I really don't want to be an official if I transmigrate into Qi Tongwei's life.

Chapter 227 The Hidden Drug Lord

"Thank you, Mr. Huang."

Qi Tongwei pulled out a chair and sat down, with Lan Ying and Wu Dali standing behind him, like two bodyguards on either side.

"Mr. Huang, may I trouble you for a moment? You know Bai Jie from the Golden Phoenix Nightclub, right?"

"Officer, I know Miss Bai."

Huang Sen adjusted his glasses, his expression unchanged. He didn't hide anything; he had spent a lot of money on Bai Jie and was very sorry that she was killed. It was truly a case of beauty being short-lived.

Seeing Huang Sen's cooperation, Qi Tongwei felt much more at ease. "Mr. Huang, you must have heard about Bai Jie's situation. Do you still have the receipt for the Cartier watch you gave Bai Jie? We'd like to check the model number of that watch."

Huang Sen opened the drawer and took out a receipt with the Cartier watch model number written on it.

"Officer, I hope you can catch Miss Bai's killer soon, thank you."

Qi Tongwei was stunned for a moment. He thought Huang Sen might deliberately say that the Cartier watch was fake because he was worried about trouble. He didn't expect Huang Sen to be so straightforward.

"Thank you, Mr. Huang. The police will definitely catch the murderer and bring justice to Bai Jie. We won't bother you any longer; you can continue with your work."

"Take care, officer."

After Qi Tongwei left, Huang Sen dialed Qiu Jinkun's number.

"Boss Qiu, the policeman you mentioned just came to investigate Miss Bai's matter."

The criminal investigation team has arrested Wu Yong, and the case is basically solved. It will no longer implicate the Golden Phoenix Nightclub. Qiu Jinkun is still holding a grudge and must teach Qi Tongwei a lesson.

"Mr. Huang, what's that kid up to? Could it be that he's discovered something?"

Huang Sen laughed heartily, "Boss Qiu, you're being too sensitive. Our transactions have always been airtight. What kind of power can a mere policeman have? That kid's here to find out what model of watch I gave Miss Bai."

Qiu Jinkun said anxiously, "President Huang, did you tell that kid?"

Huang Sen's face was sinister, as if everything was perfectly planned. "Boss Qiu, let that kid investigate slowly. The more he's bogged down in Miss Bai's case, the smoother our deal will go."

Qiu Jinkun suddenly realized, "President Huang, that's a brilliant move!"

Eastern Guangdong was at the forefront of reform and opening up, and it was also close to Hong Kong, so trade and smuggling were very large. Huang Sen transported drugs from Hong Kong under the guise of a legitimate company, and Qiu Jinkun was one of his clients.

After leaving the building and returning to the car, Lan Ying said with a puzzled look, "Chief Qi, this Hong Kong boss seemed to know we were here to investigate; there's something about him I can't quite put my finger on."

Qi Tongwei laughed and said, "This Mr. Huang seems less arrogant and conceited; he's actually quite approachable. After all, he's from Hong Kong."

Lan Ying immediately understood. "Chief Qi, you're right. Hong Kong people on the mainland have always considered themselves superior, which is indeed somewhat abnormal."

Wu Dali was puzzled. "We're police officers, there's nothing wrong with being polite, isn't there?"

Qi Tongwei chuckled, "That's true. We can't judge people with prejudice. Maybe President Huang was beaten up by the police."

Lan Ying was speechless. We are the people's police. There are some bad apples mixed in, but most of us are good.

The three arrived at the crime scene, examined it, but found no new clues. However, they took a photo of the male resident on the same floor, intending to show it to Wu Yong for identification.

Back at the provincial department, Chen Shunjun found Qi Tongwei. "Chief Qi, Kang Haitao's lawyer is here again. He wants to apply for a reduction in his detention time, citing the possibility of triggering bipolar disorder."

Qi Tongwei flatly refused, "No, Chief Chen, have his lawyer go back and tell Kang Yaozong that the Qing Dynasty is long gone, this is a new society, and the emperor is subject to the same laws as commoners."

Chen Shunjun was in a dilemma because Kang Yaozong had used his connections at higher levels to exert pressure. Li Jitao covered his ears and directly passed the buck to Qi Tongwei.

"Chief Qi, you should consider this: Kang Haitao's bipolar disorder and his detention are indeed a potential problem."

Qi Tongwei found it amusing; leaving a mentally ill person out in public would be dangerous. "Chief Chen, I know you're thorough, but I absolutely have to teach this Kang Haitao a lesson."

Chen Shunjun wasn't afraid of Kang Yaozong, but he was worried that Qi Tongwei had offended too many people and would invite retaliation.

"Chief Qi, the mental hospital has checked. Kang Haitao's diagnosis report was issued by several experts and professors, and so far no problems have been found."

"We also contacted the victim Xu Jiajia's father, but he denies the diagnosis report and has been appealing, but the appeals have all been rejected by the court."

Qi Tongwei didn't believe there was nothing fishy going on. If a rich man's son raped and murdered someone, the rich man would probably try every possible method to save his son, even if it meant spending money to avoid further trouble.

"Thank you for your hard work, Chief Chen. Let's leave this matter at that for now. We can't let Kang Haitao go. Even if he has a manic episode in detention, he shouldn't be able to rape a man."

Chen Shunjun had nothing to say. Since Li Jitao did not intervene, it meant that he had obtained Director Ye's permission. He couldn't be happier to lock Kang Haitao up. A rapist and murderer was living a life of luxury outside, while a young female college student died tragically, and her parents lived in pain for the rest of their lives. Was that fair?

"Alright, Qi Zhi, you go ahead with your work."

Attorney Yang was once again met with a cold shoulder. He never imagined that it would become so difficult for Kang Yaozong's son to get out of the detention center.

"Mr. Kang, the police still refuse to grant bail."

Inside the villa, Kang Yaozong was so angry he almost smashed the phone. He had contacted not only city leaders but also provincial leaders, yet he still couldn't get his son out. It was unbelievable. Damn it, he was so eager to collect money, but he couldn't even handle this little thing.

Kang Haitao's mother, Wang Xiue, made a huge scene at home, shouting, "Kang Yaozong, how can my son stay in a place like a detention center? You must take him home today!"

Wang Xiue was Kang Yaozong's first wife. She was already old and faded, but she did not divorce him in order to maintain a good reputation. In fact, she had several illegitimate children outside the marriage. She kept her wife at home while having affairs on the outside.

Kang Yaozong was furious. "What's all the fuss about? That bastard has caused so much trouble since he was a kid, and it's all because you spoiled him!"

"Kang Yaozong, do you have any conscience? I bore you children, and you're always out there, never caring about the family. Now that you have money, you despise my son. Those bastards from those other women, who knows if they're even yours?"

Wang Xiue is a rural woman with little education; when she argues, she becomes a shrew and resorts to vulgar language.

Kang Yaozong was extremely troubled. Over the years, the mother and son had not changed at all. As a native of eastern Guangdong, he favored sons over daughters, so he had let his son run wild all these years, since he had money and connections and could solve anything.

"You and your son are both fucking crazy."

Unable to afford to offend them, Kang Yaozong was so angry that he left home. In any case, the other homes he lived in were more comfortable than this one.
