Chapter 15 Wu Qi
Ever since the two parties put aside their differences and joined forces to fight against Japan, Wu Qi's status in Qin Province has also risen.

He was promoted to the head of the security department, and was considered a senior official in the police department. Although his position in the police department was awkward and he had few allies, it was still safe as long as he didn't make trouble.

Ever since he met General Qin's concubine at an opera, Wu Qi's heart began to become active. He originally just wanted to use this relationship to get in touch with General Qin and move from the Police Department to the Government Affairs Department. Unexpectedly, his handsome appearance caused trouble.

Wu Qi and General Qin's concubine became increasingly close, and their fight became increasingly heated, to the point where they accidentally ended up fighting on the bed.

But as his desire faded, he began to feel afraid. If this thing was discovered, he would definitely lose his head.

His foundation was never solid, and Wu Qi, who barely managed to gain a foothold in the police department, knew that if this matter was discovered, no one would protect him.

General Qin's concubine was also afraid. If she was discovered, Wu Qi might be fine, but she would definitely end up miserably. The two of them decided to keep the secret together and pretend that nothing had happened.

Everything was fine at first, but they went to bed again after a few days. Wu Qi could feel that Qin Xiaoqi had fallen in love with him, and he couldn't control himself.

But as a man who had been to the battlefield, Wu Qi knew that truth would come to light sooner or later, and by that time the fun would be too great and he would not be able to hold on.

After having wild thoughts, he decided to abandon Qin's concubine and find an outsider to frame her and deal with them together.

Even if the matter was handled crudely at that time, as long as there was evidence that Qin's concubine was having an affair, General Qin would not make a big fuss and conduct a detailed investigation. For the sake of his reputation, he would probably want to resolve the matter as soon as possible more than anyone else.

By then, when he has control of the case, he can also try to get close to General Qin. Wu Qi knows a lot about General Qin's preferences from Qin's concubine.

After all, if General Qin hadn't made his concubine stay alone in the empty room for more than half a year, making her like a resentful woman in the boudoir, he would not have been able to eat this delicious meat.

Inside the Security Division office of the Police Department, two people were sitting on the sofa and talking.

One of them was in his thirties, handsome, and wearing a more high-end and more serious police uniform than Zheng Wenjie. He said in a gentle manner: "Comrade, you have worked hard on this journey. Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Zheng Wenjie shook his head and replied respectfully: "Thank you, Chief. Everything went smoothly along the way and we can start working at any time." Wu Qi smiled and said: "Young people are full of energy. You are a talent selected by Anqing County. I believe you can complete this task perfectly!"

Zheng Wenjie promised seriously: "I will do my best to complete the task and not let the section chief down." Wu Qi was very satisfied with Zheng Wenjie's performance. He thought that Zheng Wenjie was young and had little experience, and his attitude and conversation were very respectful. If he was not mistaken, there was no problem with this selection.

"The day after tomorrow is the day when the first batch of teachers and students from Northwestern University will leave. You will follow the first batch of students." Wu Qi took a sip of water and continued, "Little comrade, we will welcome you at Wanghua Building at 7 o'clock tonight."

Zheng Wenjie was a little surprised and refused: "Chief, don't bother with that. It's okay."

Wu Qi waved his hand: "The seats have been reserved. I will introduce someone to you tonight. General Qin's son is also studying at Northwestern University. He will also be the first batch of students to move the day after tomorrow."

Zheng Wenjie nodded. The meaning was very clear. General Qin's son needed special protection.

"General Qin's family will also come to the banquet tonight. Remember, seven o'clock. Don't be late." Wu Qi instructed seriously.

After Zheng Wenjie left the police station, he was too lazy to think about Wu Qi's intentions. As a general, why did he need the police to protect his son? Wouldn't it be more reliable to send two guards?

Wu Qi is the same. He obviously doesn't work in the same city, but he is so enthusiastic towards a small third-level policeman. Is it necessary? There is a saying that goes, "If you are too attentive to others, you are either a traitor or a thief." Zheng Wenjie restrained his expression, strolled on the street, and stopped a young man to ask for directions.

"Hello, where can I find a place to stay?" The young man who was stopped originally lowered his head and wanted to quickly pass Zheng Wenjie and leave, but he didn't expect to be stopped. He was shocked and thought he was going to be blackmailed.

But when he was told that he was just asking for directions, he relaxed. He pointed ahead and said, "Sir, there is a restaurant just ahead on Wenhua Road, turn left and you can stay overnight."

Zheng Wenjie nodded and thanked him, then walked to the restaurant the young man mentioned and looked at the plaque, which read "Dingxianglou".

Standing at the door of the restaurant, watching the waiter soliciting customers outside the restaurant but ignoring him, Zheng Wenjie got a little angry. He grabbed the waiter and asked, "Hey, I'm such a big man standing at your door, can't you see it?"

The waiter shook the towel off his shoulders and said with a smile: "Sir, we have never missed the share money at Dingxianglou." Zheng Wenjie was stunned. What is the share money? Do you think I am a policeman or a gangster who collects protection money?
"I'm here to stay," Zheng Wenjie replied. The waiter waved his towel reluctantly and said, "Sir, why don't you just go in? The shopkeeper is inside."

Zheng Wenjie was too lazy to bother with the waiter and went straight in to find the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, please stay at the hotel." The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man and said with a smile, "Sir, how many days do you want to stay? I will arrange it for you right away."

Zheng Wenjie gestured "two days". The shopkeeper hurriedly called the waiter in: "Xiao Liu, take the boss to the room." The waiter waved the towel reluctantly and said "Please, boss."

Zheng Wenjie was a little angry. He paid for the hotel himself, but what was the attitude of the waiter?

I imitated Gong Ruomei and looked at the shopkeeper coldly and said, "Is this how you do business at Dingxianglou?" Before the shopkeeper could say anything, the waiter interrupted and said, "If the superiors come to our Dingxianglou a few more times, we will have to close down sooner or later."

The shopkeeper laughed hastily and said, "Xiao Liu is a country boy, he doesn't know anything, sir, please don't bother with him. I'll take you there, please."

Zheng Wenjie understood what was going on and stopped the shopkeeper and said, "You haven't collected the money yet. How much is it for two days?"

The shopkeeper waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Sir, you think highly of us. How dare we charge you for staying at Dingxianglou? Please go in."

After living there for a few days, Zheng Wenjie roughly understood the prices at that time. He took out two dollars, threw them on the shopkeeper's desk, and pulled the shopkeeper upstairs.

Unable to refuse, the shopkeeper greeted him with a more sincere and cordial smile and entered the guest room. "Sir, please tell me if you have anything to say."

Zheng Wenjie looked around the guest rooms. Although this "Dingxianglou" was relatively small and the layout of the rooms was simple, the furniture and furnishings were complete, and there was even a toilet in the corner.

"Call a rickshaw and call me back at six o'clock. Don't delay my work." "Understood, please take a rest first." The shopkeeper agreed readily, closed the door, and went back to the lobby.

Zheng Wenjie lay on the bed with his hands behind his head.

Being a policeman these days is meaningless. Those with a little power look down on the police, while ordinary civilians are afraid of the police like a tiger.

If he had not promised Qi Yu to complete this mission, Zheng Wenjie would have taken off his police uniform and left with Gong Ruomei after getting off the train. After all, as the first disciple of the master, it was only natural for him to be supported by his master.

It was not until the sky gradually darkened that the waiter knocked on the door and woke up Zheng Wenjie. Looking at the waiter smiling like a flower, Zheng Wenjie could not get angry. Instead, he liked this waiter who dared to resist injustice, although his behavior would not have any effect and would cause trouble.
