Gao Chongjiu said: "Li Ziyu from the Public Security Department turns out to be a patrol officer in that area. He is familiar with the area and the situation of the person involved. Let him go on an errand with me."
Wu Xiang nodded: "Okay, but he will have another use soon. He will work with you for a day or two at most."
"One or two days will be enough." Gao Chongjiu seemed very confident.
Wu Xiang called Li Ziyu over: "Xiao Li, since you are familiar with the situation of the person involved, I have decided that you and Lao Gao will handle it."
Gao Chongjiu came out and gave the report receipt to Zeng Juan: "You are lucky, we have opened a case for you. We will dispatch the police to handle it right away!"
Zeng Juan knelt down with a pop and cried: "Thank you so much for your great kindness. Sister Quanxia Youzhi will definitely bless these gentlemen to live a long life."
Gao Chongjiu sounded a little perplexed and quickly waved to Li Ziyu to get him up: "Get up quickly, Da Song... ah... I don't like this. The case of missing children is all about time. Let's find it quickly.
The greater the chance.”
When Gao Chongjiu came out of the police station, he did not go to Zeng Juan's brother-in-law's teahouse. He first went to a teahouse diagonally opposite the city hall and whispered a few words to the waiter.
The teahouse at the gate of the county government office was usually the place where people from the government gathered to do business. Now, even though the government office has been changed to the city government, Gao Chongjiu’s old connections are still active here. If he continues to speak, it won’t take long for him to
There is news coming.
After leaving the teahouse, Gao Chongjiu said to Li Ziyu: "There will probably be an answer tomorrow night. Let your little brother rest assured."
Li Ziyu was very excited. He had not had much contact with Gao Chongjiu, but he didn't expect him to be such an enthusiastic person. He quickly complimented him and said that he would invite him to "drink tea" when he was free.
Gao Chongjiu intended to win over him, and then he said a few polite words.
A group of people arrived at Wanshenglu Tea House. In the morning, the tea house’s business was busiest. There were piles of used steamers at the door, and there were shouts and shouts in the hall. It looked lively and prosperous.
Gao Chongjiu led Li Ziyu into the tea house in a swaggering manner. He stopped immediately and coughed first.
The sharp-eyed Qitang had already seen the police coming in and rushed to greet him. When he saw that he was an acquaintance, he quickly greeted:
"Master Jiu! It's you. It's been a long time since I took care of the business of the shop. Are you having tea today or running an errand? Let me find you a seat first and serve you a pot of herbal tea?"
Gao Chongjiu didn't look at Qitang, he snorted with a smile and said: "Is your boss here?"
"Here! Here!" He didn't sit down in the hall and didn't reply. Then he looked at Li Ziyu and Zeng Juan who were standing next to him. They were both acquaintances. Knowing that something was wrong, he quickly said, "I'll call him right now. You
Sit here..."
"No need," Gao Chongjiu said, "I'm here to do business today. I'll ask your boss and his wife to come out, ask a few words and then leave." After that, he still stood in the center of the store.
It doesn't matter if he stops like this, the tea guests in the tea house are generally not happy to see a "police" around, let alone that the chap is not here to drink tea, so no one outside who wants to come in will be able to come in.
, who originally wanted to drink a few more rounds, just checked out and left. The boss and his wife who rushed out in a hurry complained secretly.
Zeng Juan's brother-in-law was named Cao, and he knew Gao Chongjiu - this kind of "upright" fast-class yamen officer usually traveled around the city and knew people very well, and the people who opened the tea house had to interact with each other in order to be able to
During normal business operations, the police officers would do their best to deal with the situation.
In Boss Cao's memories, although he and Gao Chongjiu had no special relationship, they had not offended him and everyone was on good terms.
Seeing Zeng Juan next to Gao Chongjiu, his face suddenly elongated - this little brat! Boss Cao cursed secretly, and when he saw there was Li Ziyu, he secretly shouted bad luck! This Li Ziyu, he
I recognize him. He and his former brother-in-law often came to the tea house to eat and drink together. Unexpectedly, he has become a businessman now!
Needless to say, these two "Australian agents" were instigated by Zeng Juan, a little bastard, and came here to cause trouble for themselves! Thinking of this, Boss Cao couldn't help but tighten his anus, and hurriedly greeted him with a charming smile on his face:
"Oh! It's Mr. Jiu! You are such a rare visitor! Come on, come on, sit here, my wife, and make some tea for the two gentlemen!"
Gao Chongjiu said unceremoniously: "No need, you are the boss?"
"You are such a noble person and forget things so much..."
"Don't do this! I'm on an errand," Gao Chongjiu glared, "Handling a case!"
"Yes, yes," Boss Cao complained in his heart, "The younger one is the boss."
"What is your name?"
"Cao Xueguan."
"where's your wife?"
"Come here, come here!" Boss Cao nodded and bowed.
Mrs. Huang, the mother-in-law of Zeng Juan's ex-brother-in-law, brought two bowls of tea over, raised them high, and greeted warmly: "Hey, you two officials, please have a sip of tea. You are out on official business in this hot day.
Thanks for your hard work."
Zeng Juan gritted his teeth with hatred when he saw the flattering look of this evil woman, wishing that she would just go up to her and act like a coward. However, when he saw that this "dog man and woman" could only helplessly flatter him, he secretly felt happy and became more determined.
You must be determined to pass the civil service examination.
Gao Chongjiu did not take the tea cup, but said slowly with his hands behind his back: "We are the people's police and we cannot do anything for the common people. There is no need to drink the tea. Just answer a few of our questions honestly."
"Yes, yes." Huang was a little embarrassed and had to put down the raised tray.
"Are you Mr. Cao's wife?"
"Yes, yes, I am my slave!" Although Huang was fierce and fierce, she was still afraid of official duties.
"What is your name?"
"Cao Huangshi."
"How many children do you have at home?"
"Three, ah, no, two...three." Huang was so frightened that she lost her mind and spilled the beans.
"How many are there? It's a crime to deceive the Senate..."
Boss Cao hurriedly said: "In reply to Master Jiu: three, yes three."
"All at home?"
The couple's expressions suddenly became tense. Gao Chongjiu knew that his judgment was correct. Seeing that they didn't reply, he asked again: "Are you there?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Boss Cao had no choice but to say bravely.
"Call everyone out and have a look."
"This, this," Boss Cao looked confused and couldn't help but glance at Mr. Cao Huang.
Cao Huang rushed up and said: "This poor man! What's so interesting about these clay monkeys! How old are they? What illegal things can they do?"
Gao Chongjiu said: "Even if you can't do anything illegal, what can't you do? We are also sent by the higher-ups, so don't make it difficult for us."
At this time, Boss Cao knew that these police officers were here for Ming Nu, so he kept trying to shirk them, fearing that he would not be able to fool them, so he quickly said: "The two little ones are at home. I will ask someone to bring them out to the police right away."
Look, the older one has gone to grandma’s house and is not at home.”
Gao Chongjiu snorted, nodded and said: "In that case, I'll trouble Boss Cao to send someone to bring the big one back. I've seen it in person, so I might as well go back and sell it."
"This, this, it's a long way to go, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back in a while." Boss Cao hesitated.
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I came out today just to run this errand." Gao Chongjiu didn't care, pulled up a stool and sat down, "I'll just wait here slowly." He said and called Li Zi again.
Yu said, "Come, you sit down too." He then said to Boss Cao, "There's no need to greet us here. Go and do your work. When the child comes back, we'll take a look, ask a few words and then leave."
Li Ziyu watched his whole style, making things difficult for Cao and his wife in every possible way, but yet he kept everything in check, and she couldn't help but secretly admire him. Two policemen in black uniforms sat in the middle of the store, not to mention the customers outside who didn't want to come in, but the customers inside.
He had to be driven away.
Cao Xuegang's face turned blue and white, and he didn't know what to do. He saw the tea patrons around him either getting up and leaving, or looking like they were "watching the fire from the other side" and wanted to watch the show. Cao Huang couldn't hold back her anger, she said: "Two
What kind of errand can Master Chai do? Do you have to look after a ten-year-old girl? She is not a fairy, how beautiful is she?"
"This is an errand I was ordered to do." Gao Chongjiu said, "I had to meet you. Please forgive me." He said hello: "Qitang, bring me two bowls of tea and charge my account!" He looked pleasant again.
He said, "Madam boss, we can't drink your tea - there are disciplines: don't take a needle from the masses, don't drink a sip of tea from the masses. This is what I called myself, I will settle the account later."
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Boss Cao had no choice but to say with a grimace: "Mingnu is not here..."
"Where are you not going?"
"Went to Foshan."
"You said just now that she went to grandma's house." Gao Chongjiu said.
"That's right, that's right, I'm going back to my grandma's house in Foshan."
Gao Chongjiu laughed and said: "This Ming in your family has two grandmothers. One is her direct grandmother, the father and mother of this little brother Zeng..." He pointed at Zeng Juan, "Ming's daughter is here.
Are you home yet?!"
Zeng Juan said loudly: "In reply to Master Jiu, no!"
"As for the other grandma," Gao Chongjiu said playfully, "she is the mother of your Cao Huang family. Your nickname is Huang Ping, and your natal family lives in Xiaonanmen Guanxiang. When did you have another natal family in Foshan?
?" He placed the tea cup heavily on the table and said sternly, "I advise you to be honest and tell me! Where did you do Ming Nu?!"
Gao Chongjiu's words not only exposed Cao Huang's lies to their faces, but the following sentence pointed directly at the dark ghosts in their hearts. Like a thunderbolt, Shopkeeper Cao suddenly turned pale and swayed, as if he couldn't stand.
Although Cao Huang was frightened in her heart, she still argued: "Mingnu has hands and feet, how can I control her? Maybe she went elsewhere for fun."
"So she is indeed missing?"
At this point, Cao Huang could no longer deny it and had to admit that it was indeed the case.
"When did you disappear?"
"Today...yesterday..."
Zeng Juan couldn't help but said loudly: "You are talking nonsense. I came here the day before yesterday and Mingnu has disappeared. Even if I ask this morning, her whereabouts are still unknown. Not only do you not care, you also scolded me for meddling in my own business!" (To be continued.)
