The stolen magic is a bit magical

Chapter 243 The Mayor Invites

His eyes returned to Jiangcheng.

Jiangcheng has awakened from the long winter night.

Another sunny day is coming.

Lin Xiaosu opened his eyes in the hotel, stretched out his hand, and the cell phone was taken out from the secret space and fell into his palm.

A frantic search for the signal.

Text messages keep coming...

His eyes fell on the screen. Ding Ruoshui's call, Ding Ruoshui's second call, Ding Ruoshui's third call...

In a flash, seven messages appeared, all notifications of incoming calls.

Lin Xiaosu flicked his finger and called back!

The call was quickly connected, and Ding Ruoshui's voice came: "Oh my God, you finally called, help me..."

"Fuck... who wants to kill you?"

"My mom!" Ding Ruoshui said, "She didn't sleep last night. She was staring at me and insisted that I call you. When the call didn't go through, she went to bother my dad and insisted on getting her son-in-law out..."

Lin Xiaosu sighed: "Daxia is such a good mother-in-law... Tell my mother-in-law that I just had a few drinks with Captain Shen last night. I was drunk and didn't notice that there was no signal at the place where we were drinking."

"..."

Ding Ruoshui hung up the phone, jumped up from the bed, ran out of the room, and went straight to the second floor: "Mom, please don't bother my dad so early in the morning. Your son-in-law is fine. He was not beaten. He just drank with his friends and got drunk. And there is no signal where we drank."

Yes, at this moment, her mother was really torturing Ding Lizhong, forcing him to go find the secretary immediately...

Ding Ruoshui's reply.

Ding Lizhong was completely liberated.

Mother Ding smiled happily: "Then let him come over, I will make lunch for you..."

"No need to come over, he said...he said he wants to go back!" Ding Ruoshui said, "I'll go see him off!"

Mother Ding said, "Okay! Send him home and visit his mother. I'll get you a gold bracelet and you can give it to her as a gift..."

"That's not good!" Ding Ruoshui was stunned.

"You little brat, do you know any manners? He's been to our place twice, and you didn't even go to his house to see his mother? Is that reasonable?"

"Then there's no need to send your collection over..." Ding Ruoshui was a little confused.

"Didn't he bring jewelry when he came to my house?"

Ding Ruoshui was devastated: "I bought it with my own money... He didn't spend a penny! He just picked it up..."

"We are all family, why should we care about anything?" Ding's mother ran into the next room, took out a jewelry box, and put an exquisite gold bracelet in it.

Mother Ding handed the bracelet to her and gave her some instructions...

Going to the countryside is different from going to the city.

Be down-to-earth and know how to lend a hand when you see household chores.

When you meet people, smile sweetly.

As for the seventh and eighth aunts, you should follow Xiao Su. If Xiao Su calls her the third aunt, you should call her the third aunt. If Xiao Su calls her the fourth uncle, you should call her the fourth uncle...

Ding Ruoshui couldn't help it: "What if he calls his mother 'Mom'? What should I do? Call her Mom too?"

"What's wrong with calling me mom? Let Xiao Su call me mom, and see if I'm happy..."

Ding Ruoshui slapped herself on the forehead: "Mom, is this boy so good? You completely lose your principles in front of him! Have you forgotten what I told you before? You said girls should be reserved! You should keep yourself clean..."

"That was when you were a kid! Are you still a kid now?" Mother Ding glared at her. "You're already 25 or 26 and are about to turn 30, yet you're still so reserved! If you continue to be so reserved, my son-in-law will be kidnapped..."

"Mom, please stop talking. Can't I go?" Ding Ruoshui ran away.

When she crossed half of Jiangcheng and appeared in front of Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu stood on the side of the road seemingly in a daze.

"Hi!" Ding Ruoshui greeted him, "Are we heading straight to Fengcheng now?"

Lin Xiaosu got into the car and said, "Let's go to the municipal government dormitory first."

Ding Ruoshui was slightly surprised: "Municipal government dormitory building? What for?"

"You were not the only one who called last night. There was also a strange number that called me. I just called you back and then called this strange number back. The person on the other end was Mayor He's secretary. He told me that Mayor He wanted to talk to me..."

Ding Ruoshui's brows suddenly furrowed.

Mayor He...

Want to talk to him?
Why does my whole stomach feel wrong?
Mayor He's only son, He Bin, died at a wedding banquet yesterday in front of thousands of people. He died suddenly after an argument with Lin Xiaosu.

If Lin Xiaosu was not a detective and was unable to solve the case on the spot, he would be the murderer of He Bin.

The reality is, Lin Xiaosu is a detective!

He solved the case on the spot!

He was cleared of suspicion.

But can Mayor He really let go of the death of his only son?
Can I really face Lin Xiaosu with a normal mind?
Even though Lin Xiaosu was not the real murderer of He Bin, people are used to passing the buck. When a relative dies, they will hold a grudge against those who are related to the death of their relatives...

"What does this meeting mean?" Ding Ruoshui's voice was steady.

"You'll know once you see it?" "If you see it...will you be put in jail for abusing your power for personal gain?"

Lin Xiaosu glanced at her and said, "Have you ever seen anyone who abuses his power for personal gain meet the person he intends to frame face to face?"

Ding Ruoshui nodded gently...

That's true!
Power is a rather mysterious thing.

The power effect is most obvious when it is used to go through the back door, but when it is used through the front door, the power is not reflected.

Therefore, whenever power is abused for personal gain, the real culprit is hiding behind the scenes.

Today, the real protagonist walked directly to the stage...

The car drove through the streets and alleys and arrived at a residential area.

This community is backed by the city government office building.

It looks very grand, but also somewhat old-fashioned. Yes, this community has been built for more than 30 years. No matter how grand it was back then, it has become somewhat old with the passage of time.

There was a young man waiting at the gate.

He is the mayor's secretary.

As soon as he saw Lin Xiaosu, he lifted the barrier and let her pass, then directed Ding Ruoshui to drive the car to the garage...

In Building No. 7, the secretary accompanied Lin Xiaosu into the elevator.

Ding Ruoshui was waiting in the car.

When they arrived outside Room 703, the secretary gently opened the door: "Mr. Lin, please come in. I'm outside!"

Lin Xiaosu entered the room.

The room is not small, more than 100 square meters, which is a relatively large living area in the provincial capital. It is decorated in Chinese style, which should have been considered high-end at the time, but it is a bit old now. The furniture and other items are also above average.

If it were placed in an ordinary family, this would definitely be prominent.

However, for the mayor of Jiangcheng, a sub-provincial city, this is just average.

In a word, it does not deliberately show the officials' hard work and simplicity, but it is definitely not high-end or high-end.

A man walked out of the study, it was He Gaosheng.

Less than a day had passed since yesterday's wedding banquet, and he seemed to have aged ten years.

He Gaosheng raised his hand slightly: "Detective Lin, please sit down!"

Lin Xiaosu sat down, and He Gaosheng sat opposite him. He picked up the teapot on the coffee table and poured a cup of tea for Lin Xiaosu: "Detective Lin, I came to you specifically to ask you why He Bin became the target of the murderer? Was he really just randomly chosen to frame you?"

Lin Xiaosu held the teacup in his hand and hesitated slightly...

"Detective Lin was able to solve such a secret murder case. His detective skills are amazing. Is there really no way to go further?" He Gaosheng said.

This is why He Gaosheng asked his secretary to find him.

He wanted to find out why his son was chosen by the murderer.

The murderer is already dead, there is no way to find out the truth.

Although the police are still investigating, it is unknown when they can reach a conclusion. A father facing the sudden death of his only son and the complete collapse of his wife needs a conclusion.

Originally, no one except the police could give him such a conclusion, but Lin Xiaosu's performance at the wedding banquet was so miraculous that he wanted to ask Lin Xiaosu to investigate carefully. Was his son's death an accident or was there another hidden reason...

Lin Xiaosu closed her eyes gently and said, "Mayor He, in your mind, what kind of person is your son?"

He Gaosheng exhaled softly, "Every child is the fruit of their parents' greatest efforts throughout their lives. Of course, I also hope that my son can follow the path I designed. Every step he takes is in line with my wishes, from elementary school to junior high school, from high school to university... To be honest, I have kept all his award certificates! I just took a look at them."

Lin Xiaosu asked: "Can I take a look at it too?"

"of course can!"

Lin Xiaosu entered the study.

There are countless award certificates on the huge desk in the study.

Three good students, outstanding class leaders, work-study awards, social activity awards, debate competition awards, invention awards...

The time span is more than twenty years.

Some of the paper has turned yellow.

There are many photos hanging on the walls of the study, and He Bin is in almost every photo.

Looking at these photos, from childhood to adulthood, from a young boy to a young man full of youth, from China to abroad...

It's like watching this person grow step by step...

There was warmth in He Gaosheng's eyes...

"Mayor He, it seems that you have a clear answer to my question just now. It's very warm and satisfying, right?"

"What can I say about He Bin? From elementary school to college, I was proud of him. Although his father was an official, he didn't have the arrogance of a second-generation official. You wouldn't believe it, but when he was in college, he only had 1,000 yuan a month for living expenses."

"You only talked about going to college!" Lin Xiaosu said, "There is still a journey after going to college."

He Gaosheng sighed softly, "If there was ever a dispute between us father and son, it was probably during this trip... He was determined to study abroad. The cost of studying abroad is actually not affordable for the working class, and I can't afford it either! However, he was determined to go abroad and claimed that I didn't have to pay for the tuition. I couldn't persuade him, so I had to agree. After going abroad, he fulfilled his promise and completed four years of study by working part-time. So, if you ask me what kind of person this child is in my mind, I can answer you that he is a child who has some minor flaws, but overall, he is a pretty good child."

Lin Xiaosu took a few steps forward slowly: "Mayor He, if you were just an ordinary father, I would rather keep some of my words to myself, but you are not. In addition to being a father, you are also the mayor of a sub-provincial metropolis. If you don't know some secrets, there will be endless troubles. So, I'm sorry, I may shatter your fantasy."

He Gaosheng's heart skipped a beat... (End of this chapter)
