Street Hustler and His Policewoman Wife

Chapter 484: Chapter 484: He’s Waiting for Twelve Hours Later!

Upon seeing Chen Xiao’s sincere and helpless expression.

Gao Bo was also bewildered.

He wished he could release Chen Xiao immediately.

Otherwise, whether at work or in life, he’ll be driven mad by the phone calls.

Of course, these impacts are minor.

As the director of Lanshan County, he is somewhat considered a leader in the county.

Chen Xiao made Lanshan County better and provided many unemployed people with jobs.

This is something he is happy to see.

So he hoped Chen Xiao could be released soon, otherwise, public opinion outside would worsen with each passing day.

As for Chen Xiao’s relationship with the case, Gao Bo always believed that someone was behind it.

Seeing that Chen Xiao was still deep in thought, Gao Bo reluctantly got up:

"Okay then, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’m sorry, but I can’t share the information you want."

"I understand, everything will be done by the book."

Chen Xiao knew exactly what he needed to do next.

So for the moment, he wasn’t anxious to calm Gao Bo’s emotions.

Because he also needed to wait, to wait for the other party to reveal their true intentions.

However, not long after Gao Bo left the interrogation room, a group of people walked into the criminal police team.

Leading the group were Lin Xi and Zhang Xian.

Behind Lin Xi were the Xiaoji Knife Man, Luo Dali, and Ye Xiu, along with Xie Wensheng, and even the recently acquainted Black Cat and Wu Liuxian came over.

Gao Bo happened to meet them.

When he heard Lin Xi call him, his face lit up with joy.

He wasn’t afraid of how many people Lin Xi brought along.

Even if they brought leaders, he would only find it difficult to handle.

After all, whether it was Lin Xi or the leaders, at least they were reasonable!

"Lin Xi, you finally came!"

"Director Gao, what’s the situation now?" Lin Xi quickly asked.

The reason why Gao Bo was happy about Lin Xi’s arrival was that he hoped she would investigate Chen Xiao’s case.

Of course, on the surface, she had to avoid suspicion without investigation rights, but what the police obtained, Lin Xi could investigate through her own efforts, couldn’t she?

"You all calm down, Chen Xiao is currently only suspected because of his close relationship with the deceased and their meeting last night. So, we’ll keep him for a while until the results are out."

Gao Bo spoke, not forgetting to glance behind Lin Xi and others.

Confirming that Guo Zhengchang hadn’t come, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, Guo Zhengchang is the god of wealth of Lanshan County, the Lobster Base was Chen Xiao’s plan, funded by Guo Zhengchang!

Lin Xi understood the implications from Gao Bo’s words.

But as Chen Xiao’s friends, they were a bit anxious at this time.

Especially Luo Dali, who had long forgotten his dream of becoming a great detective, suppressing his anger:

"Everyone in Dongzhou knows Chen bro he... ."

Before Luo Dali could finish, Ye Xiu glared at him.

Luo Dali clenched his jaw, and Lin Xi, as if she hadn’t heard, thanked Gao Bo:

"Thank you, Director Gao, we’ll follow the rules."

Gao Bo nodded continuously upon hearing this, then excused himself saying he had urgent matters and left.

After Gao Bo left, Zhang Xian said:

"Xiaoxi, should I give you a leave?"

Without hesitation, Lin Xi said: "Of course!"

"When Chen Yuan blocked me and my parents, it was Chen Xiao who didn’t care about anything and directly returned to Songshanping, smashing the Chen Family’s door!"

"Later in the Marquis Jinguang’s Tomb case, when Huang Zhaozhong’s leak caused the victim’s family to block our task force, it was Chen Xiao who flew to Hai City without thinking twice."

"By then he was already a celebrity, with many wealth-creating industries. Yet, he didn’t care, so this time I must clear things up for him!"

Listening to Lin Xi, Zhang Xian wasn’t surprised at all.

"For you two, I’ve come to realize that work is always second to you."

"Director Zhang, we must put ourselves in others’ shoes. I’m not afraid Chen Xiao will be tainted by this case, I fear I won’t do well enough."

After Lin Xi finished, she turned to Luo Dali:

"Dali, your and Xiaoxiu’s arrival shows your intentions to us. But you can’t help here, so it’s better if you head back."

Luo Dali shook his head like a rattle drum: "No, I won’t leave until Chen bro comes out! But don’t worry, sister-in-law, I won’t act on my own, Xiaoxiu and I will quietly wait in Lanshan County."

"As you wish, Xiaoji, Knife Man, anything back from Da?"

"Already on the plane."

"Alright, let’s find somewhere to discuss the case." Lin Xi said, turning her gaze to Black Cat.

The latter, lost in thought, was fiddling with her hair.

Noticing Lin Xi’s gaze, Black Cat smiled:

"Sister Lin Xi, do you need me to step in?"

Lin Xi sighed in relief, smiling: "If you can step in, that’d be perfect!"

"Is the deceased from Shencheng? A real estate tycoon?"

"Yes."

"Then I’ll buy a ticket to Shencheng now." Black Cat said with a carefree smile.

Lin Xi nodded and said to Xiaoji: "Xiaoji, accompany Black Cat to Shencheng. Once there, contact Guo Qing. Remember, reach out to Guo Qing and have him ensure your safety first."

Xiaoji earnestly replied: "Don’t worry, sister-in-law, we’ll do exactly as you say."

"Alright, the sooner the better, you guys head out!"

"Okay, sister-in-law, rest easy, Chen bro is someone capable, he must have a clear mind while cooperating."

Lin Xi smiled gently: "Yes, keep safe out there. If you can find something, that’s great, but don’t take risks. Safety first!"

Hearing this, Xiaoji chuckled: "Spoken just like Chen bro, alright... Black Cat, let’s go."

"Goodbye, Sister Lin Xi!"

Black Cat waved and left with Xiaoji.

After they left, Lin Xi turned to Zhang Xian, saying: "Director Zhang, let’s move somewhere else to talk."

"How about we head to Chen Xiao’s place?"

"Sure."

Without dragging feet, they left the criminal police team for Songshanping.

Upon arrival, Mr. and Mrs. Chen, seeing Lin Xi back, seemed to find a source of support.

"Xiaoxi, did you go to the county? We wanted to go too, but Chen Xiao told us to wait at home. We dare not act on our own in such matters!"

"Don’t worry, Mom and Dad, Chen Xiao and I will handle it." Lin Xi reassured them, then found an excuse: "Would you mind brewing some tea, Mom and Dad? I need to talk with Director Zhang."

After Mr. and Mrs. Chen left, Lin Xi kept an eye on the time.

Zhang Xian approached her, asking: "What do you think Chen Xiao is waiting for?"

Lin Xi didn’t ponder, her eyes wandering but her tone was firm: "He’s waiting, waiting for twelve hours to pass! By then, everything should be clear!"
