Chapter 165: No Way Back (Part II)
Just when Director Huo was about to say something, he heard a person walking towards him behind him, and when he looked back, he saw who that person was not from Xinyue.
From Xin Yue spoke before Huo Zike could speak, "Director Huo, I don't think it's the time to get angry and curse here, it is imperative to find out the real cause of Mo Xi's death as soon as possible, otherwise don't say it's Captain Xue, even you, the director, won't be able to eat and walk around." After all, the Provincial Public Security Department appointed me as the criminal psychological consultant of the police force until now, and I have not removed me from my position, so I have this obligation and this responsibility to participate in this case. If Director Huo feels that I am not suitable to participate in this case, you can apply to the Provincial Public Security Department to remove me from the position of consultant, but before that, I have the right to participate in any criminal case in Lanzhou City as long as I want,"
Xue Mufeng stood aside and couldn't believe that Cong Xinyue would actually help herself turn the spearhead of Director Huo to herself, which made Xue Mufeng's heart rise even more admiration for Cong Xinyue.
"Cong Xinyue, now is not the time for the head of Luo Qifeng, you'd better figure out the situation, and as far as your relationship with Moxie is concerned, do you think you are suitable to participate in this case?" Huo Zike was blocked by Cong Xinyue's words and didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only push back Cong Xinyue's words with force.
Seeing Huo Zike's poor words, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Director Huo, I said it, if you think that I am not suitable to stay here from Xin Yue, you can apply to the leaders of the provincial department, this is your right, but before my dismissal order comes down, the criminal police team in Lanzhou City is where I work, and no one has the right to drive me away,"
Xue Mufeng felt that Cong Xinyue's words were a bit excessive, he was afraid that Director Huo would really drive Cong Xinyue away, so he wanted to come forward to reconcile, "Cong Xinyue, you calm down, Mo Xi died for no reason in the detention room of the criminal police team, I can't escape the blame as the captain, it is normal for the director to say that I have two sentences, I asked you to assist our police force to do things out of your professional considerations, not out of any personal emotional factors, and you don't need to be so sharp,"
"Don't worry, Captain Xue, no matter what the reason is, I will help you find out the real cause of Mo Xi's death, and I will also help you find Zhu Yi," Xin Yue naturally understood the meaning of Xue Mufeng's words, so her tone eased a lot, but although she said this to Xue Mufeng, her eyes were staring at Huo Zike motionless.
"Just you?" Huo Zike didn't believe that Cong Xinyue had the ability to solve the two most difficult cases at present.
"I never said anything I couldn't do from Xin Yue, and there were not a few cases I helped Liang Ze solve before, although you were not the director at the time, you should have understood, so if I said that I could crack it, I would definitely be able to solve it," Xin Yue stared at Huo Zike with cold and arrogant eyes, although he was not as tall as Huo Zike, he still gave people a feeling of looking at Huo Zike condescendingly.
"You may have been able to do it before, but now, I don't think you may be able to," Huo Zike turned his head and no longer looked at Cong Xinyue, but looked at the rest of the police hall, pretending to be very disdainful.
"Director Huo," Xin Yue saw that Huo Zike was unwilling to look at him, and he was even more sure that Huo Zike didn't feel that he was incapable of solving the case, but simply didn't want to let himself participate in the work of the police force, so Xin Yue felt that Huo Zike should be provoked, "Why don't you look at me and talk, your eyes wander away from each other, either it shows that you are weak or it shows that you are very anxious now, Captain Xue and I met for the first time before, when I first met him, he didn't dare to look at me when he talked to me, and kept wandering,"
"Oh?" As soon as Huo Zike heard this, he subconsciously looked at Xue Mufeng, but Xue Mufeng didn't look at him, but just nodded slightly in agreement with Cong Xinyue.
"Which one is Director Huo?" Cong Xinyue still stared at Huo Zike with sharp eyes, "I think Director Huo is the former, and you are actually not confident in what you just said, so you will subconsciously avoid my gaze." Then I can understand that Commissioner Fok is not actually questioning my professionalism, but simply wants to reject me, and simply does not want me to stay in the police force, right? ”
Huo Zike was told what he thought in his heart from Xin Yue, and his face suddenly became angry, but he also knew that he couldn't be angry at this time, otherwise he would be in Xin Yue's arms. Huo Zike could only hold back the anger in his heart and keep his composure and speak, "This is purely your own conjecture, there is no basis at all, why should I refuse you to participate in the work of the police force?" If you have this ability, you can help the police force improve the crime solving rate, of course I can't ask for it, but first of all, the premise is that you have this ability,"
Cong Xinyue pursed her lips and smiled coldly, "Director Huo, when I worked in the FBI before, I met many opponents and strong enemies, many of them didn't like me, but they never denied my ability, and you are the first person who both dislikes me and questions my ability, I can tolerate a person from Xin Yue who doesn't like or even hate me, but I must not tolerate someone questioning my ability,"
"And what do you want?" Huo Zike snorted coldly.
"How? Director Huo dares to bet with me, "Cong Xinyue's expression was arrogant, her eyes were cold, and her tone was aggressive.
"Bet on what?" Director Huo felt a hint of danger from Xin Yue's words.
"Bet on your position as director, do you dare?" Xin Yue smiled coldly on her face, and her eyes also flashed with a smile.
"What do you mean?" Huo Zike suddenly regretted it a little, he felt that Cong Xinyue would definitely propose a gamble that he couldn't accept, and he had no way to refuse now.
"Bet with me on your position as the director, in a month's time, if I find the real cause of Moxi's death from Xin Yue, find Zhu Yi, and you resign yourself, if I can't do it, I will automatically disappear from Xin Yue, and I will not step into the police force for half a step, and let you Director Huo dispose of it, how about it?" From Xin Yue's eyes staring at Huo Zike extremely arrogantly, she just wanted to force Huo Zike to have no way out. How Huo Zike forced Moxi before, forcing him to have no way out, and now he has to double the amount to Huo Zike, so that he can also feel what it is like to be forced to have no way out.
Huo Zike didn't know how to answer for a while, he turned his head to look at Xue Mufeng, but Xue Mufeng lowered his head the next second when he looked at him, and he didn't want to look at him at all.
And Huo Zike turned his head to look around, everyone looked at him silently, even the vice captain Xiao Wenjie was sitting there looking like he was watching a good show. Huo Zike finally realized a problem, these people are all watching, waiting, to see if they will back down, to see if they will lose to Cong Xinyue.
Under that strange silence, Huo Zike was silent for a long time, but he didn't wait for anyone's round, he knew that he had no way back. Huo Zike finally raised his head slowly, looked at Cong Xinyue, and almost gritted his teeth and said those words, "Okay, I'll bet with you,"
