Dark Light Chaser.

Chapter 383 Just venting
Sometimes, a seemingly insignificant little thing can be magnified quickly when it reaches the ears of the person involved, causing them to recall their mistake.

After all, everyone makes mistakes.

Many first-time offenders, and even seasoned criminals, share a common flaw.

That means being extra careful at crime scenes.

Especially for first-time offenders, they will take all possible factors into account and handle every trace at the scene carefully.

But when they leave the crime scene, they might slip up because they're relaxed... But I digress.

It was that experience that made Jin Ping'an become silent in front of his classmates, no longer bragging and joking like he used to.

Jin Ping'an approached Ai Liang this time because Ai Liang is the kind of guy who, let alone talking nonsense, won't even bother to talk to you if you ask him questions.

"Actually, I just wanted to talk to someone. The main problem is that I can't tell what I can and can't say, and I'm worried that I might accidentally reveal police secrets. That's why I came to you. You're very discreet, so even if I accidentally reveal something, you won't tell anyone."

To put it bluntly, it's just treating people like garbage cans, right?
Jin Ping'an's way of speaking is still the same old style, still very offensive.

Ai Liang continued eating her spring rolls, and Jin Ping'an let him say whatever he wanted, since he would leave as soon as he finished eating anyway.

Just treat it as listening to the news while eating.

Seeing that Ai Liang did not object, Jin Ping'an naturally assumed that Ai Liang had acquiesced to his request.

So he raised his first question: "Can a person whose knee is shot through by a bullet still run at the speed of a 100-meter sprint?"

Ai Liang, who had just picked up a spring roll and was about to put it in her mouth, paused with her chopsticks, then looked at Jin Ping'an with a strange gaze.

You've asked me your very first question?
If Ai Liang hadn't given Jin Ping'an a hint, preventing him from consciously recalling things related to 'Ai Liang,' 'the hermit,' and 'the messenger,'...

Otherwise, just hearing these words, one might think that this guy is deliberately testing me.

"Not long ago, the forensic office performed an autopsy on a body. The results showed that the bullet hole in the man's knee had been there for at least a week. Yet, before he died, he not only ran as if nothing had happened, but he was even racing against others on a mountain road..."

Jin Ping'an lived up to his reputation for speaking without thinking, discussing such a heavy topic as autopsies right from the start of their meal.

Although Ai Liang didn't care about such heavy topics, he still waved his hand to stop Jin Ping'an: "What are you trying to say?"

Jin Ping'an hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said mysteriously, "Do you think there are superpowers in this world that can enhance the body?"

Jin Ping'an had this idea the moment he received the autopsy results.

Unfortunately, Jia Dong's body was taken away by a special department shortly after the autopsy.

Jin Ping'an was unable to use the rewind function on the corpse.

Rather than the superpowers Jin Ping'an mentioned, Wu Ke and his group were more inclined to believe that someone had impersonated Jia Dong to go up the mountain to wipe out drug dealers, and then, on the way down the mountain, took advantage of the moment when Lao Ka was blinded by a flashbang to pull off a switcheroo.

The murderer first obtained weapons from arms dealer Jia Dong, and then used these weapons to kill drug dealers on the mountain.

Finally, he used a time bomb to coerce Jia Dong into becoming bait, attracting the attention of the anti-drug team, while he took the opportunity to escape.

After all, how could someone with a shattered kneecap possibly outrun a narcotics squad special police officer?

His reasoning was logical and well-founded. If Jin Ping'an hadn't secretly reviewed the car wreckage and confirmed that Jia Dong was the only person in the car from beginning to end, he might have actually believed it.

But Jin Ping'an couldn't explain this to Wu Ke, and could only watch helplessly as they searched for clues and tracked down the non-existent murderer.

Even if I shared my theory, the anti-drug squad wouldn't believe me.

Jin Ping'an had no choice but to ask Ai Liang, who was the same age as him, for her opinion.

Ai Liang raised her head and looked at him with pity, as if she were looking at a delusional teenager.

"Superpowers don't exist. Instead of spending your time watching movies and indulging in a world of fantasy, you should memorize more material to improve your humanities grades."

But I have the superpower to go back in time!

Jin Ping'an bit his lip, looking like he wanted to say something but couldn't.

A sense of superiority, as if 'I am special,' involuntarily arose in my heart.

He couldn't wait to show off his divine power in front of everyone and see Ai Liang's surprised face.

However, Jin Ping'an only thought about this idea.

Previously, in order to gain the messenger's trust, they had deliberately exposed their ability to rewind.

Cheng Lejia and Tian Hao took turns lecturing Jin Ping'an, which gave him a headache.

If Tian Hao were to tell Ai Liang about the ability to rewind time, he might just resort to force to teach him a lesson.

Sigh, someone as rational as Ai Liang probably won't believe in the existence of superpowers unless I show them to him.

Jin Pingan sighed inwardly.

"Never mind, let's not talk about this for now..."

When Ai Liang mentioned studying, he immediately changed the subject: "What do you think would threaten a person of a certain status to the point that they would rather commit suicide than be arrested?"

So... the anti-drug squad took Jia Dong's final act of driving off a cliff and detonating a time bomb as being coerced?
Well... in a way, that's true.

Ai Liang calmly put down her chopsticks and said matter-of-factly, "You ask me? How would I know?"

Jin Ping'an laughed and said, "That makes sense. After all, you can't deduce anything without clues."

After saying that, he changed his tone and sighed, "Alas, I don't know what's going on, but Qianhua City has become increasingly unsafe lately."

Previous murders were committed by acquaintances, but recent ones involve criminal gangs oppressing the innocent, and this time they've even brought out grenade launchers..."

Ai Liang felt increasingly uncomfortable listening to it.

Because almost everything Jin Pingan said was related to him.

The source of the weapons was Jia Dong, the head of the drug traffickers was Crippled Wolf, and the kidnapper and murderer was Cat's Eye. All three were fugitives who escaped from Ai Liang's clutches back then.

If he had been more ruthless and thorough in eliminating them, the security situation in Qianhua City might have been much better.

"Did you know that the most outrageous thing about this case wasn't the grenade launcher, but a time bomb!"
I heard from the technical department that this bomb is a military-grade plastic explosive, not a homemade TNT bomb…

Perhaps it was because Ai Liang hadn't revealed information about the kidnapping to any third party last time.

Jin Ping'an seemed certain that Ai Liang would never reveal these things, so he became more and more enthusiastic, revealing a lot of confidential information that should not be told to outsiders.

In fact, Jin Ping'an didn't expect Ai Liang to figure anything out. After all, what decent person would want to know about a time bomb?
I told Ai Liang all this just to vent.

Even if Ai Liang is a genius, it's impossible for her to know everything like a know-it-all!
