Director Hou sat in his chair, feeling both angry and heartbroken, looking at An Moxue.
Director Hou asked, "What do you plan to do?"
"Of course, we should conduct a full investigation and retaliate. After all, I've been threatened, so I have to take some self-defense measures!" The pitiful image of needing protection was gone, and Director Hou looked at his precious son with mixed feelings.
"Director, could you lend me some manpower? I don't need to investigate much, just the main members of the Li family." An Moxue said, taking out a small porcelain bottle of tea from her bag, brewing a cup for herself, and handing it to Director Hou.
"Director, please try this. This is tea I just got yesterday. If you like it, I'll give you this whole bottle as a gift."
Director Hou initially seemed unconcerned, but after taking a sip, he reduced it to a small sip, savoring it slowly. After a while, he took another small sip.
After downing a small cup of tea, he lowered his head. That little devil, using tea to keep him hanging on, how awful!
If the mountain won't come to me, I'll go to the mountain. Since Director Hou didn't speak, An Moxue took the initiative to ask, "Director, how's this tea? Does it suit your taste?"
Director Hou glared at her but didn't say anything. She asked shamelessly, "Director, could you lend me a few people? Look at me, I have no one to take care of me except you. I'm so pitiful!"
"Stop talking nonsense. You just called Chief of Staff Zhang Jing while I was here, and I still remember how aggrieved you looked! I'm not blind!"
An Moxue flattered him, offering him the can of tea. "Director, isn't this just a precaution? After all, when it comes to investigating things, our National Security Bureau is the real professional, the military can't compare."
"Alright, go back and wait! I'll let you know when I have news in a few days. Keep this recording pen." Director Hou waved his hand dismissively.
"Alright! You wait, I'll treat you to some good tea later. This was originally for my future grandfather, but I'm giving it all to you." An Moxue said, picking up her backpack and leaving Director Hou's office.
Not long after An Moxue left the office, Director Hou made several phone calls, brewed several cups of tea in his office, thought for a long time, and finally made a decision. He made a phone call, hung up the phone, and quickly left the office with a voice recorder.
When An Moxue returned home, before she even entered the yard, she saw Wu Sicheng running out from outside the gate. Upon seeing her, he threw away his cigarette butt, ran to the car, and visibly relaxed, a smile appearing on his face.
"Mo Xue, you're back."
"Okay, let's go inside and talk." Wu Sicheng stepped back, and An Moxue drove the car into the yard.
When she got out of the car, she noticed several cigarette butts on the ground in her yard, which was unusual for her. As she got closer to Wu Sicheng, she also noticed a faint smell of tobacco on him.
"Why are you smoking now?"
Where did you go?
Seeing his nervous expression, An Moxue chuckled. "Don't be nervous. I just made some arrangements. After all, as an orphan, I'm terrified of being dumped in the wilderness. Isn't it better to live a good life?"
Seeing that she could still joke around, Wu Sicheng knew that she didn't take the matter too seriously and was glad she wasn't angry with him.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"Have you got a meal yet?"
The two of them spoke at the same time.
"No."
"without."
"Come on, I'll take you to the police station. After that, I'll take you to eat at a private restaurant." Wu Sicheng said, taking An Moxue's hand and walking out. An Moxue called out into the house, "Auntie, Wu Sicheng and I are going out to eat."
"Okay, I understand," came Aunt Ma's voice from inside the house.
The two got into the car and started the engine. Wu Sicheng said to her, "Mo Xue, don't worry. This time, I will definitely not let the Li family off easy. I will not stop until I have skinned them alive."
"Yeah, just like I thought. I think so too. It's been a long time since anyone threatened me like this, it's quite novel."
The two looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts in tacit agreement.
Wu Sicheng drove An Moxue to the Kyoto Public Security Bureau.
An Moxue looked at him and said, "My grandfather has already called. Let's just make a note of it. Then I'll take you to eat."
The two went inside and headed straight for the director's office. Director Shen was still in his office, sighing that when gods fight, mortals suffer. When he saw An Moxue, he was still somewhat incredulous. "Moxue? You're the one who came to report the case? You and Chief Wu's grandson?" Director Shen looked at An Moxue and then at Wu Sicheng.
An Moxue searched through her memories, finding a close comrade-in-arms of her father in a corner. The name overlapped with the person in front of her, and she replied somewhat uncertainly, "Uncle Shen?"
When Director Shen saw An Moxue, his earlier complaints had vanished, replaced by heartache. He said, "Sit down and tell me the details later."
Then, he picked up the phone and dialed an internal line, "Xiao Liu, come in and give a statement. Someone called the police."
Xiao Liu quickly came in with a notebook and pen. Seeing that An Moxue and Wu Sicheng were both fine, he was still suspicious and wondered why they had called the police.
These two people were so good-looking that she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Director Shen coughed and said, "Alright, we can begin."
Then, Xiao Liu looked away and saw An Moxue take out her ID and a bunch of awards and certificates from her bag. She then began to tell the whole story. After she finished, she took out the recording pen and said only one sentence: "I believe that our country and government will not allow some people to use their power to be high and mighty, to satisfy their own selfish desires, to do whatever they want, and to disregard the laws of the country."
After everyone in the room had listened to the recording, Director Shen said, "Xiao Liu, you're done recording, you can leave now!"
As Xiao Liu went outside, suppressing his surprise, he exclaimed, "Wow! What a huge melon!"
Only three people remained in the office. Director Shen asked, "Mo Xue, what do you plan to do about this?"
An Moxue said righteously, "Uncle Shen, just do things officially. But when you're investigating, could you have our comrades wear uniforms and go to the military headquarters' family compound in the morning, when everyone is on their way to work? We could also explain the background and consequences. It would be great if they could look a little serious."
“Okay, no problem. I’ll send two people tomorrow morning, one eloquent and the other impartial.”
An Moxue smiled broadly and said, "Thank you, Uncle Shen. I didn't know you were here before, but now that I know, I'll bring you a gift when I get back. I ate a lot of the food you bought when I was little."
Director Shen said with some dissatisfaction, "You still remember! You haven't even contacted me all these years, isn't that a bit much? What, do you think I'm someone who's afraid of being implicated?" But everyone could feel the warmth in his words.
An Moxue chuckled foolishly. Director Shen said, "Come to our house for dinner sometime. Your aunt still mentions you from time to time!" As he spoke, he wrote down a detailed contact address and handed it to An Moxue.
"You can't not come! You know what kind of person your aunt is, I'll definitely tell her when I get home."
"good."
