Chapter 37: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
When Su Nanzhi came back with dinner, the old lady in the ward had also returned and was having dinner with her family.
The ward was filled with the aroma of food. Xu Jianian was fine, having just eaten an apple. However, Qin Lie had already fallen asleep on his side. If it weren't for his overly straight sleeping posture, he would have looked like he was asleep.
Although the food in the hospital cafeteria is not as good as that in state-owned restaurants, it is much better than what most families cook nowadays.
As soon as Su Nanzhi opened the lunch box, the aroma of meat instantly overwhelmed all other smells.
The old lady next door couldn't help but glance at the lunch box, and the moment she met Su Nanzhi's gaze, she immediately moved aside anxiously.
Seeing this, Su Nanzhi raised her eyebrows.
Being a "shrew" will save you half the trouble.
Su Nanzhi and Xu Jianian finished their dinner, washed up, and fell asleep soon after.
The next day.
Because he was hungry, Qin Lie didn't sleep well all night. When he woke up again, Su Nanzhi was gone.
For some reason, he felt a little uneasy.
If Su Nanzhi knew what he was thinking, she would definitely praise him for becoming smarter.
When Su Nanzhi arrived at the military family compound, she saw the wives of soldiers and aunts sitting under a big tree and chatting.
She came from the countryside and didn't know anyone, so naturally she could only look for people she had met a few times.
It doesn't matter whether it's money or not. The most important thing is to let everyone know that Qin Lie used his fiancée's name to threaten his fiancée to pay back the money. Also, Qin Lie didn't know what big thing had happened and he needed a lot of money.
As soon as Su Nanzhi told what happened yesterday, a military wife quickly took over the conversation.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Qin also borrowed money from my wife yesterday. Did he encounter any difficulties?"
"Deputy Battalion Commander Qin also borrowed money from my family."
…
I don’t know if Su Nanzhi was lucky, but most of the military wives chatting under the tree today were men who worked with Deputy Battalion Commander Qin.
Qin Lie borrowed money from these officers he worked with yesterday.
Some of the officers borrowed it, while others refused.
However, it is still far from the goal of one thousand yuan.
Qin Lie naturally couldn't tell the truth when he borrowed money from others, so he used the excuse that he needed money from his hometown.
Now that Su Nanzhi, an old family member, has appeared, everyone knows that Qin Lie lied.
Everyone started discussing why Qin Lie asked for money.
However, it doesn't seem strange that a person who would shit in the hospital corridor in broad daylight would borrow money everywhere.
Su Nanzhi looked at everyone who seemed to be lost in thought, pretended to wipe her tearless face, stood up and said goodbye, and left.
Then he turned around and went to the military office.
Qin Lie, an officer, encountered a problem and had to ask the army for help.
Su Nanzhi was led by the guard to the office of Political Commissar Zhu.
When Political Commissar Zhu saw Su Nanzhi's rosy face, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, Su Nanzhi was a military family member, so he knew what happened yesterday at the first time.
However, I still feel a little confused about why Su Nanzhi came to find the troops.
"Comrade Su, are you in trouble?"
Thinking of this, Political Commissar Zhu's face immediately became serious.
Although she didn't know what Political Commissar Zhu was thinking, Su Nanzhi still nodded in agreement.
Then she calmly extended her hand towards Political Commissar Zhu.
Political Commissar Zhu:?
Su Nanzhi was a little embarrassed, "I want to advance Qin Lie's salary with you."
Political Commissar Zhu: "If I remember correctly, didn't you give me an advance on Qin Lie's salary?"
Su Nanzhi looked aggrieved. "I don't want to do that either. If I don't give Qin Lie money, he'll cancel the engagement with me."
"When I got into trouble yesterday, he blamed me for calling the police and said he thought I was dirty."
Su Nanzhi would not miss any opportunity to offend Qin Lie. This kind of victim-blaming theory is not advocated by the army. You can tell by looking at the ugly face of Political Commissar Zhu.
Political Commissar Zhu did not expect that the deputy battalion commander in the army had actually slipped through the ideological education net.
"And after I went to the Public Security Bureau, Qin Lie also left the hospital. When I came back, he asked me for money. I don't know what difficulties he encountered."
"I heard he even borrowed money from colleagues in the family compound, saying his family back home needed it, but I didn't hear about it."
After saying that, Su Nanzhi looked at Political Commissar Zhu with a confused look on her face.
The main attraction must be an eye-catching one, and the simple character setting must also be established.
After hearing what Su Nanzhi said, Political Commissar Zhu felt that the matter was even more serious than he had imagined.
On the day when Qin Lie's fiancée got into trouble, he suddenly needed a large sum of money. So could Su Nanzhi's accident be related to Qin Lie?
Looking at the changing face of Political Commissar Zhu, Su Nanzhi pursed her lips to hide the smile in her heart.
But in the end, she naturally did not get Qin Lie's salary from Political Commissar Zhu.
After chatting with Political Commissar Zhu for a while, Su Nanzhi left his office.
However, as soon as she left the office, she ran into Gu Xizhou with a sullen face.
When Gu Xizhou saw Su Nanzhi, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and then he looked at her with a frown.
"Is something wrong?"
Without waiting for Su Nanzhi to answer, Gu Xizhou continued: "Go back and rest first, I will help you solve it."
"I will make those two scum pay the price they deserve."
If Su Nanzhi still can't hear anything, then she has lived her life in vain.
"Did those two reveal who was behind them?"
First of all, we can rule out Qin Lie’s ability, after all, he is still borrowing money everywhere.
But if it wasn't Qin Lie, who else could it be, Zhao Xue? Or someone Zhao Xue knew?
Gu Xizhou shook his head, "Things are very complicated now."
He looked at Su Nanzhi and said, "Don't interfere anymore."
After saying this, he walked into Political Commissar Zhu's office.
Su Nanzhi looked at his disappearing back, and thoughts of people Zhao Xue might know flashed through her mind.
Finally, her pupils shrank and she thought of the man that Ding Lai Di mentioned when he was chatting with Ding's mother.
Brother Hei?
The name Heige doesn't sound like a serious person. I just don't know what this Heige does.
Gu Xizhou pushed open the door and walked into Political Commissar Zhu's office. He spoke without wasting any time.
"The two hooligans who harassed Comrade Su yesterday were members of the Revolutionary Committee."
Political Commissar Zhu originally wanted to tease Gu Xizhou for staring at a dead face every day, but when he heard what he said, the dead face moved from Gu Xizhou's face to his face.
Although the atmosphere in the army is better than outside, we will try our best to avoid conflict with the people in the Revolutionary Committee.
However, if the Revolutionary Committee really confronts the troops, they will not back down.
"Tell me more specifically."
Political Commissar Zhu's face looked extremely grim.
When Gu Xizhou saw Political Commissar Zhu's expression, he calmed down a lot and told him the information he got after going to the Public Security Bureau in the morning.
A friend who worked at the Public Security Bureau told him that the Revolutionary Committee had contacted the Public Security Bureau and hoped that the Public Security Bureau would hand the two people over to the Revolutionary Committee for handling.
Although the Public Security Bureau refused, the Revolutionary Committee would not give up easily and might eventually transfer the case to the Revolutionary Committee for handling.
Although this matter seems to have nothing to do with the army, Su Nanzhi, as a family member visiting the army, is at least half a member of the army.
And the most important thing is what role Qin Lie played in this incident.
Although Su Nanzhi's words just now made Political Commissar Zhu somewhat suspicious of Qin Lie, Gu Xizhou's words at this moment made Qin Lie's suspicion even stronger.
"Why is everything related to Qin Lie?"
"The previous incident involving enemy spies hasn't been fully investigated yet, and now it's linked to the Revolutionary Committee."
"If he really can't be a soldier, he should get out of the army as soon as possible."
…
Gu Xizhou listened to a few words and interrupted Political Commissar Zhu's mumbling.
"I'll find someone to stay with Qin Lie these few days."
Seeing Political Commissar Zhu nodded, Gu Xizhou turned and left.
