Chapter 30

Unfortunately, what happened was a thunderstorm that brought hail, and it happened over Jinlan Villa.

Jinlan Villa received its first hailstorm since it was built. Hailstones larger than an adult's fist came crashing down. Tiles, glass, street lamps, trash cans... either shattered or were smashed into deep dents.

Qiao Xi has been standing by the window to observe the situation outside. It has three layers of protection: special glass, stainless steel screens, and stainless steel anti-theft windows. She is not worried about hail coming in. She has observed that many buildings can prevent hail with just anti-theft windows. After all, it is just hail and not bombs.

More than two hours later, the sound of ping-pong-pong-pong-pong finally disappeared, the dark clouds dissipated, and the scorching sun once again occupied the sky, continuing to dissipate heat wantonly and baking the earth mercilessly. The hail on the ground was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Qiao Xi opened the door, and the garden was in a mess. The flowers, plants and trees that had survived by relying on vegetable washing water were swaying here and there, and the ground was covered with broken flowers and leaves. The sweet-scented osmanthus tree that had grown tiny flower buds was beaten bare. I originally wanted to pick sweet-scented osmanthus to make pastries, but now I can't.

The electronic fence and anti-theft windows were occasionally slightly deformed in several places. I tried it after starting the generator and found that the electronic fence could be used as usual.

Qiao Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the deformed electronic fence on the wall, and felt a little worried: "But hold on, it's hard to replace it now."

Qiao Xi was relieved: "We have all the materials and welding guns. If they break, we can replace them ourselves. It doesn't have to be pretty, just be strong."

She looked at the Zhou family's villa next door. All the glass windows were broken, the sunroom on the roof was also smashed, and the steel pipe glass fell into the garden. She is not the owner and has no right to install them for them, but she has stockpiled a batch of materials in the hope that they will be useful one day.

Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun were tidying up the garden below. Qiao Xi climbed to the top of the balcony protective net to check, picking up the branches above and the curtains that were floating out from someone's house.

Standing high and looking far away, you can clearly see the panoramic view of the community that was in a mess. The villa without anti-theft windows was smashed into a mess, and faint cries and curses came from every corner.

Qiao Xi frowned. It must be that the neighbor was worried that the house was not a casualty. Every household has a basement, and there was a radio station that warned more than 40 minutes in advance. The management even drove around the community with a loudspeaker.

After cleaning up the debris on the terrace, she took out the solar panels and installed them again. After turning on the power, she went downstairs and found that there were guests at home.

Mrs. Xu was sitting on the sofa with her thirteen-year-old daughter Xu Linling, while Xi Jingyun was treating the wounds on Xu Linling's face.

After saying hello, Qiao Xi wondered: "Why are you injured?" The Xu family's protection was no worse than theirs.

Mrs. Xu showed a helpless and distressed expression: "This girl is so unlucky. When she went to pick up hailstones in the garden, she was hit by a falling branch. Fortunately, the branch was not thick and only had a few small cuts. What happened to her face? Come on, don't worry if you don't take care of it. You'll have to wait in line for a long time to go to the hospital, so come here and ask your mother to take care of it."

"Such a small thing can't be said to be troublesome." Xi Jingyun, who had taken care of the wound, warned, "Change the medicine every three days. Be careful not to touch the water or sweat. Eat lightly during this period and don't eat fat."

Mrs. Xu nodded repeatedly. Xu Linling was a little absent-minded and kept following the spotted cat. Noticing this, Mrs. Xu explained with a smile: "She likes cats and has five cats at home."

Xu Linling pursed her lips, looked at the adults, and finally her eyes fell on Qiao Xi, who had the smallest age difference with her: "Sister, what kind of cat are you?"

Qiao Xi shook his head: "I didn't know if I picked it up on the road. Do you know?"

Xu Linling had a strange expression: "It seems to be an ocelot."

Qiao Xi noticed that the little girl's expression was not simple: "What's wrong with this kind of cat?"

Xu Linling scratched his face: "National second-level protected animals cannot be kept by private individuals."

Qiao Xi was more concerned: "Then is it a leopard or a cat?"

Xu Linling's eyebrows curved: "It's a cat."

Qiao Xi stared at the tabby cat parkouring on the cat climbing frame. It was not obvious how thin it was before, but after it became smooth and smooth, she felt that the more the hair lines looked, the more leopard-like it looked. I even compared it with animal picture albums, but unlike the little leopard, I even had the irresponsible idea that the leopard cheated on the cat. I never thought that there were cats like ocelots in the world. I have gained experience.

She cleared her throat and lied to the little girl seriously: "It's actually a protected animal. Fortunately, I picked it up. I was seriously injured at the time. I'll contact the relevant units later."

It was impossible to give her away. After raising her for more than a month and developing feelings for her early, even her parents would not let her go.

Hearing this, Xu Linling showed an expression of reluctance, a little regretting that he had spoken too quickly. I heard that many animals died from the heat in the zoo. Ocelots are not that precious since they are not giant pandas. Will they be properly taken care of there? It would be even more pitiful if they were released into nature.

She looked at Qiao Xi eagerly: "Can you not send it away? I won't tell anyone. If sister doesn't want to raise it, you can give it to me and I will raise it. If anyone asks in the future, I will say that I picked it up myself. , It has nothing to do with my sister's family."

She is really a little girl who loves cats. Qiao Xi pretended to hesitate: "Then I won't send you away. You have to help me keep the secret."

The little girl nodded repeatedly, and asked a little embarrassedly but expectantly: "Then can I bring my cat over to play with it?"

Qiao laughed and said nothing.

Mrs. Xu is such a shrewd person, knowing that this is rejection. This family is relatively independent and rarely interacts with neighbors. Nowadays, many neighbors often visit each other to play cards to pass the time, and their families never participate in card games.

"The bad tempers of your cats are not here to play but to fight." Mrs. Xu changed the subject, "Okay, we should go home. Sister and the others still have to clean up the house."

Xu Linling stood up obediently and thanked Xi Jingyun again.

Xi Jingyun, who was seeing off the guests, picked up the two bottles of famous wine that were placed on the cabinet in the entrance hall when the mother and daughter entered: "There is no need to be so polite when asking for help."

Mrs. Xu worked hard for the safety of the community. In August, in order to appease the three security guards who accidentally caused the death of a thief, Mrs. Xu spent 60,000 yuan from her own pocket to reward them. This was to tell all property security guards not to do anything like this again in the future. Look forward and backward, and drive away when you need to.

Just for this reason, it was right to help her daughter deal with minor wounds.

"It's a small effort for you, but it's a big deal for us. I'm just such a treasure." Mrs. Xu pushed back with a smile, "It's just two bottles of wine, and it's not a very expensive thing. It doesn't look good pushing it around. Besides, morning I just want to thank you. If it hadn't been for the work on your house and our house hadn't reacted so quickly to install anti-theft windows, we might not have been able to save our house now."

Speaking of this, Xi Jingyun was not polite. The couple runs a listed pharmaceutical company. After the solar storm, they took the initiative to cooperate with the state. The company is still operating normally. The couple retains part of the management rights and is quite capable. They are indeed worthy of these two bottles of wine.

After seeing off the Xu family's mother and daughter, Xi Jingyun sighed to Qiao Xi: "Mrs. Xu and I are about the same age. When we were young, we were busy working on our careers, and it was too late to have children. They are not young now, and their daughter is so young." It's a bit big, the old man above is 70 or 80 years old, it's not easy to think about."

"Some people live by their hands and feet, and some rely on their brains. Mrs. Xu and his wife are both very good people, and they have nothing to do with their pharmaceutical company. As long as the government is still there, their lives will be the same." Qiao Xi smiled, "If there are places like security bases and underground cities in the capital in the future, the Xu family will definitely have a place."

On the other hand, their family is powerless and worthless. If the number of places is limited, they may not have a share. That's why she went to the doctor in a hurry and placed her slim hope on the Bodhi bracelet, hoping that it could become a safe fortress for the whole family. It has only been more than a month, but she will not give up. She has enough patience and is willing to wait for one year, two years, three years... ten years, as long as she can be given so much time.

Xi Jingyun thought about it and joked to her daughter: "Then what does our family do for a living?"

Qiao Xi boasted: "Relying on both hands and feet as well as brains, our family is good at both civil and military skills."

Xi Jingyun couldn't help laughing.

Qiao Xi walked over and picked up the spotted cat. No, it was a leopard cat. He was amazed: "I didn't expect you to have such a background. You are a second-level protected animal. Cats really don't look like cats."

Xi Jingyun also found it incredible: "Fortunately, it doesn't like to go out. If someone sees it and reports it, it might be taken away." Life has become difficult, but the basic social order still exists.

They joked for a while and then went about their business.

Xi Jingyun went to the balcony to start the washing machines that were half-way through washing. Taking advantage of the strong sun, he washed and dried the new clothes, sheets and bed covers, so that they would be clean and comfortable to use in the future.

Qiao Xi and Qiao Yuanshan were cleaning up garbage in the garden.

"I'm sweeping the floor. Xixi is sensible and not squeamish at all. Unlike other little girls, she doesn't do any housework."

Qiao Xi looked at Ruan Yihui outside the wrought iron fence. She didn't know many neighbors, but this one was one of them. She remembered him because he was weird enough, so she just smiled.

Ruan Yihui looked around: "Where is your mother?"

Qiao laughed back: "In the house."

Ruan Yihui: "I have something to do with your mother. Please open the door for auntie."

Qiao Xi asked: "What's the matter?"

Ruan Yihui laughed and said: "You are a very curious child. I have to tell your mother about adult matters. Hurry, open the door and let Auntie die from the sun."

Hiding it and refusing to say it, his intuition was not a good thing. Qiao Xi did not move: "My mother was frightened. It is not convenient to see people at the moment."

Ruan Yihui was doubtful and frightened. You must be lying. Xi Jingyun doesn't seem to be such a timid person. She stared at Qiao Xi, realizing that it was the daughter of the Qiao family who didn't want to open the door for her, and secretly cursed her for being too young and too clever.

At this time, Qiao Yuanshan, who was busy in the backyard, heard the noise and came over.

As soon as she saw him, Ruan Yihui's eyes lit up and she felt that there was something going on. The older people were always more considerate than these young people: "Old Qiao, I want to discuss something with you. Look at this big sun, you can't let it go." Let me stand here and say it."

Qiao Yuanshan frowned, Old Qiao, what old Qiao, are we so familiar with you? He dislikes Ruan Yihui's family very much. Because Ruan Yihui actually wants to introduce her son, who was approached by a woman with a protruding belly, to his own daughter. He still gets angry when he thinks about it and refuses to pee or take a photo. Is he worthy? ?

Qiao Yuanshan's attitude was very firm: "If you have anything to do, just talk here. Our family is very busy right now."

Ruan Yihui's face was a little confused, but she got lucky and put on a smile again: "My house was completely hit by hail, and I can't live in it. Your family has too few rooms, so why not let us stay in your guest room for two days. Wait for me to find it I have no choice but to move back as soon as the house is repaired. My other houses have been destroyed and I really have no place to go. It's better to be a distant relative than a close neighbor, so you can help me."

Qiao Xi curled her lips and went to his other house. Who didn't know that her prodigal son had lost all the billions left by his father? Even the villa in Jinlan Villa had been mortgaged. If it hadn't been for the end of the world, the villa might have been seized and auctioned by the court.

As for why I know so clearly, I heard it from my neighbors. This family has not paid the property fee and fence fee, so why do they have to be talked about for a few words? Shake out.

"You can go to the government shelter for a few days." How could Qiao Yuanshan agree? Not to mention that their family had secrets. Even if they didn't have any secrets, they would not take in Ruan Yihui and her son, who were of poor character. It was easy to pray to the gods, but difficult to give them away.

Ruan Yihui frowned fiercely: "How can people with our status go to a refugee camp and crowd together with those poor people."

Qiao Yuanshan and Qiao Xi were both surprised and didn't understand where she had such a strong sense of superiority. Not to mention that their family had long been in ruins and was already insolvent. Even if they were not bankrupt, they just had some money.

The expressions on the father and daughter's faces were so obvious that Ruan Yihui gritted her teeth secretly. If her husband hadn't died suddenly from overwork six years ago, how could their family be in this situation today? They couldn't even install a security window, so there would be no need to beg for help, let alone I would like to match up a chef's daughter and my own son. She really thought that she was a murderer, and her family didn't dislike her, but she had the nerve to dislike her son.

However, the situation was stronger than the people, and Ruan Yihui got lucky: "Old Qiao, after so many years of living with my neighbor, you really don't want to save me. If you let Jingyun come out, I don't believe that Jingyun is so cruel."

In fact, Xi Jingyun only had a friendship with her after playing cards for a few games. After Ruan Yihui wanted to bring her son and Qiao Xi together, Xi Jingyun politely refused, and Ruan Yihui still pretended to be stupid, Xi Jingyun stayed away from her. There was really no friendship.

Qiao Yuanshan frowned: "Jingyun is here and I'm still saying this. We can't live with outsiders in our home, so don't make things difficult for others. If you don't want to go to the shelter, you can live in the basement of your house."

Every suite in Jinlan Villa has a basement. Hail damage is to the ground-level buildings, and the impact on the basement is limited.

Ruan Yihui was angry. A nouveau riche was a nouveau riche. She had no education at all. It was a shame that her son could not succeed with her. Ruan Yihui glared at Qiao Xi and his daughter fiercely, turned around and left, not believing that mother and son would not be able to find a place to stay without your Qiao family.

I really can't find it. The mother and son have not made good friends. At this juncture, everyone is very cautious and they are not willing to take in anyone who is not a relative.

Ruan Yihui, who had been rejected one after another, was so angry that she burst into tears. She cried to her son Xu Dongwei: "You are such a scornful thing. If your father was still here, how could they dare to be so merciless. Son, you have to live up to your expectations and fight your mother." Get it back with this breath."

Xu Dongwei's eyes were gloomy.

Finally, when the community came to collect casualties and losses at night, the mother and son had to take their belongings to the shelter.

Although the basement was barely habitable, the solar panels were damaged by hail and the outdoor unit of the air conditioner also broke. How dare you live in a basement without air conditioning in this kind of temperature? If you are not careful, you will get heat stroke, which can kill you.

It was also from the community staff that Qiao Xi knew the approximate scope of this hailstorm, which was about eight kilometers wide and twenty kilometers long. Jinlan Villa was the most severely damaged area. Fortunately, most houses had installed anti-theft windows, so there was no problem. The house where it was installed also had a basement, so there were only a few minor injuries and no deaths.

When going out, Xi Jingyun stuffed plastic bags filled with cold drinks into them: "Thank you for your hard work, you are still running around outside on such a hot day."

The drinks were half-frozen, and there was a layer of frost on the bottle, which made people feel cool just looking at it. The staff couldn't bear to refuse, so they took it sheepishly: "Thank you, thank you, this is what we should do."

Due to this hailstorm, Jinlan Villa moved many people away. As for the remaining people, how should they live their lives?

In the blink of an eye, we entered October, which was supposed to be a crisp autumn day. Instead of falling, the temperature continued to rise, approaching the sixty-degree mark. Under such high temperatures, Qiao Xi's family can only go to the club at night. Otherwise, if they run on the asphalt road exposed to the sun for a long time, the tires will melt or even explode. Even the car is in danger of spontaneous combustion.

If you walk too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts.

The front foot was still saying that it was the Double Ninth Festival and he wanted to eat Double Ninth Cake. The back foot of Qiao Xi put away his smile, slowed down the car, took out a new mobile phone, and said: "Mom and Dad, there are a lot of nails on the road ahead, it must be intentional. I Go down and take a look, you guys wait for me in the car."

As she said that, she handed her new mobile phone to Qiao Yuanshan: "Dad, take a photo of it and ask them to sit through the bottom of the prison." The social order has not collapsed yet, and it can't be too bloody, otherwise you will get yourself in, so you have to send them in. . In the past, people in prison were provided with food and housing, and they could work no more than eight hours. But now there is no such good thing. Food and housing are still provided, but 997 labor is implemented, and human rights are not human rights. We will wait until society gets back on track, otherwise it will not be possible. A group of people were clever and used the prison as a free hotel with food and accommodation.

Seeing that the car was not fooled, the four robbers who blocked the road spat. The driver's eyes were sharp. If the mountain can't be overcome, I will go over. The four people came out of the darkness with steel sticks and fruit knives.

Xi Jingyun's expression changed, and she hurriedly urged: "Reverse the car, reverse the car quickly!"

The ocelot sitting in her arms meows uneasily. When they are not at home, they will turn off the power to prevent thunderstorms, and the air conditioner will be turned off accordingly. The little guy has no choice but to go out, otherwise it will be heated to death.

Qiao Xi smiled reassuringly: "The road behind is blocked, Mom, it's okay, but you still don't trust your daughter's ability."

Qiao Yuanshan turned around and saw that there was a van behind him. Four people got out of the van. There were no forks on both sides of the road. There were wolves in front and tigers in the back. It was obvious that the other party was well prepared: "There are so many of them. Don't be impulsive, we'll call the police."

Qiao Xi shrugged slightly: "No matter how much rubbish there is, it is still rubbish."

Qiao Yuanshan glared: "Just be patient and give me the whistle issued by the community."

It is not convenient to call the police now, so the community has sent out a police whistle and is equipped with a code form. Three long and two short means calling the police. If the nearby patrol team hears it, they will rush over immediately.

"These people have probably studied the patrol rules and took advantage of the time difference." With that said, Qiao Xi still threw the police whistle to Qiao Yuanshan, and at the same time took out two guns for them to defend themselves. He opened the car door and stepped out of the car. Lock the car doors. If you don't get out of the car, when these people come close and smash the car windows, you will be very passive if you stay inside.

Qiao Yuanshan, who wanted to follow him out, couldn't open the door. He fell back in anger and quickly whistled.

Xi Jingyun stared with anger, grabbed her cell phone and took pictures, thinking that she would give this daring and unlucky kid a lesson when he turned around.

When they saw Qiao Xi coming out on his own initiative, the robbers were overjoyed. This was a million-dollar luxury car. It was best not to destroy it if possible. If it could be sold elsewhere, it could fetch at least three to five million.

Looking at Qiao Xisheng's beauty, the leader's eyes became wet and sticky: "Grab this woman, shut up the people inside, and move faster while the patrol team is not around."

Qiao Xi moved faster than them, and each stick was harder than the last. He was trying to break his legs, otherwise he would have let people escape. Before, she wouldn't have dared to attack so harshly, fearing that she would get into trouble if she defended herself too much, but things were different now. Judging from the few cases she had heard about recently, it was okay. As public security becomes more and more chaotic, the punishments imposed on criminals are obviously stricter, and the standards of legitimate defense are relatively relaxed.

However, there were many people on the other side, eight of them, and three of them were particularly thieves. When they saw that the situation was not good, they ran away immediately. Qiao Xi didn't chase her parents while they were still in the car.

Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun in the car slapped the windows hard.

Qiao Xi touched his nose and pressed the car key to unlock the car. The couple who opened the car door and got out stared at their daughter. Just as they were about to say something, she saw her open the driver's door with a snap: "Oh, they want to run away."

She bent down as if to take something from the driver's seat, but in fact she took out handcuffs from the space - sexy handcuffs. She had received many at the port. He chased after him and handcuffed the robbers who were limping and trying to escape. They handcuffed two people in one pair, handcuffed them alternately, and then circled them in the middle. The five people were entangled into each other and became grasshoppers on a rope. No one could No one can run away.

This busy work successfully blocked what Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun wanted to say. Qiao Yuanshan got lucky and spent all his energy on whistling.

After two minutes, the patrol finally appeared. It can be said that the time difference of the group of robbers was very accurate, and they were able to find a ten-minute gap in such frequent patrols.

"Qiao Xi!" Lu Ziqian said in surprise.

"Squad leader." Qiao Xi was also a little surprised. The patrol member turned out to be the monitor in high school, the only clear voice in the class. Of the twenty-four classmates in the class, twenty-three went to study abroad. Only he went to the domestic police academy and became a glorious people's policeman after graduation.

Lu Ziqian looked at the robber who was handcuffed into a ball: "Did you encounter a robbery?"

Qiao Xi's heart moved: "Has this happened before?"

"There is a group of bastards who go around committing crimes. They throw nails to block cars in the middle of the night, steal money and kill people. Their bodies will be disposed of. We didn't know about their existence until a victim escaped by chance and reported the crime a few days ago." Lu Ziqian took a look. Nails scattered on the road, and then looking at the five strong men with bruises and swollen faces, "Did you do it alone?"

Qiao laughed.

Lu Ziqian gave a thumbs up and sighed with a smile: "Sister Qiao's style is still the same as before!" Many classmates in his class were studying in country M. They immediately promoted her feat of killing armed robbers in the group. The whole class lined up in the group Dear Sister Qiao.

"I said you old classmates should take another time to reminisce about old times and explain things clearly to us so that we can communicate." The captain interrupted with a smile.

With the video on the mobile phone as evidence, Qiao Xi didn't need to say more, what happened was clear at a glance.

She directly handed her cell phone to them, hoping to catch the three escaped fish as soon as possible.

After taking notes, the patrol team simply let him go: "We will return your phone to you later, but it may take some time."

Qiao Xi said yes.

Lu Ziqian smiled and said, "I will send it back to you then, where will you live?"

Qiao Xi reported the address.

Lu Ziqian repeated it to Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun: "Goodbye, uncle and aunt."

The two smiled and nodded.

When Qiao Xi drove away, the captain couldn't help laughing as he stared at the pairs of sexy handcuffs: "You, classmate, are quite playful."

Lu Ziqian thought to himself that he had never noticed it before, tsk tsk, people should not be judged by their appearance.

The captain played back the video on his mobile phone. He was embarrassed to say it before, but now he no longer had any scruples: "You, my classmate, have something on you."

Lu Ziqian started to brag: "Twenty years old, one on three, killed the M country guy who armed himself with a gun and robbed the house, can he have nothing?" After hearing that, she worked hard to practice shooting, which means she didn't have a gun in her hand. Otherwise, no one can escape." He kicked the people on the ground and said, "You are lucky. If you were in country M, you would have been shot away one by one by that aunt."

Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun felt that they were about to be sent away by their bold daughter.

Qiao Xi explained with a smile: "I'm not looking down on you, but you can't kill a chicken with a big knife. You're not at the point where you can use a gun openly, right... I can solve it by myself, so there's no need for you to step in... …You are the killer, stay at the critical moment."

Qiao Yuanshan was happy.

"Okay, stop talking around to coax us, and stop babbling." Xi Jingyun finished talking about her daughter and said to her husband, "Do you have any self-awareness? If you go down, you will only be unhelpful. My daughter has to take care of you."

Qiao Yuanshan choked.

Xi Jingyun's words were serious and pleading: "Xi Xi, mom just wants to say, can we be safe and not take risks? Your dad and I only have you to rely on. If something happens to you, what do you want us to do?"

Qiao Xi calmed down. In fact, she could reverse the car and hit the car behind her head-on. The other car couldn't hit her, but it was a bit dangerous to hit the car. After all, her parents were in the car. After weighing the balance, she chose to go head-on.

"Okay, Mom, I heard it, and I will be more stable next time. Dad, don't be angry, there will definitely be no next time." Qiao Xixin said, it is better to be brave, and escaping is always the last resort. If you can escape, Can I still escape for a while? But in the future, she can be less rigid in front of her parents.

"Next time, next time," Qiao Yuanshan choked out, "I'll punish you by eating coriander for a week."

Qiao Xi, who hates coriander, exclaimed deliberately and exaggeratedly: "This is too cruel. Are you still my biological father?"

"If it wasn't for you, it wouldn't be a month instead of a week."

Let's talk and laugh, this matter is in the past. Otherwise, so what, in general, there was no danger, and five bad guys were successfully captured, which can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.

Two days later, Lu Ziqian came to return the phone and also brought a bag of pomegranates. After all, he was an old classmate, so there was no reason to come empty-handed.

In October, pomegranates are as red as fire. It should be the season when pomegranates are on the market in large quantities. However, the high temperature scorches the fruit trees to death, and the hail kills the fruit trees. The limited resources are invested in ensuring food production, and the dispensable fruits are left to fend for themselves. . Recently, there are fewer and fewer fruits available in supermarkets, and fruits outside have been sold at sky-high prices. It was quite polite to come to the door with a bag of pomegranates at this time.

Lu Ziqian told the follow-up by the way: "The robbers you arrested are the ones who killed people and robbed money recently. There were twelve of them in total, eight of them were dispatched that day. According to the video you provided and the accounts of the five suspects who were arrested According to the clues, six more people were caught, but unfortunately one of them ran away. The one who ran away has seen you, so be careful, for fear of his revenge. "

Qiao Yuanshan, Xi Jingyun all changed their colors.

Lu Ziqian quickly felt reassured: "But this possibility is very small. The arrest warrant has been issued and posted everywhere. If he dares to show up, he will be arrested. I guess he will have gone to other provinces by now."

However, Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun still had lingering fears.

Qiao Xi didn't care. The soldiers came to cover up the water and earth: "What will be the sentence for those people who are caught?"

"There is no escape from the death penalty," Lu Ziqian gritted his teeth, "They are just a group of beasts. They did seven cases in one month and killed sixteen people in total. The youngest was only six years old. She was a little girl. She was raped and killed by them."

Hearing this, Qiao Yuanshan was filled with indignation: "Beast! You should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts!"

"They are just beasts. Three of them were wanted fugitives before the power outage. The others have criminal records. It can be said that they are not good people in the first place." Lu Ziqian looked at Qiao Xi with gratitude in his eyes, "Fortunately, it was you who met me, otherwise I wouldn't have been there." "We know how much evil they will do and how many innocent people they will kill."

Qiao Yuanshan and Xi Jingyun looked at each other and couldn't help but wonder whether these people would have continued to do evil if their daughter had listened to them and ran away that day. Just letting them choose again, they still don't want their daughter to take risks. People are selfish and care more about the safety of their loved ones.

Qiao Xi stared at Lu Ziqian, focusing on: "It's been a month, but there is no news outside. Are there still many secrets about this vicious case?"

Lu Ziqian's eyes wandered.

Qiao Xi understood that in order to maintain stability, she had to report more good news and less bad news, which meant that the public security was worse than she imagined.

Lu Ziqian knew he couldn't hide it, so he smiled bitterly: "Even in the past, some vicious cases could not be fully reported publicly before they were closed, let alone now. Sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing."

Qiao Xi was noncommittal and asked her. She definitely didn't want to be kept in the dark, but there were considerations from above, and they were considering the overall situation.

Lu Ziqian talked about another purpose of coming here this time: "You have contributed a lot to the successful capture of that group of people. The superiors have approved a bonus for you, which is 300,000 yuan. I brought it to you. You sign it. "

Qiao Xi signed a pen and pointed at the pile of money on the coffee table: "Give it to the victim's family, and it will be divided equally between parents, spouse and children." Even if each person only gets a few thousand yuan, they can still buy two or three in the supermarket. Monthly rations.

Lu Ziqian smiled unconsciously, knowing that she was not short of the money, so he agreed and took out his notebook: "I'll write you a receipt, and I'll get you a banner or a certificate of honor later. Don't think it's useless, this is the government The commendation may be useful in the future. In this world, we must hold on to the lap of the country's father."

A few days later, the government announced the punishment of the robbers on the radio, all of them were sentenced to death, and omitted the cumbersome and redundant steps and set the execution date for three days later. The world is in chaos, and it is difficult to deter the demons and monsters that are ready to move in the dark without thunder.

In fact, life is pretty good now, and you can eat free meals in public canteens.

Homes were destroyed, and there were government-provided shelters. Many public places and schools were transformed into shelters to house homeless people. Even if your home is nice, you can live in it. It has air conditioning and three free meals a day. Many people enjoy it.

If you go to the hospital when you are sick, you can get free treatment.

Even after death, the crematorium is free.

Those who start doing evil now are not forced to do anything. They are purely evil by nature and would not regret death.
