Chapter 256: There's Something Fishy No Matter How You Look At It



Xie Yu nodded to the captain beside him, then smiled softly at Xie Gui, "Brother, I'm fine. I came here to ask you for a favor."

When Xie Gui heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He narrowed his wrinkled eyes and said, "Come on, come in and sit down. Don't be in a hurry. Just take your time."

As he spoke, he made room for Xie Yu and filled the teacup with water before pushing it in front of Xie Yu.

Xie Yu did not refuse, he slowly picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, then said: "Sui Sui and I got the marriage certificate today..."

As soon as he said this, the surprise in Xie Gui's eyes quickly turned into joy.

He walked quickly to Xie Yu and patted his shoulder, "Really?! That's great, little brother! Sui Sui is a good girl, and she's a doctor. This is your blessing! You have to treat her well!"

The captain standing by was also surprised.

"Yes, it is indeed a great blessing for our village to marry a daughter-in-law like her."

In fact, ever since Chang Suisui went to the town to work as a doctor, people have been talking about Xie Yu and Chang Suisui in private.

After all, she was the only one in their village who had a formal job in the town's hospital.

Such conditions are hard to find even in the town, let alone the village.

Xie Yu has a problem with his legs and is a veteran.

Everyone thought that Chang Suisui would use work as an excuse to postpone the marriage.

Whether Xie Yu and Chang Suisui can go to Chengdu is a question.

I never expected that... Chang Zhiqing not only didn't refuse, but also got the marriage certificate with Xie Yu directly.

Wow, Xie Yu is really lucky to have such a good girl!

Xie Yu nodded, his eyes full of tenderness, "Brother, I know."

"Oh, yes, why did you ask me to come here just now?" Xie Gui seemed to have just recovered from his surprise and asked again.

Xie Yu raised his eyebrows helplessly, "Sui Sui is moving to my place today. The educated youths from the educated youth institute are helping Sui Sui move things. I want to treat everyone to a meal, but we don't have enough people..."

Even if Xie Yu didn't say the following words, Xie Gui understood what he wanted to do.

Upon hearing this, Xie Gui readily agreed, "This is an easy task, leave it to me! Don't worry, I promise to find you some skilled aunts and wives to help you."

As the village chief, he knows this kind of thing best and is more adept at it than Xie Yu.

"Thank you, big brother," he said, taking out a few big unity bills from his pocket and placing them on the table, "Big brother, you can decide how to use this money."

Seeing this, Xie Gui frowned and said, "Take the money and don't worry about this matter. I, your elder brother, can still help. Sui Sui will marry into our family, so I'll treat you to a meal as a gift to you."

As he said this, he stuffed the money back into Xie Yu's pocket.

"But brother..."

He knew that Xie Gui was genuinely kind to him, but it might be difficult to explain to Zhao Xiulan, and he didn't want to put Xie Gui in a difficult position.

Besides, he was the one who married the wife, so naturally he should pay for it himself.

But Xie Gui didn't buy his trick at all and turned around to leave.

“Ring, ring, ring…”

The village committee's phone rang suddenly. Xie Gui frowned, but still walked over quickly to answer the phone.

There seemed to be urgent news coming from the other end of the phone, making Xie Gui's face gradually solemn.

He looked at Xie Yu and said slowly, "Little brother, the call is for you."

Although the person on the other end of the phone didn't say anything, he could tell that the tone on the other end seemed very anxious.

I guess something big happened again.

Xie Gui couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but he still stood aside silently.

Xie Yu was a little surprised, but still answered the phone, "Hello?"

Soon, Han Qingshan's voice came from the other end of the line. "Xiao Xie, the situation is not good. Our people have lost Zhao Hui."

Xie Yu's fingers tightened unconsciously, and the telephone line trembled slightly in his hand, but his face was elusive and calm.

His brows twitched slightly, and after a moment he slowly spoke, "How did you lose me?"

"At first we followed him closely, but Zhao Hui stopped at a telephone booth in the town for a while and made a phone call. He seemed to have become a different person. He began to consciously avoid people and his movements became unusually cunning."

Han Qingshan's words were full of annoyance. "Our scouts were thrown away by him one by one!"

But this cannot be blamed on these scouts, as they are extremely nervous and have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities.

From the moment they were discovered, there was no point in tracking them.

Xie Yu fell silent, and the air in the entire village committee room froze in an instant.

After a moment, he slowly spoke, "Uncle Han, the most important thing now is to determine Zhao Hui's whereabouts. You must immediately organize people to search his residence in the town, and do not miss any place where there may be clues. At the same time, contact the telecommunications bureau and check Zhao Hui's call records during that period to see who he contacted."

"Well, our people are already investigating that phone call." Han Qingshan's voice revealed a bit of fatigue.

If I had known this guy was so cunning, I should have caught him right away.

Then interrogate the person thoroughly!

If he insists on being stubborn, I'll break his bones and let him remain stubborn to the end. This is better than feeling so nervous now.

Han Qingshan thought about this and couldn't help but add, "By the way, Zhao Hui is a vindictive person. I'm worried that he will target Chang Zhiqing. You must ensure her safety."

"Okay, I understand." Xie Yu responded quickly.

Suddenly I felt a little glad that Chang Suisui could move here today, otherwise it would be a bit difficult to protect her.

At this time, Han Qingshan seemed to remember something. After hesitating for a while, he spoke up: "There is one more thing. When Zhao Hui wanted to escape today, Lu Qingdai helped him. Should we...try Lu Qingdai?"

There's something fishy about their relationship no matter how you look at it.

Maybe by interrogating Lu Qingdai, we can find out where Zhao Hui is hiding.

Xie Yu frowned when he heard this. After thinking for a moment, he rejected this idea. "Uncle Han, Lu Qingdai is still useful. If we try her now, it will only alert the enemy. Let's send someone to monitor her secretly and see if Zhao Hui will contact her secretly."

"All right……"

Han Qingshan thought about it and agreed. "I heard from Li Dayong that you and Chang Zhiqing went to get the marriage certificate. So you should not come back today. Take care of Chang Zhiqing first. This is your task today."

Xie Yu sighed helplessly, "Got it, Uncle Han, if you have any questions, call me at the village committee."

"Yeah, got it."

The two of them exchanged a few brief words before hanging up the phone.
