She did not know if Zheng Zeyiâs companyâs important project had continued smoothly.
Joes sighed slightly, took out her phone, and dialed a very familiar number.
It was detective Wenâs phone number.
âHello? Miss Qiao, I knew it was you the moment I heard the bell. â The call was picked up quickly, and detective Wenâs chuckling voice could be heard.
After he finished speaking, Joes could not help but laugh.
After returning to city h, there were indeed many things that she needed detective Wenâs help with, so she called him more frequently.
Last time, she had asked detective Wen to help her solve a big problem. Now, she had to solve the aftermath of this big problem.
At the thought of this, Jossi cleared her throat and said,ââItâs like this, detective Wen, I have something I need you to investigate.
Maybe ... I still need your help, but Iâll pay you accordingly. I wonder if youâre interested, detective Wen?â
The atmosphere fell silent for a while.
The two of them did not speak for a while. Detective Wen was deep in thought. What could it be?
Joes was also a little worried that he would not accept it. After all, they had worked together before and had mutual trust, unlike others.
In this way, they would be more at ease if they continued to cooperate.
......
Most importantly, the task that joesse had asked him to do this time was related to the previous trouble, so it was best to let detective Wen handle it.
After a long time, detective Wen said with a smile,ââMiss Qiao, Iâm a little curious.
Let me guess, does it have something to do with the last time?â
There was a deeper meaning to his words, and after Joes heard it, the corners of her lips curled up into a smile.âAs expected of detective Wen, youâve guessed my intentions so quickly.
Thatâs right. If detective Wen feels that we can continue the discussion, Iâll tell you the truth.
The reward will definitely not be low, and it might even be more generous than the last time. What do you think, detective Wen?â
Joes increased the temptation of benefits, but the effect of this move was also obvious.
Detective Wen thought for a moment and pursed his lips. In the end, he agreed.âAlright, since thatâs the case, Iâll take it!
Miss Qiaoâs credibility is obvious to all, Iâm not worried about that. If you need me to do anything, just tell me. â
âAlright,â he said.
The curve on Joesâs lips widened, and she revealed all her intentions without hesitation.
Since he had to leave this matter to detective Wen, he had to know every detail.
After listening to the story, even detective Wen, who was used to it, couldnât help but be a little speechless.âMiss Qiao, youâre far-sighted,â
âHow is this a far-reaching plan? Iâm just worried that if the matter canât be resolved, it will affect the future.
Since detective Wen has agreed, Iâll leave this matter to you. Keep in touch by phone. â Joesse said.
âDonât worry,â detective Wen replied without hesitation.âMiss Qiao, you just have to trust me.â
âThatâs good. â
Joes chuckled as she heaved a sigh of relief, as if a huge rock had finally been lifted off her shoulders.
As long as this matter was resolved, it would indeed sweep away a lot of trouble.
After hanging up the phone, she looked up at the stars in the night sky, her eyes cold.
She was no longer the joesse of the past and could now use other things to accomplish what she wanted.
For example, getting rid of some people.
Of course, it wasnât to kill anyone. Joes wouldnât do such a thing either. Instead, she would try to break it down in other ways.
â¦â¦â¦
At the same time, the Qiao family was not having a good time in city H.
They were still living in that old and shabby house, and the remaining money was not enough to support them to continue living in city H.
Qiao Lei didnât dare to gamble anymore, but he didnât want to find a job either. He could only hang out in various bars or gambling venues.
From time to time, he would lose some money and get beaten up, and in order to clean up his mess, Liu Yun and Qiao Feng could only find something to do.
Even Zhao Hai âerâs Secret stash of money was found to pay off Qiao Leiâs debt.
That afternoon, Qiao Lei was still sitting on the old sofa at home playing with his mobile phone when someone suddenly knocked on the door.
âBang Bang!â
The sound was extremely loud, and the force was so strong that it seemed as if the door was going to be smashed.
Qiao Lei looked at the door in frustration. The game on his phone was at a disadvantage and would be lost soon.
âWho is it!â
He shouted, but no one outside the door paid him any attention. They continued to knock on the door.
Qiao Feng had gone to the construction site to move bricks to earn money. He couldnât possibly come back at this time, right?
âIâm so angry, what kind of people are they ...â
Qiao Lei scratched his head and could only resign himself to his fate. He threw his phone aside and opened the door. Liu Yun, who was cooking in the kitchen, also heard the knock.
âLei, is your father back?â she asked.
Qiao Lei ignored Liu Yun and opened the door. However, as soon as he opened the door, a hand grabbed his collar and lifted him up.
âAh!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Qiao Lei let out a blood-curdling scream as his feet left the ground. His collar was stuck to his neck, and he could only feel waves of pain.
At this moment, he finally saw who was standing in front of him.
The entrance was almost surrounded by more than a dozen burly men, all wearing sleeveless shirts, and one could vaguely see the muscles hidden in them.
Most of them even had tattoos on their arms. It was a shocking sight, and one could tell at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
Qiao Lei was shocked. He also remembered who these people were.
Wanwan was his creditor!
Ever since he owed a debt, these people had given him a deadline. If he didnât pay up within the time limit, they would come to Qiao Lei.
But they didnât expect that they were so much ahead of time!
âIf you donât return the money, Iâll cut off your finger as compensation!â
The big manâs harsh words were still deeply imprinted in his mind. Qiao Leiâs face turned pale and he was so scared that he didnât dare to say anything.
âQiao Lei, you still remember us, right?â
The one who was standing in front and holding his collar sneered and raised his eyebrows. The scar on his face was also more obvious to Qiao Lei.
Qiao Leiâs heart was about to jump to his throat, and he said with difficulty,ââBig brother, I ... I ... Remember.â
The huge commotion in the living room attracted the attention of Liu Yun, who was cooking in the kitchen. Her eyelids twitched, and she immediately removed her apron.
After removing her apron, she quickly ran to the living room and said,ââLei, whatâs your name? Whatâs happening?â
Zhao Hai âer, who was in the room, noticed it as well, but she realized that something was wrong.
Crack ... Crack ...
Zhao Hai âer carefully opened the door and looked outside.
