Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 577 I, Fat Tiger, am a normal man!
on the way back.

How do you know that's not real gas?

Lü Zhongxin didn't believe Yu Dazhang could smell it.

Anyone with a little common sense knows that gas is colorless and odorless, and you can't smell anything else under the cover of that pungent odor.

He panicked.

Yu Dazhang explained:

"Judging from his expression, it was clearly a bluff, but his hand holding the lighter was very steady."

"This shows that he knew he was not in any danger; what he was really afraid of was us."

This explanation is a bit far-fetched... Lu Zhongxin and the two other team members both felt that this statement was not very credible.

While not every criminal investigator can read micro-expressions, they can still perform basic observation and understanding.

Anyone could see that the other party was panicked, but there was absolutely no sign of them bluffing.

"Is that how you made that judgment?"

When Lü Zhongxin asked this question, sweat began to bead on his forehead.

“That’s right,” Yu Dazhang replied.
“If he panics, there’s definitely something wrong.”

I was even more panicked than him... Lu Zhongxin was so angry he almost cursed.

If there really had been a gas leak, we would probably all have been killed in the restaurant by now.

Luckily, the kid guessed right.

"Are you really going to help him get his wages?"

Lu Zhongxin changed the subject, saying that his apprentice was a man of his word, and that once he said something, he would definitely do it.

So far, he has never seen his apprentice break his word.

"Is it troublesome?"

Yu Dazhang answered truthfully:

"I will try my best. If I really can't get it back, I'll just have to let it go. Master, you know that our identities are too sensitive. We have to protect ourselves before meddling in other people's business."

after get off work.

Yu Dazhang got into the car and called Qu Tuotuo.

"I'll come pick you up, something's come up."

"I'm a little tired," Qu Tuotuo declined.
"I want to go home and rest early."

Yu Dazhang knew immediately that she was just giving him a perfunctory answer, so he loudly emphasized:

"I really have something important to do."

For the past two weeks, he had been looking for an opportunity to strike, but he had not succeeded.

Several of these incidents were caused by her best friend interfering.

Qu Tuotuo also noticed his covetous gaze, so he had been avoiding him for the past two days, hoping to calm him down.

"Why can't we talk about important matters over the phone?"

She is very vigilant.

As she got to know him better, she discovered that Yu Dazhang was incredibly strong.

Several times, before she could even react, Yu Dazhang had already picked her up.

For someone of her weight, it was like lifting a chick for her; it was effortless.

Therefore, Qu Tuotuo also realized that if Yu Dazhang really couldn't hold back one day, it seemed that she wouldn't even be able to resist.

"Something extremely important!"

Yu Dazhang was displeased. Why was he being treated like a thief? Was it really necessary? They hadn't seen each other for two days.

He feared that the closeness he had painstakingly built up would revert to its previous state.

Although I haven't succeeded yet, at least I can kiss, hug, and lift him up high now.

"Oh well."

Seeing that Da Zhang's tone was unfriendly, Qu Tuotuo had no choice but to agree:
"Come pick me up, let's find a restaurant."

For her now, public places are the safest.

"I'll cook for you myself," Yu Dazhang suggested.

Qu Tuotuo knew exactly what he was thinking, so he deliberately lowered his voice:
"I can't drink anything cold today."

"Oh." Yu Dazhang didn't insist anymore.
"Let's go to a restaurant then."

Inside a Chinese restaurant in Hongkou District.

The two sat opposite each other.

Before the food was served, Yu Dazhang explained the situation clearly. He hoped that Qu Tuotuo would seek help from their company's legal department to get the man's wages back.

As a police officer, he naturally thought of using proper methods.

But it must be admitted that when it comes to using legal means, he is really not as good as Qu Tuotuo.

The previous staged accident incident had shown him how terrifying capital could be.

It's easy to imagine that if someone falls down again, Qu Tuotuo will still go to help them, even if she knows the other person is trying to scam her.

Without swift and decisive action, one cannot act with the compassion of a bodhisattva.

She is a typical example.

If you want to extort money, come on, the entire group's legal department will be there to fight you to the end.

"Is that all?"

Qu Tuotuo didn't care at all:
"Then you've come to the right person. The company's legal counsel is best at handling debt disputes."

"You can compile a detailed report and give it to me later. That will be considered a collaboration between the police and the public."

It was indeed very easy... Yu Dazhang had anticipated this outcome before he came.

The restaurant owner is also a businessman, so naturally he wouldn't dare to go head-to-head with the law.

If that man had a stronger sense of the law, he wouldn't have done something so foolish.

However, ordinary people don't usually have access to the legal system, and they believe that as long as they call the police, someone will stand up for them.

Little did they know, that was only the first step.

If you encounter a major problem, the one who can truly support you is your lawyer; a good lawyer can really turn the tide.

The Jinhua parrot case from back then.

The parties involved all pleaded guilty, but the female lawyer posed a crucial question in court: "The parrot was only submitted for testing in photos, not in its live state. How could DNA be determined from photos?"
With just one sentence, the case was completely reversed, and the person involved was ultimately found not guilty.

The highest level of criminal defense: Even if you confess, I can still get you out of trouble.

After finishing their meal, the two walked out of the restaurant.

Yu Dazhang took out his car keys:

"I'll walk you home."

Now that they were out, Qu Tuotuo wanted to spend a little more time with him:
"No rush, we just finished eating, let's find a place to sit for a while."

During the meal, she noticed that Yu Dazhang was a bit aloof today; after finishing their business, he didn't say much.

"You can't drink anything cold anymore, so it's better if you stay outside less and go home to rest early."

Yu Dazhang seemed uninterested and somewhat listless.
"Contact me again after you've recovered."

"What are you saying?" Qu Tuotuo glared at him and said.
"You weren't like this before."

She believes that the relationship between men and women should focus more on exchanging feelings rather than on other things.

Moreover, she also discovered that Yu Dazhang had changed a lot.

Since the engagement, he has spoken less and acted more.

When the two of them are close together, his eyes light up; if they are just chatting, he becomes lifeless.

"I've always been like this."

Yu Dazhang was too lazy to explain:

"All my reactions were those of a normal man."

He also had his reasons.

They're already engaged, but they haven't done anything yet.

If word gets out, people will think there's something wrong with him.

The next day.

Province S.

A somber atmosphere pervaded the conference room of the provincial government.

The middle-aged man sitting at the head of the conference table had a deep frown on his face as he looked at the documents in his hands.

A moment later, he slammed the document on the table and shouted:

"After a whole day, all you've found is this little bit of information. What I need are clues, the whereabouts of the female student, not this irrelevant data!"

"What good is finding the school bus? I need you to find those 14 female students!"

Faced with the man's anger, everyone in the meeting room lowered their heads.

After a moment, Captain Xu, who was sitting beside the man, carefully spoke:

"I believe this was a premeditated kidnapping..."
