1050.
Zhou Yu smiled and said, "You can't be so afraid of everything. We didn't do anything wrong. We just asked them for people. Is that wrong? We can't just accept whatever they say."
Besides, the enemy is involved in this. If we don't do it for our own people, we have to do it for the enemy, right?
Jian Ling curled her lip. "Why should we show it to them? They were the ones who did it. Don't they know that?"
Zhou Yu took his wife's hand and patted it. "They may know what's going on, but the Gu family hasn't reacted at all, which is abnormal. So, we need to make this normal. Only when Jiang Qiao is confirmed to be gone can the enemy feel more at ease."
Is Gu Zhixuan coming over? Didn't we say we were getting engaged?
Jian Ling nodded. "You don't want Gu Zhixuan to lead the way, do you?"
"Why not? The third generation of the Gu family has risen up. We can't rely on the adults for everything. Zhixuan is the most suitable to take the lead. Will you come here to take a look this time?"
Jian Ling nodded again. "That's what the old man said. As for whether they'll come, I can't guarantee. If all else fails, we'll just have to go to the woman's house and drag them away. I reckon they should arrive tomorrow. Let's wait and see. I should get up now—"
Jian Ling tidied herself up and hurried to the front to see Hou Diankui.
As everyone ate and chatted, Hou Diankui was more concerned about where Jiang Qiao had gone and whether she was alright.
Jian Ling shook her head. "I really don't know where she went—"
Jian Ling was right. After separating from Jiang Qiao, she didn't know where the girl was going next. Jiang Qiao didn't say either. Anyway, she would contact her if anything happened.
Hou Diankui sighed, "What kind of mess is this? Our perfectly healthy child got into trouble on the train? And those two people, they probably can't even explain what happened to them themselves. Why are they trying to pin it on our Jiang Qiao? This is not how you do things."
Let's hold off today. Tomorrow, we'll go find their leader and demand an explanation.
Zhou Yu was the kind of person who wasn't afraid of things getting out of hand. "I think this is the right thing to do. Regardless of whether we can get this explanation back, we need to have a stance on this matter."
If Jiang Qiao wanted to kill them, why bother on the train? He could have just killed them on the road. Why go through all that trouble?
Even if Jiang Qiao wanted to kill someone, do you believe that she wouldn't leave a trace? Such an obvious loophole, how could Jiang Qiao do that?
The enemy has seriously underestimated Jiang Qiao. Do they think we're all fools?
Hou Diankui smacked his lips. "I think such an obvious loophole is perhaps the only excuse the enemy can find to frame Jiang Qiao."
Although it's a bit clumsy, it works! Now everyone outside has a warrant for Jiang Qiao's arrest. I think either Jiang Qiao is already in trouble, or he's on the run—those are the only two possibilities.”
Jian Ling looked at Hou Diankui in surprise, "Old Hou, you can calculate that?"
Hou Diankui rolled his eyes at her. "What am I? I can't figure out Jiang Qiao. I'm doing analysis, understand?"
Zhou Yu sighed, "Your analysis is quite insightful and reasonable, but I hope it's the latter, otherwise, sigh—"
Hou Diankui glared at Zhou Yu and said, "Get out of the way. Jiang Qiao is a girl who survived a great calamity and is bound to have good fortune in the future. She won't just disappear like that. Otherwise, all our hard work back then would be in vain."
"Jian Ling, what have you all been busy with these past few days? Have you found any trace of Jiang Qiao?"
Jian Ling shook her head. "I've been running around looking for Cobra, but he's not someone that ordinary people can find. I don't have the ability to do that. The kids have also gone out for a stroll, hoping to find him in some hidden corner, but so far there's been no news at all."
Director Song and the others are also under investigation, so it's difficult to see them. We can't find anyone to speak up for Jiang Qiao.
"Old Hou, tomorrow, please take us with you. We're not going there to cause trouble; we just want justice. We can't do anything about the enemy's false accusations, but Jiang Qiao killed someone without even a legitimate reason. It's ridiculous."
Hou Diankui smiled and said, "Let's go tomorrow. Hurry up and eat. Xiao Zhou and I haven't rested yet. If Zhixuan and the others come, let them stay. The Gu family needs a representative, and he's the most suitable."
When Dong Kaizhen returned, Hou Diankui and the others had already gone to sleep in the back.
What Jianling was most concerned about was whether there had been any official statements after the person was sent out.
"Sigh, I sent it to the police station and also spoke with Zhao Anbang. As for how it was handled, I don't know. I was originally planning to see Song Shutian, but they wouldn't let me."
As for Director Jiang, that goes without saying. That's just the situation. Perhaps that person's testimony can be of some use?
As for the rest, I haven't found out. Let's rely on ourselves.
Dong Kaizhen was somewhat dispirited after not seeing Jiang Jinyu. If even someone like her wouldn't be allowed to see her, it was clear that the old director's condition was not good.
Jian Ling could tell that Dong Kaizhen was in low spirits, so she put her arm around her shoulder and said, "Sister Dong, don't worry. Give them time. You have to take things one step at a time. This has to be done little by little. Your old director and Jiang Qiao will definitely be fine."
That's what they said, but both of them knew in their hearts that they were now somewhat isolated and helpless, and they had no clue where to find those people.
However, when they saw Gu Zhengkai arrive with his son and nephew the next morning, not only Jian Ling but also Dong Kaizhen and the others found it unbelievable.
"Zhengkai, you've arrived?"
Gu Zhengkai smiled and said, "You all came to help ahead of time, so as your uncle, I can't fall behind, can I?"
After all, Jiang Qiao is my niece. This is unreasonable. We, the Gu family, are hiding in the back and letting you people stand up for us.
Besides, my son is getting engaged, and as his father, I need to come and meet his future in-laws. So, for these two reasons, I have no choice but to come this time.
Hou Diankui asked about Ma Liu and the others. "They're back. They arrived this morning. Uncle Liu said he'll come over to help once things are settled at home."
Hou Diankui waved his hand dismissively. "He doesn't need to. He just needs to stay home and keep watch for me. Zhengkai, you've come at the right time. Today I'm planning to find the relevant leaders to get an explanation for Jiang Qiao's matter. Let's go inside and talk—"
Gu Zhengkai and Zhou Yu shared the same idea; whatever the reason, the Gu family had to make this decision.
“My father said that no matter what the situation is with Jiang Qiao, I have reason to believe that she would not do such a thing, so we must demand that the higher-ups conduct a thorough investigation.”
Hou Diankui nodded. "That makes sense. However, Zhengkai, isn't it inappropriate for you to step in?"
Gu Zhengkai shook his head. "We've discussed this before. It's most appropriate for me to step in. No matter what Jiang Qiao's reason for not showing up, she must have her own reasons."
However, there is absolutely no fear or guilt here. We family people may not be able to say we are towering figures, but we are all upright people.
By doing this, we're indirectly cooperating with Jiang Qiao's side. Currently, we don't know if she's alive or dead, but as family, we can't back down from what we should do.
