Chapter 32 Snatching People 3 We'll get you a household registration and a government job right away, a car, a house…

Old Wei really had his eyes opened today!

He was truly shocked and speechless by the test results he received from Qiu Xiaoman! The same pattern was tested three times, and each time Qiu Xiaoman was able to accurately report the direction Jiang Mingyuan had chosen.

Left with no other choice, Lao Wei increased the difficulty, instructing Jiang Mingyuan to first go to a certain street, then turn around and go in another direction, hiding there. Then, he instructed Qiu Xiaoman to communicate with Gouzi and find Jiang Mingyuan herself without Gouzi.

I thought this would finally stump this young comrade, but...

Jiang Mingyuan was found hiding under a truck by the roadside.

Jiang Mingyuan was found hiding in a roadside tree.

Jiang Mingyuan was found hiding in a public phone booth by the roadside.

In the end, Jiang Mingyuan, who was hiding in a giant trash can that was half a person's height, was still found.

Old Wei had to give a thumbs up: "Xiao Qiu, you are truly the most amazing talent I've ever seen! Come to Shanghai with me! I'll settle you down right away, get your residency and official position immediately, and let you choose any car or house you want! I'll also give you a settlement allowance of 300,000 yuan! How about it? Think about it! I'll have my student personally mentor you, and in a couple of years I can even recommend you to attend a police university. With a degree, promotions will be much easier in the future!"

Qiu Xiaoman was a little surprised. This Lao Wei was so generous! He had even thought about her career plans!

To be honest, if it weren't for Lao Wen's kindness in recognizing her talent, she would have liked to immediately follow Lao Wei to join the police force.

It's a pity we were too late!

Sigh, I suddenly feel a little reluctant. Such a warm and sincere leader, if you try to outsmart him, that would be an absolute desecration!

The strategy of deliberately appearing very interested to lure Lao Wei while simultaneously provoking Lao Wen to increase his stakes is indeed good and will surely succeed. However, given Lao Wei's sincere invitation, she couldn't bear to do it.

She ignored Jiang Mingyuan's warning look and silently looked at the moon overhead: "Old Wei, do you believe in sympathy for those in the same boat?"

Old Wei looked at her suspiciously: "What are you trying to say?"

Qiu Xiaoman turned around, smiled, and told Lao Wei that all the children had been looking forward to reuniting with their parents on their way from Yunnan. In the end, apart from the father of the Li family being forced to take in Li Yuanyuan, the other children were now homeless.

Qiu Xiaoman clenched her fists: "Feng Shengnan and the others were abducted partly because they underestimated the evil of the bad guys, and partly because of those irresponsible parents. Not one of them came to the station to pick up the children! I can't just leave them in Beidu and think about my own carefree life, so... I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, I can't go to your place."

Old Wei was shocked. This Xiao Qiu actually wanted to hold an umbrella for other children too!

He was genuinely surprised and impressed. He patted Qiu Xiaoman on the shoulder and said sincerely, "Good girl, you've been wronged. It seems that if I want to recruit you, I'll have to solve the household registration and survival issues of the other children first."

"Okay. So I won't make things difficult for you." Qiu Xiaoman smiled, completely forgetting Jiang Mingyuan's instructions.

She really didn't want to see a hopeful elder being played by her; that would be a bit unethical.

In fact, what kind of slippery people hasn't Lao Wei seen? It's precisely this kind of openness and honesty that can move them.

Old Wei wasn't angry or disappointed at all; on the contrary, he appreciated Xiao Qiu even more. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I understand. It's indeed a bit difficult to resolve the household registration issues for so many children at once. Here's what I'll do: I'll go back and try to persuade a few entrepreneurs to see if they're willing to adopt these children. I'll call you then. Do you have a landline at your place?"

"Not yet." Qiu Xiaoman shook her head. "Actually, there's no need to trouble them. They live with me now, and two of the older ones are trying to work to earn money. Besides, I have a formal job now. If we all work together, we can survive."

"That won't do. It'll be too hard for you to do it all by yourself." Old Wei couldn't bear it after all. His daughter was only in her early twenties, just four or five years older than Xiao Qiu.

His daughter has been pampered since childhood. The whole family wouldn't even let her wash the dishes. She went to university right on the doorstep, and they still had to take her to the school gate every day before they would stop. She's practically a little princess!

And what about Xiao Qiu? She's only eighteen, and she's already thinking about taking on burdens that don't belong to her!

No, he had to do something, even if he couldn't ultimately poach this rare and exceptional talent, at least he could have peace of mind!

Don't forget, he wore a military uniform for eight years!

He insisted, "I'll discuss this with your Director Wen. Don't be so quick to refuse to work for me; anything is possible!"

Qiu Xiaoman smiled and agreed. It was good; if a child could be adopted by a wealthy family, it would indeed be more comfortable than if the child stayed with her.

Especially Xiao Qiao! Such a wonderful child! Once she has an elder who is willing to take good care of her, she will surely grow up to be a little sun that warms everyone's hearts!

Qiu Xiaoman quickly mentioned Xiao Qiao's situation, and Lao Wei listened with great emotion, saying that children from poor families indeed mature early.

This poverty is not limited to material things, but also extends to the spiritual world.

She had no parents to love her, so she tried hard to please the people around her. She had no parents to care about her, so she didn't want to trouble others even when she had a fever.

If this were his daughter, he would be heartbroken.

He took it all down carefully and promised, "Don't worry, if there's a suitable family, I'll recommend Xiao Qiao first!"

"Thank you so much!" Qiu Xiaoman was genuinely happy. There are still many good people in this world. Such a high-ranking leader is not aloof or arrogant.

That's great! No wonder you're a veteran who's worn military uniform and then put on police uniform!

The two got into the car chatting and laughing, while the world of Jiang Mingyuan, who was injured, was finally settled.

He crawled into the trash can... In short, he's now a veritable beggar gang leader—a stinky version.

Thankfully, he took off his police uniform before crawling in. Whew.

Looking at his dirty body, he said, "Old Wei, you and Xiao Qiu go back first. I'm dirty, I'll walk back, it's not far anyway."

Old Wei refused to leave him alone, so he told Qiu Xiaoman to get out of the car and walk back together.

A person's character is revealed in the details, and Qiu Xiaoman felt that Lao Wei was far better than she had imagined!

The three men, leading four dogs, chatted and laughed as they headed back to the police station.

When we arrived, Old Zhang asked with a smile, "How did it go, Old Wei? Did you close the deal?"

Old Wei shook his head and said optimistically, "Good things come to those who wait! Chen Baihui hasn't called again, has she?"

“I called and told him you left. And—” Old Zhang pulled Old Wei along, quickly went to the office, closed the door, and whispered, “Old Wen called! He said Xiao Qiu needs to go back tomorrow! You’ve got to step up your game!”

"You told him I was here?" Old Wei frowned, full of resentment.

Just as Lao Zhang was about to speak, the phone rang. His intuition told him that it must be Lao Wen calling again!
