Detective: I, Cao Jianjun, started by arresting my brother-in-law.

Almost simultaneously, the bedroom door was flung open, and Zhou Hui stood there stiffly, pouting, looking at Cao Jianjun with a wronged expression.

"Were you scared, honey?"

Where is he...?

Zhou Hui hid in the bedroom and pointed to the spot where Lao Ning had just appeared.

Cao Jianjun ripped the blood off his body, then turned and pointed at Lao Ning's corpse: "Dead."

"..."

Zhou Hui was stunned for a moment: "You killed him?"

"suicide."

Cao Jianjun winked and said, "He felt bad for scaring you, so he committed suicide."

The task force obtained the information from Li Dawei.

Since Zhou Hui had no direct way to contact the task force, she first contacted Director Wang of Balihe Police Station, and then Li Dawei.

After much confusion and bewilderment, team leader He Yong, upon learning of the situation, immediately led his team and rushed over.

When they arrived at the Hilton Hotel, Cao Jianjun was putting his wife to sleep.

"The person is dead..."

Cao Jianjun opened the door and led He Yong and a group of members from the special task force in. He pointed to Lao Ning's body with a wry smile.

"Team Leader He, I killed him in self-defense."

"Is everything okay?"

He Yong, both amused and exasperated, punched Cao Jianjun: "Looks like you really can't be without someone by your side from now on."

"Not really."

Cao Jianjun shook his head and gestured for everyone to sit down: "Team Leader He, you probably don't know this person, but I have to introduce him to you properly."

"Old Ning, Gao Mingyuan has been keeping assassins for who knows when..."

"Let me sort it out: Mai Zili's wife is Xue Mei, and Xu Yingzi's younger brother is Xu Xiaoshan."

As he spoke, Cao Jianjun paused for a moment, then pointed at Lao Ning and said, "There is another important person, Li Chengyang's master Lin Han, who was knocked unconscious and pushed into the river by him back then."

"These are just the ones I know. I don't know how many other nameless and faceless people he killed."

Previously.

The members of the task force, including Li Dawei and Zhao Jiwei, had both heard of Lao Ning, but this was the first time they had met him.

"The blood debt is immense."

He Yong took a deep breath and said.

"Blame me."

Cao Jianjun took a sip of water and said, "That night I was so busy digging up Mai Zili's body that I heard about my parents-in-law's deaths as soon as it was light, and I forgot about Lao Ning, such an important person."

"Gao Mingyuan hasn't said a word, is he just waiting for you to die?"

He Yong suddenly realized something: "They didn't get rid of you from your parents-in-law, so now they've put all their eggs in one basket with Lao Ning."

"Exactly what I thought."

Cao Jianjun nodded and said, "I just recalled that when you arrested Gao Mingyuan, you didn't see Lao Ning in his villa."

“This is not normal. In the past, Lao Ning was almost always by Gao Mingyuan’s side, and he would only leave when he had to do something.”

"So that night, Gao Mingyuan must have known that my parents-in-law were dead, so he couldn't find a better way and sent Lao Ning to kill me."

"But the next day, I went straight back to Jinan, and Lao Ning didn't get a chance."

"I just got back to Green Vine today, that's why Old Ning made a move."

He Yong nodded slightly. This was the most perfect explanation and the most plausible one.

“However, Team Leader He, there’s something you’ve overlooked…”

Cao Jianjun suddenly thought of something, narrowed his eyes and asked, "How did Gao Mingyuan know about Lao Ning?"

As soon as he said it, He Yong's eyes lit up.

There is indeed a bug here.

Logically speaking, Gao Mingyuan, who was in the detention center, would have no way of knowing whether Lao Ning killed Cao Jianjun outside.

If he knew, someone would naturally have told him.

"This was indeed something I overlooked."

He Yong nodded with a wry smile: "We thought Gao Mingyuan was just being stubborn, and we thought the case was over. But now it seems... Gao Mingyuan's henchmen are more complicated than we thought."

"Big fish are easy to catch, but small shrimp can hide too well."

After Cao Jianjun finished speaking, he stood up, glanced at the time on his wristwatch, and said, "Alright, Team Leader He, this is the crime scene, I'll leave it to you."

"Our task force will cover the cost of changing your room."

"How could I dare?"

Cao Jianjun shook his head jokingly: "I still prefer the way the task force is stingy. Li Chengyang has to pay for the hotel."

He Yong smiled.

Finally, several more members of the special task force were assigned to Cao Jianjun as bodyguards to ensure the personal safety of Zhou Hui and her sister.

This room is definitely no longer habitable.

The Hilton Hotel had a lot of complaints about the murder, but they couldn't vent their anger because Cao Jianjun had the provincial department's special task force behind him.

Most importantly, how did the assassin Lao Ning disguise himself and enter the hotel?

And they even have access cards for the suite?

This series of problems left Hilton even more speechless, and they obediently arranged for Cao Jianjun to stay in another suite, even waiving the fees.

That's much more comfortable.

Cao Jianjun felt that he had earned his place in a luxury hotel suite through his own merit and that it had nothing to do with Li Chengyang.

Therefore, Li Chengyang owed him another favor.

The Zhou sisters were indeed frightened by what they had just witnessed.

Even after being moved to another room, Zhou Hui kept insisting on changing hotels, feeling uneasy about the place.

They only felt relieved when Cao Jianjun showed them the members of the task force outside the door.

Didn't sleep all night.

After tossing and turning for most of the day, it was almost 10 a.m. before the two sisters finally fell into a peaceful sleep in their bedroom.

Cao Jianjun was no longer sleepy.

Feeling incredibly bored, I leaned against the hotel's floor-to-ceiling window, admiring the scenery outside, and aimlessly scrolling through my phone.

"Hello! Officer Cao..."

My phone chimed with a message. I opened WeChat and saw it was from the beautiful reporter Huang Xi.

"hello!"

Cao Jianjun was bored anyway, so he simply replied.

I just heard about what happened to you. I don't know how to comfort you. Please accept my condolences.

Huang Xi typed a string of words in WeChat, and added a "stroking" emoji at the end.

"It's okay, I'm fine."

"Would it be convenient for us to meet up?"

Huang Xi sent another message: "I'm leaving this city. I'd like to talk to you before I go, is that okay?"

"No problem, give me an address."

"Ok!"

The two quickly finalized the time and address.

Cao Jianjun did not refuse Huang Xi for a simple reason: Huang Xi played a crucial role in He Yun's arrest.

Besides, the two of them had nothing to hide, and Cao Jianjun couldn't find a reason to avoid them. The Zhou sisters were also being protected by the special task force, so he could leave with a clear conscience.

After changing into his police uniform and putting on his peaked cap, Cao Jianjun greeted the two policemen at the door and went downstairs.

After driving for twenty minutes toward the address provided by Huang Xi, I parked the car on the side of the road.

As soon as he got out of the car, Cao Jianjun saw a straw mat in the distance.

With her long hair cascading over her shoulders, wearing purple sunglasses, a beige jumpsuit, and high heels, Huang Xi waved to Cao Jianjun.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

The meeting place was a coffee shop. After we sat down, we ordered our coffee.
