Chapter 175 Oh No, I Have Offended More than a Hundred Million People

Hou Wendong worked hard to search for memory fragments, trying to piece together a complete picture as much as possible, but he desperately found that he saw and heard too few scenes at that time, and almost no useful information was captured.

"Damn!!!" Hou Wendong's emotions were almost out of control. His fists were clenched and veins were prominent on his temples.

The physical pain forced him to calm down. He changed his mind and began to examine himself, "Okay, I have to be rational. Who have I offended recently? Who would be so bold as to kidnap me?"

He began to review recent events one by one, as if combing through a complicated web:

"Yesterday, I exposed Congressman Li's scandal; the day before yesterday, I bribed a researcher from Shengguang Pharmaceutical; not long ago, I worked for Congressman Wang, and as a result, I had a conflict with the law firm..."

Hou Wendong's thoughts shuttled back and forth on the timeline, and he continued to recall: "Four days ago, I..."

"Five days ago..."

"..."

"Ten days ago, I arranged for a thief to sneak into Ma Bin's office and try to find the account books left by Zheng Si. Although he found nothing, Ma Bin probably didn't notice this little move of mine..."

"Before that, I also sent people to the patrol room to investigate the details of the disappearance of Zheng Si's son Zheng Hang..."

"Moving forward, last month I used newspaper reporters to spread rumors on the Internet in an attempt to smear Governor Dong's reputation..."

In Hou Wendong's mind, a series of events were played back one by one like high-definition movie footage. His memory is extraordinary and he can recall most of the details.

As he reviewed these events, familiar or unfamiliar faces appeared one after another in his mind, like a quick slide show, switching frequently and quickly.

In this memory picture, Ma Bin's hypocritical face wearing gold-rimmed glasses is also interspersed, but this face does not appear frequently.

Generally speaking, Hou Wendong felt that Ma Bin's suspicion was not high. In his memory, Ma Bin, the new leader of the Green Wolf Gang, was far more sensible and more obedient than the previous Zheng Si.

The latter gave him the impression of a cautious and shrewd character who was unlikely to make such a hasty and crazy move.

The deeper Hou Wendong's memories went into, the more complicated his thoughts became, and a deep sense of despair gradually enveloped his heart.

Because he suddenly realized that he had created too many problems, except for a few small characters like Ma Bin, who could rule out suspicion.

But except for these few, most other important figures have sufficient motivation and courage to retaliate against themselves, or to set off a storm by themselves to attack the big shots behind them.

This realization made Hou Wendong feel a chill, as if he were placing a sampan in an ocean full of reefs. No matter which way he drifted, he could not escape the desperate situation of shipwreck and death.

"Did something happen to Xiuwan?" Hou Wendong suddenly remembered the noodle shop proprietress who looked like his deceased wife.

On the one hand it was concern, he was really attracted to this woman, on the other hand it was...

"If nothing happened to Xiuwan, she should have reported the crime." Hou Wendong was in a state of confusion. At this moment, he didn't even know that he was subconsciously leaning towards whether Li Xiuwan had reported the crime.

"If Xiuwan has reported the crime, then Councilor Wang should have learned about my kidnapping by now. What action will he take? Will he spare no effort to rescue me, or will he have ulterior motives..."

Hou Wendong's heart was filled with worries. He painfully realized that at this critical moment, none of the friends he maintained with great care would be sincerely willing to lend a helping hand.

Their current mentality may be more urgent than those who kidnapped them, hoping that they would die quickly.

"When you are alive, you should always have one or two true friends who can share the joys and sorrows together. Otherwise, once you die, you won't even know who to entrust to detonate the secret evidence in your hands."

Hou Wendong thought miserably in his heart, and he swore that if he could escape this time, he would exchange "sincerity for sincerity" and at least develop and maintain a true friend.

Warehouse door.

The three true friends who have done great things together and have their lives tied together take off the hoods that hide their faces and look at each other with their most sincere faces.

Li Shan patted Ma Bin and Chang Erbing's shoulders affectionately, and said in a heavy and firm tone:

"You two are willing to take risks in order to help me. I, Li Sheng, will remember this friendship in my heart. I won't say any more words of gratitude. From now on, you two will be my, Li Sheng, brothers who depend on each other for life and death."

A blush appeared on Chang Erbing's cheeks, and he responded emotionally:

"Captain Li, even if this matter hadn't happened, I, Chang Erbing, would have already decided to follow you. I don't accept the appointment of anyone else in the patrol room as captains, but I admire Captain Li from the bottom of my heart."

Ma Bin gently pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, with an excited look on his face. He echoed:

"Captain Li, when you successfully overcome this difficulty, solve the problem of the special commissioner, and be promoted to the official captain, that will be just around the corner."

Li Shan laughed loudly twice, and the excitement caused the faded finger marks to re-stain a bright blush on his face, making it particularly dazzling.

He enthusiastically stretched out his arms, hugged Chang Erbing and Ma Bin on the left and right, and said proudly:

"From now on, you will only call me 'Captain Li' when outsiders are present. In private, we are blood brothers and call me 'Big Brother'."

Chang Erbing immediately responded loudly: "Big Brother."

Ma Bin pursed his lips slightly, and followed with a shy voice: "Big Brother."

"Good! Good! Good!"

Li Shang's face bloomed with a satisfied smile, and then he whispered to Ma Bin,

"The next thing will be left to you to handle. Erbing and I must return to the patrol room as soon as possible to prepare for the instructions from above."

Before he finished speaking, Li Shang heard the buzzing sound of a vibrating mobile phone in his pocket.

He quickly picked up the phone, and immediately heard a hurried voice in his ear: "Captain Li, where are you? Come back quickly, there is a big case in the district, it's urgent!"

Li Shang cast a look at Ma Bin and Chang Erbing, and the two immediately fell silent.

Li Shang then responded in a deep voice: "I am outside tracking the clues of [Mask], and the special commissioner is urging me almost every day. Humph, what kind of case can be more important than the task assigned by the special commissioner?"

The person on the other end of the phone raised his voice: "Captain Li, it's really urgent! An important secretary of the Executive Government has been kidnapped, and the situation is serious. The Executive Government said that they will send someone to come and directly guide the work of the patrol room."

"Got it, I'll be back immediately." Li Shang hung up the phone concisely, turned to Ma Bin and said, "Next, we will act separately according to your plan."

After that, Li Shang took Chang Erbing out quickly.

Ma Bin stood there, looking at their backs, and said with concern: "Brother, you must keep this case firmly in your hands."

Li Shang turned around and waved his fist, got into a second-hand car with a brand name, drove a long distance, changed back to the blue and white car, circled around, and then drove back to the patrol room.

Ma Bin waited until the sound of the car completely disappeared in the distance before slowly taking out his silent phone from his pocket.

A missed call notification was displayed on the screen.

Ma Bin took a deep breath, pinched his throat, imitated the hoarse voice of someone who had just woken up from a dream, and pressed the redial button:

"Secretary Du, I'm sorry, I slept too deeply just now. What? Oh, okay, I know. I will send all the brothers of the Green Wolf Gang out."

"The patrol station? I have dealt with them several times and I am familiar with Captain Li Shang. He, um, is a little greedy, but his mouth is reliable."

"I don't know much about Captain Li's ability to investigate cases, but it should be okay. Um, yes, Boss Zheng was shot dead by Captain Li. Um, I didn't tell him anything. Um, okay, I understand."

"Please ask Secretary Du to tell the leader that our Green Wolf Gang will do our best to share the leader's worries."
