It is said that the traitor Li Youcai rescued the beautiful Lin Xiu from the sea of suffering. For the first time in his life, he decided to be a brave and enterprising young man, without asking for anything in return or caring about gains or losses. He vowed to be a troublemaker in order to uphold justice!

Perhaps the heavens were blind, and they actually let this lackey succeed. Military police captain Maeda formed a temporary investigation team to conduct a thorough investigation of the detective team and police force personnel. Considering the language problem and the understanding of the temperament of the same ethnic group, Li Youcai became the person in charge of this investigation.

Wow, he actually temporarily led a team of imperial army military police! How awesome is this? Even Li Youcai himself didn't expect it. He was thought to be just running errands for the imperial army, but now he is awesome!

A dozen military policemen wearing eye-catching armbands and holding sharp bayonets stood in a row with frowns and arrogant expressions. A military police sergeant said to Li Youcai in stiff Chinese: "Mr. Li, you have been standing here for a long time. When are we leaving?"

Oh my god, the Imperial Army actually calls me Li Sang! Li Youcai sighed inwardly, is this the highest realm of being a "dog"? Is this the difference between a good dog and a scabby dog

"Uh... ah, yes, let's go now, let's go now!" He was so narcissistic that he lost his mind and made the imperial soldiers' legs sore from standing in front of him. This was because of him.

When I led the team out of the gendarmerie gate, I felt like I couldn't even walk anymore and was walking in the wrong direction. I didn't know if it was because of my nervousness and excitement, or because of the sound of the uniform military boots clicking onto the ground behind me.

The moment I walked into the gate of the police station, I tried my best to suppress my emotions, and forced myself to tell myself again and again in my heart: Pay attention to your image, don't forget your own weight, and don't forget that after this incident, you are still a scabby boy, not a god!

The back that he had straightened with great difficulty finally became slightly hunched again, and the cool expression he had put on with great difficulty was finally replaced by his usual sunny smile. He nodded slightly towards the two stunned policemen standing guard at the gate of the police station.

I saw the gendarmes entering the police station from the window. The captain hurried out of the office and was so flustered that he even forgot to put on his hat. What happened

Li Youcai did not take advantage of the military police behind him to act arrogantly. He put himself in his usual level and attitude, even more humble, and bowed to the captain of the police force: "Captain Wang, it's not a big deal. I'm just running errands for Captain Maeda. This is what happened... Please don't misunderstand."

After stating his purpose, he moved closer to the other party and whispered, "Captain Maeda has been furious because he couldn't catch the man. He even overturned the table. Please don't make things difficult for me. We just need to go through the formalities once. I can talk to you when we get back."

Normally, when working for the military police, no matter where you go, you can just act in a dignified manner, and the captain of the police force will never dare to say a word. But Li Youcai still treated himself as the little man he used to be, and gave him all the favors, which made the captain of the police force, who was originally panicked, sigh with emotion. This kid Li Youcai is too good. In the past, I only knew that he was a gambler and a plainclothes team that was not presentable. The level was far inferior and I didn't even look at him. Now I find that this kid is really good and worth making friends with!

"Li Youcai, just follow the rules. Ah, this, just investigate, I will back you up in everything!" Originally it was something that no one dared to disobey, and now even the captain of the police force showed off his shamelessness.

Li Youcai clasped his fists and bowed: "Everyone, I'm sorry. Um... All personnel, gather together and check the injuries. Who is the brother in charge of personnel? Tell him to come over to me. Also, this place needs to be searched."

Some gendarmes began to search the police force, while others stood guard to monitor the assembled policemen. For a while, the police compound was filled with smoke.

In the police interrogation room, an officer was roaring.

"How is this possible! This police uniform is not mine at all, how do I know it is in my office? Am I, a deputy captain, so stupid?..."

Li Youcai stood up from behind the desk and waved his hand at the deputy captain: "Calm down, calm down, Deputy Captain Liu, I believe you are innocent, I believe it!" Then he took the cup and poured water into it, walked around the desk, handed the water to the deputy captain, and said: "I also want to finish the work quickly and report back to Captain Maeda. I don't want to go through all this trouble with you, but now that this has been found, we have to investigate. It's so annoying, so annoying!"

The deputy captain put the cup on the table and said anxiously, "It's impossible for me to do that! Am I stupid enough to hide this? I am..."

Seeing that the other party was so excited that he was about to stand up again, Li Youcai quickly pressed down his shoulders and said, "Don't be so angry, Deputy Captain Liu, calm down and think about it. Did I tie you up? I never thought of using any means on you, right? To be honest, a small character like me, Li Youcai, may have to ask you, a great god, for help one day, right? You don't even need to tell me the reason. You don't have any gunshot wounds on your body, so how could there be a police uniform with gunshot wounds? If it's really yours, why don't you just burn it? Why do you keep it in the office? It's totally illogical!"

These words calmed down Deputy Captain Liu a lot, so Li Youcai went back to sit behind his desk, sighed, and said to himself, "The more I want to end this offensive job, the more trouble I get into!" Then he continued to say to the other party, "But you don't have to worry. Although I am embarrassed to talk to you on weekdays, I always feel that you, Deputy Captain Liu, have no airs and are much better than other superiors! Just for this reason, I can't be so stupid as to wrongly accuse a good person!

You don't have to be impatient about this matter. Although the police uniform was found in your office, you are definitely not the murderer. I won't believe it even if I kill you. At most, I will suspend you from work and put you in solitary confinement for a few days to wait for the results. No matter what the results of the investigation are, I dare to guarantee that you will be reinstated, so don't act rashly. But then again, who wants to put the blame on you? Have you offended anyone?"

Deputy Captain Liu thought about it calmly and said, "Fuck him, it must be him!"

Soon after, a team of military police rushed into the pseudo-government office building. The military police sergeant leading the team asked coldly, "Secretary Zhao, where is he?"

A clerk pointed tremblingly to an office upstairs.

The sergeant waved his hand, and there was a rumbling sound of military boots stomping on the stairs. In a blink of an eye, a middle-aged scholar was pulled out by the military police and carried down the stairs. His legs were shaking and he asked, "Madam, why is this happening? What happened to me?"

No one in the audience dared to speak. They panicked and made way for the passage, watching the military police drag Secretary Zhao out of the government gate like a chicken.

Li Youcai walked into the police dungeon and couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his nose. He didn't like this place.

After walking a dozen steps along the corridor separated by iron bars, he stopped, not because he found the person he was looking for, but because he really didn't want to go any further inside. So he resolutely turned around, left the dungeon, asked a police officer to bring out the person he wanted, and he sat in the cell waiting.

An elderly prisoner was brought into the cell, and the police officer prudently closed the door and left.

"Are you Shopkeeper Lin?"

"I am."

"You have a daughter named Lin Xiu?"

Shopkeeper Lin raised his head when he heard this.

"On one side is Deputy Captain Liu, and on the other side is Secretary Zhao. You only have one daughter, so this is a dead end!"

"Who are you?"

"Don't worry about who I am. I just want to ask you, if I can get you out of prison in exchange for those two shops, will you do it?"

"I… "

"Don't discuss it with me. I'm not a businessman. This is the only chance. Do you want to do it?"

"OK."

After getting the answer, Li Youcai stood up and walked towards the door. When passing by Manager Lin, he whispered something in his ear. After getting another affirmative nod from Manager Lin, he pushed open the door of the classroom, asked the police officer to take Manager Lin back, and walked away.

Jin Chunxiu grabbed the ear of the person who came in and said, "Hey, you're here again?"

Li Youcai covered his ears with one hand and blocked his face with the other: "Don't scratch it! I'm helping Taijun right now. I'm telling you to be careful not to drag you into this if you scratch me."

In Jin Chunxiu's eyes, Li Youcai was a man who dared to admit his weakness, so he would not easily use this kind of thing as an excuse, so he let go, but still pinched Li Youcai's arm hard, causing him to grimace in pain and rub his arm desperately.

"Shameless, why are you here?"

"It's not convenient to talk about this. Let's talk about it in your room."

After closing the door, Jin Chunxiu began to pull Li Youcai's clothes impatiently.

"Stop, stop, stop immediately! Oh my God, can you please do something serious?" Li Youcai pushed Jin Chunxiu away and dodged around the eight-immortals table in the room in panic.

"I run Chunxiulou, isn't this my business? You little thief, I'll see where you can hide!"

"Sister, aunt, grandma! Calm down! Calm down! Forgive me, I really have something to talk to you about, I am doing business for you. I have to hurry back, please listen to me..."

There was a knock on the police captain's office door.

When the captain saw that the person who came in was Li Youcai, he immediately put on a smile and said, "Youcai, come over and sit down. How's the matter going?"

Li Youcai smiled, sat down on a chair opposite the desk, put his hands on his knees and hunched his chest: "It's annoying, there's no way to investigate this matter."

"What if we don't investigate? How can we report to the Madam? Oh, really..." The captain sighed, looked at the closed door, and asked in a low voice: "How about finding someone from the prison to take the blame? Can it be resolved?"

Li Youcai said with a bitter face: "Forget it, Captain Maeda is not someone who can be fooled easily, don't get angry, it doesn't matter even if there is no result, it's impossible to shut down the police force! Besides, I am the one who bears the greatest responsibility for this matter, I am not capable, and I am not the material for investigating a case at all, in two days I will go directly to Captain Maeda to explain, and accept the punishment. I am a lowly official anyway, what difference does it make if I am demoted as a plainclothes captain, once Maeda calms down, this matter will be over. Don't worry, everyone will be fine."

"You are talented. Don't worry. If the plainclothes captain can't do the job, I will transfer you to the police team and definitely give you a better job!"

The two talked about the current situation for a while, and Li Youcai changed the subject: "By the way, at lunch today, a friend asked me to pass on a message that he wanted to buy two shops from you."

The captain was stunned: "Open a shop? How can I have a shop?"

Li Youcai smiled slyly and lowered his voice, "She heard that Shopkeeper Lin was arrested, so she thought that if she bought it from you, she might be able to get a 10% discount on the market price. You can see how daring these unscrupulous businessmen are now. I admire them."

The captain stared blankly for a while, then his eyes finally started to move.

He locked the gate carefully, then tiptoed across the yard to the front door of the house. He put his ears close to the door and listened carefully into the house. Then he gently opened the door a crack and peeked inside.

Round, metallic, black, right in front of him, it was the muzzle of a gun! Li Youcai was so frightened that the hairs on his back stood up.

He quickly pushed the door open and entered the room, whispering to the side of the door: "Captain Hu, don't let the fire start!"

"What is the purpose of doing this?" Hu Yi put down the gun.

"What do you think? I'm just worried that you two will do that again... and then I'll get hurt again, and I'll be scared every time I go home, ah!"

After turning on the lamp, Su Qing's cold face appeared beside the table: "Li Youcai, if you keep talking nonsense, I will throw this lamp to you too!"

"I just don't understand, what's going on between you two? You're standing far apart, talking coldly, but something just doesn't seem right. I can't even figure out the situation, what do you want me to do?"

"Publicly, he is a comrade; privately, we are just acquaintances, not even friends. Do you understand now?" Su Qing's expression was extremely serious. He spoke to Li Youcai, but a third person could understand who he was talking to.

I couldn't help but steal a glance at Hu Yi: "I understand, I really understand this time!" Then I sat down at the table and smiled shamelessly: "Sister Su, you don't have to be angry. You two don't have to go through hard times anymore. I, Li Youcai, am too soft-hearted. I didn't want to be a good person, but I became one for once. I might as well become Guanyin and save all living beings!"

“…” Hu Yi and Su Qing didn’t understand and couldn’t stand his mouth.

"Captain Hu, you will be waiting in front of the police station early tomorrow morning. You will only need to wear this outfit, and you can also hang your gun openly. If anyone asks you what you do, just say that you are a guard of the Lin family, waiting to take your boss home. As for who the boss is, you should be able to recognize him by then."

"Manager Lin can take him out of the city? How is that possible?" Su Qing was surprised. How could a businessman who was framed take a stranger with a gun through the city gate? He definitely couldn't have such a big face.

Li Youcai smiled and said, "What's impossible? If we can't get out by then, we can just shoot and rush out! I think with Chief Hu's ability... there is at least a 30% chance of getting out alive."

"… "

"Also, Sister Su, aren't you looking for a shop? I have some information for you. The madam of Chunxiu Building is called Jin Chunxiu. Tomorrow afternoon, she will have two shops, a silk shop and a ready-made clothing shop. They are both in good locations and are big brands. She will definitely be thinking about selling them or finding someone to run them. If you are interested, you can discuss it with her. But she is... not easy to bargain with, so you have to be aware of it."

After saying these words, Su Qing and Hu Yi were stunned. They both narrowed their eyes and stared at Li Youcai carefully. Was this kid drunk? Was he talking nonsense or human language? It was too outrageous!
