Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Chapter 55: Open Strife and Secret Struggle


Fei came to find Lin Miaoke, which means that the show put on last night might very well be exposed. Anyway, there's no point worrying about it now, because Xiaofan knows that Lin Miaoke is a good cop, dedicated and responsible to her career, and since she's the one handling this matter, finding her is the best solution.

"Last night Xiaofan lied to us, saying you were his girlfriend, but after mishaps happened at several other venues at the same time, he finally confessed to us that you're a police officer." At this moment, Fei had come sincerely seeking her help, so his tone was not as shaky and uneasy as last night.

"Did you do anything to Xiaofan?" Lin Miaoke was still concerned about the guy who helped her last night.

"Rest assured, if we'd done anything to him, we wouldn't have come to find you." Fei continued.

"We're not the same kind of people, I won't help you gangsters." Lin Miaoke said firmly.

This didn't come as a surprise to Fei, it was exactly as Xiaofan had predicted. Yes, at the start, a refusal from her was very likely. Next, it was up to Fei to persistently plead.

"We really aren't the same, but we have a common goal. You want to investigate drugs, and right now our venues have been harmed terribly by this stuff. And we can help you find more clues, even to capture the mastermind in one fell swoop." Fei spoke calmly.

"Why are you doing this?" Hearing this, Lin Miaoke seemed genuinely intrigued: "Why should I believe you? Were the drugs found in your venue last night fake?"

"Helping you equals helping ourselves. If you can catch the mastermind, it would clear our name. Xiaofan said, you're an excellent police officer, so that's why we believed him and came to you for help."

"Get in the car; let's find somewhere quiet to talk."

Lin Miaoke compromised. To be honest, she had been troubled over this matter without any clue. However, her curiosity about Ye Xiaofan began to grow.

Clearly just a high school student working a part-time job, why would these gangsters follow his words so obediently?

The plan continued to unfold without any changes according to Xiaofan's thought process.

That night, the news of Ouyang Xiong's venues closing for rest reached Lei Hu first.

This made Lei Hu overjoyed. He immediately gathered his trusted brothers to have a good time.

"Brother Hu, now that Ouyang Xiong must be furious to the point of vomiting blood, too scared to open his doors. Is he going to remain a turtle hiding in its shell?"

"Hahaha, what I'm thinking now is, Ouyang Xiong must have figured out that we're behind this, but he just can't do anything about it. Just thinking about that frustrated look on his face, man, I feel great." Lei Hu laughed mischievously.

"But Brother Hu, now that they've closed, we can't do anything to them; what should we do?" a subordinate asked.

"Stupid! With them closed, all that business has to come to us. Besides, if they dare open their doors again, we'll have the police seal their venues, and see how long Ouyang Xiong can hold out."

Lei Hu's plan seemed to work just perfectly. But it's a pity he calculated everything except for the fact that Ye Xiaofan was now by Ouyang Xiong's side.

At this moment, Xiaofan's plan was being implemented at an accelerated pace. Lei Hu probably never imagined that after more than a decade in the criminal world, he would end up being defeated by a fledgling high school student.

The next evening, Ouyang Xiong's venues reopened. Afraid Lei Hu wouldn't notice, at precisely eight o'clock, all the reopening venues hung a long string of firecrackers at their doors. Ouyang Xiong, following Xiaofan's advice, lit the firecrackers, challenging Lei Hu.

Sure enough, Lei Hu fell for it. Upon learning that Ouyang Xiong had opened up again, he immediately instructed his men to carry out their previous frame-up plan, bringing drugs like ******, ****** to various venues and hiding them in inconspicuous places.

Shortly after, the police arrived twenty minutes later. They quickly found the drugs. All of this was, of course, orchestrated. Four venues, almost simultaneously raided. Those in charge of the venues were also taken away in police cars.

On the fourth floor of the Star Moon Bar, Ouyang Xiong and his few remaining trusted men were anxiously waiting. Even though the current situation was exactly as Xiaofan's plan, Ouyang Xiong only now realized how big his gamble was this time.

But there's treasure in risk; Ouyang Xiong understood this truth.

"Why hasn't Fei returned yet?" The waiting made Ouyang Xiong genuinely afraid something might go wrong.

Just as Ouyang Xiong finished speaking, a sweat-soaked Fei burst into the office.

"How'd it go, Fei?"

Everyone in the room turned their eyes toward him, even the typically calm Xiaofan couldn't help but stand up nervously.

"Phew, got it. Here it is."

It turned out, Fei specifically went to the sealed venues to retrieve the memory from the secretly-installed cameras.

The installation of the cameras was particularly noted by Xiaofan. So when Fei and his guys did it, they were extra cautious. They spent over a hundred thousand on more than thirty cameras. This wasn't child's play. Even though Xiaofan gave Li Kuo a heads-up, Li Kuo could only manage to get them a 20% discount through connections. Nearly five thousand per camera!

"What are you all staring at? Pull the content onto the computer. Everyone watches together, hurry up, hurry up." Xiaofan, seeing everyone standing still, quickly called out.

At his command, everyone scrambled to open the computer. Loaded the memory, then reviewed the footage from where the police found the 'goods'.

"Ah, here, got it, damn it, this bastard kid. Caught him red-handed, didn't I?" Soon Fei found the first person who framed them.

Soon after, the framed scenes from all venues were revealed.

"Make three or four copies. Bro, we might need you to make another trip. Go find Lin Miaoke, right now. Give her one of the copies. Pass along a message: Don't alert them prematurely, control those officers who found the goods right on entry. In a few days, there'll be a big gift for her."

"Got it." Fei said excitedly.

Now, the only venue left was the Star Moon Bar. But after finding the evidence, everyone saw hope, this tactic of surviving from a dead end, even ten years later if Ouyang Xiong looked back, he couldn't help but sigh at Xiaofan this kid being a genius indeed.

"Hey, bro, take some good smokes with you."

"Huh? That female cop smokes too?" Fei asked in surprise.

"No, the brothers locked up might have to stay in there a few more days, can't let them suffer, can we? Besides, we've found so much evidence for Lin Miaoke, surely she'll help us with this small favor. But, remember, do not alert the snake; if she wants to catch the mastermind behind the drugs, she must listen to me." Xiaofan said seriously.

"Alright, I've got it. I'll head out now."

"Stay safe on the way."
