Chapter 79: Fatal Forty-Eight Hours
Among the three giants of Jixiang Street, Ji Longtian is the youngest, less than forty years old, and he is also the most impulsive and the most temperamental. Compared with Hua Tianan, who is invisible, Ji Longtian does not seem calm enough. But it is precisely because of his impulsiveness and clean style that he has achieved his current status.
Zhuo Lefeng didn't want to have a head-on conflict with Ji Longtian, but he wouldn't admit it at this moment. Looking at the people gathered around, Zhuo Lefeng snorted, leaned back comfortably on the chair, his feet were still on his legs, and said: "Now that it is a society under the rule of law, you still play the same game on the rivers and lakes, and you are not afraid of people's jokes?" ”
"How to speak! You kid just don't clean up! Ji Longtian was too lazy to be verbose, and said, "Give me a lesson for this kid first." ”
Zhang Wenbao saw that the situation was not good, and finally couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "Don't don't, Mr. Ji!" This kid speaks in this style, and besides, he is indeed talking about things, and he doesn't mean anything else! ”
Ji Long Tiandao: "What did he say? The special code has been talking for so long, what is the point? ”
"And what do you want to hear?" Zhuo Lefeng also stood up and said, "Just because there was a bag of corpses in my parents' store, you are going to trouble our family?" If you really want to find out about this, shouldn't you wait for the police to report it first? Are you so anxious to find a scapegoat, do you have a ghost in your heart? ”
Ji Longtian said anxiously: "Zhuo Lefeng, what do you mean by this?" Do you want to say that Mr. An's death has something to do with us, me, our brothers from Jixiang Street all take care of each other and never stab each other in the back. You dare to say that, you are still not from Jixiang Street! ”
Hua Tianan also followed: "Zhuo Lefeng, what you said is indeed inappropriate. Who has a ghost in their heart? Are you trying to say that there are ghosts in the hearts of those of us here? Mr. Ji and I have known Mr. An for decades, with the relationship between the three of us, how could we do that kind of thing to Mr. An! ”
"Okay, if you don't have a ghost in your heart, the last thing you should do now is to ask me about my teacher. Because I am more anxious than you are to find the murderer as soon as possible. And if you ask me about my teachers, especially my parents, it will distract me and prevent me from finding out the truth as soon as possible. ”
Hua Tianan said: "So, you have been investigating this case?" ”
"Of course!" Zhuo Lefeng's mind is very clear, he has to be neither arrogant nor humble to these people, otherwise he will be absolutely passive. What's more, he wasn't a murderer in the first place, so he shouldn't be submissive. Not to mention that these people don't know how to do it, even if they do, Zhuo Lefeng has already thought of countermeasures.
Ji Longtian was impulsive, but with Hua Tianan in charge, Zhang Wenbao confessed to Zhuo Lefeng before, saying that today's morning tea was to put pressure on Zhuo Lefeng, and he didn't really want Zhuo Lefeng to see blood, so Zhuo Lefeng also needed momentum.
Since it comes to this, Zhuo Lefeng has to make it even clearer: "The reason why the police are reluctant to release the details of the deceased is because of the special identity of the deceased. It is precisely because the details have not been released that the police have not come to Jixiang Street to publicly look for you. But as Mr. Hua said, once the police can only announce the details of the corpse mutilation case in advance because of public opinion from the outside world, then a comprehensive investigation will be conducted on you. An Beiguang's death is obviously not that simple. And if you have to conduct a public investigation, what will happen after that, have you ever thought about it? ”
"Think...... What do you think? The two words behind Ji Longtian are a little weaker, he is not a brainless person, he should understand the meaning of Zhuo Lefeng's words.
Jixiang Street itself is a problem block in Anjing City, and if An Beiguang, one of the three giants, really died because of infighting, then wouldn't Jixiang Street be torn apart and fight to the bottom.
Hua Tianan's brows also locked, and he also thought that the police's delay in releasing the details of the corpse shredding case was actually beneficial to Jixiang Street, especially him and Ji Longtian. And now that the situation is already like this, next, once Hua Tianan and Ji Longtian are publicly investigated by the police, An Beiguang's subordinates will inevitably react.
Zhuo Lefeng saw that the two people on the other side hesitated, and continued: "There is obviously someone behind this who is stirring up trouble, not only to lead the trouble to me, but also to hope that the matter on Jixiang Street will get bigger and bigger." Several of them are people who have seen strong winds and waves and have seen a lot, can't you see this trick? Just last night, on Jixiang Street, two masked knife-wielding men sneak attacked and plotted against me, if it wasn't for me running fast, I'm afraid I would have gone to see An Beiguang. ”
Taking off his clothes, Zhuo Lefeng showed the knife wound on his back to everyone. The wound that was slightly treated last night has not yet fully healed, and the marks on it are clearly visible.
Zhang Wenbao looked carefully, and taking advantage of this opportunity, he also deliberately interjected: "Damn, if you didn't run fast, you would have already seen the bones!" That man really wants your life! ”
Zhuo Lefeng took the opportunity to say: "No matter who arranged those two people last night, there is only one result, that is, this matter will expand, and it will become more and more difficult to end." Ladies and gentlemen, I repeat that neither my parents nor I have killed anyone. And I, like you, are desperate to know the truth. But if the resistance around me continues, not only will I not be able to find out the truth, but it will also complicate the situation. If you really want to know the answer, and don't want to get yourself into the maelstrom of public opinion because of this, don't let your men harass me and my parents anymore. Please give me time, I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation! ”
This remark was loud, and it also made Hua Tianan and Ji Longtian have to think. The situation is indeed not as simple as they imagined, and the police have not yet announced the results in detail, but it is actually beneficial to Jixiang Street. And once the details are announced, the pressure of public opinion will indeed be transferred to Hua Tianan and Ji Longtian.
Ji Longtian, who was still babbling at first, snorted and sat down again, he waved his hand, signaling the horses behind him to disperse. Hua Tianan also sat down, and saw that Park Zhenghui was still crying next to him, he helped put a basket of xiaolongbao next to him, turned around and whispered to Ji Longtian: "Mr. Ji, although this kid's attitude is not good, it is not unreasonable." Although you and I have a clear conscience, outsiders don't think so. If Mr. An is really dead, someone will inevitably suspect us. We will not be reluctant to give up on Zhuo Lefeng, but it will indeed make people feel that they are looking for a scapegoat. ”
Ji Longtian's face flushed, and he held back for a long time and said: "I said Lao Hua, you can't listen to that kid's nonsense." He's getting himself out, that's why he's talking about it. ”
"It's not that simple for him to get out!" Hua Tianan patted Ji Longtian on the shoulder and said, "Didn't he just say that he was also investigating this matter." Well, we'll wait for his satisfactory answer. But we're not going to wait forever. ”
"It's a deadline again?" Anyway, Zhuo Lefeng was used to it, so he didn't care, "Okay, you say, let me give an answer in a few days." ”
Hua Tianan smiled and said, "Seeing that you are so confident, it might as well be for two days!" ”
"Two days?" Zhang Wenbao was taken aback, but he didn't dare to directly reply to his boss, so he could only cast sympathetic glances at Zhuo Lefeng.
It was Zhuo Lefeng, he didn't flinch, but he also knew that the two days were indeed tight.
Seeing that Zhuo Lefeng didn't respond directly, Ji Long Tian said: "What? Didn't you swear to give us a satisfactory answer just now, why are you dumb now? Boy, don't talk too much, be careful not to leave yourself a way back......"
Zhuo Lefeng also snorted, raised his head and said, "Two days is two days!" Today is the 29th, before noon on the 1st, if the police don't give you an explanation, I will give you an answer myself. ”
Ji Longtian said viciously: "You said this yourself, we didn't force you!" ”
"Whether you force me or not, everyone knows it." Zhuo Lefeng picked up a cup of tea and said, "Replace wine with tea, I will do it first as a respect, but I also ask a few bosses to keep their promises, before noon on the first day, I don't want anyone to continue to harass me and my family." ”
Hua Tianan said first: "Don't worry about this, I will let Wenbao greet everyone." If someone continues to harass you and your family, Wenbao will deal with it. By the way, I will also set up a table in this place at noon on the first day, and I will wait for you to come and give us a satisfactory answer. But if I can't wait for your person or an answer at noon on the first day, then we have to follow the rules. Mr. Ji, what do you think! ”
"No problem, I will also say hello to my people, and before noon on the first day, I will hold back my anger." Ji Longtian looked at Zhuo Lefeng viciously and said, "If you dare to play tricks, boy, I guarantee that you won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”
Zhuo Lefeng didn't bother to pay attention to it, and continued to look at Park Zhenghui.
The other two of the three bigwigs have already expressed their positions, and now that An Beiguang has basically announced his death, someone on An Beiguang's side must also give a promise. But Park Zhenghui has been crying, and she has only heard these people talking, and she has never said anything. At this time, everyone was waiting for her to speak, but she cried even harder.
It was Hua Tianan who soothed: "Brother and sister, you also heard what Zhuo Lefeng said just now." Mr. Hua, how do you arrange it? ”
Park Zhenghui shook his head and said: "You also know that Beiguang has never let me meddle in his business, so I can't say anything about his affairs, how can you make me promise!" ”
Hua Tianan took a deep breath and said, "Mr. An has not been here for the past two days, and who is taking care of Mr. An's affairs." ”
"I think it's Xiao Teng! In the days when Beiguang was away, Xiao Teng was busy inside and out. Originally, I was going to let him come with me today, but he still had a lot of things to deal with for Beiguang, so I had to come by myself. ”
"Xiao Teng?" Hua Tianan sighed, "You mean Mr. An's assistant Teng Tianhua." Well, I'm familiar with this person. In this way, after the morning tea, we will go to Mr. An's office together, and by the way, Mr. Ji and I will talk to Teng Tianhua. ”
"That's the best!" Park Jung Hye nodded and continued to sob.
Now that the three parties have expressed their positions, in fact, Zhuo Lefeng has no way out. If the answer cannot be given before noon on the first day, the rules of the rivers and lakes are obviously extremely unfavorable to Zhuo Lefeng.
This morning tea shouldn't have been eaten by Zhuo Lefeng in the first place, so he didn't plan to eat it. Now that the words have been made clear, he will not stop, and directly said goodbye, turned around and left the Jixiang Teahouse.
Zhang Wenbao looked at his boss's face, and after getting a nod and a hint, he hurriedly followed!
