"We are also investigating this matter. As you know, the case is somewhat complicated, and there are some details that I cannot disclose to you. Please understand."

Furthermore, only after Jiang Qiao is brought to justice can we conduct a thorough investigation.

Zhou Yu snorted coldly, "Investigate thoroughly? Comrade, are you kidding me? We don't even know if Jiang Qiao is alive or dead. If she's alive, that's fine, but what if she's been killed by the enemy? How can you investigate thoroughly? Let such a good comrade bear the blame and accusations?"

The couple came on strong and aggressive from the start, and not only was Jian Ling angry, but Zhou Yu was equally assertive.

If he didn't know what had happened, it wouldn't matter. But it was precisely because he knew that he felt sorry for Jiang Qiao. How unlucky she was! You said you wouldn't let them take people away, but these people put a label on her child. If she went with them, she wouldn't be able to protect others. What kind of people are they?

"You can ask your two injured comrades. Ask them if Jiang Qiao mentioned the possibility of being assassinated by the enemy on the way when she left with them. Did you provide any protection?"

Jiang Qiao had already warned you in advance, but what did you do?

This person got into trouble, and you're trying to smear our child? That's not how you do things.

What are you doing? You haven't even investigated properly after all this time? You still have the nerve to question others? Do you really think enemy agents are so easy to catch?

If it were that easy to catch, would our Jiang Qiao have needed to lie in bed in a coma for four years?

We are very dissatisfied with your explanation, and we request to see your superiors.

Hou Diankui stood aside, sizing up the man in front of him. "Young man, don't blame us for being angry. No one's child is born from a crack in a rock. Every family loves their child."

Don't you all know what kind of person Jiang Qiao is and how well he's done all these years?

Use your brains. Jiang Qiao, a pregnant woman, cooperated with you and came back for the investigation. Why would she do anything else?

It's nothing serious, and she didn't need to do it.

"Then can you give me an explanation? Why did Jiang Qiao do this?"

The man gave a wry smile. "Old comrade, well, I'm only in charge of reception. I really can't explain these deeper matters. If you're truly dissatisfied, I'll talk to my superiors. You just wait—"

Just as the man turned to leave, Hou Diankui said from behind, "Young man, you are also a son or daughter. Your father has been sick for so long, you must be heartbroken. Our Jiang Qiao is also our precious daughter, and we, as family, feel for her."

The man turned around in surprise. "Old comrade, how did you know my father was sick?"

Hou Diankui gave the man a strange look and said, "Young man, don't ask why. You know in your heart whether it's true or not. Your father's illness is not a serious one. He just didn't find the right person."

The man became excited and asked, "Old comrade, do you know anyone who can cure my father's illness?"

Hou Diankui chuckled mysteriously, "Young man, just remember that good people are rewarded. Everything is about fate. The person who can cure your father's illness is not destined for you for now. I don't know what I mean, but it's okay. Go and visit Song Shutian more often."

Gu Zhengkai, who was listening from the side, couldn't help but laugh. This uncle of his was always trying to fool people wherever he went. Wasn't the person the old man was talking about his niece? Why did he have to beat around the bush like that?

However, he made a pretty good expression; although he wanted to laugh, he put on a serious face.

"Comrade, their meaning is also my meaning, so you must give us a reasonable explanation for this matter. You can't just suspect us and issue arrest warrants without a reason and purpose.

We didn't intend to do anything, we just need a reasonable explanation from you. As for words like "estimate" or "probably," I don't think they are appropriate to use when referring to Jiang Qiao.

You've put a warrant for their arrest, and you still haven't reached a conclusion. This is no joke. My niece is pregnant, and you're making fun of a pregnant woman.

We, as Jiang Qiao's family, will not comment on what she has sacrificed, not out of resentment, but because we feel that you have never taken Jiang Qiao's issues seriously. Please convey my message to your superiors.

We've come all this way; we won't be easily dismissed with just a few words.

Their attitude was sincere, but also firm; they wouldn't go back without a satisfactory answer.

The other party was helpless. Compared to these people, he felt that his eloquence was somewhat inferior. Moreover, he actually agreed with Jian Ling and the others' point of view. However, he couldn't make a decision on this matter and could only consult his superiors.

The head of the investigation team was very troubled when he heard that his subordinates had failed to deal with Gu Zhengkai and his group. He scratched the back of his head in frustration.

"Oh dear, I thought you could handle this. How come you got it back so quickly? I told you all to study more, and this is what you've done? I'll go check on you—"

However, after walking a few steps, he turned back, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed a number.

"Sir, you have to save me! The Gu family has sent people. Yes, it's Gu Zhengkai. I was thinking of having my men explain things to them, but they won't listen."

Why don't you put in a good word for him? After all, he's your old subordinate; he should listen to what you say.

No one knew what was said on the other end of the phone, but the people standing next to them saw their team leader put down the phone with a big smile on his face.

The other party was secretly complaining to himself. He had just been blaming him for not handling the matter well, but now that it was his turn, he also had to find help.

To put it bluntly, it's not that he lacked ability, but rather that this matter couldn't be handled this way.

Jiang Qiao is such a good comrade. There was a problem in the middle, and the cause hasn't even been found yet. Just based on the evidence found at the scene and the testimonies of those two people, it seems a bit hasty to conclude that Jiang Qiao might be the murderer.

The people from the Gu family aren't wrong to ask: Where is Jiang Qiao? Why did she run away? How could he possibly know the answer? Even their team leader probably couldn't answer that.

The team leader showed up with his people. I thought they could answer my questions directly, but to my surprise, they told Gu Zhengkai to go upstairs to find someone.

"You mean the commander is up there?"

The other party nodded. "Yes, the old commander wants you to go over there. My men will take you there."

Gu Zhengkai hadn't expected that the old commander would still be here to oversee things; it was somewhat unexpected. However, after thinking about it, he understood what was going on.

The old leader was their superior back then, and he also came from an underground work background. It would be reasonable for him to come over.

Jiang Jinyu and Jiang Qiao have both been accused of having problems, which is no small matter. It's not something that can be resolved simply by handing it over to the investigation team. I'm sure the leaders have their own considerations.
