Chapter 51: Seeking Danger (Part 3)
Xia Beibei turned around and ran out, but just as she closed the door, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground with a bang. Her breathing became rapid and her body spasmed violently. A young criminal policeman not far away saw her and ran over.
"Boss Bei, are you okay?"
Xia Beibei's face was as pale as paper, cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her teeth were clenched tightly as if in spasm. She tried to stand up, but her limbs were too stiff to move. She could only look at the young detective with red eyes.
"Shen Yunfei... call Shen Yunfei over here, quickly... quickly!"
Seeing her like this, the young criminal policeman did not dare to delay and turned around and ran away. The entire criminal police brigade could hear his voice.
“Brother Shen!”
Soon, Shen Yunfei rushed over, followed by Yang Lin and Lin Qi. Seeing her like this, the three of them were shocked.
Lin Qi quickly squatted down, looking worried, "Boss Bei, what's wrong? What happened?"
Xia Beibei leaned in her arms, took two deep breaths, and grabbed Shen Yunfei's arm.
"Zhou Xun is in Yangcheng, Huai City. Yunfei, take your people there first. I'll go tell Director Dong that he...he might be in danger. Please save him. In case...in case of an accident, he resists or...I want him alive."
Shen Yunfei patted her head soothingly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I understand. I will bring a few of my own people with me and will bring Zhou Xun back to you safely."
Yunshi, South Bank Coffee.
Gao Bochuan and Chu Yang had temporarily stopped talking. They sat quietly, smoking one cigarette after another.
After a long time, Gao Bochuan put out his cigarette and took another cigarette from the cigarette box on the table. There was still one cigarette in it. He paused and then threw the cigarette box to Chu Yang.
“I thought we would be good brothers for life.”
Chu Yang put the last cigarette in his mouth and lit it. His eyes were somewhat complicated, but his tone was calm, as if he was mocking himself.
"Good brothers? Your dad, my dad, and Zhou Xun's dad were all good brothers. But in the end, Zhou Mingwei harmed my dad for his own selfish desires, and your dad just stood by and watched."
After saying that, he looked up at Gao Bochuan and slowly blew out a smoke ring.
"Of course, considering your father's position and personality, remaining neutral is the most correct choice. So, I have never blamed him. Therefore, our friendship is still there. It's just that, Bochuan, you think that good brother is a positive word, but I think it is a negative word."
Gao Bochuan's face was as gloomy as water, and his voice was filled with regret. "If Uncle Chu were still alive, he would want you to take another path. In fact, you have other choices."
Hearing this, Chu Yang wanted to force out a disdainful and sarcastic smile, but his expression gradually became distorted. The cigarette ash fell on his hand, instantly burning his skin red.
Another way? What are the other options?
Not necessarily. From the day his father had the accident, he had no choice. His path had long been blocked because of his father's death.
Back then, my father went against everyone's advice and married my mother, who was not of the same social class as me. My grandmother never liked my mother, especially after that incident, she hated her to the extreme.
But is the mother wrong? No, she is not wrong. She is obviously the biggest victim.
My father was the most powerful anti-drug police officer in the southwest area of Yun City. During his tenure, he solved hundreds of cases and seized tons of drugs. He was a living devil that drug dealers trembled in fear.
As a result, all drug dealers hated my father. They could not take action against my father, so they turned their attention to my mother. A drug trafficker leader kidnapped my mother, and they used my mother to threaten my father to return the confiscated drugs and release their people.
When faced with a difficult decision, in order not to embarrass her father, her mother attempted suicide several times and was injected with drugs by a drug dealer. In order to save her mother, the drug dealer detonated a grenade next to his ear.
In addition to leaving a scar on his face and gradually weakening his hearing, the experience also left him with an indelible memory.
Before detonating the grenade, the drug lord raped my mother in front of my father. At that time, my mother was five months pregnant.
After waking up, the mother was mentally damaged and had to suffer from drugs day and night. She wanted to die. If it weren't for my father watching over her all the time, she would definitely not have survived. After she finally quit drugs, she could only rely on tranquilizers and sleeping pills to stabilize her emotions.
After the incident, in order to prevent further retaliation from drug dealers and to better treat their mother, they temporarily went to live with their second uncle abroad.
My father and mother have been in love since high school and have been together for many years. They never left each other even though their families opposed it. No one could understand my father's feelings when he watched his mother suffer every day, and no one knew how much effort he put in to find the whereabouts of the drug lord.
Eight years ago, he caught the drug dealer himself, but he paid a heavy price.
In the alley behind the bar, a drug dealer took a hostage. The hostage reacted too violently, angering the drug dealer, who cut his neck with a knife and bled profusely. When my father tried to grab the knife, he accidentally killed the drug dealer.
When the police arrived, there were only the father and two dead men on the ground. There were fingerprints of the father and the drug dealer on the handle of the knife. There was no surveillance in the alley and no witnesses.
No, how could there be no one in such a bustling alley?
Li Xiaochun was only seventeen years old at the time, and the guy she was hooking up with was a young, rich second-generation guy. The two of them hid in an alley and did indecent things that no one could see.
Chen Yong's car was parked nearby, and he was having sex in the car behind his wife's back. And Zhao Yongde was the most shameless one. The drug dealer originally pointed the knife at him, but he pushed the woman in his arms to the drug dealer as a hostage.
There was also Fu Wei, who was also nearby making phone calls and using the Xia family's affairs to continue blackmailing Zhou Mingwei.
These people are all eyewitnesses, but not witnesses because no one is willing to come out to testify. After the drug dealer killed the hostage, he slashed around with a knife. My father accidentally killed the drug dealer in order to save them.
But in the end, no one was willing to tell what happened at that time. Even when the police later found them through some means, these people all said that the drug dealers and the hostages were killed by their father.
They were still looking for evidence, but a few days later they received news that my father had committed suicide in prison out of fear of punishment. After that day, my grandmother hated my mother even more and said that it was my mother who killed my father.
The last time he saw his father, his father's eyes were red and he told him to stay by his mother's side at all times. He knew his father's worries and fears because his mother's suicidal tendencies were becoming more and more serious.
Her condition had improved under her father's care, but her father's death caused her to collapse again. Coupled with her grandmother's verbal abuse and mental torture, she went crazy.
He took her to see many psychologists and even hypnotized her, but her psychological trauma was too severe and she was still in a daze after hypnosis.
In order to pay for his mother's medical treatment, he borrowed money from his second uncle, rented a house, moved his mother in, hired a nanny to follow her around, and then worked hard to make money.
There was a time when he almost couldn't hold on any longer. If Mo Tan hadn't been with him all the time, he might have gone crazy like his mother.
However, the mother still passed away. That night, she was in a particularly good spirit, not crazy, and always had a smile on her face. She cooked for him, helped him clean the room, washed his clothes, and took him to sit on the balcony to chat with him.
She talked about her and her father when they were young, and then told him that if he met a girl he liked in the future, he must cherish her. Finally, she advised him to take care of his health, not to drink too often, not to stay up late, forget the past, and live a good life.
Unfortunately, that night he was immersed in the joy of his mother's improvement and did not realize that she was leaving her last words. If he had known earlier, he would not have stopped her from committing suicide, because he knew that she missed his father too much.
He just regretted that when she wanted to hug him, he didn't hold him a little longer. He would tell her that jumping off the building was too painful, and he could go find Mo Tan, who had medicine that would not let her suffer and would allow her to leave peacefully.
