After all, Li Xiao is a high-achieving student among the bastards, and some casual remarks are not his pretentious gestures.

To a certain extent, Li Xiao is actually lonely, because he can eat on the road, and his general cultural level is not too high. Even his favorite head horse, Zhang Feng, only has the ruthlessness in him, but he does not have the wisdom in him.

The third child quickly responded: "Gotcha! ”

He staggered and ran out the door.

Five minutes later, a flower face with a thick layer of gauze on his left hand came to Li Xiao's ward.

"Lord Xiao!" Hua Mian leaned forward slightly and called out respectfully.

Li Xiao gestured with his eyes: "Sit." ”

"Huh!" Hua Mian carefully sat on the escort bed on Li Xiao's left side, saying that he was sitting, but he was almost the same as Zamabu. The buttocks were slightly pressed against the edge of the companion bed, cramped and uneasy.

In the first battle of the Nameless Teahouse, the entire left palm of the flower face was pierced, and more than 70% of the function was lost. Five of the temporary staff in Li Xiao's company died, and the seven or eight outlaws on both sides were killed.

The owl arranged himself in such an important position with less money and more money, but at the critical moment, he actually dropped the chain, and he really had no face to face his eldest brother.

"Just now, the sub-director Li Yuan transferred from the General Administration of Public Security came, and he asked for an explanation." Li Xiao looked at the flower-faced eyes and said in a calm tone.

Hua Mian didn't think about it, and replied directly: "Master, I'll go." ”

Li Xiao shook his head and said, "That's not what I meant. You, I won't hand it over under any circumstances, and during this crackdown, you'll have to eat guns if you go in. ”

"That's?" There was a look of gratitude in the eyes of the flower face, and there was a hint of doubt.

"He asked us to hand over forty people to take responsibility for our actions that day."

"That can't be!" The face that was timid in front of Li Xiao showed a rare crispness. "We rely on this name in the west of the city, and we want to sell our own people, so what will the people on the road say about us after that? If you want to explain that I can go, it is impossible to hand over to the forty person! ”

"It's definitely impossible to hand over the forty person, but the person must pay it, and we really have to give this explanation." Li Xiao let out a rare sigh and said with some weakness.

"Why?" The third child on the side and Hua Mian asked almost at the same time.

"Isn't it enough to explain that three days have passed since the accident, and the District Mayor Luo and the District Council have not given us any news?"

Li Xiao gradually guided the two and said.

"There are countless people who can come to the west of the city to be the head of the security bureau, why did you call a so-called hero director in the north of the city to come over?"

The old Sanhua face, who gradually put himself in his position, also had a trace of doubt in his heart, and began to seriously think about Li Xiao's question.

"What's wrong with what he Li Yuan said? It turned out that the director of the security bureau who came to the west of the city to serve had to come to me! You two have been with me for a lot of years, have you ever seen such a tough security bureau chief in front of me? ”

"Is it the people above who are going to move us?" The flower face that was the first to react asked with a somewhat ugly face.

"It's not! Brother, I'm a little unconvinced! The third child glanced at the flower face, looked at Li Xiao and said.

"We're all the injured parties in this matter, aren't we? People rushed to the door of the teahouse for some reason, and grabbed us and clicked it. It is equivalent to saying that if people clean us up, we deserve it, but if we fight back, we will have to be held responsible? ”

Logically speaking, the third child's point of view is not untenable, in fact, it is not only in Li Xiao's matter. Even before the end of the world, the boundaries of self-preservation among ordinary people were very vague, and there was no official conclusion on what could and could not be done.

Now, this perhaps lame excuse has become justified. There was a fierce exchange of fire in a closed teahouse, and the owner of the teahouse had nothing to do with it, and the child would not believe it!

"Huh." Li Xiao did not answer positively.

"And brother, if this matter is really put on the table, we are actually reasonable, right? Those characters with heads and faces in the west of the store, they stood up and said a few words casually, aren't everything clear? The third child rarely used his brain and thought about the problem differently.

But... What he wants, why doesn't Li Xiao know?

Li Xiao did not receive any phone calls from the mayor of Chengxiluo or the senior members of the district council on the night of the accident, which already made him very suspicious.

And what happened next really confirmed his conjecture, which made District Mayor Luo, who is equivalent to the mayor of a prefecture-level city, dare not talk to him. The identity of the person behind him is self-evident.

With the dismissal of the director of the Public Security Bureau, Li Yuan took over, and then he was hospitalized for three days, Li Yuan made these moves. Everything is pointed at his head.

In such a grim situation, expect some vested interests in the west of the city to take risks that are not necessary for them? Don't be stupid, you can be with thousands of rich and noble, it's really a big disaster, who doesn't fly separately?

Get rid of Li Xiao who cut the cake in the west of the city, and in a few years, there will be people who will also be able to play with this plate, and these vested interests can also gather in such a nameless teahouse again, and they will earn money comfortably.

As long as the official authority in the west of the city remains, it doesn't matter who distributes the benefits.

And it is really impossible to expect them to come forward for such an insignificant person, and risk leading themselves and the family behind them into a path of no return.

"In politics. In the face of governance tools, all forces are bullshit. Li Xiao said this with some sighs, and he didn't know whether to answer the words of the third child or to himself.

There was silence for a while.

"What do you mean?" Flower Face asked tentatively.

"Let them draw lots, and go to ten people to give the officer. Fang Yi explained. Even if Li Xiao had a calm face on his face, the old Sanhua face beside him could clearly feel his anger.

"But—" Flowerface gritted and tried to explain something.

Li Xiao directly interrupted: "I know. Some things take years to build, but it only takes a moment to destroy them..."

Speaking of this, Li Xiao stopped talking and did not speak.

At this point, there is no room for negotiation. In fact, Hua Yan knows very well that although he seems to be difficult to do, compared with Li Xiao, who is the eldest brother, the pressure he bears must be ten times and a hundred times that of himself.

"Master, then I'm out."

Even if Hua Mian still has a lot to say, he can only hold it all in his heart. is as strong as Li Xiao, the underground leader in the west of the city, he also has to bow his head when he should bow his head, let alone himself?

"Wait!" Li Xiao stopped Hua Mian, who was just about to go out, and Hua Mian immediately stood up and looked back at Li Xiao.

"After a while, I don't have a suitable candidate here for the suburban levy. Can you do it? ”

Hua was stunned for a moment, and quickly responded: "Okay!" ”

"Okay! There you go! Li Xiao waved his hand and signaled that Hua Yan could leave.

This time, Hua Mian no longer hesitated and walked away.
