The mother-in-law is a police officer, and the criminal gangs came to give gifts

Chapter 3 What does your gift have to do with us?
Yuan Cheng: “…”

other people:"……"

Yuan Cheng and the others were all stunned.

Your mother-in-law is a police officer, what does it have to do with us?

Yuan Ben wanted to curse, and so did the others, but they were stopped by a look from Yuan Cheng.

"Young man, even if your mother-in-law is a police officer, there's no need for her to tie us up, right?"

"Besides, aren't you interested in that batch of gold?"

Yuan Cheng tempted Su Rui step by step: "You have to think clearly. Even if your mother-in-law is a police officer, it has nothing to do with you. Even if your mother-in-law has made great contributions, so what? What benefits can you get?"

"Why not take that batch of gold and run abroad to become a millionaire, and live a carefree life? With that batch of gold, you can find any woman you want."

"Not to mention just one, even several won't be a problem."

"Brothers, is this the truth?"

"Yes, yes, Brother Yuan is absolutely right."

"Isn't that the truth?"

Several of them were wanted criminals who had committed serious crimes and the police had no clue about them for many years. They did have some cleverness.

Now their lives are in Su Rui's hands. As long as they can convince Su Rui, they still have a chance of survival.

If I really get sent to the police station, I'll be finished.

As for gold, as long as I can gain my freedom, I can just rob it again later. It's not like I won't have another chance.

Many people do things that cost money to avoid disaster.

Su Rui was so angry that he almost laughed after listening to this. Not only did these people not give up even after such a situation, they even wanted to drag him into this.

He didn't want to know what the gold was like, and he didn't want to know how much there was. But he was very clear about one thing: as long as he took it, these people would have a handle on him, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was an accomplice.

If he was really caught, Yuan Cheng and others would be sentenced to death, and he would not be able to escape prison.

Besides, what does he want the gold for?
It’s not like I’m short of money.

If you really need money, you have hands and feet, so how can you starve to death?
"Stop talking. I have no interest in gold. Just stay here quietly for one night and cooperate with me to get the job done. Don't force me to be harsh with you." Su Rui's words directly extinguished the last hope of several people.

Yuan Cheng looked dejected.

How can someone who is not interested in gold convince others?
However, Yuan Cheng still gave up: "Brother, do you really have to hand us over to your mother-in-law?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

Su Rui said unhappily, "Tomorrow I will go to my girlfriend's house for the first time, so I have to bring some gifts. Cosmetics and health products are too common and nothing new. I don't know what else to give. It just so happens that my girlfriend's mother is a police officer, and you are wanted criminals. Isn't this the best gift?"

"Fuck, you treat us as gifts?" Yuan Cheng's eyes almost popped out.

No matter how clear his mind was, he would never have thought that Su Rui kidnapped them for this reason.

What the hell!

Who can be willing to do this?
I can't rest my eyes!
Some people were indignant: "This is your first visit, don't you know it's none of our business? Can't you just buy something? Why are you making things difficult for us?"

"You are restricting citizens' personal freedom, which is illegal," someone shouted angrily.

Su Rui turned to look at him and said righteously: "Cooperating with the police to arrest wanted criminals, shouldn't this be considered a three-good citizen? The police station should even give you a reward!"

"A-level wanted criminal, there must be a hundred thousand of them!"

"With the addition of you guys, I think two hundred thousand is no problem."

Su Rui was busy calculating his own things.

Two hundred thousand was a considerable sum of money. It would take at least two to three years for an ordinary working class person to save it, and that too while they had to live frugally.

Not a lot.

Yuan Cheng wanted to cry but had no tears.

Two hundred thousand.

That batch of gold could be sold for several million at any price, and this is still a low price. The market price could easily be tens of millions.

And there are quite a few diamonds among them, easily worth 20 or 30 million.

Two hundred thousand is nothing!
"Do you know how much that batch of gold is worth?"

"What does it have to do with me?"

Yuan Cheng didn't expect that Su Rui would be completely unmoved.

Now several people could no longer sit still and started cursing loudly.

Anyway, Su Rui had no intention of letting them go. He had to scold them as much as possible before they were sent to the police station, because he would have no chance later.

Su Rui couldn't stand being scolded anymore, so he found some tape to seal the mouths of Yuan Cheng and others.

The room suddenly became quiet.

……

at the same time.

Beijiang District Public Security Bureau.

A certain conference room.

Xing Shixuan from the Public Security Bureau chaired the meeting.

Xing Shixuan flipped through the information in front of him, his face darkened. "Xia Jie, there is still no clue in the case three years ago? What are you doing with the criminal investigation? Don't forget, this case is on the list in the city and the province. It's okay if we can't catch anyone in a short time, but there shouldn't be no clues at all. How can I report this to the higher-ups?"

"Director Xing, there is a reason why there are still no clues in this case."

“Old Li, I don’t know if there is a reason?”

Xing Shixuan glanced at Old Li who was speaking and said, "I also know there is a reason, but are you going to let me explain it to the higher-ups like this? If it doesn't work, report it to the higher-ups and let the comrades from the city criminal investigation detachment handle it!"

"Director Xing, we have been following this case for three years, and now..." Xia Jie could no longer sit still when she heard that Xing Shixuan planned to report this major case to the Criminal Investigation Detachment for handling.

Xing Shixuan said unhappily: "Xia Jie, I know you all want to solve this case, but have you ever thought that this case can't be delayed indefinitely like this?"

"The longer you delay, the smaller the chance of solving the case. Rather than wasting time and affecting your other cases, it is better to hand it over to the higher-ups. The forces they can mobilize are not comparable to our branch office, and we may not be able to gain anything."

"Director Xing..."

Xia Jie gritted her teeth, she was unwilling to give in.

It was not just because she had to hand over the major case that she had been investigating for three years to someone else, but more importantly, the policeman who died at the hands of the gangsters three years ago was her subordinate, and a young man who had just joined the job for less than a year.

She wanted to catch the criminals herself and bring justice to the young policeman.

Evil cannot be allowed to go unpunished.

She wasn't the only one who thought so. Almost everyone in the Criminal Investigation Team had the same idea.

Xing Shixuan had been in the branch for many years, so he naturally knew about the gold robbery that year, and he also knew what Xia Jie's criminal investigation team was thinking.

But there was nothing he could do now. His superiors had urged him again and again, and the deadline for solving the case had been extended from one year to three years, and he still couldn't see any hope. He really couldn't take it any longer.

"Xia Jie, you guys..."

Xing Shixuan was about to speak when he found that Xia Jie and others from the Criminal Investigation Team were looking at him with great expectation. He really couldn't bear to refuse, so he sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I'll give it to you again!"

Xia Jie's face lit up: "Thank you, Director Xing!"

Others also said: "Thank you, Director Xing!" Xing Shixuan raised his hand to interrupt them: "Don't be in a hurry to thank me, I can help you again this time, but I have to say that I can only give you one month at most.

If there is still no clue after a month, I won’t be able to suppress it anymore, and the city’s criminal investigation team will definitely take over.”

Xia Jie also knew that the city had been planning to take over the case for a long time, and naturally knew that it would be difficult for Xing Shixuan to withstand the pressure from above, so she nodded quickly: "It will only be one month, Director Xing, don't worry. By that time, if we really can't find any clues, it will be our fault if the city takes over."

Xing Shixuan looked up at the clock opposite him and said, "Wow, it's almost nine o'clock. Let's go. This matter is settled."

Xia Jie and others took their notebooks and left.

Criminal Investigation Brigade Office.

As soon as Lao Li came in, he complained, "Captain, we've been investigating that case for three years and still have no clues. Giving us a month won't help! We need at least a year, or at least half a year!"

"It takes less than a month to sort out the information, how can we find important clues?"

"Old Li is right, one month is too short a time."

Others also answered.

They had all started investigating the gold robbery three years ago. As they investigated along the way, they naturally knew how difficult the criminals were back then. Now there were almost no traces left.

The only witnesses died.

The first police officer who arrived at the scene also died in the line of duty.

In addition, many people are no longer in Ningcheng, and some have even gone abroad. There are fewer and fewer witnesses, and it is impossible to investigate the gold robbery case now.

Xia Jie also knew that one month was not enough, but the team members below could complain, but she couldn't: "Let's all get over it. It's good enough that Director Xing can help us buy a month. This matter can't be blamed on Director Xing. He has tried his best, otherwise this case would have been taken over by the city long ago."

"I don't blame Director Xing. I just think the higher-ups are pushing us too hard. They have no idea how difficult it is to investigate the gold robbery case. If they really take over, they still won't be able to find any clues."

"Old Li, you can't say that." Xia Jie said seriously.

Criticizing the superiors is a heinous crime.

"I'm just saying this here, I won't tell anyone else." Old Li explained quickly.

Xia Jie was still extremely serious: "That won't work either. Besides, we can't blame the higher-ups for pushing us too hard. It's because the impact is too great. Plus, so many people died, including police officers. Naturally, the higher-ups want to solve the case as quickly as possible."

Xia Jie scolded him for a few words, then turned around and said, "Let's not talk about this. Everyone must be hungry after working overtime. Let's go out and eat something, and then go home."

"Old Li, you have to work overtime tomorrow and come and find two people to sort out the information about the gold robbery again. Maybe we can find some information that we haven't noticed before."

"Okay, leave it to me."

"Captain is not coming tomorrow?" a young criminal police officer suddenly asked.

Xia Jie explained: "My daughter's boyfriend is coming to visit us for the first time tomorrow, so I won't be here in the morning. I'll come after lunch."

"Xiao Mi has a boyfriend?"

"How come we haven't heard of it?"

Xia Jie smiled slightly: "We've been dating for five or six years."

"Well, we agreed to this a month ago, and I can't stand up my future son-in-law."

"A boy that Xiao Mi likes must be quite outstanding."

"It's OK as long as I'm acceptable to you. I don't have too many requirements. Anyway, Xiao Mi likes him, he's a nice person with a strong sense of justice, so I don't have any objection." Xia Jie smiled. She didn't have too high expectations for her future son-in-law.

To her, her daughter's boyfriend is still a stranger.

How much can one expect from a stranger?
"Your requirements are not low." Everyone laughed.

"Stop being so rude and go eat."

"Let's go, let's go. It's been almost ten hours since I had lunch. My stomach is shrinking with hunger."

……

Half past ten in the evening.

Xia Jie dragged her tired body back home and saw her daughter Shen Mi still curled up on the sofa watching TV. She frowned and said, "Xiao Mi, why haven't you gone to bed yet?"

"Mom, why did you come back just now?"

Shen Mi looked at the time and found that it was already very late, so she couldn't help but ask.

"There is a case at work and we need to hold a meeting." Xia Jie didn't explain much. She seldom told her family about work time, especially when it came to cases.

It's not just because I want to keep it a secret, but also because I don't want to make my family worry.

"Is it the gold robbery from three years ago?" Seeing her mother's sad face, Shen Mi immediately thought of the gold robbery of that year.

Xia Jie was not surprised that her daughter could guess it.

The gold robbery case caused a lot of sensation that year, and it happened within the jurisdiction of the Beijiang District Public Security Bureau, so the case naturally fell into her hands.

With Shen Mi's intelligence, how could he not know?

"Where's your dad?"

"Didn't you go to Beijing to participate in a Go tournament a few days ago?"

Shen Mi said: "Calculating the time, I'm afraid he won't be back until next week."

"Look at me, I almost forgot about this."

Xia Jie slapped her forehead and said, "When people get old, their memory becomes worse and they become very forgetful."

"You are confused by the case." Shen Mi was speechless.

"But, Mom, you haven't found any clues in that case yet?" Shen Mi was a little confused. She knew her mother's abilities. During her tenure as captain of the Criminal Investigation Brigade, she solved many major cases and was known as the Queen of Criminal Investigation. She was second to none in the entire Ningcheng.

It has gained considerable fame in the province.

But now he is stumped by the gold robbery three years ago.

Three years have passed, and not only has the person not been caught, but even no clues have been found.

"Don't worry about the case. I'm going to take a shower first and you should go to bed early."

"know."

"But, Mom, don't forget that your future son-in-law is coming tomorrow. Don't let me wake you up in the morning and you go to work right away." Seeing that her mother was really going to the bathroom with her clothes, Shen Mi hurriedly reminded her.

"I know, I know. Don't worry."

After instructing her mother, Shen Mi sent another message to Su Rui: "Are you asleep?"

"No."

"Have you prepared the gift for my mother?"

"I'm ready, just rest assured!"

"Okay, I'll go to bed then. Good night."

"good night!"

In the house rented by Yuan Cheng, Su Rui put down his phone, sat on the sofa and looked at them helplessly: "Can you please stop making such noises? Can you let me rest? I have to meet my future mother-in-law tomorrow. I can't go with panda eyes, can I?"

Yuan Cheng and others glared at Su Rui and made louder noises.

Want to sleep?
We don't have a good life, so you don't have to expect to have a good life either.
