what the murderer wants to do

to my own slip of the tongue.

After all, being on drugs is no small matter.I speculate privately before there is no evidence, and if someone listens to it, I'm afraid it will cause another storm.

"Let's not talk about this now." Xiao Chao didn't want to hate Xu Xiao at first, but he couldn't change the problem for a while, so he could only change the subject awkwardly, "Chen Tiankuo, how can you say that call was made by you?"

Xu Xiao resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and smiled: "Ju Xiao thinks I ordered it?"

He is not a clay figurine, he is blocked by Xiao Chao every day, and he chokes once in a while, which seems to be a good feeling.

Hearing this, Xiao Chao didn't speak.

Although the relationship between the two has not been very good in recent years, he is very clear that at least in this matter, Xu Xiao will definitely not get involved with Chen Tiankuo.

"What do you think of this time?" Both of them walked very slowly, and the steps seemed endless, and they would never reach the end.

"Just follow Chen Tiankuo down to check." Xu Xiao pursed his lips, "As for what he mentioned... don't rush it for a while."

Hastily revisiting old accounts has no other effect except to startle the snake.

Xiao Chao nodded.

Seeing that he was approaching the second floor, he suddenly turned around.

Xu Xiao was unprepared for this, he stopped his steps and almost knocked him over.

"Do you really know nothing about the case back then?" Xiao Chao stepped back a step, and then reached out to support Xu Xiao.

He stared into the other person's eyes. Six years ago, this man was his most capable subordinate and most trusted partner.

But now, in front of the other party, what he wanted to ask had to be weighed several times before he could speak.

"What do you mean?" Xu Xiao took a step back.

"Since Qi Cheng wants to kill you." Xiao Chao wanted to ask this matter for a long time, "Why do you still help him raise the child?"

He knew that Xu Xiao had a good temper, but at the same time, he was also very clear that the words "repaying grievances with kindness" had never been associated with the other party.

☆, life and death (12)

Unexpectedly, the other party said such a sentence so suddenly, Xu Xiao was taken aback.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Xiao Chao exerted some force on his hand: "Huh?"

"What do Director Xiao think I should do?" The two were deadlocked on the stairs, Xu Xiao smiled, "Throw the child to Qi's house, don't care about anything?"

This rhetorical question is obviously suspected of diverting the topic, Xiao Chao frowned: "That's not what I asked!"

"Boss?"

When they were at loggerheads, facing the stairs, the door of the conference room opened.

Just when he opened the door, Pei Jiuchuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he saw that Xiao Chao was making trouble for his boss again.

"Let's go eat first." Xu Xiao brushed Xiao Chao's hand away, not wanting to get entangled with him, "I have to go to Chen Tiankuo's house later."

The latter sentence was addressed to the young master, Pei Jiuchuan nodded, glanced at Xiao Chao, and said nothing.

Being left on the spot, Xiao Chao withdrew his hand and stood there for a while, feeling inexplicably irritated.

In fact, he wasn't sure whether Xu Xiao knew something he didn't know, after all, since the accident that year, he had been openly and secretly against the other party.If there really was an inside story, Xu Xiao shouldn't have kept it from him, and would have found a chance to explain it to him long ago.

The thought of Xu Xiao adopting Xu Nian made Xiao Chao feel uncomfortable.

If he was only angry with Xu Xiao, then for Qi Cheng who dragged the anti-drug team into the water and almost wiped out everyone, Xiao Chao only had naked hatred.

Qi Cheng was like a thorn in his heart, after so many years, it got deeper and deeper, and every pulse tore open the old wound again, leaving a bloody wound.

Regardless of whether there is an inner ghost or not, Qi Cheng's rebellion is an indisputable fact.

"Why is he bothering you again?"

The unit cafeteria was remodeling the pipes today and there was no fire. Qu Qi and Xiao Gezi, who couldn't wait, ran outside to eat, leaving Pei Jiuchuan alone in the conference room waiting for Xu Xiao.

"Normal." Xu Xiao actually didn't have much appetite, but considering the young master, he decided to eat something, "I'd be surprised if he didn't bother me at some point."

The matter of the report letter suddenly appeared in his mind, he paused slightly, and soon returned to normal.

"I heard..." Although the boss's pause was not obvious, Pei Jiuchuan was still aware, "Did he mention Niannian?"

The sound insulation effect of the door of the conference room is so poor?Xu Xiao lowered his head, wondering if he should let the logistics come over to take a look when he comes back later.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Pei Jiuchuan waited for a while, and said by himself: "I called my brother just now, and he agreed that Niannian will live with him in the past few months."

When I was driving back to the bureau earlier, while waiting for the red light, the man suddenly said this, which startled the young master.

I was busy at the end of the year, but not to the point where I couldn't even go home.Put Nian Nian with Mu Zhenbao without any discussion, so he can't help thinking about it.

"Trouble your brother." Xu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Can I ask why?" Pei Jiuchuan was a little depressed when the first question was skipped, and the latter question got a vague answer.

The Municipal Bureau is located in the lively central area of ​​Yaojiang. During the day, there are always a lot of cars on the street, but there are not many pedestrians on the sidewalk.

The two walked side by side, only the noise from the motorway could be heard.From time to time, the high-pitched sound of the horn came, and it seemed that the sidewalk was getting quieter.

"I have a very bad feeling." After thinking about it, Xu Xiao still didn't intend to hide everything from his subordinates.

Of course, he would not mention the content of the video tape to Pei Jiuchuan: "The man who died this time has something to do with Nian Nian's biological father."

"Six years ago, I was under Xiao Chao, and I was in the anti-drug team at that time." Without waiting for the other party's response, Xu Xiao continued, "We are investigating a drug gang."

His expression was very flat, as if he was describing a life of someone else that had nothing to do with him.

As a well-developed city in the province, Yaojiang, in the idyllic night, besides the men and women who hooked their shoulders and laughed shrilly, of course, there is something else hidden.

For people who are used to pleasure-seeking, ordinary recreational activities can no longer satisfy their thrill-seeking instincts.No matter how expensive the costumes, no matter how exquisite the food, no matter how beautiful the face, after a long time, that's all.

Since these mediocre entertainments cannot bring joy, then we must find a way from other aspects.

For several months, the anti-narcotics team has caught many drug addicts in entertainment venues.From the elites in suits and leather shoes to the young middle school girls, the scope and age range involved are huge, and the proportion of drugs involved is also staggering.

The matter is of great importance, and the anti-narcotics team immediately launched an investigation.

However, apart from catching more drug addicts, the police have found nothing on the source of drugs.

There are card checks on the highways entering and exiting Yaojiang, but there is no trace of drugs.In the end, Xu Xiao and the others almost doubted whether the drugs were manufactured in Yaojiang City.

After a quarter of intensive work, there is still no progress.From top to bottom, everyone was devastated.

At this time, Qi Cheng appeared.

"He came to me first." Xu Xiao had no expression on his face. "As soon as he came up, he made it clear that he was a member of a drug gang."

Holding a strange bunch of flowers, Qi Cheng stood downstairs at Xu Xiao's house, waiting until he came home from get off work, and then stepped forward to stop him.

"Officer Xu." Qi Chengwen said, "I think I'm what you're looking for, a drug dealer."

This scene looked a little absurd, with a gentle smile on the corner of the man's mouth, he stared softly at Xu Xiao, but what he said was completely contrary to his harmless appearance.

Then, without waiting for Xu Xiao's reaction, he lifted the bouquet of flowers and separated the buds familiarly.

Although the lights downstairs were on and off, in the dim light, Xu Xiao could still clearly see the small transparent bag hidden between the flower buds.

And the familiar white powder in the bag.

"I can't go to the police station with you." Noticing that the policeman in front of him raised his hand slightly, Qi Cheng took a step back, and then rolled up his sleeves.

"But I can be your informant." He bowed his head, and the flower buds hung down with his movements.

But Xu Xiao's attention was drawn away by the man's exposed arm, and he didn't pay attention to what he said.

There is almost no intact part on the exposed arm, and with a cursory glance, one can probably judge some of the wounds.There were burns from cigarette butts, and traces of belt whips.

Bright red and dark red intertwine vertically and horizontally, which is particularly conspicuous on fair skin.

According to Qi Cheng's confession, the drug trafficking gang he belongs to has to assign tasks to the next generation after each batch of new goods is released.Those who exceed the task can get rewards, and those who fail to complete the task will end up in the same fate as Qi Cheng.

Coercion and temptation, using money to buy people's hearts, and then using means to kill chickens and monkeys to suppress people with ulterior motives.This is the leader's consistent method of employing people, and it is almost unsatisfactory.

"So...he is..." Pei Jiuchuan was speechless, "Been abused by others, and then betrayed?"

Xu Xiao asked Qi Cheng the same way.

As if knowing that the police would ask such a question, Qi Cheng lowered his head, and when he raised his eyes again, the gentle look in his eyes was even more gentle than before.

"I'm a father now." He seemed a little shy, he smiled shyly, "The child is very cute."

Such a small group, when they saw him, they would reach out and babble for him to hug, not caring what kind of person he was.

The child is not clear, but Qi Cheng understands that according to his current situation, the child raised will only be like him.

Trapped in the quagmire forever, unable to escape for a lifetime.

"I can be your undercover agent and provide you with clues." He gritted his teeth and spoke quickly, as if he was afraid that Xu Xiao would not want to listen to him. "Please take my child away, and don't let them find him."

In the next second, he directly grabbed Xu Xiao's sleeve and knelt down on the ground fiercely.

Although he has been working for several years, this is the first time Xu Xiao has encountered this kind of thing where others kneel down to him.

He subconsciously wanted to kick Qi Cheng away, but looking at the other's scarred arm, he had no choice but to contact Xiao Chao.

The cooperation between Qi Cheng and the police began at this time.

Of course Xu Xiao and the others would not completely trust Qi Cheng, but in the next few months, based on the news from the other party, the police gradually figured out the organizational structure of the drug gang.After carrying out several dens below, the two parties have established a good cooperative relationship.

In return, Qi Cheng's child was naturally let them take away.

"Nian Nian has been very good since he was a child." Thinking of his son's appearance when he was a child, Xu Xiao's expression softened, "He doesn't make trouble when he's hungry, he likes to be hugged, and he's not afraid of life at all."

Xu Xiao has never had any feelings for children, but Nian Nian is very clingy.When he was first picked up, Tiantian reached out to Xu Xiao to hug him. The number of times, Xiao Chao even teased him, wondering if this is his child.

During the contact, Qi Cheng would occasionally ask about Nian Nian's recent situation very restrainedly.Although the words were very cryptic, Xu Xiao could tell that the other party really loved the child.

His feelings towards Qi Cheng are very complicated. On the one hand, even though Qi Cheng is an informant of the police, it is still an indisputable fact that he is involved in drug trafficking.From this perspective, Xu Xiao actually doesn't like the other party very much.

But seeing Qi Cheng's attitude towards Nian Nian, he felt his heart soften again.

No matter what the father does, the child is always innocent.

With Qi Cheng as the internal response, they quickly got a clear picture of the situation of the drug gang.

After gradually tightening, the police decided to choose the right time to catch the opponent.

At this moment, something happened to Qi Cheng.

For several days, Xu Xiao failed to contact Qi Cheng.

Because Qi Cheng was the one who was looking for him at first, later, Xiao Chao assigned Xu Xiao to contact Qi Cheng.But this time, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get any news from Qi Cheng.

After an internal discussion in the anti-narcotics team, it was believed that Qi Cheng was extremely likely to be discovered and might have been killed.

The plan was temporarily put on hold, although everyone was as usual on the surface, there was no difference.But secretly, everyone is anxious.

This action is not a trivial matter, and the system attaches great importance to it.The leaders above have also asked many times. If the ship capsizes at this time, no one will feel better.

After waiting anxiously for a few days, Qi Cheng came back.
