Li Jie came here again. He came here today to 'report' the case. After all, Deputy Prosecutor Wu is also very concerned about the progress of the case, and he still has key evidence in his hand.
Reporting to the other party is a matter of course.
The second is to help Wu Aike relax. As the exam period approaches, Wu Aike becomes more and more nervous and has to stay up late every day before falling asleep.
In addition, the Pingkang County Procuratorate has been extremely busy recently. The combination of the two made her lose weight at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she gained five or six pounds in just one month.
In the study room.
Deputy Inspector Wu was very distressed when he saw his daughter's emaciated appearance. He even wanted to persuade his daughter to give up the idea of going to the Metropolitan Procuratorate.
"Aike, look at how thin you are now. Are you under a lot of stress?"
"Not big." Wu Aike shook his head.
Deputy Prosecutor Wu sighed: "Oh, now I regret telling you to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
Wu Aike smiled naively: "Dad, you are overthinking, I am trying to lose weight! You and mom are both from the previous generation. You don't understand the current aesthetics at all. We have a generation gap."
"Nonsense!" Deputy Inspector Wu said with a straight face, "Where did you learn these fallacies? How can you lose weight? You are already so thin, do you want to be a paper person?"
"hey-hey!"
Wu Aike chuckled. On the surface, he seemed to agree with his father's statement, but in fact, he didn't want to say too much, lest his father, who was attentive and thoughtful, notice something.
Now that she has decided to go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate together, she has to put in 120% of her efforts. It doesn't matter if she suffers a little and is tired. As long as the two of them can be together, all the hard work will be worth it.
"Okay, Jiang Yang is coming up soon. You can go out first. I will have to talk to him about some work matters later."
"Well, I'll go down and pick him up right now."
Wu Aike nodded obediently.
After a while, Li Jie came downstairs carrying two big bags. As soon as Wu Aike saw his figure, she immediately ran over and took one of the bags.
After taking the bag, Wu Aike glanced at the contents in the bag and complained as he walked.
"Why buy so much? There are only a few people in our family, how can we eat them all?"
Li Jie chuckled and said casually: "If you can't finish eating, you can put it in the refrigerator."
Wu Aike rolled his eyes: "Okay, okay, okay, whoever let our Prosecutor Jiang get a large sum of royalties, just treat it as a celebration this time, and I won't care about it."
In 2003, the Internet was not as developed as it will be in the future, and people's entertainment methods were not as rich. Magazines such as "Reader" and "Yilin" were very popular with everyone.
Likewise, Chicken Soup for the Soul didn’t have time to spread.
Li Jie used his spare time to write a few chicken soup articles. Not surprisingly, all of them were selected. Moreover, the articles he wrote were very popular among readers. Among them, the fee for "Reader" was slightly higher, about 150 words per thousand words, and the fee for "Ideology" was slightly higher, about 150 words per thousand words.
"Lin" is slightly lower, only 100 words per thousand words.
In the past month, Li Jie wrote a total of four articles, one article a week, and received a total of 1,000 yuan in manuscript fees, which is equivalent to doubling his monthly salary.
Of course, Li Jie wrote these manuscripts under a pseudonym, and no one else in the hospital knew about it except Wu Aike.
Walking into Wu's house carrying two big bags of things, Wu's mother saw so many things, and what she said was almost exactly the same as Wu Aike's.
"Xiao Jiang, you bought too much. We are not outsiders, so there is no need to be so polite. It's just this once, and we won't do it next time."
"Um."
Li Jie smiled and nodded without refuting.
"Not next time."
"Put your things down, Auntie will take care of them. Aike's father is waiting for you in the study. It seems he has something to ask you."
"good."
Li Jie put down the things in his hands as he was told, said hello to Wu Aike and walked towards the study.
"Here you are?" Deputy Inspector Wu raised his head and glanced at Li Jie, then stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down quickly."
Li Jie closed the door and walked quickly to the desk. As soon as he sat down and the stool was still warm, Deputy Inspector Wu said bluntly.
"Is there any latest development in the case recently?"
"Not yet." Li Jie shook his head: "Li Jianguo has been keeping an eye on me recently, and it is not convenient to do many things."
A month has passed since he picked up Ding Chunmei. Even though so much time has passed, Li Jianguo has never given up surveillance. Not only has he not given up, but he has intensified his efforts.
Because, he is going crazy!
Forced!
For a month, there was no progress in the disappearance case. Xia Liping's patience had been exhausted. The other party directly issued a death order to Li Jianguo, giving him a ten-day deadline to solve the case!
If it doesn’t work, replace it!
Li Jianguo was naturally not willing to lose the rights in his hands. In order to 'solve the case' within the deadline, he used all the means at his disposal.
Including threatening Zhu Wei and even his family!
In Li Jie's opinion, Li Jianguo was really crazy for daring to do this.
However, Zhu Wei did not back down because of this. He knew very well that Li Jianguo was just talking, and without any evidence, the other party did not dare to do so.
To threaten is one thing, but to do it is another. To take a step back, even if he dared, the people under him would not dare. After all, he is also the deputy captain of the criminal police brigade. Who dares to risk the disapproval of the world?
Do you really think you have no temper?
Do you really think the law is a letter?
Do you really think you are a local emperor?
Not to mention that you, Li Jianguo, are just a captain, even Xia Liping would not dare to persecute the family members of an employee!
After all, he still has this skin on his body. As long as he doesn't take off these clothes for a day, he won't dare to do this!
"Well, indeed."
Deputy Inspector Wu nodded in agreement, and then he took out a document bag from the drawer.
"You take a look at this first."
'coming!'
Li Jie secretly thought that this document bag was most likely the report material sent by Hou Guiping to Deputy Inspector Wu, and it contained a crucial piece of evidence.
That photo!
Although Li Jie guessed what was inside, he still made a puzzled expression.
"This is?"
Deputy Inspector Wu stretched out his hand and tapped the table: "Take a look first."
"kindness."
Li Jie quickly took out the contents in front of Deputy Inspector Wu.
As expected, the document bag contained exactly the reporting materials sent by Hou Guiping.
"Oh, I'm ashamed to say that."
While Li Jie was reading the materials, Deputy Inspector Wu revealed the secret that had been buried deep in his heart for many years with a guilty look on his face.
"Actually, I received this material as early as two years ago, and I recognized the person in the photo at a glance. At that time, Xia Liping was in the limelight, and I had just been transferred to the Qingzhou City Metropolitan Procuratorate."
"so……"
Before Deputy Inspector Wu could finish his words, Li Jie took the initiative to comfort him.
"Uncle Wu, you don't need to say anything, I understand everything, and just a report and a photo can't prove anything at all."
