You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 355 The Case Breaks Out!

Seeing Yang Jinwen's worried expression, Wen Ling dared not continue to act coquettishly.

Besides, she can distinguish between priorities and can relieve people's stress.

"Don't overthink it. Just handle the cases that are your responsibility. Don't even think about cases that aren't yours."

Wen Ling was repeating her mother's words, which she had seen her mother comfort Lao Wen countless times.

The family members of cadres are aware of this.

Yang Jinwen nodded and followed her into the forensic identification center.

The location is in Xingye District, next to the provincial government building.

In the hall, Maozi and Jiang Yuxin were already waiting.

"Master," Jiang Yuxin greeted, then timidly called out, "Captain Yang."

She was wearing a long white down jacket, which looked like it had just been bought.

Yang Jinwen nodded slightly to her, and then, seeing the cat's arrogant demeanor, he knew that the cat had spent a lot of money these past two days.

Cat is a true sister-protecting maniac; he's more enthusiastic about buying things for his sister than for himself.

In short, he is a good older brother.

Wen Ling nodded: "Yuxin, come with me to the lab to get the report. Jinwen, you guys stay here for now."

After the two went up to the second floor, Maozi immediately grabbed Yang Jinwen's arm.

"Captain Yang, do you know?"

Seeing the gleam in his eyes, Yang Jinwen asked in bewilderment, "What do I know?"

"Xingye Department Store is owned by Feng Xiaocai's family!"

Even Yang Jinwen, who was indifferent to fame and fortune, was taken aback.

"real or fake?"

Cat nodded vigorously: "It's absolutely true. Yuxin's down jacket was bought at her family's shopping mall. Sister Cai bought two coats and two down jackets in one go, and Xiao Cai asked the counter to give us a 30% discount!"
The original price of one piece of clothing is half a month's salary for us, it's fucking terrifying!

Yang Jinwen sighed: "Why didn't you invite me? I also wanted to buy two coats."

Cat blinked: "I didn't dare look for you, I was afraid the forensic doctor Wen would kill me. But, Xiao Cai saved two outfits for you based on the model's height, saying they'd look great on you, they're both foreign brands, Ban... Ban what?"

"Baleno?"

Yes, that's the brand.

Yang Jinwen quickly glanced at the second floor: "I dare not let the forensic doctor Wen know."

"Of course."

"Has Lao Yao not been with you guys these past couple of days?"

Cat shook his head: "I don't know where that old guy went. He's always disappearing without a trace."

"Not in the dorm?"

"I haven't seen him. He didn't come back last night. He's probably out hanging out somewhere."

"Old Yao is a veteran criminal investigator; he must know a lot of people in the provincial capital. He's probably visiting a friend."

Cat nodded: "By the way, Captain Yang, where did you and Forensic Doctor Wen go these past two days? Did you visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and the ancient city wall?"

Yang Jinwen clicked his tongue: "What's so interesting about the dilapidated Big Wild Goose Pagoda? The ancient city walls are all moldy and overgrown with weeds, so there's even less to see."

"You've been there?" Cat nodded: "Yes, I regret spending the ticket money, it's ridiculously expensive."

The taxi driver was right, and Yang Jinwen felt much better.

The two were chatting when they saw a tall, imposing man walk in through the door. He had a square face, a high nose, and was wearing an olive-green uniform, exuding an air of righteousness.

Yang Jinwen glanced at the police rank on the other person's shoulder and exclaimed, "Wow, a first-level police inspector! He's either a full-fledged division chief or at the very least a deputy division chief!"

When the newcomer saw Yang Jinwen, he squinted and looked at him again and again.

Yang Jinwen found it strange that he didn't go inside or upstairs, but just stood there with his nose straight, as if waiting for someone.

A short while later, Wen Ling came down from the second floor carrying official documents. Holding onto the handrail, she called out to the people below, "Brother."

The man smiled and walked to the top of the stairs: "Ling'er, I've been to my third uncle's house several times, but I haven't seen you."

“I don’t live at my parents’ house.” Wen Ling smiled and said, “Brother, you’ve lost weight.”

"It's alright, I'm quite busy with work."

"You're a big shot, what are you so busy with?"

"That's not quite right," the man said. "I apologize in advance. I couldn't attend your engagement because I had a case to investigate and couldn't get away. I'm sorry."

"It's alright, just give me two bottles of Moutai."

Wen Ling laughed as she pulled his wrist and pointed at Yang Jinwen with her other hand.

"He is my fiancé, Yang Jinwen."

"Jinwen, this is my eldest cousin, Wen Hesong, the director of the First Division of the Provincial Public Security Department's Criminal Investigation Department."

Yang Jinwen raised an eyebrow and had just extended his hand when the other person pointed at him and asked, "Are you from the Angang compound?"

"Uh……"

"In the summer of '88, there was a fight under the bridge next to the No. 1 Middle School in the city. More than a dozen people from Angang came to help. You were the shortest, weren't you?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Jinwen didn't react, but Wen Ling was startled.

Wen Hesong continued, "I remember you. When Ling'er was about to hit someone with a brick, you stopped her. When we were arrested by the police, you even smeared mud on your face?!"

Case solved!
Wen Ling stared at Yang Jinwen with a strange look, as if she were seeing him for the first time.

"It is you!"

“That happened so many years ago,” Yang Jinwen smiled.

Wen Ling sighed and frowned, saying, "I remember, I stole your bicycle, didn't I?"

Yang Jinwen hummed in agreement. Seeing his admission, Wen Ling gave him a shove: "Why didn't you say so sooner? Why didn't you say so sooner…"

"I was thinking of giving you a surprise later."

"This is what you call a surprise?" Wen Ling pouted and said, "I remember now, back then, I stole your bicycle and told you to come to the No. 1 Middle School to get it from me, why didn't you come?"

Yang Jinwen shrugged and said, "That bicycle isn't mine."

Wen Ling smiled, but was also angry: "I almost missed you. I was wondering why you always looked so familiar."

Wenhe Song smiled and said, "This is fate. Annam is such a big place. After all the twists and turns, you two are now engaged."

Yang Jinwen smiled and nodded, shaking hands with him: "Hello, Director Wen."

"Don't call me that, just call me brother."

Yang Jinwen wasn't that outgoing: "Okay, Director Wen."

Wen Ling sighed, "Oh, if I had known it would be like this, we should have found a place to have a drink together. I have to catch my train; I need to return the test report I have right away."

Wenhe said gently, "Anyway, you'll be transferred to the provincial capital sooner or later."

"That's for next year."

Wen Hesong shook his head: "I'll see if I can find a way to arrange for you to work in the provincial department."

Wen Ling stared wide-eyed: "Provincial Department?"

"Yes, in the years since the reform and opening up, the economy has prospered and urbanization has continued to develop. Too many people have tried to take shortcuts and make money through shady means. Major cases are handled by local authorities, but their capacity is limited. Provincial departments also need to go down to the grassroots level to handle cases."

You're a forensic pathologist; forensic pathologists are needed everywhere, and the provincial department needs someone like you.

Wen Ling asked coquettishly, "Brother, is it really going to work?"

"I will handle it."

"That's a good feeling."

After Wen Ling finished acting cute, she noticed that Mao Zi and Jiang Yuxin were staring at her like she was a monster, so she quickly resumed her aloof demeanor.

"Director Wen, that's all for now, goodbye."

"Captain Yang, until we meet again."

Wen Ling was all serious and pretentious.

Yang Jinwen said, "I'll take you to the train station."

"I can get there by taxi, no need."

With a flourish, she called out to Jiang Yuxin, and the two of them stepped out of the hall and hailed a taxi.

"Take it easy, be careful, and give us a call when you get back to the office," Yang Jinwen reminded them.

Cat also said, "Sister, learn well from Forensic Doctor Wen and Sister Wen."

Jiang Yuxin nodded: "Don't worry, brother. You should work hard with Captain Yang."

Seeing the taxi leave, Wen Hesong smiled and said, "My sister is so clever and mischievous."

That's right! Yang Jinwen had a deep understanding of this; he was well-versed in anatomy and even more familiar with the sensitive parts of the human body!

"Jinwen, would you like to sit in my office? It's right next door," Wen Hesong suggested.

Yang Jinwen shook his head: "I'm sorry to have disturbed your work. How about we go to Director Wen's house for a drink another day?"

“Alright, let’s do it next weekend. I’ll bring some good wine.” Wen Hesong patted him on the shoulder. “See you then.”

"Goodbye." Yang Jinwen nodded and waved.

Cat watched the other person's retreating figure with envy and said, "A first-level police inspector from the provincial department, when will I be that awesome?"

Yang Jinwen laughed and said, "If you can get this far, even your dog can be a police dog. Don't think too much about it. Come on, let's go for a walk."

The cat wondered, "I don't have a dog. Where should I go for a walk?"

"Let's just take a walk around Xingye District."

"also."

Maozi and Yang Jinwen walked side by side, chatting as they went: "Captain Yang, I heard in the dormitory that the Second Brigade has been working very hard these past two days."

"A robbery and murder case?" Yang Jinwen squinted. "What type of robbery?"

Cat replied, "It was an armed robbery. The victim had just withdrawn money from the bank when two thugs robbed him and stabbed him to death. They stole more than 10,000 yuan in cash."

Yang Jinwen grunted, pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Have you caught them?"

"We caught one, but we haven't found the other criminal. He's probably escaped."

Shen Wenzhu is really stressed these past few days. She's preparing to report to the bureau, and she expects the leaders to issue wanted notices to all districts and counties tomorrow when they come to work.

Yang Jinwen nodded and said no more.

He and Maozi strolled around Xingye District, then went to Tayan District. As it was getting dark, they went to Xingye Department Store to take a look at Feng Xiaocai's assets.

Wow, they're really rich!

Feng Xiaocai is an only child. If her father doesn't have a mistress or give birth to half-siblings for her, this will be Feng Xiaocai's dowry.

"A rich girl, why is she a police officer?" Yang Jinwen couldn't help but sigh.

No wonder Feng Xiaocai seems weak and easily bullied, but when she worked in the brigade, no one dared to say a harsh word to her.

In this day and age, big business owners who are extremely wealthy are much more powerful than local leaders, and they attract investment like gods of wealth.

Early the next morning.

Yang Jinwen swallowed the Liuwei Dihuang Pills he had bought again yesterday, shook himself up, and just as he entered the office, Wu Kai barged in, holding a police report in his hand.

"Third Squad, we have a case."

Yang Jinwen perked up and asked, "Captain Wu, what case is it?"

"Taxi driver robbery and murder case. The crime scene is in the northwest suburbs. Pack your things, we'll leave together in ten minutes!"
