Chapter 75: I don't want to pretend, I'm having a showdown
When he arrived in the provincial capital, Chen Xiao also temporarily put all the facts of the case in his mind.
At this time, he is still not suitable to think about those things.
After all, he hadn't seen the old man Guo Zhengchang until now, and he didn't know what he meant, so it was useless to think about it.
Finally, Guo Qing drove the car to a mountain.
There are several villas on the top of the mountain, and Guo Qing said that all of them were built by Guo Zhengchang.
The reason why I live here is purely to be pure.
Chen Xiao wasn't much moved, but he really arrived at the top of the mountain and looked at the villas one by one.
He still couldn't help but be surprised.
What does it mean to be rich?
Chen Xiao has always felt that people who are free in wealth are rich people.
But now, he suddenly felt like he was sitting in a well and watching the sky with what he thought was the concept of money.
Fortunately, he is not the same as he was in his previous life.
There is no need to be timid here, because he did not beg Guo Qing to bring him here, on the contrary, Guo Qing spared no effort to facilitate him to come here.
After a little wait in the gazebo in front of a villa, soon a nanny came to inform.
"Mr. Guo, the old gentleman invites the two of you to the study."
Guo Qing got up and straightened his clothes, and then said to Chen Xiao as he walked: "Mr. Chen, don't be nervous, in fact, my uncle is very good." It's just that his identity and status have been endowed with too many legends, so it seems mysterious. ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "I think Mr. Guo, you are very nervous." ”
"Huh? cough cough cough ...... There's no way, all the juniors of our Guo family are quite afraid to see him. If he made a mistake when he was a child, he was really willing to fight. It doesn't matter if you make a small mistake with two sticks, and if you make a big mistake, you won't stop if you break your leg. ”
Guo Qing said and showed his wrist, signaling that the stick was as thick as his wrist.
Chen Xiao listened and subconsciously asked: "Then you have suffered so many gunshot wounds, Mr. Guo didn't say anything?" ”
Guo Qing is nicknamed Sixth Brother, named after the six gunshot wounds on his body.
"Do you think that if I hadn't been injured so much, the old man would have been able to hand over all the business of Dongzhou to me? If I don't make a name for myself outside, can I take you to see him today? But those guys who beat me with black guns will never be seen in my life! ”
Guo Qing said, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes.
Chen Xiao smiled slightly, he suddenly doubted that even if he found out about Guo Ning's death, Guo Qing really had any hope of ascending to the throne?
But these have nothing to do with him, and whether he can be on can only be said to be Guo Qing's own creation.
followed to the study, but unexpectedly Guo Zhengchang was not the only one in the study, but also several men over half a hundred years old.
Seeing this, Guo Qing hurriedly introduced: "Uncle, this is Mr. Chen I met in Dongzhou." ”
"Chen Xiao, this is my uncle, the first three on the left are my father, then my third uncle, and then my fourth uncle."
Chen Xiao roughly understood who it was, and when he was about to say hello, Guo Zhengchang took the initiative to come forward.
"Hello, Mr. Chen."
The old man had white hair, and he didn't look like the rich old man he imagined.
On the contrary, his face was full of signs of age, and the back of his hand and arm were already clearly age-spotted.
Chen Xiao shook hands with Guo Zhengchang, and the latter smiled: "Guo Qing, you haven't been back for a long time, go to the courtyard with your father and your third uncle and fourth uncle to drink tea, and I will talk to Mr. Xiao Chen alone." ”
Several people retreated, and when they left, Guo Qing secretly made a cheering gesture at him.
Chen Xiao smiled back, and after the door was closed, Guo Zhengchang said: "I know a lot about Mr. Xiao Chen's affairs in Dongzhou. You make people feel weird, as if you suddenly changed overnight? ”
Chen Xiao had expected this question to be asked by the Guo family when he came, so he replied without thinking:
"I don't want to pretend, I'm having a showdown."
Guo Zhengchang obviously didn't expect that he would get such an answer, and after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head and said: "It's still unreasonable, after all, you have ruined your future." ”
"I think my daughter-in-law can make a difference, but as for me, it's all a little trouble." Chen Xiao smiled very easily.
Guo Zhengchang was stunned: "So you mean that you bet the treasure on your daughter-in-law?" ”
"Yes, I don't like to be a police officer, but she loves to be a police officer. In that case, then I'll just help her achieve her ideals. ”
Guo Zhengchang glanced at Chen Xiao deeply, then scratched his gray hair and said, "Although I still feel very surprised, I feel your sincerity." ”
Chen Xiao smiled slightly: "Actually, Mr. Guo also surprised me, you shouldn't test my ability at this time, why did you ask me about my previous things?" ”
"I don't have to test your abilities, and I don't have that ability to test you. The Dongzhou Cotton Pants Case, the Headless Case, and the Swallow Lane Fishbone Case, you only need one day for these three cases, and some cases may be less than 24 hours. Especially the fishbone case in the back, even Zhang Xian has been reduced to your background board. I have lived for such a long time, how can I bring humiliation on myself. ”
"Three hundred and sixty lines, there is a champion in the line!"
Guo Zhengchang said truthfully, and Chen Xiao's mentality became more and more relaxed.
"Do you have any images or letters about your granddaughter, old sir? I want to get to know her. Chen Xiao didn't want to say something unrelated to the case, so he chose to take the initiative to get to the point.
It's just that Guo Zhengchang was a little surprised: "You are the first person to ask to see something like Xiao Ning." ”
"Maybe it's because the investigation method is different, the seniors of the previous task force learned about her whole person through you, your family, and Miss Guo Ning's friends and classmates. And I like to get to know her from what she has left behind. ”
Guo Zhengchang nodded very seriously, and then got up and went to find what Chen Xiao wanted.
Looking at Guo Zhengchang's back, Chen Xiao suddenly wondered if every successful person would be the same as this old gentleman.
There is no shelf, and I also believe in the principle of 360 lines, and there is a champion in the line.
Working with such a person, Chen Xiao feels that it will save a lot of trouble.
It's just that the more he feels that there is no trouble, the easier it is for Chen Xiao to remember Zhang Xian's reminder when he came.
Zhang Xian said: After entering the Guo family, everything should be cautious.
Chen Xiao thought about it, and suddenly noticed the door of the study that Guo Zhengchang had opened.
The open door made him suddenly understand why he should be cautious.
Guo Zhengchang's career in his life is huge, Guo Qing wants Chen Xiao to solve the case, but there are definitely people who don't want Chen Xiao to solve the case.
Doesn't you have to be cautious when you come and go?
It's just that Zhang Xian and he both thought of the truth, why couldn't Guo Zhengchang think of it, and still open the door of the study so much?
Chen Xiao was strange, but she also reminded herself in her heart that she had to leave the provincial capital as soon as possible and go to the scene of the crime as soon as possible.
Not long after, Guo Zhengchang came back with a cardboard box and a laptop.
He closed the door again and handed the computer to Chen Xiao first: "The image materials are all in this computer, and the cardboard box contains the letters she has written to me over the years, and I have been collecting them like a baby." Mr. Xiao Chen, take your time. ”
Chen Xiao nodded and said okay, Guo Zhengchang opened the door again and went out.
It's just that Chen Xiao can feel that Guo Zhengchang is not far away, but is guarding the door.
It seems that the case of Guo Ning and others being "sacrificed" has not been found so far, and it is not only because of the task force.
