Chapter 688 Xu Damao is looking for Brother Tiger
The people from the Public Security Bureau wanted to ask further questions, but those thugs were not fools. They knew that Brother Hu was gone, so they wondered what nonsense they were talking about. They had offended Brother Mazi, and the only way out for them was death.
The people at the Public Security Bureau knew they couldn't get anything out of them, and Lou Xiao'e felt something was amiss.
Lou Xiao'e stared at Xu Damao closely, her eyes revealing a trace of scrutiny and anxiety, and asked seriously: "Xu Damao, tell me the truth, do these people have any relationship with you?"
Xu Damao was a little confused by Lou Xiao'e's sudden questioning. He had thought that he was here to serve as a witness to identify the person who beat him, but from what Lou Xiao'e said, it seemed that something had happened to him and he was going to be arrested. This scared him a lot and he suddenly became panicked, not knowing what to do.
Xu Damao avoided looking directly at Lou Xiao'e, and stammered, "Xiao'e, I'll tell you these things after I get back, okay? Can you talk to the comrades at the Public Security Bureau and ask them to let me go back first?"
Lou Xiao'e was very smart. When she saw Xu Damao's guilty expression, she immediately understood that this matter must have something to do with him. If it were in the past, relying on her father's relationship, she might have tried to find a way to get Xu Damao out, but now was different. She looked at Xu Damao and said resolutely: "Xu Damao, since this matter is related to you, then just listen to the investigation of the Public Security Bureau honestly."
Xu Damao never expected that Lou Xiao'e would be so heartless. He stood there in a daze for a moment, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say to save the situation.
Afterwards, the police did not say anything more and directly "invited" Xu Damao into the interrogation room. In the interrogation room, the lights were dim and the atmosphere was so oppressive that it made people breathless. A comrade from the Public Security Bureau sat opposite Xu Damao and asked with a serious expression: "Xu Damao, do you have anything else to say?"
Xu Damao was a coward to begin with. In this tense atmosphere, his psychological defenses collapsed instantly, and he confessed everything he had done in detail, begging with a sad face: "Sirs from the Public Security Bureau, I was blinded by greed for a moment. I really know I was wrong. Please give me a chance."
However, the comrades from the Public Security Bureau still had a stern look on their faces. They ignored Xu Damao's pleading and got up and left after listening.
Lou Xiao'e was waiting anxiously outside. When she saw the comrades from the Public Security Bureau coming out, she hurried forward and asked, "What on earth is going on?"
The comrades from the Public Security Bureau simply responded that the case was related to Xu Damao. As for the specific reasons, they did not say more due to case handling regulations.
Lou Xiao'e knew that they must have their own disciplinary requirements, so she didn't ask any more questions. She thought for a moment, looked at the comrades from the Public Security Bureau, and asked cautiously, "Can I see Xu Damao again?"
The comrades from the Public Security Bureau considered it and finally arranged for Xu Damao and Lou Xiao'e to meet.
As soon as he saw Lou Xiao'e, Xu Damao felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw and shouted anxiously: "Xiao'e, you must save me! I can't stay here!"
Lou Xiao'e looked at Xu Damao with disappointment and anger in her eyes, and asked, "What's the grudge between you and He Yuzhu? He just wants to live his life peacefully. How did he offend you that you are targeting him like this?"
Xu Damao was speechless after being asked this question. He hesitated for a long time but couldn't explain it clearly. Lou Xiaoe looked at his cowardly look and said coldly: "You should reflect on it here."
Xu Damao became more anxious when he heard this. He wanted to say that it was Qin Huairu who instigated him, but then he thought that it would be useless to say it. After all, he was the one who found the person and did the thing. So he continued to beg: "Lou Xiao'e, you must save me. I really know I was wrong. I will go and apologize to He Yuzhu now. Please help me."
Lou Xiao'e didn't respond and turned to leave. But after taking two steps, she seemed to remember something and turned back. Seeing this, Xu Damao felt a glimmer of hope, thinking that Lou Xiao'e had changed her mind and was ready to save her. However, Lou Xiao'e looked at him and said calmly, "I will tell Director Yang that you were beaten up and you can't go to show the movie for the time being."
After saying that, she left without looking back. No matter how Xu Damao called out to her from behind, she did not stop at all.
When Lou Xiao'e returned to the courtyard, it was already getting dark. People in the courtyard always liked to ask questions, and when they saw Lou Xiao'e coming back alone and the police were nowhere to be seen, they naturally wanted to find out what was going on.
Yan Bugui was the first to come forward and asked curiously, "Xiao'e, where is Xu Damao? Why didn't he come back with you?"
Lou Xiao'e was upset at the moment and didn't want to say anything. She just walked towards Gu Nan's house silently. She really couldn't understand why Xu Damao targeted He Yuzhu. He Yuzhu had been doing his job well these days and had never provoked Xu Damao. What was going on? This question kept circling in her mind, making her feel extremely confused.
Yan Bugui saw that Lou Xiao'e ignored him and didn't take it to heart, so he just went back.
But he was still very unhappy in his heart. After all, he was now the second uncle in the courtyard. But when he thought of the black dog in front of Gu Nan's house, he really didn't know what to say.
When Lou Xiao'e entered Gu Nan's house, Gu Nan was drinking tea with Ran Qiuye. Ran Qiuye saw that Lou Xiao'e's expression was not right: "Sister Xiao'e, what's wrong? I just saw the police take Xu Damao away. Why are you the only one back?'
Lou Xiao'e told the whole story in detail: "Why did Xu Damao have nothing better to do than to look into He Yuzhu's affairs? He is fine. What is going on here that I don't know?"
Ran Qiuye understood immediately: "Sister Xiao'e, I guess there must be someone behind this, and this person is most likely Qin Huairu."
Lou Xiao'e understood immediately and looked at Ran Qiuye: "You mean this is all about He Yuzhu's blind date. Qin Huairu was afraid that no one in her family would help her, but she couldn't come forward, so she asked Xu Damao to come forward. This idiot, he also called He Yuzhu a fool, I think he is also a fool."
Gu Nan didn't expect that Ran Qiuye was so powerful. He understood it all at once, but didn't say anything.
Lou Xiao'e felt a little embarrassed here: "Qiu Ye, I'm going to go back and rest first."
