Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 313: Did I delay your fishing by releasing the fish?

The day before New Year’s Eve, Guangxing City’s CBD, the commercial center.

There are many luxury cars and crowds of people downstairs of the Wanda office building.

Mo Liguo stood in the crowd, wearing a high-end brand-name suit. His hair was a little gray. In order to appear more gentlemanly, he bought a pair of glasses and put them on his face. From a distance, he really looked like a gentleman.

Xie Wanli wore a white blazer on the upper body, a red hip skirt on the lower body, and a pair of rose-colored high heels.

Both of them had smiling faces and greeted the guests.

In order to show their importance to Hongguang Capital, these people parked their cars at the edge of the venue.

Not to mention BMW and Mercedes-Benz, he also has several Lamborghinis worth several million and Rolls-Royces worth tens of millions.

The scene was filled with flowers and covered with red carpets. Chairs had been placed under the platform. A receptionist was standing aside in a red cheongsam with a smile on her face.

Xie Wanli took advantage of her free time to get close to Mo Liguo and asked softly, "Boss Mo, will Chairman Luo come today?"

Mo Liguo kept his eyes fixed on several famous movie stars backstage, with the corners of his mouth curved with a smile.

Xie Wanli felt somewhat disgusted when she saw him drooling.

Mo Liguo coughed twice and said, "No one answered the phone. He was in Qin Province yesterday and probably can't come."

Xie Wanli pointed to a short man sitting in the second row and said, "See? This old man Ma came here specifically to see him."

Mo Liguo glanced at the short man, who was like an alien, always bragging in front of him and talking nonsense with great confidence. He didn't have much good impression of this person.

He spread his hands and said, "I can't do anything about it, Mr. Xie. Since Chairman Luo... has handed the company over to us, we just need to do our best. Besides, you know his identity."

Xie Wanli sighed, and saw Mo Liguo turning his gaze to the movie star backstage again.

At this time, a tall woman in a black business suit came to Xie Wanli and greeted her, "Mr. Xie, congratulations, congratulations."

"Congratulations, congratulations." Xie Wanli turned sideways and smiled at the woman beside her. "Boss Ye, please take care of me in the future."

While speaking, Xie Wanli unconsciously stood up straight and puffed out her chest. The other person was a few centimeters taller than her and had a proud figure. Although he was wearing a professional suit, the white shirt underneath was really billowy.

Mo Liguo also took a glance and felt a burning sensation in his heart, and the row of buttons on his shirt was about to break.

Ye Mei's eyes flashed with contempt, and she chuckled, "No, we at Sanli Films will need your support from Hongguang Capital in the future. Look, the artists in my company all said that this commercial performance is the most cost-effective. There is no need to run around, we can just go downstairs and finish the work."

Mo Liguo coughed twice and said, "Boss Ye, please rest assured. We are willing to invest in the two films your company is preparing, but we can only make a decision after our board of directors has finished their meeting."

Hearing this, Ye Mei's attitude suddenly improved, and she intentionally leaned closer to Mo Liguo: "Okay, I'll wait for good news from President Mo and President Xie. If the cooperation can be achieved, I will definitely ask the company's female artists to help you two out."

Mo Liguo's face turned red, his heart was in turmoil, and just as he was about to reach out his hand to shake hands with the other party, a figure suddenly blocked his way.

"Hello, Mr. Ye, I'm Mo Wanqiu. My dad's hands are dirty, so just thank me."

Ye Mei frowned at the sudden appearance of a person. She took a closer look and found that the other person was dressed very ordinary, just a white down jacket, blue jeans on his slender lower body, and a rivet bag slung across his body.

But upon closer inspection, this girl has a great figure and a very delicate face, which is inferior to the female artists in her own company.

The other person raised his eyebrows, smiled slightly, and stared at him with some amusement.

Ye Mei's heart trembled, and she smiled and said, "Are you Mr. Mo's daughter? Nice to meet you."

She thought that this girl must be taking advantage of her. After all, the rich second generation in the inland, both men and women, generally did not receive a good education, and bullying was a common occurrence.

But who knew that Mo Wanqiu suddenly held her hand and playfully scratched the palm of Ye Mei's hand with her little finger.

"Miss Ye is so beautiful and has such a great figure. If you are free, can we find some time to have a drink?"

Ye Mei didn't expect the other party to be so frivolous and have such unusual hobbies, so she quickly retracted her hand.

I wanted to wipe it on my pants, but didn't do it out of politeness.

“Miss Mo, if you are elegant, would the female artists in my company accompany you for a drink?”

Mo Wanqiu smiled, eyes dancing with joy, "One is not enough, at least find me two, I already have a boyfriend."

Ye Mei's heart skipped a beat. This is really...

Mo Liguo's face immediately darkened. He felt guilty and naturally didn't dare to say anything more.

Xie Wanli knew the relationship between Mo Wanqiu and Luo Rui, and she also knew that although this girl acted silly, she was actually extremely smart.

From the beginning when Hongguang Capital was being prepared, Luo Rui did not take care of things and left it to Mo Liguo to manage. Mo Liguo was just a car dealer before and had only a superficial understanding of investment companies. He needed to consult Luo Rui about many things, but Mo Wanqiu often gave Mo Liguo advice in private.

Not to mention, the company's newly hired financial and legal advisor Jiang Zhong often goes to the beach villa. All of them go to see Mo Wanqiu.

Although Xie Wanli hired the financial talents that the company hired from various major companies with high salaries, she thought that these people would definitely follow her lead. However, in just a few days, these people all understood who the boss of the company is and who has the final say.

Mo Wanqiu often came forward to gather these people together for team-building, and did not even invite Xie Wanli to participate. This was telling her, both secretly and openly, who the boss of Hongguang Capital was, and reminding her to put away her little thoughts.

At first, Xie Wanli still had some concerns, but after being tricked by Mo Wanqiu and considering Luo Rui's identity, she hesitated for several nights and went to Sanli Film and Television to find a few young men. After comforting herself, she suddenly realized that she'd better not cause trouble, otherwise, not to mention Luo Rui, even Mo Wanqiu would give her a good beating.

Next, the invited guests and high-profile people who came to visit the venue all arrived, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony officially began.

Mo Wanqiu stood in the middle, took the scissors handed to her by the etiquette lady, and cut the ribbon with a "click".

After that, Mo Liguo announced the official establishment of Hongguang Capital Investment Co., Ltd., and Xie Wanli gave a speech, and the audience applauded.

Xie Wanli cheered up and spoke for the company with all her heart.

She was an excellent speaker and spoke eloquently, attracting the attention of the audience.

Half an hour later, artists from Sanli Film and Television Company came on stage and sang several Cantonese songs, all of which were familiar classic songs.

Xie Wanli attracted a lot of attention and stood aside contentedly.

At this time, Ye Mei stepped on her high heels, came close to her, and whispered: "Boss Xie, is the boss behind Hongguang Capital really not here today?"

Xie Wanli wanted to talk, but when she thought of Luo Rui's identity, she chose to shut up and just shook her head gently.

Ye Mei looked towards where the guests were sitting and said, "See? Those who came here are all big shots. They all came here from the Imperial City just to meet this mysterious man.

We at Sanli Films can’t invite these big guys even if we want to, so the face they give us is already very big.”

Xie Wanli finally couldn't help but said, "Uh... I know this, but our BOSS's identity is very special, so..."

She stopped talking here because she saw several people with special identities in the crowd.

These people were wearing executive jackets and had shaky expressions on their faces. They shouldn't have been here. Whenever they showed up, it meant something big was going to happen.

Xie Wanli's eyes felt burned and she couldn't help but stare at the group of people.

Ye Mei noticed her abnormality and looked over: "This..."

She couldn't help swallowing her saliva and asked carefully, "Am I seeing things? Those people are..."

Xie Wanli quickly interrupted and said, "Don't say the name."

Ye Mei nodded immediately: "But you have to tell me, who among those people is the boss behind Hongguang Capital?"

Xie Wanli hesitated for a long time, then lowered her voice and said, "The tall guy, the youngest one, with his hands in his pockets, like a college student, is my boss."

"Him?" Ye Mei's eyes almost popped out.

Xie Wanli heard the shock in the other person's tone: "Why? Do you know him?"

Ye Mei shook her head and denied: "I don't know him, I don't know him."

As soon as she finished speaking, the other party suddenly looked over.

The man squinted his eyes and seemed a little nonchalant. Although he was standing in the crowd, he was like a wild beast in a dense forest in the dark night. His sharp eyes made people feel cold in their hearts.

Ye Mei quickly turned her eyes away, only to feel her chest swelling violently.

Xie Wanli glanced at her, curled her lips, and pushed her body forward. However, she couldn't expand her body, and her hands couldn't even be closed.

……

……

An hour later, Guangxing City, a farm house on the outskirts of the city.

There is a natural lake in this place, which is surrounded by desolate and sparsely populated. It is a good place to find peace and quiet in a bustling city.

It was here that Luo Rui let Wei Qunshan's 30-jin fish escape.

Every time Wei Qunshan talked about this, he was heartbroken. The weight would naturally be increased several times. After the increase, the fish weighed 30 kilograms.

"Old Wei, you are talking nonsense. Last time it was 10 kilograms, and in less than a year, it has become 30 kilograms. If Luo Rui becomes the captain of the detachment, your fish will probably weigh 60 kilograms."

Hu Changyu poured tea for everyone while joking.

Wei Qunshan curled his lips and said, "Old Hu, it's 30 kilograms to begin with. You have Alzheimer's disease and you keep talking nonsense."

"Hehe..." Hu Changyu didn't argue with him. He filled Zhu Yong's teacup and said, "Captain, try it. This is the new tea this year."

Zhu Yong picked up a cup and sipped his lips: "It tastes good. I have to drink Da Hong Pao in winter to nourish my stomach."

"Of course. I'll give you a box of Longjing tea in spring. This Longjing tea is picked before the rain and tastes the best every year during the Grain Rain." Zhu Yong put down his teacup and tapped him with his hand: "Old Hu, I know you better than anyone else. I never come to your temple for no reason. Since you were transferred to the provincial and municipal government, I haven't even tasted the foam of your tea. What are you talking about now?"

Hu Changyu glanced at Wei Qunshan, who also looked at Zhu Yong meaningfully. Zhu Yong gently looked towards the lake.

At this time, Luo Rui was standing by the lake, directing Nong Shan to put several baskets of large fish weighing more than ten pounds bought from the market into the lake.

Beside them, Qing Gui Chen Hao, Du Feng, Liao Kang, Kang Bolin and a group of people were sitting on small benches with two fishing rods in front of them, looking at Luo Rui's amazing operation.

"What are you looking at? Have you never seen fish released into the wild?" Luo Rui, wearing long-sleeved latex gloves on both hands, and Nong Shan bent over, lifted a basket of more than ten pounds of black carp and carefully poured it into the lake.

Du Feng licked his lips and said, "Luo Rui, this is boring. We are fishing in the wild. Do you understand what wild fishing means? You are making it very difficult for us."

Liao Kang also had a gloomy face: "Yes, wild fishing is all about technique. Yours is too brutal."

Chen Hao smoked a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said with a smile: "You two are just pretending. I don't believe that you won't move the rod when the fish is hooked."

Luo Rui wiped the sweat from his forehead and stood up: "Brother Hao is right, you guys catch your fish and I release mine, and besides, I'm not releasing them for you.

If I don't let Wei Fox fish to his heart's content, he'll be jealous of me for the rest of his life. If you want to compete, bet on who can hold back from moving the rod after the float sinks."

Liao Kang smacked his lips and said, "This is too cruel. It's like a beautiful woman taking off all her clothes and not letting people see her."

Du Feng sneered, "Don't tell me, Luo Rui's idea is really good. When we are in charge of arresting suspects, sometimes we will miss the big fish if we catch them too early."

Luo Rui released the last basket of fish, took off his latex gloves, and clapped his hands: "Boss Du is still ideologically conscious."

When he said this, he glanced at Kang Bolin who was sitting on the side in silence and said, "Old Kang, why are you looking so sad? Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and your old Wan hasn't been discharged from the hospital yet?"

Kang Bolin sighed and shook his head helplessly: "Director Wan has resigned."

Luo Rui raised his eyebrows. Wan Mingxia's self-confidence was frustrated and she suffered a blow, but if she resigned, she would be considered a ruthless person.

You know, if one can get a position like hers, out of a hundred people, one hundred and one will not resign, and the treatment after retirement is excellent, not to mention...right?
Luo Rui sighed in his heart. This indirectly showed that Wan Mingxia was powerless and probably felt guilty towards the two subordinates who died because of her actions.

Chen Hao patted Kang Bolin on the shoulder and said, "Think positively."

Kang Bolin took the cigarette from his ear, lit it with a lighter, took a deep breath, and said leisurely: "I don't know who will come to Linjiang City, I hope I can open up the situation.

Honestly, it's been almost two years since we took over this business from Captain Chen and Director Hu, and we've been powerless. We're already overwhelmed by the new homicide cases we face every day, let alone those old cases.

In the past, under the leadership of Captain Chen, Linjiang City's crime-solving rate was always among the top three in our province. Now, it has plummeted and is now among the last few."

Du Feng also felt the same way: "Our situation is similar to yours..."

As he spoke, he glanced at Luo Rui and said, "Fortunately, we have Luo Rui's criminal team here. We can leave the major cases to us. We have arrested criminals in the act, with complete evidence. We can just conduct a trial and hand the case over directly to the procuratorate."

A criminal in flagrante delicto is the counterpart of a criminal not in flagrante delicto. It refers to a crime that is discovered immediately while the criminal is preparing to commit a crime or committing a crime, or after the crime has been committed. It generally means that the criminal is discovered before leaving the scene.

As the leader of this group of people, Chen Hao comforted Kang Bolin, "A new official has three things to do when he takes office. After the Spring Festival, the new leader will definitely turn the tide and reorganize things."

"I hope so." Kang Bolin nodded, threw the cigarette butt in his hand under his feet and stepped on it hard.

Soon, the four people's hooks started to catch fish. Their faces were all grinning and they kept pulling the rods.

Luo Rui was getting anxious and yelled, "Old Liao, your fish weighs more than ten kilograms. Put it back into the lake. I'm leaving it for Director Wei."

"That's wishful thinking. I carry a fishing rod when I go out. All the neighbors know that I go fishing. I can't go back empty-handed. Besides, there will be no shortage of fish for the New Year's Eve dinner tomorrow night. Thank you, my sponsor! Thank you!" Liao Kang grinned and put the ten-pound black carp into the fish basket.

Kang Bolin had been looking depressed before, but at this moment, he also caught a five-jin turtle, which swept away his previous depression.

He laughed out loud: "Soft-shelled turtle is good, Luo Rui, can you put some old hens for us to catch? I'm still short of ingredients. The soft-shelled turtle and old hen will make soup, the taste is so delicious, wow..."

Luo Rui rolled his eyes, walked aside depressed, and hated these four people.

Nong Shan came up and whispered to him, "Boss, we put too many in. It hurts me to see them. How about I go find some fishing rods and we go fishing too?"

Luo Rui crossed his arms, looking at the farmhouse in the center of the lake, and answered nonchalantly: "Why should I feel bad? I provided the ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner for these four people tomorrow night. They should thank me anyway, right?"

Nongshan raised his eyebrows: "Yes."

"By the way, you hid the wild black bass we bought, right?"

Nongshan nodded: "It's in our trunk, alive and kicking."

"Row."

……

……

At this time, in the farmhouse in the center of the lake, after drinking a few cups of hot tea, Hu Changyu said in a deep voice: "Captain, let me be frank. Lao Wei and I are from Linjiang City. Looking at the current public security in Linjiang City, our hearts are also broken. As for Luo Rui, you have also watched him grow up.

He did a great job in this huge serial murder case in Shahe County. Don’t you think he did it better?…”

Zhu Yong blinked and said thoughtfully, "Old Hu, let me be honest. Actually, we have already discussed this matter at the commendation meeting.

Not only did I watch him grow up, but Director Wu did too.

But as you have seen before, in addition to his current identity, Luo Rui is also the behind-the-scenes boss of Hongguang Capital. If he doesn’t give up this layer of skin, it will be difficult to deal with it.”

Hu Changyu frowned: "Although that's the case, this company has nothing to do with Luo Rui, and he is not the legal representative."

Zhu Yong shook his head: "You can't say that. We are a disciplined force and we have clear requirements for on-duty police officers."

Wei Qunshan touched the back of his head and said, "Captain, he didn't even come on stage to cut the ribbon. If we are to be serious, this company has nothing to do with him."

Zhu Yong did not give in: "If it really has nothing to do with him, then where did the villa he lives in, the luxury car he drives, and the money in his bank card come from?"

Wei Qunshan said cautiously: "If that's the case, then he just found a rich girlfriend and father-in-law, and the two haven't married yet. His expenses are all provided by his girlfriend. Isn't that right?"

Hearing this, Zhu Yong sneered: "Old Wei, Luo Rui privately calls you an old fox, and he is really right."

Wei Qunshan's face immediately turned cold: "Oh, he really called me that, this bastard!"

"Stop pretending. Tell me, where do you want him to go?"

Hu Changyu and Wei Qunshan looked at each other. The former dipped his fingers in the tea and wrote three words on the table.

Zhu Yong took a look and thought, as expected, he nodded: "I said, you two are doing this for his own good, I understand, this kid has the ability, I also want him to move up, but we may be harming him.

Hey... about this... tomorrow is New Year's Eve, ask him to go meet some people and get to know the place tonight."

"That's great. You guys do it first. I'll go prepare a snack for tomorrow night." Seeing that everything had been discussed, Wei Qunshan picked up the fishing gear and ran to the lake impatiently.

Seeing several people pulling the poles non-stop by the lake, he ran while shouting, "Hey you... Du Feng, get out of here. Why are you sitting on my little bench? You guys have taken away all the holes I made earlier. Get out of the way now."

……

……

That night, Luo Rui parked his car in front of the gate of the compound, feeling uneasy.

Looking inside from the door, the yard was full of trees with layers of branches and leaves, and no buildings could be seen at all.

From time to time, you can hear the clear chirping of birds. In the middle of winter, I don’t know where these birds come from.

You must swipe your card at the gate to enter. If you are not the owner of the house, you must call the other party and show your ID card. Only when the person and the ID match can you enter.

Luo Rui had nothing in his hands, he just showed his ID.

Two security guards in coats took a look at him and sneered at his identity: "Who are you looking for? Call them. We can only let you in after we confirm it."

Luo Rui glanced at the people coming in and out. There were really no ordinary people here. He felt like nothing.

So he could only carefully dial the number and then hand the phone to the security captain.

The man took the phone, listened to it, and immediately stood at attention.

The security guards here are not just ordinary people from society, they are all retired veterans.

A few seconds later, the security guard returned the phone to Luo Rui and his attitude suddenly became better: "Go straight in and turn right. The leader lives in Building 301, Room ."

Luo Rui nodded: "Okay, thank you."

"You're welcome."

Luo Rui arrived in front of the building. The floor of the building was old and looked gray. There was a group of pigeons flying from the roof to the treetops nearby. He also heard the sound of whistles in his ears.

Soon, Luo Rui arrived at 301 and rang the doorbell.

He felt somewhat uneasy, silently thinking about Old Wu's position. After much thought, he could only say that the other party was several levels higher than Qi Tongwei who came later. As for his position in Luo Rui's system, it was just a part-time job.

"Who is it?" someone shouted from inside.

Luo Rui quickly cleared his throat, and just as he was about to speak, the door was suddenly opened.

He opened his eyes wide and looked inside the door. Lin Chen was holding a spatula in her hand and wearing a pink apron with Hello Kitty printed on it. She stared at him in confusion.
Luo Rui's smile froze on his face. He was startled and said, "Happy New Year. I... I'm looking for Wu..."

Lin Chen reacted immediately. She smiled, moved aside, and waved the spatula into the house: "Dad, my boss wants to see you!"
