"As soon as he's arrested, I'll send an anonymous letter to every cadre in the Revolutionary Committee, telling them about Li Jianguo's arrest. Many people there are eyeing his father's position; they're waiting for him to make a mistake. If his father dares to bail him out, those people will definitely notice and use this incident to bring his father down. Those people alone will be enough to give Li Jianguo's father a hard time. If his father is concerned about his own position, he won't save him. However, if his father really does get him out, that would be even better; then father and son will both go in together."
Luo Jingyan couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "Big brother, that was a brilliant move!"
Xue Yanchen showed no expression. Even though he had only been in the military, he had seen a lot of deceit and intrigue. There was always backstabbing and scheming everywhere. Others only saw the surface, while the real darkness was hidden deep in people's hearts.
"Brother, what do you do for a living? I think you have the potential to be a police officer." Luo Jingyan wanted to see if he would tell the truth.
"I used to serve in the military, but I've already retired."
"It would be such a waste if you didn't join the army."
"I'm farming in my hometown now. I think it's okay to do anything as long as you love your job. Whatever you do, as long as it's a legitimate profession, it's great."
"That's absolutely right! The working people are the most glorious and the greatest!"
The two of them hid in a corner and watched as Li Jianguo entered the casino. Xue Yanchen said to Luo Jingyan, "Go and report to the police quickly, you must hurry."
Luo Jingyan hurriedly left, but halfway there she realized she had forgotten about Black Tiger. Sigh, she couldn't worry about finding the cat now. Black Tiger was a very intelligent cat with a spiritual nature, so he would definitely be alright. She would come back to find Black Tiger after reporting the incident to the police.
She ran to the police station as fast as she could and told Cheng Tianming about the casino and brothel. She believed that Cheng Tianming was a righteous policeman who would not be afraid of the forces hiding in the shadows and would be able to do his job well and live up to his position.
After receiving the report, Cheng Tianming immediately organized other police officers to conduct a surprise inspection of the casino and brothel mentioned by Luo Jingyan.
To ensure the safety of the person who reported the case, "Dong Xiao," and to prevent her from filing a false report, he made sure she stayed at the police station.
Luo Jingyan was anxious because she was worried about Xue Yanchen. She registered at the police station and asked to leave on the grounds that she was going home to take care of her elderly mother. Only then did the police allow her to leave the police station.
After the police arrived, she quietly followed behind them.
In the casino, Li Jianguo was having a bad day and was about to lose all the money he had brought. With only one round left, he had lost interest and was ready to leave after losing all the money he had brought.
To everyone's surprise, his luck turned around in the last round. He won three rounds in a row, becoming more and more courageous, and won back most of the money he had lost.
Driven by greed, he was absolutely not allowed to leave at this point. So he gambled five or six more times and won four of them. By then, he had not only recovered all the money he had lost before, but also won a lot of money.
After winning the money, he thought of women. He put the money in his pocket, intending to leave and have some fun at an underground brothel.
But someone at the card table stopped him: "Brother Jianguo, you're having a good run of luck today, but I don't believe I'm having bad luck either. Let's play a few more rounds."
Some gamblers are more level-headed and know when to quit while they're ahead; they want to leave once they've won money. But losers are not so willing; they want to win back what they've lost.
Some winners, blinded by the thrill of winning money, want to win more and end up losing all their winnings.
Li Jianguo was in a good mood at the time, and he didn't really want to leave.
He was lucky today and believed he could win again if he played a few more rounds, so he readily agreed.
"Alright, I'll play a few more rounds with you guys. If you lose again later, don't cry and whine, and don't bother me anymore."
"It's not like we can't afford to lose, is it really necessary? After five rounds, no matter who wins or loses, we will definitely let you go."
"Okay, it's a deal."
So Li Jianguo stayed.
Black Tiger quietly hid in a corner of the casino, its emerald-green cat eyes fixed intently on Li Jianguo's every move and the actions of those around him. If Li Jianguo wanted to leave, it would try to create some chaos to make him stay.
Outside, Xue Yanchen walked up to the lookout. The lookout assumed he was also there to gamble, but the man was covered up and it was hard to tell his face. He was always cautious with strangers and always made sure to find out their background before letting them into the casino.
He stopped Xue Yanchen: "Do you have a pass? Or tell me the code word for today?"
