After the meeting ended, everyone left with their own thoughts. This meeting had caused a huge disruption to the original tone of the investigation.
Old Zhang walked out of the meeting room. He took out his phone and prepared to call Lawyer An. It seemed that there was no need for him to appear in court for the Old Master’s case.
Just as he took out his phone, a woman’s voice came from behind him.
“Captain Wu, thank you for the clues provided by the entire city police department.”
“Officer Chen, there’s no need to say thank you. This is our duty.”
Officer Chen looked at Zhang Yanfeng and suddenly smiled.
This smile made Zhang Yanfeng feel as if his entire body had been seen through. As an old police officer, he was usually the only one who could see through others like this. How could it be his turn to be seen through?
“I will stay in Tongcheng for a while to follow up on the other details of this case. When the time comes, we can exchange more information.”
“It’s my duty. Officer Chen, you can return to your work.”
Higher rank than me, more arrogant than me. He remembered how she had mercilessly scolded several bureau chiefs for questioning in the meeting room.
Even Old Zhang felt a little weak in front of this female police officer. Especially that pair of eyes of hers… Old Zhang did not dare to look her in the eye.
Officer Chen left. Zhang Yanfeng let out a long sigh of relief as he watched her walk away.
“Captain Wu, shall we have lunch together?” Xiao Cao walked over at that moment and asked.
The case had been overturned. Xiao Cao, who was involved in this matter, felt a sense of honor.
“Uh, forget it. I still have something to do.” Old Zhang refused.
“Something to do? Oh, I know. You must be having dinner with Officer Chen, right? I heard that Officer Chen is still single.”
“Are you okay? That’s not true.”
“Huh? No? I’ve seen your resume, Captain Wu. I remember that you and Officer Chen were classmates in the police academy. You were assigned to the same police station in the beginning. The two of you are old acquaintances. It’s normal for you to meet for dinner.”
“Don’t worry, we won’t gossip. Such a powerful female boss. If you can take her down, we’ll feel proud too.”
Old Zhang thought to himself, ‘This is bad.’
He was classmates with that woman? Does he even have colleagues at the lower level?
Then he thought about how sharp that woman was when she was presenting the case on stage. The way she looked at him just now, would he be discovered?
Zhang Yanfeng had already spent a lot of time familiarizing himself with the life of this body. However, how could he remember such remote things as his old classmates and old colleagues?
He waved his hand and chased the gossipy Little Cao away. Old Zhang walked to the parking lot and sat in the car.
Old Zhang was no longer flustered after starting the car.
What’s the big deal? I didn’t do anything wrong. Besides, I’m the current Captain Wu no matter what!
“Ah!”
Old Zhang threw out the cigarette in his hand. Forget it. I should go back to the bookstore and tell them about this…
“What? The Old Priest might be dismissed?”
Zhou Ze, who was sitting on the sofa, was surprised.
His bookstore had been busy trying to save the Old Priest. In the end, the plot suddenly twisted. He suddenly felt that it was a great loss. No matter what, the Old Priest wouldn’t die. After all the trouble, there was a high chance that he would be able to openly go out and continue to comfort his fallen woman in the future.
“In short, it’s a good thing.” Lawyer An smiled and pointed at Bai Yingying beside him.
“Bai Yingying, there are still tens of thousands of yuen in that card. You can use it to buy some more coffee. Remember, it must taste the same as the last batch. Don’t use inferior things to fool me!”
Yingying picked up the bank card and nodded seriously.
At this moment, a white furry thing crawled out from under Zhou Ze’s feet. It jumped into Zhou Ze’s arms and gently rubbed its head against his chest. It stuck out its tongue and licked it.
Zhou Ze grabbed the White Fox’s neck and asked, “Why did this fox come back?”
Damn it, it’s still a fox that knows how to flirt. When you turn back into a human, who else can stand you?
“She came with Wang Ke,” Lawyer An explained.
The Fox looked at Zhou Ze with a pleading face. She seemed to know something, so she deliberately tried to please Zhou Ze. She saw the monkey in the study when she came back and knew that the monkey had taken a lot of supplements during her absence!
‘We are all demons. How can you be so biased!’
“Have you sent your pickled cabbage back to Hell?” Zhou Ze asked.
“It’s Cuihua.”
“Well, have you sent it down?”
“No, I was just waiting for her.” Lawyer An pointed at the White Fox that Zhou Ze was holding.
The White Fox glanced at Lawyer An in a flattering manner. Lawyer An responded with a look.
In Zhou Ze’s opinion, this shameless couple had just reached an extremely dirty deal with just one look!
“I think that the furry look is still the best. It’s so unique. It’s not as unique after turning back into a human.”
The White Fox looked at Zhou Ze in horror.
Cultivation was not easy for them. They had been knocked out of their human form and restored to their original form. It was great torture and pain. It was like a rich man suddenly being penniless and wanting to beg for food. This was enough to drive people crazy.
Then, Zhou Ze smiled again. He placed the White Fox on the coffee table and pointed at Lawyer An, “Go and find Cuihua.”
Lawyer An nodded. He picked up the White Fox and walked upstairs.
Zhou Ze picked up the teacup and took a sip. He asked Bai Yingying beside him, “Where’s Old Zhang? Wasn’t he here just now?”
“I think he left again after answering a call.”
“He’s really busy.”
Zhou Ze took out a cigarette, and Bai Yingying immediately lit it for him.
“Boss, many people say that smoking is harmful to your health.”
“So, what do you want to say?”
“Bai Yingying, let me buy you some more expensive cigarettes.”
“Oh, okay.”
“Boss, Boss!!!”
At this moment, a huge figure ran past the glass window. A heavily shaking figure with unfathomable cleavage appeared in terrifying panic.
“Bang!”
The door of the bookstore was pushed open. Fangfang stood at the door like a mountain of meat.
“What’s wrong?” Zhou Ze asked.
Fangfang was wearing black stockings under her white nurse uniform today. This scene was a little eye-piercing.
“Boss, there’s a patient who fainted on the pedestrian street. The security guards nearby sent him to our pharmacy.”
“Fainted? Heatstroke?”
“I think so.”
“Then, give him some agarwood vital energy solution and hang some saline or something.”
Zhou Ze was a little puzzled. It was such a small problem. Didn’t the pharmacy hire two young doctors? They shouldn’t have any problems dealing with such a small matter. Why was Fangfang so flustered?
“No, no.” Fangfang shook her head and continued, “When we were examining the patient, we found that the patient had a lot of injuries on her body.”
“A construction worker nearby?” Zhou Ze asked.
It was very normal for construction workers to have injuries on their bodies. Many people had bruises all over their bodies after a project. That was why they said that they earned money through hard work.
“No… No!” Fangfang continued to shake her head.
She finally calmed down and said, “It’s a child. An eight-year-old little girl!”
…
When he saw this little girl, Zhou Ze was initially attracted by her exquisite appearance. It was a lovely little girl.
Zhou Ze gestured for the two doctors to move out of the way and lifted the girl’s coat to examine. Then, he saw it.
There were nasty wounds on the girl. She was bruised and had cigarette burns. She appeared to be scalded by boiling water and cut by a sharp weapon. There was even a needle stitch.
She had a face like an angel with unbearable darkness under her clothes.
“Boss, feel here.” A doctor reminded Zhou Ze to feel the girl’s arm.
Zhou Ze reached out and touched it. His gaze immediately changed.
“Flashlight.”
The doctor next to him immediately took the flashlight and carefully shone it. Under the skin and flesh of the girl’s arm, there was a needle hidden!
It was the kind of small needle used at home.
Zhou Ze gestured to the nurse who was as thin as a pole to help him change into his scrubs and said, “Let’s do an operation first to treat the girl’s wounds and remove the needle. Oh right, tell Fangfang to call the police and look for her family.”
She should not be a kidnapped child because her clothes were branded. There was a high possibility that domestic abuse was involved.
In his previous life, Zhou Ze had an emergency case when he was a doctor. A little boy was stabbed four or five times and sent to the hospital. The resuscitation was ineffective. When he left the operating theater, Zhou Ze heard his colleagues talking about this matter. Zhou Ze found out that the murderer was none other than the child’s mother.
The mother was later sent to a mental hospital.
The surgery was not that difficult. Zhou Ze was in charge of taking out the needles. The two doctors were in charge of treating the other wounds. As a result, they did not carry out anesthetic injections.
Eight needles were taken out of the two arms.
Zhou Ze had just raised his head and was about to drink a glass of water. The last needle was just taken out. Suddenly, he realized that the child had already woken up. Her eyes were open. She was looking at herself.
“It’s alright. The needle has been removed.”
Zhou Ze smiled at the child.
The girl turned her head away and replied in a very numb voice, “Daddy will put it in again.”
