Chapter 26 Goodbye Xiao Gao
At Liu Xiaoshun's order, almost all the police officers in the bureau were mobilized, with the goal of finding the 17 criminal suspects on the list.
The criminals were unaware that Lin Pengfei had been arrested, and they were not prepared when the police raided the area. Except for two people who were not in the county, all the others were arrested.
"Captain Qi, Qin Gang and Qin Hu are not in Yuezhongzhuang in the south of the city. It is said that their father passed away five days ago, and they went back to their hometown on the island in the center of the lake in Huli Township to attend the funeral." Zhao Buyuan whispered.
When Qi Tongwei heard the words "Fisherman's Village on Lake Island", he was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses.
"Comrade Buyuan, you take the captured people back. I will take people to the fishing village on the lake island. Haoran, take your people and follow me."
Qi Tongwei knew that now was the time to race against time with the criminals and there was no time to waste.
In the car, Qi Tongwei showed a hint of longing between his brows, and said nothing.
When I think of the fishing village on the lake island, I think of Gao Xiaoqin.
In a sense, Gao Xiaoqin and myself are actually the same kind of people. We both came from poor backgrounds and have suffered a lot in life.
Because of this ordeal, the two of them developed several times more courage and tenacity than others, and they started from scratch and built up a large business.
I gave Gao Xiaoqin dignity, but Liang Lu was also trampling on my dignity.
Giving Gao Xiaoqin unlimited freedom and allowing her to fight for her own life is also the Liang family and the powerful families restricting her freedom.
He longed for success, so he indulged his lover in enjoying the taste of success.
For Qi Tongwei, Gao Xiaoqin is his confidante, or even family member. Only when facing Gao Xiaoqin can he put down his mask and not live such a tiring life.
In his previous life, he was standing at the highway intersection waiting for information from Gao Xiaoqin, but what he got was the news that she was arrested by Hou Liangping at the airport.
After receiving the news, Qi Tongwei completely gave up on escaping and went straight to Guying Ridge, his place of honor. From here we can see his love for Gao Xiaoqin.
After being reborn in this life, he wanted to make a complete break with the past, so he had been deliberately avoiding Gao Xiaoqin.
It was not until today when he heard the words "Lake Heart Island" that he realized that he could not forget Gao Xiaoqin at all. She was the taboo in his heart.
Thinking of this, he swore that he would never allow her to suffer or be bullied in this life.
Zhao Ruilong, Boss Liu, Hou Liangping...
Every one of you will have no chance of having an easy life.
Qi Tongwei looked calm on the surface, but in fact he was in turmoil inside. He Haoran thought he was worried about Qin Gang and Qin Hu, and didn't think about anything else.
"Captain Qi, it usually takes a few days for an elderly person to be buried. Qin Gang and Qin Hu should still be in the fishing village on the island in the middle of the lake." He Haoran explained, worried that Qi Tongwei was not familiar with the local customs.
Qi Tongwei glanced at He Haoran and said, "I know."
When they arrived at Huli Township, Qi Tongwei notified the Huli Township Police Station to follow him, ostensibly because he needed someone to lead the way.
The road to the fishing village on the island in the center of the lake is very difficult to travel on, with many potholes on the road. It took nearly an hour to walk the 30-kilometer journey.
After entering the fishing village on the island in the center of the lake, everyone got off the car at the village entrance. Cars could not pass the rest of the way, so they had to walk.
"Captain Wang, the four of you guard the entrance to the village. I will bring the people in." In order to prevent the people from the Huli Township Police Station from being recognized by the villagers, Qi Tongwei arranged for them to guard the entrance to the village.
Chief Wang did not dare to delay and immediately ordered his police officers to guard the entrance to the village.
Qi Tongwei walked towards the village and saw almost no one along the way. It seemed that everyone had gone to Qin Hu and Qin Gang's house to help.
A few people looked from afar and saw a lot of people gathered in a house with the best built courtyard. It seemed to be the home of Qin Gang and Qin Hu.
"Captain Qi, what should we do now? There are so many people. I'm worried that Qin Gang and Qin Hu will use the hostages to escape." He Haoran asked worriedly.
Qi Tongwei also frowned slightly. The current situation was very complicated. Qin Gang and Qin Hu might use the hostages to escape.
There is another possibility. The clan power in this place is quite powerful and they may become an obstacle to the capture of Qin Gang and Qin Hu.
Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and whispered to the others, "I just checked, the banner is gone. It looks like today is the day of the funeral, the body may have already been buried, and these people are having a feast.
Let's hide first, and after the banquet is over, we will quietly subdue the two and take them away."
He Haoran and the others nodded, then hid in pairs. Qi Tongwei went to another fork in the road, which was Gao Xiaoqin's home.
This time it was not only to capture Qin Gang and Qin Hu, but also to take them away.
Qi Tongwei stood in front of the dilapidated courtyard gate, feeling mixed emotions.
"Sister, there is someone standing in front of our house?" A crisp voice interrupted Qi Tongwei's thoughts. Turning around, he saw two thin girls who were less than 1 meters tall.
The two men were barefoot, holding fishing nets and buckets in their hands, staring at Qi Tongwei in a daze, "There is such a good-looking man, and he is dressed so nicely."
The two men were covered in mud, and their exposed skin was tanned red. They looked like ugly ducklings, and there was no trace of the handsome and elegant appearance they would later have.
Qi Tongwei took a deep breath, walked up to the two of them, and said softly, "Two little sisters, I have something to do in your village. Can I rest for a while at your house?"
If you listen carefully to Qi Tongwei's voice, you can hear a slight tremor in it, which shows his excitement.
"Okay, come in with me." The person who spoke was Gao Xiaoqin. Others might not be able to tell the two apart, but Qi Tongwei could recognize them at a glance.
The temperaments of the two are very different. The elder sister Gao Xiaoqin is capable and dashing, while the younger sister Gao Xiaofeng is gentle and affectionate.
Although Gao Xiaoqin is still the country girl who has never left the island in the middle of the lake, the stubbornness in her bones can still be seen.
"Thank you." Qi Tongwei took out two pieces of chocolate from his pocket and handed them to the two people. These were snacks he prepared for himself when he worked overtime.
Gao Xiaoqin and Gao Xiaofeng did not take it. They had no idea what it was.
Qi Tongwei peeled off the outer paper and stuffed it into the two people's hands. Seeing that they were still confused, he opened a piece and took a bite.
The two followed suit, took a careful bite, and started eating slowly.
Qi Tongwei only now took a look at the two people's residence. It was very shabby and could be said to be extremely poor.
"Where are your parents?" Qi Tongwei asked knowingly.
Gao Xiaoqin's parents unfortunately passed away while fishing at sea in early February this year, leaving behind two 14-year-old girls.
"Gone. I lost it when I went out to sea to fish." Gao Xiaoqin looked up at the handsome older brother, then quickly lowered her head.
"I heard that there was a banquet in your village today. Why didn't you two go?" Qi Tongwei started to find a topic.
"My sister said that our family can't afford the gift money, so she didn't let me go." Gao Xiaofeng said timidly, with a longing look in her eyes, and it seemed that she really wanted to go to the banquet.
Qi Tongwei felt uncomfortable when he thought about two 14-year-old girls who made a living by fishing at sea and couldn't even afford the most basic gift money.
Fate never favors the poor!
In his previous life, he failed in his attempt to defeat heaven. In this life, he wants to defeat heaven and protect the one he loves.
