Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 565 I'm afraid you won't believe me if I tell you the truth.

Can you chat?
Lu Zhongxin rolled his eyes at Ma Jian.

Are there some things that can be taught?

As a veteran detective, are you questioning your own intelligence or doubting my abilities by asking such a question?
"The master leads you through the door, but the practice is up to you."

Lu Zhongxin said with a calm expression:

“My apprentice’s grades were just average when he was in police academy. He was just an ordinary student. He didn’t show any outstanding performance during his months of internship in the public security brigade.”

At this point, Lü Zhongxin suddenly seemed to remember something, a look of confusion on his face, and then he continued:

"That's really strange. How come he's solved so many major cases since he started working with me?"

"Did he finally understand, or was it because someone taught him well?"

Why is he talking about Versailles? This is the first time Ma Jian and Liu Miao have seen Lü Zhongxin act like a child throwing a tantrum.

"Old Lu, don't misunderstand," Ma Jian quickly explained.

"I really didn't mean anything by it. Look, we're all around the same age. Liu Miao and I are also working on cases with Yu Dazhang."

"His ability is a good thing for us."

As he spoke, a smile unconsciously appeared on his face:

"Since I met him, I have received the Second-Class Merit Citation twice, which was something I never dared to dream of before."

Speaking of this, Liu Miao glanced at him, her eyes filled with envy.

Compared to Ma Jian, he joined Yu Dazhang later. Although he also received a second-class merit award, he was ultimately a step too late.

That's more like it... When Lü Zhongxin heard him praising Yu Dazhang, he straightened his back considerably and became somewhat smug.

Although he is a bit rigid, he still enjoys it when others praise his apprentices.

Before the three of them had even finished their cigarettes, Wei Qian strode up from downstairs.

Where is Yu Dazhang?

After Wei Qian came up, he looked around:
"I just called him, but his phone is off."

Seeing Wei's anxious expression, Lü Zhongxin quickly pointed inside the house:

"He's dozing off inside; his phone's probably dead."

For smartphones, one day is basically the limit.

The fact that it lasted for two days and one night shows that Yu Dazhang's phone is quite powerful.

Upon entering the room, Wei Qian glanced at Yu Dazhang, who was lying face up, walked over, and gave him a push.

Yu Dazhang wasn't sleeping soundly to begin with, and the sudden push triggered a stress response.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes and grabbed Wei Qian's wrist. At the same time, his other hand quickly reached for Wei Qian's throat.

"grass!"

Wei Qian tried to raise his hand to block, but Yu Dazhang was too fast. The moment he raised his hand, a fat hand had already grabbed his throat.

"Yu Dazhang!!"

Lu Zhongxin immediately shouted and rushed towards his apprentice along with Ma Jian and the others.

At that moment, all three of them had their hair standing on end.

Others might not know, but the three of them knew all about Yu Dazhang's background.

This fat guy is capable of anything when under stress.

Fortunately, Lü Zhongxin shouted that, and Yu Dazhang immediately came to his senses.

"Captain Wei?"

He released his grip and asked in confusion:
"Why are you holding me?"

Lu Zhongxin and the others then came to stand between the two.

Seeing that Da Zhang had let go, all three of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll arrest you?"

Although Yu Dazhang only choked him once, Wei Qian still felt as if his neck was bound by an iron hoop, causing him to stop breathing and feel suffocated for a moment.

Wei Qian's face flushed red, and he glared at Yu Dazhang with annoyance:

"Are you still half asleep? Why are you reacting so strongly?" He didn't take it to heart, and after taking a deep breath, his complexion returned to normal.

"Come with me, the Municipal Bureau has given orders; Director Liu wants to see you."

"Can we do it another day?" Yu Dazhang asked, yawning as he felt his eyes were about to close.
"I'm so sleepy."

“Here, you can talk to Director Liu yourself.” Wei Qian handed over his phone.

Should I dial the number for you?

Yu Dazhang was just venting; naturally, he wouldn't dare refuse Director Liu's request to see him.

Fifteen minutes later.

Municipal Bureau.

Inside the director's office.

"Alright, stop standing there."

Director Liu pointed to the chair opposite his desk and said with a smile:

"sit down."

After Yu Dazhang sat down, Director Liu looked him over, nodded, and said with satisfaction:
"You didn't disappoint me. You captured all three fugitives in just over ten hours. I'm curious, how did you find the clues?"

I used the rebirth benefits... Yu Dazhang doesn't like to lie, but sometimes no one will believe him even if he tells the truth.

Just like now.

If I told you I was reborn, would you believe me?

Would you believe me if I said I was a human-shaped police dog?
You shouldn't even be asking. Just catch the person and that's enough... Yu Dazhang thought to himself as he tried to come up with a solution.

Once a person loses their sense of tension, their brain becomes sluggish.

"Well..."

He hesitated for a long time before finally coming up with this sentence:
"At the detention center, I noticed that a suspect seemed flustered, so I interrogated him and got the truth out of him right away."

Upon hearing this, Director Liu put down the cigarette he had already put in his mouth.

He stared at Yu Dazhang, hesitated for a moment, and then put the cigarette to his lips again.

But then, for some reason, he put it down again.

After repeating this several times, he finally spoke:
Do you think I'm stupid?

"No, no," Yu Dazhang quickly shook his head in denial.

"How dare I."

This scare jolted him awake, his mind racing as he tried to figure out where he had slipped up.

should be no problem.

We did find a breakthrough from Zhang Yanlong.

It was from him that they learned about the Xishan Catholic Church. Although the location was made up by Zhang Yanlong, the fugitives took it seriously.

From a procedural standpoint, all of this makes sense.

"Before you, the Criminal Investigation Division had its captain personally lead a team to the detention center to look for clues."

Director Liu, holding a cigarette, stared at Yu Dazhang and said:
"They also interrogated the fugitive's cellmates, questioning each of them, but found no valuable clues."

His voice was deep and serious:
"But you spotted the suspicious person at a glance and got the whole story out of him."

Director Liu's gaze sharpened, and he looked directly at Yu Dazhang:
"You explained it all with just a casual remark about looking flustered."

"In your eyes, am I, the bureau chief, particularly easy to fool?"

Why is he taking this so seriously...? Yu Dazhang had always thought that Director Liu was an easy-going leader, so why is he suddenly being so difficult today?
Everyone's pretty tired, there's no need for that.

In fact, making up stories takes more brainpower than solving cases, a fact that Yu Dazhang now deeply understands.

"I must make one point."

Yu Dazhang forced himself to speak:

“When I was in the cell, I didn’t just look at the suspect once and I identified him; in fact, I looked at him several times.”
