I became the police station's darling after I could understand what the furry creature was sayi

Chapter 217 Genius? Ah Li? I'm sorry? Boyfriend?

Nan Punian abruptly stood up, strode to his desk, and turned on his computer.

"Team Leader Nan, what's wrong?"

Nan Shu was puzzled.

"I'm watching..."

Nan Punian replied with three words, his fingertips tapping the keyboard. Nan Shu walked to his side and saw him press Enter. In the database, the case handled by Cheng Heping popped up.

When he passed away three years ago, the branch wasn't busy. Around that time, Nancheng had just solved a 23-year-old cold case using modern technology, which sparked heated discussions. A document was then issued from above, using the Nancheng cold case as an example, encouraging the reopening of old and unsolved cases.

At that time, the Qingshan District branch responded to the call and retrieved the old case files from the archives.

Nan Punian swiped the mouse, but didn't find what he was looking for. He wasn't discouraged.

I released the mouse, looked at the little girl, met her questioning eyes, and softly explained my guess.

Nan Shu's words gave him inspiration.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

The fact that the murderer suddenly emerged after so many years of the case remaining unsolved, even at the cost of killing Cheng Heping, indicates that Cheng Heping's death could bring even greater benefits that the other party found more useful.

Nan Punian didn't know what this 'greater benefit' was, but he believed that if he continued to investigate in this direction, the truth would eventually come to light.

“Xiao Shu, your keen insight into the case far surpasses mine.”

Nan Punian looked at the little girl with an expression of admiration, his dark eyes sparkling, "You were born to be a criminal investigator."

Nan Shu: ...

That's not quite right, he's just twenty-one years old and has been working for five years.

Cheng Heping's death was a hurdle in Nan Punian's heart, but Nan Punian never let this hurdle affect his daily case handling. Now that there is a new direction, Nan Punian is even less able to suppress his feelings.

She quickly adjusted her mindset and asked, "By the way, you mentioned you wanted to look at apartments a while ago, did you find one you liked?"

Nan Shu didn't understand why the topic had suddenly jumped to this point, so she nodded and said, "I've found one that I like, and I plan to go take a look later."

Which building? Is the location good?

“Qingshan Garden is quite far from the police station and school…” Nan Shu paused, looking at Nan Punian, “Captain Nan… how did you know I wanted to buy a detached villa?”

"Oh, I glanced at it when you were looking at houses before; you were looking at townhouses."

Nan Punian replied without batting an eye.

"so…"

Nan Shu felt she didn't remember much about it.

"Well, there's no news from the fire department yet. It's still early, do you want to go check it out first and find out as soon as possible?"

Nan Punian suggested.

Nan Shu had the same thought, especially after the fire on the 20th floor, which made her feel that high-rise residential buildings weren't so safe after all.

Plus.

After observing for a period of time, Nan Shu discovered that Tie Hanhan seemed to have some Alaskan Malamute blood. He was full of energy every day, and the one-hour walk in the morning was not enough. Keeping him in the large apartment was really stifling him.

"Okay, I'll contact the agent. Team Leader Nan, please contact me anytime if anything happens here."

"Okay, let's go."

"OK."

……

After leaving the office, Nan Shu thought for a moment and then went back to the forensic office.

As soon as I opened the door, I saw that Xu Yunli had gotten up at some point.

heard movement.

The man turned around, and their eyes met.

Xu Yunli put his glasses back on, and his eyes regained their usual gentle warmth.

"Forensic Doctor Xu, why are you up? Has your fever subsided?"

Nan Shu frowned.

“There’s still a little bit left…” Xu Yunli raised his hand, touched his forehead with his fingertips, walked up to her, and lowered his head. “I think I’m not mistaken.”

Nan Shu's hand naturally rested on the ground.

"It's still a bit hot, but it's definitely not as hot as it was just now."

"Mm." Xu Yunli smiled.

"Xiaoshu, are you going home? Let me take you."

"No, I want to go see the house."

Nan Shu shook her head and said, then looked at Xu Yunli. She felt that the forensic doctor in front of her was very different from usual, but she couldn't quite put her finger on why.

"Then I'll take it to you."

With that, Xu Yunli walked towards the door.

Nan Shu glanced at his back and then at his somewhat unsteady steps, then silently took out her phone from her pocket.

five minutes later.

Xu Yunli sat in the back seat of the taxi with Tie Hanhan, the dog and the man, staring at each other.

“Xu…Ali, let’s go look at the house first, and then I’ll take you home later.”

Nan Shu sat in the passenger seat, subconsciously glanced at the driver next to her, paused, and then turned to the man and said.

Xu Yunli's eyelashes trembled, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he looked up at Nan Shu, his voice a little dry, "Xiao Shu..."

"what happened?"

Nan Shu fastened her seatbelt and turned her head in confusion.

Xu Yunli shook his head, a smile unconsciously curving his lips, his eyes brimming with laughter. "It's nothing."

Nan Shu: "...Oh."

Xu Yunli didn't know how to describe his current feelings. His heart felt like fireworks were going off, dazzling and wonderful. The man's fingers curled up and then relaxed. He raised his hand, hugged Tie Hanhan's head, and patted it.

Iron-headed fool: ?

"Even if... I'm sorry, Anian..."

Tie Hanhan heard the man's mutterings, looked up at him, as if he didn't understand what the man was doing, but just felt that the man was a bit strange.

Nan Shu sent a message to the agent before getting on the bus, and the agent replied as quickly as ever.

She said she would leave immediately and wait at the entrance of the residential area.

Their sincere and enthusiastic attitude made Nan Shu feel that she would be letting them down if she didn't buy it.

There was still some distance to Qingshan Garden. Just as Nan Shu was about to close her eyes and rest for a while, her phone vibrated again.

This message came from Coach Liu at the driving school.

I asked Nan Shu if she had time next Monday, and if so, I would help her register.

Nan Shu has taken some time these past few days to do some practice problems.

"If I refresh it a few more times in the next few days, there shouldn't be any problems."

Nan Shu thought to herself and replied with a "good" to Coach Liu.

Put the phone back in the bag.

Nan Shu suddenly felt that her life was becoming more and more fulfilling: the police station, school, the silly animals, the house, and the driver's license...

Everything was proceeding smoothly, and Nan Shu liked this solid sense of fulfillment.

……

"Miss Nan? You must be Miss Nan!"

As soon as Nan Shu got out of the car, a short-haired, capable woman in her thirties, dressed in a business suit, quickly walked over.

The name tag was engraved with two words: Wang Ling.

"Yes, hello."

"Miss Nan has such a great temperament, and her boyfriend is very handsome too."

Wang Ling handed the prepared bottled water and temporary bag to Nan Shu with both hands, and praised her with a smile when she saw the two people and the dog.

Nan Shu: ...

Nan Shu glanced at Xu Yunli somewhat awkwardly, "We are friends."

Unexpectedly, her compliment backfired, causing Wang Ling's smile to falter. She subconsciously glanced at Xu Yunli again. Having seen countless people, she could tell at a glance that the boy had other intentions towards the girl.

Don’t say anything else.

From the moment he got out of the car, the boy's eyes never left the girl!
