CHAPTER 23 Jail!
"Zhao Kai's matter..."
Looking at the nervous and expectant expressions of Ji Feng and Zhang Lei, Zhao Xingyao couldn't help but sigh with emotion, "This really makes you two worry. Zhao Kai having friends like you is his good fortune!"
Even though he had only known Ji Feng and Zhang Lei for a single night, Zhao Xingyao had seen all of their actions.
In the jail, Ji Feng and Zhang Lei dared to oppose the police, even daring to take action. They didn't hesitate to kidnap Superintendent Niu as a hostage, but they were still not afraid when facing the guns and guns of the police.
Although this was because Ji Feng and Zhang Lei's abilities were extraordinary and their courage was beyond ordinary, if it weren't for the fact that they truly considered Zhao Kai as their friend, who would have risked their lives to deal with Zhao Kai?
No matter how skilled he was, he couldn't possibly be invulnerable to swords and spears, right?
When they were confronting the police, what if one of the r.e.t.a.r.ds actually opened fire, would they be injured? He might even lose his life!
But Ji Feng and Zhang Lei did so without even blinking their eyes!
Other than the friendship between brothers, there was no other explanation for their actions!
Of course, if it was any other person doing this, Zhao Xingyao might even suspect that it was someone else who wanted to curry favor with him, the Prefectural Commander. That was the reason for his actions.
However, ever since he had vaguely known that Ji Feng and Zhang Lei might have quite the background, Zhao Xingyao had completely given up on this idea.
If Ji Feng and Zhang Lei could mobilize people from the military, would they need to curry favor with him?
What they did was all because they truly considered Zhao Kai to be their friend!
"On behalf of Zhao Kai, thank you!" Zhao Xinyao spoke sincerely. He even wanted to get down from his sickbed and bow to Ji Feng and Zhang Lei.
"Ha!" "Uncle, please don't!" Zhang Lei hurriedly stopped Zhao Xinyao and waved his hand with a smile, "If you say so, then we won't even know how we're supposed to stay here any longer."
"Uncle, our relationship with Zhao Kai is over there. There's no need for you to be so courteous." Ji Feng laughed, "Let's talk about Zhao Kai!"
"Zhao Kai..."
Mentioning his son, a bitter smile flashed across Zhao Xingyao's face, "He's currently in prison!"
"Prison!?"
Ji Feng and Zhang Lei cried out in alarm at the same time.
Zhang Lei was a bit anxious, so he immediately asked, "Uncle, what prison is Zhao Kai in? Did he commit a crime? "
With Zhao Kai's character, how could he possibly go to jail? If Zhang Lei was in prison, Ji Feng would believe him, because this guy was very tight-lipped at times. However, Zhao Kai was one of those type of listless people who had evil intentions in his heart.
Zhao Xingyao sighed, "I was the one who sent him to prison!"
When these words were spoken, Ji Feng and Zhang Lei were even more astonished.
Zhang Lei rubbed his forehead and said with a wry smile, "Uncle, you might as well finish it in one breath. Don't make us worry."
Zhao Xinyao said, "It's like this. In fact, a long time ago, I knew that some white-masked traffickers had come into the East Sun District. The activities were getting more and more rampant and were related to some leaders and their children.
"When I sensed danger, I called Zhao Kai and called him back. Then I had him go to another city and arrange for people to clash with him. It could be said that I had framed him …"
Following Zhao Xingyao's narration, Ji Feng and Zhang Lei finally understood why they couldn't contact Zhao Kai. It seemed that Zhao Kai had been set up by his father and was now in jail.
This guy was locked up in a cell, how could they be willing to contact him?
It turned out that Zhao Xingyao already had a premonition about the situation in the East Sun District. Therefore, he had arranged such a farce in advance. He had purposely let his son commit a crime and then locked him up.
It must be said that this move was indeed brilliant. At the very least, it was an excellent method to protect Zhao Kai.
No matter who it was, they would never have imagined that Zhao Xingyao, as a district governor and a official, would actually send his son to jail!
Perhaps it was because of this that Zhao Kai did not know about what had happened in the family, much less that his father had gone missing. In this way, Zhao Kai wouldn't need to take the risk to come back, and he wouldn't do everything he could to save Zhao Xingyao.
It could be said that this move not only protected Zhao Kai's personal safety, but also directly restricted Zhao Kai's personal freedom, leaving him no choice but to stay in the prison. There was neither the risk of being found nor the possibility of provoking danger!
"Then... Where's Aunt? " Zhang Lei asked.
"Your aunt rented a room over there, just waiting for Zhao Kai to come out." Zhao Xingyan said.
At this moment, Ji Feng and Zhang Lei couldn't help but fall into silence. They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. How pitiful for their parents.
In order to not let his son be in danger, Zhao Xingyao even sent Zhao Kai to jail, while he himself stayed behind to face the danger that might happen.
However, Zhao Kai's mother was unable to stop worrying for her son. If she wanted to stay with him in that city, even though they would definitely not be able to see each other while separated by the prison's tall walls, the feeling of standing guard outside could still comfort Zhao Kai's mother's worried heart.
In order to protect Zhao Kai, Zhao Xingyan and his wife had really put in a lot of effort!
Ji Feng raised his thumb, "Uncle, you're awesome!"
Zhao Xingyao shook his head and smiled as he waved his hand, "There's nothing we can do about it, it's all for the sake of the child. You guys know Zhao Kai's character, it's easier to talk about it normally than to talk about it, but if he gets stubborn and can't even pull back ten bulls, I can only use this method to trap him!"
Ji Feng nodded with a smile. Ji Feng deeply agreed with Zhao Xingyan's evaluation of Zhao Kai.
Although people like Zhao Kai were very sinister, in reality, they were usually very stubborn. However, they would not reveal this sort of character, but they would still hide it deep within their bones.
Pausing, Ji Feng asked, "Uncle, how long was Zhao Kai sentenced for? In which city? "
Zhao Xingyao shook his head, "In Hucheng... His case had not yet been decided, and he was only in custody for investigation. As long as the client changed his mind, he could come out at any time … Since one of the deputy directors of the local police is an old cla.s.smate of mine, I have to ask him to help me with this matter. "
Ji Feng laughed, "So that's how it is!"
He understood Zhao Xingyao's meaning. It seemed that before making this plan to protect Zhao Kai, Zhao Xingyao had still kept a hand in this. He believed that the victim must be one of Zhao Xingyao's men.
In this way, if Zhao Xingyao could quickly resolve the matter of the East Sun Sector and avoid danger, then Zhao Kai could come out at any time.
That's easy!
As long as Zhao Kai wasn't really in prison, it would be fine.
Ji Feng said, "Hucheng is not very far from Beijing, and we are heading back at the right time... "How about this, Uncle, we'll head over now to meet Zhao Kai."
Zhao Xinyao asked, "What, are you leaving now?"
Ji Feng nodded with a smile, "After all, it's almost the new year, so I should return as soon as possible. I'll pay you a visit when I have the time!"
Seeing that Zhao Xingyao still wanted to urge him to stay, Zhang Lei said, "Uncle, you don't need to stay. The tutoring in the family is too strict. If you don't go back, you'll be punished …"
Zhao Xingyao froze for a moment. Then, he understood and nodded, saying, "If that's the case, then I won't keep you guys here. I've only troubled you guys, but I haven't really thanked you …"
"Alright, alright!"
Zhang Lei hurriedly said, "Uncle, let's not talk about courtesies anymore. We have to go back now …"
They were friends with Zhao Kai, but Zhao Xingyao's polite thanks made them feel uncomfortable all over. There was nothing they could do, so they could only hurriedly leave the ward.
On the way back, Ji Feng called the other two helpers, telling them to return to Beijing first. Then, he called his uncle.
After that, Ji Feng and the others drove toward Hucheng. As for Zhang Lei's two Audi, they were driven away by the two helpers.
… ….
Hucheng City was also in the Beihe Province, and it was not too far away from Haizhou, but it was also not far from Beijing. The four of them only took about an hour to arrive at the city before they headed straight for the jail.
When they arrived, they saw Zhao Kai standing at the entrance of the jail with a middle-aged woman, waiting for them … It was likely that Zhao Xingyao had done everything in advance and notified them.
When a friend met, he was naturally exceptionally happy.
Zhao Kai pushed his gla.s.ses up, wanting to block the reddened eyes, and heavily patted Ji Feng and Zhang Lei's shoulders. "Brothers, thank you! This brother will remember this in his heart! "
In the phone call, Zhao Xingyao had told Zhao Kai everything. Even though Zhao Kai was not present, he could still imagine the scene at that time. Furthermore, Zhang Lei had already left ten days earlier to go to Hai Zhou to investigate, and Zhao Kai had memorized it all.
In reality, Zhao Kai did not know that even though Zhang Lei had not gained much in the last ten days in Hai Zhou, if Zhang Lei had not investigated and found out that Zhao Xingyao was still in Hai Zhou, who knew how long it would take the two of them to save Zhao Xingyao!
Of course, Ji Feng and Zhang Lei would naturally not go into details on these matters. Thus, when they saw Zhao Kai's reddened eyes, they decisively changed the topic.
Ji Feng laughed, "Don't be so anxious to thank us. This time, I didn't just bring good news, there is also bad news..."
Zhao Kai was stunned. "What?"
Ji Feng laughed, "Because of your lack of exams, your credits will be deducted by half this semester. Also, prepare to take the exams after the new year!"
Zhao Kai: "..."
"Bam!"
Ji Feng punched him, laughing out loud, "Don't just stand there. Go back with Aunty quickly. Use your brain more during this period of time. Don't lose your mind. I'm counting on you to give me some advice in the future!"
Zhao Kai immediately put on a serious face and said, "I am honored! "I will do my best …"
Ji Feng waved his hand. "Stop being jealous and get lost!"
