"I heard that Gu Tiezhu came to the factory yesterday to look for Gu Hongxing and his sister. I wonder if Mr. Zhao knows about this?" After Xu Zhiyuan realized his abnormality, he quickly smiled to make amends.
"Yes, Gutiezhu came to the factory yesterday and wanted to take the children away, but the children didn't want to go." This was the case, and there was no need for Zhao Yunxiang to hide it.
"Excuse me, but since Gu Hongxing and Gu Xiaofang already have family, why would they leave their children to you?" Xu Zhiyuan was quite curious about this matter. More accurately, Xu Zhiyuan was curious about Zhao Yunxiang. Zhao Yunxiang was rich and powerful, so why would she do such a thankless job as raising someone else's children? To Xu Zhiyuan, it was simply unbelievable.
"It's a long story," Zhao Yunxiang pondered for a moment, then continued, "Xu Gongan shouldn't be a chatterbox, and I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. Gutiezhu was imprisoned for a few years before, and he didn't live in his hometown after he was released. Three years ago, his mother passed away, and there was no one to take care of the child, so I..."
If Gutiezhu hadn't been so aggressive and caused such a mess, Zhao Yunxiang really wouldn't have wanted to talk about his personal affairs. After all, with his "black history" of imprisonment, Gutiezhu's life after release wouldn't be easy. As a fellow villager, Zhao Yunxiang didn't want to hurt Gutiezhu with her words.
"Ah? So that's how it is?" Xu Zhiyuan was a little stunned. The child didn't want to go with his father who had been in prison, so the father went to extremes and "snatched" the child back?
"Captain, we've made a new discovery!" A young police officer came to Zhao Yunxiang's office door and called out to Xu Zhiyuan. Zhao Yunxiang remembered that this officer was the one who had been at the factory gate with a large black dog. The reason was simple: the dog was so imposing, Zhao Yunxiang even gave the officer a few extra glances.
Xu Zhiyuan quickly stood up and walked out, whispering with the young policeman in the corridor.
Zhao Yunxiang shook her head, ignoring Xu Zhiyuan's rudeness. She opened the folder on the table and started to work on today's business.
Words like "powder" and "a big bag" were faintly heard from outside the door, but Zhao Yunxiang ignored them and quickly dealt with her business.
Xu Zhiyuan frowned after listening to the report from the young police officer Xiao Jin.
Xu Zhiyuan hadn't really intended to curry favor with the Zhou family during this police call, but now, things had escalated to such a level that Xu Zhiyuan hadn't anticipated. If this matter were to become public, it would be impossible for him to avoid offending the Zhou family, let alone currying favor with them. However, as a veteran police officer, Xu Zhiyuan would feel guilty if he allowed this to happen without doing anything.
Just now, Xiao Jin's big black dog found a large bag of powdery substance behind the dormitory building, weighing more than ten kilograms. Based on their experience in handling cases, it was suspected to be drugs.
Recalling the recent spate of drug trafficking cases in Kyoto, Xu Zhiyuan's heart churned and agonized, like it was being plunged into boiling oil. The higher-ups were taking that case very seriously, and every police station had received a document stating that no matter who was involved or what position they held, this case must be thoroughly investigated.
This package was found in Zhao Yunxiang's factory. He couldn't just sit there and do nothing, could he? Drug trafficking? Could such a thing be connected to this gentle and bright woman before him?
Xu Zhiyuan's mind flashed with Zhao Yunxiang's clear eyes, and he shook his head. He truly couldn't believe Zhao Yunxiang was even remotely connected to the word "drugs." But, didn't the older generation say, "It's difficult to depict the bones of a dragon or a tiger, and you can only know a person's face but not their heart." Who could guarantee that a beautiful woman wouldn't do bad things?
Xu Zhiyuan thought it over again and again, stamped his feet, and hurried downstairs with the young police officer Xiao Jin. He wanted to take the package back to the police station for an appraisal.
Zhao Yunxiang was immersed in the busy work. Xu Zhiyuan had already left, but Xiao Jin and several other police officers stayed behind.
An hour later, two military vehicles arrived at the gate of the Yunyun Garment Factory. Dozens of armed soldiers jumped out of the vehicles. One team quickly surrounded the Yunyun Garment Factory, while another team quietly lined up outside the factory.
The workers at the Yunyun Garment Factory were completely clueless. They were frantically working on their production tasks. With the holiday approaching in two days and the last batch of orders for the year about to be delivered, the workers were eager to finish their work and then go on holiday for the Lunar New Year.
Two men who looked like military officers jumped out of the car and walked quickly towards the Yunyun Garment Factory.
"Stop! What do you want to do?" The security guard just bent down to pick up something. When he looked up, he saw two soldiers "breaking" into the gate and shouted loudly.
A middle-aged military officer in his forties waved his hand, and the young man in his twenties next to him took a few steps forward and grabbed the guard's arm.
"What do you want to do?" The security guard was shocked, but his hands were busy. He used the force to move his body and avoided the young man's hand. Thanks to the few moves he had practiced in his youth, the security guard was almost sixty years old and still very agile.
"Xiao Yu, hurry!" the middle-aged officer shouted, a gloomy look on his face. Even the old gatekeeper had some tricks up his sleeve. Apparently, the chances of drugs escaping the base had increased exponentially. This time, while it might offend the Zhou family, the top brass would still see his loyalty, right?
The middle-aged officer was a little excited. Being able to wipe out the drug lord's lair was a credit enough for him to be promoted.
"Yes." The officer called Xiao Yu cheered up and used all his skills to fight with the gatekeeper. Finally, after a few moves, he knocked the gatekeeper to the ground.
The gatekeeper had only one arm, the sleeve of the other side bare. He was pinned to the ground by Xiao Yuyi in an awkward position. He raised half of his face and shouted, "Who are you? Which unit are you from? I'm telling you, this is not a place for you to run wild."
"Shut his mouth." The middle-aged officer gave the old man a look of disdain. What was so great about him? He wasted his skills by being indiscriminate and helping the evildoers.
"Yes, Deputy Commander." Xiao Yu took out a piece of rag from somewhere and stuffed the old gatekeeper's mouth tightly.
After dealing with the old gatekeeper, the middle-aged officer waved his hand and a team of soldiers rushed in from outside the door and quickly "rushed" towards various departments of the Yunyun Garment Factory.
At the Zhou family's old house, General Zhou and Cao Yunfei were playing chess, with Ouyang Xin watching from the sidelines. While it was called a game, it was actually General Zhou unilaterally "torturing" Cao Yunfei.
General Zhou was born into a family of scholars and was proficient in a few arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Before joining the revolution, Cao Yunfei was a peasant who could not even read a single word.
