Interrogation room of Changdu Town Public Security Bureau.

Incandescent lamps hung from the ceiling, illuminating the police officer in charge of the interrogation and Yu Chengping, who was hiding in the shadows with his head lowered.

"Yu Chengping, tell me everything you've done!"

"A year ago, the old director retired, and I received a call from Qu Zhi from the Qu family. He promised to promote me and allow me to smoothly take the position of director of the Public Security Bureau." At this point, Yu Chengping swallowed to relieve the dryness in his throat.

Sitting opposite him and interrogating him were his two subordinates.

They were wearing police uniforms and looked at him righteously.

Yu Chengping was like a mouse that was suddenly exposed to the sun. He shrank back and said, "Qu Zhi wants me to get rid of Jiang Chen from Dahe Village."

"I originally thought this was a simple matter." At this point, Yu Chengping's tone was filled with resentment: "Who would have thought that Jiang Chen was famous for being difficult to deal with, and there were many people following him. Wang Meng couldn't find a chance to take action, and it took a year."

The interrogating police officer asked in confusion, "You didn't get the job done, didn't Qu Zhi contact you to urge you?"

Yu Chengping is an old fox. Since he failed to accomplish his mission, he was afraid that Qu Zhi would remove him from the position of director of the Public Security Bureau. Naturally, he contacted Qu Zhi, hoping to buy peace with money.

"I told him to give him 70% of the money Wang Meng gave me and I would give him 30%. He agreed immediately."

"When he agreed, I was very happy, thinking that this was a handle on him. If he ever did something to me in the future, I would use it to drag him down with me." Yu Chengping's expression was not happy when he said this, but even more angry. "I didn't expect that the next day, Qu Zhi said he didn't want money and would not take my position. He never contacted me again after that."

When he said this, he turned his head and looked at the transparent glass, and said in a cold voice: "I don't have any evidence against Qu Zhi here. It's useless to use me against him. Just give up."

"This old fox."

Jiang Weiguo, who was behind the one-way glass, heard Yu Chengping's words and cursed angrily.

He turned to look at Jiang Chen: "Do you believe what he said?"

Jiang Chen's narrow eyes slightly raised, deep in his eyes there was complete coldness, and his thin lips slightly opened: "Qu Zhi is very smart, he will not leave any evidence when he does things."

What's more, he has an expert behind him to guide him.

"Why did Qu Zhi attack you?" Jiang Weiguo knew the Qu family. He knew that as long as Old Man Qu was around, no one could touch the Qu family. To mess with the Qu family was equivalent to messing with a behemoth.

Jiang Chen knew, but he didn't plan to tell Jiang Weiguo.

"I'll give you a great deed." Jiang Chen's lips curved deeper, and he said lazily, "There is a black mine in Xishan District."

Jiang Weiguo's eyes widened immediately, and he said with rapid breathing: "Are you serious?"

Jiang Chen said lazily: "Why would I lie to you?"

He put his hands in his pockets and left, turning his back to Jiang Weiguo and said leisurely: "I'll give you four words, act quickly."

Jiang Weiguo didn't bother to ask him where he got the news from, and shouted, "Assemble!"

"Brother Jiang, this kid wants to see you."

Zhou Liang and Meng Guan came in with a thin young man.

The young man was extremely thin, probably due to malnutrition, and his hair turned slightly yellow in the sunlight.

"He is the monkey, the one who let Wang Meng run away." Meng Guan reminded.

Jiang Chen sat on the table, his long legs hanging down, playing with the mahogany box in his hands, and asked coldly: "Why do you want to see me?"

The monkey knelt down in front of Jiang Chen.

Meng Guan and Zhou Liang were shocked.

There was no expression on Jiang Chen's face. He looked at the monkey as if he was looking at a dead object.

Monkey didn't dare to play tricks and said honestly: "Brother Jiang, my sister was kidnapped. I let Wang Meng go because I wanted to follow him to find my sister."

Jiang Chen bent one leg and put it on the table, resting his wrist on his knee. He said lazily, "Even if you follow Wang Meng, you won't be able to find your sister."

"But Wang Meng promised me."

"Idiot." Jiang Chen's tone was as cold as iron: "Wang Meng sells young men like you to the mines, and young women to the inland mountains, or to the red-light districts of big cities through sea transportation."

"When a person is sold, it's like a drop of water merging into the ocean. How can you find him?"

The monkey raised his head and said firmly: "I'm not afraid. I will find my sister no matter how long it takes."

Zhou Liang also has a sister. He was originally annoyed with Monkey, but now he was moved and couldn't help but say, "Brother Jiang, let's help him."

Jiang Chen glanced at Zhou Liang coldly.

Zhou Liang immediately shut up.

"Send him to Lao Jiang."

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, the monkey was confused.

Meng Guan stepped forward and pulled him out.

Monkey thought Jiang Chen didn't want to help him, and shouted anxiously: "Brother Jiang, please help me, please!"

Zhou Liang blocked his mouth, and the three of them went out of the door entangled.

As soon as he got out of the door, Meng Guan explained, "Wang Meng is in the hands of Mayor Jiang. He will definitely tell you where to sell the people. You want to find your sister. It's useless to find Brother Jiang. Mayor Jiang can help you."

The monkey nodded repeatedly after listening.

He looked at Meng Guan and Zhou Liang and said solemnly: "Thank you, and thank you Brother Jiang. If I have the chance, I will definitely repay you."

Meng Guan was disgusted by this boy's chattering and wanted to send him away, but he didn't take his words to heart at all.

However, Zhou Liang on the side was very moved and kept encouraging the monkey.

Meng Guan was speechless after hearing this.

After finishing his work in the town, Jiang Chen hurried back to Dahe Village.

As soon as I entered the village, I went straight to the health center.

When I pushed the door open, there was only Old Man Liu inside, and Ye Rou was not there.

When he saw him, Old Man Liu rolled his eyes in annoyance.

Jiang Chen ignored him and asked coldly, "Where's Ye Rou?"

Doctor Liu told Jiang Chen what happened in the afternoon.

Before he finished speaking, Jiang Chen ran away immediately after hearing that Ye Rou had gone to the cowshed.

"You little brat, I haven't finished yet!"

Doctor Liu yelled at him angrily.

Jiang Chen pretended not to hear and ran straight to the bullpen.

"Xiao Rou, is there anything wrong with this photo?" Zheng Xiu looked at Ye Rou who was holding the photo motionlessly.

Ye Rou shook her head. She was worried about how to tell Mr. Zheng that Zheng Li had died and had experienced so many tragic things.

Ye Rou held the photo in her hands, frowning in worry.

Jiang Chen pushed the door open and came in. Seeing him, Ye Rou was a little surprised and asked, "Have you finished dealing with the things in town?"

"Ah."

Jiang Chen walked up and held Ye Rou's hand, and put his other hand in his pocket, trying to take out the red box.

"I have something to tell you." Ye Rou grabbed his hand, said something to her aunt, and walked out.

Jiang Chen paused in taking out his things and let Ye Rou pull him out.

"What's wrong?" He lowered his voice and spoke in a gentle tone.

Ye Rou wrinkled her fair face, took out the photo and handed it to Jiang Chen, then briefly explained the matter to him.

Jiang Chen held the photo and looked at it. The black and white photo was old, but because it was well preserved, he could just barely make out the face of the person on it.

The girl standing in the second row does look a lot like Ye Rou.

Ye Rou worriedly asked, "If Zheng Li died, would Mr. Zheng be able to bear it if he knew?"

"Don't underestimate that old man. He will hold on even for you." Jiang Chen took Ye Rou's hand and led her to the cowshed where the four old men lived.

The closer Ye Rou got to the cowshed, the faster her heart beat.
