“Uh, my apologies. I’m quite busy myself. Bai Wu went to a special school for about ten days. I didn’t mention this for fear that you wouldn’t take him in after finding out about this,” Xu Lan said apologetically.

“No! Mister Xu, that’s not what I meant. It’s my pleasure to have someone like Bai Wu as my student. He’s keen and curious. I wanted to tell you that he learned all three years of elementary school curriculum in just a single day. On top of that, he could apply the knowledge flexibly.

“Even though he’s eighteen now, it’s still quite an amazing feat considering how he had never touched a book in his life. I think you might be overlooking some of his talents.

“If Bai Wu keep this up for the next few days, I hope that Mister Xu could cooperate with us. We’re planning to participate in a national brainstorming event. We would love to have Bai Wu to participate in the name of our institution. What do you think, Mister Xu?”

The teacher was worked up. Bai Wu observed from afar.

“Uh, if he’s indeed as great as you’ve claimed, I would be overjoyed. However, I didn’t want you to get your hopes up and be disappointed later,” Xu Lan extracted his hands from the teacher’s grip and said embarrassingly.

“Hmm, yes, this might happen too. Let’s just observe for now and go with the flow. Let me elaborate on what happened today. From first grade to third grade, Bai Wu mastered everything in the curriculum in just a single day. Oh lord!” exclaimed the teacher.

“Haha, sure. If that’s the case, you have my full support. I’m happy that Bai Wu can make it to such a platform,” Xu Lan said in a serious tone.

“Let’s hope that he can keep this up tomorrow. Haha, we totally lost track of time while chatting. It’s late, you both should start heading back now,” said the teacher.

“Uh huh, see you tomorrow.” Xu Lan waved and Bai Wu immediately sprinted over to hold his hands.

“Let’s go, we should get going.” Xu Lan was running his fingers through Bai Wu’s hair – he was both happy and worried at the same time.

Xiao Feng thought things through – he chose a convenient location that was near to the police station for Xu Lan’s sake. Xu Lan was glad that he no longer had to see baldie Chen anymore. After making the necessary arrangements with Meng Chengjun, he hummed a tune and made his way to the Whitehorse Hotel.

“You’re here?” Xiao Feng was eating. He welcomed Xu Lan in and said, “The files are on the table. Take a look and see if you can find anything. My team didn’t spot anything even after spending a whole night reading through them. I sometimes wondered if they’re blind.”

Xiao Feng pointed at the table across the room as he spoke..

“Alright, I’ll take a look at the files now. Enjoy your meal,” Xu Lan nodded as he said. He had to wake up early because he had to send Bai Wu to school.

Xu Lan started off with personal files. Everyone had gone through it many times. It was as Xiao Feng said, there was nothing remarkable.

Hence, Xu Lan arranged the files in reverse chronological order.

“Hey, what are you doing? The entire room is occupied. Aren’t you worried that they’ll get mixed up?” A man around Xiao Feng’s age walked out. He asked in a deep tone after seeing the files all over the house.

“I’ve left marks in the files and they’ll be rearranged into their original position shortly,” replied Xu Lan.

“Does this even work? I heard you’re the person who would dig out a case tracing as far back as ten over years ago?” The man voiced his question with a booming voice.
