Return to Ningxiang Pavilion.
Zhou Sen took a hot bath to wash away the bad smell from his body. Otherwise, how could he have the nerve to lie next to his sweet-smelling wife.
Conditions permit, it is still necessary to pay attention to hygiene.
It not only makes you happy physically and mentally, but also makes the people around you feel happy.
"Are you free these two days? Come with me to see Dr. Liu again?" Bai Yulan sat with her back on the bed. When she saw Zhou Sen coming in, she put down a book in her hand.
"Let me squeeze in some time. The National Police Agency assigned me another task and seconded me to the Foreign Affairs Department."
"Foreign Affairs Department, what are you doing in the Foreign Affairs Department?"
"I can't speak Russian and Japanese. They want to hold a large-scale diplomatic and social event over there and they are short of manpower. They can second me there." Zhou Sen said, "I don't want to go either. I'm celebrating the New Year. I'll take a rest at home and stay with you. How nice."
"Foreign affairs activities, what kind of activities?"
"It seems that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Bingcheng government are organizing a gathering for consular and diplomatic personnel from various countries in Bingcheng. Not only will they visit the governance situation, but there will also be a party in the evening. The consulates of various countries have received invitations. If conditions permit, they are willing to attend the party. Anyone who showed off his dancing skills and singing voice can perform on stage!”
"Who came up with this? After eating enough, let the diplomats perform on the stage?" Bai Yulan said in surprise.
"Those who can do diplomacy are versatile. Without any talent, how can they be good at dancing?" Zhou Sen chuckled, "This is an opportunity to show off. Of course, the Japanese take this opportunity to promote their so-called royal paradise in Manchuria. Construction, face-saving activities, whitewashing of peace.”
"when?"
"Maybe around New Year's Eve, maybe before or after the New Year, but for such a big event, it takes at least a week to prepare. I guess the possibility is higher after the New Year." Zhou Sen analyzed and judged.
"That's okay, don't make people calm down even after the Chinese New Year." Bai Yulan said, "By the way, Xiao Yuehong, what did you think about it?"
"Yu Lan, what do you think?"
"I know you are concerned about Xiaorou's feelings and are unwilling to take advantage of Xiao Yuehong, but in this case, we will become Su Wenqing's vanguard against Qin Xiong?"
"Qin Xiong is here for me this time. No matter what I do, he will not let me go, even if I send Xiao Yuehong to Su Wenqing."
"But, since Su Wenqing wants to take advantage of you, he can't just hide behind him and reap the benefits, right?" Bai Yulan said.
"Yes, then bring him in. If he wants to watch a show, there's no way." Zhou Sen is not a moral gentleman. Putting Xiao Yuehong in his place will indeed bring danger to the safety of everyone in Ningxiang Pavilion.
Qin Xiong has already attacked Jiang Rou, and he probably won't do it again in a short period of time, but if Xiao Yuehong is in Ningxiang Pavilion, it's hard to say.
"Xiaorou is just too kind-hearted..." Bai Yulan sighed and extinguished the bedside lamp.
"Xiaorou doesn't know about Sun Qingkui's death, right?"
"I haven't had time to say it yet."
"Find an opportunity tomorrow and tell her."
"Um."
…
Songhua School, interrogation room.
Hou Wu was escorted in. There was no trace of fear on his face. Instead, he was cursing and didn't take the person seriously at all.
However, when he saw that the person interrogating him was actually Li Shaotang, his expression finally changed.
He knew Li Shaotang's reputation. He was known as "King of Hell" in the Bingcheng Police Department. No matter how tough the prisoners were in his hands, there was no one who didn't speak obediently, and he almost never failed.
He never imagined that he would meet Li Shaotang.
"Hou Wu, when it comes to my hands, you should know that it's impossible not to speak. I don't want to embarrass you, so you might as well say it." Li Shaotang came in holding a tea cup and said easily.
"I am Qiye's man. You know, if you dare to attack me, aren't you afraid of Qiye's wrath?" Hou Wudao.
"I know, but Master Qi has retired, and now Qin Xiong is in charge of the Qin family." Li Shaotang said, "If you were Qin Xiong, I would still be afraid. After all, I can't afford to offend the big Buddha above him, but You are different."
"Li Shaotang, don't expect anything from me."
"I have no grievances with you, so what do I want?" Li Shaotang chuckled and said slowly, "You don't know what you have committed. Do you need me to walk you through it from beginning to end? "
"Li Shaotang, this is the grudge between the eldest son and Zhou Sen and Su Wenqing. Why do you want to intervene?" Hou Wu asked.
"I don't care about your grudges, but if you do something illegal, then I can't ignore it. I have to be worthy of the clothes I'm wearing, what do you think?"
"Li Shaotang, you and Director Lin get a lot from our Qin family every year, why do you have to do everything possible?"
"What you gave me would be indispensable for another person in this position. It's not specially given to us." Li Shaotang said with a chuckle.
"Anyway, you won't get anything from me." Hou Wuyi gritted his teeth and said.
"I'm sorry then. Although I'm not very familiar with this place, the things should be the same." Li Shaotang smiled slightly.
…
When he got up early in the morning, Zhou Sen went to work. There were a lot of things to do today, and the day was not long. It would not be enough if he didn't make good use of it.
"Uncle Li, thank you for your hard work. This is the breakfast I brought you. It's still hot." Zhou Sen drove to Songhua School first.
Li Shaotang stayed up all night with Hou Wu.
Eyes are red.
"Oops, I'm getting old. I haven't slept all night and I can't stand it anymore." Li Shaotang took the breakfast bought by Zhou Sen and laughed at himself.
"You are not old. You are in your prime, how can you be old?" Zhou Sen quickly flattered, "By the way, has he recruited you?"
"Are you doubting your Uncle Li's ability?" Li Shaotang took a bite of the meat bun and said as oil oozed out.
"No, I heard that Hou Wu is famous as a hobbitter. If he cheats on Uncle Li, it's hard to tell."
"When this prisoner is in my hands, it's hard not to speak. Don't worry, he has said everything he needs to say." Li Shaotang said.
Zhou Sen nodded. Li Shaotang made it obvious that Hou Wu must have said something, but he had reservations.
"Thank you, Uncle Li. I'm going to meet Hou Wu." Zhou Sen said.
"Next time you have a job like this, you'd better say hello in advance." Li Shaotang nodded and reminded Zhou Sen.
"Yes, I remember."
…
Zhou Sen saw Hou Wu, a half-dead human body. It was obvious that Li Shaotang was careful not to torture the person to death.
alive.
This guy is really tough. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn't be able to pry his mouth open overnight.
There was almost no good piece of meat on his body. If he hadn't been breathing, he would have thought it was just a pile of rotten meat.
Li Shaotang was so cruel.
No wonder he is known as "King Li of Hell". Most people really can't bear such torture.
"Fifth Master Hou?"
When Hou Wu heard someone calling him, his eyes opened slightly. When he saw clearly that it was Zhou Sen, he struggled to support his body and wanted to sit up.
Zhou Sen reached over and helped him up.
"Fifth Master Hou, if I had known this before, why did I do it in the first place?" Zhou Sen sighed.
"Zhou, Zhou Sen, eldest son, I won't let you go..." Hou Wu opened his mouth slightly and said in a whisper.
"You'd better care about yourself." Zhou Sen said, it is rare to see such a person who does evil and does not repent, but is so foolish and loyal.
Hou Wu suddenly laughed, it was so captivating that it made people's hair straighten.
Zhou se knew that Hou Wu had nothing to ask, so he retreated directly from the cell.
"This is the testimony signed by Hou Wu himself. I leave it to you. This piece of paper belongs to you. I am just doing a favor." Li Shaotang handed Hou Wu's confession testimony to his hand and said.
Zhou Sen looked through it and found that Hou Wu had taken all the charges, including instructing Luan Yuanhui to kidnap Jiang Rou and Qin Lang.
Hou Wu said in his testimony that the person he wanted to invite was actually Qin Lang, and that the kidnapping of Jiang Rou was incidental, which was completely contrary to what Luan Yuanhui said.
This was obviously a lie, but he admitted it.
No matter what, he admitted that he was the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Jiang Rou and Qin Lang. This crime was enough to sentence him to ten or eight years in prison.
Hou Wu did this to protect Qin Xiong.
Of course, anyone with a discerning eye would know at a glance that whether Hou Wu admitted that he kidnapped Jiang Rou and took Qin Lang with him, or whether he targeted Qin Lang and took Jiang Rou with him, it was Qin Xiong's instigation.
Hou Wu was Qin Xiong's subordinate, and he had no grudge against these two people, so he just kidnapped him for the purpose of pleasing Qin Xiong?
No normal person would think this way.
However, Hou Wu killed him in one blow. This was his idea, and Luan Yuanhui had no direct contact with Qin Xiong.
His testimony can only be indirect testimony and cannot directly prove Qin Xiong's involvement.
The only person who can prove that Qin Xiong designed to kidnap Jiang Rou and Qin Lang is Xiao Yuehong, but with Qin Xiong's caution, he will not tell Xiao Yuehong his thoughts easily.
The most he said was vague, so that Jiang Rou could not appear on the stage of the sealed performance. Then, she, the only substitute, would have a chance.
As for the method, he would definitely not tell. Even if he was asked, he could just push it away and say that he asked Hou Wu to handle the matter, but he did not ask him to kidnap Jiang Rou.
The only thing that can be fought is that Hou Wu didn't know that Xiao Yuehong had been controlled, and he said in his confession that the purpose of his kidnapping was Qin Lang, not Jiang Rou, but if Xiao Yuehong doesn't come forward to testify, everything will be in vain. .
Whether the evidence is important or not depends on the person. If Zhou Sen and Jiang Rou were just ordinary people, none of this would matter. Even Hou Wu would not be caught at all, there would be no punishment at all, and he would be at ease.
But when two people with both backgrounds and strengths confront each other, then evidence is important, because if one party cannot convince the other party, then it is better to use evidence, unless one party can prevent even the evidence from being brought to the stage.
Zhou Sen was mentally prepared for this outcome.
This battle has just begun. The key to determining the outcome is the attitude of the Japanese.
A dog cannot defeat its master.
Since Zhou Sen is pretending to be a "dog", he can only do things within the scope of these rules, because it is not yet time to take off the dog's skin and flip the table.
