Qi Tongwei: Can I be young again?

Qi Tongwei and Zhao Donglai were both extremely troubled by Yan Wang's matter.

"Brother Qi, you really did your best. That bald guy is really stubborn. He only admitted to raping Wu Zhenzhen, and he won't say anything else."

"Even the Great Memory Restoration Technique is useless?"

"It's no use! This isn't the first time the bald guy has been to the police station, he knows our procedures very well! He keeps avoiding the important issues and keeps making a fuss about seeing a lawyer, so we don't dare to be too forceful."

Qi Tongwei had seen many stubborn suspects.

Generally speaking, they are either repeat offenders who are familiar with the interrogation process, or they have powerful connections and are therefore fearless.

Bald guy Yan has both.

To interrogate this kind of person, you need patience and skill.

After thinking it over, Qi Tongwei decided to go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau in person and then use his unique method...

Just then, the office door was pushed open.

Li Dakang, Zhao Ruilong, Pei Jing... the three of them walked in one after another.

Before Qi Tongwei could speak, Pei Jing took out a banner and smiled brightly, "County Chief Qi, where do you think this banner should be hung?"

"What do you mean?" Qi Tongwei stood up, looking at her warily. "This banner is for me?"

“Of course it’s for you!” Pei Jing said sweetly, “County Chief Qi, Ruilong and I may have had some misunderstandings with you before. We came here specifically to apologize to you. We hope you will be magnanimous and not hold it against us.”

Qi Tongwei was momentarily stunned.

What is this?

Is the weasel giving New Year greetings to the chicken?

Seeing that Qi Tongwei remained silent, Pei Jing winked playfully and spoke again: "County Chief Qi, actually, I also graduated from Handong University, only one year younger than you. I noticed you back in school. I can't believe it's only been a few years and you're already the county chief! Time flies!"

This is the truth.

Qi Tongwei had met Pei Jing before when they were in school.

Back then, Pei Jing always wore a clean school uniform and shoes that were washed until they were almost white. She might not be considered the school beauty, but she had still made many people's hearts flutter.

Chen Hai was one of them.

Even after graduation, when Chen Hai talked about the girl he liked, Pei Jing was still his role model.

However, Qi Tongwei had no feelings for her.

To put it simply, in Qi Tongwei's eyes, girls are only divided into two types...

Zhong Xiaoai and the other girls.

"Ahem." Qi Tongwei coughed twice, not taking the banner, but turning to Zhao Ruilong, "Young Master Zhao, did you come here just to present this banner?"

"It's just to present a banner, nothing else." Zhao Ruilong said with utmost sincerity, "County Chief Qi, to be honest, I really admire you, and I'm presenting this banner from the bottom of my heart. Please accept it."

"What do you admire about me?"

"You've got guts!" Zhao Ruilong gave a thumbs up. "Don't think that just because Zhao Ruihu and I are cousins, we've never gotten along since we were kids. It's not that we have any other grudges, it's just that this guy always likes to use my dad's name to do bad things and ruin my family's reputation. Take this paper mill for example, he was clearly at fault, but he just wouldn't admit it and even called my dad to ask him to bail him out."

"Who to fish for?"

"That's the rapist, the bald guy, I think his name is Yan Wang!" Zhao Ruilong said righteously, "County Chief Qi, my father is an upright man. As soon as he heard Zhao Ruihu's nonsense, he immediately scolded him and said that our family has nothing to do with him anymore! If you want to deal with him, then go ahead and do it. Our Zhao family will back you up!"

"Your Zhao family is backing me up so you can go and deal with your cousin?" Qi Tongwei wanted to laugh.

“That’s right!” Zhao Ruilong said seriously, “I know my cousin better than anyone else what kind of person he is. I’ve heard about all the bad things he’s done. Take Baldy for example, if Zhao Ruihu hadn’t been so indulgent, would he have dared to rape the girls in the village? He’s worse than an animal!”

Mentioning the bald man, Qi Tongwei frowned slightly. "So, according to you, everything Yan Wang did was inextricably linked to Zhao Ruihu?"

"Absolutely! That bald guy is nothing, he's just a thug at best! What can he do if Zhao Ruihu doesn't give the order? He can't do anything."

Sensing something amiss, Zhao Donglai, who had been silent all along, interjected, "But Yan Wang refuses to say anything at our municipal bureau!"

Zhao Ruilong scoffed, "Of course he won't tell. If he did, his wife and children would suffer."

"That's quite an exaggeration?" Zhao Donglai asked, somewhat surprised. "Aren't they one of our own?"

"Fellow countrymen my ass! My cousin is ruthless and has done all sorts of bad things! In my opinion, Handong will never allow such a bad person to exist."

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Ruilong suggested, "Don't be afraid, I know that bald guy. I'll go to the city police station and talk to him. I guarantee he'll confess everything!"

"Really?" Zhao Donglai was overjoyed.

"Of course it's true. As a citizen with a sense of justice, I will never allow Zhao Ruihu to get away with it."

Qi Tongwei understood.

Zhao Ruilong is willing to sacrifice his own family for the greater good!

But why did he do that?

Is it just an attempt to distance themselves from the situation?

Isn't this a bit too perfunctory?

Just then, Zhao Donglai nudged Qi Tongwei with his elbow and said, "Since Mr. Zhao Ruilong is willing to help us solve the case, I will take him to the Municipal Bureau. As long as Yan Wang speaks up, we will immediately begin to arrest Zhao Ruihu."

Qi Tongwei did not immediately agree.

how to say.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Ruilong, he was certain that this matter was not so simple.

But what makes it complicated?

I really don't have a clue right now.

"Alright!" In the end, Qi Tongwei nodded. "Donglai, do as you say. As long as Yan Wang explains things clearly, immediately transfer people from the Municipal Bureau. Don't let Zhao Ruihu escape from Jinshan County."

"understand!"

Without further ado, after saying goodbye, Zhao Donglai led Zhao Ruilong away first.

They left, and Li Dakang didn't linger either, turning to deal with the work that had piled up over the past few days.

Only Qi Tongwei and Pei Jing remained in the office.

“County Chief Qi, everyone has left, so I’m leaving too. I’ll leave this banner to you.”

Qi Tongwei accepted the banner without saying a word.

Pei Jing smoothed her hair and chuckled, "County Chief Qi, you haven't changed at all over the years. You still have a slightly dull look in your sunny disposition. Back then... you were the heartthrob of all of us junior girls!"

Qi Tongwei remained silent.

He simply waved his hand dismissively, signaling Pei Jing to leave quickly.

The ZY inspection team is coming in two days. If Xiao Ai comes to visit the set beforehand and sees a girl like this, then it'll be hard to explain...

(Thank you to everyone for the flowers, love, and likes... and thank you to Chunshu for the razor blades.)

(May Day holiday is almost over, everyone, remember to keep having fun!)

(...If you have time, please give me a good review. I hope to get the rating to 7.0 before the 20-word test...I am extremely grateful to everyone.)

Chapter Seventy-Six: Sweet or Salty, But Only One-Sided

After Pei Jing left, Qi Tongwei leaned back in his chair, lit a cigarette, and began to silently plot.

He didn't believe Zhao Ruilong was a good person.

They didn't believe he would cooperate with the police in solving the case, unless... there was something in it for him.

What are the benefits?

Was he happy to arrest Zhao Ruihu? Or did he have a personal grudge against Zhao Ruihu?

It doesn't seem that bad.

If Zhao Ruilong is the crown prince, then Zhao Ruihu is only one direct relative. The crown prince has no reason to argue with direct relatives!

Just as I was lost in thought, the phone rang.

Qi Tongwei forced a smile.

"Xiao Ai, what's wrong?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to let you know that I'll be heading to Handong ahead of time tomorrow."

"So fast?"

"Yes, something urgent came up, so I have to come over now. The ZY inspection team won't arrive until the day after tomorrow."

"What's the urgent matter? Is it convenient to talk about it?"

"Um...it's inconvenient." Zhong Xiaoai hesitated for a moment, then said softly, "Tongwei, I came here early this time because of ZY's arrangement. The matter I need to take care of also needs to be kept secret. However, after I finish taking care of the matter, I'd like to squeeze out some time to come see you."

"it is good."

"What? Are you angry?"

"I'm not that petty."

"It's good that you're not angry. Then it's settled. I'll make time to come to Yantai City to see you the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, call me when you get off the bus, and I'll come pick you up."
