The spirit fox looked at Cao Kun, its lips twitching slightly, and in the end, it could only helplessly accept the name.

Cao Kun was in a great mood and casually gave a few more instructions on the daily management details of Aji.

The fox nodded in acknowledgment, waved for Aki to follow, and prepared to leave.

Just as he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, as if he had remembered something.

"By the way, boss, there's one more thing. I recently gathered some information from Changteng's intelligence network."

"Your friend, Ms. Yu Zhiqing from the Municipal Bureau, seems to be under a lot of pressure lately."

Cao Kun frowned and put down his coffee cup: "What exactly happened?"

The spirit fox said in a deep voice, "The specific details are still under investigation."

But it seems to involve a powerful force in the capital.

Someone is putting pressure on the Nagō City Police Department targeting Ms. Yu Zhiqing.

Cao Kun's heart skipped a beat.

Before he went to Shanghai, Yu Zhiqing had been troubled by the case of the masked man, He Yichen.

It is said that He Yichen has a powerful background and that someone is protecting him.

Is this what it is?

After the fox spirit left, Cao Kun sat at the dining table, tapping his fingers lightly on the surface, lost in thought.

Just then, soft footsteps came from the stairwell.

Qian Xining came downstairs wearing a silk bathrobe.

The smooth silk fabric clung to her graceful figure, and the slightly open neckline revealed a large expanse of snow-white skin.

Seeing Cao Kun's furrowed brows, she walked over and gently hugged his neck from behind, asking softly:

"Honey, what's wrong? Why are you frowning so early in the morning?"

Cao Kun briefly recounted what Linghu had just reported about Yu Zhiqing.

Upon hearing this, Qian Xining's face immediately showed a worried expression:

"Zhiqing?"

"No wonder she hasn't contacted me much lately."

I texted her to ask what she was busy with, but she was vague and told me not to worry about it.

So that's what big trouble you've encountered.

Yu Zhiqing is her best friend, so Qian Xining naturally hopes to help her out.

Qian Xining walked around to Cao Kun's front, took his hand, and said coquettishly:

"Honey, you have a wide network of connections and many tricks up your sleeve. Why don't you see if you can help her out?"

I know her stubborn nature; she likes to shoulder everything herself.

Cao Kun nodded and pulled her into his arms: "Don't worry, I'll handle it."

The two spent some more time being affectionate at the restaurant. Qian Xining had an important meeting at her company that day, so she changed her clothes and left first.

After seeing Qian Xining off, Cao Kun also got into the motorcade.

"Go to the company."

"Yes."

The convoy drove smoothly along the streets of Changteng.

Cao Kun leaned back in the back seat, closed his eyes to rest, and kept reviewing the information about Yu Zhiqing in his mind.

After driving for a while, Wang Meng, who was in the front seat, said, "Boss, the company is almost there after the next turn."

Cao Kun opened his eyes, looked at the street scene outside the window, and suddenly asked, "Is the Municipal Public Security Bureau also nearby?"

Wang Meng glanced at the navigation and nodded, "Yes, it's just two streets away, about a five-minute drive."

Cao Kun pondered for a moment, then his gaze hardened:

"I'm not going to the company. I'll drive to the vicinity of the Municipal Bureau first and stop there."

After saying that, he took out his phone, found Yu Zhiqing's number, and dialed it directly.

……

Municipal Public Security Bureau, Director's Office.

The atmosphere was extremely oppressive, almost suffocating.

Yu Zhiqing sat on the sofa with her arms crossed, her face looking rather unpleasant.

Across from her, the gray-haired bureau chief sighed, looked at his stubborn subordinate, and said helplessly:

"Xiaoyu, it's not that I don't want to help you, I just have no other choice..."

At this point, your insistence is meaningless.

The orders from above have already been issued. What can you do if you stubbornly refuse to release them?

Besides offending all the big shots in the capital and driving yourself to the brink of ruin, what good will that do?

He wanted to offer a few more words of advice, explaining the pros and cons.

But Yu Zhiqing suddenly raised her head, interrupting him with intense emotion:

"Boss, I know you're doing this for my own good and don't want me to get into trouble."

"But I must stick to this to the end!"

He Yichen is clearly a vicious and ruthless person.

His mind is extremely twisted and perverse; he's an antisocial madman!

"If we can't put him in prison in Changteng, once we let him go back to his old ways..."

He'll likely escalate his crimes and commit even more sins in the future!

Yu Zhiqing became more and more excited as she spoke:

"As you know, He Yichen is from the He family in the capital."

The moment he's brought back to the capital, this case will definitely be dropped due to various reasons of "insufficient evidence"!

"At that time, he will still be that young master He who is free from the law."

But what about the innocent victims in Nagato City? Who will seek justice for them?

If I just stand by and watch him be taken away, I'll have wasted my time wearing this police uniform and let down the people of Changteng!

Looking at Yu Zhiqing, who wouldn't budge an inch, the police chief remained silent for a long time before finally shaking his head helplessly.

He knew he couldn't persuade this subordinate.

The bureau chief sighed, slowly stood up, and prepared to leave the office.

As he reached the door, he paused, his back to Yu Zhiqing, and said in a complex tone:

"Xiaoyu, your father and I have been old friends for many years, and I privately regard you as my niece."

"But I hope you understand that I also faced pressure from above, and there are some things I couldn't control."

"If you still insist on not letting them go and insist on pushing things to the limit..."

"I'm afraid the bureau will have no choice but to issue a document suspending you temporarily for reflection."

After saying that, the bureau chief left without lingering.

With a click, the office fell into a deathly silence once more.

Yu Zhiqing felt all her strength drain away instantly, and she slumped weakly onto the sofa, her eyes filled with confusion.

the other side.

The director took a deep breath, turned around, and walked into the adjacent meeting room.

As soon as you push open the door, an invisible sense of oppression hits you.

A young couple sat on the leather sofa in the reception room.

The man had distinct facial features, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and was so handsome that he was almost demonic, a perfect template for the destined protagonist from a novel.

The woman was stunningly beautiful, tall, and possessed a cool and aloof demeanor, like an iceberg or snow lotus. One glance was enough to make anyone feel inferior and dare not defile her.

The two of them sitting together looked like a perfect match, a match made in heaven.

However, the aura they exuded was even more suffocating.

It was an innate, aloof nobility.

It was as if they came from the heavens above, and everything in this mortal world was nothing but ants in their eyes.

We should revolve around them; the slightest neglect would be a capital offense.

Upon seeing the bureau chief enter, the two men didn't even budge, their expressions remaining arrogant and indifferent.

The bureau chief strode forward, forcing a fawning smile onto his old face, his back involuntarily bending slightly.

"Oh dear, Mr. He, Miss Luo, I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting."

The man known as "Young Master He" is none other than He Yinan, the eldest son of the He family in Beijing.
