the police officer in front of me said. I believed that I would be out soon.
Just as I thought, the police officer who had threatened me with going to jail soon came back again. His face was ugly, as if he had suddenly lost some of his passion.
"You're lucky, the other party won't sue you, saying it was a misunderstanding."
After listening to the police officer's words, I didn't have any unnecessary expression on my face, because I knew I would definitely go out. As for why Gao Laowen suddenly dropped the charge against me, if my guess is correct, it should be Fatty Wu and the others. It was the work of father and son.
"Officer, can I leave?"
I stretched my hands forward with a look of indifference on my face, which meant that I wanted the police officer to open my handcuffs.
The police officer suddenly said angrily: "You can leave, but not now. According to the regulations, we have the right to detain you for forty-eight hours. When the time is up, I will naturally open the handcuffs for you and let you out!"
I knew that the police officer was angry that I walked out so arrogantly, so he used his last bit of power to suppress me.
I didn't refute, it was only forty-eight hours, and it passed quickly.
I had prepared to stay in this police station for forty-eight hours, but only a dozen hours later, someone came to pick me up.
I thought it would be Fatty Wu and his son, but unexpectedly it turned out to be Liu Baye's biological sister, Liu Qiaomei.
She came with Gouzi.
After seeing me, Liu Qiaomei didn't say anything. She didn't ask me what happened. She just winked at me and asked me to follow her.
It wasn't until she was very far out of the police station that Liu Qiaomei stopped moving forward, turned around and said to me with a very gloomy face: "There has been no news from my brother and the others for so long. I suspect something may have happened to them. Dongzi, go back." Get ready and come with me to the Northeast to find my brother tomorrow!"
When I heard that something might have happened to Mr. Liu Ba, I felt nervous at that time, and I nodded in agreement.
Seeing my promise, Liu Qiaomei immediately spoke again and said: "I don't know what grudges you have with the seal maker named Gao, but from now on you should not go to him again."
"Why?" I asked.
"Because just two hours ago, the whole family named Gao died!"
After saying that, Liu Qiaomei turned around and left with her dog, leaving me standing there blankly, without reacting for a long time.
It was such a coincidence that when I didn't go to look for the old man who was wilting, he was still fine. But when I went to the front leg, he died of the back leg, and the whole family was wiped out.
This is obviously a method used by the other party to kill people and silence them, in order to prevent me from continuing to investigate.
In this way, the clues were immediately cut off at Gao Laowei's place. Perhaps I will never be able to find the real white jade Yinglong sculpture again.
But in this way, I was speechless to face Mr. Liu Ba. He trusted me so much and handed the white jade Yinglong sculpture to me for safekeeping, but I obviously disappointed him.
If you make a mistake, you will have to face it sooner or later. I am not the kind of person who avoids mistakes, so I will not hide this matter. After meeting Mr. Liu, I will definitely tell him everything. Yes I don't have the slightest complaint whether he kills or cuts me into pieces.
But before that, we must first find Liu Baye.
As one of the Nine Provinces Dragon Souls, the White Jade Yinglong Sculpture is indeed important, but to me, no matter how important it is, it is not as important as Liu Baye.
It was Mr. Liu who rescued me from the hands of human traffickers. Without him, I might have died long ago, so to me Mr. Liu is my reborn parent.
In this world, except for my own hatred, no one or anything can replace Liu Baye's place in my heart.
So I secretly vowed that during this trip to the Northeast, even if I risk my life, I will definitely find Mr. Liu and find Mr. Liu alive.
I was secretly making up my mind when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind me, and then a woman's voice came into my ears.
"Xie Dongzi, stop!"
I was stunned and quickly turned my head, and I saw a uniformed policewoman walking towards me quickly, and she seemed to look a little familiar.
It wasn't until the policewoman walked up to me and stopped that I remembered where I had seen the policewoman in front of me.
Isn't this the same female police officer who helped me investigate when my antique shop was stolen last time?
Although we knew each other, I didn't want to have anything to do with these people's servants, so I asked them with some resistance: "Officer, you called me, what's the matter?"
