Chapter 565 Above the Posa (100) [VIP]
Xu Ke’s parents are actually not difficult to get along with.
Wen Qi sat in the living room for several hours, holding a bowl of wontons just brought out from the kitchen, and silently labeled Xu Ke as "the good guy in the family" in her heart.
Before entering the room, Xu Ke gave her countless warnings, which made Wen Qi think that they were very serious and scary, but it turned out that they were just two ordinary middle-aged people.
Even because Xu Ke had told them something in advance, the two did not ask her why, as a high school student, she did not go to school on weekdays. They spent the whole time trying to change the subject and mobilize Wen Qi's emotions, fearing that she would be traumatized by witnessing the death of her parents.
All Wen Qi had to do throughout the process was nod "um" and "yes", and then take the pile of food that was continuously handed to her by the other side.
She wanted to go back earlier and tell the teacher that someone had discovered that the captain of the Abnormal Investigation Bureau who went back last night was a fake captain, but there were three policemen sitting in the not-so-big living room of Xu Ke's house. Wen Qi didn't know the specific type of police force his parents were in, so naturally she couldn't deceive them. She had to stay here and pretend to be flattered, hanging her head and pretending to be sad.
The TV in the living room was fixed on the news channel, with the host's voice as background music. Wen Qi lowered her head and looked around expressionlessly.
There aren't many cluttered items in the living room, nor is there a strong atmosphere of life. Everything is neatly organized in its own storage box. The messiest thing is the dining table in front of you, which is filled with a box of biscuits, a plate of dried fruits, and several bags of candy snacks that are only put out during the Chinese New Year.
When it was almost time for dinner, Xu Ke's father took out a bag of frozen wontons from the freezer. Wen Qi quietly followed his back and looked at the kitchen refrigerator. There didn't seem to be any fresh vegetables in it, only frozen foods.
From this perspective, Xu Ke's parents seem like the type of people who are busy all year round and rarely stay at home.
Wen Qi secretly guessed in her mind what kind of police officers these two people were. Criminal police? Prison guards? Or public security?
Anyway, these two men don't look very old and are definitely not of retirement age. Today is a working day, and two policemen who have not reached retirement age are staying at home instead of going to work. Could it be that Xu Ke's suspension has even affected his parents?
It was just a little Guo who died, why is it necessary to involve so many people?
Wen Qi silently held the wontons in her hands and ate while guessing. The thoughts in her mind had already flown away to who knows where.
Xu Ke's parents are at least 50 years old. At this age, they are definitely not grassroots police officers. At least they are small leaders. Xu Ke is definitely not comparable to them.
But the strange thing is that Xu Ke cannot be compared with them, but as small leaders in their fifties, they were suspended from work overnight like Xu Ke and had to stay at home. What exactly happened?
Is this really done by a "big shot"?
From the words of the team member brought by Xu Ke, it can be inferred that they all found out that they were suspended this morning. In other words, Xu Ke's course of action this morning should be: learned that he was suspended - his first reaction after getting the news was to investigate the murderer who killed Wen Qi last night, that is, Wen Qi's parents - learned that Wen Qi's parents died, quickly contacted another team member to go to the scene of the accident and take Wen Qi away - on the way to take Wen Qi away, he encountered a car accident, and in order to prevent an accident, he took Wen Qi to his parents' home.
During this time, Xu Ke spent most of the time with her. When he was with her, Xu Ke never called his parents. That is to say, the only time he communicated with his parents was before he came to see Wen Qi in the morning, when Xu Ke and another team member asked other people for news, and when they were on the subway to confirm that they would take Wen Qi to her parents' home.
The phone call and text messages alone would definitely not be able to explain what exactly happened, not to mention that Xu Ke seemed to have emphasized the content related to himself, which would inevitably compress the description of what happened last night and who suspended them. The three people must have a face-to-face communication.
Wen Qi quickly finished the rice in her bowl and yawned deliberately, which was soon noticed by Xu Ke's mother who was sitting opposite her.
"Wen Qi, are you sleepy?" She raised her head considerately, "You can't go to sleep right after eating. You can go downstairs and take a walk to digest the food first, and then come up to take a nap after digesting the food."
"I'm fine..." Wen Qi rubbed her eyes, "It's okay, I'm not sleepy."
She definitely couldn't go downstairs. Going downstairs would give the three people space to communicate, but at the same time, she wouldn't be able to hear what they were saying.
After a few excuses, prompted by Xu Ke's suggestion that "it's a bit dangerous for Wen Qi to go down alone", Wen Qi successfully entered his sister's room yawning, closed the door and pretended to sleep.
In the living room, after the clanging sound of washing dishes, a low female voice was finally heard: "Is that girl inside the room the missing girl your team was looking for? Is she the only one left in her home now?"
Are you talking about yourself?
Wen Qi lay by the door and pricked up her ears.
"No, she has a younger brother. Her parents and the driver died this morning," Xu Ke hummed in a low voice. "When the incident happened this morning, all her relatives came, but I was worried that she would be killed as well, so I quickly brought people to her house."
"Aren't you worried that your parents will be dealt with too?" Xu Ke's father snorted.
"I don't think anyone would dare to take action in the police station's family compound," Xu Ke muttered, "otherwise our captain has been targeted for so many years, going back and forth between work and home every day, and they haven't found any opportunity to take action, right?"
"Your captain..." Xu Ke's mother dragged out her voice a little, "Did something happen? This morning, your father and I saw someone who didn't look like someone from our compound coming out of his building, and he didn't look very happy."
"It's okay, the captain must be fine," Xu Ke said confidently, "The captain is now... uh."
His confident tone changed and he let out a long sigh: "He was stabbed by Xiao Guo and was recovering in a place where no one else could find him. I went to find Xiao Guo last night to find out why he did this, but I didn't expect to run into Xiao Guo being killed, and the clues were cut off again."
In fact, he went to find Xiao Guo mainly to ask him if he knew how to travel back and forth between the two worlds, but he didn't expect that at the same time Xiao Guo died, someone else came to the captain's house.
Although I don't know why someone would go to the house of the captain who was "dead" to the outside world, think about it, the captain was targeted because he already knew a secret about a "big shot". Maybe this person thought the captain was dead and went to his house to find this "secret".
Xu Ke's father snorted again, as if he had expected it: "I've long said that there's something wrong with that little Guo in your team. Has he fallen into a trap this time?"
It sounds like this family has a good relationship. Maybe it's because both generations are police officers and their work overlaps, but Xu Ke would tell his parents many things about the Abnormal Investigation Bureau, including Xiao Guo who was transferred into the team because the captain was targeted.
After Xu Ke's father said this, Xu Ke's voice revealed a bit of resentment after being scolded: "Dad, let's not talk about Xiao Guo. You two know more about today's suspension than I do. I heard that the reason we were suspended was not because of our relationship with the captain, but because of the other side. Is that true?"
Wen Qi's eyes flickered.
What Xu Ke meant was... that it wasn't the "big shot" who got them suspended?
Nothing else should have happened last night except Xiao Guo's murder, otherwise Xu Ke would not have had to hide it from his parents. If that's the case, then where did this new force come from?
"Whether it's true or not, you should correct your bad habit of rushing forward whenever something happens." Xu Ke's father raised his voice.
"Okay, your father and I don't know exactly what happened," Xu Ke's mother said, "but we did ask around this morning to find out what happened..."

"I heard that last night, a 'bigger big shot' who had been in retirement for three or four years suddenly felt much better," Wen Qi recounted truthfully, "Zhang Weijing and Zhang Xujiao's father was promoted by someone else. He is a big shot's backer, a big, big shot. Now that this backer is in better health, he naturally came out to support the big shot. Compared with the big shot's size, the mortal enemy is not even worth mentioning. As soon as the news came out this morning, the big shot became tough. Not only did he suspend a lot of people from their posts, but he also publicly disclosed the accidental murder of Chang Chang."
After hearing the news that their big backer had woken up, Wen Qi's parents' relatives didn't dare to say a word and quickly pretended to be dead, wishing they could carve the words "I don't know him" on their foreheads.
"There are even bigger figures above the big ones... You guys are playing nesting dolls," Zhao Yinglai complained subconsciously, "What are you doing here, big sister? You guys are not also Gu..."
She almost let the cat out of the bag and suddenly said, "Ancient society!"
After saying this, she covered her mouth guiltily and looked at Scario angrily.
I just said it casually and almost said the word "Gu Chang". It's not his fault. It's just that this process is too similar to the life of those arrogant male protagonists in Gu Chang.
Isn’t this a variation of “beat the younger one and the older one will come, beat the older one and the ancestor will come”?
The first words everyone says when they come on stage are "How dare you!" and the last words everyone says when they leave are "Wait for me to go back and tell my dad."
In the Gu field, the people of all ages who were slapped in the face by the male protagonist Long Aotian could circle the earth more than ten times if they were connected together.
Receiving Zhao Yinglai's gaze, Bai Jinshu glanced speechlessly at Zhao Yinglai, who was letting himself go as the get off work was about to end: "So, last night, a seriously ill big shot suddenly woke up?"
What a coincidence?
On the same night, nine people were killed using methods related to the underworld. The "big man" was busy with something they didn't know what it was. At the same time, a patient who had a deep relationship with the big man suddenly woke up to support him.
"Do you still remember why you came here?" Bai Jinshu tapped the table with his fingers and looked up at Wen Qi.
"I...faked my death in order to find a substitute?" Wen Qi replied in confusion.
"No, the reason you came here is because there are some means of communication between the two worlds, and a small number of people obtained this means and spread the information in a small range." Bai Jinshu corrected her answer.
"And at that time, we had a suspicion about a problem," Bai Jinshu looked up at Zhao Yinglai.
"Why are those who have been sentenced to death or know they will face the death penalty so sure that the substitute will be executed within a short period of time after they return with it..." She blinked, "Because more people above them know the news and make it easy for them."
"You mean..." She paused.
The "big shot" is also one of the small group that knows about the existence of the underworld?
