Rebirth 1978, Wife, I won't go back to the city

In the center of the desk was a framed black-and-white photo of two young people standing side by side with bright smiles.

Liu Yuan guessed that this should be a photo of Director Qi and his brother when they were children.

In addition, there were some papers and pens scattered on the desk, as well as a few books that looked like they had been read many times.

Liu Yuan retracted his gaze and turned to look at Director Qi, asking casually as if chatting, "By the way, Director Qi, where is your wife? Why isn't she home?"

Upon hearing this question, Director Qi's originally calm face instantly flashed with embarrassment. He scratched his head, chuckled twice, and replied, "I... I've always been single, how could I possibly have a wife?"

Liu Yuan's eyes widened upon hearing this, and he asked in surprise, "No way? Director Qi, you're a small leader in the Water Conservancy Bureau after all. How come you don't even have a wife?"

Upon hearing this, Director Qi's face darkened, his brows furrowed slightly, and he retorted unhappily, "Hey! Why are you so bad at talking? What does my job have to do with whether I have a wife? Besides, love isn't something you can buy just by relying on your position. If you think there's nothing more to see, then get out of here!"

Seeing that Director Qi was really angry, Liu Yuan secretly said in his heart, "Oh no! I'm so sorry, Director Qi. It's my fault for not speaking well and not thinking before I speak. Please don't take it to heart!"

As he spoke, Liu Yuan casually stretched out his hand and gently pulled open the door of Director Qi's heavy wardrobe.

However, disappointingly, there was nothing in the closet except a few pieces of clothing.

At this moment, Director Qi, who had been standing by and watching Liu Yuan's every move, showed a hint of displeasure on his face. His brows slightly furrowed, and he said impatiently, "Are you done looking? If you are, then hurry up and leave. Don't dawdle here and disturb my rest!"

Hearing Director Qi's words, Liu Yuan just shrugged indifferently, as if he didn't care about Director Qi's dissatisfaction at all.

Then, he turned and walked quickly out of Director Qi's house. The small house was small and simple in layout, and one could almost see the whole thing at a glance.

Not only that, no signs of a fight were found in the house. Obviously, it was unlikely that Director Liu disappeared here.

After leaving Director Qi's house, Liu Yuan did not dare to delay at all. He immediately rode his bicycle back to the police station at lightning speed.

As soon as he entered the station, he frantically found a colleague and urgently ordered, "Quick, get someone to investigate carefully near Qi Hao's house to see if anyone has seen Director Liu!"

The colleague looked at Liu Yuan helplessly and couldn't help complaining: "Brother, you just came back from there, why don't you check it out yourself?"

Facing his colleague's questioning, Liu Yuan hurriedly sorted through the documents in his hands and replied without looking up, "I have to go borrow something important from somewhere else. This matter cannot be delayed any longer. Remember, you must send someone over to investigate thoroughly as soon as possible. There must not be any delay!"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Yuan left the police station in a hurry.

Before he knew it, it was already past nine o'clock, but Li Jingshen was sitting leisurely alone at home.

Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door broke the silence of the night.

Li Jingshen stood up and walked to the door, only to see Liu Yuan standing outside, sweating and panting.

"Oh, what brings you, a rare guest, here today?" Li Jingshen opened the door and teased with a look of surprise on his face.

Liu Yuan is indeed a rare guest among rare guests. Although the relationship between him and Li Jingshen is quite good, due to the special nature of Liu Yuan's work, he rarely comes to Li Jingshen on weekdays.

When Li Jingshen saw Liu Yuan appear in front of him, he was really surprised.

However, before Li Jingshen could even exchange a few pleasantries, Liu Yuan bluntly said, "Jingshen, I want to discuss something with you. I heard that you have a wolf pup at home. Can you lend it to me for a while?"

Hearing this, Li Jingshen was stunned. He had never expected that Liu Yuan came all the way here just to borrow his dog.

Originally, he was looking forward to whether there would be new clues or progress in Chen Fang's case.

"Borrow a dog? What are you going to do with the dog?" Li Jingshen asked with a puzzled look on his face, his mind still a little confused for a moment.

Liu Yuan replied anxiously, "Go find Director Liu! Director Liu disappeared last night!"

"What? Who did you say is missing? How is this possible!?" Li Jingshen widened his eyes and shouted in disbelief.

You know, no matter how chaotic Maolin is, no one would dare to attack Director Liu!

Could real life be as outrageous as in the movies?

Liu Yuan was also helpless at this moment. He explained with a wry smile, "I know this sounds ridiculous, but it's the truth. Director Liu really disappeared inexplicably."

"I heard that the wolfhounds you raised are not only smart but also very capable, so I wanted to borrow them. As soon as I find Director Liu, I promise to return the dogs to you immediately."

Li Jingshen asked suspiciously, "Don't your public security agencies have professional police dogs?"

Liu Yuan smiled bitterly and replied helplessly, "There are only a limited number of police dogs. How can a regular grassroots police station like ours easily equip them? Even if we want to use a police dog for a mission, we have to submit an application to our superiors first. By the time that application is approved, I'm afraid Director Liu will have already met with an accident."

Hearing that Director Liu might be in danger, Li Jingshen felt a tightness in his heart. After all, they all knew each other, and it was only right that he should lend a helping hand and do his part.

So, he said without hesitation: "Alright, these wolf gangs under my command are quite obedient and will follow my orders. I can go with you to help with the search."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yuan's face lit up with joy, and he quickly responded, "That's great! To be honest, I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to command Dahei and the others. Now that you've personally stepped forward to help, I'm truly thankful!"

Due to the urgency of the situation, the tight time schedule and the arduous task, Li Jingshen hurriedly gave Jiang Xue a few brief instructions, then called up Dahei, who was guarding the pig farm, and several other wolves to prepare to set off immediately.
