Chapter 009: Unspoken Difficulties

Zhou Yang originally thought this person was Hu Gongming's son, Director Hu. However, after a glance, he noticed that this individual had well-defined features and a presumably good heart, but unfortunately, there was a hint of frustration and unfulfillment in his expression.

"What Director Hu? It was our Director Hu who called us..." The tall police officer blurted out, realizing he had let something slip, and quickly covered up by saying, "Our Director Hu took this case very seriously after hearing about it. If you are wise, confess early to avoid physical suffering!"

At this point, Chen Yu can no longer hide his emotions

Director Hu? Could it be the son of Deputy Director Hu Gongming from the Public Security Bureau? Zhou Yang blinked and suddenly asked, "Is Director Hu the son of Director Hu?"

The two police officers, seeing that Zhou Yang refused to admit anything and considering that he was a student, decided not to act rashly and chose to ignore him, planning to address the matter again the following day.

"Hahaha, do you know Secretary Li?" the tall police officer mocked, "You might as well say you know the Premier of the State Council and the President of the country; the key point is whether they know you!"

In the past, Zhou Yang assisted Li Xinmin in relocating his ancestral grave, allowing Li Xinmin and his brother to overcome a calamity. Li Xinmin once stated that if there was anything he could help with, he should not hesitate to ask, and he would do his utmost to assist as long as it was within his capabilities

It is evident that the two of them do not believe at all that this rural student in front of them could possibly know the esteemed county party secretary, Li Xinmin. In their view, not only themselves, but even their director Hu does not have the qualifications to meet the county party secretary, let alone a rural child.

Zhou Yang smiled and shook his head: "If Li Xinmin knew I was here, he would likely come over in person"

Zhou Yang sat down calmly, while the officer pulled a chair from behind the desk and sat down next to Zhou Yang

Hmph, Comrade Police Officer, you must know that I am wronged. If it was Director Hu's son who suppressed this matter, you need not fear him. Zhou Yang has thought through the intricacies of the situation and has become completely calm. I know Li Xinmin, the County Party Secretary Li Xinmin

After all, this private matter is absolutely known to no one else besides myself and my wife

The officer furrowed his brow slightly upon hearing Zhou Yang's words, then slowly pointed to a chair and said, "Young man, why don't you sit down and have a chat?"

"Oh? How did you know that my father is ill?" the officer asked curiously. His father had suffered a sudden stroke the day before yesterday, and this matter was not known to anyone else in the station. How did this young man find out?

Chen Yu hesitated, saying, "If you truly possess the ability to read faces, then please observe me once more."

"Indeed, how did you know? Ahem, I must say, young student, you shouldn't worry so much. The only correct way out for you is to confess early. If you wait until Director Hu questions you about this tomorrow, he has quite a temper!" the tall policeman threatened.

At this thought, Zhou Yang could not help but reveal a cold smile at the corner of his mouth: Hmph, such public revenge and turning black into white, Hu Gongming, this director of the Public Security Bureau, is probably at the end of his career!

The next morning, a police officer in his thirties approached Zhou Yang and said, "Young man, go wash your face and have something to eat!"

Chen Yu was greatly moved by Zhou Yang's words, yet on the surface, he remained calm and composed. He deliberately downplayed the situation, saying: "Hehe, for someone like a *tushuren* who is middle-aged, with elderly parents above and young children below, it is inevitable to encounter some difficulties. This is something that no one can avoid."

"Have you heard of the name of Secretary Li from the county committee? If that's the case, then I also know the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan!" The police officer responsible for taking notes also wore a look of disdain on his face

But there is one thing you should be clear about; the situation I just mentioned cannot be inquired about, and it should not be mistaken!" Zhou Yang said confidently

"Hehe, you still haven't told me who you are?" Zhou Yang knew that the other party had already fallen into the trap, and he felt even more relaxed.

"Hehe, you really know how to boast, young man. Those fortune-telling practices are all superstitions, just tricks to deceive people!" Chen Yu said with a smile, shaking his head, not believing Zhou Yang's words

It is like this: descendants are like branches and leaves, while elders are like tree roots. The leaves may turn yellow but do not wither, and the roots remain unharmed. Looking at your situation, Officer, one can naturally understand your father's condition. Zhou Yang said very calmly, "Moreover, from your facial features, I believe that you, Officer, are likely facing obstacles in your career and have concerns about your future."

Although this action is minor, Zhou Yangfei from www.hetushu.com is often happy, which indicates that this officer does not regard him as a criminal suspect in a condescending manner, but rather engages in conversation with him on equal terms

Zhou Yang observed the anxious demeanor of the tall police officer, and upon reflecting on how he had refused to listen to Zhou Yang's explanations from the very beginning, insisting only that Zhou Yang admit his fault, Zhou Yang suddenly realized the situation.

Zhou Yang glanced at the two of them, noticing a faint aura of misfortune around their foreheads and brows. He realized that seeking their help would be of no use, so he decided not to waste any more words.

Fortunately, it was the transition from late spring to early summer, and Zhou Yang had slept on the table for an entire night

It is well known that recognizing acquaintances is Zhou Yang's forte, so he regarded the other party as an upright person. Therefore, he fixed his gaze on him and said earnestly: "I say, Officer, your father's illness should not be a cause for great concern; you need not worry about it at all"

Zhou Yang observed that Deputy Director Chen was quite shrewd and experienced, reluctant to speak directly and often beating around the bush. Therefore, he had to clarify further: "Director Chen, do not think that what I just said was ambiguous or evasive. Let me be clear: Director Chen, you must have been suffering from erectile dysfunction for nearly six months now, right"

At this point, Zhou Yang suddenly calmed down: "It was Director Hu www.hetushu.com that instructed you to do this, wasn't it?"

Without a doubt, this is certainly the suggestion of Zhu Gang's uncle, the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, instructing the police below to act in this manner, not only to absolve his nephew of responsibility but also to vent his frustrations

"Alright," Zhou Yang scrutinized Chen Yu once more and then said, "I observe that Director Chen must have some unspoken difficulties, the kind that men often face!"

He has now been promoted to the position of County Party Secretary, and moreover, he is indeed wronged. He will certainly resolve this issue for himself

Young man, how did you know about my situation? Who told you?

My name is Chen Yu, and I am the deputy director here," Chen Yu said calmly. "Young man, now you can tell me who you heard this from, right?

Your circumstances, apart from you and your family, I believe no one else knows about. I have no place to inquire, and moreover, I did not know you before this!" Zhou Yang said very solemnly, "However, I can observe appearances and can discern your fortunes, misfortunes, and future prospects in your career!"

"Hahaha, Secretary Li personally came to take you out?" The two police officers laughed until tears streamed down their faces, "Little guy, you should take a look in the mirror..."
