Detective: I, Cao Jianjun, started by arresting my brother-in-law.

They started reminiscing about their early days, when they were all naive and inexperienced when they first started working.

The conversation flowed smoothly as Cheng Suo, Cao Jianjun, and Zhang Zhijie chatted and laughed, while Chen Xincheng remained preoccupied.

"I heard it."

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

It was pitch black outside when Chen Xincheng finally spoke.

“Your apprentices are all good kids, except for Li Dawei, who's had a bad time following me. He got into trouble because of me, so I'll handle it.”

After saying that, Chen Xincheng downed the beer in his glass in one gulp and got up to leave.

Internal group 1.2 (2) 4.3

"Hey, Old Chen, what are you doing? Old Chen..."

Cheng reached out and grabbed him, and Zhang Zhijie also tried to smooth things over, saying, "Xincheng, we were just chatting, why are you taking this so seriously?"

Chen Xincheng and everyone present were his old colleagues.

He knew he had let everyone down, since his apprentice had caused trouble because of his daughter, which had implicated everyone.

"Oh, Brother Chen, Brother Chen..."

Cao Jianjun shook his head with a wry smile and casually pulled a USB flash drive out of his pocket.

Inside were criminal records and even videos of Chen Jiajia's stepfather's crimes—ironclad evidence.

"I was planning to give this to you tomorrow."

Cao Jianjun stopped hiding it and pushed the brand-new USB drive from the table in front of Chen Xincheng.

"In today's setting, we shouldn't be talking about Jiajia's affairs, but since we've come this far, I might as well lay it all out."

"If that guy surnamed Yu can bully Jiajia, he'll definitely bully others too."

"This one……"

Cao Jianjun pointed to the USB drive and said, "I had someone collect information about what this guy surnamed Yu has done over the years. Sure enough, two innocent girls were bullied, and it even reached the level of criminal offenses."

"Here are the criminal records and evidence against the man surnamed Yu."

Cao Jianjun spoke casually, but every word he uttered landed like a thunderbolt on the small table.

In an instant, Cheng Suo, Chen Xincheng, and Zhang Zhijie were all stunned.

Chen Xincheng, in particular, was dumbfounded on the spot.

He stared longingly at the USB drive, then looked at Cao Jianjun with an incredulous expression.

"Jianjun, are you telling the truth?"

Cheng, the only leader among the four, reacted the fastest, grabbing the USB drive and asking, "You're not kidding?"

"Director Cheng, do you think I'd joke about something like this?"

Cao Jianjun's tone also became serious: "I know Jiajia has been wronged, and Brother Chen is feeling bad, but he can't vent his anger."

"Today, Li Dawei, Yang Shu, and Zhao Jiwei, three good kids, were complained about by that grandson of the man surnamed Yu."

"Whether for public or private reasons, I will investigate this person surnamed Yu."

"This video is irrefutable evidence. As long as we find the two victims from back then, with both witnesses and physical evidence, the man surnamed Yu will definitely not be able to escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, the small table fell silent again.

Chen Xincheng's eyes were red and swirling with tears.

Her fingers trembled slightly as she gripped the USB drive, and she slowly tilted her head back to look at Cao Jianjun.

"Jian...Jianjun, I...I thank you."

"Old Chen, why are you still calling yourself Jianjun?"

Zhang Zhijie joked, "You should call him Brother Cao."

"Hey, right, call him Brother Cao."

Chen Xincheng didn't mind. He quickly got up, wiped his snot and tears, filled the empty wine glass, and then picked it up.

“Brother Cao, I know that the Yu family is involved in illegal and criminal activities. When you investigated him, it wasn’t just because of Jiajia; it was also to rid the people of a scourge.”

“But I’m speaking to you now from the perspective of a victim’s family member, and I thank you.”

"I believe you won't lie to me. Once this case is solved, I... I, Chen Xincheng, will definitely thank you properly."

Chen Xincheng, with a heavy heart, finished speaking very solemnly and downed the rest of his drink in one gulp.

Cao Jianjun felt a little embarrassed, but had no choice but to go along with it.

"Look at you two, you've made such a heavy atmosphere out of a perfectly good little gathering."

Cheng, adept at easing the tension, spoke up, pulling Chen Xincheng to sit down: "Come, come, sit down, Old Chen..."

Then, Chief Cheng looked at Cao Jianjun with surprise: "Jianjun, you've been doing well these past few days. You've been working on cases so quietly and efficiently."

"Oh, I just happened to be in the right place at the right time."

Cao Jianjun said with a smile, "As soon as I arrived at the station today, I heard about what happened to Brother Chen's family."

"Then I found out from Yang Shu that the surname was Yu, so I thought I'd check it out..."

"What a coincidence, this guy surnamed Yu is just too easily investigated..."

"In just one morning, all the evidence was obtained."

12. The older sister-in-law knelt down and begged.

12. The older sister-in-law knelt down and begged.

Chen Xincheng's biggest worry has been resolved, and they gradually started to have more to talk about.

Cao Jianjun could understand his feelings. As a father, his only daughter was being bullied and he had to swallow his anger.

This kind of frustration is something that others cannot truly understand.

Of the four, Cao Jianjun was the youngest, barely thirty, but Chen Xincheng still addressed him as "Brother Cao."

Fortunately, Deputy Director Cheng Hao kept things in check, and no one drank too much when the party ended, all for fear of causing trouble.

After everyone parted ways, Cao Jianjun didn't dare drive and instead took a taxi home.

When I got downstairs, it was already 10 p.m.

Holding the key, I pushed open the door and entered the house. I saw my sister-in-law, Zhou Cong, and my wife, Zhou Hui, sitting silently in the living room.

Suddenly.

Cao Jianjun knew that tonight was probably not going to be easy.

Zhou Hui, the daughter-in-law, quickly got up, turned her back to her sister, and winked at Cao Jianjun.

"My sister's here."

Cao Jianjun naturally understood his wife's signal and greeted her politely, "Huihui, have you cooked for your sister?"

"Jianjun, I'm not hungry."

Wiping away her tears, Zhou Cong, the eldest sister-in-law, quickly got up from the sofa and came over to greet her: "I...I came to ask you, is your brother-in-law really not going to get out?"

"I really don't know."

Cao Jianjun barely thought about it before he started to give perfunctory and evasive answers.

It wasn't just because Cao Jianjun disliked his brother-in-law; the main reason was that Sun Youguang's illegal fundraising amounted to a huge sum, constituting a major economic case.

As a police officer and the primary source of evidence, he certainly couldn't reveal too much to the public.

"Sis, see? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

Zhou Hui quickly and cleverly smoothed things over: "Jianjun is just a grassroots police officer. He's good at handling small neighborhood matters, but he's not qualified to deal with my brother-in-law's affairs."

"Jianjun, you...you have to save your brother-in-law, I...I'm begging you..."

As she was talking, the eldest sister-in-law, Zhou Cong, suddenly knelt down in front of Cao Jianjun.

"Hey, sis, what are you doing?"

Not only Cao Jianjun, but Zhou Hui was also frightened.

The couple hurriedly tried to pull Zhou Cong up, but his sister-in-law was adamant and seemed to be embedded in the ground, no matter how they pulled her, they couldn't move her.

“Jianjun, I…we really can’t accept your brother-in-law.”

Zhou Cong cried out, tears streaming down her face, "This afternoon, the economic crime investigation police came to our house, brought a search warrant, and sealed off our house."

“The police said that your brother-in-law is suspected of illegal fundraising involving a large sum of money. I... how would I know that?”

“Over the years, your brother-in-law has never let me get involved in the company’s affairs or financial matters. I know nothing about it.”

"Now the house is sealed off, our car is sealed off, and my credit cards are all frozen."

“The child is still in school, and I haven’t worked for many years. If something happens to you… if your brother-in-law has an accident, our family will be finished.”

"Jianjun, I beg you, I beg you..."

As he spoke and shouted, Zhou Cong grabbed Cao Jianjun's clothes in a disheveled state, pleading with snot and tears streaming down his face.
