Fell in love with the security guard

  At night, Binjiang Avenue Xiangxiang Wine House, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor, two middle-aged men were drinking together. This is a high-end private dish restaurant, with very expensive dishes and even more expensive wine and water. Just that bottle of Wuliangye costs over a thousand yuan.

  "Old Gao, isn't this too extravagant?" The bald-headed man said politely as he sniffed the fine wine in his cup.

  "It's nothing, it's deserved. This restaurant has a good reputation, the Wuliangye is genuine, and the chef is not bad either. I heard they were hired from Shanghai at a high price." The bald-headed man sitting opposite was none other than Liu Ziguang's leader, Manager Gao of the property company.

  Baldy took a sip of wine and nodded: "That's right, it's true, good wine."

  Gao Zongdao said: "Director Wang is indeed an old gourmet. Your level of expertise would be more than enough to serve as a national-level wine taster."

  Director Wang smiled humbly, picked up the snow-white napkin to wipe his mouth, and said: "Old Gao, I've already reported what you want to do, but recently the company's personnel are tight, so there may not be any major moves in the short term. Just wait patiently."

  Gao Zong chuckled: "That would be more trouble for Director Wang, by the way, our branch company has a security manager surnamed Liu, who had a previous criminal record and was involved in another big case today and got caught, I wonder how the headquarters handles such people?"

  "It's like this, for people with a record, the company is generally dead set against it, but well, there will always be some exceptions. How about it, is this person a relative of yours?"

  "Not, not." Gao Zong hastily cleared up and said: "I'm just puzzled, this kid may have someone backing him, he's been in the company for only a few days and has already been promoted to be the head, our Captain Bai struggled for several years but didn't climb as fast as him. Does Director Wang know about this guy?"

  Director Wang thought for a moment, and the meaning of General Gao's words was already very clear to him. He said: "Alright, after I go back, I'll investigate this matter. If it's true, no matter who is involved, I will resolutely dismiss them and absolutely not tolerate it."

  "Director Wang, you've really helped me out of a big trouble. Come on, let's take a walk together, just the two of us."

  Two men clinked their glasses together and downed their drinks in one gulp.

  Twenty minutes later, with a full stomach and enough wine, General Gao suggested not driving for the time being, but rather going to the nearby Jinhui Bath Center to relax and sober up before heading home, which Minister Wang readily agreed to.

  When Director Wang and General Gao walked into the magnificent hall, Yang Feng of the Public Security Bureau was soaking in the bathing area. On the edge of the circular Chinese medicine bathtub, a mobile phone wrapped in a towel was ringing non-stop.

  "Yang Zi, whose phone is it? Why isn't he answering?" Li Zhiteng asked from the swimming pool.

  "Old Three's wife, she called me dozens of times, damn it, did her husband commit a crime or something? What's the point of looking for me?" Yang Feng's face was full of impatience, not showing any sign that he and Old Three were once close buddies.

  "By the way, what happened to Lao San's thing? I heard it was blown up by Hu Secretary's daughter with a single shot." Li Zhiteng, who had witnessed the bank robbery this afternoon, was also very interested.

  "Who knows, maybe Lao San is in a tight spot and wants to take the wrong path. I heard he's been playing big at the poker table, with wins and losses of over 100,000 yuan. This afternoon, the police went to his second wife's house to search for evidence, but who knows what they'll find." Yang Feng said, shaking his head and ignoring the phone that kept ringing beside him.

  "By the way, Yangzi, how's your relationship with Hu Rong now? Have you succeeded?" Li Zhiteng asked with a lewd expression.

  "Hmm, what do you think?" Yang Feng neither confirmed nor denied it, a confident smile spreading across his face.

  ……

  The conference room of the Municipal Public Security Bureau was filled with smoke, Director Ma presided over the meeting, several deputy directors and heads of the criminal investigation department participated, all of whom were old smokers who smoked one after another, the room was naturally smoky, and the atmosphere was a bit tense.

  "The relationship between Jin Dun company's Li Youquan and the robbers still needs to be further confirmed, I think there are many suspicious points. How did they get to know each other? And how did they end up together? Li Youquan is a middle-level executive in the company, with an annual dividend of 100,000 yuan, it's not worth risking his life for this kind of thing. He used to be a police officer and understands the severity of armed robbery, he doesn't even have the motivation to do such a thing."

  The speaker was Deputy Director Sun, who was in charge of logistics work. The city's three productions were under his management. In the evening, the wife of Liang Paozi from Jinsui Company came to see him and gave him a heavy red envelope, asking him to help smooth things over and keep Old Liang's position secure.

  Deputy Director Sun wasn't entirely trying to help Liang Pangzi, mainly because after this incident, his face wouldn't look good either. Well, the security company had an internal traitor, assisting robbers in robbing a bank, if this gets out, it would be very embarrassing. With this consideration, he really wanted to help Li Youquan get off scot-free, at least not have him mixed up with the robbers.

  The head of the criminal investigation department, Deputy Director Song Jianfeng, immediately retorted after listening to Director Sun's words: "Our forensic colleagues have already read the lip language, Li Youquan actively surrendered to the robbers at the scene of the crime, disrupting our operation and directly threatening Comrade Hu Rong's life. This has been confirmed in the confessions of several other hostages, and after two robbers were killed, he even picked up a five-shot pistol and tried to make a desperate attempt to escape, which can explain the problem."

  Deputy Director Sun was about to refute, Song Jianfeng added: "We have searched Li Youquan's residence and found that he has a second wife outside of his wife and children. He bought a 150-square-meter duplex apartment and often gambles, playing quite big, owing at least 600,000 yuan in gambling debts. His expenses are high and his life is corrupt. I think these are all motives for him to go astray. Moreover, because he used to be a policeman, he is familiar with our ways, so he has more guts and confidence to take risks."

  Deputy Director Sun couldn't say anything else and could only lower his head and smoke heavily.

  Director Ma coughed and glanced at his subordinates, including Old Xu, the head of the criminal investigation team.

  Old Xu stood up and said: "Regarding another suspect, Liu Ziguang, I think there are many doubts about him. This person is not clean, has been involved in mercenary work abroad, and has a very complicated background. Why did he rush into the bank at that time and location, shoot and kill two robbers, and hit all the vital points? It's clear that he didn't intend to leave any survivors, which is very suspicious."

  Director Ma nodded in approval and took a sip of tea, adding: "Comrade Xu's speech is very reasonable."

  Song Jianfeng bluntly retorted, "So-called foreign mercenaries are purely nonsense. I can be sure that this person's background is clean and doesn't need to be questioned. As for why he rushed into the bank at that time, isn't there already an answer? It was to rescue the little girl who was kidnapped by Li Youquan."

  Old Xu's neck muscles twitched as he argued strongly: "Why did he go to rescue him? What does it have to do with him?"

  Song Jianfeng sneered: "It's meaningless to say this again, several members of the municipal party committee met this afternoon, and the secretary of the municipal party committee slammed his fist on the table. His original words were 'Are we Jiangbei City in Hongtong County where there are no good people?' A heroic figure who dares to do justice, still has to be suspected, investigated, and even tortured, what kind of logic is this?"

  Since Song Jianfeng has already brought out the municipal party secretary, everyone doesn't have anything good to say anymore. This matter has been settled. The brave intern female police officer and the righteous citizen who dared to act, cooperated to eliminate three robbers who were in cahoots with each other. It's both legendary and glorious, and everyone's face is saved, so why not be joyful?

  Director Ma's face didn't look good, but he had no choice but to announce the end of the meeting. The only thing he could do was to seal off Li Youquan's true identity from outsiders, saying that he was just a temporary worker for some company, in order to eliminate the negative impact.

  After the meeting, Old Xu found Song Jianfeng and handed him a cigarette in the corridor, asking: "Song Bureau, I still don't understand why Li Youquan wanted to kidnap Scar's wife and child before robbing the bank. These are two completely unrelated things that can't be connected."

  Song Jianfeng said: "I also have this feeling, but some cases are really unclear, maybe two things coincidentally came together, except for the parties involved, others will not understand, now Li Youquan is dead, to know about this matter, can only go to the underworld to ask him."

  Old Xu took a few more puffs of his cigarette and asked, "What's the background on that Liu Ziguang? Why is it that there's no record of him for eight whole years, not even the police can find any clues?"

  Song Jianfeng smiled faintly: "Some secrets are not for people at our level to know, just understand it in your heart." Then he walked away with big strides, leaving Old Xu with a shocked face.

  ……

  In the municipal hospital ward, it was already 10 o'clock at night. The reporters had left and my parents were also persuaded to go back, leaving only Bei Xiaoshuai and a few brothers to accompany me.

  This is a VIP ward, with only one bed for Liu Ziguang. The brothers opened the window and lit cigarettes, puffing out smoke, when suddenly there was a knock at the door. Bai Xiaoshuai was startled and quickly hid the cigarette behind his back. He went to open the door and found it wasn't the nurse making rounds, but rather *** bringing his wife and Mao Hai to visit Liu Ziguang.

  Hurry up and let them in, Liu Ziguang saw them coming and immediately jumped off the bed to complain: "Sister-in-law, it's so late and you're still coming over, it's raining outside, getting rained on is not good."

  "Brother, I heard you were injured and my heart couldn't rest. I thought to myself, what is heaven thinking? Always letting good people suffer. Come over and take a look, only then can I put my mind at ease. Heaven is still fair after all."

  Liu Ziguang smiled and said: "Don't worry about your sister-in-law, this is just a minor injury, I'll be discharged from the hospital in a few days."

  "Brother, your scar knows about it, let's put the food aside for now and talk about it when you're better."

  "Uh-huh." Liu Ziguo nodded, "After I'm discharged from the hospital, there are many things to be done."

  ……

  At one o'clock in the middle of the night, inside a luxurious mansion in Binjiang Jin'guancheng, the phone suddenly rang. A slender white arm stretched out from under the covers, turned on the bedside lamp, checked the caller ID first, and then picked up the phone.

  "Jiang Xueqing, you little scoundrel, what are you calling so late for?" Li Yan yawned and said at the same time, glancing at her son sleeping beside her. Fortunately, the little guy was sleeping soundly and hadn't been woken up.

  The voice on the phone was muffled and noisy, seemingly from a TV station's workspace. A female voice spoke up: "Nian Nian, I've fallen in love."

  Li Niang smiled, sat up straight, her raven-black hair cascading down like a waterfall, scattered on her silk nightgown. She teased and said: "Our little Qing is in love again, how many times this month? Which young master has caught your eye now?"

  The low voice on the other end of the phone said, "Nian Nian, this time it's true, not some young master, but a security guard."
