The Blind Lover

Du Ming sat in the conference room, listening to his subordinates report on the progress of the case. His expression was solemn, even the new policemen did not dare to breathe loudly.

“Chief Du, this is the current situation. The arrangements have been made,” the captain of the Criminal Investigation Unit reported respectfully.

Du Ming nodded and praised, “Well done.”

The door to the meeting room was pushed open from outside.

The white-haired director walked in with his hands behind his back.

Du Ming was slightly surprised. He did not stand up to welcome him. He just bowed and said, “Director Li? What is it? Is there something wrong? We are having a case analysis meeting.”

Du Ming had no respects for the director. After all, the position would soon be his, one day.

Director Li walked to his side.

Du Ming was forced to stand. He could not embarrass his superior in front of his subordinates.

He was a little taller than Director Li. If he stood up, Director Li would’ve to look up to him too.

He felt delighted.

Director Li, however, smiled amiably. “Chief Du, two gentlemen in the hall wants to see you. There’s something they want to know from you.”

Du Ming shifted his chair and walked out. “How can I help the gentlemen?”

It was normal for the leaders to make surprise visits. Although they would liaise with the director, with Du Ming taking all the glory these past two years, he overshadowed the director. The tasks given to the director became his responsibilities instead.

Du Ming was used to it, from the initial flattery to his current impartialness.

Director Li shook his head. “I’m not sure. You can ask him yourself.”

Du Ming sneered in his heart. The director was a person to evade responsibilities; he would have to replace him as quickly as he could.

He strode out of the door.

The meeting room door was closed on him, and in front of him stood two teams of armed special police.

His heart skipped a beat. He predicted that something bad would happen, but it was already too late.

A pair of cold handcuffs were placed on his hands. Before he could resist, two SWAT officers had already pressed themselves against him.

“What is the meaning of this? Who are you? I want to see the Director!” Du Ming resisted.

The SWAT captain raised his hand and said calmly, “Chief Du, I will bring you to see the director now.”

“Let go of me. Who are you people? Why are you arresting me?” Du Ming spoke confidently. He knew the benefits and importance of being confident.

No one replied.

They were just following orders. Even if they knew the reason, they would not waste their breath on him.

Du Ming was dragged into a car and brought to an unfamiliar place. The director was waiting for him.

However, it was not a casual conversation, but a confrontation between the police and criminals.

Du Ming was shocked. “Director, what’s going on? Did I make a mistake?”

The director looked at the person right in front of him.

“Du Ming, do you still remember Qin Sheng?”

Du Ming was stunned.

The Director saw his reaction.

“You were good brothers once!” The director reminded him.

Du Ming’s face turned pale and he forced a smile. “Yes, you remembered it clearly.”

The director nodded. “I heard that he met a grisly end; you were there to collect his body?”

Du Ming’s brain was working rapidly.

What was the meaning of this? Bringing up Qin Sheng now?

He hesitated and nodded. “Yes, Director. This was more than ten years ago.”

The director nodded. “Yes, more than ten years have passed. Some people have already turned to dust while some soared.”

Du Ming looked at the director in confusion.

The director looked at him and said calmly, “Du Ming, we received a report that you were related to the incident with Qin Sheng back then. He betrayed the organization with a premeditated plan. There were still many hidden stakes left in our organization back then.”

Du Ming’s pupils constricted. “No, Wang Ting, Qin Sheng and I are only comrades-in-arms. I don’t know anything else. I was also arranged by the organization to help him collect his body. These are all recorded in the records. I was just following orders.”

He did not understand what was going on with Wang Ting, which side was he on?

Wang Ting smiled slightly. “I’m not interested in those words. What I want to know are those that are not recorded.”

He looked at Du Ming, and Du Ming looked back at him.

The two of them remained in silence.

Du Ming was sweating.

Finally, Wang Ting smiled. “Do you still remember the girl Called Qin Yu? I heard that she is Qin Sheng’s daughter.”

Du Ming did not understand and looked at Wang Ting in confusion.

Wang Ting stared sharply at Du Ming. “Didn’t you try to get close to her at the banquet? If it wasn’t because of Qin Sheng, why would you pay attention to his daughter? Or is there another reason for you to pay attention to her? That girl is not mentally sound, isn’t she?”
