I looked at Lao Du and said, "Don't you think that before I knocked you out, the two ghosts hiding under the cabinet were no longer so urgent?"
Lao Du thought about it for a while before whispering, "It seems so."
Lao Du himself did not understand why the ghost was sure that he wanted to catch me. In fact, the reason is very simple. People with integrity always put public interests first and private interests second when dealing with right and wrong. It can even be said that they are somewhat inhumane or even heartless.
I killed someone in front of Lao Du, so even if we were working together, he would still arrest me first. As long as Lao Du delayed me for a day or two, the ghost would have a chance to take advantage of me.
Lao Du said in a deep voice: "What are you going to do now? Do you still want to protect those two girls?"
"Just leave those two girls in your bureau. If it were in ancient times, this would also be a government office, and ghosts and gods wouldn't dare to come in easily. Plus the ghosts and gods will go back to cause trouble for Wen Xin, so the two of them are safe for the time being."
I turned around and said, "Our first step of the plan has been successful, and now we have the second step. However, that depends on whether you dare to do it!"
Lao Du asked doubtfully, "What am I afraid of doing?"
I looked at Lao Du and said, "Do you dare to announce publicly that someone has reported Wen Xin for murder and to investigate him?"
"This..." Lao Du hesitated. After all, the process of investigating a suspect is a personal privacy and cannot be made public before the case is closed. "Is there any other way?"
I didn't want to embarrass Lao Du: "If we can't create momentum, then it's best to bring Wen Xin back for questioning, but we must make a big fanfare. Now, I don't want Wen Xin to know that the two girls are fine, but I want to let the ghost behind Wen Xin know that the two girls are still under our protection."
Lao Du hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "I'll take care of it."
Before Lao Du stood up, Xiao Li rushed in: "Captain Du, this is bad. Someone has reported you to the Supervision Department under their real name, saying that you abused your power and caused the suspect's death. Someone from the Supervision Department will be here soon."
When Lao Du and I looked at each other, we couldn't help but say two words at the same time: "Wenxin?"
The biggest difference between the underworld and the public sector is that the former only has rules, while the latter must abide by the rules.
No one cares whether the rules of the underworld are followed or not. As long as the means are clever, the so-called underworld rules are empty words. However, the rules are different. When you are in the public sector, you live under the rules. Once you cross the line, you must bear the corresponding consequences.
Although Wen Xin is not in the government, he knows the truth. Last time, he almost used the rules to keep me in the police station. This time, he targeted Lao Du, which was still a trick. If Lao Du fails, I will also be kept to cooperate with the investigation, and Wang Shiyu and the other two will still be treated as prey.
As Lao Du and I stared at each other, Director Lu and the people from the Supervision Department came in. Lao Du briefly said a few words to them, then took out a recorder and said, "Everyone, listen to last night's recording first."
Lao Du didn't bring any video equipment, but out of professional habit, he brought a recorder, which recorded most of our conversation. After listening to it, Director Lu was silent for a long time before speaking: "The Supervision Department should suppress this matter for me first. If there is any problem, I will be responsible."
The two inspectors who followed looked at each other and said, "This..."
Director Lu said in a deep voice: "I also know that this recording is hard to convince people, but I believe in my comrades. Let's do this for now."
"Well then!" The two inspectors put away their notebooks and turned to leave the room. Director Lu then spoke up, "Old Du, I don't have much time left for you. Do whatever you want as soon as possible. Director Wang will be back in two days. As your direct supervisor, he won't let you do whatever you want. Go now!"
"Thank you!" Lao Du quickly got approval and took Wen Xin, who was in a meeting, directly from the company to the police station.
Wen Xin entered the criminal police team and immediately slammed the table: "You are abusing your power! I will sue you!"
Lao Du smiled faintly: "Mr. Wen, please be patient, someone will come to take your statement soon. I'll take my leave now."
After saying that, Lao Du left the interrogation room and sat with me in the corridor to smoke and chat, while looking at the door of the interrogation room. No matter whether Wen Xin was shouting or kicking and throwing things in there, we just pretended not to hear anything. It was not until more than three hours later that I let Lao Du release him. The first thing Lao Du said when he saw Wen Xin was: "Sorry, Mr. Wen, we made a mistake. You can leave now."
Wen Xin was immediately furious: "What is this? You want to shirk responsibility by saying 'I made a mistake'? I'm going to sue you!"
I walked over with my hands behind my back: "It's okay, just sue me. As long as you can survive three days, you can sue me in the Supreme Court. If something goes wrong, hehe... I'm afraid you can only go to the Hall of Hell to file a complaint."
Wen Xin's face turned pale: "Are you threatening me?"
"That's not a threat." I shook a finger and said, "My purpose in bringing you here is simple, just to put pressure on your luck. I want to see if you have the ability to turn the tables after putting your luck to the lowest point."
"You..." Wen Xin was so angry that his lips trembled, but he couldn't say a word.
The policemen's fortunes will not be affected when they come in and out of the police station. That's because they are part of the public sector. Not only will they not be affected, they will even be protected by the righteousness of the public sector.
However, it is a different story for those who are arrested. The government office is the place that can most change a person's fate, otherwise, there would not be the term "prison disaster".
There is a saying in the art of martial arts that "once you enter the government office, your luck will drop three feet." This means that the righteousness of the government office can directly suppress the luck of criminals, or even shatter them. Unless they have a greater luck to protect them, otherwise under the suppression of the righteousness of the government office, their own luck will definitely weaken again and again, and even directly change their fate and lead to disasters.
Wen Xin knew this, so he was at a loss. I smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Wen, why don't you go back and change your luck now?"
Wen Xin's face turned pale instantly. He didn't bother to argue with us anymore. He pretended to be calm, snorted coldly and left the criminal police team.
Not long after Wen Xin left, Lao Du took me to the surveillance point opposite Wen Xin's home. After handing me a pair of binoculars, he asked, "Xiao Wu, did you see anything?"
I pointed to Wenxin's villa: "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a hidden Feng Shui layout in Wenxin's house."
There are both obvious and hidden Feng Shui situations.
A clear Feng Shui layout means that even people who are not well versed in Feng Shui can tell at a glance that it is a Feng Shui layout specially arranged by someone. For example, many restaurants have rockery, fish ponds and other things after the entrance.
A dark layout is also called a hidden Feng Shui layout. As the name suggests, it is a Feng Shui layout that is difficult to see at a glance. The Feng Shui decoration is not on the surface, but in the dark. Those who can arrange a dark layout are all top masters in Feng Shui.
Because the secret Feng Shui bureau not only requires geography, but also requires calculation of the impact of nearby buildings or objects on the Feng Shui bureau. Sometimes, even the people who are active in the Feng Shui bureau can be counted as part of the Feng Shui bureau.
Of course, the secret layout is also because of the needs of the owner. Some people don't want others to know that they believe in Feng Shui, and some people are afraid of being secretly sabotaged. You know, it is very complicated to arrange a Feng Shui layout, but it is easy to destroy it. So some owners simply choose a secret layout.
Lao Du didn't understand what I meant: "I don't understand what you said. Why don't you just tell me directly, what's going on?"
I said, "According to the secret situation in Wenxin's family, Wenxin should have a lot of money and good fortune for the next twenty years. But, do you think Wenxin's fortune will continue to grow now?"
Lao Du frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
I continued, "To put it simply, someone tampered with Wen Xin's Feng Shui. Not only did it fail to preserve his luck, but it also caused him to lose his fortune."
Lao Du's eyes lit up: "You mean the ghost behind Wen Xin?"
"We can't be sure yet. We have to try." I squinted my eyes and answered, "You don't have to deny my words yet. Since our plan is for Wen Xin to clash with that ghost, we have to find a way to force him to death first."
I pointed at Wenxin's villa and said, "If you were also a sorcerer, you should be able to see that there is a very strong aura of treasure in Wenxin's villa, which means that there is a treasure in his room that can fight against ghosts and gods. I guess this is why Wenxin is so fearless."
Lao Du said in a deep voice: "You want to steal the treasure?"
"It's unlikely that he stole the treasure. Who among us has the skills to steal the treasure without making any noise?" I saw Lao Du shaking his head, and then I continued, "Let's find out Wen Xin's cards first. Do you know this unfamiliar liar?"
Lao Du thought for a moment and said, "There is one person I can try. You watch over Wen Xin first and wait for my news."
Lao Du left Xiao Li and I at the surveillance point and left in a hurry.
From my position, I could roughly see Wenxin's actions in the study. After Lao Du left, he had been sitting in the study smoking. From his actions, it seemed that Wenxin was very anxious, at least he no longer had the calmness and composure he had when Lao Du was there.
Wen Xin didn't close the curtains of the study until he finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, and I could faintly see a trace of preciousness coming out from behind the curtains.
Not long after, Wen Xin returned to his bedroom, and his expression was obviously much calmer. It seems that my guess was right, that treasure was his greatest reliance.
I was just about to take a closer look at what was hidden on Wenxin's body when he pulled the curtains.
It was not until dawn that Lao Du came back with a man in his sixties. He pointed at the old man who had been shaved bald and said, "Xiao Wu, what do you think of this man?" (To be continued)
