"It's not like you are involved in this matter. Why are you panicking?"
Lao Li Niu glared and shouted at Qiao Youjia.
"Yes, it's mainly because the matter is so big that everyone has to be afraid."
Qiao Youjia took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied with lingering fear.
"We know that this matter probably has nothing to do with you, Boss Qiao. I came here to ask you something..."
Ma Xiaoguang put down the tea cup and said slowly to Qiao Youjia.
"But please give me instructions, sir."
Qiao Youjia bowed and said.
Ma Xiaoguang sneered and asked Qiao Youjia: "Chang Weiguo is just a major staff officer, so he suspects that he has some business dealings with people outside. Even if he is really investigated, it won't be a big deal."
"Boss Qiao, you're giving me gifts and inviting me to a show. I'm afraid it's not that simple. We are all open-minded people, so it's better not to hide it."
Hearing this, Qiao Youjia was excited and said quickly: "It's really not..."
Although he said this, his expression told Ma Xiaoguang that there was something more to this matter.
"Ma Dan, you guy, you really don't know what's good and what's good. You have to know that I'm a spy, but regardless of the evidence, if you piss me off, Mr. Li, I'll shoot you to death!"
Next to him, Lao Li took out the horse playing card from his waist and slapped it on the coffee table with a bang.
"explain!"
At this moment, Ma Xiaoguang shouted, which frightened Qiao Youjia so much that her legs softened and she almost sat on the ground.
"Alas! At this point, I can only tell the truth. I belong to Deputy Commander Han. Now Deputy Commander Han is having a meeting in Henan Province. I heard that the situation is not good..."
"Everyone came to Xuzhou at this time. We estimated that it would be detrimental to Deputy Commander Han, so we came up with this strategy. Firstly, we wanted to show mercy to several officers, and secondly, we also wanted to show mercy to several..."
Qiao Youjia timidly confessed in a trembling voice. At the end of the sentence, her voice was so quiet that it was almost inaudible.
"Are the other gift-givers also your people?"
When Lao Li heard this, he asked fiercely.
Ma Xiaoguang was sitting on the sofa, silent, looking like he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand.
"Yes, those are all Deputy Commander Han's old subordinates... We are all worried about Deputy Commander Han's safety and are just trying to help him think of something."
Qiao Youjia bowed anxiously and answered.
"Although these things are excusable, they are not tolerated by the law. Later, you can write a document yourself as mentioned above and sign and fingerprint it."
Ma Xiaoguang thought for a while and said to Qiao Youjia calmly.
Qiao Youjia accepted the order and immediately picked up a pen and paper and began to write his confession as if he had been granted amnesty.
Half an hour later, everything was settled, and Ma Xiaoguang and Lao Li left Jiaxiang Store with Qiao Youjia's autographed confession.
"Sir, is this the end of the matter?"
Lao Li asked Ma Xiaoguang quietly with some confusion.
Ma Xiaoguang shook his head and said: "I don't want to touch these idiots right now. I'm afraid their Deputy Commander Han has been locked up now, and the situation is very dangerous."
"Could it be that this traitor is Deputy Commander Han? Isn't this too sensational?"
Lao Li opened his eyes wide and asked in disbelief.
"Deputy Commander Han is fearful and cowardly in battle. It is certain that he ran away in the face of battle, but to say that he collaborated with the enemy, I don't think it is possible... These people were just pushed out by someone who wanted to take the blame."
Ma Xiaoguang said to Lao Li meaningfully.
"What do you mean, old man, that we only catch spies and don't ask about anything else?"
Lao Li finally came to his senses and asked quietly.
"Yes, in this extraordinary period, we can no longer fight among ourselves. It is only right to find this 'mole' quickly and catch the real lurking neon spy."
Ma Xiaoguang was obviously very satisfied with Lao Li's realization and nodded approvingly.
Lao Li glanced at Ma Xiaoguang, nodded solemnly, and said no more.
Back at the officers' hostel, it was already dark.
The fat man had already returned. When he saw the two of them, he quickly came over and reported the situation.
"According to the people at the hotel, two days ago, several rooms in their store had no electricity. The shopkeeper Li Ruicai called in an electrician from the electric light factory to check the wiring..."
The fat man lowered his voice and reported to Ma Xiaoguanghui solemnly.
"How's the electrician doing?"
Ma Xiaoguang's face moved slightly and he asked quickly.
The fat man reported back calmly: "The electrician's surname is Hu, known as Hu Laosan, and his given name is Hu Degui. He came to Xuzhou three years ago."
"Hey, I've already dug up the person involved. Fatty can do it!"
Lao Li stood aside and praised with a smile.
The fat man didn't pretend to be thirteen at all this time. He kept a humble and cautious expression and waited for Commander Ma's instructions.
"You're investigating this matter. There's no one who can fake it, right?"
Ma Xiaoguang asked the fat man in a deep voice.
"Sir, don't worry. This is all first-hand information from my own investigation. No one else has handled it."
The fat man answered firmly and affirmatively.
"Okay, without further ado, let's take action immediately and prepare to arrest this Hu Laosan!"
Ma Xiaoguang's eyes were sharp, and he ordered Lao Li and Fatty in a deep voice.
The three of them put on black police uniforms, took advantage of the darkness, and sneaked all the way to the vicinity of the Sanmin Street Electric Lighting Company.
"That Hu Laosan is a bachelor and lives not far from the electric lighting company..."
The fat man whispered to Ma Xiaoguang and Lao Li.
"Have you checked the area around the house? Don't act like we did at the Datong Hotel during the day!"
Lao Li suddenly remembered something and reminded the fat man in a deep voice.
The fat man patted his chest and replied: "Don't worry, I came here to check after I found out who was named Hu... We can't always fall into the same trap, can we?"
Ma Xiaoguang nodded, did not speak, but made a gesture to Lao Li and Fatty to disperse their actions.
The three of them didn't say anything, they each found a path and went their separate ways.
Lao Li turned to the back door and blocked the other party's way.
The fat man took out some things from the satchel that he had kept with him all year round and helped Commander Ma get ready.
After everything was done, the fat man stepped aside, and Ma Xiaoguang walked to the front door with a registration book.
After listening for a while and not hearing any strange noise, Ma Xiaoguang knocked on the door.
"who?"
A muffled voice came from inside the door.
"Registering the population from the household registration section of the police station."
The other party is from the electric lighting company, and the trick of checking the water meter and electric meter is not easy to use, so I can only say this.
There were footsteps inside the door, and soon the door opened a crack.
Seeing Ma Xiaoguang in police uniform, the other party felt at ease and opened the door.
"Are you Hu Degui?"
Ma Xiaoguang asked without raising his head while holding the registration book.
"I am……"
The person at the door quickly answered.
Just halfway through speaking, the other party noticed something was wrong, his expression changed, his stature suddenly dwarfed, and he jumped out.
However, he didn't jump very far, just three or five steps.
Hu Laosan suddenly felt a tightness in his ankle and tripped under his feet. With a "pop", he fell firmly to the ground.
