Chapter 24

Pang Heyuan's eyes fell on his face.Before coming, he drafted a series of plans to win over this collateral descendant of the Cao family, to make sense of him, to seduce him for profit, etc. After seeing him, these plans were instantly shattered.

At the age of a teenager, his eyes are like an old fox who has been immersed in politics for decades, quiet and deep, not an easy character to play with.

Sure enough, the Cao family is prone to evildoers.

He quickly adjusted his strategy, and said with a smile: "Well, it seems that I am too late." He opened the chair and sat down, grabbed a handful of plum sugar from his pocket and sprinkled it on the table, picked up a cork into the mouth.With something in his mouth, a part of his face would protrude, and he looked less serious. He said kindly: "I have been to the planet for so long, what fun places have I been to? I know there is a place called Honghua Lake, it is really beautiful .”

The target was a child. He chatted for a while first, leaving a certain impression, and then slowly cut to the topic: "Is Lu Shuisheng your friend? What happened to him is so regrettable. Listen It is said that he plays the game console well, is very famous, and when he grows up, he may become an excellent professional gamer."

Cheng Xiu said, "Haven't the police caught the murderer yet?"

"That's why I came here. Allow me to introduce myself formally. My name is Pang Heyuan. You can call me Grandpa Pang. Of course, Uncle Pang is better. I am the guardian of this country, and I specialize in fighting bad guys."

Cheng Xiu said, "Can you tell me the specific job?"

Failed to create a brilliant image.Pang Heyuan said: "Director of the Central Intelligence Agency."

Cheng Xiu said, "Oh, then you only have the right to investigate, not to strike."

"..." It was right to change tactics early, these two little guys were smarter than what the police reported.He gave birth to a bit of the elder's love for the younger generation: "Yes. But I can find the criminal."

Cheng Xiu said, "Did you find it?"

Pang Heyuan smiled, took out a folder, pulled out a piece of paper, folded it in half, and showed them half of it—it was the lower half of a person, with clear nostrils, lips and chin.He asked, "This is the suspect you have pieced together."

Cao Yu can confirm that this half of the face is very similar to the man in the leather jacket he saw, but it is not the one he pieced together.

Pang Heyuan unfolded the other half of the paper, revealing a complete face.

With a resolute face and sharp eyes, it is a plain but masculine face.

Cao Yu asked, "Who is he?"

Pang Heyuan said: "It doesn't matter. What matters is that he did kill your friend, your friend's father and your friend's neighbor. He is a vicious murderer. If we don't catch him sooner, other innocent people will die." very dangerous."

Cao Yu said, "What do you want us to do?"

A child who is too smart will always make adults think of the word "out of control".Pang Heyuan didn't like losing control, so he quickly regained the initiative: "What do you think you can do for Lu Shuisheng?"

Cheng Xiu replied seriously: "Shangxiang."

Pang Heyuan: "..."

Well, one shouldn't expect a child to be able to give such a tall answer."I want you to identify the murderer," he said.

Cao Yu said, "We haven't seen the whole picture of the murderer."

"Based on the clues you provided, I have locked down the suspect. The alibi full of errors and omissions at the time of the incident, the unexplainable reason for the disappearance of his subordinates, and the definite motive for the murder. Although they are all indirect evidence, when combined, they are A possibility."

Cao Yu said, "Then why do we need to give false testimony?"

"It's not perjury, I'm just helping you complete your memory." Pang Heyuan said, "You can think slowly, but the suspect is likely to be acquitted while you are thinking, and the death of your friend will also become a gust of wind. There is nothing left."

After he finished speaking, he packed up the folders and got up to leave. During the process, Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu remained silent.

After he left, Cheng Xiu grabbed a plum candy and ate it, but quickly spat it out: "What a strange taste, mint-flavored plum candy! It's like pickled mothballs!"

"Have you ever eaten mothballs?"

"I imagined."

Seeing him swallowing saliva, Cao Yu leaned over to check his mouth: "Is it hard? It's a pity that there is no water here, or can I clean it for you?"

Cheng Xiu: "..." It's useless to pretend to be serious, the movement of your Adam's apple has already betrayed your wretched heart.

The fat policeman came in quickly and sent them back without saying a word.

Before parting, Cheng Xiu asked curiously, "Has this case been handed over to them?"

The fat policeman glanced at him, answered vaguely, and left.

Back at the B&B, Cheng Xiu felt a strange sense of disobedience, and the same room seemed to have been touched by something.Cao Huang acted quickly and found a bunch of wiretapping cameras under the sofa, under the lamp holder of the bedside table, in the shoe cabinet...

There are also balconies, hidden in flower pots.

Cao Huang poured water directly into the cup, and then smashed it with a small shovel while loosening the soil.

Cheng Xiu drank fruit juice, sat on the rocking chair, swayed and said, "The political drama is about to begin. Although you are not in a good situation now, with your golden finger, I believe you can break into the tight encirclement and step on your feet." Someone else's baldness has successfully squeezed into the actor's throne. I have confidence in you!"

Cao Yu said: "Behind every male lead who opens a golden finger, there must be a gentle female lead who silently supports."

Cheng Xiu said: "Cao Qizhi is suitable for you, Wang Zhen is waiting for you, it's really difficult, and there are black people with bald heads who worship you."

Cao Yu couldn't help smiling, and lightly touched his juice with a teacup: "Thank you for your good words."

"Are you really ready?" Cheng Xiu paused, and asked suspiciously, "Could it be your plan to come here? Lu Shuisheng too? You want to use this as an entry point to get into the political arena? Or else? There's really no reason for you to do it yourself for such small things." He had been suspicious since Cao Yu took him from house to house to destroy the evidence.Even if Mr. Cao's value has shrunk, Mr. Cao should be able to respond to every call back then.If you break into the empty door by yourself, if you are caught, your reputation will be ruined for the rest of your life, so many, lost, and lost!

Cao Huang said: "If there is a book about me, the title may be "Rebirth: Political Situation", or "Rebirth: Chief of Staff", at least it cannot be "Rebirth: Fortune Teller". Moreover, I am only 15 years old this year. There is still a distance from adulthood, not to mention the 35-year-old threshold known as "the second growth of the political arena". Now, I have been busy practicing mechs, adapting to the times, and searching for your whereabouts... There is still a little time left, and I am planning how to keep you by my side after the reunion. Where do you think I am? "

Cheng Xiu shook her legs: "What about now?"

Like it or not, they have been forcibly drawn into the political fray.At this point, the question type is no longer a true or false question, but a multiple choice question.Now that Pang Heyuan has opened his mouth, he may make a move in the next step.Whether it is self-protection or counterattack, no matter what choice you make, you must plan in advance.

Cao Yu said, "What do you think?"

Cheng Xiu said: "I don't even know who they are and what they are going to do." He just gloated when he saw the news that the current president came down as soon as he went up.

Cao Huang said: "The Baoyi Party, where the current president belongs, is one of the four old parties established in Jianguo. Ranked third. After the Progressive Party and the People's Voice Party."

Cheng Xiu said, "When did Cao's family join the party?"

Cao Yu said, "Now the Hua family is in charge."

"Condolences."

"...Feng Shui turns around."

Cheng Xiu shrugged.

Cao Huang continued: "Before the vote was announced, everyone believed that the president of this term was either the Progressive Party candidate or the People's Voice Party candidate. Therefore, after the Baoyi Party reached the top, it has been controversial. Until it was rumored that they voted Tricks to get the Legislative Assembly to consider annulling the election results or impeaching the president."

Cheng Xiu said, "I remember that the Pang family is the People's Voice Party?"

Cao Yu said: "The Pang family and the He family are the pillars of the Democratic Voice Party, and they control the two major forces of law enforcement and judiciary."

Cheng Xiu said: "I remember they were not so powerful before."

Cao Yu said: "The Cao family suffered a serious blow 50 years ago, which caused a talent gap, and had no choice but to let the Hua family take over..."

Cheng Xiu said, "From now on, I won't be able to come down."

Cao Yu did not deny it.

Cheng Xiu said: "So, if we give false testimony, we will help the People's Voice Party against the Baoyi Party? The Hua family and the Cao family must be very happy, right? When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman wins."

Cao Huang said: "Not necessarily. The impact of cheating on votes is extremely bad. Once the crime is confirmed, the reputation of the Baoyi Party will plummet, and the entire party may be forcibly disbanded. The People's Voice Party has a great reputation for punishing evil and eliminating rape. , will occupy a favorable position.”

Cheng Xiu said: "It may also be that the supporters of the Baoyi Party hated the People's Voice Party and instead supported the Shijin Party."

Cao Huang said: "Don't you know? Once the party you support is disbanded, supporters cannot vote for eight years."

"..." Cheng Xiu said, "There are so many rules and regulations, how can people remember them?"

Cao Yu took the opportunity to advertise: "Joining the Party means advancing with the times, and its purpose is to continuously reform and progress with changes in the environment and thinking."

Cheng Xiu got up after drinking the juice: "Okay, since you have made a decision, let's pack up our things and flee."

Cao Yu said, "Why do you want to flee?"

"Aren't you going to reject Director Short? I don't think he would answer 'it's okay' in such a good temper."

"I intend to agree."

Cheng Xiu was stunned: "Accidentally, you brushed the lower limit again."

Cao Yu said: "The photo shown by Pang Heyuan is the captain of Team F of the Special Operations Group." It is completely consistent with their speculation.It is almost 90.00% sure that the person in that portrait is the murderer.

Cheng Xiu said: "What about the Hua family and the Cao family? They shouldn't be very happy to see that Pang Heyuan's meritorious medal has your contribution?"

Cao Yu said, "I don't intend to go back to Cao's house."

Cheng Xiu said, "Did something unpleasant happen?"

"No. I just don't want 'Cao Yu' to follow the old path that Cao Xie walked." Cao Yu said, "As I said, I need new hope."

"Planning to completely join the People's Voice Party? You will probably be homeless in the future. If you were in ancient China, even the names on the genealogy would be crossed out."

"so what?"

Cheng Xiu sighed: "You have become a rootless person."

"..." Cao Yu said, "Why don't you give me a chance to prove whether I have roots or not."

Cheng Xiu: "..."

The matter developed to the end, and it turned into a fight between Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu on the balcony, or in other words, a unilateral beating.

Pang Heyuan came to the B&B in person, and as soon as the door opened, he saw a young man who was too handsome to be real four hours ago with a blue eye. "What happened to you guys?"

Cheng Xiu sat on the sofa and ate snacks to replenish her strength.Although Cao Yu had been carefully protecting him during the process, he was afraid that he would fight back subconsciously, and he was also afraid that Cheng Xiu would hurt himself if he moved too much, but the disadvantage of being young and poor in physical strength cannot be made up for by the other party letting go.After the fight, Cao Yu suffered from superficial injuries, and he definitely suffered from internal injuries, and his arms were so sore that he couldn't lift them up.

Seeing Cheng Xiu's appearance, Pang Heyuan was even more puzzled.

Cao Yu said, "Domestic violence."

Cheng Xiu said: "We are dueling whether to grant your request."

Pang Heyuan asked curiously: "The result?"

Cheng Xiu said, "I won."

Judging from his body shape, Cao Yu's water discharge was a bit serious.Pang Heyuan sighed with emotion about their feelings, and asked again: "Then what is your choice?"

Cheng Xiu stood up, clenched his fist and said, "Avenge Lu Shuisheng!"

Pang Heyuan showed a sincere smile.

Cao Yu was silently moved by Cheng Xiu's intentions.Even if Cao Yu wants to set up another family, before his fledglings are fledgling, it is better to offend Hua and Cao.Instead of letting him speak, it is better to carry it yourself.

What he thought of, Pang Heyuan also thought of, but he was not sure.After all, one is a child of seven or eight years old, and the other is a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old. If the mind is so meticulous and complicated, it is a talent, and even a monster.

After confirming that they became allies, Pang Heyuan was not stingy about the benefits. Not only did he let them move to a suite in the Yuelai Hotel, but he also arranged for a person to take them around for free.

When Cheng Xiu was happy, he still did not forget his comrades who were waiting in the field: "It would be great if Cao Qizhi and Wang Zhen came."

Cao Yu became sensitive when he heard Wang Zhen: "What are they doing so well?"

"I miss them just because they are good. Otherwise, there is no sense of superiority."

"..."

"Cao Qizhi won't wait for us, will he launch an attack?"

"No. I won't tell him not to do something illegal."

"..."

Although the CIA said it was in charge of intelligence and had no power to enforce the law, under the management of the Pang family, it held the police firmly in its hands, and it didn't matter whether it could enforce the law or not.Therefore, when they collected enough evidence, the police immediately took all the people involved in the case and returned to the central galaxy in a mighty way—including Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu as witnesses.

In order to allow them to cooperate better, Pang Heyuan briefly explained the ins and outs of the matter in four sentences:

[-]. The president was caught cheating.

[-]. The Legislative Assembly will punish him.

[-]. Lu Shuisheng's father was a witness who knew about his cheating, and he silenced him.

Fourth, we want to report him and avenge Lu Shuisheng.

Cao Yu asked the suspect's identity again, and this time Pang Heyuan said it.

Cao Yu pretended to be surprised.

Pang Heyuan took the opportunity to lobby: "The law is a rope that binds everyone's conscience and should not be removed for any reason. The 'execution of immunity law' is a threat to other law-abiding citizens."

Cao Yu said: "The 'Enforcement Exemption Law' is also a law."

"However, there is rejection of other laws. There should be no contradiction in the law. If there is a contradiction, it should be resolved in time." Pang Heyuan said earnestly, "Although you are still young, I hope that one day, when you have the ability to do what you want , Don’t hesitate to think about your position and interests.”

Cao Huang said: "The special operations team is under the direct control of the President's Office. If you become the President, don't you want such a flexible and mobile team to be directly under command?"

Pang Heyuan said: "Even if I become president, I only have eight years, but my life may have nine, ten, or even more eight years. What should I do in those years? I can only live in fear."

Cao Yu looked at him with admiration.According to the analysis, he believes that the candidate of the People's Voice Party is very likely to succeed the president. At that time, the special operations team will become a sickle in their hands, pointing at where to hit.However, Pang Heyuan still evaluated it objectively, and sincerely hoped that he could use the influence of the Cao family on the Legislative Assembly to promote the abolition of the "Executive Exemption Law".

The political arena of this era is not as bad as imagined.

As soon as they arrived at the capital star of the central galaxy, they received news that the major media were waiting outside the port.Pang Heyuan immediately summoned the spaceship and left directly from the port.

Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu were with him.

These days, Pang Heyuan has taken good care of them, and has established a friendship that can be broken at the touch of a touch, but there is something to look at.

Pang Heyuan asked Cao Huang if he wanted to see his family.

Cao Yu asked, "Can't I go back now?"

Pang Heyuan said: "You are an important witness, and I am responsible for your safety. Although you cannot go back, I can notify them to come and see you."

The Cao family who took the initiative to receive the news should be more kind than the Cao family who received the news passively.

Cao Yu chose to notify.

Pang Heyuan arranged them in the dormitory of the CIA, and the people living in it were all the CIA's own people, all of them were sharp-eyed. Cao Yu and Cheng Xiu lived in it, even if there were 72 changes, they couldn't escape from the palm of their hands, so it was very safe.

Cao Yu put away his luggage and special products, took a shower, and was about to come out to exchange feelings with Cheng Xiu, when Cao's family arrived.

According to his current seniority, it was his distant cousin, Cao Qizhi's own brother, named Cao Qigang.If Cao Qizhi was born with a dogmatic rigidity, he has an aristocratic arrogance.

Although he was surprised when he saw Cao Huang's face, he soon became arrogant: "You actually ran to help the Pang family, grandpa is very angry."

Grandpa's grandpa is still very angry!

Cheng Xiu secretly made a face at Cao Yu without knowing it.

Cao Yu smiled.

Cao Qigang said angrily: "You can still laugh?"

Cao Yu said indifferently: "When I saw my cousin for the first time, I cried directly. I don't think it's very polite to you."

Cao Qigang patted the table: "I'm talking about you helping the Pang family now."

Cao Yu said, "I didn't help anyone, I just told the facts I saw."

"I don't care, you have to change your confession! The matter of impeachment of the president must not go too smoothly! If they want to let them bite the dog more fiercely, it is best to hurt both sides!" The He family controls the judiciary, and the chief prosecutor who prosecuted is theirs.

Although the Hua family controls the scumbag Legislative Assembly and has the final decision on impeachment, if the chief prosecutor provides too detailed evidence, they cannot distort the trial results against the will of the people.

That's why when they heard that Pang Heyuan had found direct evidence against him, they were so annoyed.

The evidence is certain, there is absolutely no room for them to play their tricks!

Cao Yu said: "Every word you said just now is an apology to the righteous spirit and fair attitude of the Cao family. I can pretend that I didn't hear it, but please don't say any more."

Cao Qigang gritted his teeth in anger.I hate this kind of people who I tell you about party struggle, you tell me about justice, I tell you about interests, and you talk about reason with me!

He said, "Have you ever asked your grandfather to recommend you to the Central Military Academy?"

Cheng Xiu, who had been watching TV dramas all this time, finally lost his mind and looked at Cao Yu in surprise.

Central Military Academy?

The school where it is easy for students majoring in archeology to have a mess of their professional knowledge when they graduate, and to start a school where mechs are invincible?

What a vision.

Cao Huang shook his head and said, "I've changed my mind."

"It's useless for you to change anything. As long as we ask, no good school will accept you."

Not to mention whether the Cao family can cover the sky with one hand, Cao Yu's mentality has also changed now.In the past, he wanted to join the Central Military Academy to bring himself closer to Cheng Xiu. Now that he found the gap in combat between the two sides, he was no longer in a hurry to make up for it.The only wish is to be in the same school as Cheng Xiu, to go to school together, to eat together after class...and to go to the bathroom together?

It's also beautiful to think about.

Cao Qigang looked at the pretty young man who was obviously distracted, and couldn't bear to slap the table: "Did you hear what I said?"

Cao Yu said, "I heard it."

"Are you going to change your mouth?"

"Have you ever thought that if you come to see me, I will change my words immediately. Everyone will think that you have received some favors from the president to be a lobbyist. People's words are terrible. Once you are shaped into such an image, in the future It’s not easy to turn around.”

Cao Qigang was frightened, hurriedly said "whatever you want" and left.

Cheng Xiu looked at him with pity: "No wonder you want to start your own family."

Cao Yu also sighed: "He is already one of the Cao family's generation, who is more capable."

"Then what if you can't take it out?"

"Cao Qizhi like that."

"..." Cheng Xiu felt that he must not have woken up, no matter how he looked at it, Cao Qizhi was a hundred times stronger than Cao Qigang.

Cao Yu said, "Otherwise, he wouldn't have been pushed to my side."

Cheng Xiu: "..." The Cao family are all blind, that's why they are so dark.
