Chapter 679 The Passing of Time 44

Sure enough, it was because of this oversight that Oda set his sights on him.

But so what? He had already come up with an excuse on the way to the headquarters. This time, he was sure nothing would happen to him.

"How can you prove that the missing medication from the hospital was the work of a ghost? Are you two very close?"

Oda: ...Who's familiar with him? Who's familiar with him? He doesn't even know if the ghost is male or female, so how could he be familiar with anyone?

Qiu Juncheng: I know her well. She's a woman, my wife. We're intimate in bed. But would I tell you that?

"The day before the White Building released the prisoners, the tank that His Excellency He Rui was riding in disappeared on the spot, just like the case of the theft of medicines from the Army Hospital. Who else could it be but the work of a ghost?"

“Mr. Xiaotian, you’ve got one thing wrong. In the case of Guan Sanqing, the source of the drugs he sold was the Army Hospital. Guan Sanqing himself admitted that.”

Moreover, the list of medicines was written in the case file, and the total amount of medicines lost from the army hospital was different. In other words, Guan Sanqing's Japanese friends only took a portion, but Ghost took the rest.

Not only do I know the truth about this, but the higher-ups know too. However, everyone tacitly agrees not to investigate further. Do you understand?

Yes, everyone understood what was going on, but they couldn't investigate any further. After all, Ma Wenqi was dead, and the Ma family didn't dare to pursue the Japanese for an explanation. More importantly, everyone was afraid of dying!

Only a fool like Oda would dare to investigate things related to ghosts when he has nothing better to do.

Major Oda understood this principle perfectly well, but he just felt that there was something wrong with this guy surnamed Qiu.

Unfortunately, the subsequent interrogation made no progress whatsoever. He really wanted to torture Qiu Juncheng, thinking that no matter how stubborn he was, he would confess everything once he was tortured.

But no!

Lord Kawasaki can tolerate him investigating Qiu Juncheng, but if he really tortures Qiu Juncheng, Lord Kawasaki will never forgive him.

Even if he doesn't resort to torture, he'll still find ways to deal with him!

Xiao Tian left, and Qiu Juncheng was thrown into prison.

He was brought here around 10 a.m., so he naturally missed lunch.

And what about Ning Yan?

The moment Qiu Juncheng was taken away, the bureau was in an uproar!

Their bureau chief is so good! He gave them a raise as soon as he became the top leader. Their salaries couldn't be increased, but they all got an extra two dollars every month, and everyone's life is better now.

Police officers from other branches also had to give bribes to their superiors, with each month's tribute costing at least one silver dollar.

If the bureau chief really gets into trouble, and then another inhuman person comes along, will they still have a good life?

So, a group of people surrounded Li Dagang and Su Sheng.

"Brother Su, Brother Li, you guys need to think of something quickly! The director can't be allowed to get into trouble!"

"Yeah, yeah, let's think of a way! If you have any ideas, please tell us quickly."

"I can't help with other things, but if you need money, my family is a bit frugal, but I can still come up with ten silver dollars..."

"Yes, I can't contribute my labor, but I can contribute my money. I can also come up with eight silver dollars!"

"Me too, me, I'll take twenty!" The one who said twenty was a squad leader, the kind who was in charge of ten people.

Su Sheng quickly said, "Alright, alright, our bureau chief is innocent. What could they possibly find out? It won't come to that!"

You should save your money for now.

After shooing everyone away, Li Dagang said with a worried look, "What should I do? I also hope that the director is alright, but I just don't feel confident."

Su Sheng: "Let's go to the bureau chief's house."

Li Dagang: ...What can Madam do? She's just a country girl with nothing but beauty!

Huh? Li Dagang looked up in horror, "Su Sheng, you wouldn't be thinking of..."

Su Sheng knew Li Dagang too well; he could tell what Li Dagang was thinking just by looking at his expression. "Dare to talk nonsense, or I'll beat you to death!"

"Then what do you mean? What's the use of finding the madam?"

"The director said that Madam has been playing cards with Director Luo's wife recently. He suggested that Madam go and ask Director Luo about it, which would be better than us being like headless flies."

"So that's what you meant. I thought..."

Su Sheng raised his hand and slapped Li Dagang on the back. "What do you think you are! All you think about is that kind of dirty stuff. Hurry up, let's get the director's car."

...

When Ning Yan saw the man's car return, she thought he had been slacking off today, but to her surprise, it was Li Dagang and Su Sheng who got out of the car.

"lady."

"Come in and sit down. Is something wrong?"

Su Sheng didn't sit down, but stood in the hall and said what needed to be said, "Madam, the director is in trouble. Today, Major Oda took the director away with his men. It seems that this is a big deal, and the investigation has been authorized by the higher-ups."

The door to the director's office was open at the time, and Su Sheng and Li Dagang were both standing at the doorway, but they could hear everything clearly.

A loud thud came from the kitchen as dishes fell to the ground. Li Dagang and the other man looked over.

Ning Yan covered it up by saying, "It's nothing. The servants in the house are always clumsy. If it weren't for her honest and simple nature, I would have fired her long ago."

Qiu Juncheng's superior should be from the department, but it was Major Oda who came forward, which means it was the headquarters' order. "Why is the headquarters investigating him? He is wholeheartedly serving the Japanese and has no ulterior motives whatsoever. Why is he being investigated?"

Even if you suspect him of being a spy, he should at least have access to classified files on phones, right? Where would a lowly district police chief like him get access to such files?

She had previously thought that Qiu Juncheng's identity was perfectly safe, and that she could comfortably wait with him until Japan was defeated and China was established. Little did she know that life was never always smooth sailing.

Su Sheng sighed. He had overthought things. How could he have placed all his hopes on his wife? She had never seen much of the world, and it was already a miracle that she didn't burst into tears on the spot when faced with such a situation.

“My dear wife, no matter how diligently we serve the Japanese, when something really happens, we will be the first to be suspected.”

Moreover, that Xiao Tian is ruthless; I'm really scared..."

Originally, Li Dagang had never dealt with Xiao Tian before, having only met her a few times and barely exchanged a few words with her. However, he found Xiao Tian irritating and blurted it out without thinking. Fortunately, he was interrupted by Su Sheng's nudge before he could finish speaking.

Su Shengzhen was truly impressed by this kid. Wasn't he just making his wife worry for no reason?

"What is the relationship between Madam and Madam Luo?"

"you mean……"

"If you can get in touch with her, you might as well try to find out what she thinks from Madam Luo."

Ning Yan immediately stood up. "Then I'll go now. Madam Luo likes me very much. I'm just testing the waters. She'll definitely be able to tell me."

"Then we'll take Madam there."

"Okay, okay, then I'll trouble you."

Ning Yan was so anxious that she forgot to change her clothes and hurriedly got into the car.

Of course, even at home, her clothes were never inappropriate, otherwise it would have been considered rude.
