After the kitten became a spirit, it led the police team with its kind

Chapter 174 She is independent and free.
Zhou Zhinan held Zhou Xiaohua in his arms. He still didn't know exactly what had happened, but he knew that Zhou Xiaohua was in a very bad mood.

He didn't speak, but quickly racked his brains for possible reasons that might have upset Zhou Xiaohua.

For a while, I had no clue what to do.

But Zhou Zhinan didn't have much time to speculate at the moment; after breakfast, they still had to go to the bureau.

Although it has been confirmed that a strange beast was involved in this case, it doesn't end there yet. It still depends on how the higher-ups arrange things, so Zhou Zhinan is still quite busy.

Breakfast wasn't prepared by Aunt Tang, but rather sent over by the restaurant at Zhou Zhinan's request. It actually tasted pretty good, but Zhou Xiaohua didn't seem to have a very good appetite.

Zhou Zhinan didn't try to persuade her, but simply packed the food for Zhou Xiaohua to eat when she got hungry.

When Zhou Zhinan arrived at the police station parking lot, he saw Xue Ning and Chen Meiqiu getting out of the red sports car. Now, seeing them again, Zhou Zhinan was no longer surprised.

They had obviously seen Zhou Zhinan's car, so they didn't rush to leave and just stood a short distance away waiting.

Soon Zhou Zhinan and Zhou Xiaohua got out of the car, but Zhou Xiaohua was clearly in a low mood today and didn't want to walk by herself, so she wanted Zhou Zhinan to carry her.

Zhou Zhinan had no choice but to hold her.

"Good morning, Captain Zhou." Xue Ning greeted him casually from a distance.

Zhou Zhinan nodded slightly, his tone equally indifferent, "Good morning."

Xue Ning then looked at the little flower perched on Zhou Zhinan's shoulder, "Good morning, Flower."

Xiaohua is a polite cat. In the past, whenever someone greeted her, she would respond regardless of whether the other person understood or not.

But she didn't want to greet Xue Ning today.

Although her bad mood seemed to have nothing to do with Xue Ning, she secretly felt that it might be related.

In short, she doesn't want to talk to anyone right now, not just Xue Ning, but everyone.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaohua was ignoring her, Xue Ning couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "What's wrong with Xiaohua?"

Zhou Zhinan glanced at the little one in his arms and said somewhat perfunctorily, "Maybe he didn't sleep well."

Xue Ning blinked, it was impossible to tell whether she believed it or not.

As they passed by the parking lot, some people saw Zhou Zhinan carrying Zhou Xiaohua and couldn't help but ask, "What happened to Xiaohua?"

Why does Hua Hua look unhappy today?

"Is Hua Hua feeling unwell?"

Zhou Zhinan gave a unified reply, "I guess they didn't sleep well."

Back in his office, Zhou Zhinan put Zhou Xiaohua down and said, "I have to get back to work. Are you alright here by yourself?"

"Meow~"

"it is good."

Seeing that Zhou Xiaohua made no other move, Zhou Zhinan took it as a yes and began to get down to business.

But the case has become very strange at this point. He knew the inside story, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but the others in the team didn't know and were completely at a loss when faced with such a case.

"What's the current status of this case? Are you taking over?" Zhou Zhinan asked Xue Ning in the private office.

Xue Ning nodded. "That's what we're here to talk about today. You don't need to follow up on this case anymore. Just hand it over to our special investigation team."

Zhou Zhinan nodded and asked again, "Does Director Zhang know about this?" The "knowing" Zhou Zhinan asked about wasn't just about the case being transferred to the Special Investigation Team, but also about the existence of the alien beast.

Xue Ning neither nodded nor shook her head, and said uncertainly, "I should know some of it, but I don't know the specifics."

Zhou Zhinan frowned slightly. "Should we explain this to Director Zhang?"

The case needs to be transferred to the special investigation team, and the procedure naturally has to go through Director Zhang.

"We'll handle it." Xue Ning is in charge of the special investigation team; as for what the higher-ups decide, that's their business.

"What's wrong with Zhou Xiaohua today? Is it because of what happened yesterday?" Xue Ning suddenly changed the subject.

Zhou Zhinan didn't answer immediately. He just looked at Xue Ning with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, "To be honest, I don't understand what you mean."

When Xue Ning heard this, she turned her head and smiled slightly, as if she really found it funny. After a few seconds, she turned back to look at Zhou Zhinan, but the smile on her face turned cold.

"I just want you to understand that your paths are ultimately different." She seemed to respect all their choices, but in Xue Ning's heart, they were not the same kind of people and should not live together at all.

"Zhou Xiaohua should go back to her own world." Beasts should stay with other beasts.

Xue Ning spoke calmly, but Zhou Zhinan saw the determination beneath her calm face.

He didn't think the reason was insufficient; on the contrary, he felt that having such a reason was enough.

Zhou Zhinan remained silent for a long while before saying in a deep voice, "You don't trust me, nor do you trust Zhou Xiaohua. You want her to return to her own world, but these are just your personal thoughts."

“She is independent and free. As long as she doesn’t hurt others, she can do whatever she wants, and no one has the right to make any decisions for her.” At least that’s what Zhou Zhinan thought.

Zhou Zhinan then said nothing more, nor did he look at Xue Ning's expression. He walked straight to the door, opened it, and went out.

Outside, Chen Meiqiu was trying to communicate with Zhou Xiaohua, but Zhou Xiaohua refused and didn't want to talk to him.

Chen Meiqiu just happened to see that she was unhappy, so he made a special effort to keep waving in front of her.

Little Flower wanted to reach out and scratch him, but she felt she couldn't beat him, so she kept holding back.

As soon as Zhou Zhinan came out, she felt like she had found a backer and ran straight towards him, meowing at him.

Zhou Zhinan looked up at Chen Meiqiu not far away and thought that Zhou Xiaohua should be cursing him at this moment.

"Alright." Zhou Zhinan patted Zhou Xiaohua's head reassuringly.

Chen Meiqiu stood to the side with a look of disdain.

It's like it doesn't have an owner.

His master used to treat him very well, much better than Zhou Zhinan treated Zhou Xiaohua!
Chen Meiqiu thought indignantly.

The case is very strange, and everyone in the team is very distressed, not knowing what to do.

Just when they were at their wits' end, their captain told them, "The case is no longer under investigation. All the information will be transferred to the special investigation team."

In fact, there is no need to transfer any information; it's just to make things seem more logical.

Ye Zihang, completely bewildered, asked, "Boss, what's going on? Is the Special Investigations Team stealing the case?"
