Chapter 162 Surprise Revealed
"Captain He, you flatter me. You go ahead with your work. I'll wait here for Uncle Wang. We're from the same neighborhood. I'll take him to the hospital later. It's late at night, and who knows what might happen if he walks there."

"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go listen and see what's going on."

There weren't many staff on duty, and three more people came in at once, so naturally no one was there to greet Bai Jing. Fortunately, Bai Jing was one of their own, and she knew how to treat her.

Bai Quanfu had learned a little about where his daughter worked.

Taking the hot water his daughter handed him, he smiled and said, "It seems you get along very well with your colleagues."

"Of course, I'm the youngest, and they all take good care of me." Except for their own heartless captain.

"That's good, that's good. You're more promising and capable than your father. Seeing you today puts my mind at ease."

Bai Quanfu looked gratified, even happier than if he had found a good job himself.

Just as the father and daughter were chatting, a group of night patrolmen returned.

It was someone I knew, from Bai Jing's team.

"Brother Xiao, are you on the night shift tonight?" Upon seeing the person who came in, Bai Jing immediately stood up and greeted him.

Xiao Jianwen had just shaken the snowflakes off his clothes when he heard a familiar voice. He turned around and saw, "Xiao Jing, what brings you here?" He was happy but also puzzled.

"You're not still patrolling so late at night, are you?" he asked uncertainly.

Bai Jing nodded. "I took a walk after dinner, and that's how this happened at my doorstep." She was also quite helpless. They had been safe for so many days, but unexpectedly, trouble still occurred at the end of the year.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Jianwen asked, puzzled. "Do you need my help?"

"No need, no need, I've handed the person over to Captain He. He's on duty at the bureau today." She didn't dare trouble Brother Xiao and the others, otherwise she wouldn't have a good New Year.

Upon hearing that the task had been handed over to Captain He, Xiao Jianwen felt relieved. "It's good to hand it over to Captain He, Captain He is great." He was happy, after all, who wouldn't want to stay home with their family during the Spring Festival?

"I knew Xiaojing cared about her brothers," Xiao Jianwen said, and the others with him laughed.

Of course, they also noticed the person standing next to Bai Jing.

Bai Jing immediately introduced them to each other, "Brother Xiao, Brother Zhu, and Brother Zhang, this is my dad, Dad, these are my colleagues on the same team as me, Brother Xiao, Brother Zhu, and Brother Zhang."

These days, most police officers are male, and you can't count many like Bai Jing in a whole city.

Bai Quanfu immediately greeted everyone, "Hello, thank you all for taking care of Xiao Jing." After saying that, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

The cigarettes were Zhonghua brand, which Bai Jing bought for her father to use when socializing with others.

Bai Quanfu cigarettes are always carried with him, but he might not be able to give away a single one for several days.

He's being quite generous today; he's taking out cigarettes to distribute to everyone.

"It's Uncle Bai! Thank you, thank you!" The group accepted the cigarettes with both hands, expressing their gratitude cheerfully.

"I should be thanking you. Xiaojing is young and has caused you a lot of trouble. Thank you for your concern."

Bai Quanfu still knows how to say polite things; he's not exactly unsophisticated.

As the group was chatting, Captain He arrived with Uncle Wang.

Seeing that they were chatting happily while smoking, he joined in.

"Oh, chatting."

Bai's father took out cigarettes, introduced himself, and then offered one to Captain He.

Naturally, Uncle Wang was not left out either.

Seeing that it was a good cigarette, the two took it and thanked Bai Quanfu.

After exchanging pleasantries, Captain He got down to business. "We've found out what happened. His child had a fight with her family and then ran away from home. She didn't drink alcohol; the alcohol was probably deliberately poured on her by the traffickers."

Captain He explained the situation to Bai Jing. "Your Captain Lin is so lucky, you even help him patrol during the New Year. Why am I so unlucky, I can't find such a considerate teammate."

Upon hearing this, the team members were nearly startled to their core.

Bai Jing was stunned. "Captain He, what do you mean by that?" Isn't this her task? Everyone has one.

If she heard correctly, she was working for Captain Lin?
"Ah." Captain He was taken aback, then chuckled at her bewildered expression. "You didn't know?"

"what do you know?"

"Haha, looks like you've tricked me again, Captain Lin." Captain He burst out laughing when he saw that she really didn't know.

Xiao Jianwen and his group tried to run away.

But, can they escape?

Bai Jing's eyes were blazing with fire.

"So, I did work for Captain Lin?" She wasn't stupid; she understood.

She turned to look at Brother Xiao and the others, only to see that they were all avoiding her gaze.

"Ha, well done." Bai Jing was really annoyed.

If Captain Lin had told her the truth, she might have agreed. But since he's lying to her like this, this isn't over.

Seeing Bai Jing's flushed face, Xiao Jianwen and the others immediately tried to quell the anger.

"Xiaojing, don't be angry. Captain Lin had no choice. He hasn't been back for many years. This year, he plans to go home to visit, which is why he had you cover his shift. But don't worry, he'll make it up to you next time."

Furthermore, Bai Jing didn't believe in her captain's character. "Brother Xiao, you don't need to say anything more. Do you believe this excuse?" Although she didn't know Captain Lin's background, Director Shao had often told her that Captain Lin would spend the Chinese New Year at his house.

Going home? Bullshit.

Who are you lying to?

Do you really think she's a child?

Seeing that he had failed to hide it, Xiao Jianwen looked at Captain He with a resentful expression.

He gestured to him with his eyes that he should clean up his own mess.

Captain He hadn't expected there to be such a thing going on; he thought Bai Jing was willing.

He had envied this for a long time, but he never expected that Lao Lin would do such a heartless thing. Tsk tsk, it's better for him not to get involved.

"Well, comrade, we understand the situation. We'll let you know when the results are out. I have other things to attend to, so I'll head over there now." He was better off running than not running, fearing he might be blamed later.

"Xiao Jing, remember to take Comrade Wang to the hospital later." After saying that, Captain He ran off and disappeared.

Xiao Jianwen and his companions wanted to run away, but they didn't dare.

They knew Bai Jing's capabilities very well; if she dared to run away, they wouldn't be colleagues next year.

"Xiao Jing, we only found out about this later. You can't blame us. Captain Lin told us not to say anything." The group swallowed hard, afraid that Bai Jing would punish them.

Bai Jing snorted, "Who knows?" She was in no good mood at all.

She felt she had to find something for Captain Lin to do, otherwise he would really think the New Year was so easy.

"Brother Xiao, you don't need to say anything more. I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now." After saying that, she pulled her father and Uncle Wang out.

She didn't even hear the shouts from Xiao Jianwen and the others behind her.

Only after leaving the police station and walking on the way to the hospital did Bai Quanfu finally ask the question out of fear.

"Xiaojing, isn't it bad to throw a tantrum like this?" He was afraid that his daughter would be misunderstood by her colleagues.
