Chapter 112 The Passionate Zuo Kang

"Hmm, go on in. Send me a text message when you reach Muhe to let me know you're safe."

Uncle Wang wore a radiant smile.

He had finally managed to send this big Buddha away, and next, he would send Little Liu away too.

Once that was done, he would have nothing to worry about for the rest of this trip.

Seeing Chen Mo agree, he turned and left.

In short, he was feeling quite comfortable at this moment!

He was already fantasizing about how comfortable his life would be from now on.

He could watch the fun however he wanted.

Without any fear!

Arriving at the roadside, he waved down a motorcycle.

"I'm going to the Xinli Hotel. How much?"

Uncle Wang reached into his pocket, preparing to pay in advance.

Just at that moment.

A hearty voice rang out from the side.

"Here for tourism, right? I'm a local. You guys are boosting our local consumption."

"My home happens to be on the way there, so it's free."

That sounded great.

Saying this, he took his hand out of his pocket.

Immediately, he sat on the back seat of Zuo Kang's motorcycle.

"Sigh, good people are hard to find these days!"

He couldn't help but exclaim.

He wasn't short on money; it was mainly to give a Luocheng fellow a chance to show some goodwill.

At least, that was what Uncle Wang thought.

"Yeah, good people really are rare, so we have to be a beam of light in the darkness to reform those bad people."

Zuo Kang rode the motorcycle, the wind whistling past his ears, as he spoke casually.

"Young man, you've got a real perspective. I really like what you said."

He immediately clenched his right hand into a fist, reached out in front of Zuo Kang, and popped his thumb out, giving a thumbs-up gesture.

"Old man, are you here in Luocheng for tourism? Are you familiar with the Xinli Hotel?"

Zuo Kang pretended to ask casually.

"I arrived the day before yesterday, so I'm not very familiar with it."

Uncle Wang answered casually; he was indeed unfamiliar with many of the roads and was visiting Luocheng for the first time.

"Then hold on tight."

Zuo Kang twisted the throttle to the max.

And sped rapidly toward the Luocheng Municipal Bureau.

He had already arranged for others to enter the train station to check that young man's (Chen Mo) suitcase.

After all, compared to young people, an elderly man was easier to handle and didn't require as many people.

A moment later.

"Hey, hey, hey, did you take the wrong road?"

Uncle Wang checked the time on his phone; why hadn't they arrived yet after so long?

Looking at the public security building not far away, he looked puzzled.

Did he go the wrong way?

"Don't worry, I won't charge you."

...

Luocheng Train Station.

When Chen Mo went through security, he was asked to open his suitcase.

Not just him, the few people in front of him had also done the same.

In fact, he had already put his suitcase on the conveyor belt for the security scan.

He didn't really feel anything about it and didn't want to cause trouble.

However, he felt that the security personnel had an air about them that was somewhat similar to his own.

They didn't look like contract workers; they looked more like police officers.

After opening his luggage, one of the security personnel walked up to him, ready to take action at any moment.

While another security guard was quickly rummaging through his suitcase, trying to find something.

But after searching for a long time and finding nothing, they finally gave up.

"No problem, go ahead."

Chen Mo looked confused, but simply assumed they were carrying out a task.

He didn't want to meddle in other people's business either.

He immediately went to the waiting hall to wait for the train to arrive.

— Ding-dong.

A text message notification sounded on his phone.

Liu Fengxia: [You left? You just left like that?]

Liu Fengxia: [Do you even consider me a friend? You didn't even tell me in advance.]

Looking at the tone and the current time.

She had likely discovered he was gone and learned through Elder Liu that he had already returned.

He did actually consider Liu Fengxia a friend; at least, he didn't dislike her.

She was decisive and didn't drag things out.

This aligned with his prerequisites for making friends.

Chen Mo: [I drank too much last night and forgot.]

He had to use two cans of beer as a scapegoat.

Liu Fengxia: [Fine, then see you in the provincial capital.]

After replying with a "Hmm."

The train arrived at the station just then, so he put away his phone and walked in.

...

On the other side.

Luocheng Municipal Bureau.

Zuo Kang parked the motorcycle at the entrance of the police station and turned off the engine.

"Young man, what is the meaning of this?"

He had just left here yesterday, and today he was brought back again.

What was this about? They knew he didn't want to have contact with the police, yet they brought him here anyway?

Bullying an honest man, right!

"Do you not know what I mean yourself?"

Damn it.

So arrogant?

"I sat on your motorcycle; does that mean I have to go inside?"

He refused to believe it.

He hadn't even watched the fun today.

Even if the person in front of him was a police officer, he wanted the other party to apologize to him.

In fact, Zuo Kang had been a police officer for many years; if the old man in front of him really had a problem.

Then he should have jumped off the bike halfway there.

Or, at the entrance of the police station, he should be running away right now instead of being in a standoff with him.

But after all, drugs were a red line.

He had always upheld the attitude of "it's better to arrest the wrong person than to let a criminal go."

"Police."

Zuo Kang grabbed Uncle Wang with one hand and stated his identity with the other.

Then the two walked into the Municipal Bureau.

"I'll walk, I'll walk, let go of my hand!"

"Let's see what you can do to me today. Can police just arrest good people whenever they want?"

Seeing this, Zuo Kang let go of his hand, thinking the person wouldn't be able to run away anyway.

"Captain Liu, let me borrow your interrogation room."

As he spoke, he greeted Liu Fengxia, who had just put away her phone.

"No problem."

"Is this your target? I feel like I've seen him before."

She saw too many people every day, and for a moment, she really couldn't remember where she had seen this old man.

"Still claiming to be a good person?"

If he could make the police recognize him, could he be a good person?

Saying this, he took away all of Uncle Wang's personal belongings and then brought him to the interrogation room.

Seeing this familiar scene, Uncle Wang was furious inside!

He still couldn't figure out why he had been brought here.

He was harboring a bellyful of anger.

"What did you whisper to the stall owner?"

The stall owner at White Horse Temple was actually a drug subcontractor, and many addicts would buy from her.

The high foot traffic was perfect for transactions and escaping.

The stall owner?

Uncle Wang recalled two popsicles in his mind.

"I told her to straighten out her work attitude, not to sleep on the job, and to retire early to enjoy her later years."

"What, is it against the law to encourage people to work hard now!"

Having had much contact with the police, Uncle Wang no longer felt any fear.

In the eyes of many police officers, this would subconsciously be judged as being a slippery old fox.

"Let's not play games. How much stock did the stall owner have this time, and who is her supplier?"

Uncle Wang looked puzzled upon hearing this.

He recalled the ice cream in the freezer in his mind.

"A freezer full, I guess."

"That's what I saw, a freezer full."

Zuo Kang was delighted to hear this, but immediately realized what he meant.

"Are you playing dumb? I'm asking how much heroin she has in her hands!"

He... heroin?

The atmosphere in the interrogation room became quiet for a moment.

No matter how slow he was to react, he understood that the stall owner was involved in drugs.

And he had coincidentally chatted with her, and then got targeted by the police who were staking out the place.

"Officer, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"

"Let me make a phone call."

Zuo Kang smiled and shook his head upon hearing this, finding his request incomprehensible.

"Regardless of whether you are or not, you can only stay here for the time being and cannot contact the outside world."
