Chapter 170
"Team leader Qi, are we just going to let that old man go like that?" As Officer Qi left the room, a trace of indignation appeared on the expressionless face of the man in the Zhongshan suit behind him.
"Don't worry, dig something out of him. Isn't that the reason I came here? This matter was given to me by the Qingchu, and I can't let him down." Officer Qi frowned slightly when he heard his words. He was originally a very capable person, but because of someone he offended, he ended up sitting on the bench for a year. This time, he finally got an important task, how could he easily give up this opportunity?
Hearing his team leader's answer, the middle-aged man's expression eased a little. "But Old Yang is very tight-lipped. It's hard to make a breakthrough from him!"
Officer Qi also showed a hint of sneer on his face. "That's because the information we prepared is not enough. The reason why he is so confident is that he only sees that I have no evidence."
"Should we tell Director Zhong about this news? Maybe there is a way without him?" The middle-aged man thought for a moment and suggested.
Upon hearing this, Officer Qi shook his head and said, "Before this matter can be controlled, we'd better solve it ourselves." As he said that, he looked up and saw the scrap collector who had been in the same place with Old Yang before. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Are you Xu Qing?" He came to the buyer casually.
"Yes... yes, leader." Xu Qing put down the sugar jar in his hand and pulled his clothes awkwardly.
Seeing him like this, Officer Qi smiled and patted him on the shoulder. "Young man, don't be so nervous. I'm just asking casually."
Xu Qing heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "The leader is right. What do you want to ask?"
Office clerk Qi nodded in satisfaction. "Yes. Not bad, you are worthy of being a good friend. Do you know why I am looking for you?"
Xu Qing was stunned for a moment when he heard this. "Leader, I know you want me to go find those banned books that Old Yang hid."
"Then tell me, when you were accompanying them all the way, did you meet any suspicious people?" Officer Qi showed an amusing look on his face, and he stared at Xu Qing, wanting to see what Xu Qing would say.
When Xu Qing was looked at by his eyes, he shuddered all over. He did not dare to raise his head or speak. He just stood there with his head down. "To be honest, our Pingxian purchasing station is not big or small, and there are many people coming and going every day. I have checked the people I met in the villages I went to the other day. I also looked at what they were holding in their hands at that time, and there was nothing wrong when I checked.
Before, there were a few people who left a deep impression on me. While others were looking for leisure books, they were looking for elementary school books. Jiang He from Wafang Village was one of them. ”
The reason why he was a little impressed by Jiang He was mainly because she looked better than the young girls and wives he had seen.
When Officer Qi heard this, he was delighted. It seemed that he had not missed anyone. He was not afraid that he would lie, so he just waited quietly. "Is there anyone who left a particularly deep impression on me?"
"Leader, these are the people I saw, but I don't know if Old Yang has met anyone else in private." Seeing that he didn't look angry, Xu Qing continued boldly, "I remember that Old Yang had bundled a few books. I asked him about it at the time, but then there was something wrong at home, so I went back. When I went to check the next day, the books were gone. I thought someone else had taken them away. You should know that Old Yang is in charge of this purchasing station, and I am just assisting at most."
"You mean the books were still where you came from before you left? But when you came back, the books were gone?" Officer Qi frowned, looking very anxious.
"Yes, leader. I did ask about it at that time, but Old Yang had a weird temper and he scolded me. So I didn't dare to ask again." Xu Qing said with certainty.
