Siheyuan: No One Can Be Left Behind

The man with a crew cut thought for a while and nodded in agreement. The main reason was the clues provided by Li Dongfang after he saw the crow's body last time. They actually found clues from Director Li, otherwise they would not have been able to catch the old smoker who had been lurking for so many years so quickly. Moreover, this guy was a diehard and had said nothing since he was caught. They had used several methods, but there was no progress at all. They were a little headache.

In an inconspicuous courtyard without a sign, Li Dongfang met an old man codenamed Old Smoker in the interrogation room. He was so ordinary, so ordinary that he could be just a farmer seen everywhere, squatting on the side of the road with a pipe in his hand.

The old smoker, whose hands and feet were handcuffed to a special chair, looked very depressed, but his eyes were still determined. Even Li Dongfang could see that this was a tough nut to crack, but he had a hole in his chest, and once he saw his secrets, they would no longer be secrets.

Wow! Li Dongfang exclaimed, "Wow!" He was impressed by the power of the system and the fact that this unprepossessing old smoker was not an ordinary person.

"Name." Someone was doing the interrogation, and Li Dongfang was just a bystander.

The old smoker said nothing and looked down at his hands.

Li Dongfang felt that the interrogator was too serious, so he took out a cigarette, lit it, and blew into the old pipe.

The nickname "old smoker" was not given for nothing. He smelled the smoke and took a deep breath, his face full of intoxication.

Li Dongfang saw it and said, "Look how uncomfortable it is to stand like this. How about you answer a question and I'll give you a cigarette?"

The old smoker looked up at Li Dongfang when he heard this, then lowered his head again to continue looking at his black nails.

"Oh! Why are you so ignorant? Just give a casual answer, even if it's nonsense, it will be better for you and us, and everyone will be happy." Li Dongfang said dissatisfiedly.

The old smoker took another look at the Zhonghua bottle that Li Dongfang had placed on the table and asked, "Really?"

Li Dongfang nodded.

The old smoker hesitated for a moment and said, "Sun Aiguo."

Li Dongfang smiled and handed him a cigarette, and lit it for him considerately, saying, "Look, this is great, even though you're lying, I'm curious. You even lied about your last name, so do you think your ancestor's coffin can hold it down?"

The old smoker took a deep puff of his cigarette and ignored Li Dongfang.

Li Dongfang didn't care about his reaction and continued: "Let me guess, I think your last name should be Qian... Haha, it seems that I guessed right." Li Dongfang saw a gleam of light in the old smoker's eyes.

"Qian...Jie...Min?"

"You... who are you, you..." The old smoker was no longer as calm as before, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Li Dongfang smiled and said, "I said I can read minds, do you believe it? If you don't, why don't you answer me again, what is your identity? See if I can guess it right again."

"I...I am just an ordinary person in Sijiu City."

Li Dongfang didn't care what he said at all, he saw it all clearly anyway. Asking him to speak was just an excuse. The information was analyzed. As for whether the man with the crew cut believed it or not, he didn't care. Anyway, the information was given to him, and no matter how useless he was, he would be able to find out something.

"Leader of the First Group of the 49th City Special Operations Team? I didn't realize you were so powerful."

"Are you still coming? Shall we continue the Q&A?"

"no, do not want."

"Very good, isn't it nice to not answer? What orders did Wu Xi, the head of the Security Bureau's Sijiucheng Liaison Station, pass on to you?!"

"I...no...no, don't talk nonsense. I don't know any Wu Xichuan. I don't know anything. Don't ask me!" The old smoker yelled as if he had seen a ghost.

"Oh, okay, I already know. There will be a major operation at 52 Ciqikou East Street at 12 noon today? All the middle-level staff of the liaison station need to go there to receive the order?!"

"No... Impossible... Impossible... How did you know? Impossible... You absolutely cannot know who you are!"

Li Dongfang shrugged and said, "Thank you for your cooperation. Don't you know who I am? Here, I'll give you the remaining cigarettes. Take your time smoking them."

"You...you are Li Dongfang? How is it possible... How is it possible! I don't believe it..."

Li Dongfang did not waste any more time and opened the door and walked out, leaving behind only the crazy old smoker and the dazed recorder.

Li Dongfang returned to the office and sat down on the sofa. He said to the man with the crew cut, "I heard you. If you let them run away again, I'll see how you'll explain this to your leader."

The man with the crew cut said with a strange look on his face: "If you were not innocent or were the target, I would have suspected that you were in cahoots with them."

Li Dongfang's face twitched, and he rolled his eyes at him fiercely and said, "I will wait here for you to solve your problems before I leave. You don't have to worry about me. Go and arrange your work."

The crew-haired man did not leave. Instead, he sat down steadily and said, "It has been arranged. I just want to know how you know this information. Is it really the micro-expression analysis and psychology you mentioned?"

Li Dongfang lay down on the sofa and said, "If you want to know, go study it yourself. I got up early this morning, so I'll take a nap. Call me when you eat."

After saying that, she closed her eyes and ignored what the guy with the crew cut said. After a while, she actually fell asleep.

Li Dongfang didn't know how long he slept, but he was woken up by the noise. Hearing the noisy and cheerful voices in the corridor outside, Li Dongfang opened the door and saw the man with a crew cut coming towards him with a smile.

"Li Dongfang, you are amazing. The news turned out to be true. This time we have basically caught them all in one fell swoop."

Li Dongfang immediately grasped the key point of his words, frowned and asked: "Basically? Someone ran away?"

"Well, two small characters ran away, and the main characters were either caught or shot dead." The man with a crew cut showed an embarrassed look for the first time.

Li Dongfang grimaced in pain, and said with a look of disappointment: "You...you...you actually let someone escape. With such detailed information, you let him escape. The little person you mentioned can take my life!!!"

"I will report this to my superiors and have them send someone to protect you," the crew-haired man assured.

"What kind of protection? Do you know when they will take action? How long can you protect me? I'm so pissed!" Li Dongfang pushed the man with a crew cut away and walked out.

Li Dongfang walked to the gate of the compound angrily, and suddenly slapped his head. He turned back to the office and found the man with the crew cut and asked, "I want to ask you something. Director Li from the steel mill will not bring trouble to his family, right?"

The crew-haired man was stunned at first, then he figured it out and said, "It's hard to say. I know you have a good relationship with Minister Wang's two daughters, but he will definitely be implicated this time, even if he has no idea about it."
