Chapter 24: Chen Qingshan was terrified
In fact, Xu Lao and Lao Mo's relationship wasn't good enough for Xu Lao to help Lao Mo. After all, they had only met once and got along well.
But Lao Mo knew that Lao Xu was an upright man, and that he would intervene even if he encountered a stranger, let alone someone he knew.
Old Mo had calculated this perfectly. He didn't need Old Xu to help him much; he just needed a fair platform.
Clearly, he succeeded.
Upon hearing Lao Mo's words, Chen Qingshan almost couldn't hold back and drew his gun to shoot Lao Mo.
However, this old Mo was a complete scoundrel, and Chen Qingshan wasn't foolish enough to trade his life for his.
He clenched his fists tightly and stared intently at Old Mo.
"hehe……"
Old Mo sneered, slowly stood up, and looked at him coldly.
"Chen Qingshan, if you had handled the case impartially and stopped harming me, I wouldn't have wanted to pursue the past with you."
Unfortunately, you're too eager for quick success and instant benefits, always trying to use various means to claim credit for yourself. This time, I'll let you experience the consequences of kicking a hornet's nest.
Chen Qingshan slowly released his fist, gritted his teeth, and whispered, "I haven't tortured you yet, have I?"
Saying that proves he's backed down.
Old Mo said slowly, "If I didn't have powerful connections, would I be sitting here so leisurely? Three years ago, it was because of your disciplinary violations that I was sent to jail for three years. If I don't have powerful connections this time, are you going to send me to eat peanuts?"
"No. That's not it. I just want to find out the truth of the case as soon as possible."
Chen Qingshan's tone softened.
Old Mo said coldly, "Find out the truth? Isn't the case clear enough this time? It was clearly Sha Zhu who killed the person, yet you insist on dragging me into it. What are you trying to do? Dare to say you're not targeting me?"
That's because you're too arrogant.
Chen Qingshan gritted his teeth and said, "Old Mo, can you swear to God you're really okay?"
"hehe……"
Old Mo laughed.
"What's wrong with me? Tell me, what's wrong with me? It's you who sent me to jail three years ago, causing my family to be ruined and my life cut short."
My wife is dead, my daughter is missing, and instead of investigating, you people just find some excuse to close the case.
Chen Qingshan, you're the one with the biggest problem. You don't deserve to wear this police uniform at all.
Chen Qingshan felt a chill run down his spine from his glare and took several steps back.
Old Mo's eyes were terrifying. Even Chen Qingshan, a police officer for many years, was almost scared out of his wits by that look.
Fortunately, just then, the door was pushed open with a bang.
"Chen Qingshan, what are you doing?"
The person who entered was none other than Li Zaihua, the director of the Hongxing Institute.
Chen Qingshan's heart skipped a beat; he knew what was coming.
Sure enough, Li Zaihua smiled as soon as he saw Lao Mo.
"This must be Comrade Chen Jinmo? I am Li Zaihua, the director of the Hongxing Police Station. I'm so sorry, my subordinates are incompetent and have caused you this commotion."
Li Zaihua immediately apologized to Chen Jinmo, adopting a very humble attitude.
Upon seeing that Old Mo was still handcuffed, he immediately became furious.
"Chen Qingshan, how do you handle cases? This person is here to assist in the investigation, why are you handcuffing them? Take them off immediately."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qingshan immediately ran over, took out his key, and unlocked Lao Mo's handcuffs.
Old Mo rubbed his wrist and said calmly, "Director Li, if I have committed a crime, I don't need you to arrest me; I will turn myself in."
But you arrested me without any evidence and wanted to torture me.
"What do you want? Have you become lawless? Do you think I'm just an ordinary citizen and powerless to resist?"
Li Zaihua's anger surged: "Chen Qingshan, is what he said true?"
Chen Qingshan said, feeling aggrieved, "Chief Li, he definitely didn't kill the person, and I have no evidence. However, three lives have already been taken, and all three deaths are somehow connected to him, which is why I suspect him."
Li Zaihua angrily said, "Release the person first, we'll talk about it later."
"Yes."
Chen Qingshan readily agreed.
"Wait a moment."
Old Mo said expressionlessly, "Chief Li, I don't think he's fit to wear this police uniform anymore. Three years ago, he used his power to force a confession out of me, sending me to prison for three years and causing the deaths of my wife and children."
Today, he pulled the same trick again, dragging me into the murder case. Chief Li, I feel he's no longer fit to wear this police uniform.
"Such a thing is true?"
Director Li asked in surprise.
"It's absolutely true. The reason my family was destroyed and my life was ruined is all thanks to him. Chen Qingshan, I told you before you arrested me today that if you dared to break the rules and bring me back, I would skin you alive. Director Li, I hope you can handle this matter impartially and give us, the people, an explanation."
"Chen Jinmo, are you trying to kill me?"
Chen Qingshan was furious.
Old Mo, however, remained quite calm.
"Captain Chen, this is a new country and a new society. This is the people's world now, and your old ways are doomed to fail."
After finishing his sentence, Lao Mo left with a flourish.
Director Li's face, however, was extremely gloomy.
He suppressed his anger and slowly asked, "Chen Qingshan, is what he said true?"
There was no other way; the bureau chief had just called him personally. He made it clear that if this matter wasn't handled properly, not only would Li Zaihua be finished, but he, the bureau chief, would also be finished.
This Chen Jinmo was someone whom Old Xu personally called to inquire about.
Li Zaihua was almost scared to death, so he rushed over in a hurry.
Chen Qingshan felt that he could still be saved.
He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Chief, this Chen Jinmo really has a problem."
"Where's the evidence? Show me the evidence."
"I have no evidence, but my sixth sense tells me that he must be up to something. He was at the scene of Director Wang's son's death. Jia Geng's death in the courtyard house happened in his own home."
And today, Xiaofeng died because he dodged the knife, which allowed He Yuzhu to drop the knife and kill the child.
Three lives were lost, and he was behind it all. Most importantly, these people were all his enemies, Chen Jinmo's enemies. Therefore, my suspicion of him is not without reason.
Li Zaihua was silent for a moment, then said, "Organize the case files for these three cases and send them to my office immediately. I want to take a look at them myself."
After saying that, Li Zaihua left.
Chen Qingshan also breathed a long sigh of relief. He had managed to fool them for now, but whether he could continue to fool them later depended on his fate.
Soon, the case files for all three cases were placed on Li Zaihua's desk.
Li Zaihua picked one up and started looking at it.
