Chapter 34 Evidence found!



Chapter 34 Evidence found!

The words of the old soldier outside woke the two of them up instantly.

Su Tang quickly distanced herself from Lu Xiao, feeling a burning heat on her face.

Why did she say that just now? It really makes me think too much.

Lu Xiao seemed to gradually realize what Su Tang meant.

He didn't dare to think about it too much, fearing that he was overthinking it, but he also wanted to know whether Su Tang's words were what he thought...

"I'm going to find Hu Jianjun."

Lu Xiao stood up and felt that his hands and feet were a little out of control.

Seeing that Lu Xiao was walking with his head turned, Su Tang's embarrassment disappeared and he even wanted to laugh.

She hasn't been hurt yet, but he's already so nervous.

"be safe."

When Lu Xiao was about to go out, Su Tang stood up and said something, but she never expected that after she finished speaking, Lu Xiao almost bumped into the door.

The man's ears turned red, and if you didn't know, you would think the two people were doing something in there.

Lu Xiao only felt that his heart was beating faster, thump thump thump, deafening.

It was just daybreak, and the air in the camp was still slightly cool with the night dew.

Lu Xiao went straight to Hu Jianjun's house.

The small courtyard allocated to Hu Jianjun in the camp was a bit remote, but it was very large.

Everyone takes such good care of them, but they are just useless and do bad things.

No matter who comes this time, they can't save them.

He stood at the door of Hu Jianjun's house, suppressed the bloodshot eyes and the fatigue from a night of running around, and raised his hand to knock on the door.

"Who is it?"

Hu Jianjun's voice came from inside with a hint of impatience.

"I'm Lu Xiao."

The door creaked open, and Hu Jianjun was wearing a vest and shorts, his hair messy from sleeping.

When he saw Lu Xiao standing at the door, he was obviously stunned for a moment, then put on his usual flattering and shrewd smile: "Hey, Captain Lu? So early? What do you want to talk to me about?"

His eyes quickly swept over Lu Xiao. His smile remained unchanged, but a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

Coming to see him in such a hurry must be bad news.

Lu Xiao didn't go in, but stood at the door, his tall figure almost blocking the entire door frame: "I have something to ask you. Can we find a place to talk?"

"What do you want to talk to me about? Come in, I just woke up and I'm a little messy..."

Hu Jianjun stepped aside and turned to walk towards the house.

As he spoke, he hurriedly pushed the crumpled quilt on the bed back in.

"No, just outside."

Lu Xiao stood in the yard and interrupted him directly, staring at him with deep eyes.

"Captain Lu, what do you want to ask?"

Hu Jianjun felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Lu Xiao, and asked with a dry laugh.

"Where were you the day before yesterday afternoon, during the break in the camp?"

Lu Xiao went straight to the point. His voice was not loud, but it hit Hu Jianjun's heart like a hammer.

Hu Jianjun works in the cafeteria and has two and a half days off a week.

Without having to cook, he can move around freely.

The smile on Hu Jianjun's face froze for a moment, and his eyes rolled around quickly.

"The day before yesterday? In the afternoon... Oh, I remember! I was sleeping at home! It wasn't my day off, so I was so tired that I slept until the evening."

"What's wrong, Captain Lu?"

The last words were spoken with a cautious tentativeness.

"Did you go to the black market, Xihe Beach in town?"

Lu Xiao stared into his eyes and said a sentence of affirmation.

"West River Beach?"

Hu Jianjun immediately raised his voice, looking aggrieved.

"How is that possible! Captain Lu, who is gossiping? I was really just sleeping at home that day! Lao Li and the others can all testify for me! Yes, Lao Li came to my house to drink that day, and even after getting drunk, he stayed at my house and refused to leave!"

He spoke quickly, eager to defend himself.

"Yeah?"

Lu Xiao's voice became deeper, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

"A man wearing a half-new blue jacket, gaiting with a slight shamble, with a fresh scar on the corner of his mouth, a missing front tooth, and a large black mole on the back of his right hand, bought some 'mountain goods' so good they'd make a rat kick its legs if it ate them from 'Scar-eyed Old Black' at the brick kiln."

Lu Xiao emphasized the word "mountain products" and fixed his eyes on Hu Jianjun like an eagle.

"Hu Jianjun, does this description sound familiar?"

The color on Hu Jianjun's face drained away completely, and the panic in his eyes almost overflowed.

He subconsciously wanted to refute, his voice changed: "Lu... Captain Lu! What do you mean?"

His reaction was a little too intense, with beads of sweat even oozing out of his forehead. He avoided looking at Lu Xiao, not daring to meet his gaze.

"Don't you understand what I mean? I just gave a simple description, Hu Jianjun, why are you panicking?"

Lu Xiao took a step forward, and the invisible sense of oppression made Hu Jianjun involuntarily take half a step back.

"The evidence I have can prove where the contents of Su Tang's medicine packaging bags came from."

"Also, you hid Hu Lili."

The last sentence made Hu Jianjun's legs go weak instantly, and he looked up suddenly.

"I sent Lili back to her hometown a long time ago. She's not here at all."

Thinking of Hu Lili's fate, Hu Jianjun insisted that he would never admit it unless the evidence was presented to him.

Lu Xiao clearly saw that Hu Jianjun was determined to fight to the end.

So he didn't say much, looked at Hu Jianjun meaningfully, and walked straight in.

"Lu Xiao! What are you doing?"

Lu Xiao ignored Hu Jianjun's shouting and rushed into the house with his tall figure and fierce momentum.

He had a clear goal in mind and walked to the old wardrobe in a few steps.

"Lu Xiao! What are you doing? What gives you the right to rummage through my things? I'm going to sue you!"

Hu Jianjun panicked and rushed forward to stop him, but was frozen in place by Lu Xiao's cold gaze.

Lu Xiao suddenly opened the wardrobe door, and a few clothes were stuffed inside.

He reached in, fumbled around in the corner, and pulled out a small cloth bag wrapped tightly in old newspapers.

As soon as he got the cloth bag, he weighed it and his eyes became even colder.

Hu Jianjun's face was as pale as paper. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a word.

How could Lu Xiao know so clearly what he hid in the deepest part of the closet?!

In front of Hu Jianjun, Lu Xiao peeled off the old newspaper layer by layer, revealing the gray coarse cloth inside.

When he opened the coarse cloth again, he found a small oil-paper bag inside.

He lifted a corner of the oil-paper package, and a pungent, bitter smell instantly filled the small room.

This smell doesn't seem to be anything ordinary.

"This 'mountain product' is so good that even mice would kick their legs if they ate it. Hu Jianjun, you hid it really well."

Lu Xiao's voice was low, with a hint of sneer: "You and your sister are really a family."

"It's not mine... I don't know! Who did this... who framed me?"

Hu Jianjun's legs were trembling, cold sweat instantly soaked his vest, and he was still making his last struggle.

"frame?"

Lu Xiao sneered and took out a small piece of paper from his pocket, on which was written an address and time crookedly.

"Behind the Xihetan Brick Kiln Factory, under the old locust tree, at three o'clock in the afternoon the day before yesterday. Scar-eyed Old Black took ten yuan from you and sold you this package."

"Human witnesses, physical evidence, who else do you want to blame, Hu Jianjun? Do you want me to invite Lao Hei to confront you right now?"
