2454 He wanted to keep his trump card to deal with her
You Yi frowned. It seemed like he was overthinking things.
It was said that Mayor Zhang and Xia Anlan had a good personal relationship. If he said that, then it must be true.
Previously, he had been wondering if Qiu Yun had anything to do with the Xia family. At that time, he had been nervous for a long time. If it was really related to Xia Anlan, he would definitely have a hard time later on if they acknowledged each other as family.
Hearing Mayor Zhang say this, you Yi's heart relaxed a little.
"You're right ..."He smiled.
Mayor Zhang continued,"however, the Xia family does have an adopted daughter. Heh, not exactly an adopted daughter. Anyway, she's in an awkward position. She's not a member of the Xia family, so she can't learn the nobility of the Xia family no matter how hard she tries. Mayor Xia doesn't even want to mention this woman. You can imagine how much he hates her."
You Yi knew that he was talking about Xia rushuang. He nodded."Yes, indeed."
You Yi had already found out what he wanted to know, so he changed the topic.
After a while, the meeting officially began. The two of them ended their gossip and started to get serious.
……
The meeting ended. You Yi was still thinking about Xia rushuang on his way home.
He was also well aware that without evidence, Xia rushuang would be released soon.
However, he would not let her off so easily.
You Yi made a phone call."Get hai city's police station to let the you family know that there's something going on between Xia rushuang and master Dao."
"Do you want to show them the photos?"
"No need. Let them be suspicious first. I'll have use for the evidence later."
You Yi knew better than anyone what kind of people his parents were. He only needed to plant the seeds of suspicion in their hearts. Even if Xia rushuang returned home, she would not have it easy.
As for why he didn't show the photo to his parents immediately, he naturally wanted to keep such a powerful trump card until he returned home during Mid-Autumn.
It was not a good thing to use it too early.
……
City B, mayor's office.
"Mayor, Xia rushuang still refuses to admit it. What's her purpose in finding people? Besides, the police said that they didn't have any concrete evidence to prove that she was involved in master Dao's crimes. After interrogating a few of master Dao's men, they said that Xia rushuang really didn't explicitly say that she wanted to kill that person. Later on, they received orders from master Dao, so they should release her once the time was up. "
Xia Anlan was extremely busy at the moment. Master Dao's case involved too many people. Many cities along the coast were involved, including the sea city Police Chief, the local taxation Bureau, the customs bureau, and many other officials. Now, most of them had been arrested and brought to justice, and the case was still in the process of being tried. In comparison, Xia rushuang's case was almost nothing.
He had just received a call from a high-ranking official from the province who wanted to plead for leniency on behalf of chief Wang of the police station. He was using both soft and hard tactics on him. Naturally, Xia Anlan tactfully kicked the ball to the top. However, he knew that this matter was not over yet. There would be a lot of phone calls in the future. Officials had their own social circles, and the so-called social circles were a network of connections. It was like the butterfly effect. If you touched one, the other would not be able to sit still.
The most important thing for Xia Anlan to do now was to quickly settle the matters at hand and then make a trip to the capital as soon as possible. After meeting the President, he would report the situation here truthfully and ask him for more authority to handle these matters.
