Chapter 308 Trying to Find the Truth
At this time, Huo Tingxiao, who was being missed, had already returned to Ji Qiubai's residence.
"How about it?"
Huo Tingxiao's face darkened slightly. "The place where I shot you was obviously where someone had already stepped on it."
Ji Qiu's face turned green. Doesn't that mean that someone had been eyeing him for a long time?
"Based on the position of the bullet, it should have hit your heart. You are lucky."
Ji Qiubai broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
At that time, he suddenly turned sideways, so the bullet hit his shoulder.
"If I'm not mistaken, Lao Tiao's wife must have been taken away by him."
Ji Qiubai still didn't quite understand.
"Brother Xiao, if it were a normal person, wouldn't they hide the child first?"
There was some confusion in Huo Tingxiao's eyes. According to normal people's thinking, shouldn't he hide the child?
Who would hide his wife?
Unless his wife has special significance.
Huo Tingxiao frowned, "Do you know where Lao Tiao's lover is from?"
How could Ji Qiubai know? "I don't know. I remember when I was a policeman here, Lao Tiao had just started dating someone. It seemed that the girl was introduced by his family?"
"It seems to be a small village, but I don't know the details."
"I'll check it out."
Huo Tingxiao pressed his action.
"You've been targeted, don't go there for now."
Ji Qiubai knew in his heart that this person was most likely an old man, and human nature was unpredictable. A small policeman with no power in the past could now cover the sky with one hand.
What role did he play in that case back then?
——
public security bureau.
The office was filled with smoke.
The ashtray on the man's desk was already overflowing.
There was a knock on the door.
The man crushed his cigarette.
"Come in."
The young police officer walked in and said, "Deputy Chief, the message has been delivered, and arrangements have been made for my sister-in-law. I have asked my brothers to look after your family."
The man nodded, "Did your sister-in-law make a scene?"
The young police officer looked a little embarrassed. "My sister-in-law was unhappy, but I explained the reason to her and she still didn't resist."
The man hummed, "Look back, find someone to watch over you."
If she hadn't been restrained by the child, I'm afraid she wouldn't have compromised.
"Where's Ji Qiubai?"
"He was shot, but we have people waiting at all the pharmacies and doctors in town, but no one has shown up yet."
The man looked ruthless. Ji Qiubai, you left and yet you are running back. You are overestimating your own abilities and still want to find out what happened back then.
He moved the stool back somewhat annoyed.
"Keep watching. Once you find him, don't let him have a chance to show up."
Ji Qiubai's identity is not a simple person, but if he doesn't die, he will definitely bite himself hard.
The young policeman nodded.
"Deputy Director, the things in your house are ready. When can we find someone to transport them out?"
The man was silent for a moment.
"Three nights from now, have them get ready. I will go there myself then."
The police officer nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact them later."
The man thought to himself that as long as he delivered this batch of goods, he would quit his job and take his children somewhere else.
As long as his wife is still in his hands, their family will be safe.
But for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong and felt uneasy.
And at this time in the village.
Mu Mu felt magical when he woke up in the morning.
After a whole night, he wasn't even bitten by any mosquitoes?
He curiously took the medicine bag that Xiao Wei gave him yesterday.
Is it really that easy to use?
The village had made these before, but the effect was not obvious.
If it were really that useful, we wouldn't have to suffer from mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants.
Every year in their village, there are people who die from illnesses caused by insect bites.
Thinking of this, Mu Tou got up quickly, washed up, and went to his grandma's room.
When he arrived at his grandma's house, he was even more amazed. Even though he often came to clean his grandma's house, there were still a lot of mosquitoes, insects, rats and ants.
I came here today, and didn't see anything at all.
The two female comrades that Xiao Wei brought yesterday were hanging out to dry clothes.
"Hello... Xiao Wei..."
Mu Tou spoke Mandarin not very fluently.
Shen Qingran quickly turned around and saw that it was Mu Tou, and spoke immediately.
"Hello, are you looking for Xiao Wei? He just went to fetch water."
Mu Tou chuckled and pointed at the herbal bags around their waists.
Shen Qingran's eyes lit up, "Isn't it very useful?"
Mu Tou nodded frantically and pointed at the unknown thing around the recipe that looked a bit like medicine powder.
"This, do you have any more?"
Shen Qingran and Ye Chun looked at each other.
“There’s still a little left.”
Just then, Xiao Wei came back carrying two buckets.
"wood!"
Mu Tou hurried over and took the bucket from his hand, and started chatting with him again.
Xiao Wei: "Sister Qingran and the others mean that there is still some stuff, but if everyone doesn't have enough, we need to collect herbs and make it again."
Mu Tou's eyes widened. "Can I give it to you?"
In their impression, such things are mysterious and cannot be given.
Shen Qingran nodded, "I can give it to you."
Mu Tou got a positive answer and danced with joy.
He immediately pulled Shen Qingran over.
Excessive enthusiasm.
Xiao Wei: "He said he wanted to take you to the village doctor, and he would collect herbs."
Shen Qingran did not refuse, "Wait a moment, I have the medicine powder."
Led by Mu Tou, several people walked towards a place far away from where a group of people lived.
Mu Tou was in charge and Xiao Wei was responsible for translation.
"Mu Tou said that the village doctor likes quietness and lives at the foot of the mountain. Usually, people will ask him to come over when someone is sick."
"He also said that the village doctor is a very nice person."
As they were talking, they arrived at the foot of the mountain.
A small bamboo building is inconspicuous at the foot of the mountain.
Mu Tou ran to the door, "Ha Grandpa, Ha Grandpa."
After a moment, an old voice was heard coming from inside.
"Who is it?"
An old man with gray hair and wearing traditional ethnic costume poked his head out.
"Wood!"
"Who is this person in your family?"
Mu Tou pointed at them and said, "These are grandma's distant relatives. They came to pay their respects and will leave in two days."
The old man uttered "oh" twice.
"Are you sick?"
Mu Tou quickly shook his head, "Ha Grandpa, my cousin at home gave me a herbal bag to repel mosquitoes and insects. I wasn't bitten all night yesterday. Take a look."
The old man listened and took a look, then walked over here.
A bit stumbling.
"show me."
Mu Tou quickly handed the thing over.
The old man opened the bag of herbs and smelled them. He could smell most of the herbs, but there were a few that he couldn't identify.
Shen Qingran had made some arrangements in advance, so of course it couldn't be discovered so quickly.
Otherwise where is the value.
"You did it?"
Shen Qingran met the old man's eyes.
"I did it, old man."
"Come in and talk."
Shen Qingran and a few others followed him in, and suddenly heard a strange roar.
Mu Tou explained, "Grandpa's granddaughter is a little mentally ill and can hurt people, so she is locked in another room."
