Even after Su Bancheng heard that this case was already in Xu Bai’s hands, he still did not say anything. Xu Bai did not force him.
He was in no hurry.
In any case, he had already traded the case with Chen MO for twenty-five fines.
so…
Who was Zuo Lei?
What was he doing?
What was his motive?
Xu Bai believed that in front of his profession, all secrets and the truth of the matter would surface.
After Su Bancheng confirmed that Su Meng was not injured, or after hearing the name Zuo Lei, he had no intention of staying there any longer.
Xu Bai sent Su Bancheng and Su Meng to the entrance of the old factory community.
Su Meng turned around and bid farewell to Xu Bai. “Master, I’ll leave first. Thank you for celebrating my birthday.”
Xu Bai smiled.
Su Meng had already recovered from the small incident just now. It was just because of the sudden incident. Although Su Meng was also a professional law enforcement officer, she was still a young girl who had just turned 21.
Xu Bai reminded Su Meng when she got into the car.
“Where’s the thing? Don’t lose it.”
“Don’t worry, Master!”
Su Meng patted her bear and said with a smile, “I kept it very well. When they caught me, I didn’t lose it. This is a gift from Master.”
Seeing this, Xu Bai did not say anything else. He glanced at the car that drove over from the other side of the road and retracted his gaze. “Alright then, let’s go back early.”
Su Meng hummed and seemed to have thought of something.
“Master.”
“What happened?”
“Wait for me tomorrow. We’ll work on the case together.”
“You can come out tomorrow.”
Xu Bai answered Su Meng as usual.
Su Meng nodded and waved at Xu Bai obediently. She turned around and walked to the front passenger seat of the car. Then, she opened the door of the front passenger seat and got in.
Su Bancheng, who was sitting in the driver’s seat, looked at Su Meng, who had gotten into the car and closed the door. Then, he glanced at Xu Bai and nodded. Then, he stepped on the accelerator and drove away from the old factory community.
Xu Bai watched the car drive away. After the taillights disappeared from his sight, he retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked into the neighborhood.
An hour later.
Su Bancheng carried Su Meng and drove into the Su Manor, which was slowly opened on both sides of the iron gate.
Three minutes later.
The car stopped beside the fountain in front of the manor’s main building.
Su Ruyu, who was waiting at the door in her home clothes, crossed her arms and looked nervously at the parked car.
Su Meng unbuckled her seatbelt and got out of the passenger seat. “Mom.”
Su Ruyu saw Su Meng getting out of the car and quickly went forward to hug her. “Are you hurt, Mengmeng?”
Su Meng shook her head. “Don’t worry, Mom. I’m an agent after all. Besides,
Master is very protective of me. Uncle also checked me just now. I’m fine.”
Su Ruyu heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, let’s go and see Grandpa. After he finds out, he’s been waiting for you in the study.”
Su Meng nodded and said, “I happen to have something to discuss with Grandpa.”
“Then you go first.”
“Okay.”
Su Ruyu glanced at Su Meng, who had already entered the house, and then turned to look at Su Bancheng, who had gotten out of the driver’s seat.
“Brother?” “There’s nothing else. Go over first. I’ll make a call.”
“…Okay.”
Su Ruyu hesitated for a moment before nodding her head. She turned around and walked into the house.
Su Bancheng watched as his sister walked into the house. After lighting a cigarette for himself, he took out his phone from his pocket and called An Ya.
The call was picked up not long after.
An Ya’s voice came from the phone. His voice was as cold as ever.
“Shoot.”
“You know?” “I just found out. You went over there. Who is it?”
“Zuo Lei!”
An Ya frowned.
“Zuo Lei?” “Yes.”
“Xu Bai knows too?”
“The case is in his hands. Do you think he doesn’t know?”
“The management of the old factory community…”
“He knows the agent from the 48th Precinct. He got the case into his hands.”
Su Bancheng listened to the indifferent voice on the phone and frowned. “We can’t let him investigate this case. Think of a way to transfer the case over.”
An Ya shook her head. “If he doesn’t want to hand over the case, you won’t get it no matter what.”
The jurisdiction of this case was in the old factory area. Although the old factory area was under the jurisdiction of the 48th Precinct, it was also a local case.
Since it was a local case, Feng City Police Department had priority.
According to normal procedures, if the Feng City Police Department didn’t want to hand over this case, the Federation’s law enforcement agencies wouldn’t be able to get it at all.
Still…
An Ya paused for a second and said, “Let me think of something.”
Su Bancheng thanked him.
Actually, there was nothing special about this case. Or rather, it was a shocking and unbelievable inside story.
However, because this case involved the Su family and even their reputation, it was best not to let outsiders investigate.
An Ya chuckled.
“Anything else?”
“What kind of things?”
“When I went over, Zuo Lei had already disappeared. Two Level 5 Martial
Apprentices died.”
An Ya understood what Su Bancheng meant.
“You mean…”
“Zuo Lei is a Level 3 Invigorated Meridian Realm transcendent martial artist. Since Xu Bai knows about Zuo Lei, it means that Zuo Lei also appeared there tonight. However, when I went over, I didn’t see Zuo Lei.”
“…I understand.”
After Su Bancheng heard this, he hung up the phone and put away his phone.
He opened the back seat of the car and took out his jacket. At this moment.
His body suddenly paused, and he could not help but sniffle.
What a fragrant medicinal scent.
Su Bancheng, who had been thinking about Zuo Lei’s matter and had not been distracted by anything else until now, suddenly smelled the medicinal fragrance that was still lingering in the car. ‘How could it be possible in my car…’
Mengmeng was still injured?
Su Bancheng’s expression tightened. He grabbed his coat and closed the car door. He quickly walked towards the main building and arrived at the study on the third floor in three steps.
Old Master Su’s hearty laughter came from the study.
At the same time, Su Meng’s voice could be heard.
Su Bancheng pushed open the door.
The first thing he saw was…
He was over 70 years old this year, but if one ignored his white beard, the head of the Su family, Old Master Su and Su Mingli, who looked to be in their fifties, were sitting on the sofa in a sky-blue robe. They smiled as they took the tea from Su Meng and drank it happily. Su Ruyu sat at the side, making tea.
“Dad.”
“Yeah.”
Su Mingli, who was talking to Su Meng with a smile on her face, saw Su Bancheng walk in and nodded. She said in a deep voice, “The security in Feng City is getting worse and worse now.”
He even dared to touch his most precious granddaughter.
Was he crazy?
Su Bancheng didn’t say that the attacker this time was Zuo Lei. He just nodded and said, “Homeland Security intends to carry out a special clean-up operation at the end of the year.”
What?
When did it happen on purpose?
Just now.
After he said this, Homeland Security was interested.
When Su Mingli heard this, he only nodded and did not express anything. However, from his slightly retracted expression, it could be seen that he was very supportive of this operation.
Su Bancheng looked at Su Meng. “Mengmeng, are you injured?”
Su Mingli, who was holding a teacup, quickly put it down and looked at her precious granddaughter.
Su Ruyu, who was making tea, raised her head and looked at her daughter, who clearly said that she was not injured.
Su Meng was stunned.
“Injured?”
“Right.”
“No, I’m not injured. Master protected me very well. Just as they kidnapped me,
Master saved me.”
It was just that the scene was a little scary.
A head exploded like a watermelon.
His chest felt like it was being pressed down by a jack.
Su Meng was not crying because she was kidnapped. She was actually crying because she saw the two of them die. However, after thinking about it, she was too embarrassed to say it, so she simply said that she was crying because she was kidnapped.
Please.
She was a professional law enforcement agent. How could she cry like an ordinary little girl just because she was kidnapped?
I only know how to cry!
Su Bancheng frowned.
“Then what’s with the medicinal fragrance in the car?”
“Medicinal fragrance… Right.”
Su Meng only remembered after being reminded. She lowered her head and took out the 100% Essence Replenishing Pill from her inner pocket. She said to her grandfather, Su Mingli, “Grandpa, let me show you something good.”
As he spoke.
Under their gazes, Su Meng took out the medicine box containing the 100% Essence Replenishing Pill. Then, she slowly opened the small medicine box in her hand, revealing the 100% Essence Replenishing Pill inside.
As soon as the medicine box was opened, a golden light seemed to appear. At the same time, in an instant, the rich medicinal fragrance broke free and began to spread unscrupulously in the study.
Without any concealment, the medicinal fragrance finally became rich in an instant, fusing with the already rich tea fragrance and ink fragrance in the study. Then, it suppressed the tea fragrance and ink fragrance.
In the blink of an eye.
The herbal fragrance filled the room.
Grandpa Su and Uncle Su were stunned when they saw the pills in the box.
Su Ruyu, who was at the side, did not understand.
But…
“What a strong medicinal fragrance. Mengmeng, what is this?”
“Grandpa knows.”
Su Meng’s eyes curved as she handed the medicine box to her grandfather.
“Grandpa, guess what this is.”
Grandpa Su reached out to take the medicine box. His gaze landed on the pill in the medicine box, and his eyes flickered. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡．𝙘𝙤𝙢
His expression…
Shocking!
Unbelievable.
It was unbelievable!
This was…
