"take it easy."
An Xin, however, treated the place as his own home, poured Tang Ping a glass of water, and said with a smile, "Go on, just tell me what you know."
Since the matter had nothing to do with him, Tang Ping honestly said, "This pockmarked guy seems pretty fierce. Since he took over, the price of fish we buy has increased a lot. Moreover, he has said that we are only allowed to buy from him. If anyone is found to buy from other places, he will cut off our hands and feet."
"Anything else?" Li Xiang asked, having been taking notes.
"The guy in charge of managing the fish farm is called Brother Ghost. I heard that he's just Ma Zi's underling, and Ma Zi has an older brother called Crazy Donkey."
"It matches up!"
After listening, Li Xiang exchanged a glance with An Xin and said, "Mad Donkey's nickname is Feng Dazhuang. He's been staying in the hospital ever since that brawl. After Huang Cuicui's case broke out, our investigation revealed that both of her kidneys were removed in the hospital where Mad Donkey was hospitalized. Now that Mad Donkey can't be found, we might be able to find important clues on this pockmarked man."
An Xin was also somewhat excited and nodded, saying, "This matches the information about Ma Zi provided by Yang Jian very well. Illegal organ trading and flour trafficking—this is a complete criminal syndicate, and the cases are all connected. If we catch Ma Zi, he will definitely implicate Mad Donkey, and the Huang Cuicui case will be solved."
"Don't be too happy yet. This pockmarked man is just a breakthrough. To really solve the case, we still need evidence."
The two officers got more and more excited as they talked, leaving Tang Ping speechless. He said, "Wait a minute, officers, could you please not discuss the case in front of me? This is putting a lot of pressure on me. I'm just an ordinary citizen."
An Xin laughed and said, "Hehe, I was so excited that I forgot this is your office. Sorry, Mr. Tang."
"It's nothing, it's nothing. By the way, weren't you investigating Xu Lei's case? Why have you switched to investigating Huang Cuicui's case? Oh, Officer Li, don't overthink it. I just heard that Xu Lei's case has been making headlines lately, and I'm just curious," Tang Ping said.
Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask.
Li Xiang frowned, seemingly realizing he had spoken too harshly, and added, "Xu Jiang suspected that Officer An was ineffective in handling the case, so he removed us from our posts."
Tang Ping, on the other hand, was quite understanding and said, "Isn't this nonsense? If even a righteous and good policeman like Officer An can't handle a case, how can someone else? I think he's clearly using his position for personal revenge, trying to abuse the death penalty to avenge his son."
"Don't gossip," Li Xiang said.
An Xin's face darkened at the mention of this, clearly because he had been disciplined for Xu Lei's case.
"Tang Ping, could you do me a favor and go fishing for a bit, and bring something in for me while you're at it?"
As An Xin was speaking, he suddenly handed over a voice recorder.
This is to have Tang Ping record the conversation and leave behind evidence.
"this....."
Tang Ping hesitated.
It wasn't that he was cowardly, but rather that the security situation in that era was far from good. During the period of rampant development, the armed clashes that broke out in the fishing grounds were clearly two groups of criminal gangs fighting for territory.
Bai Jiangbo and Xu Jiang.
Although Bai Jiangbo is dead, there is still Xu Jiang.
If I get involved, I'm afraid I'll face retaliation from Xu Jiang.
Tang Ping didn't want to offend Xu Jiang; otherwise, he would have chosen the one million yuan in cash and the sand quarry last night.
"Don't worry, we'll definitely guarantee your safety. Besides, this mission won't be for nothing; we'll help you apply for a bonus. Also, I heard from Meng Yu that you're quite skilled and a good fighter. If you're interested, you can become one of our unofficial intelligence agents, and you'll get paid."
An Xin seemed to sense his concerns and said.
Unofficial intelligence personnel?
Isn't he just an informant?
If all I want to do is make money, would I care about this?
bite!
Life Choice System:
1. Agree to help An Xin go undercover, and the reward is [3 centimeters more in any part of your body!]!
2. Refuse to join Anxin; if it's none of my business, the reward is a copy of the illustrated collector's edition of *Jin Ping Mei*!
Holy crap!
Tang Ping originally wanted to refuse, but unexpectedly, at this crucial moment, the life choice system was triggered again.
The key point is that the reward for this life choice is simply too tempting for him to refuse.
Who could resist the temptation of gaining 3 centimeters in any part of their body?
Add it to height, or add it to a certain body part, hehe, men all understand.
This kind of reward is simply too attractive.
As for the reward for refusing, what kind of rare edition of Jin Ping Mei? I, Tang Ping, am not that kind of person!
Thinking of this, Tang Ping, who was originally about to refuse, immediately changed his tone and said, "Officer An, that's not what I meant. I'm actually very willing to help you. Police and civilians cooperate, we're all one family. But you know, I'm in business. I'm afraid that if I'm exposed, they'll cause me trouble and retaliate against me. How will I continue my business then? So, Officer An, Officer Li, I have my concerns. Unless you can make sure I have no worries."
An Xin was delighted to hear this and said with a smile, "No problem at all, I can help you apply for a safe and civilized demonstration shop, which will be located on Lovers' Street. That way, you won't have to worry about anyone coming to cause trouble."
A presence on Lovers' Street?
Tang Ping was somewhat tempted upon hearing this and said, "Really? If that's the case, then I won't worry anymore, and I can work for you with peace of mind."
"Of course, what we police do is maintain public order and crack down on crime. It just so happens that the branch office has some spots available for Lovers' Street, I'll apply for them later."
The security situation in Jinghai is very serious. The higher authorities have repeatedly ordered the establishment of security patrol posts, including Lovers' Street. Therefore, Anxin's actions are not considered illegal.
Tang Ping nodded and said, "Okay, we usually buy fish in the early morning. I'll go to the market to ask around and find out when we can buy fish, and then I'll let you know."
"Okay, we'll follow you and make sure you're safe. But you need to hurry, preferably within the next day or two."
"no problem."
The two had made an agreement. An Xin and Li Xiang were decisive and efficient. Tang Ping even left without drinking the milk tea that Li Qiang had specially made for him.
After leaving Lovers' Street and getting on the bus.
Li Xiang said, "An Xin, the higher-ups haven't even ordered a major investigation into this kind of case. Aren't you being a bit too meticulous? You even applied for patrol posts for them..."
“Six people were seriously injured or disabled, and even guns were involved. The key point is that Bai Jiangbo’s group suffered a loss, their fishing grounds were seized, and they didn’t even dare to report it to the police. Don’t you think there’s something wrong with this? Moreover, this case involves Mad Donkey and is related to Huang Cuicui’s case. Wouldn’t it be a pity not to investigate?” An Xin argued.
Li Xiang sighed helplessly, "Fine, I think you're desperate to solve the case? The bureau says it's setting up safety and civility checkpoints, but the merchants have to pay for it. If Tang Ping doesn't pay, you'll have to foot the bill yourself!"
