Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife Chapter 320: Anticipate Three Moves, Lure the Snake from Its
The lights turned on again.
Through the curtains, Chen Xiao could see many shadows entering that house.
Chen Xiao held a flashlight in his hand.
Even though the flashlight was of no use anymore.
He continued to fiddle with it.
The curious couple behind couldn’t help but co closer.
Boyfriend: "Officer, there seem to be a lot of people across the street?"
Girlfriend: "Is it your colleagues trying to catch bad guys?"
Chen Xiao smiled and nodded: "As I said, whether they’re bad or not can’t be confird right now, but they’re definitely catching soone."
The boyfriend’s eyes lit up, maybe emboldened by the curtains, he said excitedly:
"So many shadows, looks like they’re capturing soone significant!"
"Not necessarily." Chen Xiao smiled and said.
Girlfriend: "How can it not be, so many people catching a bad guy, must be a terrifying criminal."
Just as the girlfriend finished speaking,
The curtain across suddenly got pulled open, and then a person was seen going to open the window.
Seeing this, Chen Xiao imdiately turned on the flashlight and shone it over.
The person rushing to the window instinctively shielded their eyes with a hand and was then pinned to the ground by the police.
When blocking, Chen Xiao saw the person’s chest was covered in blood.
Chen Xiao frowned and looked across.
Then Lin Xi quickly closed the curtains again.
Chen Xiao sighed: "Silly woman, I’ve taught her what to do, why let people know I’m right across?"
"Officer, the woman who just pulled the curtain, isn’t she your wife?"
Chen Xiao smiled and nodded: "That’s her."
"Wow, both of you are police officers!"
"I am their advisor, actually, I’m not a police officer."
The couple nodded in half-understanding, and Chen Xiao handed the flashlight back to the boyfriend, saying with a smile:
"Alright, I have to go."
"Shall I see you off?"
"No need."
Chen Xiao politely declined, but paused when he reached the door.
He took out 666 yuan from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table, smiling: "Don’t know if we’ll et again, wasn’t clear on your situation coming here, this will be a red envelope for your little one, wishing you both a lifelong love and your family peace and prosperity."
After finishing, Chen Xiao opened the door and left.
The boyfriend picked up the money from the coffee table, looked at the closed door, and exclaid: "Honey, what was the officer’s na again?"
"I said you’re absent-minded, his badge said Chen Xiao."
"Mm, we must rember him, when the baby is born and we hold a banquet, we’ll add this money to the gift account, he truly has a thoughtful heart!"
"You’re in charge."
......
After leaving the couple’s residence, Chen Xiao waited downstairs in the opposite neighborhood.
When he arrived, Lin Xi’s task force was bringing Zhang Cheng and Qiao Zhong downstairs.
Qiao Zhong was already terrified, his face pale and absent-minded.
In contrast, Madman Zhang had a slash across his chest.
But at this mont, Madman Zhang felt completely different from when Chen Xiao had seen him before,
Chen Xiao ignored Qiao Zhong, focusing his gaze on Madman Zhang: "Are you planning to publicly display your heart-removal skills for Qiao Zhong?"
Madman Zhang lifted his head: "Caught by you like this, I... am so unwilling!"
Chen Xiao pursed his lips, his eyes shifted to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi stepped forward and spoke with Chen Xiao: "I’m now suspecting he’s not pretending but has recently started to recover, otherwise, even intermittently he wouldn’t behave like this."
Chen Xiao felt it made sense.
But he still felt Madman Zhang had occasional good and bad tis.
Perhaps his recovery showed in his insane periods becoming shorter, while his good tis lasted longer.
Chen Xiao remained silent, and Lin Xi understood his intention, so she stood aside and muttered a word.
Upon hearing it, Madman Zhang’s expression changed dramatically.
In that instant, his face flushed red.
Then the veins in his neck bulged out.
He wanted to say sothing, but stimulated by the word, his thoughts started to scatter.
Chen Xiao backed off to the side, Lin Xi said sternly: "Take him away to the hospital, take good care."
"Understood, Lin Group, but what about Qiao Zhong?"
"Also take him to the hospital to check, he’s too scared to co to his senses." Lin Xi instructed.
But just as Qiao Zhong finally recognized Chen Xiao, he reacted: "Advisor Chen, my son is innocent. The murderer is that bastard Madman Zhang, he acted crazily, trying to dig out his own heart right in front of !"
"He killed Jiao Guoxuan’s family!"
Qiao Zhong said, Chen Xiao nodded: "Understood, the police will give Qiao Zhiyuan an explanation."
"That’s good, that’s good." Qiao Zhong was relieved, then followed the task force mbers to the hospital.
After they all got into the car, Lin Xi asked Chen Xiao:
"What do you think we should do next?"
Chen Xiao leaned close to Lin Xi’s ear and uttered four words: "Let the mistake continue."
Lin Xi slightly furrowed her brows, nodding: "I understand, convenient for catching thieves and scoundrels, two-timing!"
"She’s my wife for a reason, just sotis too straightforward for ."
"Not your business, I’m willing! I’m going to be busy first, can’t be bothered with you."
Lin Xi said and got into the police car as well.
Chen Xiao watched the task force’s car departing and also drove to find Han Zai.
Han Zai had returned from the detention center, and the two t at a night snack stall.
Han Zai ordered a fried noodle, while Chen Xiao ordered a clay pot porridge.
As they ate, Han Zai said: "I heard Zhang Xian ntion one of your traits, that during an investigation after completing one step, you don’t think about that step or the previous actions, but you’ve already thought ahead several steps."
"So tell , where do your thoughts connect to now?"
Chen Xiao drank the porridge and said: "Tonight, Madman Zhang will be interrogated, tomorrow morning Qiao Zhiyuan will be released, and the county bureau will even announce about the heart-removal case, trying to relieve doubts, making people completely believe we’re preparing to close the case."
"By midday tomorrow, I will leave Yangguan County with my parents and in-laws. However, I haven’t fully figured out the path ahead."
Han Zai said: "Tell , I hope to give you so advice."
"I’m wondering if all my guesses are correct, then the person behind must be extrely excited like never before. And if they commit another cri the day police close the case, it would greatly satisfy their sense of achievent. My trouble lies in figuring out who their next target will be!"
"Only by luring the snake out of its hole can I fully verify if my assumptions are right. Only when proven correct, can the motive for the cri and Madman Zhang’s true role be revealed!"
Chen Xiao shared his confusion.
Han Zai finished the plate of fried noodles in large bites, then ordered a can of beer.
As he opened the beer, Han Zai said: "A single success can make many lose their mind, they’ll believe their abilities far surpass their opponents. Thus, in a state of peak achievent, they’re likely to cause even greater commotion."
"How could one cause greater commotion? Is it easier to kill more people, or to eliminate soone connected to the case and has certain fa within the police?"
After saying this, Han Zai gulped down the beer and smiled smugly at Chen Xiao.
That smile made Chen Xiao instinctively frown, but in the blink of an eye, Chen Xiao suddenly realized!
