Thinking of Zhou Mochen's cunning politician face, Qin Huanyu felt a surge of satisfaction, as if she could add fuel to the fire.
She did agree not to pursue Zhou Mochen's protection of the smuggling of contraband, but she didn't say she wouldn't interfere with Luo Mo's company's drug production and sales... Although it wasn't her place to handle this matter, she could still write another report for the investigation bureau and provide some clues.
Thinking of this, Qin Huanyu instructed Xiao Liu again:
"I'll have to trouble you guys today. Go to a few more police stations and get the details of all the thefts and robberies that have happened in the last couple of days. Make a note of any suspects who are drug addicts, and make sure the evidence is solid. I need it for my report tonight."
"Yes, Sister Yu!"
Without hesitation, Xiao Liu agreed and prepared to get to work.
"Wait a minute."
Qin Huanyu suddenly remembered something and called out to Xiao Liu:
"Did those idiots from last night explain why they went to rob Zuixianlou? Normally, even if someone is broke, they wouldn't dare to rob such a big store with a knife and a steel pipe, would they?"
"Of course we asked, and this matter is rather strange, Sister Yu."
Xiao Liu quickly replied:
"They said that around 8 p.m., they robbed a young man in a relatively secluded area near Zuixianlou. The young man was quite generous and gave them all the cash he had on him. He also transferred 10,000 yuan to them via his mobile phone and told them about a good way to get rich quickly."
"That 'good idea' isn't going to be robbing the Drunken Immortal Restaurant, is it?"
Qin Huanyu asked, speechless.
"That's true."
Xiao Liu shrugged:
"The young man told them that only rich people frequented Zuixianlou, and that the police were off duty at midnight, so they could rob someone and run away with a high success rate... Perhaps the young man was really good at conning people, or perhaps the addicts had been driven crazy by withdrawal symptoms, but in any case, they really believed him and did it."
"What an idiot!"
Qin Huanyu made a sarcastic remark about the drug addicts, then asked:
"Did you find out the young man's identity? He was robbed of a lot of money himself, so didn't he report it to the police?"
"No."
Xiao Liu shook his head:
“The memories of the drug addicts are unreliable, their descriptions of the young man are very vague, and no one came to the police station to report the incident afterward.”
"Then this young man's behavior is a bit suspicious. What exactly is he... um?"
Qin Huanyu seemed to have thought of something, pondered for a moment, and then gave the order:
"Once you and Xiao Liu finish what you're doing and have some time, you can take a look at the street surveillance footage near Zuixianlou, especially the time when we entered Zuixianlou."
"I have a guess... Do you think that young man recognized us at the entrance of Zuixianlou and deliberately directed those idiots to rob Zuixianlou, letting them walk right into his trap?"
"That...it really is possible."
Xiao Liu thought for a moment and said:
“Sister Yu, your reputation as the number one policewoman in Shengzhou is already quite well-known. Some people even consider watching you patrol on your bicycle as a must-do activity when visiting Baiguang City… Even if you were in plain clothes last night, it’s not surprising that you were recognized… I understand. I will arrange for someone to investigate this matter later.”
After visiting the police station and assigning tasks to his underlings, Qin Huanyu rode her bicycle to Zuixianlou again to talk to Miss Zheyuan.
Miss Zheyuan clearly held a high position at Zuixianlou. They didn't even need to look for other places; the two met in a private booth on the second floor of Zuixianlou, even though Zuixianlou hadn't opened yet.
Since both of them were speaking with goodwill, no conflict was bound to occur.
The beginning was, unsurprisingly, a mutual compliment, with each person praising the other's good looks.
Afterwards, Miss Zhe Yuan said that Officer Qin was young and promising, and would surely achieve great things in the future, becoming a pillar of the Investigation Bureau. Qin Huanyu, in turn, expressed that he was amazed by Miss Zhe Yuan's dancing skills, saying that such a wonderful dance would one day become famous throughout the world and occupy a place in the entire history of art.
After a long exchange of compliments, Qin Huanyu finally got to the point:
"After returning home last night, I did some research on Miss Zhe Yuan's background. I know that you have repeatedly slain demons and protected the people in various places, which I greatly admire. But I wonder why you came to Baiguang City this time...?"
"It's probably just intuition."
Miss Zheyuan sipped her tea with great elegance:
"To be honest, Officer Qin, I have a very subtle intuition that I can foresee which places will experience more supernatural events in the coming period of time... That's why I'm here, and I'm willing to share your burdens, Officer Qin."
"You mean..."
Qin Huanyu's brows furrowed immediately:
"A lot of supernatural cases are going to break out in Baiguang City in the coming period? Really? Why Baiguang City? It's just an ordinary third-tier city!"
"I'm not entirely sure of the specific reasons; I'm just trusting my intuition."
Miss Zheyuan's smile remained elegant:
"Actually, I should have come to Baiguang City a long time ago. Haven't you noticed, Officer Qin? Since you became an investigator, Baiguang City has become a hotspot for supernatural cases."
So you mean you still blame me?
Qin Huanyu said irritably.
"I dare not, I am merely stating the facts."
Miss Zheyuan chuckled, seemingly worried that Qin Huanyu would be annoyed, and quickly changed the subject:
"By the way, because I've been traveling around the martial arts world for a long time, my intelligence on certain matters might be more up-to-date than the Investigation Bureau's database. If Officer Qin needs any help in this area in the future, he can come to me... I only have one request."
"what's up?"
Qin Huanyu had a pretty good idea of what was going on, but she still asked the question.
"It's very simple."
Despite still using the rather weak self-reference of "this concubine," a chilling light suddenly flashed in Miss Zheyuan's eyes, and her entire body exuded a murderous aura.
"If there are any supernatural cases involving evil spirits or bizarre occurrences, please take me with you, Officer Qin! Only by tearing them all apart with my own hands can I alleviate the pain deep within my heart."
"This……"
Qin Huanyu hesitated for a moment.
To put it bluntly, Miss Zhe Yuan's condition was that she was willing to act as a henchman for free. Qin Huanyu really couldn't find a reason to refuse, and the Investigation Bureau's database also suggested that Miss Zhe Yuan could be invited to help when fighting monsters and evil creatures.
"Ok."
So Qin Huanyu agreed.
"Thank you, Officer Qin. I knew you were a reasonable person."
Miss Zheyuan's face once again broke into a bright smile:
"To repay Officer Qin for his understanding, I will give him a piece of information... The sorcerer who solved the disappearance of the train carriage is still in Baiguang City."
"Oh?"
Qin Huanyu's eyes lit up immediately:
"Miss Zhe Yuan, do you know that guy? You've met him? Could you tell me more about him? I promise I'll take you with me next time I'm slaying demons!"
"Hmm...actually, I don't know that much either."
Miss Zheyuan hesitated for a moment, but still continued speaking:
“I have never met him in person, but I know this person… In a strict sense, he is my kind, both of us are people who are single-mindedly seeking revenge. However, my targets of revenge are evil creatures and monsters, while his targets of revenge are all drug dealers, for which he does not hesitate to practice evil magic.”
"Avengers targeting drug dealers, huh... I understand."
Qin Huanyu nodded thoughtfully.
. . . . .
After a fairly pleasant meeting with Miss Zhe Yuan, Qin Huanyu went out on patrol by bicycle in the afternoon, taking photos with many fans who came to see her and leaving many autographs.
"Why do I feel like I'm becoming more and more of an idol while working as a police officer..."
After returning to the villa in Baibo Huafu, Qin Huanyu began writing a report again. The main focus of this report was the possibility that Rama, a wealthy merchant from Yinzhou, was a major drug dealer, and she listed all the results of her investigation.
The investigation bureau quickly responded to Qin Huanyu's report, the contents of which surprised her somewhat.
The Investigation Bureau stated that they had known for some time that Rama was actually a major drug dealer. Narcotics investigators had long suspected Rama, but had lacked evidence.
It wasn't until this disappearance of the train carriage that the anti-narcotics investigators made a breakthrough. They now have irrefutable evidence of Rama's drug production and sales, and have even uncovered his protectors. A large-scale operation to apprehend them will be launched soon.
The investigation bureau also said that Qin Huanyu could look forward to it, as the official government of the Holy Zhou Kingdom was preparing a grand event, which would be broadcast live globally.
"Hehe, I'll buy drinks, snacks, and fruit now, and get ready to watch the show!"
Seeing this, Qin Huanyu was completely relieved and waited to watch the show.
. . . . .
Indiana County.
The wealthy merchant Rama has been in a panic these past two days.
After the disappearance of the train carriage was exposed, he was somewhat uneasy, always feeling that what he had done would be punished by the Holy Zhou Kingdom... Even with a high-ranking official of the Holy Zhou Kingdom as his protector, he still could not eliminate this unease.
A merchant of Rama's stature would naturally be aware of supernatural powers, and he even employed two sorcerers, which gave him the confidence to do all sorts of things.
But the two sorcerers he employed have gone missing one after the other in the last two days.
Sorcerers all have a lot of bad habits. For example, the two sorcerers that Rama kept were a gambler and a seditionist.
But for Rama, this was not a disadvantage, but rather an advantage. He had plenty of money, and with money, he would naturally not lack beautiful women. Using this method, he could win over two extraordinary individuals to serve him, which was a highly profitable deal for Rama.
But after being targeted by the investigation bureau, Rama discovered that the sorcerers he had raised were probably weaklings among the superhumans, and they disappeared without a trace.
The first to disappear was that wicked sorcerer. The day before yesterday afternoon, he said he had found a particularly attractive and beautiful nun on the street and planned to have some fun with her, so he asked for a night off.
Unexpectedly, they never returned, neither alive nor dead.
After that, the gambling sorcerer became alert and hid in a villa in the suburbs with more than a dozen elite gunmen. They stayed in the villa and played online gambling.
Unexpectedly, after another night, the gambling sorcerer was also gone, along with the dozen or so elite gunmen and the entire villa... The area was as if it had been trampled by the legendary monster Godzilla, completely reduced to dust by pure violence, and nothing was left.
Rama finally realized that the Holy Zhou Kingdom was about to make a move against him. First, they would use their supernatural powers to eliminate the two sorcerers around him, and then they would deal with him.
As a major drug lord, Rama also employed thousands of gunmen. He didn't take ordinary police stations seriously, but he wasn't arrogant enough to think he could fight against the army.
In this moment of crisis, Rama's first thought was to run away! He quickly tried to contact his protectors in the high-ranking officials of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, hoping to get some inside information.
I never expected that even the protective umbrella would go missing!
That was a high-ranking official of the second rank in the Holy Zhou Kingdom! How could he just disappear without a trace?
Rama was completely panicked.
He wanted to leave the country, but the borders of the Holy Zhou Kingdom were too vast, and he couldn't escape.
At this time, taking a commercial airliner would be like walking into a trap, while taking a private plane would most likely result in it being shot down without mercy by anti-aircraft missiles.
Left with no other option, Rama gathered his most loyal thousands of warriors and hid in the deep mountains where he cultivated large quantities of hallucinogenic powder, intending to put up a last-ditch resistance.
. . . . .
Baiguang City.
Three days after meeting and talking with Miss Zhe Yuan, Qin Huanyu saw a big news story, a big news story that left her a little dumbfounded.
When the Minister of Works of the Holy Zhou Dynasty and his family were traveling by plane, the plane unfortunately crashed.
The crew chose to evacuate after the accident, and apart from one unlucky flight attendant who twisted her ankle upon landing, no one else was injured.
The entire family of the Minister of Works perished, including Zhou Mocheng, the deputy director of the Railway Bureau, who was having a long talk with his father-in-law at the time.
Following the incident, Princess Wu Xiqun of the Imperial Family personally expressed her deepest condolences to the Minister of Works and his family, who tragically perished. She also ordered the suspension of all entertainment activities nationwide for a day to mourn the victims. In accordance with ancient custom, she bestowed upon the Minister of Works an additional noble title, reflecting her royal status.
People were discussing the matter extensively, but didn't criticize the parachuting crew members too much, since everyone has the right to survive.
Some people have suggested that perhaps all high-ranking officials in the Holy Zhou Kingdom should practice parachuting in the future, otherwise they would be too helpless if they encountered such a situation again.
The high-ranking officials of the Holy Zhou Kingdom, who knew the whole truth, could only smile bitterly to themselves.
Practice skydiving? What's the point of practicing skydiving?!
When you are unfortunately killed in a plane crash, even if you can parachute, or even if you can fly, you will still die!
Weren't those politicians who once wanted to completely reform the system of the Holy Zhou Kingdom and put the royal power in a cage just like that? Compared to dying by suicide from a gunshot wound to the back of the head or drowning in a pond that is only half a meter deep, dying by plane is already quite dignified.
Of course, this Minister of Works was different. He died not because he offended the imperial power, but because he had committed an unforgivable mistake.
If his crimes are made public, it may discourage the public—if even the Minister of Works would protect a major drug lord, who else can be trusted?
Therefore, allowing the Minister of Works and his family to die in a plane crash, in a dignified manner, is something that everyone can accept.
