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

"how do you know……"

Huang Xi was about to ask a question, but before he could finish speaking, his heart trembled.

Then I recall Cao Jianjun's previous question: If the criminal is a relative, will they still stand on the side of the law?

Even if a journalist is slow to react to events, they can still catch some clues.

"What do you mean?"

Huang Xi slowly sat up straight, his tone becoming heavy.

"You, Reporter Huang, haven't you always liked to uphold justice for society? Haven't you always liked to uncover social injustices?"

Cao Jianjun still used the tactic of provocation, first beating around the bush for a while before getting straight to the point.

“As I told you before, the Sun Xing who was arrested is Gao He from fourteen years ago, and also the illegitimate son of the chairman of Changteng Capital.”

"But now, there's one more thing I haven't told you."

"Sun Xing, who is Gao He's biological mother, do you know who she is?"

As Cao Jianjun pressed closer, Huang Xi's heart was in her throat, but she subconsciously felt that she was overthinking things.

"Lin Hao's father, Lin Han, was murdered. Besides Gao He being the murderer, there was also an accomplice within the police force."

At this point, Cao Jianjun deliberately paused: "This person is your aunt, He Yun."

"You are talking nonsense."

Almost instinctively, Huang Xi exclaimed, "You, surnamed Cao, I don't know you. Don't bother me again, or I'll file a complaint..."

"What's wrong, Mr. Huang? This hasn't done anything to you, and you're already afraid to face it?"

Unexpectedly, Cao Jianjun started mocking her before she could finish speaking.

"Officer Cao, was it all for this day that you saw me at the Phoenix Nightclub last time?"

Although Huang Xi is simple-minded, she is not naive or innocent.

There were some issues she hadn't realized before, but now she seemed to have a sudden understanding.

"You can say that."

Cao Jianjun didn't mince words and confronted him directly: "You're a reporter, and I'm a policeman from out of town, but I know the ins and outs of all the dark events at Green Vine."

"So I want to find the right people, the right fulcrum, to leverage the entire underground world of Green Vine."

"Just now, my parents-in-law went missing. It's very likely that they were kidnapped by Gao Mingyuan and his gang."

"I've even gambled with my own family, do you think I'd be afraid of you reporting me, Reporter Huang?"

“You may think I’m using you, but even if I am, I’m doing it for the people of Green Vine, for the innocent victims buried underground, to seek justice.”

Huang Xi fell silent.

After graduating with a degree in journalism, she has always dreamed of becoming an embodiment of justice throughout her career.

Moreover, they have been working hard towards this goal.

But now, they are completely silent after being confronted by Cao Jianjun.

But it is also true that He Yun is her aunt.

Even now, Huang Xi lives with He Yun. The two get along like mother and daughter, or sisters, and their relationship is already very close.

“~Reporter Huang, Sun Xing is currently being held in custody by the special task force.”

Just as things were silent, Cao Jianjun's voice came again.

“If you don’t believe me, or if you want evidence, you can come to me with He Yun’s hair.”

“We can use DNA testing to determine whether He Yun and Sun Xing are related by blood.”

"My phone will stay on, I'll wait for your message..."

As soon as I finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.

But Huang Xi's phone remained pressed against his ear, as if frozen in place.

This devastating news left her completely unable to cope for a while.

In his mind, he recalled the little things he had done with his aunt He Yun, and the times He Yun was enforcing the law.

When facing the media and the public, he displayed an attitude of righteous indignation and impartiality.

The contrast between this and everything Cao Jianjun is saying now is enormous.

Suddenly.

Huang Xi lay limply on the bed, feeling like a deflated balloon, tears welling up in her eyes.

She didn't know Cao Jianjun, but she knew that he would never approach her for no reason without clues or evidence.

After the phone screen went out, she turned it back on.

Turn it off again, then turn it on again.

And so it went, over and over again...

And so, Huang Xi curled up in the air-conditioned blanket, watching helplessly as time passed by, second by second.

She tried to fall asleep, but as soon as she closed her eyes, the image of her aunt He Yun being handcuffed and sitting in prison inexplicably appeared in her mind.

at once.

A chill ran down Huang Xi's spine, and he sat up abruptly.

An hour and a half has passed since I hung up the phone.

With it approaching one in the morning, Huang Xi roused herself, composed herself, and decided to give it a try.

Upon realizing this, Huang Xi immediately got up and went to the bathroom.

I found some stray hairs on my aunt's comb, and with one hand I took them back to the bedroom.

Then, put it in a sealed bag and stuff it into your bag.

She took off her pajamas, changed into casual clothes, left the bedroom, and tiptoed out of the house.

On the road.

The night was pitch black, but the streetlights on the highway were bright.

Two black SUVs sped along, one after the other, heading towards the direction of the green vines.

inside the car.

Cao Jianjun hung up the phone with Huang Xi, his heart still pounding with anxiety.

He wasn't sure, but he hoped this method would be a breakthrough.

"Officer Cao."

He Yong, the team leader sitting in front, turned around and said with a wry smile, "Will this work? He Yun is Huang Xi's aunt after all, and as far as I know, they have a very deep relationship."

"do not know."

Cao Jianjun shook his head uncertainly: "Let's try anything, even if it's a dead end. We don't have a suitable reason to extract He Yun's DNA."

He Yong nodded; there was indeed no other way.

They were part of a special task force, and He Yun was the powerful second-in-command of the Lvteng Municipal Public Security Bureau. Without a legitimate reason, they couldn't possibly conduct a DNA test.

As the night deepened, everyone in the car grew tired.

Even Li Dawei and Zhao Jiwei, those two lads, were leaning against their seats, dozing off.

Lvteng is a mountain town. As night falls, the air grows cooler. Opening the car window, a gust of cold wind blows in, making many people in the car perk up.

Cao Jianjun was not sleepy.

He kept praying in his mind that his damned mother-in-law wouldn't die, not for her sake, but for his wife Huihui's.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye. The cars exited the highway one after the other and entered the Lvteng toll station.

The trees that once lined both sides of the road are now replaced by towering buildings.

"Reaching soon."

He Yong, sitting in the passenger seat, checked the time: "Officer Cao, are you planning to take a nap, or are you going to work with us to solve the case?"

"Solved the case?"

Cao Jianjun was taken aback: "Team Leader He, your trip to Jinan and back took a whole day. Doesn't that waste time? And why are you going out to solve cases in the middle of the night?"

"to be honest."

Through their interactions along the way, He Yong had gained a basic understanding of Cao Jianjun.

He scratched his nose a little embarrassedly and said with an awkward smile, "I went to Jinan just to visit your institute and find out about your situation."

"clear."

Cao Jianjun understood.

To put it bluntly, the task force still wanted to conduct a thorough investigation into me in order to gradually eliminate any suspicions about me.
