Chapter 118: Chapter 118: When Heaven Brings Disasters, Man Brings Calamity! Chapter 118: Chapter 118: When Heaven Brings Disasters, Man Brings Calamity! From start to finish, Qiao Qingyu watched the scene before her calmly, while He Xiuwen stood in the yard with his hands clasped behind his back, his posture erect. He remained silent throughout, but the murderous aura emanating from the two team mbers behind him was not to be underestimated.
He Xiuwen frowned slightly, but with a hint of curiosity, he glanced at Qiao Qingyu. This was the sister-in-law his younger brother had brought to the Northwest from the Qiao Family Team.
Rongrong was very fond of her.
Whatever Qiao Qingyu had done for Rongrong, his brother had told him.
He was very grateful to Qiao Qingyu.
Especially since, based on a re suspicion, she had risked her life to rescue his daughter from the human traffickers.
Had it been just a few hours later, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
Because those people were a group of inhuman beasts.
As the special task force, they too would carry out such missions, so pursuing Old Mountain Eagle was also one of his duties.
Moreover, it was this year’s main mission.
As the remote controller for Shangpo Village and Lu Guilian’s group, Old Mountain Eagle might have already escaped or could still be lurking at their base or elsewhere.
This was a mysterious and powerful espionage leader.
Nobody knew whether they were male or female.
So even now, Old Mountain Eagle had not been caught, and they naturally wouldn’t overlook any clues.
Although Zhao Daju had said those words, she might not be Old Mountain Eagle, but he didn’t mind helping Qiao Qingyu clean up the people here.
He turned to the deputy director and said, “Old Ning, we won’t wrong a good person, but will certainly not spare a bad one, especially a spy. I will send so team mbers to work with your team at the Qiao Family Team. Take the people back and proceed with the interrogation imdiately.”
His voice was neither loud nor soft, loud enough for everyone in the yard to hear, as the yard had quieted down considerably since the arrival of the public security officers.
At that mont, people were very sensitive, especially to the words “spy” and “espionage.”
Everyone looked toward Qiao Laos’s wife, and by then, a public security officer had already scaled the hedge wall, ready to also take Second Aunt Li away.
The people sent to the Zhu family and Accountant Zhang’s ho had also returned.
This was different from before dinner, as those few hadn’t paid any attention before dinner.
To be honest, even though Sun Dazhang had prestige in the village, in a village where everyone was either related or long-standing acquaintances, so had known Sun Dazhang since he was a child and naturally were very familiar with him, so these old ladies had dismissed it as unimportant.
But when the public security from the county town arrived, they dared not make a scene and obediently followed.
Accountant Zhang was on the verge of tears, his head dripping with sweat.
Filled with both anger and hatred.
And a sense of panic was rising within him; it seed this matter was no simple affair, it wasn’t just a bunch of old ladies gossiping anymore.
The issue had escalated to spies and espionage.
No one had even told him what was really going on.
Zhao Daju moved backward and shouted sharply, “Don’t touch , I’ve broken no law, what right do you have to arrest ?”
Then she even managed to scratch the public security officer closest to her. Luckily the young officer reacted quickly, or he would’ve ended up with a face full of scratches.
Indeed, she was the famously troubleso individual far and wide.
Captain Tang stepped forward, his voice cold as he asked, “Zhao Daju, I’ll ask you just one thing, did you or did you not say, ‘I am Old Mountain Eagle’?”
“I said it, so what if I did? I am Old Mountain Eagle, what can you do about it?”
Qiao Qingyu laughed.
They say that nature has its disasters, people have their misfortunes, and indeed, this saying made sense.
The deputy director’s voice was stern, “If that’s the case, take them away. If they resist, shoot them on the spot!”
With a swoosh, several gun barrels were pointed at Zhao Daju.
Zhao Daju collapsed to the ground all at once.
Qiao Laos fainted right away with a flip of his eyes.
…
The police sirens wailed as they took the four people away.
He Xiuwen stayed at the Qiao Family Team, and Sun Dazhang quickly had soone make food in the cafeteria, but He Xiuwen refused, driving to the outside of the village. Not long after, a truck arrived, and a dozen soldiers in military attire got off.
For a mont, the entire Qiao Family Team was silent.
However, the Qiao Zhiyuan household was bustling with noise.
Old Qiao and Granny Qiao surrounded Qiao Qingyu, examining her from every angle with eyes full of affection.
Perhaps people are drawn to what they lack; the Old Qiao Family had many sons but few daughters, especially ones as beautiful as Qiao Qingyu.
A few granddaughters-in-law did bear so little girls, yet none brought the sa delight as when Qiao Qingyu had first been born.
At this ti, the eldest of the Qiao family also hurried back, out of breath.
He had gone to the neighboring village to deliver grain to Qiao Zhicai and Han Xianglan.
The two villages were close, and on his return, he saw police cars and jeeps heading towards the Qiao Family Team from a distance. It gave him quite a shock. Although he knew there wouldn’t be any trouble at ho, since he was a mber of the Qiao Family Team, he ran all the way back.
Then he saw his sister, whom he hadn’t seen for over half a year, sitting in the yard.
There was a long table in the grandparents’ courtyard, topped with a bag of candy.
His two children sat beside Qiao Qingyu.
The kitchen was bustling, and the aroma of food wafted out. Qiao Zhiyuan saw him arrive and called out excitedly, “Genbao, co quickly, Qingyu is back. Oh, and there’s a lot to tell you.”
Before he even settled down, Qiao Zhiyuan told Qiao Genbao about the recent events. Qiao Genbao was so angry that his face turned red, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Honest people might not say much but feel a pent-up frustration inside.
They, the Qiao family, hadn’t offended anyone in the Qiao Family Team. So why, when his sister returned, did she beco the object of their mockery?
There was no need for a warm welco, but what right did they have to laugh and hurl insults? Who did they think they were? His little sister hadn’t done anything wrong; why did they feel entitled to gossip and point fingers?
Even a cornered rabbit will bite; although he was usually a quiet man, he was also stubborn.
Qiao Genbao grabbed an axe and headed for the door. It had been so long, and though he knew people gossiped about his family, no one had dared to say it to their face. This was just too much bullying.
Qiao Zhiyuan hadn’t expected Qiao Genbao to rush out with an axe, so he hurriedly intercepted him in a few big strides.
Qiao Qingyu also stood up, and Feifei and Doudou, who were sitting beside her, also stood up in fright.
Feifei was her niece, and Doudou was her nephew, both children of her eldest brother.
After the eldest brother started his own family, the Qiao family split up.
But the second brother didn’t want to leave and continued to live with Old Qiao and the rest.
Qiao Zhicai and Han Xianglan scrimped and saved to build a house.
But they truly didn’t have the ans to build a separate house for Qiao Genbao, so they also lived together, not far away, about a three-minute walk.
