Seeing her brother's panic, Lan Cai's heart sank as she was the older sister. She asked with great concern, "What's wrong with you, brother? What happened? Tell me quickly. Don't worry, I will definitely help you."
Captain Lan said anxiously, "Sister, please don't waste time. It was you who ordered me to arrest people everywhere, and ended up offending some important people. They reported my affairs to the higher-ups. Luckily, someone I knew gave me a heads-up and let me escape. I need to leave Jing City as soon as possible, otherwise I will be arrested."
Captain Lan knew that if he was caught for the things he had done, he would definitely be sentenced. The best outcome would be life imprisonment and being sent to a farm for reform. If the matter was investigated further, he would most likely be left with nothing.
Only then did Lan Caixin realize that her selfishness had put her brother in such a big crisis. There were only two people she cared about most in this world, her youngest son and her younger brother.
Their parents passed away early, and the two siblings grew up with great difficulty and suffered a lot. While working for the Zhao family, they were noticed by Zhao Jian's father and became Mrs. Zhao. Later, Little Red Riding Hood appeared, and the younger brother became the team leader with the help of his own money.
In her heart, her younger brother and youngest son are both her dearest ones, and nothing must happen to them. But now her younger brother is absconding from the crime, and her youngest son is in a coma. She is extremely sad and crying like rain.
Lan Caixin quickly pulled her brother into the house. Looking at her brother's anxious look, she showed a hint of embarrassment on her face, because she had made a big mistake. Her husband took away all her money, and now she had nothing.
Captain Lan saw his sister's worried look and knew that her life was not easy. He stood up and said helplessly, "Sister, I know it's difficult for you too. I'll find a way to deal with the money. You and Xiaojian, take care of yourselves. I'm leaving now."
Seeing her brother about to leave, Lan Caixin sighed. She held her brother and asked him to wait for a moment. Lan Caixin came to her son's room and took out a package from a very secret place.
"Brother, this is my last bit of belongings. I'm giving it all to you now. You must live well, otherwise I will let my parents down."
Captain Lan opened the package, which contained dozens of small yellow croakers. He knew how difficult it was for his sister, so he took 20 and returned the rest to her. Lan Caixin looked at her brother in surprise and asked, "Little brother, why didn't you take all of them?"
Captain Lan shook his head and gritted his teeth, "Thank you, sister. These 20 are enough. I'll leave right away. Don't worry, sister. If I turn over, I will definitely come back to help you find that Boss Huo and avenge Xiao Jian."
Lan Caixin nodded silently. In fact, she didn't want to take revenge anymore. Captain Lan waved to his sister, turned and left the Lan family, and fled into the distance. Looking at her brother's figure going away, Lan Caixin closed her eyes, feeling so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe.
Lan Caixin thought to herself, "Brother, you must escape. You must not get caught." If her brother was caught, the fact that she was released from prison with his connections would also be investigated. She didn't want to go back to prison. She wanted to stay with her youngest son and take care of him.
Just as Captain Lan left, a group of Little Red Riding Hoods rushed in. The leader shouted at Lan Caixin, "Hurry up and hand over that kid named Lan. We'll be responsible for catching him and have him go back to cooperate with the investigation. Don't be foolish and harbor him."
Lan Caixin looked at these little red hats and her face turned pale with fear. She said in a trembling voice, "Captain, my brother has never been to my place. I don't know what happened to him, nor do I know where he went. If you don't believe me, you can come in and search."
The team leader snorted coldly and said to Little Red Riding Hood behind him, "Search, search carefully, search thoroughly, and you must find the boy named Lan. I've known for a long time that he is not a good person." This team leader had a great grudge against Captain Lan.
Ten minutes later, the Little Red Riding Hoods came out dejectedly. Seeing them like this, Captain Wang, the leader of the team, was confused. He glared at Lan Caixin fiercely and said to the Little Red Riding Hoods, "
That kid named Lan has committed so many crimes and arrested so many people. He wants to get away with it. I am so happy about him. No matter where he escapes to, we must catch him back and make him face punishment. "Let's go. Little Red Riding Hood left as quickly as she came."
Lan Caixin didn't know how she got back to the room. Seeing that her things were in a mess, she guessed something. She went to the place where she hid the money and found that the remaining 20 or so gold bars were gone. She felt like the sky had fallen and all her private money was gone.
Lan Caixin could no longer remain calm. She sat down on the ground. Her brother was definitely finished this time. She just hoped that she would not be implicated. If she went in again, what would happen to her youngest son Zhao Jian? Her brother was now on the run, and her son was in this state. She felt so tired.
Who should he blame for all this? Should he blame himself or his son? Thinking of his eldest son, whom he had always disliked, the pain in his heart became more intense. He wondered if Zhao Kang would take care of his younger brother if something happened to him.
After leaving the Lan family, Little Red Riding Hood came to a secluded place. Captain Wang said to one of the young men, "Monkey, if you don't want to get beaten, take out the things you found. Otherwise, we will start fighting."
Hearing the captain's words, Monkey felt a chill on his back and smiled awkwardly, "Captain, brothers, I saw that it was inconvenient just now, so I kept it for a while. Now I'll take it out."
Everyone was stunned when they saw the 20-odd gold bars in front of them. Seeing everyone swallowing their saliva, Captain Wang said sternly, "Do you also want to be implicated in the case of that kid named Lan? All this money must be handed over to the squadron leader. I'll treat everyone to dinner today."
Everyone was still very convinced of Captain Wang's words. After all, he was the person the squadron leader trusted the most, and they also knew that the higher-ups would definitely reward them well. Besides, being able to have a big meal was also a nice thing.
At this time, Captain Lan was like a headless fly, not knowing where to find safety. He had offended too many people when he was a captain. This time, he arrested people indiscriminately, which made many people dissatisfied with him. He found that some of the victims' families had joined the team to arrest him.
He grabbed a handful of dirt from the ground and patted it on his face. He touched the small yellow croakers on his body. These were his livelihood. With these things, he felt much more at ease.
Just as he was walking with his head down, he suddenly came into a dead end. He cursed, "What bad luck! How did I end up in a dead end? I need to cheer up." Just as he was about to change direction and continue running away, his eyes went dark and he fainted.
"Lan Caixin, can you come with us?"
