The peninsula is like a shadow

Chapter 174
"Can you get used to the environment here? Do you think it's too noisy? Try this, fresh ingredients are guaranteed."

Li Yan picked up the wine bottle and filled Cui Junzhi's glass, then pushed the spicy fried clams in front of him.Cui Junzhi shook his head, picked up the wine glass with his right hand, and protected it with his left hand to signal to Li Yan.

When the old policeman saw Cui Junzhi's actions, his eyes flickered and he picked up the wine glass.

"Lao Xu, you can't drink alcohol yet. The doctor said it will take at least a month."

The old policeman nodded, put the glass down, and reached for the drink next to him.Li Yan smiled when he saw the old policeman.There were three people at the table, Li Yan, Cui Junzhi and the old policeman.

The complexity and seriousness of the case far exceed the awareness of the Director of the National Police Agency. When did our Seoul Police Agency become so powerful?Can you even handle major cross-border cases?Listening to Cui Junzhi's serious report on the results of the battle, the director's first reaction was to release the person immediately and pretend that nothing had happened.

Look at the person you arrested, he actually has a gun.Isn't this a desperado?The director thought of many possibilities in an instant. For example, one night, he was shot eight times in the back and committed suicide because he refused to execute the note handed over from above.

While taking a breath, he watched Cui Junzhi look upright. This was a major case. The director first determined the case and then told Cui Junzhi that it must be kept secret. In order to achieve greater results, the news must be kept within the police department.

Cui Jun was not happy. He thought of the brother he had just met, the brother who smiled at him with sweat on his face.Under the leadership of the old policeman, he came to the tavern.

He saw Yoona and Xu Xian smiling happily on the wall of the tavern. He knew that this was the place where Li Yan liked to stay, so the drinkers dressed simply and shouting loudly were not so annoying.Although he is actually not used to it.

"Li Yanxi, this is what it is now. If the director cannot make a quick decision, it will be very troublesome to solve the subsequent cases. We have arrested people, and if nothing else, those cross-border criminals have begun to plan countermeasures , This will make us very passive. We obviously caught them off guard, now."

Li Yan could see that Cui Junzhi was very angry, and was very upset that the interrogation of the captured important suspects could not start immediately. Because the director said that they wanted to keep it secret, the criminals were all taken away by the director.The fourth team has even begun to be ordered not to go out to handle cases.

"Try it, see if you're anxious."

Li Yan never expressed his opinion, but persuaded Cui Junzhi to try Dahlia's brother's cooking. It has to be said that the cooking level of this spicy fried clam is definitely top-notch even if it is served in a big hotel.

Cui Junzhi blushed quickly. Korean spiciness always has a hint of sweetness, but the spiciness of this dish is simply spicy. The umami and spiciness of the clams stimulated the taste buds at the same time. Cui Junzhi knew for the first time what it felt like to be unable to stop. .

Li Yan personally brought a glass of water to Cui Junzhi and placed it next to him. He had no choice but to do so. This little guy was used to being rich. If a dahlia was brought over, Li Yan was worried that Cui Junzhi would refuse to drink it because of the oil stains on the dahlia's apron.

"I don't quite understand how the National Police Department handles cases, but I know what Jun Zhi said is right. Only vigorous and resolute actions and merciless attacks can completely eliminate criminals."

"Li Yanxi, you really agree with my idea. I knew it was like this. How did the director know how much danger we were taking at that time. Alas~~"

Li Yan agreed with Cui Junzhi's idea, which made him very happy.But the more this happened, the more he felt sorry for Li Yanxi. He originally wanted to secretly give him some rewards from his superiors, but the case was now shelved.

"Jun Zhi, you don't understand, and I don't understand, but Lao Xu must understand. I think Lao Xu will definitely be able to give you an accurate answer to these things. But I want to remind Jun Zhi that this world has never been the same Colors, black and white, light and dark, are all mixed together. If you find it unacceptable, I think it is better to forget this case."

"How can that work? I will never give up. Brother~~ you didn't see Lao Pu's testimony. These people are really guilty. Looking at the numerous crimes they committed in South Korea, I can't wait to kill them myself. Lao Xu, Li Yanxi said you understand, tell me, what's going on?"

Seeing how anxious the child was, he even called me brother.Li Yan pretended not to hear. After all, he didn't know who was older between him and Cui Junzhi. Besides, this was just Cui Junzhi's excitement. He couldn't admit it, otherwise he would be shy.

Lao Xu is very grateful to Li Yan. This is not the first time that Li Yan has pushed him in front of Cui Junzhi. Even if he never thought of this possibility, just looking at Cui Junzhi's expression now, Lao Xu knows that he has become Cui Junzhi's trust. Only in the following words, Lao Xu was sure to seize this opportunity.

Looking at Cui Junzhi's expectant eyes, and then looking at the indifferent Li Yan, Lao Xu said slowly in a low voice,

"Superintendent Cui, it's not that the case has been shelved. The director wants to see if anyone has handed over a note."

"Pass a note? What do you mean?"

"That's the literal meaning. Is there anyone who can speak for these suspects? If it is a very powerful cop, this matter may end here."

"Crack~~"

Cui Junzhi slammed the table angrily, and then looked around in a panic, fearing that his actions would make other drinkers feel rude.It turned out that the problem he was worried about didn't exist at all. The group of drinkers seemed not to hear it and were still talking to each other at the top of their lungs.

"Can this kind of case be stopped at the drop of a hat?"

"It's not the first time. If I didn't believe in Superintendent Cui's character, I wouldn't have said it even to death. Say something that makes Superintendent Cui look down upon. Lao Xu has long been discouraged and is counting the time until the day he retires." "Can't. , No, don’t be disheartened, this case must not end like this.”

The old policeman performed his acting skills at full capacity, and his hesitant expression and movements were on point. Old Xu looked at Inspector Cui with worried eyes, lowered his head and said,
"I have a younger brother who disappeared under private investigation because he refused to give up the case. In South Korea, the police are useless."

Cui Junzhi didn't seem to believe what Lao Xu said, but looking at Lao Xu's expression, he knew that Lao Xu shouldn't lie to him.Think again about the strange attitude of the director when he reported the case that day.Cui Junzhi slapped the table again and drank the wine in the glass bitterly.

Li Yan didn't say anything. He was about to fill up the wine bottle for Cui Junzhi. Unexpectedly, Cui Junzhi grabbed the bottle and poured it for Li Yan first, then filled up his own, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Lao Xu, I said, this case must not end here. Hand in a note? There are many people who can hand in the note. Let me ask you, Lao Xu, can you follow me to pursue it?"

Lao Xu was obviously a little surprised. He looked at Cui Junzhi and said nothing. He seemed to be thinking very tangledly for a long time. He looked at Li Yan again and then said softly,

"Superintendent Cui, in addition to our own efforts, we can achieve the current results to a large extent by relying on the help of Li Yanxi. If nothing unexpected happens, our arrest must have made the criminal gang mentally prepared for the next We all have no idea how to proceed, to what extent, and how much police force is required. It’s not that Lao Xu is unwilling to follow Superintendent Cui, or it’s not that Lao Xu has no justice in his psychology, but there are really too many problems here, unless.”

Cui Junzhi was very anxious. If Lao Xu did not support him, he would not even be able to find a second person to whom he could complain.Hearing Lao Xu's hesitation, Cui Junzhi asked quickly,
"Unless what?"

"Unless Li Yanxi promises to do his best to help us, Lao Xu is afraid of being shot on the way home."

"This is our police force's business. How can we force Li Yan to commit suicide?"

"Li Yanxi's ability far exceeds that of our police force. I can't trust the police force, but I trust Li Yanxi."

Lao Xu passed the ball to Li Yan again, but Li Yan said nothing.Looking at Cui Junzhi's expectant eyes, Li Yan picked up the wine glass and drank slowly.

"Li Yanxi, I, I, Lao Xu, hey~~"

Because of his integrity and years of cultivation, Cui Junzhi did not say his request in the end. He felt that it was too difficult for Li Yan.

"I used to be a radical person in Japan. I am not worthy of the trust of Inspector Cui and Officer Xu."

Li Yan's answer is simple. If Superintendent Cui investigates his background, he will definitely be able to find out. It is better to show off his cards at this moment.Sure enough, as Li Yan expected, Cui Junzhi looked at Li Yan in disbelief.

Li Yan put down his wine glass and spoke again,
"Otherwise, I would not have been reported to be related to the deceased. Because of my status, some gang gatherings would invite me to be present as a witness."

"Be a witness? Li Yanxi, do you really know the deceased?"

"I don't know them. I just listen to what they talk about and then decide which party broke the rules."

"Aren't you SM's security director?"

"I am SM's security chief and I used to be a Yakuza."

After saying this, Li Yan did not speak again, but gave Cui Junzhi time to digest the news.As if to prove his words, Li Yan opened his shirt, revealing the large tattoos on his chest and shoulders.

Cui Junzhi left, and so did Lao Xu.When Lao Xu left, he nodded slightly to Li Yan. Li Yan guessed that Lao Xu seemed to be sure that Cui Junzhi would think it through.Li Yan knew that he was actually gambling.

"Oppa, are you hot?"

"Bring this plate of food to your father. I haven't touched it. There is enough left for you to eat."

Li Yan fastened the buttons and motioned to Jin Zhiyan to take away the extra dishes on the table.Jin Zhiyan came very early, and she would not miss any opportunity to work, such as helping Dahlia clean the fresh seafood.

Jin Zhiyan slowly accompanied Li Yan to eat, and when she saw that Li Yan's wine glass was empty, she would fill it up immediately.Li Yan could hear the drinker next to him teasing Jin Zhiyan's father, and Jin Zhiyan must have heard it too, but she seemed to be braver, sitting upright, and felt that it was normal for her to sit and eat with Li Yan, or maybe she had a hint of A little bit of pride.
