Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 315 I beg you to change your hairstyle
Yu Dazhang's statement about "absolute trust" came from the bottom of his heart.

Within the system, his master and Zhang Sen were among the few people he could completely trust.

By bringing the two of them into the task force, he wouldn't need to personally oversee many things; he could simply leave them to handle.

Moreover, his arrangement was made after careful consideration.

The backlog case team, including him, had just returned from S Province, but this time they were going to investigate a case in an even more distant place.

So he wanted to set aside some time in the evening for Ma Jian and Liu Miao to tell their families that they should spend more time with them before they left.

I also need to give an explanation to myself.

After getting off work, Yu Dazhang called Qu Tuotuo and then drove directly to Yisheng Group.

On his last night in Songhai, he planned to take Qu Tuotuo home for a meal as a farewell dinner.

When they arrived at the Yisheng Group building, before Qu Tuotuo even appeared, they saw Ye Zhiyu first.

Seeing him wasn't surprising, but what truly surprised Yu Dazhang was that Ye Zhiyu was accompanied by a beautiful woman.

Moreover, the two were chatting and laughing, very intimate, and looked like a couple deeply in love.

This inevitably caught Yu Dazhang's attention.

You got a girlfriend so quickly?
"Ye Zhiyu!" Yu Dazhang called out to them.

The sound made both of them stop and turn to look at him.

Upon seeing that it was Yu Dazhang, Ye Zhiyu quickly told the woman to leave first, but she stood still and didn't move, seemingly unwilling to leave on her own.

In the end, it's unclear what Ye Zhiyu said, but the woman seemed to agree to wait where she was.

Arriving at Yu Dazhang's car, Ye Zhiyu asked:

"Why are you here?"

Yu Dazhang didn't answer, but instead looked at the woman standing not far away.

Ye Zhiyu quickly moved his body to block his view.

"Let me see what's wrong," Yu Dazhang said, dissatisfied.
"I haven't even asked you yet, what's going on with her? Don't tell me you two are dating."

Ye Zhiyu forced a smile:
"If we like each other, let's get to know each other first. Look, I'm not getting any younger."

Although what he said made sense, Yu Dazhang was still a little worried.

He lowered his voice and said to Ye Zhiyu:

"Did you use any tricks? I know you too well; you can hypnotize ordinary people without them even realizing it."

"Also, the contact you just mentioned, it's best to have proper contact."

He was doing it for Ye Zhiyu's own good.

Men, sometimes when their hormones take over, will do some outrageous things.

Now that he'd run into them, he was bound to give Ye Zhiyu a reminder to prevent him from making a mistake.

"I knew you couldn't say anything nice!"

Ye Zhiyu's eyes widened in anger:
"That's why I didn't let her come over. You really should see a psychologist. Your occupational habits are too serious. You see everyone as a bad person."

He's really anxious... It's obvious whether he's genuinely angry with Da Zhang.

"Why are you yelling? I was just asking a question."

He whispered:
“Something still doesn’t feel right. That woman is quite pretty. How could she be interested in you? You’re so poor you’re practically urinating blood. Why would she want to be with you?”

As he continued, he noticed that the veins on Ye Zhiyu's forehead were bulging, which startled him so much that he quickly stopped talking.

"So what if I'm poor? How dare you talk to me like that! At least I'm not a kept man!"

Ye Zhiyu became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice gradually rose:
"You're so fat you're practically a ball! I beg you, please get a new hairstyle. It's a miracle that President Qu even noticed you. How dare you talk to me like that!"

"And besides, can't I just find someone pretty? What kind of logic is that? Your thinking is unfit to be a criminal investigator; it's extreme, biased, and twisted..."

How did this escalate into personal attacks...? Seeing that he was getting carried away, Yu Dazhang quickly stopped him:
"Mind your manners!"

He hadn't expected Ye Zhiyu to break down so easily; it was just a well-intentioned reminder, was it really necessary to make such a fuss? "Why are you two arguing?" Qu Tuotuo had appeared in front of the car at some point, staring at the two of them.

Upon seeing Qu Tuotuo, Ye Zhiyu immediately put on a smiling face:

"Hello, Mr. Qu. We're used to bickering, but we haven't had a fight."

As he spoke, he patted Yu Dazhang on the head, only to be slapped away by Yu Dazhang.

Qu Tuotuo couldn't help but laugh when he saw that the two of them looked a bit ridiculous.

"Why are you two acting like children?"

After she got into the car, Yu Dazhang took a tin can of cigarettes from inside the car and handed it to Ye Zhiyu:
"Here you go. I'm leaving Songhai tomorrow to handle a case in another province. Call me if you need anything."

That's called a double entendre.

On the surface, it was saying that Ye Zhiyu could contact him if he needed anything.

There's another layer of meaning: if Qu Tuotuo gets into trouble, you should call him immediately.

These two have worked together many times before, so they have a good understanding of each other.

Ye Zhiyu took the cigarette and looked at him solemnly, saying:

"You don't need my help this time?"

"You've already helped me a lot." Yu Dazhang shook his head:
"The place we went to this time was a bit far and not safe either, but I appreciate your kind gesture."

He considered bringing Ye Zhiyu along, just in case she might come in handy.

But his master's words reminded him that doing such dangerous work, leading technicians into battle, was unethical.

Moreover, Ye Zhiyu's mother is in poor health and needs his care.

"Contact me anytime if you need anything." Ye Zhiyu looked at him earnestly.
"No matter how far away, one phone call is all it takes to get there."

ten minutes later.

vegetable market.

Yu Dazhang and Qu Tuotuo walked hand in hand past each stall.

The young people in the market were drooling with envy, their eyes practically bulging with desire as they wished they could poke holes in Yu Dazhang.

That fatso is here again, isn't he doing it on purpose?

Showing off your love will lead to a quick breakup; true love doesn't need to be flaunted in public.

I tui~
The two then strolled around the market, bought two bags of vegetables, and showered each other with affection all the way.

When he got home, Li Xuehe was already waiting for him.

Yu Dazhang had called his mother beforehand to say he was going to buy groceries to take home.

After a flurry of activity, the food was served. Midway through the meal, Yu Dazhang suddenly said:
"I'm going to another city to handle a case tomorrow."

Although it was a little difficult to say, he still had to say goodbye to his family before leaving.

"Leaving again?!" Li Xuehe protested.
"You've only been back for a few days. Besides, you're a police officer from Songhai. Why are you always going out of town to handle cases?"

Yu Dazhang gets worried whenever this is mentioned.

Lately, I don't know what's wrong with me, but the cases I've been investigating have veered off course and gone further and further away from their original trajectory.

If things continue like this, will the next case have to go abroad?

"What a coincidence," Yu Dazhang explained.
“Originally, all the cases I took on were local, but somehow the investigation led to other provinces. I had to start the investigation from scratch, so I couldn’t just give up halfway through.”

He couldn't go into the specifics of the case, so he could only give vague answers.

"Do you really have to do this?" Li Xuehe asked, frowning.

"Even if you like being a police officer, you can switch to an administrative job, then your dad and I won't have to worry about you every day."
