Chapter 275 You have helped me so much, please help me again
Li Shan did not answer directly. He hesitated for a moment and made a hissing gesture to Hou Wendong. Then he took out his mobile phone, dialed a number and turned on the speaker.
The waiting tone of "beep beep" came from the receiver, and every sound seemed to beat Hou Wendong's heart.
The waiting time was extremely long, and every passing second amplified Hou Wendong's fear. The torment even exceeded the week he had been tortured.
The phone was connected, and a man's mellow voice came out: "Hello, Captain Li."
Hou Wendong's eyes opened angrily, and he immediately recognized this familiar voice.
Li Shan glanced at Hou Wendong, took a deep breath and said: "Secretary Du, I have some good news for you. I have found Secretary Hou."
The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly became urgent: "What, when was he found? Where is he?"
Li Shan replied: "Just now, we found Secretary Hou in an abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of the city. He is still alive."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, and then asked: "But this week's search and rescue has still produced no results. Hasn't the operation been declared a failure? How did you..."
Li Shan sighed softly and said:
"Yes, although Li Xiuwan provided the truth, we have never found anyone in the several places where her ex-husband might be hiding.
Li Xiuwan didn’t look like she was lying, and the search and rescue operation had to be temporarily suspended. However, just now, I unexpectedly received a tip..."
On the other end of the phone, Du Ziteng was woken up late at night, and his already bad mood became even more irritable now.
He sat up suddenly from the bed, gritted his gums, and asked word for word: "Information report?"
The suppressed anger in his tone seemed to follow the phone line, making the temperature in the entire warehouse seem to drop a few degrees.
Li Shan's eyes fell on Hou Wendong's biting lips again, and he explained calmly:
"This is a message from the gang below. We have received a lot of similar intelligence this week. I almost didn't hold out any hope. I just took Chang Erbing over for a routine check. Unexpectedly..."
Li Shan paused slightly, and his voice became faint and deep:
"In the end, we really found Secretary Hou. The situation was extremely critical at that time. Er Bing and I didn't have time to report to the bureau, so we had to take action immediately. Fortunately, the result was good. We subdued the gangster and rescued Secretary Hou."< br>
Du Ziteng's face was ashen. He had criticized Li Shan with words before. He didn't believe that Li Shan had the magical ability to solve the case and would not understand his hint.
"So, Li Sheng is deliberately confirming with himself again and letting himself accept his love?" Du Ziteng frowned and thought secretly in his heart.
Du Ziteng could understand Li Sheng's concerns, but he was still a little annoyed. This style of doing things was called cautious at best, but exposed the petty spirit of the other party at worst.
There was a brief silence on the phone.
Li Cheng and Chang Erbing looked at each other, with a hidden look in their eyes. Hou Wendong didn't notice this. His ears were perked up, all his attention was on the phone, and his lips were bitten by him.
After a long time, a response came from the phone, the voice was unusually low:
"So, after you rescued Secretary Hou, you reported directly to me, without even bothering to notify others, is that right?"
Li Sheng replied without hesitation: "Yes, Secretary Du, I called you immediately the moment I rescued Secretary Hou."
The voice on the other end of the phone became deeper and deeper, with a hint of indescribable weirdness in it: "So, there are only you and Chang Erbing on the scene now, right?"
Li Shan took a deep breath and said firmly: "That's true, Secretary Du."
On the other end of the phone, Du Ziteng climbed out of the warm bed and stepped naked on the cold tiles.
The room was a bit cold, and goosebumps appeared on his body. He slowly squatted down and hid his entire face in his knees.
He listened to the phone in a low voice, with a subtle tremor in his voice:
"Captain Li, I'm very happy that you were able to solve this case. I will definitely take credit from the congressman for you. I think that with Captain Li's ability, being the chief of the patrol room is more than enough. Therefore, Captain Li can't forget that he was sitting in that room that day. On the chair, promise me something.”
Li Shan deliberately remained silent for three seconds. These three seconds made Secretary Du extremely tormented, and made Secretary Hou spend a second like a year.
Three seconds later, Li Cheng asked uncertainly: "You want me to kill Secretary Hou, right?"
Du Ziteng felt even more uncomfortable when he heard Li Shan's straightforward question, but at this moment, his reason was already ignited by ambition, and he couldn't care less.
Du Ziteng was shocked by Li Sheng's direct question and felt a little unhappy, but at this moment, his ambition was like a raging fire, swallowing up his reason.

He raised his head suddenly and revealed his face from the cover of his knees. His face soaked in cold sweat was full of gloom and cruelty. His voice was cold and decisive, and came from the microphone:
"Captain Li, you will be in charge of the patrol room in the future, how can you be so careless in your words? Secretary Hou was clearly tortured to death by the gangsters. Captain Li, you were just a little late."
When Hou Wendong heard this, he completely lost control of his emotions, and his voice became sharp and harsh because of anger and despair:
"Du Ziteng, you despicable and shameless villain, have you forgotten who brought you into the secretarial team? It was me, Hou Wendong, who promoted you to the position. I have helped you so much, you..."
< br>
On the other end of the phone, Du Ziteng's fingers were clenching the phone tightly, his knuckles turning white from the exertion. He did not respond to Hou Wendong's curse, but waited silently.
After a few seconds of silence, Li Shan's quiet voice came from the phone:
"Secretary Du, do you have anything else to say to Secretary Hou?"
Du Ziteng didn't have much to say at first, but when Li Sheng asked him, he couldn't help but sigh and said slowly into the microphone:
"Secretary Hou, I know you have helped me a lot, so please help me one last time. I guarantee that I, Du Ziteng, will always be grateful for your kindness to me."
Hou Wendong wanted to curse some more, but Li Ye grabbed his throat again, and he could only let out a violent gasping sound, which was full of despair and unwillingness.
Du Ziteng listened to the struggling gasps coming from the phone, and said with a bit of unbearability: "Captain Li, Secretary Hou is afraid of pain, please let him go peacefully."
Li Shan spoke into the phone with a cold and powerful voice: "Okay, Secretary Du, please forgive me."
Hearing the word "sorrow", Du Ziteng couldn't bear to listen to Secretary Hou's gasping for breath before he died. He was afraid that his conscience would be too tortured and he would have nightmares when he fell asleep.
Du Ziteng hung up the phone and collapsed on the cold tiles as if exhausted, with layers of trembling goosebumps rising on his delicate skin.
His throat first burst out intermittently with suppressed and low laughter, like crying, but it soon gradually turned into unbridled and maniacal laughter.
