After all, from the case itself, Lin Zhengyi's methods were clean and efficient, and even if Fo Bole identified the target, he could not find any evidence.

If he reports it, it will be a wasted effort.

At last!

He and Lin Zhengyi had a good relationship, so why would he bother reporting him when there was no benefit to it?

Thinking about it, even though he had no intention of reporting it, his gaze towards Lin Zhengyi changed somewhat after learning about these things.

Lin Zhengyi, who was standing nearby, also sensed the change.

He figured that Inspector Li had probably guessed it.

But I didn't pay much attention to it.

Without evidence, no one can do anything about him.

Moreover, he has a good relationship with Inspector Li, so even if the other party guesses it, he probably won't report it.

And at that time...

Xiao Xiu, who was standing to the side, accidentally dropped a silk scarf she was holding onto the ground.

Lin Zhengyi saw it and instinctively picked it up and returned it to the other person.

Watch this scene.

As Xiao Xiu accepted the scarf, she gave Lin Zhengyi a bright smile and then thanked him meaningfully, "Thank you, Uncle!"

Lin Zhengyi realized there was a hidden meaning in the other person's words.

Suddenly!

Laughing dumbly.

He realized that the little girl had probably recognized him.

But at this moment, it doesn't really matter anymore.

Chapter 1232 The Price of Breaking the Rules

Lin Zhengyi has been back in Hong Kong for several days now.

These days, neither Hong Kong nor the United States are at peace.

Hong Kong.

Thomas's disappearance was discovered in these days.

As a high-ranking official, the other party's disappearance is obviously a major event.

and so!

The higher-ups immediately issued orders for all departments, especially the police, to do everything in their power to search for Thomas.

Not only that, but they also organized a special task force within the police force, gathering elites from various departments to specifically analyze and investigate where Thomas went.

Even Lin Zhengyi was recruited as a member after his return.

but!

Summon Lin Zhengyi and let him investigate himself—isn't that a complete joke?

He can investigate himself?

of course!

Although Lin Zhengyi did not conduct the investigation, during the investigation process, when other police officers discovered that Thomas had left Hong Kong illegally, Lin Zhengyi still subtly guided the investigation, causing the entire task force to go in the wrong direction.

It has come to light that Thomas may have fled to avoid punishment.

Thomas himself was no saint either. The fact that his criminal gang's smuggling case was cracked by Chief Han and Inspector Li showed that he was corrupt. Therefore, after the task force investigated some of his corruption and abuse of power, Lin Zhengyi's suggestion to flee in fear of punishment was quickly accepted by the rest of the task force.

At this point, it became difficult for the higher-ups to allow the task force to investigate Thomas any further.

joke!

Thomas is one of the top officials in Hong Kong!

It's one thing to have only found a few clues so far, but if they really investigate further and find all sorts of criminal evidence, wouldn't the entire Hong Kong government become a laughing stock?

no way!

The only option was to cover it up, disband the task force, and close the case as Thomas's disappearance.

Of course, there might also be an investigation into Thomas's whereabouts behind the scenes.

but!

This has nothing to do with Lin Zhengyi.

Besides.

Things aren't peaceful in the US either.

The investigation into the Fuzhou Hotel incident is still ongoing, and now the incident at the suburban farm has also been discovered.

but!

Unlike the Fuzhou Hotel, which had eyewitnesses, the hotel was not burned after the witnesses died, nor was the body burned, while the suburbs were burned. Lin Zhengyi poured oil on the fire, and it exploded afterward. This caused the investigators to make mistakes during their investigation.

At the Fuzhou Hotel, they discovered that the person had been beaten to death with fists, while at the suburban farm, only bones remained, some even brittle from the fire. The location of the suburban farm was then determined to have been killed by a heavy weapon.

The discrepancy between the two cases prevented people from connecting them.

of course!

This is partly because the Fuzhou Hotel was involved in a diplomatic incident from the beginning, so the investigation was conducted by the Fuzhou police, while the suburban farm was handled by the state police, which is why the two investigations were conducted by different personnel.

Regardless, both cases were major incidents and caused quite a stir.

But in the end, there was no result.

After all, the perpetrators were not from the United States, so the American police had no way to investigate and had no leads whatsoever.

-

the other side.

After several days of uproar surrounding Thomas's disappearance, the task force was disbanded, and Lin Zhengyi returned to his normal get off work routine.

And on this day too!

Lin Zhengyi is going to work properly.

suddenly!

"Jingle Bell!"

The phone rang.

"Hey!"

Lin Zhengyi picked it up casually.

quickly!

"it's me!"

A slightly excited voice came from the other end of the phone.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhengyi immediately understood that the person on the other end of the phone was none other than Li Wenbin.

only!

Why was the other party so agitated?

With this question in mind, Lin Zhengyi asked, "Li sir, is there something you need?"

"Something's happened! Big news! Great news!!!" Li Wenbin exclaimed excitedly.

Hearing the other person's words and excited tone, Lin Zhengyi immediately realized that the other person was probably about to say something big.

And it's a great thing.

Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have gotten so agitated.

Thinking about it!

Lin Zhengyi then asked, "What good news!?"

"About you!"

After saying that, Li Wenbin added mysteriously, "Can you guess what good news it is?"

Lin Zhengyi was taken aback for a moment, then realized what was going on and asked, "What is it?"

He really couldn't guess what good things could possibly come of it for him.

Recently, apart from rescuing Commander Han's daughter, he hasn't done anything else. And if he hasn't done anything else, how can he have done anything good?

and many more!

Commander Han's daughter?

Could it be that Commander Han gave him some kind of reward?

Lin Zhengyi secretly began to speculate.

But he wasn't sure if that was the case.

"You've been stuck without a promotion, haven't you? Starting today, all you need to do is make one more significant contribution, and you'll be promoted!" Li Wenbin said excitedly.

The reason Lin Zhengyi has not been promoted is not because he has made any mistakes, but simply because of age and seniority, which are common issues.

Even though these restrictions were significantly reduced due to various achievements.

However, cuts are not entirely absent; they remain an obstacle.

If Lin Zhengyi wants to upgrade, he will have to wait at least a few years.

But after today, everything will be different.

These are no longer Lin Zhengyi's limitations!

"what happened?"
