Chapter 61: Good Luck
Gu Changhai's words made Jiang Biao jump up.
"Old Gu, please don't lie to us."
Gu Changhai said, "Why would I lie to you? If you don't believe me, go in and see for yourself. There are dozens of boxes of imported high-end cigarettes piled up behind the factory. They are all smuggled goods. The value of the goods here is at least 200,000 or 300,000 yuan."
This time, not only Jiang Biao was shocked, but also Zhou Yi and Qiao Jiali were shocked.
Especially Zhou Yi, who had followed the bald man before, mainly because the bald man revealed that he had a boss when he was clamoring.
You have to know that ordinary gangsters don’t call others boss. If they do call someone boss, they call him “big brother” or “big brother”.
So experience told him that there was something behind the bald head, and if he cast a long line, he might be able to catch a big fish.
But he didn't expect that it would involve a case of smuggling imported cigarettes.
You have to know that this is Hongcheng, not the coastal area or the south, so smuggling cases are not common.
This is also the reason why Gu Changhai is so excited. Even if he moved to the provincial capital, he would not be so surprised.
"A mafia gang, a high-value smuggling case, and then there's the pharmaceutical counterfeiting case from a few days ago. Hey Biaozi, has your Captain Wu secretly visited the Guandi Temple recently? Otherwise, why is the Third Brigade so lucky?"
"I don't know whether Captain Wu has ever been to the Guandi Temple, but he did find a lucky star for our Third Brigade, and that's this guy."
As he spoke, Jiang Biao patted Zhou Yi on the back and laughed.
As a result, a palm hit the wound on Zhou Yi's back, and Zhou Yi screamed.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are you okay?" Jiang Biao was startled and then reacted.
"Brother Biao, the most serious injury I suffered today was this slap from you." Zhou Yi said helplessly.
"Be careful next time, be careful next time."
Qiao Jiali said, "Teacher Gu, I'll trouble you with the rest of the work. I'll take these two guys away to avoid causing you any more trouble."
"Hey, no way. Go back and rest first. When your Captain Wu comes back, I'll have to praise them both to him. Your Third Squadron is really full of talented people."
Gu Changhai turned to leave when he suddenly remembered something and turned back to say, "Oh, there are a few victims still in the police station. Their statements have been taken. They claim to be Xiao Zhou's relatives. Do you want to release them?"
Of course, he was talking about his second uncle's family.
Gu Changhai said this to save face for the Third Brigade.
The three of them looked at Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi said, "Teacher Gu, these are indeed my relatives. Zhou Jianjun and Wang Cui'e can be released for now; they have nothing to do with this matter. As for Zhou Kai, if possible, lock him up for one night. Although he was tricked, he participated in gambling after all, so he needs to learn his lesson."
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
…
When Zhou Yi returned home, he found his parents sitting anxiously at the dinner table. There were two dishes on the table, covered with bowls.
"Son, you're back. I'll go heat up some food for you." The mother stood up immediately.
"Mom, don't worry, sit down first."
Zhou Yi pulled a stool over and sat down, then took out the letter of commitment from his pocket and placed it on the table.
My father immediately picked it up and looked at it carefully, and my mother also came over.
After a while, my father asked, "Is this really signed by your second uncle?"
Zhou Yi nodded.
The mother asked, "Didn't Wang Cui'e make a fuss?"
Zhou Yi poured himself a glass of water, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Don't ask about the specific process. It's written in black and white anyway, not to mention that there are second uncle's fingerprints."
"When Grandpa is discharged from the hospital, bring him to our house to stay for two days. When Second Uncle and his family vacate the old house, you can move in with Grandpa. After all, there is much more space there."
"What about you?" asked the mother.
"I live here."
My father seemed to be thinking about something. After a moment's silence, he nodded and said, "You are old enough to get married. Your mother and I were worried about the house before, but now it's settled. This house will be left for you to use when you get married."
Then he turned to his mother and said, "I remember you said last time that Ms. Liu from the Finance Department wanted to introduce her daughter to Zhou Yi?"
"Yeah, it was about half a year ago. She heard that Zhou Yi went to work at the police station, and she mentioned it then."
"How about you ask Sister Liu tomorrow and let Zhou Yi meet her daughter?"
Zhou Yi was anxious. They were talking about the house, so how did it become about introducing someone to someone?
But just as he was about to speak, his mother spoke first. "I'm not going."
"Hey, why don't you go?"
"Our Zhou Yi is now working in the city's criminal police department. How can her daughter be worthy of our son?"
Zhou Yi was stunned. He didn't expect his father to actually nod in agreement. "That makes sense. Then ask around when you have time. I want someone who has a good job and is not bad looking."
"It's better to have a bigger butt so that you can give birth to a son."
"Your idea is wrong. It's a new era now. Boys and girls are the same."
The two of them started chatting with each other, completely disregarding the feelings of Zhou Yi, the "party involved".
Zhou Yi helplessly carried two plates of food into the kitchen.
Listening to the parents outside imagining their dreams of taking care of their grandchildren after retirement, Zhou Yi's heart slowly sank.
Because in my previous life, my marriage life was not happy.
His ex-wife was originally a civil servant, introduced by the leader of the bureau at that time. She was good in both work and appearance, and she and Zhou Yi were a perfect match.
From falling in love to getting married, it is a fairly standardized process. There are no conflicts, but there is also no passion.
As if he was taking an exam, Zhou Yi filled in the standard answers one by one.
After marriage, the couple had a son. Although their life was ordinary, it was also quite stable.
Especially the old couple, they doted on their grandson so much that they wanted to pick the moon from the sky.
The problem started when his ex-wife resigned from her job and went into business. In fact, Zhou Yi discovered shortly after they got married that his ex-wife was a very ambitious person. She was not satisfied with her current life and status and was determined to move up.
To a certain extent, it can even be said that the reason she chose to marry Zhou Yi was that she wanted to use his network of contacts to improve herself.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi was just a conscientious policeman. He was not good at flattery and did not have many so-called connections.
My ex-wife was very dissatisfied with this.
After reaching a bottleneck within the system, my ex-wife resolutely resigned and went into business.
Zhou Yi had to admit that she was indeed a strong woman, and such a person could not be contained in this world.
After entering the industry, she was like a fish in water, her career was on the rise, and within a few years she became a famous female entrepreneur.
Zhou Yi thus became Mr. XX's lover and his accessory.
Zhou Yi was busy with cases and his ex-wife was busy with business. Many times, the two might not see each other for a week. The already thin relationship soon started to show signs of trouble.
In the end, the ex-wife's divorce agreement put an end to this marriage.
The custody of the son was given to the ex-wife, who generously said that Zhou Yi did not need to pay child support.
At first, Zhou Yi could still visit his son every week, but a year later, his ex-wife sent his son abroad to study in the name of a better educational environment.
In the pot, two dishes placed on the chopstick holder are being heated over water.
Outside, the parents were happily imagining their future life.
Zhou Yi was wondering what he should do in this life.
