Zhao Xu sat down opposite Sergeant Lin, smiled and said, "Officer Lin, I heard that Lian Ming's mother jumped to her death last night."

"Yes, yes!"

"Then why was this case closed so quickly?"

"It's the superior's intention."

"Who is your superior?"

"this......"

Chief Lin paused and said, "Officer Zhao, please forgive me. This is a confidential matter, so I can't tell you."

Zhao Xu stood up and said to Chief Lin: "Chief Lin, don't forget that you are a public servant of the people. Your mission is to eradicate evil and punish rape. If you can talk to me anytime, remember to let me know."

"Definitely, definitely!"

Zhao Xu didn't chat too much with Sheriff Lin and left Sheriff Lin's office in a swagger.

After getting in the car, Zhao Xu said: "Let's go back!"

After arriving at the "Seven Banquet Hotel" where he was staying, Zhao Xu asked Nong Quan and Shadow to go back first, saying that he had to go out alone to do something.

"Master, do you want me to accompany you?" Nong Quan asked.

"No! You go back to the hotel and wait. Tell them not to leave the hotel easily. Especially you, do you hear that?"

Nong Quan said "Oh!" and got out of the car with Shadow and entered the hotel.

Zhao Xu took out his mobile phone and called Yang Lan from the "Huaian Group".

When Yang Lan saw that the call was from Zhao Xu, she looked surprised.

Zhao Xu hasn't called her for a long time.

Because Yang Xing left suddenly, the entire "Huaian Group" matter fell on Yang Lan alone. Therefore, Yang Lan was busy with the company's affairs all day long and did not think about personal emotional issues.

"Brother Xu, you haven't called me for a long time." Yang Lan's sweet and sweet voice came from the phone.

"Xiaolan, are you free tonight? How about having dinner together?" Zhao Xu asked.

"Are you in the provincial capital?"

"right!"

"Okay! However, there are a lot of things in the company. I may not be free until after six o'clock. Can you wait for me?"

"No problem! Then I will pick you up from your company when the time comes."

"Okay!" Yang Lan happily agreed.

After receiving the call from Zhao Xu, Yang Lan felt as if she had been given a shot of chicken blood, and her whole body was full of energy.

Zhao Xu saw that it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and there was only one hour left before the agreed time. He drove to the "Huai'an Group" first.

Parked the car nearby and waited for Yang Lan.

It's been a whole day since he came out, and Zhao Xu hasn't called home to say he's safe.

At this time, Li Qingqing and Yunyao must be waiting very anxiously.

Zhao Xu then dialed Li Qingqing's video call.

"You finally called." Li Qingqing said.

"Qingqing, is Yunyao here?"

"exist!"

Li Qingqing gave the phone to Yunyao.

Yunyao asked Zhao Xu anxiously: "Zhao Xu, is there any news about the knife?"

"Not yet! But don't worry. I'm working hard to investigate this matter. Even if Dongchang catches the knife, I believe they won't use the knife."

In fact, when Zhao Xu said this, he didn't have any confidence in his heart.

God knows, if Chen Xiaodao was captured by Dongchang, would Dongchang kill Chen Xiaodao?

But after Yunyao learned the news about Chen Xiaodao's disappearance, she cried all day long and was even more worried about Zhongzhong. Therefore, Zhao Xu could only use this method to persuade Yunyao.

"Are you lying to me?" Yunyao asked.

"No! Think about it, we have hostages in Dongchang. Maybe they will ask me for a hostage exchange."

Yunyao said: "If that were the case, they would have called you long ago."

Zhao Xu was speechless.

"Anyway, if Xiaodao was in danger, given the capabilities of the police, his body would have been found long ago. Since Xiaodao's body was not found, it means he is safe now." Zhao Xu consoled Yunyao.

"Don't be too sad. Maybe I will rescue Xiaodao soon. When the time comes, Xiaodao will feel sad to see you become haggard."

Yunyao was amused by Zhao Xu and said, "Don't worry, I'm not as fragile as you think. I'm just a little anxious and want to go to the provincial capital to investigate this matter myself."

"You must not come, I am here. Believe me, even if the knife is lost and captured, I will definitely be able to rescue him."

"I believe you!"

Zhao Xu did not dare to chat with Yunyao for too long, fearing that it would make Yunyao even more sad.

After hanging up the phone, he sat in the car and waited for Yang Lan while turning on the radio and listening to the content on the radio.

The radio channel broadcasts news and anecdotes about the provincial capital, including traffic conditions.

At five o'clock, the employees of "Huaian Group" walked out of the company one after another.

At about half past five, Zhao Xu saw Yang Lan coming out, accompanied by four bodyguards.

Yang Lan looked around and found no sign of Zhao Xu.

Then, he called Zhao Xu and asked, "Brother Xu, where are you?"

"Right in front of you!" Zhao Xu held the phone in his hand and waved to Yang Lan.

When they got closer, Yang Lan saw that Zhao Xu was a strange man, and she looked wary.

Zhao Xu spoke out to Yang Lan: "Xiao Lan, it's me!"

Yang Lan recognized that it was Zhao Xu's voice, and then she felt relieved and said to the bodyguard beside her: "I have something to do tonight, so you can get off work first! This gentleman can protect me."

"Miss, the chairman asked us to protect you personally."

Yang Lan was a little angry. She glanced at the four people around her and said coldly: "Why, do you only listen to my dad and not me?"

"Don't dare!"

The four of them glanced at Zhao Xu and sensed a powerful aura of internal energy from him. Then they said hello to Yang Lan and left first.

Zhao Xu reached out and took off the mask on his face, revealing his true face. Then, he put the mask on his face again.

Said to Yang Lan: "Xiao Lan, you know that I have many enemies in the provincial capital, and it is not convenient for me to see you with your true appearance."

"I understand, Brother Xu!" Yang Lan smiled and said, "Let's go!"

Yang Lan walked beside Zhao Xu. She wanted to hug Zhao Xu's arm several times, but quietly retracted her hand.

Later, he had the courage to put his hand in Zhao Xu's arm.

For a moment, Yang Lan's heart jumped wildly, "Plop, plop!"

Zhao Xu looked calm and generous, letting Yang Lan hold his hand.

When they were teenagers, Zhao Xu and Yang Lan were childhood sweethearts.

In his heart, he has always treated Yang Lan as his own sister. Therefore, he will not have any other inappropriate thoughts.

Walking to the side of the car, Zhao Xu took the initiative to pull away from the passenger seat, and the gentleman made a gesture of covering his head.

Yang Lan said "Thank you!" and bent down to sit in the car.

Zhao Xu walked around the front of the car, got into the cab, started the car, and asked Yang Lan, "Xiao Lan, what do you want to eat?"
