Major Crimes Unit Starts with Police Academy Students

Wu Mingcheng said with a smile from the side,

"Alright, stop being so cynical. You need to consider Jiajia's feelings too,"

Upon hearing this, Li Dawei said nothing more, but he was still somewhat unwilling to accept it.

Chen Xincheng, standing to the side, said with a smile,

"Let's not talk about her anymore. Dawei, Mingcheng, Jiajia is back. I have a family now too."

For Jiajia's sake, I must pull myself together and show you what a real policeman is like.”

Looking at his spirited face, Li Dawei was genuinely happy for him.

Wu Mingcheng also said,

"Congratulations on Uncle Chen's recovery. I've heard about your past."

Just then, Jiajia came out dragging a suitcase and carrying a drawing board, with Chen Xincheng's ex-wife chasing after her.

"Jiajia, come back to see your mother when you have time,"

Chen Xincheng hurried over to greet his daughter.

Jiajia saw Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei and called out loudly.

"Brother Mingcheng, Brother Dawei,"

Li Dawei happily helped her put her luggage in the car.

"Let's go home,"

Wu Mingcheng took the drawing board from her and patted her head.

"Let's go,"

On his way home, Wu Mingcheng suddenly spoke up, as if something had occurred to him.

"Uncle Chen, it's like this, Jiajia likes to draw, that's what I was thinking..."

I can help Jiajia find a full-time boarding art school in Beijing.

Jiajia can study her academic subjects while drawing, and after graduating from high school, she can study abroad at the Repin Academy of Fine Arts in Russia.

Jiajia's eyes lit up when she heard about the Repin Academy of Fine Arts.

"What? The Repin Academy of Fine Arts? Really?"

Wu Mingcheng smiled and nodded.

"Of course, would I lie to you?"

Seeing Jiajia's excited expression, Chen Xincheng was also tempted, but he didn't have much money left.

Seeing Chen Xincheng hesitate for a moment, Wu Mingcheng immediately understood.

"Uncle Chen, the art school isn't expensive, and the art teachers there are quite good. There are scholarships available in Russia, so you don't need to worry."

Hearing this, Jiajia looked at Chen Xincheng with hopeful eyes.

Chen Xincheng thought that since Jiajia already had tutors at home, it would be better for her to go to an arts high school, which would be a full-time boarding school, and he wouldn't have to worry too much.

He smiled and said,

"Alright, it depends on Jiajia's wishes. If Jiajia wants to go, I'll let her go. Thank you, Mingcheng, for making you worry so much."

Jiajia immediately said,

"Of course I'd like to,"

Wu Mingcheng waved his hand and said,

"Since Jiajia likes to draw, that's not a problem. School starts there in about ten days, so Uncle Chen, you can spend a few more days with Jiajia."

Li Dawei said from the side,

"Jiajia, study hard when you go. I look forward to you becoming a great painter someday. I'm still waiting to collect your paintings."

Upon hearing this, Jiajia nodded vigorously.

"Um,"

Chen Xincheng and Jiajia returned home, and Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei didn't stay long either, leaving as well.

The usually lifeless house seemed to suddenly come alive.

The father and daughter sat together happily, enjoying a simple meal, their laughter filling the air.

Chen Xincheng solemnly posed as his daughter, Jiajia, and drew a sketch of him, which filled him with pride.

As night deepened, Jiajia slept soundly with a smile on her face. Chen Xincheng quietly turned off the light and closed the door.

Because he planned to send Jiajia to an arts high school, Chen Xincheng took a few days off to spend quality time with his daughter.

Back at the institute, Chen Xincheng had taken leave, so Wang Shouyi had Wu Mingcheng lead the team.

With Wu Mingcheng's abilities, this is naturally not a problem; in fact, it allows Wu Mingcheng to take charge on his own.

Life continued as usual. Aside from missions, Wu Mingcheng spent his time reviewing past case files and learning from his predecessors' investigative methods.

However, after a notice from the Municipal Bureau was issued to the station a few days ago, the atmosphere in the station suddenly became tense.

Recently, a particularly heinous series of murders occurred in Zhuzhou City. The killer has murdered three women within the past month.

Despite the investigation by the Major Crimes Unit of the Municipal Public Security Bureau's Criminal Investigation Division, they were only able to find some physical characteristics of the perpetrator.

The team in charge of this case was comprised of members of the Major Crimes Unit Six, who had a close connection with Wu Mingcheng.

The municipal police department distributed the suspect's physical characteristics to all subordinate police stations so that all officers could be aware of them during routine patrols and when responding to calls.

Chapter 523 Supermarket Encounter

After seeing the notice, Wu Mingcheng carefully memorized these characteristics of the murderer.

Left-handed, about 1.65 meters tall, around 27 or 28 years old, slim build, with a scar behind his ear.

Although the chances of encountering it are slim, it's good to have something to be prepared for should it happen.

That day, Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei went out on patrol in their police car. When they arrived at Changsheng Street,

Li Dawei leaned against the window, gazing at the bright sunshine outside, and kept complaining.

"I'm going! Why is it so hot these days? Look, my back is completely soaked from sitting in the car for just a short while."

The worst part is that the air conditioning in this crappy car is broken; isn't this just making things a hassle for us?

To be honest, the sweltering heat was making Wu Mingcheng a little uncomfortable. The air was stifling, and his breathing was becoming somewhat rapid.

Li Dawei really couldn't take it anymore, and at this point suggested,

"Mingcheng, how about we go to that supermarket and buy a cold drink? It's so hot, we need to cool off."

Wu Mingcheng also felt a little thirsty and nodded in agreement.

"Okay,"

So, the two of them parked their car on the side of the road and went to a supermarket on the street.

The supermarket was quite crowded, and the air conditioning inside was excellent; compared to the sweltering heat outside, it was like two different worlds.

Upon entering the supermarket, Li Dawei exclaimed with a satisfied expression,

"Wow, air conditioning! That's great!"

Li Dawei took two bottles of Coke from the refrigerator.

"Mingcheng, do you want a Coke too?"

Upon seeing this, Wu Mingcheng shook his head and refused, saying...

"No, just give me a bottle of mineral water, cola won't quench my thirst."

After receiving their drinks, the two went to the exit to pay.

At the exit, several elderly women were chatting with the cashier, mostly saying that supermarket items were getting more and more expensive and that the merchants were being unscrupulous.

Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei had no choice but to wait patiently behind them.

Li Dawei had originally planned to tell Wu Mingcheng that he would finish his cola before leaving after paying the bill.

That's good, since he didn't want to go out anyway. He was actually hoping the old lady would dawdle a little longer, so he could stay a little longer.

Just then, a piercing scream suddenly came from a corner inside the supermarket.

The screams were extremely piercing in the supermarket, causing everyone to pause in surprise.

Then, someone else screamed loudly.

"Bleeding, her thigh is bleeding profusely,"

Immediately, Wu Mingcheng keenly sensed a bloody stench spreading through the air.

He immediately realized that something was wrong.

At that moment, the long-absent system voice sounded.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for triggering a mission and successfully arresting the murderer. Mission rewards include: beginner-level compression hemostasis technique, observation skills upgraded to perfect level, and crowd control ability upgraded to master level. Host, do you wish to accept the mission?"

Wu Mingcheng silently recited a sentence in his heart.
