Chapter 222 She is not the victim
Xu Junjie looked up at the mirror and was overjoyed: "Zhou Yi?"
Zhou Yi was also surprised. Hongcheng is so big, but he could actually meet an old classmate in the men's restroom of the same restaurant.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Yi asked.
"Nonsense, let's eat."
"No, I mean you didn't go back to school? Don't you have a girlfriend there?"
Xu Junjie shook the water off his hands and said, "Hey, it's over. I just came back. Anyway, when the demolition money for the rural road construction arrives, my dad said he would buy me a new house in the city."
"I really envy you. You're twenty years ahead of your peers without doing anything."
"You're wrong, I didn't do nothing."
Zhou Yi asked curiously, "What did you do?"
"What a good birth." Xu Junjie said with a smile.
The two walked out of the bathroom with a smile, and Xu Junjie said, "What a coincidence, let's have a couple of drinks together."
"I have something else to do there. They are all colleagues and I can't leave. Maybe next time."
"That's fine. I'm not leaving anyway. Call Lao Yan and let's have dinner together. It's been a while since we last met."
"Okay, let's make an appointment in advance." Zhou Yi asked casually, "Who are you having dinner with?"
"My girlfriend."
"Huh? Didn't you say we're breaking up?"
Xu Junjie said proudly, "The one we broke up with is my ex-girlfriend, so you can't let me find a new girlfriend?"
"So soon?"
Xu Junjie smoothed his hair with both hands and said, "That's just my charm."
"Is your girlfriend Cheng Jiaojiao from Class 2 next door?"
Zhou Yi said this casually, and Xu Junjie was immediately shocked: "Fuck, how did you know that?"
The last time they met in the hospital, Xu Junjie mentioned that his girlfriend from college broke up with him, and Zhou Yi knew that they were definitely over.
Because the person who married Xu Junjie in the previous life was their high school classmate, Cheng Jiaojiao, a girl from the class next door. Zhou Yi attended their wedding with many classmates, so he naturally knew.
He just asked this casually, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"You're a master detective, no wonder you're on TV. Tell me, how did you know?" Xu Junjie asked curiously. He and Cheng Jiaojiao had only been together for three days, and no one else knew about it. How could Zhou Yi know? This guy must have become an immortal.
Zhou Yi glanced around the hotel lobby, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Isn't your girlfriend sitting right there? I'm not blind."
Xu Junjie took one look and immediately laughed: "Hey, so that's how it is. I really thought you were a detective. You scared me."
"Since you've seen it, I won't hide it from you anymore. Let's go and say hello to your sister-in-law."
Zhou Yi nodded: "Well, I have to go say hello to my sister-in-law."
"screw you."
Zhou Yi followed Xu Junjie and walked over. Cheng Jiaojiao, who was sitting on the seat, saw someone coming and looked at Zhou Yi with some confusion.
"Jiaojiao. Zhou Yi, do you remember that our classmates happened to be having dinner here as well?"
Cheng Jiaojiao stared at Zhou Yi for a few seconds: "Oh, I remember now, that guy you're close to, and you have another classmate, the three of you are always together."
"Yes, and there's Old Yan."
Zhou Yi immediately greeted her, "Long time no see. I didn't expect you to go from being a classmate to being my sister-in-law in the blink of an eye."
"What brother-in-law? Call me sister-in-law. I'm older than you."
"Come on, you're comparing your lunar birthday with my solar birthday. You're just playing a horse race."
Cheng Jiaojiao couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the two bickering, "You two are still as close as before."
"Zhou Yi, let's sit down and eat together."
"No, I won't interrupt your time together. I have colleagues over there."
Xu Junjie immediately said, "He's a criminal police officer at the Municipal Bureau now. He was on TV yesterday and is very busy."
Cheng Jiaojiao was surprised when she heard it, "Oh, that's you? I was wondering why you looked so familiar, but I just couldn't remember you."
Xu Junjie praised Zhou Yi a few words, but of course it was more of a joke between good brothers.
"Um... Zhou Yi, I want to ask, if I am harassed or threatened, can I call the police?" Cheng Jiaojiao asked tentatively.
Before Zhou Yi could say anything, Xu Junjie immediately asked nervously, "Are you being threatened?"
"No, it wasn't me. I have a friend, a girl, and her family has been experiencing some strange things lately, and she's quite scared. Since I happened to meet Zhou Yi, I thought I'd ask him about it."
Zhou Yi asked, "Are you being harassed or threatened? If you have evidence, you can call the police."
Cheng Jiaojiao shook her head. "She didn't call the police because she was afraid they wouldn't do anything. Anyway, this is a very strange thing. How about when you're free, I'll call her out and let her tell you herself?"
"It's not impossible..." Logically speaking, this kind of thing has no place for Zhou Yi to deal with. If he is really harassed or threatened, he can call the police and the local police station will send police to handle it.
But it doesn't hurt to listen to it. After all, it's in my personal capacity. It's to give face to Xu Junjie and also to help analyze the situation. Collecting evidence for this kind of thing is the difficult part.
Xu Junjie asked, "Which friend of yours? Do I know him?"
"You saw him once. We met the day before yesterday when we were shopping."
"Oh, it's the girl with fair skin and pretty face."
After Xu Junjie finished speaking, he realized that he seemed to have said something wrong, and quickly said, "I think I can introduce her to Lao Zhou. He doesn't have a girlfriend yet. By the way, what's the girl's name?"
"Han Jiajia." Cheng Jiaojiao answered casually.
"Han Jiajia?" Zhou Yi's nerves suddenly jumped, and he asked hurriedly, "Where do her parents work?"
Cheng Jiaojiao felt a little strange, but still answered: "I think he is in a savings bank. His father is still a small cadre."
Xu Junjie also asked curiously: "Zhou Yi, you don't know her, do you?"
Zhou Yi slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know him."
There is nothing special about the name Han Jiajia. Zhou Yi just thinks it sounds familiar.
But if his parents' workplace is added to the picture, the situation becomes different.
Because in his previous life, there was an unsolved case that left a deep impression on him.
In that case, Han Jiajia was not the victim.
But her parents are!
…
Zhou Yi returned to the box. He left a phone number for Xu Junjie and asked Cheng Jiaojiao to arrange for Han Jiajia to meet him as soon as possible.
Xu Junjie even teased him, saying that he was so impatient when he heard that someone was pretty.
Zhou Yi didn't argue. He needed to calm down and organize his thoughts.
Qiao Jiali seemed to notice that his condition was different before and after, and asked him in a low voice if something had happened to him.
"Sister Qiao, I want to take a day off tomorrow, but Captain Wu is not here..."
Before she could finish her words, Qiao Jiali smiled and said, "It's okay. We can ask him to sign the document when he comes back. You've been working hard in our Third Brigade for the past month. We didn't have this much work in the past six months. You deserve to have a good rest."
Zhou Yi was a little amused and helpless, he didn't want to do that either.
This month, following the trajectory of the previous life, there were indeed no other cases except the Du Xiaolin case.
Zhang Hui's case was handled as a missing person case and was not escalated to the municipal bureau at all.
Qian Lailai’s first kidnapping case was handled by the Qingshan Branch.
The Sanpo Village case and Qian Lailai's second kidnapping case were both caused by my appearance, which changed the original development trajectory.
The most important thing is that his purpose of asking for leave was not to rest, but to do something he had wanted to do for a long time.
After dinner, Qiao Jiali and Jiang Biao were responsible for sending them back to the guesthouse next to the Municipal Bureau, while Zhou Yi and Chen Yan went back by themselves.
When leaving the private room, Zhou Yi deliberately looked in the direction where Xu Junjie and the others had just sat, but no one was there.
The two walked towards the bus stop together, and Zhou Yi suddenly said, "Brother Yan, I have to thank you."
"Thank me? Thank me for what?" Chen Yan asked puzzledly.
"That day, Long Zhiqiang actually intended to drag me down with him."
Zhou Yi's casual words startled Chen Yan. "What?"
"Where did I get Fu Baoguo's phone number? Captain Liu just said that Fu Baoguo died in prison a long time ago. I called Captain Wu, but as soon as the call is connected, it will be exposed. If Long Zhiqiang knows I'm lying to him, he will definitely be furious and hurt the child."
Zhou Yi smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I definitely couldn't bear to watch him kill my child, so I ended up being a hostage. But he knew he couldn't escape. He didn't shoot me outright because he knew full well that if he moved the gun away from the child's head, you would have shot him."
After all, no matter how fast your hands move, it can never be as fast as your fingers pulling the trigger.
"So as long as I step forward as a hostage, he will take the opportunity to kill me. Even if he gets killed by you, he will think it's worth it."
It would be a lie to say that he wasn't scared. He was just reborn and didn't have any special abilities that made him invulnerable to swords and guns.
Chen Yan smiled and patted Zhou Yi's arm. "Why are you thanking me? Under those circumstances, how could I possibly let you get hurt? Otherwise, how could I be worthy of the title of 'Sharpshooter' you gave me?"
"Brother Yan, consider it as a debt I owe you. From now on..." Zhou Yi took a deep breath, "I will save you again in the future."
"Well, enough talking. My car is here. I'll leave first. Bye." Chen Yan said, waving goodbye.
Zhou Yi looked at his back, and some of his inner thoughts became more firm.
…
I got home and had a sound sleep.
Then early the next morning, Zhou Yi got up energetically, tidied the house, and went out with the money.
Uncle Ma in the message room downstairs watched him running back and forth several times throughout the morning, sometimes coming back carrying some things, and sometimes going out again.
Uncle Ma couldn't help but ask, "Zhou Yi, what are you doing going in and out?"
"It's okay. I live alone now, so I just bought some materials and renovated the house."
"It's fine, why are you going through all this trouble? It's really tiring."
Zhou Yi smiled at Uncle Ma and said, "Because I want to do something big."
