Chapter 482: The Backbone

Cocke, shaking her head, pulled an armchair from the bookshelf, and sat across from her desk.

Put your legs together.

Looking at his father.

"What does the bureau say? Now that things have come to this, what are you going to do next? โ€

"It's a trap, someone has set up a game for me-"

Dan Minming was silent for a short while.

The middle-aged man finally spoke hoarsely.

He doesn't want to face life head-on, he tries to escape from himself but can't.

The numbness in his mind slowly faded under his daughter's forced gaze, and his voice began to carry outright remorse and outright trauma.

"From the moment the task force was just established, Brother Hao already knew the news. I don't even doubt that he would have had countless opportunities to pull me off the horse, but he chose the moment when the operation was about to begin, and he did it on purpose! He just watched silently in the shadows as we set up a stage and sang there, watching us rehearse one by one, and rehearse again and again. โ€

Inspector Dan's palm was spread out, and he smiled wryly and made an explosive gesture.

As a result, a second before the curtain opened. Rumble! They blew up the stage. This is a mockery, but also a demonstration. โ€

Dan Minming slammed angrily and slammed his palm on the table.

"And those moths in the police station, they should have broken their bones and scattered ashes, and they should not die well, I knew that they were one by one-"

Ding Ding Ding โ€“

Kou tossed the brass shell she had just picked up from the ground into the enamel jar on the table.

She closed the lid of the cup and covered it with both hands, shaking it vigorously with a cold face.

Bullet casings bounced in enamel cups with a bell-like frenzied sound.

interrupted Inspector Dan's angry voice.

"Enough! That's enough, father, it's over, don't say that. โ€

Shut up when you see Dad.

Expressionless, Kou threw the enamel cup back on the table.

"Don't be like a resentful woman, talking about what you know how to do. There are no ifs in the world, and time will not be turned back, and the curse of your incompetence here is ruthless, and it makes no sense to crush anyone to ashes. I don't want to hear it either. โ€

"Coco, you're too young to understand what I've lost."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, "This is too cruel." โ€

"Don't think of me as a little kid who hasn't grown up." Coco said with a cold face, "Dad, you want to soar into the sky, you don't succeed, you lose, it's as simple as that." If you lose, you have to admit it, this is the rule of the game. You don't have the ability to break the rules, and you don't have the courage to flip the table. โ€

"Now that you have figured it out that you don't want to go to Brother Hao with a pistol to fight hard, then please stop here for this part of remembering the failure."

"It's over, Dan Minming, your officialdom life is over."

Coco pursed her lips, her voice cold and a little cruel.

"You're just a little person now, and Brother Hao is no longer a topic you should care about. You have failed, and you have to accept that whether you want it or not. You're no longer a high-ranking police officer, understand? โ€

Coco looked directly at her father.

Dan Minming slowly let go of his clenched fist and lowered his head in a dejected manner.

"Understand? Answer me out loud. Kou asked in a child-like tone.

Dan Minming was in a trance for an instant.

He was surprised.

Perhaps, he never really knew about his daughter.

In the eyes of most fathers, they think that their daughters will never grow up.

In Dan Minming's heart, her daughter is just a little crazy little girl.

Like those "debauched" Western female stars, Kou likes to wear leather miniskirts, sing rock songs at school dances, cut holes in the knees of her pants with scissors in her school uniform, wear metal skull earrings, and skateboard...... These "immoral" behaviors made the old-fashioned and traditional Dan Daddy think of it, so he pinched his scalp and felt high blood pressure.

Extraordinarily excessive.

Kou Ko is not like those shameless girls in schools of the same age, who are entangled with boys.

Ms. Koukou......

People and boys, girls and children are there to pull the latcher and I am entangled!

Bad morals, bad morals!

Which of these is what a mature and dignified daughter's family should do!

Dan Minming used to be in the unit, and he complained to his secretary and colleagues about how worried he was about this daughter.

When I think about it, I feel that my head is big, and I don't know how I can marry a good family in the future.

Of course.

Dan Minming didn't think about taking his daughter to marry or anything.

Just this one girl, take it out to engage in a political marriage or something, Officer Dan is reluctant.

He just thought that his daughter was a girl who had to live well under the protection of her own wings all her life.

is a little princess with a personality that jumps out of the world and does not eat the fireworks of the world.

So it doesn't matter.

Over the years, Coco has really been like a little princess, as if she doesn't need to worry about the trivial things of firewood, rice, oil and salt for the rest of her life.

Her father was a high-ranking official in Yangon, with countless heavily armed guns at his disposal.

Her stepmother is also a personable and well-behaved lady at various social balls.

Miss Coco's family background is not as good as that of Miss Sakai.

But it's not at all that the daughter of a small gold shop owner like Mona can be qualified to be compared.

Even among private international schools like Dulwich, they are among the best.

In her daughter's life, Dan Minming only hopes that the other party will make her happy, which is enough.

But at this moment, there has been a great change.

His mind was a mess and he was disheartened.

The wife is crying and crying, and the six gods have no master.

In this home,

Only Coco is strong and frightening.

She took off her silver earrings, no longer laughing, no more chirping, as if she had grown up overnight.

It also seemed like overnight.

The daughter is the only adult who can make up her mind.

Mom and Dad are the little ones who need to be taken care of.

If it weren't for the changes in life.

Officer Dan found that he might not realize it for the rest of his life - his daughter was a much stronger and more powerful person than him in his bones.

He was the head of the place that everyone feared, and he was a servant before he traveled.

However, all his strength stems from the government offices behind him, from the rank and seal on his shoulders.

After taking off the khaki police inspector's uniform.

He has become a weak middle-aged man with a small belly and is at a loss in the face of life, as powerless and fragile as thousands of ordinary people in this city.

The girl came out of her pink boudoir.

After leaving the piano, jewelry, and the king-size Simmons bed, she is still the cool, sassy Miss Coco.

It doesn't matter if the opponent is Miss Sakai or Brother Hao.

Is it love or life.

She was equally brave.

"I ...... I understand. โ€

Officer Dan was not angry at his daughter's rudeness, and after a long silence, he replied in a deep, mournful voice.

He doesn't dwell on failure anymore.

He was just very depressed and helpless.

"Now, I ask you, and you answer."

Coco said coldly.

"I asked you what the bureau said, I didn't want to hear you summarize your failures, I wanted to know, how are you going to be dealt with? Dereliction of duty or corruption, father, will you go to jail? โ€

"Probably not."

Dan Mingmin visibly hesitated.

"Yes yes, no yes no. What do you mean maybe? Make it clear. Miss Coco frowned.

"Well, the fact that I wasn't taken away today means that no actual evidence of corruption has been found. It should be the old leader who still protects me, and the bureau is also guilty of dereliction of duty rather than dereliction of duty. But that's all he can do. I've been removed. By tomorrow, we're going to move out of here. โ€

Coco breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's a good thing, at least you don't have to go to jail, the person who offends Brother Hao, even if it's just a few months in prison, I doubt I can see you come out alive."

The girl actually laughed.

"The outcome should be the drudgery of being assigned to remote areas of Yangon province, and the best outcome is to be transferred to the traffic police force and become a grassroots traffic policeman. If you settle the accountsโ€”"

Dan Minming said with a wry smile.

"What do you mean to settle all the accounts?" Coco asked.

"Brother Hao is a very ruthless person, and there are still people in the bureau who want to bite me and think that there is a problem with the public money account. I had a phone call with my supportive boss, and he said that if he could fill all the gaps in this time, he would do his best to keep it down, so I said maybe. โ€

A flash of anger flashed in Dan Minming's eyes.

"I don't dare to pat my chest and say how innocent I have been over the years, how glorious I have been, and not a trace of dust."

"But who the fuck embezzlement would leave such an obvious accounting problem? I really want to eat money, I have 10,000 ways to do it to look clean, and when I check it, there is no problem with a penny in the accounts, and the money is already lying in the offshore bank. This is a sincere desire to fix me to death......"

"How much."

Ignoring her father's complaints, she asked calmly.

"1.2 billion kyats."

Dan Minming paused for a moment and said with a little difficulty: "Within three days." โ€

"Did we take it out?"

"Yes...... However, it is likely to be difficult. That's pretty much all of our family's savings. I want you and your aunt to leave the country and go to Thailand for the rest of your life to prepare an account with some deposits. I may need a little more fundraising. โ€

Dan Minming's status.

In the past, there were very few places where he needed money on a daily basis, and power was his greatest wealth.

1.2 billion kyats.

About $600,000, which is not outrageous.

Definitely no less.

If the book gallery that Gu Weijing's family has run for several generations is packaged and sold, it may not be able to sell this figure.

And it's too urgent, even if you want to realize some valuable things at home, you can only sell them for two or three percent of the price of cabbage.

The family's house is definitely worth more than 12 billion kyats.

But this is a government asset, not theirs, and it will be swept away today.

The phoenix that falls to the ground is not as good as a chicken.

Coco was originally an official lady.

In the blink of an eye.

Falling to the lowest echelons of society, the tuition fees for a semester at Dulwich now seem out of reach.

Not even Miao Angwen.

Not to mention going out to study abroad.

The reason why Dan Minming would raise his pistol at himself.

In addition to wanting to escape and not being able to face the cowardice of life, Weichang is not because he simply dies because of his savings, leaving a little savings for his wife and children.

"Even if I am transferred to the traffic police force, if someone wants to rectify me, I will definitely do the most meager salary, the most bitter and tiring position."

"Very well, then go borrow it."

As if she hadn't heard her father's words at all, she said calmly, "Since we don't have a choice, there's no point in complaining. โ€

"It's better than I imagined, I didn't expect that you can still keep your identity as a policeman, as long as the life can go on slowly, you can always pay back."

There was a moment of silence in the study.

Only the sound of waves crashing on the beach in the distance.

Through the window, Miss Coco looked out the window at the coastline where gold and azure meet.

It's beautiful!

She has lived in this European-style mansion for many years, and her bedroom faces the beach, sparkling and ebbing every day.

Koukou's discovery, she had never noticed that the beach outside was so beautiful.

Pity.

The girl regretfully thought that this would probably be the last time in her life that she would be able to admire the beautiful sea from the window of the Plaza house.

She herself was a little surprised.

When life is about to fall into the valley, the most distracting thing for me is the scenery that I once missed.

Coco wasn't talking.

Officer Dan didn't speak again.

The pregnant woman next to her probably thought about the dark life in the future.

She opened her mouth to say something, but she couldn't say a word.

In the end it was just a small sobbing where to whine.

"Crying, crying, what are you crying, Auntie, it's useless to cry."

Annoyed by the sound of sobbing, she tapped the table with the back of her hand.

Her father roared and threw wood carvings.

The wife just cried harder.

And Kou Kokou knocked on the table, and the stepmother really stopped sobbing aggrievedly and didn't dare to cry anymore.

Even if it is her, she understands at this moment who the real backbone of the family is.

"Auntie. Do you really think that if Dad is gone, we offend Brother Hao and go to Thailand, will it be useful? โ€

See stepmother like this.

Instead, she relented and sighed.

"Don't be stupid. Now the only one who can protect us is my father's identity as a police officer. For the underworld, the family of a criminal who commits suicide is a different thing from the family of a policeman. For the government, there are also two different attitudes. Do you understand? We never had a choice, so there's no point in crying. โ€

"You now have two options. Otherwise, you can divorce your dad. No problem, you can take everything you have at home. But I don't recommend that you choose that way. Auntie, you are also old, even if you beat the child, you are no longer beautiful. โ€

"Otherwise, let's continue to live together as a family."

Coco said softly and comfortingly.

"I'm sorry, I can't drop out of school right now, this is my last semester at Dulwich. Dulwich's diploma, looking for a job can at least want to be a local ordinary university. When I start working, the family should be better, and I will take care of you and have children. Okay? โ€

Auntie paused.

After looking at Kou for a while, she nodded slightly.
