Chapter 145 Mid-Autumn Festival
The Mid-Autumn Festival was originally a day for family reunion. This day of the year makes people feel especially homesick, but for Dijing, things happened one after another during this time, even if many people's attention was on Xiao Lin In the case of my family, I have been relaxed a lot on this day, and nothing is more important than the reunion of my family.
The Xiao family, the atmosphere today is indeed different from previous years. In the past, Xiao Lin was not necessarily able to come back to celebrate the festival with Xiao Xiao and his daughter because of work, but this year, he was unable to come back.
Zhao Jiao specifically asked the people in the supervision agency if they could release Xiao Lin and let him accompany his family to finish the meal and then go back, but was rejected. It has caused a bad influence, so Xiao Lin is not eligible to be released on bail.
Even Zhao Jiao's company has been settled by the supervisory authority, all accounts have been frozen, and all ongoing projects have been stopped. It is necessary to find out the source of all accounts.
The silver RV was on the way back to Xiao's house. Zhao Jiao sat on the back seat with a face full of tiredness. She had been spinning for so long for a week. It wasn't that she didn't want to rest, she couldn't sleep , Xiao Lin's face appeared in front of his eyes as soon as he closed his eyes. Even if he fell asleep, he had nightmares, so he simply stopped sleeping.
The car stopped in front of a cake shop. The secretary got out of the car and entered the shop to get a gift box. There were a few words written on the gift box, which was limited to Mid-Autumn Festival.
This is Xiao Xiao's favorite food, and Zhao Jiao can't think of any way to comfort Xiao Xiao at this moment.
"How is the investigation of the old couple?" Zhao Jiao asked while pinching her eyebrows.
The secretary put the gift box aside, "The foundation is very clean. Like ordinary people, neither of them has an account in the bank, so they have not checked the inflow of funds."
Even if an old man of this age has a passbook, he still has a pension, which is a thousand dollars a month. As for other accounts, there is absolutely nothing.
"The people who were watching over there also said that they lived very well in the countryside, and they never saw anyone looking for them."
Zhao Jiao looked down at the things in her hands, "Let them quietly go in tonight and have a look. Since it's not money transferred to the account, then it must be directly given in cash."
As long as they can find the money given by the other party in their house, many things will be clear without explanation.
"Mr. Zhao, aren't you afraid that those people will transfer people away?"
At present, the testimony of the old couple is the most pros and cons for Xiao Lin, so if the other party knows that they have been eyeing this couple, I am afraid they will really take people away.
The police have been looking for them two or three times. After making sure that they will not embarrass the old couple again, they will never call them again, so even if they disappear, the police will not notice them for a while.
"They won't startle the snake. As long as the other side bites and doesn't let go, people are the same everywhere." Zhao Jiao opened her mouth and said.
The trick of extorting confessions by torture is not practiced these days, and the witnesses are not suspects. After asking twice, they will not look for them again.
"I see, I'll let them in tonight and look for it."
As long as people can get both stolen goods, it is impossible for the couple to have a large amount of cash at home in such an income situation. As long as they find out the benefits given by those people, they will naturally be able to reverse the pledge.
The car quickly stopped at the entrance of Xiao's house. There were thousands of lights in the neighborhood opposite, and every window was lit. Zhao Jiao stood at the door and seemed to be able to see the happy family in the window.
"Then let's go back first." The secretary looked at her.
Zhao Jiao nodded, "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival."
The secretary counted, "You too, Mr. Xiao will come back safely soon, don't worry too much."
Zhao Jiao carried the box into the living room. The secretary and the driver turned around and headed back to the city center. The two were also very worried. Zhao Jiao was shrewd and capable for so many years, and she was able to make the company so big because of her ability.
Mr. Xiao is a humble person. They have followed Mr. Zhao for so many years. Mr. Zhao is also very kind to them. People are always gracious. They are naturally still sincerely worried for Zhao Jiao.
This Miss Xiao is usually a bit willful and proud of her self-esteem, but this time, she did help them by mistake. This time something happened to the Xiao family, and Miss Xiao also grew up a lot.
I hope it will be alright.
Xiao Xiao was sitting in the living room. She had already put all the servants back. The Mid-Autumn Festival was all about reunion, and there were already cooked meals on the table. At this time in previous years, she and her mother would wait in the living room. Wait for Xiao Lin to come back.
Although sometimes it may not be possible to wait, but the two have at least one thought, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival is indeed very depressing.
"Wait for me." Zhao Jiao stood at the door and raised the box in her hand, "I bought you your favorite cake and moon cakes. We'll have dinner together later."
Tonight, I haven't seen the moon yet, and I don't know if the sky is covered by clouds or smog. In short, it makes people feel very heavy.
"mom"
"Come here to eat first, I'm hungry." Zhao Jiao interrupted Xiao Xiao.
She looked at the tired look on her mother's face, took the moon cake in her hand and walked to the dining table. Zhao Jiao hadn't come back to eat for the past few days, Xiao Xiao also knew that she was tired.
"Have some soup, you are really tired these two days." Xiao Xiao put the chicken soup cooked by the servant in front of her.
"I really haven't eaten well in the past two days, and now I know I'm hungry when I smell it."
Xiao Xiao looked at Zhao Jiao and knew that her mother was troubled at the moment, so she didn't have the heart to ask anything.
Zhao Jiao took a sip of the soup, stretched out her hand to serve the rice, and looked at Xiao Xiao who didn't move at all, "Why don't you eat it?"
"I can not eat."
Zhao Jiao stopped, followed by opening her mouth, "Look at this, isn't it the same as in previous years, isn't it a festival that I spend with you every year, today is no different."
"But, Dad was at work in previous years." Xiao Xiao looked down.
It is different from this year.
"It's okay, Xiaoxiao, don't worry, your father will be fine. When he comes out, our family will travel abroad for a year or two, how about that?" Zhao Jiao comforted.
She nodded, she couldn't let Zhao Jiao take into account her emotions when she was busy outside for so long.
"I know mom, don't worry, I'm waiting for dad to come out."
At that time, Xiao Lin may be able to really let go of these troubles in the imperial capital and travel the world with Zhao Jiao, no longer need to think about the same anxiety as now.
"Eat more, you are tired these two days, but I would like to know, how did you know where the old couple lived?" Zhao Jiao looked at her and asked.
When Xiao Xiao called her, what he said was unclear, but he just told her that Li Wei's parents had moved out. At that time, she was busy with the company's affairs, so she didn't come and ask clearly.
"I followed Su Yun."
"Su Yun?"
Second Miss Su Family, the reporter who reported on Xiao Lin's case.
"Well, I met her at the gate of Tejing Daily that day. I went with her because I was curious that she was still injured and not resting in the hospital."
Xiao Xiao described the situation that day to Zhao Jiao in detail. Zhao Jiao listened to her story, frowning slowly, followed by and loosened.
This Su Yun is the one who released Xiao Lin's case. There is no doubt about that. After all, the recorded interview document belongs to Su Yun, but at this moment, Su Yun has found Li Wei's parents by himself, and bluntly said that they are The thing that was bought.
Su Yun, do you know something?
"It seems that this second Miss Su family knows a lot of things." Zhao Jiao said while moving her chopsticks.
"I also asked her why she did this, but she said she was making up for her fault."
Zhao Jiao stopped completely, Su Yun really knew something, it seemed that she needed to meet this Miss Su Yun.
"Let's eat quickly, let's go to the balcony to see if there is a moon." Zhao Jiao tapped the tableware and chopsticks in front of her.
Xiao Xiao nodded, even if she didn't want to eat, she would still be with her mother. She couldn't watch Zhao Jiao be so busy during this period of time, and finally her body collapsed, at least don't let Zhao Jiao worry about herself anymore.
Tonight, the weather is really bad. It has been dark until now, and the moon has not been seen. The sky is dark, as if something is covering it. It seems that the moon will not come out.
Zhao Jiao and Xiao Xiao were sitting on the balcony on the second floor, watching her eat the cake she brought back. She reached out and took a piece of moon cake. Xiao Lin likes to eat Wuren moon cake. When I come back, I will send the moon cakes to the police station.
It seems that his share this year can only be kept until he comes back.
"Mom, go to rest first, you have been working for several days, don't you want to go to the company tomorrow morning?" Xiao Xiao looked at her and said.
Zhao Jiao looked at her and nodded, stretched out her hand and put the moon cake in front of her, "You always have to eat a moon cake during the Mid-Autumn Festival. You ate too much cake just now, so move your body and then go to sleep."
"Well, don't worry."
Zhao Jiao entered the room and went to the door. The spirit and energy she had just pretended to have declined, leaned against the door panel and lowered her head. scene.
She walked to the dresser, found a few bags out of nowhere, and took out all the expensive jewelry in the dresser and put them in.
Even if she doesn't want to make a plan for the last step, she has to do it, not only her and Xiao Lin, but also Xiao Xiao. If Xiao Lin really falls this time, she must make a plan for her daughter, otherwise, Xiao Xiao's road in the future will be very difficult.
An old jewelry box fell out, she opened it, a silver ring lay quietly inside, and she stroked it with her fingertips. It was given to her by Xiao Lin when she and Xiao Lin got married.
Silver was quite valuable at that time, but after all these years, it was only a few hundred yuan, which really wouldn’t make people look at it.
She took off the diamond ring from her hand, and finally put the ring on her hand.
"It'll be fine" she comforted herself.
This Mid-Autumn Festival is also unhappy, and there is the Su family. In previous years, the Su family's Mid-Autumn Festival was when everyone from the family came together. Of course, except for the two years when Su Yun went to the war zone, although the family members were different Thoughtful, but also able to sit together to have a meal together and enjoy the moon together.
But this year, Su Ke went to Quan's house, Su Yun moved out by himself, and even had a quarrel with Su Pingbang, the atmosphere between the two could be described as tense.
There are only two people, Su Ye and Su Pingbang. The Mid-Autumn Festival party is playing on TV. Stars from all walks of life stand on the stage and sing loudly, but they don't know that there is no moon in Beijing tonight.
Su Ye peeled a few nuts and handed them to Su Pingbang who was watching TV, "Dad, or let the second sister come back."
"What do you do when you come back, fight against me every day, it's the same if you don't come back." Su Pingbang opened his mouth and said.
"But it's really pitiful for her to be out alone this Mid-Autumn Festival, and the eldest sister is not here. It's really lonely at home with you and me. Besides, you can't always be so tense with the second sister. Ah." Su Ye didn't know if he meant it or not.
Su Pingbang ignored her and watched the news to herself. Aunt An, who was busy in the kitchen, looked back at the father and daughter who were watching TV in the living room, and sighed in a low voice.
Mr. , what's the point of this, what's the benefit of having such a quarrel with your daughter?
"Aunt An, squeeze a glass of juice for me!" Su Ye raised her head and shouted.
"okay."
Su Pingbang went upstairs to answer the phone, he listened to what the person on the other end said slowly, and sighed.
"Brother Su, if Su Yun continues to investigate like this, I'm afraid there will be a lot of trouble. I can't explain it so well here." Qing Jianye on the other end opened his mouth.
Su Yun had already found out about Li Wei's parents, and also knew that they were bribed. More importantly, Xiao Lin's daughter was also there with her, and Xiao Xiao knew it too. It is a sure thing, and there will be more mistakes.
"I know, sorry, my daughter is really stubborn." Su Pingbang said in a low voice.
Qing Jianye smiled, "If you don't mind, I want to temporarily grieve Ling Ai for a while. She is active too often, which is not a good thing."
"I understand, she should also have some lessons." Su Pingbang expressed understanding.
Qing Jianye nodded. This Su Pingbang is not a person who doesn't know the current affairs. He can see the current situation clearly, and he must be ruthless, otherwise his previous achievements will be lost. He chose to cooperate with Su Pingbang back then because this person is enough Ruthless, not indecisive.
"I can't wait anymore. If you can't get what Xiao Lin has in his hands, you don't have to keep him. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible," said Qing Jianye on the other side.
Even a Su Yun can find out about this matter. It is hard to guarantee that others will not find out. Xiao Lin is usually an upright person, but this is not a matter of being an official. If he does not have his own party, something will happen. No one can help, and this is not an example.
"I know, I will tell the people over there that when necessary, there is no need to wait any longer."
"Xiao Lin was able to find out about Mingxiang Tea Garden. It is estimated that he has been secretly watching us for a long time these years. The information he has accumulated is also a large amount. Since this is the case, he must not be released." The person on the other end ordered. road.
Su Pingbang nodded, he also meant it.
"Will those materials be in Zhao Jiao's hands?"
"It won't be there, he, that person, won't be willing to involve his family in these things."
So Xiao Lin will keep these materials by himself.
"I understand."
"Then hang up first."
Su Pingbang looked at the darkened mobile phone, the road has come to this point, Su Yun is still obsessed, if they can find out with her strength, they don't have to mess around for so many years.
Su Yun lived in a hotel apartment, but it was quite comfortable. In the morning, Su Ye brought her some moon cakes, and Su Ke also called her and said that she was going to Quan's house for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In the two years she was in the war zone, she had no idea of day and night. She was wandering in the ravines and scorched earth all year round. She was used to seeing the scenes of life and death, so naturally she didn't pay much attention to these.
Especially after Xiao Lin happened, even if Su Ke didn't go to Quan's house today, even if Su Pingbang came, she would never go back to Su's house.
However, after listening to the fireworks being set off outside, Su Yun still put on her coat and went out. All day long until now, she still hasn't eaten dinner, thinking about going out to find something to eat.
Even if it was a festival, the entire Imperial Capital was still very lively. The welcoming guests standing at the entrance of the hotel were still very busy. She chose the one closest to the hotel, which was a hot pot restaurant. Su Yun looked at the lively atmosphere inside and mentioned it. Steps went in.
However, in the lobby, he met Qing Yan who also came in for dinner. He was not wearing a suit today, but instead he changed into a simple casual outfit, a camel-colored trench coat.
"It's such a coincidence, you come to eat too." Su Yun walked up to greet him.
Qingyan turned around and saw Su Yun, she was still in a plaster cast, but tonight she looked more energetic than the day she was in the hospital.
"Well, are you alone?"
"To you too?"
Qingyan nodded. After he came back from the company, he didn't go back to Qing's house for dinner. Qingyu also went to Quan's house, but the whole family ate together in the morning. I don't know why, but now he wants to go out for a walk.
"Why don't we go together." Su Yun suggested.
The girls all spoke up, and Qing Yan naturally agreed, and asked the waiter to open a box for the two of them.
In view of Su Yun's injury on his hand, he ordered a light herbal hot pot. Su Yun sat opposite Qingyan and watched him pour the tea and put it in front of him.
"thanks."
Qingyan smiled, "Why did you go out to eat alone? Don't you celebrate the festival at home?"
"What about you, why did you come out alone?"
Neither of them said a word. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Instead of staying at home, they ran out. This explains the problem.
"In fact, I haven't spent the Mid-Autumn Festival at home for a few years. I used to go to school outside, and I rarely came back with a vacation. Later, I was very busy at work, and I went to the war zone for a few years, and I got used to it. "Su Yun looked at him and said.
Qingyan moved the table in front of him to watch the waiter bring the soup pot and put it away.
"Actually everyone is the same."
has his own helplessness, Su Yun is like this, he is like this, everyone is like this.
"I heard that Quan Jingting brought your sister Qingyu back to Quan's house today?"
This is what Su Ke accidentally leaked to her on the phone. The matter between Qingyu and Quan Jingting is settled, she doesn't know if Qingyan will feel the same as her.
"Yes, so now the family is not considered a reunion."
There is always one less person, and I don’t mind how many.
"Let's eat it, the herbal food here is good, but I'm wronged to eat with me." Su Yun said with chopsticks.
"I originally had a bland taste and couldn't eat spicy food. You don't have to be so embarrassed."
Su Yun smiled, the two had only met twice, and it was a bit bizarre to sit and eat together like this.
"I won't be able to see the moon tonight, I hope people will live together forever." Su Yun bit his chopsticks and opened his mouth.
"After all, not every family is reunited, so don't worry about that." Qing Yan brushed the hot pot with his hands.
The steaming heat quickly dissipated in the room, and with the heating, the room was warm at the moment. Su Yun and Qing Yan were talking in unison, Qing Yan had a gentle temperament, and was also a gentleman. He didn't talk much. , but Su Yun is a reporter anyway, so he naturally knows what to do when he has nothing to say.
By the time the two of them went back and forth to eat, they were already familiar with each other.
"Waiter, bring us a bottle of wine!" Su Yun called out to the door.
"What kind of wine do you need?"
Su Yun looked at the man opposite, "What do you like to drink?"
"Can you drink alcohol?" Qing Yan looked at the bandage on her hand.
"Look at me, it's rare for you and me to meet once, let's have a drink, it's also the Mid-Autumn Festival." Su Yun said to the waiter, "Give us a bottle of whisky."
"Ok you wait."
Su Yun looked at the person on the opposite side through the heat of the hot pot, and it was only now that she realized that the two brothers and sisters of the Qing family were quite good-looking, but Qing Yan's face was different from Qing Yu's face that brought disaster to the country and the people. Up, always let people ignore.
Qingyan looks elegant, but he is handsome and handsome, and his whole personality is very warm, like a handsome young man. Such a man is the most attractive to women, especially his wealth is rich, he is simply the fifth king of diamonds.
The wine came up quickly, Su Yun took the wine bottle and poured it into the glass, filling it up for Qing Yan as well.
"I respect you." Su Yun pointed the wine glass at him.
Qingyan's fingertips slipped across the mouth of the cup, "There must be a reason."
"Thank you for being with me for the holiday."
Qingyan smiled and brought the cup together, and the two drank it all at once.
Su Yun poured another cup, "Second cup, thank you for visiting me in the hospital."
Qingyan touched the cup with her.
The third cup, she was holding the cup, but she couldn't say it.
Qingyan came over to clink glasses with her, "This third cup, I respect you."
Thank you for helping me see those sins clearly, and thank you for your efforts.
Let him know that there are still people, and then fight hard.
When the two finished eating, standing at the door of the restaurant, Qing Yan looked at Su Yun who was already a little confused, "I'll go get the car and take you back."
"No need, I'll just stay at the hotel across the street, just go there by myself."
"Can you go? Let me take you there."
Su Yun smiled and shook his head, "You underestimate me? I don't even care about that drink."
She was socializing with the leader when she was just working, and she abruptly raised the amount of alcohol. Even if she had two more bottles, it would still be the same.
Su Yun reached out and patted his shoulder, "Thank you, I'll go first."
Qingyan looked at the woman passing by the hotel slowly, looked at the key in her hand, and followed up.
The wind at night is always cold. Su Yun walked and closed her coat. The cold wind blew away the heat on her face. She looked up at the sky.
The moon still hasn't come out, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is no big deal.
Qingyan followed her, went to the hotel entrance, stood on the opposite street and watched for a while before the man turned and left
