Chapter 385 New and Old Grudges?

It's not yet early summer, and as a coastal city, Jiangdu's weather is naturally far from getting hot.

However, the humidity has already started to remain high.

If you want to change the clothes in your wardrobe for the purpose of changing seasons, such as replacing winter clothes with spring and summer clothes, you must first expose the winter clothes to the sun for a day before putting them away, otherwise no one knows where black spots will grow on them.

In this kind of weather, the spider plants inside the police station are thoroughly enjoying themselves.

The calves and horses, dressed in navy blue uniforms, looked rather distressed by the weather.

This is especially true for young people who came from northern or other inland cities to take exams or be assigned to these places.

"Who secretly turned on the air conditioner again? It's only the beginning of the month, why are they turning it on?"

A stern voice suddenly rang out.

"Only the dehumidifier is on..." a weak, young, and soft voice rang out.

"Captain Sun, I opened a bag of cookies this morning, then suddenly got a phone call and got busy. When I remembered them at noon and went to eat them, they weren't crispy anymore..."

Seeing that the speaker was a young and beautiful policewoman from out of town, Captain Sun's voice softened slightly, but he still solemnly warned her:
"Recently, the higher authorities issued a document on low-carbon and environmentally friendly practices. Turning on the air conditioner at this time wastes electricity. If we get caught, it will be hard to say what will happen in the end-of-quarter evaluation of our spiritual civilization..."

The young policewoman looked dejected.

Team Leader Sun felt a pang of pity and thought for a moment before saying, "What flavor are your cookies? I've been busy since morning, and if they're wilted and you don't want to eat them..."

The young policewoman from out of town adopted a terrified expression.

I'm feeling a bit homesick.

Just as Captain Sun was about to say something more, he suddenly saw the young policewoman's expression turn serious.

Years of criminal investigation experience made him instinctively straighten his body, and he followed up a back turn with a salute.

"Director Xia."

"Hmm." Xia Yuefeng strode into the office, stopped, and looked around thoughtfully.

Captain Sun and the young policewoman both tensed up.

Xia Yuefeng merely glanced around, said nothing more, and then strode into his office.

Sun, the team leader, and the young policewoman were left looking at each other in bewilderment, along with their colleagues who had peeked out from all around after hearing the commotion.

"Is Director Xia...?" The policewoman hesitated.

"Yes," Captain Sun answered quickly, "That's Director Xia."

He then rushed forward and turned off the air conditioner.

The policewoman looked like the sky had fallen.

Team Leader Sun reassured him, "It's alright, they just saw it but didn't point it out, it's not a big problem."

"It's also possible that we'll settle things all at once when something really goes wrong," another shoulder and head in a blue uniform peeked out from the side, adding.

The policewoman missed home even more.

Another head in uniform popped out from the side: "But didn't Director Xia have an appointment to go to the hospital to see about his back injury today? I even checked his schedule with him. Why is he back?"

The policewoman nodded repeatedly: "I only turned on the air conditioning because I knew Director Xia wasn't here today, otherwise..."

As a result, they were caught red-handed.

Now that things have come to this, the group of blue uniforms immediately restored their spirits and morale.

Meanwhile, a few of the uneasy individuals huddled together and started plotting.

"Captain Sun, why don't you try to find out how Director Xia is feeling today? I'm feeling uneasy about this."

"It should be pretty good, right? Didn't Director Xia personally arrest a professor at Jiang University a while ago? I heard he even used a grappling technique. You could tell from his expression when he came back that he was completely satisfied..."

"No, that day was actually a bit unpleasant." Captain Sun's expression turned serious as he corrected, "At the time, Director Xia sent two people, but he couldn't keep an eye on either of them, and the suspect almost committed suicide out of guilt."

"Hiss..." The uniformed men sitting around gasped.

"Was he one of your men, Captain Sun?" "Of course not, otherwise I would have been reassigned to direct traffic by now." Captain Sun looked relieved, then immediately became serious. "Besides that, there was another unexpected event at the time."

"When that accident happened, Director Xia's expression was very similar to today's."

Mature adults are often half-psychologists, let alone someone like Captain Sun.

Basic facial expression contrasts come naturally to him.

"What was the other surprise?"

The uniformed students crowded around, their expressions eager to learn.

"Because of Xia," Captain Sun said.

The expressions on everyone's faces turned worried.

They clearly all knew who the nickname Sun was referring to was.

"Tian Tian?" the policewoman exclaimed softly, her face filled with worry. "What happened to her?"

Captain Sun slowly shook his head: "No, strictly speaking, it's not 'what happened to Xia,' but 'what happened to a man related to Xia.'"

No one who can stay in this office is simple-minded or slow-witted.

Even though Captain Sun's words were somewhat broken and sounded like a riddle, everyone else immediately understood the meaning behind them.

"So, Director Xia's emotional change today is because of...?" a uniformed man realized.

Team Leader Sun nodded silently.

"So, Director Xia didn't go to the hospital today and came back early because...?" The policewoman took a big bite of the no-longer-crisp biscuit.

Team Leader Sun nodded again.

The young policewoman gritted her teeth: "Tian Tian is a grown woman now... No wonder Director Xia... Damn it."

"I want to see what kind of man has made such a mess of our station. Every day's events are one thing, today's events are another, new grudges plus old ones... Captain Sun, do you know that man's name?"

Captain Sun looked at the young policewoman as if she were an idiot. This kind of thing is best left unsaid; there's no way he would reveal her real name.

“That person is one of the witnesses in the ‘Jiang University professor case,’ and a key witness at that. How could I possibly know his name…”

"Old Sun!"

Xia Yuefeng's voice suddenly rang out, startling the uniformed men who had been gathered together.

Given their vigilance, even in the office or while gossiping, they were still approached so silently.

As expected of Director Xia. Everyone sighed with admiration, tears welling in their eyes.

Team Leader Sun slowly turned his head: "Director Xia... what are your instructions?"

"There's a guy named Nan Zhuren downstairs, look for him. Don't let him wander off, just bring him to my office."

"Yes!" The reply was short and firm. "But Director Xia, what does that person look like? Is he with the gatekeeper now?"

"...You'll see when you see it."

Watching Xia Yuefeng's departing figure, the uniformed men who had just scattered like birds and beasts gathered around again, seemingly lost in thought.

"Director Xia's expression... Could this 'Nan Zhuren' who came be that man?"

"The name sounds familiar..."

The policewoman took a deep breath: "New grudges plus old ones!"

five minutes later.

Step—step—step—

Looking at the young man who followed Captain Sun in.

The policewoman looked at the cookie in her hand: "I think I've already forgiven him."
