There is a saying: If God wants to destroy someone, he will first make him crazy.

Pei Zheng never thought that he would be so accurate in predicting things.

After he and a few hooligans entered the police station, the police questioned him. Unlike the hooligans who were evasive, Pei Zheng was very cooperative. After telling them his name, age and address, he briefly explained the whole thing from beginning to end, "Comrade police, I didn't walk far when I felt someone following me today, so I took them around in circles and finally took action at the gate of the police station. Fortunately, you guys arrived in time, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

“…”

The young policeman who was taking Pei Zheng's statement twitched his lips. If they hadn't arrived in time, the ones who would have been in trouble would have been the group of people who had fought with this kid, right?

Pei Zheng: "I suspect that these people are not just robbing, but have planned it. Otherwise, why would they follow me as soon as I leave the house? Please call my parents."

After hearing Pei Zheng's age and address, the old policeman who was questioning him softened his attitude towards him. In addition, the thugs who had fought with Pei Zheng did not cooperate, so he basically believed Pei Zheng's words and said in a gentle voice: "After we finish taking the statement, we will notify your parents. First, tell me what was in your bag that was worth them following you and stabbing you?"

"Knowing what's inside will also help us recover the stolen items for you."

Pei Zheng seemed puzzled and said, "Comrade police, there are only a few books and a letter from a friend in the bag. I don't understand why they had to steal it."

"Letter? What letter?" The old policeman quickly grasped the key point, and the thugs who were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands also raised their ears to eavesdrop.

Pei Zheng rubbed his head and said innocently, "It's just a greeting letter between friends. My friend went to support the Northwest a few years ago. I was concerned about how he was doing, so I sent him a letter and he wrote me one back."

The old policeman looked at Pei Zheng meaningfully and asked him if he remembered what the man who ran away looked like.

This time Pei Zheng nodded vigorously: "I remember, a flat head, triangular eyes, a flat nose, a square face, very long and thick eyebrows, gray clothes and black pants, and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet."

"Okay, you can go make the call now," the old policeman turned to the young policeman who was taking notes and said, "Take him to the director's room to make the call."

"Okay," the young policeman handed the transcript to the old policeman and took Pei Zheng to make a phone call.

After the call was connected, Xiao Zhou's anxious voice came from the other end: "Is that you, Pei Zheng? Where are you? Are you injured?"

Pei Zheng said calmly, "It's me, Brother Zhou. I'm fine. Listen to me. I'm blocked in the police station and can't get out. Please ask my dad to come over and bring more people. I suspect they will attack the police station in desperation."

"Them?" Xiao Zhou exclaimed, realizing the seriousness of the situation. "Where are you? I'll bring someone to pick you up. Your dad brought someone to look for you 20 minutes ago."

Pei Zheng reported his location, Xiao Zhou asked him to protect himself, hung up the phone and set off immediately.

The young policeman who accompanied Pei Zheng to make the call was confused. What was this young man talking about? Someone was going to attack the police station? How come he didn't know?

The young police officer frowned, "Comrade, don't think you can talk nonsense just because you are young. Bring more people with you. Do you think the police station is a place for you to pick a fight?"

"If the people you called dare to come today, I will catch them one by one, and I will catch a pair if they come in pairs!"

Pei Zheng: “…”

"Comrade police officer, don't worry. The people I called were not bad guys. You just heard it. I asked the operator to transfer the call to the military. The people who called were all soldiers." Pei Zheng explained.

The policeman was skeptical and took Pei Zheng back to the office. He leaned over and whispered something in the old policeman's ear. The old policeman glanced at the gangsters who were being interrogated and said calmly, "Got it."

Time passed little by little, and the hooligans were still pretending to be stupid. They gave random names without telling their work unit or home address. At that time, they had no identity cards, so the police could not do anything to them except detaining a few people for investigation.

At the alley outside the police station, a square-faced man with triangular eyes bent over and said to a man with an ordinary face, "Brother Zhong, the brothers and that kid are in there. Should we rush in with the rest of the brothers?"

The man called Brother Zhong looked honest at first glance, but when he frowned, the contrast of this "honest" appearance was frightening. At least the square-faced man trembled under Brother Zhong's gaze.

Brother Zhong threw the schoolbag in his hand into the arms of the square-faced man and patted his shoulder. "Second brother, you came back with an empty bag. Didn't you think about why he let you run away alone?"

The second brother was completely confused and was shocked when he came to his senses. "Brother Zhong is saying that I was fooled by that guy? He let me go on purpose?"

"Did he guess that we would come back? Was he planning to arrest us all?" The second brother touched his head, "That's not right. There are only a few people in the police station. How could they catch us?"

Brother Zhong narrowed his eyes, "Don't forget who his father is. What if we rush in and get tangled up with the police, and Pei Jinan arrives right behind us... Besides, wouldn't Pei Zheng alone wipe out your entire army?"

When the second brother heard Brother Zhong mention Pei Jinan, the desperate criminal couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Even the most daring bandits were afraid of the regular army.

"Then let's retreat? No matter how many brothers are inside?" the second brother asked tentatively.

Brother Zhong took a breath and exhaled slowly, "Second brother, use your brain, if I don't care, why are they here?"

The second brother felt wronged, but dared not speak out. He said that rushing in to save people was wrong, and that it was wrong to ignore the brothers who were arrested. Neither this nor that was right. What should he do? What was the point of hiding here all the time?

Brother Zhong didn't want to listen to the second brother anymore, so he ordered directly: "Find someone to lead the police inside away, the more the better, try to get all the police inside to go out, and the rest of the people and I will get the things before Pei Ji'an arrives."

This was a good idea, and the second brother quickly agreed. He called a kind-looking younger brother behind him and asked him to make a false police report. "The bigger the story, the better. Just say... just say that someone was randomly hacking people with a knife in the street, killing anyone they saw."

"Go ahead." The second brother said and pushed his younger brother.

I walked towards the police station trembling with fear. When I got to the door of the police station, I shouted, "Oh no! Someone on the street has got a gun and is going to kill anyone he sees. Police comrade, go and save them."

In the police station, several policemen heard the noise and immediately stopped their work. One of them walked out and called the reporter, "Comrade, you said someone was stabbing people with a knife in the street ahead? Are you sure?"

"Really, really," the younger brother's voice was shaking, as if he was frightened, "Police comrade, please bring more people, that guy is crazy, I'm afraid we can't subdue him with too few people."

"Okay," the policeman returned to the station and said to the other policemen, "There was a stabbing incident on the front street. The station chief is not here. Lao Wang and Lao Zhang, the three of us will go out on the scene. Xiao Ding, you stay and watch them."

Xiao Ding was the young policeman who took Pei Zheng's statement.

The police left in a hurry. Pei Zheng seemed to be thinking about something. He stood up quietly and walked around the office. He walked to the door and closed it. Seeing Xiao Ding staring at him, Pei Zheng smiled shyly and said, "Comrade, it's a bit cold."

Xiao Ding retracted his gaze and scolded the thugs squatting on the ground, "Behave yourself and stop whispering!"

The gangsters didn't take the young policeman seriously at all. They were afraid of Pei Zheng. This guy was fighting ten people at once. Except for the boss, all the brothers were here together.

Pei Zheng walked to the window and closed the curtains. Xiao Ding frowned, "What's wrong? Are you afraid of the light as well as the cold?"

Pei Zheng: "...Guess?"

Xiao Ding: "I guess you are a bit serious. Come and sit down. This is a police station. Do you think it is your home?"

"No, I'm fine standing here. Comrade Xiao Ding, you don't have to worry about me." Pei Zheng leaned against the wall, slightly lifted the curtain and looked outside, until he saw several men walking into the police station yard. His heart sank, he saw that one of the men was 70% similar to the man in the portrait in Song Laixi's letter.

The big fish is caught.

Pei Zheng thought for a moment, then walked casually into the middle of the thugs, raised his sword and slashed down, knocking out three of them in the blink of an eye. The remaining seven reacted and hurriedly stood up to besiege Pei Zheng, but because they had been squatting for too long and their bodies were unstable, they could not stand still and were knocked out by Pei Zheng again.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Ding reacted and wanted to step forward to stop Pei Zheng, but while he was speaking, another person was knocked unconscious by Pei Zheng.

Seeing that they were no match for Pei Zheng, the remaining four gave up the fight and ran towards the door, but were blocked by Xiao Ding, “Stop right there!”

The four men looked at each other, clenched their fists and attacked Xiao Ding. Policeman Xiao Ding also took a stance and rushed forward, but unfortunately he was no match for the four of them. After just a few moves, he was thrown away by one of them and kicked to the ground.

At this time Pei Zheng took the opportunity to cut in from behind, sneaking up on two people and knocking them out. Only Pei Zheng, Xiao Ding and two thugs were left in the room.

"Da Hu, open the door, it's me!"

There was a knock on the door. It turned out that when Pei Zheng closed the door just now, he also inserted the bolt.

A look of surprise flashed across the face of the man called Da Hu, and he walked towards the door. Pei Zheng quickly stopped him and struggled with Da Hu. Seeing this, another gangster immediately ran to open the door, but was held tightly by Xiao Ding.

The sound of "bang bang bang" knocking on the door became louder and louder, but the door never opened. Brother Zhong, who was outside, heard the sound of fighting inside and kicked the door, but the door didn't open, so he kicked again.

After kicking three or four times, the door was finally kicked open. The second brother led people into the house and found his brothers lying on the ground. His face looked very unhappy. He had expected that the enemy would attack from inside and outside, but he did not expect that Pei Zheng would strike first. He underestimated Pei Zheng.

People had already entered. Da Hu and his men stopped and walked to Lao Er's side. A group of people blocked Pei Zheng and Xiao Ding in the house.

The second brother did not give the order to attack, but looked at Pei Zheng carefully and asked him: "Good boy, how did you know I was coming?"

Pei Zheng frowned and looked at him warily, "Who are you? How did I know you were coming? What do you mean?"

"Don't you know who I am?" The second brother said to Pei Zheng according to Brother Zhong's words, "Stop pretending and hand over the letter immediately."

Pei Zheng looked puzzled. "What letter? I was so angry at these hooligans for causing me to miss classes, so I locked the door of the police station when no one was there and wanted to teach them a lesson, but you guys rushed in."

"Are you guys a gang?"

Seeing that he was not pretending, the second brother wanted to turn around and ask Brother Zhong what to do next, but when he thought of what Brother Zhong said, he resisted the urge to turn around and continued to argue with Pei Zheng, "Stop talking nonsense, hand over the letter and I will let you go. Otherwise, hmph, you two may die here."

Brother Zhong in the crowd was observing Pei Zheng without relaxing for a moment. As long as Pei Zheng's eyes stayed on him for a moment, he could tell whether he was exposed or not.

And once confirmed, today will be the day of Pei Zheng's death.

But Pei Zheng never looked at Brother Zhong from beginning to end, and when his eyes swept over the person behind the second brother, his gaze did not linger.

This made Brother Zhong breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that the letter did not mention anything about him. That's right, the kid from the Song family was knocked unconscious by him from behind, so it was impossible to see his face. When he attacked the women from the Pei family, it was dark at night, and it was even more impossible to see what he looked like.

But to be on the safe side, we still have to find the letter.

Tiger said, "Boss, didn't you get the letter? I heard the guy tell the police that the letter was in the bag."

Lao Er slapped Tiger on the head and said, "If there really is a letter in there, will I come back?"

Pei Zheng suddenly understood what was going on after hearing their conversation. "You mean Song Laixi's letter? It is indeed in the bag. By the way, why did you steal a letter?"

"In the bag? Impossible, I searched several times and couldn't find it!" The second brother didn't believe it.

Pei Zheng shrugged, "Give me back my schoolbag, and I'll find the letter and give it to you."

The second brother was skeptical. He took the schoolbag from his younger brother and threw it to Pei Zheng. Pei Zheng slowly took out a book, then a utility knife, turned to a page of the book, slit it open along the seam, and a brown envelope appeared inside.

It turned out that Pei Zheng had glued two pages of the book together with glue, and the envelope was stuck between the pages. Even if the book was turned upside down and thrown, the envelope would not fall out.

The second brother twitched his lips. "It's just a letter. Why are you hiding it so carefully?"

"Well, it's a letter from a friend, and we're worried it might be lost," Pei Zheng explained with a smile, "Brother, can you let us go now?"

"No, they attacked the police and ran to the police station to cause trouble. We can't just let them go!" Comrade Xiao Ding objected immediately.

The second brother sneered, "Now we won't let you go."

He ordered his men to take the envelope from Pei Zheng. After receiving the letter, he looked very pleased. He looked at Pei Zheng with disdain and said, "We got the letter. Let's go!"

Pei Zheng calmly grabbed Xiao Ding's arm and protected him behind him.

"No!" The second brother suddenly stopped when he reached the door, "The thickness of this letter is wrong."

The second child finally got smart and quickly opened the envelope, but found it was empty. Damn it, he was fooled by this kid again!

The second brother threw the letter to the ground angrily and spat, "If you don't accept my toast, I'll drink the wine for you. Brothers, serve me."

Pei Zheng no longer maintained his conciliatory attitude and raised his head arrogantly, "Oh, you just realized it?"

The second brother said angrily, "Hold him down, the letter is still with him."

It was not easy to catch Pei Zheng. Pei Zheng was very agile. Even if several people surrounded him, he could quickly jump onto the table to avoid their pursuit in the next second. More than a dozen people were led by him, and the office was in chaos.

Brother Zhong stood in the corner staring at Pei Zheng. Suddenly, he realized something was wrong. First of all, it was the letter. Since Pei Zheng said it was just an ordinary letter, why was it hidden so secretly?

If the letter is not important, why is there no letter in the envelope? What is the significance of Pei Zheng hiding the letter in three burrows?

There is only one possibility, this letter is very important, and all Pei Zheng is doing now is - delaying time.

Brother Zhong's face changed and he immediately turned around and ran out the door. Seeing that the protagonist had run away, Pei Zheng quickly dealt with the minions that were pestering him and chased after him.

Fortunately, the policeman who was tricked out of the house and Xiao Zhou and his men arrived in time. Together with Pei Zheng, they blocked Brother Zhong from the front and the back. Brother Zhong gritted his teeth and fought desperately, but was captured by Xiao Zhou and fell to his knees.

The minions in the office were also captured by the police and warriors.

"Comrade Lu Nong, can I use the toilet in your home?" the triangular-eyed woman next to Zhao Xin suddenly said.

Lu Nong: "Of course you can. There is a toilet on the first floor, around the corner from the kitchen. You can use it as you like."

The woman with triangular eyes gave Zhao Xin a look, then got up and went to the restroom.

Zhao Xin took a sip of tea, and as if she suddenly thought of something, she said, "Comrade Lu Nong, I just saw the letter our Song Laixi sent to Pei Zheng this morning. This child was angry with us and hasn't sent a letter home to report his safety for several years. His father is worried about him every day. I want to ask, have you read the letter? Do you know how Laixi is doing?"

"What letter?" Lu Nong shook his head regretfully. "I hadn't gotten up yet when Pei Zheng left. Did Lacey send a letter to Pei Zheng?"

She was telling the truth.

Zhao Xin smiled, lowered her head and took another sip of tea, put down the cup and said, "Oh, look at me, I drank too much tea, and Sister Su and I have a problem. We need to pee urgently, so let me borrow your bathroom."

The bathroom on the first floor was being used by Mrs. Su, and she hadn't come out yet. If Zhao Xin wanted to use it, she had to go to the second floor, where the study was.

Zhao Xin thought that Lu Nong might stop her from going upstairs, but she didn't expect Lu Nong to say calmly, "I'm not feeling well, can I let my godmother take you there?"

Zhao Xin narrowed her eyes, unable to see clearly Lu Nong's tactics, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, so she followed Mother Wu up to the second floor.

Mother Wu was walking in front, and Zhao Xin was following behind her. As soon as she was out of everyone's sight and turned the corner, Zhao Xin knocked Mother Wu unconscious with a knife, caught her and put her to the ground.

Then she found the study and discovered that the door was not locked. A look of surprise flashed across Zhao Xin's face, but she didn't have time to think about it and pushed the door open.

There are two tables in the study. One desk is obviously used by men, while the other is much smaller and more delicate. There is a cactus pot and a family photo on the desk.

Zhao Xin's expression became more and more complicated. Lu Nong actually shared a study with Pei Jinan. This not only meant that Pei Jinan really doted on Lu Nong as rumored by the outside world, but also meant that she might get nothing from this trip.

Given Pei Jinan's serious nature, he would never let his guard down if there were confidential documents hidden in the study.

The door of the study was not locked, and anyone in the house could enter and exit the study freely. Even an outsider like her could get in easily, which meant that there were no important documents in the study at all.

Zhao Xin gritted her teeth and thought that since she was already here, it would be worth the trip if she could find something useful. She quickly started searching, not leaving out a single corner.

Just when Zhao Xin finally found a file after much trouble and was about to open it with joy,

"What are you doing?"

A man's hand grabbed Zhao Xin's hand that was opening the document.
