Chapter 204: Men have to be ruthless when doing things!
Then there was a muffled sound of slippers hitting the wooden floor in the room.
“Boom...Boom...Boom...”
A middle-aged woman with a baby face put down her needlework, took the food on the table and walked into the kitchen, mumbling:
"Shuxin, if you don't have any social engagements at night, come back early and stop hanging out with those little punks."
Due to the special nature of his police identity, every time Qiao Shuxin contacted the organization, he would use the excuse of being a friend in the underworld as a cover.
After all, in this era, the police mostly deal with gangsters and sometimes have to rely on these people for help.
Qiao Shuxin was not annoyed by the woman's chattering. Instead, he smiled and said:
"Sister, don't worry, I won't deal with them again."
The sound of frying food could be heard from the kitchen.
"That's right, my Shuxin is going to be promoted soon, and his status will be completely different. It would be a loss of status for him to continue to mess around.
By the way, Shuxin, when will you be transferred to the Municipal Bureau?"
"Sister, it should be soon. The transfer order will probably arrive in two or three days."
"Well, Shuxin has a bright future. May the spirits of my parents in heaven bless my brother with smooth future."
The scene of the brother and sister chatting was very warm. At this time, the sound of the metal lock on the door turning caught their attention.
"Is Xiao Wu back?" the woman's voice came from the kitchen again.
"Mom, I'm back."
"Oh, that's great, wash your hands and have dinner with your uncle."
Seeing that Qiao Shuxin was smoking, Xiao Wu also took out a cigarette from his cigarette box.
"You little brat, are you so casual now? You smoked my cigarette without telling me."
Xiao Wuzi smiled and joked:
"Hehe! There are many people who want to give Sheriff Joe good cigarettes. What's wrong with helping your poor little nephew?"
Qiao Shuxin took out two more cigarettes from her bag and said, "Smoke these in the future. Smoke less cigarettes. They're not good for your health."
Xiao Wuzi looked towards the kitchen and put the cigarette into his pocket without hesitation.
“Don’t tell my mom that she nags me every time I smoke your good cigarettes.
Oh, by the way, uncle. How to deal with the female corpse case during the day? Lao Hou informed me that he is waiting for your instructions.
Qiao Shuxin blew out a smoke ring and said without thinking:
"It's better to close the case as soon as possible. It's best to deal with it tomorrow. We need to be quick and try not to attract other people's attention."
Although Xiao Wuzi was curious about his uncle's unusual behavior, he always carried out his orders without compromise. He had no father since he was a child, so his uncle had always been his support, including entering the police station and being able to hold this iron rice bowl comfortably every day, which was arranged by his uncle.
He also heard the importance of the matter from his uncle's tone, but he never asked the reason.
"Don't worry, uncle, I will take care of it myself tomorrow."
Qiao Shu nodded with satisfaction and looked at his nephew.
Although Xiao Wuzi is young, he is very smart and reliable.
"Oh, uncle, I was on duty tonight and heard that the Green Gang had a fight with someone at the Yangtze River Wharf and got beaten up by the other side.
I really don't know who this person is. He is so powerful. Isn't this a slap in the face of Boss Huang?"
Qiao Shuxin widened his eyes in disbelief, but said nothing.
This is so weird. No, it's just that everything has been so weird lately.
Yang Mei's sudden death, the Qing Gang's fighting...
It is obvious that someone is trying to break the power structure in Shanghai.
Was it intentional or unintentional?
Who on earth is it?
At this time, Qiao Shuxin's mind became increasingly confused, and a subtle anxiety flashed in his eyes.
"It's time to eat."
At this time, the woman in the kitchen walked up to the two of them with food on her face full of happiness.
"You two should eat first, don't talk about work at home."
The woman, wearing an apron and resting her chin on one hand, quietly served two people who were eating voraciously, with a great sense of accomplishment.
Suddenly she took out a stack of black and white photos from a drawer beside her and looked at Qiao Shuxin with joy.
Qiao Shuxin caught sight of her elder sister's actions out of the corner of her eye and her heart tightened.
It’s over, here it comes again.
"Shuxin, you will be working in the Municipal Bureau soon. Your qualifications are not bad, and you are not a child anymore. These are the girls I asked Sister Wang from the grocery store to introduce to you. See if there is any one you like."
At this time, Qiao Shuxin felt a little embarrassed and his eyes couldn't help but move to the side.
Damn Sister Wang, why do you have to start a side business when you can just run the grocery store?
On the other hand, Xiao Wuzi excitedly stood up with his bowl and walked to the woman.
"Mom, aren't you embarrassing my uncle?
If you want to do this, show me the photos, or let me choose."
The woman raised her eyebrows and slapped away Xiao Wuzi's hand that was reaching for the photo, "You can't do it. Wait another two years. Solve your uncle's problem first."
Xiao Wuzi said uninterestedly: "I didn't ask you to choose for me, I just want to choose an aunt for myself?"
"Don't give me that. You are so young, but you are thinking about these nonsense. You should focus on your work and make your wallet full of money."
"I really just want to choose an aunt for myself," Xiao Wuzi muttered aggrievedly.
After dealing with Xiao Wuzi, the woman looked at Qiao Shuxin again, "Shuxin, I'm talking to you. Look, the girls are all very good."
"Well, sister, this tiger skin pepper is delicious. Your cooking skills have improved a lot."
The woman was very angry and roared: "You...are you listening to me anymore?"
......
On the streets of the International Settlement, Chen Yan was wandering alone, bored, smoking one cigarette after another.
I have been in Shanghai for almost a week, and there has been no progress in the mission. Instead, troubles have come one after another.
He was feeling a little depressed at the moment, but he couldn't tell anyone about it.
"How can I break this impasse?" Chen Yan muttered helplessly as he looked at the starry sky.
Looking at the bright lights and revelry in the concession, he actually missed the days in Heiyun Village.
At this time, I would either drink with my buddies and brag, or I would be busy with work. In short, everything would be under my control, not as helpless as it is now.
A peaceful and peaceful life is also a beautiful life.
At this moment, a thought suddenly occurred to him.
"There's no other way. It looks like I have to ask Tang Caiying for help. Although we parted on bad terms last time, I can only count on this woman for now."
He now regretted that he had made things so awkward with Tang Caiying, but there was nothing he could do about it. However, even if he begged her humbly, it would be impossible for her to do it because of her pride.
"It would be better if..."
At this moment, he looked at the sky with firm eyes.
"If the soft approach doesn't work, then let's just use the hard approach.
This woman is not a good person either. If you can't do anything, just scare her and see how she responds.
If it doesn’t work, I will kidnap her and take her out of Shanghai. I want to see if she will behave herself.”
