Huang Wanshu murmured, "I don't know how."
"If you don't know, then learn! You lazy idiot, how many characters have you learned in all these years? Starting tomorrow, learn to read! Copy fifty large characters every day. If you don't finish, you're not allowed to sleep!"
Despite this, Huang Wanzhen changed her mind after one night. She took a stack of letters and went to Huang Wanshu, saying, "You have to go back to Xinjin Hutong and hide these letters in the room where Qiu Guangrong often stays. Then go to the police station and report Qiu Guangrong as a revolutionary."
"If the police ask how you know, just say you found some correspondence between him and the revolutionaries. Although you're not very literate, you still know a few words. After reading them, you guessed that Qiu Guangrong was a revolutionary. After some ideological struggle, you decided to put the interests of the country above your own and expose Qiu Guangrong. You don't seek credit, but you do seek to avoid blame. You hope the government won't implicate you."
"If I ask you about Qiu Guangrong, tell me what you know. Don't talk nonsense about things you don't know. Act like you're an ignorant woman. Don't be smart-assed and exaggerate. Do you understand?"
Huang Wanshu took the stack of letters and nodded heavily. "I am an ignorant woman to begin with. If you ask me to act like a learned person, I still don't know how to do it."
Huang Wanzhen rolled her eyes and said, "Be careful, hide in a secret place and don't let anyone find you easily."
"If you run into Qiu Guangrong and the servants when you get back, and they ask you what you've been doing these past few days, do you know what to tell them?"
Huang Wanshu's nose felt sore, and she almost burst into tears again. "I know. Don't worry about it. I'm going to throw a tantrum now. That bastard Qiu Guangrong hasn't been to my hospital for a long time."
After Huang Wanshu left, there was no news from her. At first, Huang Wanzhen went to school and managed the shop as usual. As the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, there was still no news. Huang Wanzhen could no longer remain calm. After hesitating for a long time between calling the police and looking for someone, she chose to look for someone directly.
"Hello? Doctor Chu, I'm Huang Wanzhen, I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Chu Yanzhi just resigned and was at home. If Huang Wanzhen called a few days later, she wouldn't be able to find him. "Is this true? Are they teaming up with Jun Yan to frame me?"
Huang Wanzhen's voice was filled with anxiety. "No, no, I really have something to worry about. My sister is missing. It's almost the holidays, and we wanted to have a reunion dinner together, but she's nowhere to be found. She's said before that her brother-in-law always beats her. My brother-in-law is Qiu Guangrong, the chief constable of the Beijing Police Department. I suspect he's holding my sister captive."
Huang Wanzhen started to cry as she spoke. "I wanted to make the decision for her before, but Qiu Guangrong didn't take our family seriously at all. He even beat my sister in front of us and threatened to kill my whole family if I didn't hand over all our property. Woohoo... Maybe my sister has already been killed by him."
Chu Yanzhi felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't expect that Huang Wanzhen, who was always strong, would cry like this. How painful it must be.
Chu Yanzhi's tone subconsciously slowed down, "Don't cry first, it's hard to explain over the phone. Where are you? I'll go find you."
"I'm in Jixiang Hall."
"Okay, wait for me."
Chu Yanzhi hung up the phone, picked up his coat, and walked out. The housekeeper saw him and hurriedly stopped him, "Master, the master invited people back for dinner tonight. He told us in advance that he wants you to accompany him. It's already this late, why don't you stay home."
Chu Yanzhi stretched out his long arm and pushed away the butler who was faking a smile. "If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh. It's so ugly."
When Chu Yanzhi arrived at Jixiangtang, Huang Wanzhen had already prepared the materials. After showing Chu Yanzhi Huang Wanshu's household registration and portrait, she said, "I also want to go directly to the police station to find Qiu Guangrong, but I'm afraid he will do something bad to me."
Chu Yanzhi gently patted Huang Wanzhen's arm twice and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'll take you to the police station and ask Qiu Guangrong to hand over your sister today."
Immediately afterwards, Chu Yanzhi and Huang Wanzhen got into the car and headed straight for the Beijing Police Department.
Li Shunshui was incredibly busy, having already been working overtime for several months straight. Unexpectedly, Mr. Chu would find him another job. "Follow the procedures! Do you understand? Follow the formal procedures, and a senior police officer will be in charge of this case!"
Chu Yanzhi frowned. "Qiu Guangrong is a police captain. How can a small police captain control him? What kind of morals are the people under you? Don't you have any idea in your mind?!"
Li Shunshui was furious. "Chu Yanzhi! Don't forget, the most important leader here is your father. Can you please be more careful when you speak?"
"Bang!" Chu Yanzhi slammed his hand heavily on Li Shunshui's desk. "Do you think I'm afraid of you just because you mentioned my father? In a word, will you do it or not? If not, I'll go find my father and ask him if all his subordinates are just sitting there doing nothing but eating and drinking!"
Huang Wanzhen quickly stepped forward and said, "Calm down, calm down, Captain Li. You say you're busy, but how could I not see it? During the time you were fighting with Doctor Chu, you should have called Qiu Guangrong over and asked him about it."
"Don't think I'm just an ordinary citizen, someone you can bully. Qiu Guangrong is from your police department. If he really killed my sister, I will definitely hire a lawyer to sue you. You have to know whose influence Qiu Guangrong is relying on! Huang is not talented, but I have a few friends in the media. I want to resolve this issue properly, but if you don't give the Huang family a chance to survive, then we'll have to fight to the death."
Li Shunshui knew that Huang Wanzhen knew people from the Hua Ming Daily and the Xinmin Daily. It turned out that Jixiangtang was holding an event and invited him. He went for Chu Yanzhi's sake. Unexpectedly, not only did many young ladies and wives from the political and business circles attend, but also people from the media. Huang Wanzhen really has a wide range of social connections.
"Go! Call Qiu Guangrong to me!" Li Shunshui shouted outside the door.
After a while, a senior police officer came running in, "Captain Li! Officer Qiu is not here."
Li Shunshui spread his hands towards Chu Yanzhi, "Yanzhi, it's not that I don't want to help, but don't you see what time it is? We policemen are also human beings and need to eat."
Chu Yanzhi sneered, "Haha! Okay, then bring him back. We'll officially report Qiu Guangrong to the police. He's suspected of killing Huang Wanzhen's sister. You'll file a case for me immediately!"
Li Shunshui hesitated and said, "This... doesn't conform to the procedures..."
Huang Wanzhen stepped forward and said, "Captain Li, you once arrested my second uncle without authorization and falsely accused me of killing Huang Zhengxiang. The witness is right in front of us. Do you want to go to court with me?!"
Li Shunshui's expression suddenly changed, his eyes wandering, as if he had something difficult to decide.
After a long silence, Li Shunshui gritted his teeth, walked to the door and closed it.
"Qiu Guangrong was taken away by the Inspection Office a long time ago." Although Li Shunshui's voice was low, Chu Yanzhi and Huang Wanzhen still heard it.
