Chapter 999 No Peace
This night, some people are destined to have no peace. Tang Jingwei limped onto the river beach. Since escaping to this place, he has been trying to sort out everything that happened, but he still has no clue.
The wind was very strong by the riverside. Not far away, a bald man lit a fire. He sat cross-legged beside the fire and smoked a somewhat exaggerated dry pipe.
Tang Jingwei still has several poor relatives. He is nostalgic and treats these poor relatives well. He has been supporting them for a long time. When he encounters a crisis, he thinks of these people instead of the powerful.
Some people can share wealth and honor, but they can never share adversity. Those worthy of entrustment and trust are often old acquaintances in times of adversity.
The bald man's name is Tang Jingshui, and he is Tang Jingwei's cousin. Tang Jingshui is an old bachelor with no ability. He has been living in confusion for most of his life. He has no sense of existence in the Tang family clan. Even his parents' funerals were funded by Tang Jingwei. .
Tang Jingshui also worked in Hua Nian in the past, but he was really of no use, so he chose to leave on his own initiative. When he left, Tang Jingwei gave him a sum of money and asked him to find another way to make a living.
Tang Jingshui contracted a fish pond to raise fish nearby and lived happily. Until he was diagnosed with lung cancer the year before last, Tang Jingshui refused to have surgery. He believed that everything was destined. He had enjoyed everything in his life, even if he died. No regrets either.
Tang Jingwei rarely contacted him on weekdays, but he would send money in person during holidays.
After Tang Jingwei came over tonight, Tang Jingshui realized that something big must have happened. Tang Jingwei didn't say anything, and Tang Jingshui didn't ask.
Tang Jingshui's violent cough interrupted Tang Jingwei's thoughts. Tang Jingwei came to sit next to Tang Jingshui and took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket: "Brother Jingshui, smoke this."
Tang Jingshui shook his head: "It's boring." He took a sip of dry tobacco and coughed again.
Tang Jingwei said: "Now I realize that a person like you is not bad, free from worries."
Tang Jingshui said: "I don't have much ability, unlike you, who is very capable."
Tang Jingwei sighed and said: "What a great talent. In the end, you can't even save your family."
Tang Jingshui said: "You can tell me if you have something to say."
Tang Jingwei said: "There's nothing to say, Brother Jingshui, I'm leaving tonight. If you have time, help me check out Jinglun."
Tang Jingshui said: "Why do you want to leave?"
“If I don’t leave, I might go to jail.”
“No matter how big the problem is, I’ll do it for you.”
Tang Jingwei looked at Tang Jingshui.
Tang Jingshui said: "I can only live for a year at most. I have never been in jail in my life. I want to go inside."
Tang Jingwei said: "I still have to leave."
Tang Jingshui said: "You go, the farther you go, the better. I will take care of the things here."
For Liu Qingshan, what happened tonight was really full of twists and turns. Everything originally went smoothly. He successfully rescued Qi Shuang and his son, and captured one of the kidnappers. However, he did not expect that the kidnapper would commit suicide by taking poison. The clue was interrupted. The kidnapper Lao Geng had a phone on his body. , search his call records, it is not difficult to find another number.
To the surprise of the police, the other party did not turn off the phone and used positioning to find the owner of the phone that night.
When the police surrounded the suspect like magic soldiers, Tang Jingshui said calmly: "My name is Tang Jingshui, Lao Geng is my friend, Tang Tianyi is my nephew, and the wife and children who kidnapped Qiao Rulong are all mine." Idea, I will surrender on my own initiative..."
Qiao Rulong was also called for questioning by the police. Hearing that the man named Tang Jingshui had admitted everything, Qiao Rulong said angrily: "It's impossible, Tang Jingwei did this. Tang Jingshui was just a backer. This is not obvious. ?”
Liu Qingshan said calmly: "Tang Jingwei is missing and we are searching for him with all our strength. However, based on the evidence we currently have, we cannot prove that he is directly related to this kidnapping case."
Qiao Rulong said: "Then go and investigate. Such a person must have thought of an escape route in advance. Why would he escape if he has never done it?"
Liu Qingshan said: "We have just contacted the Dongzhou police and plan to jointly investigate the assassination of Pan Weidong and this kidnapping case. According to our analysis, there is likely to be a close correlation between the two cases."
Qiao Rulong fell silent. He had long believed that Tang Jingwei was behind the two cases. The police's investigation direction was undoubtedly correct. However, Qiao Rulong also had some worries. As the investigation deepened, he and Qi Shuang The relationship between Qi Shuang and the Pan family is bound to be revealed to the world.
If these secrets are exposed, what impact will it have on him and what impact will it have on the Qiao family?
Liu Qingshan said: "Mr. Qiao, what is your relationship with Qi Shuang?"
Qiao Rulong looked at Liu Qingshan: "I refuse to answer any questions that are not related to this case." Liu Qingshan sighed and said, "Mr. Qiao, did you sneak into the Tang family for the second time tonight?"
Qiao Rulong said: "I don't. My driver can vouch for me."
Liu Qingshan said: "Mr. Qiao, let me remind you that if you don't cooperate, it will be difficult to find out the truth in this case, and we will not be able to convict the real culprit, unless... you don't want to find out the truth."
Qiao Rulong raised his wrist and looked at the time: "It's too late. Let's talk about it later. Too many things happened today. I'm very tired and need to rest."
When Qiao Rulong went out, he met Pan Tianhua who had just completed the investigation.
Pan Tianhua is in bigger trouble than him. Recently, Pan Tianhua has to stay in Nanjiang, and he has to take the initiative to report to the police station every day. Every death and injury at the scene is related to Pan Tianhua. Although it is self-defense, after all, something happened Human life, whether the defense was excessive requires further investigation. In fact, the police are mainly suspicious of Pan Tianhua single-handedly killing two well-trained kidnappers.
Through investigation, it was found that when he was young, Lao Geng was the runner-up in martial arts in Guangdong and Guangxi, and later followed Li Kuohai, the Smiling King, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Qianmen. He was a famous tiger general in Qianmen. He was beheaded by a casino tycoon because he was addicted to gambling and owed usury. Two fingers.
Qianmen didn’t stand up for him for some unknown reason. Later, Tang Jingwei helped him pay off his gambling debt. After that, Lao Geng quit Qianmen and started driving and working part-time as a bodyguard with Tang Jingwei.
As for the dead Adong, he was the godson of Lao Geng, and his strength was by no means ordinary. Pan Tianhua defeated two armed kidnappers with his bare hands, causing one death and one injury. He rescued two hostages and escaped unharmed. Such a story is really too fantasy. Some.
According to the on-site investigation, a fierce fight took place at the scene, and the blood stain of another person was found. This blood stain did not belong to the five people at the scene. According to the results of the genetic comparison, it can basically be determined that Tang Jingwei was at the scene at that time.
But Pan Tianhua insisted that he rescued the hostages alone and that he did everything alone. He had never seen Tang Jingwei at the scene.
Pan Tianhua glanced at Qiao Rulong and wanted to say hello to him, but Qiao Rulong walked towards the parking lot as if he hadn't seen him.
Pan Tianhua frowned, feeling a little unhappy.
Two men came over to put clothes on him. Pan Tianhua stretched out his hand, one handed him a cigar, and the other helped him light it.
Pan Tianhua took two strong puffs of cigarette, recalling the thrilling scene on the water tower before, that Qiao Rulong who was not afraid of danger and had extraordinary skills.
Pan Tianhua can conclude that that is not Qiao Rulong. Could it be that Qiao Rulong has a twin brother in this world?
Pan Tianhua immediately denied this possibility. There was a vague shadow in his heart. A person's appearance can be changed, but his actions and temperament cannot be changed in a short period of time. Especially when he rescued his grandson George, Qiao Rulong didn't understand at all. Medical skills.
No matter who rescued the people, the result is quite satisfactory. At least the daughter and grandson escaped.
Although Pan Tianhua could understand Qiao Rulong turning a blind eye to him, he was still very uncomfortable deep down. Due to his own background, the Qiao family did not want to have anything to do with him, but his daughter's file was innocent, and his grandson They are pure and flawless babies, why can't they see the light of day?
You, Qiao Rulong, have to pretend to be strangers to me in front of others. Don't you even have the friendship to nod and smile?
Pan Tianhua got into the car, took two puffs of smoke and said, "Send me to Qinghuai River."
Hua Zhuyue arrived at the agreed place earlier than Pan Tianhua. The elders of the Orchid Sect, Uncle Jiu and He Jingliang, had already arrived.
It was approaching midnight, and several important figures from the Orchid Sect gathered in the painting boat to drink tea.
This situation was organized by Pan Tianhua, but he was the last to arrive. The main reason was that the interrogation by the police delayed the time.
Pan Tianhua boarded the boat, clasped his fists to his fellow disciples and said, "Thank you for your hard work. I'm really embarrassed to invite you all here so late."
Uncle Jiu smiled and said, "Brother Pan, let me say hello and we will come despite all the dangers."
He Jingliang said: "Between the same sect, we share the same spirit, life and death. If Brother Pan has anything to do, just give him instructions."
Hua Zhuyue had known for a long time that these two people were Pan Tianhua's best friends. In the past, she had also supported Pan Tianhua behind the scenes to ascend to the position of sect leader, but in the end, she shattered the conspiracy. Neither of these two people were loyal people. They are the first, otherwise I would not have induced them to switch sides and supported Ji Jiajia at the last moment.
Uncle Jiu and He Jingliang both stood up to greet her, but Hua Zhuyue sat firmly on the Diaoyutai. This was not because she was arrogant, but because she was now in charge of Ji Jiajia, the sect leader, and was the de facto head of the Orchid Sect.
In the past, Pan Tianhua would definitely have been dissatisfied, but today, instead of showing any displeasure, Pan Tianhua had a humble attitude and greeted with a smile: "Sister Hua is here."
Hua Zhuyue is much younger than Pan Tianhua, and it is not an exaggeration for her to call her uncle. Pan Tianhua has never called her this in the past, at most he is Mr. Hua.
Uncle Jiu and He Jingliang looked at each other, knowing in their hearts that the title meant reconciliation.
