Chapter 124 Something Happened

"Officer Liu, why did you suddenly appear here? What happened?" Tang Xuan asked nervously after closing the car door.

Officer Liu looked around vigilantly before turning to Tang Xuan, "Yes, Ke Ke and I have lost contact."

Tang Xuan couldn't believe her ears, "What? Really?"

"Well." Officer Liu looked very serious, "Originally, I met her once a week, but there was no movement from her this week. I took the initiative to contact her, but she didn't answer the phone, and the text messages she replied were very different from before. Two days later, she still didn't take the initiative to contact me, and now I can basically conclude that something happened to her."

In an instant, Tang Xuan's hands and feet were cold, and her whole body felt frozen.

Although she had known for a long time that both she and Ke Ke were in a dangerous situation, she still couldn't accept hearing that something happened to Ke Ke.

Tang Xuan worked hard to calm down for a few minutes before she spoke again, "Then... what will happen to her? That old Deng seems... quite scary."

"It's hard to say." Police Officer Liu didn't know if he was trying to stabilize Tang Xuan, or if he really believed in Ke Ke, and comforted Tang Xuan, "But you don't have to worry too much about her. At this juncture, everyone is very cautious and will not act rashly. I will send someone to find out about her."

"Hmm..." Tang Xuan lowered her head and told Ke Ke that something was wrong when she sent a text message.

Officer Liu was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "There is nothing wrong with your text message, but it is unknown whether someone surnamed Deng will suspect you and check you according to your number. What you have to do now is to be highly vigilant , must not reveal any horse feet."

Tang Xuan frowned, "Then what if Lao Deng came to visit me?"

"Deny, if he really comes to your door, you just pretend you don't know anything, don't admit anything. You know?"

"understood."

Officer Liu glanced at his watch and urged Tang Xuan, "It's almost time. I asked you to check the things related to Xiao Yu. Have you brought it with you now?"

"I brought it." Tang Xuan quickly took out a USB flash drive and a few copies of documents from her bag, "It's all in here."

"Okay, I'll take it back to watch." Police Officer Liu put away the USB flash drive, looked at Tang Xuan, seemed to be struggling for a while, and then said, "Well...we plan to set the date of closing the net at No. 12."

Tang Xuan was stunned again. She looked at Officer Liu blankly, "Why...why?"

Although Police Officer Liu showed that he couldn't bear it, his tone and attitude were very firm, and there was no room for change, "Because on that day, their vigilance was the lowest, which was the most beneficial to us, and the arrest effect was the best."

"..." Tang Xuan was silent, she didn't know what to say.

"Miss Tang, we are sorry for this decision, but... hope you can cooperate with our work."

Tang Xuan gritted her teeth, "Okay."

Apart from this good word, she has no choice.

Could it be that at this time, she can still quit and say I can't do it, can you not do this?Ke Ke is very likely to be exposed, life and death are uncertain, how can she be so willful.

Officer Liu has solved many major cases, and he has contacted hundreds of eyeliners. No matter how hard he feels, it will not affect his decision.

"That's how it is. I'll come to you if something happens. Be careful." Police Officer Liu patted Tang Xuan on the shoulder, and comforted Tang Xuan, "Be careful, when this matter is completed, you will be free." gone."

Tang Xuan got out of Police Officer Liu's car in a messy state of mind. If she didn't know too well that this was still Xiao's territory, and there were Xiao's employees passing by, Tang Xuan really wanted to sit down on the spot and take a breath regardless of her appearance.

But there were employees who knew her around, so Tang Xuan couldn't do this, so she could only bear with it, tried her best to keep the expression on her face so that it wouldn't be too ugly, and walked slowly on the way home.

What she was most worried about happened.

The wedding that Xiao Zihan was looking forward to and preparing with all his heart was destined to be ruined.

"Xiaoxuan?" Tang Xuan looked down at the road, and as she walked, she suddenly heard a shout coming from her side. For a moment, she thought she was hallucinating, but the voice rang out several times soon.

Tang Xuan looked up in the direction of the sound source, and saw Xiao Zihan sitting in the driver's seat.

"Get in the car." Xiao Zihan drove the car a little closer to her. Although Tang Xuan didn't react, she got into the car first.

Xiao Zihan looked at the distraught Tang Xuan, thought of the strange man just now, and couldn't help asking, "What's wrong with you?"

"..." Tang Xuan didn't answer, but instead asked Xiao Zihan, "Why are you here?"

Xiao Zihan replied, "I'll wake up and finish my meal, and I'll come out to pick you up from get off work."

Xiao Zihan deliberately emphasized the word "sleeping and waking up", and Tang Xuan immediately understood the meaning of the words.Tang Xuan scratched her head and said embarrassedly, "Look, without you today, the sky didn't fall."

"The sky didn't fall, but you and I were almost taken away." Xiao Zihan didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly, "Who was that man in white clothes just now? Someone you know?"

When Tang Xuan saw Xiao Zihan just now, she thought that Xiao Zihan must have witnessed the process of her meeting with Police Officer Liu. She carefully recalled all the details just now to ensure that she could not say anything wrong.

"That...is a policeman I've known for a long time..." Tang Xuan didn't dare to lie about her identity, but she was afraid that Xiao Zihan would be curious about Officer Liu, so she had to point the reason to her own miserable life experience again. "A few years ago, one of my cousins ​​died unexpectedly. I filed a report and asked them to help me investigate."

Xiao Zihan never thought of this answer. All his doubts and doubts disappeared, leaving only curiosity, "Then what, he came to you just now, is there any result in the investigation?"

Tang Xuan nodded, "That's right. He said he found some clues and let me know."

In fact, this lie was full of loopholes. If another person told Xiao Zihan, Xiao Zihan would immediately question it, but when Tang Xuan said it, Xiao Zihan believed it [-]% without even thinking about it.

Not only did he believe it, but he also felt pity for Tang Xuan, "Your cousin must have treated you well before she died."

"...Mmm." Tang Xuan's nose turned sore, "She is the best person in this world, other than my parents, who treats me the best."

"Huh?" Xiao Zihan frowned when he heard Tang Xuan's emotion, "Really?"

Tang Xuan was three parts funny and seven parts helpless, "Do you want to argue about this? My cousin has passed away. No matter how good she is, she can only live in my memory."

Xiao Zihan didn't refute, but nodded.

"Of course I know that you are the one who treats me best now." Tang Xuan stretched out her hand and grabbed Xiao Zihan's wrist, "Besides them, you are the person who treats me best in this world, and I will always remember it. "

Seeing that Tang Xuan was feeling sad again, Xiao Zihan hurriedly adjusted the atmosphere, "Of course, I am such a good boyfriend and husband, you can't find it with a lantern. After passing through this village, there will be no such shop. If you take me Get angry, and you will regret it!"

Tang Xuan couldn't help but burst out laughing when Xiao Zihan said the words that were originally affectionate in a funny tone.

"Okay, don't think about sad things. The past can't be changed. The only thing we can grasp is the present."

No one could understand the meaning of this sentence better than Tang Xuan. After hearing this, she nodded her head and repeated, "Yes, grasp the moment, every minute, every second."

While the two were talking, the car had already driven into the community and stopped in the parking space.

Tang Xuan unbuckled her seat belt and went to open the door, but Xiao Zihan grabbed her hand.Xiao Zihan smiled and pouted at Tang Xuan, "Look there."

Tang Xuan looked in the direction Xiao Zihan suggested, and saw roses that almost occupied the entire seat in the back row.

"I planned to give it to you as soon as you got in the car, but I didn't mention it because of your complexion at that time." Xiao Zihan then pulled Tang Xuan out of the car, opened the rear door, and hugged the rose Come out and hand it to Tang Xuan, "Here it is for you."

Tang Xuan swallowed her saliva and asked in confusion, "Why...why did you send me roses?"

Xiao Zihan bought flowers at random, but when asked why, he could only casually find a reason, "To thank you for caring about my identity, baby."

Tang Xuan took the flowers carefully, and sneaked a glance at Xiao Zihan, "I thought you would say that I was too self-assertive, you...don't be angry."

"I was a little angry when I just woke up, but after thinking about why you did this, how can I get angry again." Xiao Zihan stroked Tang Xuan's hair lovingly, "I've been so emotional these days. You worry about me."

Tang Xuan almost choked up when she heard Xiao Zihan's gentle tone, "I...I'm fine."

"Okay, it's so easy to cry." Xiao Zihan smiled and pulled Tang Xuan into his arms, "I'm really getting younger and younger."

"That's not true." Tang Xuan muttered and retorted.

Xiao Zihan chuckled, "Let's go, go home."

……

The wedding day was approaching day by day, and in the last few days, Tang Xuan and Xiao Zihan no longer went to the company to go to work on time, and all things were handled at home through the computer.

Police Officer Liu did not contact Tang Xuan again, and it was rare for Tang Xuan not to have a mission, so she could get along well with Xiao Zihan.

What puzzled Tang Xuan was that after Xiao Zihan found out that Xiao Yu was Xiao Mingyuan's illegitimate son, except for the initial gaffe, melancholy, and entanglement, now it was normal as if he didn't know anything.

He was even able to hold a video conference with Xiao Yu with a calm face, except that his attitude was a little colder than before, outsiders could not see any other changes at all.

Tang Xuan originally thought that even if Xiao Zihan didn't make a big fuss, he would at least spread the matter out and explain it clearly.

But judging from Xiao Zihan's current meaning, it seems that he wants to pretend that this incident has never happened, and pretends not to know.

But, can you really pretend not to know?

Tang Xuan didn't believe it, but she couldn't take the initiative to ask Xiao Zihan what he planned to do, so she could only continue to observe silently, paying attention to Xiao Zihan's movements all the time.

"Xiao Xuan, why are you in a daze?" Xiao Zihan walked past Tang Xuan with a Bluetooth headset and a laptop in his arms.

Tang Xuan came back to her senses and smiled faintly, "It's nothing, what do you want to eat tonight, I'll go shopping."

Xiao Zihan: "You don't have to do it yourself, I'm too tired, let me order takeaway."

"Takeaway is too greasy. I'm not tired. Cooking is quick." Tang Xuan said as she walked to the door, changed her shoes and got the keys. "Go ahead and do your work. I'll go and buy."

"Well, pay attention to safety on the road."

After the door closed, Xiao Zihan stared at the door panel for a few seconds, then went into the study with the computer in his arms, and dialed a number he rarely used.

After picking up the phone, the other person respectfully said, "Young Master Xiao."

Xiao Zihan hummed, "What I told you to check, did you find any clues?"

"I found it." The person over there hesitated, "But I found a new problem. After I check it out, shall I report it to you together?"

"Don't worry, just don't make a mistake."

"clear."

Xiao Zihan hung up the phone and sighed slightly.In the car that day, he could see that Tang Xuan was very sad. She had a lot of thoughts about her cousin who had passed away unexpectedly.

Although he can't make up for her past, he can help her fulfill her wish and find out the real reason for her cousin's accidental death for her.

To reassure her.
