Chapter 208 My Mother Was a Heartthrob in the 1980s
As Qiangzi prepared to open the door and leave, his right hand, which was holding the knife, slowly lowered. This was the perfect opportunity that Liu Xu and the other man had been waiting for.
"Don't move! I'm a police officer."
Liu Xu stepped forward and slapped Qiangzi's right hand. Qiangzi cried out in pain, and the knife fell to the ground.
"police?"
Qiangzi's tone was flustered, but his eyes instantly turned fierce; he didn't want to be caught.
"Xiao Jiang, be careful."
Liu Xu was caught off guard and Qiangzi broke free. Fortunately, Xiao Jiang, who was the strongest fighter in the team, swept his leg away.
"boom……"
Qiangzi was pinned to the ground with a pained expression. Upon seeing this, Liu Xu immediately took out handcuffs and handcuffed him.
"Xiao Jiang, go check the other side. This guy is very vigilant and quite skilled. His accomplices are sure to be tough to deal with. Go see if Captain Jiang needs any help."
Just as they were paying Qiangzi, they heard the sounds of fighting coming from another room through the crack in the door.
"Okay, I'll go take a look. Be careful and make sure your legs are tied tightly."
After saying that, Xiao Jiang quickly ran out.
When he arrived at another room and saw the thugs lying on the ground, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, the fighting had been quite loud, and he thought that Captain Jiang and the others were bound to get injured.
In reality, given their normal strength, Qiangzi and his companion wouldn't have been captured so easily. However, due to Si Yan's medicine, their minds were still foggy, so how could they exert their normal strength?
"Captain Jiang, are you alright? We also found someone in that room, and he came out carrying a sharp knife. He's definitely not a good guy."
Xiao Jiang recounted the situation he and Liu Xu had just encountered with a serious expression.
"They are indeed difficult to deal with. If it weren't for Lao Wang, I would have been injured at least a bit today."
Jiang Rang rubbed his arms; it had been a long time since he'd used his strength like this, and he'd almost fallen for the man's trick.
"That's good. I'm glad you're all alright, Captain Jiang. I'll go help Liu Xu move the people out."
After saying that, Xiao Jiang quickly walked to another room.
"Liu Xu, let me help you. Let's carry the person out. The thugs in the other room have already been arrested."
Xiao Jiang was completely unaware that Qiangzi's expression had changed.
"Impossible! My brother Qing is so capable, how could you possibly catch him?"
Qiangzi roared in disbelief.
"No matter how good you are, you're useless against our Captain Jiang. I advise you to just admit your guilt."
Xiao Jiang and Liu Xu worked together and with a little effort, they dragged Qiangzi out.
"Hmm, you've tied them up so tightly?"
As soon as Jiang Rang came out, he saw Qiangzi, who was tied up like a rice dumpling.
"Hehe, Captain Jiang, we were just afraid they'd get away."
Xiao Jiang touched his head sheepishly.
"Come on, untie his legs first. This is the second floor, how are you going to carry him down..."
Jiang pointed with a dark expression on his face.
"Yes, we'll solve it right away."
Xiao Jiang moved quickly, and in no time, only Qiangzi's upper body was still bound.
"Let's go down and talk about what happened, what your motives are."
Liu Xu kicked Qiangzi in the leg, making Qiangzi shudder.
Once everyone had arrived, Jiang Rang went to the door and let Si Yan and the other person in.
"Comrade Si Yan, look at these two, do you recognize them?"
Si Yan shook her head upon hearing this.
"I don't know them."
"Okay, you all sit down, let's ask them a few questions first."
Jiang asked this question because if the person was arrested and taken to the police station, it would have nothing to do with them. If this matter was handled well today, they might not only have their punishment revoked, but also receive some rewards.
"Tell me, your age and place of origin?"
Xiao Jiang took out a small notebook and asked Qiangzi and the other person seriously.
Upon hearing this, Qiangzi glanced at Qing Ge, and seeing his eyes flicker, he lowered his head and remained silent.
It was autumn of 1989, and it wasn't easy to find out someone's place of origin. So if the two of them didn't tell them, Jiang would have a hard time.
Seeing this, Si Yan calmly took off her mask. The "Most Popular Person" prop had another excellent use: it could make people speak their true feelings.
"Captain Jiang, these two don't seem like first-time offenders. They look quite menacing, and they might already have criminal records. You should inquire about them in that direction."
Upon hearing Si Yan's words, the amazement in Jiang Rang's eyes faded, replaced by focused attention.
"Speak, what exactly do you want from the Si family?"
“We were paid to come and help that mother and child.”
Qiangzi's expression grew increasingly terrified as he spoke, because he realized he couldn't control his mouth.
"Qiangzi, what nonsense are you talking about!"
Upon hearing Qiangzi's words, Qingge, who was the first to regain consciousness, realized something was wrong.
"Liu Xu, gag this man."
Jiang Rang saw that Qiangzi had finally spoken, and he didn't want to be interrupted.
"Your names, your hometowns, and what brings you to the Si family?"
Jiang Rang took the notebook that Liu Xu handed him and pulled up a chair to sit in front of the two of them.
“My name is Wang Qiang, and my brother's name is Wang Qing. We are both from City C. We were entrusted to come to City A to resolve the issue of Si Yan and her child.”
"Hmm, City C? Resolved?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Rang looked up and carefully examined the two faces. Some thoughts suddenly arose in his mind, but he still needed to ask them again.
Have you committed any crimes in City C?
Jiang Rang continued to ask.
"We did commit a crime. The massacre of the Liu family was done by my brothers and me."
"What? It's you guys?"
Before Jiang Rang could speak, Liu Xu, who was standing to the side, became excited.
"It's been a year. It's been a year since this tragedy happened in City C. You two brothers are really good at hiding things."
"Hey, Captain Jiang, wait a minute, the report from City C says there's only one suspect, but there are two right now, aren't there?"
Liu Xu suddenly frowned and asked.
"Wang Qiang, what did you do back then? Why did the police only believe there was one person?"
Jiang Rang turned to ask Wang Qiang.
Wang Qing lay on the ground, his face filled with despair, whimpering incessantly.
Even though Wang Qiang tried his best to restrain himself, his mouth still couldn't help but reveal the truth.
“I wore shoe covers at the time, and my brother deliberately covered up my marks, which is why the police thought it was done by one person.”
"You beast, you're a real beast."
Xiao Jiang, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but spit a few times.
The thought of the horrific scenes in the news brought everyone present to a silence.
"Xiao Jiang, go back to the station and tell the branch that we have caught the suspect in the major family annihilation case in City C."
This matter is of great importance, and these two are beyond the control of their Third Brigade.
"Comrade Si Yan, this matter is of great importance. I have to go back to the institute to cooperate with the investigation. We won't stay here any longer. I will tell you the truth after we have investigated who hired them."
But Jiang didn't know that no matter how much they investigated, they would never find the truth.
Because the person hired never showed up, and this person turned out to be Si Qingzhou's own grandfather. But before they even met him, the assassins sent by her grandfather arrived first.
"Brother Hai, that Si Qingzhou is your own grandson, how can you bear to part with him?"
Li Hai scoffed upon hearing this.
“What kind of grandson is he? In my heart, there are only our two sons. The children of Licheng are my real grandsons.”
"But my sister thinks differently."
The woman lowered her head and spoke softly.
"Huiru, you are the most important person in my heart. What is she? Once I finish my plans, it will be time for her to be dismissed. Then you will be able to stand openly by my side."
Li Hai held the woman in his arms and kept coaxing her, a behavior completely different from when he was at the Li family's old house.
“Brother Hai, but our Li Cheng is going through a critical period. If the company’s veterans find out that Li Yang has a son, I’m afraid Li Cheng won’t be able to keep it under control.”
The woman's worries at this moment were genuine. She knew that if her son wanted to gain access to the Li family, he would have to resort to extreme measures; he simply didn't have the ability to rely on his own strength.
"Don't worry, I've arranged everything. After the board meeting on the first of next month, our son, Li Cheng, will be the heir to the Li Group."
The woman's eyes flickered upon hearing this, and she subtly tightened her grip on Li Hai.
"Brother Hai, I'll do whatever you say. I'll do whatever you tell me to do."
The woman showered Li Hai with sweet words, making him overjoyed.
“Huiru, I only feel dignified when you are here, instead of being a son-in-law in other people’s eyes.”
It turns out that Li Hai originally married into Li's mother's family, and he wouldn't be where he is today without the help of Li's mother's family.
However, Li Hai regarded this period as a disgrace, and even personally killed his and his mother's second child. Not only that, he also brought his mistress's child to switch them.
To this day, Li's mother still doesn't know that her second son died on the day he was born, and that the child she raised for over thirty years was born to her husband and another woman.
However, the conspiracy was quickly exposed after they officially met Si Yan.
And there were only three days left until the academic exchange meeting where they met.
