Detective: I, Cao Jianjun, started by arresting my brother-in-law.

"If you are influenced by your subjective emotions, you will cause the case to develop in a bad direction when you are facing criminals."

"Let me give you an example. If the Green Vine case were to happen again, and you were a police officer..."

"If you were to intervene in the current situation, what would you do?"

"Can you analyze things calmly like the task force? When making the arrest, will you prioritize your own safety?"

"You wouldn't. If you were on a field mission, you would do anything to catch people, even if it meant sacrificing yourself, right?"

Xu Yingzi didn't think she had done anything wrong and blinked in confusion.

"Brother Cao, isn't this how a policeman should act?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Jianjun immediately laughed: "If it were always like this, who would dare to become a criminal police officer? The risk of death is so high."

Xu Yingzi fell silent.

It's unclear whether she agreed with Cao Jianjun's words or decided not to argue.

"How about this."

Cao Jianjun felt that verbal instruction alone was not very effective, so he decided to try a different approach.

“Sun Xing is going to be executed in the next few days in the provincial capital. You’re coming back with me.”

"How about I take you to see the execution process?"

Xu Yingzi suddenly looked up, her beautiful eyes instantly turning red, her emotions running high.

"it is good!"

She said that word through gritted teeth.

"Yingzi, if you want to be better, you must first let go of hatred."

Cao Jianjun took a deep breath and said with some sympathy, "It's cruel, but if you don't let go of your hatred, you'll be devoured by it."

"Once it really comes to that, all your current efforts will be in vain."

Xu Yingzi nodded and then fell silent.

"All right."

Seeing that there was no point in continuing the conversation, Cao Jianjun reached out and helped Xu Yingzi to her feet.

"Today is the director's 280th birthday retirement banquet, let's calm down first."

"Ah."

Xu Yingzi forcefully held back the tears welling up in her eyes.

Sun Xing was ultimately an enemy she couldn't forgive; all she could do was avoid implicating other innocent people.

The banquet at the hotel has already begun.

The director was surrounded by a crowd of people, and the old man, who was initially unwilling, was now beaming with joy.

Holding the microphone, he stood in the center of the room and began to speak.

"Um... well, I have something to say."

"I really knew nothing about this retirement farewell banquet before it happened."

"This morning, I was practically dragged here by Cao Jianjun and his wife..."

"Oh dear, after working as a policeman for forty years, I was just thinking about retiring and finally being able to take a good rest."

"As a result, you people have put me out there to be aired and exposed to the elements again."

"I want to curse you, but I also want to thank you. What can I say?"

As the director spoke, he smiled again, his eyes narrowing.

"Alright, anyway, I still have to thank you all. Thank you, kids, for your kindness."

"Everyone here came from Balihe. I've benefited from Balihe's influence, so I've lived a worthwhile life."

"Finally, I wish our Balihe Police Station peace and safety, and 100% public satisfaction..."

"Ideally, it would surpass Fengqiao and create a Balihe Police Station model, haha."

"Eat, eat."

The director was very approachable, especially in this kind of situation. He chatted and laughed, then took the microphone and returned to his seat.

260. After getting drunk, Xia Jie finally succeeded in taking advantage of me. [3 chapters, please subscribe]

The director's retirement farewell banquet was a great success.

At least for Cao Jianjun, Cheng Suo, and the others, this was the first time they had seen the station chief drunk since they entered the Balihe Police Station.

Moreover, he was so drunk that he was unconscious.

When the event ended, the director was carried home by his son, Wen Luyang.

The two children were also fussing for milk. Zhou Hui left even earlier than the director.

Director Song and the other police officers from out of town immediately left after the station chief departed.

When Cao Jianjun was about to leave, there were hardly any people left in the hotel.

In any case, this major event is now over.

Cao Jianjun pressed the remote control, opened the car door, and turned to leave, but a voice came from behind him.

"Brother Cao!"

Cao Jianjun knew who it was without even turning around.

Despite his best efforts to prevent it, he couldn't stop Xia Jie.

He had watched Xia Jie leave with Cheng and the others and was relieved at the time, but he never expected to be left alone and caught by her again.

Cao Jianjun could only smile slightly and turn around as if nothing was wrong.

"Xia Jie? You haven't left yet?"

"Brother Cao, can we talk?"

Xia Jie smiled somewhat awkwardly and looked around.

“Your sister-in-law is raising two children by herself, I really don’t have time.”

Cao Jianjun was a little afraid to face her, so he quickly made up an excuse.

Xia Jie nodded slightly and said, "I... just wanted to talk to you. You never reply when I send you WeChat messages."

"You know, I... I'm working like a dog in the provincial team."

Cao Jianjun looked at the time on his wristwatch; it was three o'clock in the afternoon.

The sun overhead was still scorching, and the two of them stood there like idiots, their foreheads soon covered in sweat.

"Go sit down over there."

Xia Jie stood with her hands behind her back, looking somewhat reserved, and pointed to the milk tea shop next door.

"also."

Cao Jianjun compromised.

He feels safe in public places.

The two crossed the road side by side. Xia Jie went into the store, ordered two drinks, removed the ice, and then brought them to Cao Jianjun.

With the parasol providing shade, the two slowly took their seats.

"Brother Cao, I'm sorry."

Xia Jie didn't drink the cold drink, and laughed self-deprecatingly: "I... went a little too far last time."

"What happened last time?"

Cao Jianjun pretended not to understand.

"At once…"

Xia Jie wanted to remind him, but seeing his expression, she understood and smiled in relief: "Never mind."

How is your mother?

Cao Jianjun deliberately changed the subject.

"I travel every day."

Xia Jie's eyes crinkled into crescent moons as she smiled: "Ever since Li Dawei's mother enlightened me, I've become a completely different person, and I'm getting married soon."

"Wow! That's fast?"

Cao Jianjun was surprised: "Then it looks like I'll have to prepare a gift of money."

"My mom needs a son-in-law more than anything..."

"..."

Why does this girl always kill the conversation?

Cao Jianjun casually remarked, "Then you'll have to work harder."
