Xue Ming drove Truck No. 2 and brought Li Lihai and Zhou Jianhong to the department store and parked the truck at the gate.

Li Lihai bought brown sugar on the first floor, and Zhou Jianhong went to the second floor to buy eggs.

The two of them didn't allow Xue Ming to buy gifts, but only allowed Xue Ming to drive for them.

In their opinion, Xue Ming and Qian Dahan were not friends, but had some unpleasantness.

Xue Ming walked to the candy section and found that his mother was not at the counter, so he asked the salesperson next to him: "Uncle Wang, where is my mother?"

"Oh, it's Xue Ming." Wang Huilin was packing fruit candies for a customer while chatting with Xue Ming: "Sister Liu should be going to the toilet, wait for her."

"Okay, I don't have anything to do anyway." Xue Ming said with a smile.

Suddenly he discovered that Wang Huilin's middle finger on his left hand was also missing the first knuckle, exactly the same as Qian Dahan's.

At this time, two young men came to the counter.

One of them had a long face and was named Lin Tao. He was a policeman from the provincial public security bureau and Xue Ming knew him.

Lin Tao glanced at Xue Ming out of the corner of his eye, took out his ID and handed it to Wang Huilin: "Comrade salesman, I have something I want to ask you for help."

When Wang Huilin saw the ID, the smile on his face disappeared immediately. He was stunned for two seconds, nodded, and returned the ID to Lin Tao.

He turned around and said to his colleague next to him: "Xiao Ma, please help me. I have something to do at home."

"Okay, Brother Wang, go and get busy." Xiao Ma didn't notice Wang Huilin's nervousness and thought it was just a normal social interaction.

Across from the fruit counter, Zhou Jianhong walked up to Xue Ming carrying eggs and said, "We've bought the eggs. Let's go."

At this time, Li Lihai also came upstairs and raised the brown sugar in his hand: "Have you bought everything? Let's go now."

The three of them went downstairs together. Xue Ming started the car with the crank and drove to Qian Dahan's house under Zhou Jianhong's command.

In the Qian family's yard, two boys about 5 years old were playing in the mud. When they saw a stranger entering the house, they hurried to the main room to tell their mother.

When Qian Dahuan's wife saw Zhou Jianhong, tears immediately flowed down her cheeks: "Brother Zhou, Dahuan is in the room."

"Don't cry, sister-in-law, Dahuan is okay." Zhou Jianhong immediately introduced Xue Ming and Li Lihai.

The three of them came into the house, and Qian Dahuan forced out a smile that was uglier than crying: "Brother Li, Lao Zhou, Brother Xue, you are here."

"Old Qian, don't be too excited. You must take good care of your injuries." Li Lihai sat opposite him and patted his shoulder gently.

Zhou Jianhong put the eggs and brown sugar on the table and said, "Old Qian, you are too careless. How could you cut your hand while chopping wood?"

"It's all my fault." Qian Dahuan's smile became even uglier. He turned to look at Li Lili and said, "It affected the progress of the project. I'm sorry, Brother Li."

"Don't say that." Li Lihai waved his hand and said, "Old Zhou has arranged for someone to temporarily take over your job. When you recover from your injury, report to me at the construction site immediately."

Xue Ming took out a cigarette from his pocket. Qian Dahan was stunned for a moment and put the cigarette in his mouth with his right hand.

"If it's a blessing, it's not a disaster. If it's a disaster, it's inevitable. Brother Qian, don't worry too much." Xue Ming fueled him.

As he spoke, he took out a box of white medicine from his bag and placed it on the table: "This medicine is specially used to treat wound inflammation."

This brand of Baiyao is very expensive. Qian Dahan wanted to buy it but couldn't afford it. He stared at Xue Ming's face and sighed after a moment.

He secretly hated himself for being too impulsive. If he had not deliberately targeted Xue Ming, he would not have had a conflict with Zhou Jianhong, and there would not be the current consequences.

"Brother Xue, I was wrong about what happened before. I shouldn't target you everywhere." Qian Dahan couldn't help but sigh.

"Brother Qian, don't say that. Friction is inevitable at work. I don't take it to heart, and you shouldn't take it to heart either."

Xue Ming waved his hands and thought to himself, "Don't get me wrong. The job I'm talking about is the air-raid shelter, not the enemy spy."

Since they were visiting colleagues, they had to sit down and have a few words, so the four of them sat together and chatted.

At the Provincial Public Security Bureau, Pei Zhengming had a sneer on his face as he stared at the distracted Wang Huilin.

"Wang Huilin, you said you accidentally cut off your finger while cutting vegetables, right?"

"Yes, my kitchen knife was too sharp and I accidentally cut off my finger."

"you are lying."

Pei Zhengming picked up the kitchen knife with his right hand, placed his left hand on the table, and made the same motion as cutting vegetables.

Under normal circumstances, when people cut vegetables, they will hold the vegetables with four fingers of their left hand at the same time.

If a kitchen knife cuts your finger, you will either cut off half of the nail on your middle finger or injure the other three fingers at the same time.

The first joint of Wang Huilin's middle finger was cut off, but the index finger and ring finger next to it were intact, which is not normal.

Unless Wang Huilin only used his middle finger to support the vegetables when cutting them, which is obviously not normal.

"Comrade from Public Security, my wife can testify that my finger was cut off while I was cutting vegetables." Wang Huilin was a little anxious.

"Stop lying." Pei Zhengming clapped his hands and the door creaked open.

Wang Huilin turned around and saw his wife, and quickly raised his left hand: "Shufen, my finger was cut off when I was cutting vegetables, right?"

Zhang Shufen's face turned pale, she lowered her head and said nothing, her hands nervously clenching the corners of her clothes.

Pei Zhengming snorted coldly: "Just now your wife said that you were not at home on the day you broke your finger, but went to a friend's house to drink. Who was the person drinking with you that day?"

"Comrade Public Security, she must have remembered it wrong." Wang Huilin turned around and scolded his wife: "You are a donkey with no memory. My hands are just for cutting vegetables..."

"Enough!" Pei Zhengming slammed the table.

There was a loud bang, and Wang Huilin trembled with fear.

"Wang Huilin, do you think I don't know what a swearing oath is? Who is the old general?"

Pei Zhengming opened the drawer and took out four Yuan Datou coins and placed them on the table: "These Yuan coins were found in your closet. Do you recognize them?"

Wang Huilin was stunned and immediately shook his head: "Comrade Public Security, I do have a few dollars at home, but they all look the same, and I don't know if they are mine."

Pei Zhengming sneered: "Comrade Wang Huilin, you won't cry until you see the coffin."

The drawer was opened again, Pei Zhengming took out a pair of tweezers and slowly pried open a dollar.

The ocean was actually hollow, with a ball of paper hidden inside.

Pei Zheng unwrapped the paper and placed it in front of Wang Huilin: "You can read, what is written on it?"

The note read: "Yesterday I was chatting with Liu Yue'e, and she said Xue Ming was always in a daze recently, and when he was in a daze he would say the three words 'old general'."

Pei Zhengming pried open a few more dollars, and they were all hollow inside, with no notes.

"Wang Huilin, the old general is your spy chief. Tell me who the old general is."

"Comrade Public Security, I don't know what you are talking about." Wang Huilin shook his head again.

Pei Zhengming also shook his head: "Haha, let's see how long you can be so stubborn."
