From the beginning, there wasn't much wrong with the messages sent by Cao Jinshi. Most of them were asking about Cao Zhifeng's whereabouts and news about Deng Yong.

Halfway through the message, she seemed to have come to her senses and asked Cao Zhifeng if he and Deng Yong were working together to deceive people.

Cao Zhifeng basically glanced at the series of messages and ignored them, which made Cao Jinshi's mood become increasingly unstable.

The last message he saw at the moment was a picture of Cao Jinshi holding a knife on his wrist, trying to force him to tell the truth.

Cao Zhifeng knew his daughter's temper better than anyone else, and knew that if she didn't let her see Deng Yong and ask for a clear explanation, no matter what he said, it would be difficult to dissuade her.

Threatening to cut her wrists was the only way she could think of in desperation. Perhaps Cao Jinshi could also feel that if she didn't see Deng Yong this time, she might never see him again.

The anger and pain in Cao Zhifeng's eyes were mixed together, and he was on the verge of exploding.

He didn't blame his daughter for being stubborn about Deng Yong, but he was angry that she actually used self-mutilation to force him.

But he didn't dare to bet on how determined Cao Jinshi was, or he didn't dare to stimulate his daughter in this state. After hesitating for a long time, he finally made a hoarse voice.

"Deng Yong and I are both performing tasks in Liujiaba Village, Liuluo County. When the operation is over, I will take him home to see you."

"Be obedient and don't do stupid things."

After thinking about it, Cao Zhifeng preached in a calm voice: "You can't get any benefits from self-mutilation except forcing the people who love you to compromise."

"Don't be too impulsive in everything, always think about the meaning of what you do."

Less than ten seconds after the voice was sent, Cao Jinshi already had a reply, which was also a voice message.

"Dad, I'm sorry." Cao Jinshi's voice was trembling, and her throat was as dry as a foreign object stuck, but she could tell that she was in a very happy mood, "I will go to Liuluo County to find you right away and apologize to you in person."

Cao Zhifeng was just about to ask her if she had a cold, when he heard his daughter say that she was coming to Liuluo County. He hurriedly dialed the number, but no one answered for a long time.

"This stinky girl." Cao Zhifeng's hand holding the phone froze in place. He couldn't help pinching his eyebrows, and shook his head with a wry smile, his tone was quite helpless.

After Cao Jinshi, who was still in Yanbei District on the other side, finished replying to the message, he couldn't help coughing twice, stood up, pulled out some tissue paper and blew his nose, ignoring the ringtone from his cell phone.

Lao Cao will definitely scold me again if he calls me. If I don't listen, I won't listen...Cao Jinshi touched her red nose and walked out of the house briskly.

Brother Yong, you shouldn't bear so much alone, I'm here to find you.

There was only determination in her eyes.

……

Liujiaba Village.

Deng Yong drove towards the national road intersection. Halfway through the vehicle, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from behind in the light of the headlights.

He doesn't need to distinguish too much at all, he can recognize who it is just by looking at the outline.

"Mr. Jiang, how about I give you a ride?" Deng Yong took the initiative to slow down the car, rolled down the window, and shouted to Jiang Ran who was walking slowly.

Jiang Ran didn't even turn his head. When Deng Yong thought he was silently refusing, he nodded casually.

"can."

Deng Yong was slightly stunned when he heard this answer and then subconsciously tapped the brakes.

Before the vehicle lost its forward momentum and stopped, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, and couldn't help but rub his eyes with one hand.

Jiang Ran, who was still walking forward slowly, disappeared from sight when he lightly braked.

"Mr. Jiang?!" He shouted hesitantly, mixed with shock, but received no response.

When I was confused, I inadvertently raised my head and glanced at the rearview mirror. My muscles immediately tightened and I unconsciously sat up straighter.

Deng Yong took the initiative to slow down the vehicle's forward speed. He glanced at Jiang Ran's expression changes from time to time, as if he had something to say.

After a while, Deng Yong, who didn't wait for Jiang Ran to speak, finally couldn't help but asked: "Mr. Jiang, why did you kill Zhou Yuanwei, Hou San and others?"

"It's true that they are drug dealers, but if you take action, wouldn't it be a crime in a sense?"

Jiang Ranyun asked calmly: "Shouldn't they die?"

There was still no direct answer to the murder question. Deng Yong felt that while Jiang Ran's words were impeccable, he was also a little overwhelmed by this question.

Even if he was not unfortunately addicted to drugs, whenever he faced such a question, he would always have only one answer, damn it.

But he could not respond directly as a law enforcement officer. Saying that the crime was not worthy of death would not go against his conscience. Saying that he deserved death seemed to be fueling Yang Jiang Ran's arrogance.

Silence is the best answer.

Deng Yong was silent for a while and then took the initiative to change the subject: "Is the person who left with you just now also a subordinate of Hou San?"

He was probably sure that the man with the polyp in the corner of his eye was probably involved with Hou San and others. This tentative question was just to see what kind of trick Jiang Ran was planning to do.

Hou San and the others all lost their lives. It makes no sense to leave one of the other party's younger brothers alive. Anything that is unreasonable must be fishy.

Jiang Ran frowned slightly, "He is Hou San's confidant."

Deng Yong was stunned by his straightforward answer and asked without thinking: "Where are the others?"

As soon as he asked this question, his hair stood up for no reason, because he thought of a not so good answer.

Judging from Jiang Ran's decisiveness and ruthlessness, there must be some purpose in keeping the lives of Hou Hou's three confidants, but once the purpose is achieved, there will be no place to use each other.

Jiang Ran was on his way alone just now. From the looks of it, the polyp man was probably gone.

"Should I know?" Jiang Ran's expression remained unchanged and he asked indifferently.

Sure enough, Deng Yong secretly thought to himself that he had obtained the exact answer.

"Did Mr. Jiang have an old relationship with that man?" Although he knew that the polyp man had probably been killed by Jiang Ran, Deng Yong still remembered Cao Zhifeng's instructions and made insinuations to find out more.

"No need to guess." Jiang Ran seemed to be unable to tolerate Deng Yong's low-level way of talking, and directly explained the reason, "That guy knows where Hou San's money is hidden."

"You took him away just for the black money in Hou San's hand?" Deng Yong's breathing became short. "Even if the other party reveals where the money is hidden, it is illegal for you to take the money without authorization."

"Is it illegal?" Jiang Ran raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a playful look in his eyes.

"How much money has Hou San earned? Do you know every payment clearly?"

"In other words, since you can't find it, then Hou San doesn't have this money in his hands at all."

After he said these words, he looked at Deng Yong with interest, waiting for the other party's rebuttal.

Deng Yong was suddenly speechless, mainly because they really knew nothing about these situations.

Just as Jiang Ran said, not knowing and not finding it means that this black money does not exist at all.
