Chapter 64 - Forces

"You are currently involved in an important porcelain case, so I have to trouble you to come with us. Thank you for your cooperation."

"No, didn't you say you were going to let me go? What right do you have to capture me now?

The man tried his best to break free from the 'cage' in his hands. His heart was filled with anger, but when he thought of the captain of the police force, he immediately cowered and did not dare to breathe.

The leader tactfully looked at Li Xiang, and ordered his subordinates to seal the man's mouth tightly with sealant. If you dare spoil my plans now, then I will drag you down with me.

"Brother Hei, I'll be leaving first. "See you later."

The leader quickly jumped into the police car and drove away, leaving Li Xiang standing there in a daze, completely unaware of what he had just experienced.

But the only thing he was certain of was that the person who helped her had to have a strong backer. Otherwise, how could they drive a captain of a police force to act so subserviently?

But why would such a powerful figure help him? He had always kept a low profile and never left his name when doing good deeds.

However, since the other party had done him a big favor, he didn't have enough reason to doubt who was who. As long as it was beneficial for him, then he would be a good person and anyone who wanted to ruin his own interests would be his enemy.

"Do you know who that was? I never thought that the power behind you would be so powerful, Li Xiang." Mo Fei stared at the dumbstruck Li Xiang with the expression of a wyvern staring at a pig she had reared for so long. One day, she would finally be able to fly into the sky.

"That's right, I didn't expect that your backer would be stronger than me. That person even dared to offend me, but when he heard your name, he immediately became scared out of his wits."

Wen Jing acted like a little brother, teasing Li Xiang about his background.

"I don't know who that person is either …" Li Xiang did not say these words in the end.

Firstly, in order to protect his face, after this incident, Mo Fei and Wen Jing must have a whole new level of respect for him. He did not want to lose the admiration of these two beauties so easily, and secondly, he did not want others to worry.

But after today's ruckus, he had begun to doubt his own background, because for more than twenty years, he hadn't even known what his mother looked like.

Ever since he was young, his grandmother had told him that he was an orphan. His mother had disappeared into the distance, leaving him alone with his father. Thus, to this day, he had never suspected this answer.

When he was young, he remembered that he had asked his mother several times why she had left, but his grandmother had given him an answer that he could no longer remember. It was a vague answer, as if he was saying that his father's poor mother looked down on him, or that she had contracted some sort of illness.

He didn't want to implicate others by running away from home in anger, but it was no longer possible to tell which one was the right one or the wrong one.

This also caused him to have a callous and callous personality from a young age. He was not interested in any matter, and only after he left for the army did people call him a genius.

But who knew what he was doing behind his back? Every day, when others were playing, he would run and train. He spent almost all his spare time studying and practicing.

Some people said that a stupid bird would fly first. Perhaps it was true, but to him, he was born with a little bit of wisdom. Moreover, he would naturally become someone who deserved to be called a ruffian soldier the day after tomorrow.

"Look at that Li Xiang training him, he's just a scoundrel. I don't even know why the Captain would be willing to take him in."

"That's right, so what if he learned well? Who would be willing to get close to him to play with someone with such poor character?"

Every day, there were many people who mocked and ridiculed him for not even expending the slightest bit of effort to obtain what others wanted in their lives. Those people were all jealous, madly wanting to take him down.

But how could those people know that beneath the surface of the rogue was a bloody heart, a spirit that would never admit defeat.

Therefore, many things could not be seen from the surface, and even more so, one's appearance could not determine one's inner self.

It was just like some people who had an extraordinary temperament and talked about them. They were truly male idols, yet they did all sorts of evil things behind their backs. They were truly devoid of conscience and deserved to be struck by lightning, yet no one could see his dark scene.

However, although some people would unreservedly reveal the darkest part of their hearts, their hearts were extremely kind. They would help many people do different things, but they would never leave any traces behind.

And he surely belonged to the latter.

On the other side, Chen Zhongjian, who had just been sent back by police car, felt indignant. A level 1 official could crush a person to death. Greedy officials these days were really corrupt. If they couldn't bully their superiors, they could just find ordinary citizens to vent their resentment.

"Come with me after you finish reporting. Our captain has everything he needs to see you for."

A policeman opened the prison door for Chen Zhongjian. He glanced at Chen Zhongjian with disdain.

"Forget it. When the time comes, it's better if you go by yourself. I have something to do, you turn left and then right, walking fifty meters straight ahead. Do you know if it's Li Xi's office?" Don't blame me if you walk out of the way. I have done my duty. "

What did the policeman mean? Chen Zhongjian had been in society for so many years, how could he not know? Honestly speaking, he looked down on his own status and position. If the person in front of him was a Lord of Mayor, would he dare spout such nonsense?

Why couldn't he just grab a bunch of bird's nest and go "pay respects"?

According to the policeman's request, Chen Zhongjian made a few small turns before finally finding Li Xi's office door. The door was lit up, so he didn't dare to rashly go there.

"Excuse me, is this Captain Li?"

"Yes, yes. Ah, yes, wait for me."

Li Xi tidied up the underwear that had been randomly thrown on the table, tidied up his clothes, and opened the door.

"You are the Chen Zhongjian that I suppressed, right? I know you are very unconvinced with me, and of course I am also very unconvinced with my superiors, but there is no other way. "Right now, I will give you a chance. I can release you, but only if you beat up that woman."

Saying so, Li Xi slowly took out a stack of red Grandpa Mao and a cheque from his sleeve.

"I know you hate her too. This is three hundred thousand yuan, so it's yours to help me deal with her."

"There are only two paths in front of you right now. Either you shut up and never appear in front of me again. I want you to live in prison for your entire life and never come out again. The second way is to do what I say, and naturally you will benefit from it. "

These words were nothing more than to grasp onto Chen Zhongjian's weakness. The second condition, although it seemed like paying a lot of money was the best choice, but it also had one of the most basic requirements, and that was to survive.

He knew a little about the woman's martial arts after the previous match. Although it wasn't as good as the man beside her, it was still quite easy for him to take on a few weak people.

Free gold would not fall into this world. If there was a trap, it would be waiting for you to take the bait. After you take the bait, the money you hoped for would be gone.

If this matter was really as easy to solve as he had imagined, of course, a bunch of people would rush to do it. Furthermore, to Li Xi, it would be much more stable for him to work for them.

It was obvious that they were waiting for him to help pave the way for them before they kicked it away and destroyed the bridge after they crossed the river.

The problem was that he was the only one standing in the way. If he won, then he wouldn't be any better. The law on murderers deserved to be sentenced to death, and then someone else would benefit from it.

He had been muddling along in this society for so many years that he would definitely be able to see through everything.

Therefore, the latter was the worst case scenario, when he was still willing to choose the latter.

This was because he wanted to regain his freedom. Moreover, if an orphan like him entered the prison, although he would not die, who would be able to pay his monthly fees? He could only sit there and wait for death.

Those swine friends of his must have known him well at this time.

Blessed together, I do not accompany you to bear the hardships, husband and wife were originally the same as the forest bird, when the great disaster flew away. Not to mention a friendship that only focused on money. Just a simple touch would cause one's body to break into pieces.

I might as well just keep the three hundred thousand tightly in my pocket and enjoy the few good days I have.

I know you're a smart person, otherwise you wouldn't have climbed up to where you are today and no one would have reported you. Of course, if you hadn't met those lunatics, you might have continued to earn money, but investing is a risk.

"You don't need to say that. If I chose the second point, you would release me now, right?"

Li Xi nodded, and it could be considered as admitting it. He took out the cheque and marked the number on it.

"As expected, talking to a smart person is different. Later on, go to the archive and get a copy of the woman's information." You only need to kill her. As for the other things, the less you know, the better. And I'll send someone to monitor your movements every day. If you take the money and squander it without helping me, you know what the consequences will be. "

Li Xi turned the ring on his ring finger and said, his mouth slightly raised.

After Chen Zhongjian left, Li Xi took out a cheque with a million denomination on it from the drawer. He gnashed his teeth and smiled. This money was really easy to earn.

If only there were so many straightforward people in this world, he would have to risk his life and work all night long. He only had around 5,000 yuan, and that would earn him several years' worth of salary.

Moreover, this kind of work was not dangerous at all. Just by being a middleman and passing on information to each other, he would be able to earn a lot of money.

If something were to happen, the two of them could push each other aside a little and he would be able to leave the matter. He would not be implicated; it would only be a matter of business that did not cost him money.
