According to Lulu's account, she has loved roller skating since she was a child and considers it her top choice for exercise and relaxation, continuing into adulthood.

On that day, Lulu, who would soon become a bride, discovered that Wang Hongzhan was having an affair with another woman.

Furious and with nowhere to vent her anger, she chose to go high-speed roller skating on a secluded road she often visited.

Unexpectedly, she was chased and targeted for collision by a motorcyclist.

In a panic, Lulu fell and lost consciousness.

When she woke up again, it was nearly three years later.

After waking up, Lulu remembered the incident but did not know who wanted to harm her as the motorcyclist was wearing a leather outfit and helmet.

After sorting through the incident, Kong Mingqing found no evidence that could be used as a breakthrough.

After discussing with Lulu, Kong Mingqing decided to start with Lulu and release some ambiguous messages to stir up the situation.

Unexpectedly, within two or three days, a major accident happened.

This excited Kong Mingqing greatly.

He was just worried that the behind-the-scenes person would not take action, leaving him with no traces to follow...

Kong Mingqing arrived at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, and it was already past seven in the evening.

Lin Jie, Qin Gang, and Qin Fang had already started and were halfway through their meal.

Sitting down, Kong Mingqing immediately drank two bowls of soup to dispel the cold and hunger before raising a glass of white wine to Qin Fang, "Lin Jie doesn't drink, Assistant Qin can't drink, you must be yearning for it, right."

"Come, I'll drink a glass with you first."

Qin Fang chuckled, "It's the end of the year, I've had more than enough wine to drink, I'm almost getting sick of it, and afraid of it."

"Just eating, drinking tea, and chatting like this is really nice, I genuinely like it."

He then advised, "Mingqing, you know you're still investigating a case, who knows when you'll get a call asking for you, you should drink tea too."

Today's occasion was said to be a banquet for Qin Fang, but Kong Mingqing understood that the real protagonist was Lin Jie.

Since Lin Jie couldn't drink, even if Kong Mingqing wanted to drink, he had to endure it.

Following Qin Fang's lead, he switched to a cup of tea and toasted with him.

Putting down the teacup, Kong Mingqing asked with concern, "About the change of traffic lights incident at the transportation dispatch center, I heard at first, the leader scolded you severely and even said there would be disciplinary actions."

"Is everything okay now, is there still that disciplinary action?"

Hearing this, Lin Jie also asked with concern, "Captain Qin, you told me at first that the incident didn't negatively affect you, so why are criticisms and disciplinary actions coming up now?"

"Captain Qin, it's not good to keep things from me."

Qin Fang chuckled softly and said, "Expert Lin, I didn't deceive you, in fact, what I just said is all true."

He further explained, "The leader's scolding and talks of disciplinary actions were just out of anger due to ignorance of the real situation at the start."

"When the real situation at the Affiliated Hospital came to our attention,"

"The leader found out that the heroic military doctor who suffered an attack desperately needed your treatment, Expert Lin. Not only did the leader apologize to me, but he also praised me for handling things well on the spot."

Lin Jie responded with an "oh," saying, "In the end, Captain Qin, you did suffer some grievances, I'm really sorry."

"At that time, I was also worried about the safety of students, I had no choice but to ask Captain Qin for help, seeking some convenience."

Qin Fang said seriously, "Expert Lin, I can't accept such words from you."

"At that time you were going to save a life, your request was legitimate, and creating that convenience was part of our duty and work."

"Urgent situations like transporting critically ill patients or firefighting often require temporary traffic flow adjustments, we encounter them two or three times every month at the traffic command dispatch center."

With Kong Mingqing, who was familiar with both sides, making humorous remarks, the atmosphere at the table became much more lively.

Lin Jie naturally asked about the penalties for the father and son who harmed He Yimin.

Kong Mingqing considered his words and said, "Intentional injury causing serious harm, especially in a public place like a hospital, with such a vicious impact, from the perspective of sentencing, they will definitely be punished heavily and severely."

"However, the two stabbing wounds that caused the military doctor serious harm were done by that underage boy. According to law, it should be treated with leniency or reduced punishment."

"In sum, the father and son should be sentenced to around three to five years."

Hearing this answer, Lin Jie's anger flared up, "If I hadn't arrived in time, my student's life would have been lost. They should be sentenced for murder."

Agreeing with Lin Jie, Kong Mingqing said, "Indeed, that should be the case. But the court defines murder based on the outcome of the criminal act."

"Under your incredible medical skills, the doctor survived, so it's not considered murder."

He suggested, "You can demand more in terms of civil compensation!"

Seeing Lin Jie in a bad mood, Kong Mingqing hurriedly changed the subject, starting conversations on some social hot topics and interesting stories.

Under his intentional guidance, Lin Jie's mood quickly improved.

Despite the familiar interactions deepening, Lin Jie could still sense some reserve and catering in Qin Fang's manner toward him.

Even from Kong Mingqing, Lin Jie sensed a bit of ingratiation.

This led Lin Jie to sigh silently, Have I really become such an important person?

The dinner continued until 8:30. Seeing the topic winding down and the conversation nearing its end, Lin Jie suggested wrapping it up.

At this moment, Kong Mingqing took out his phone, saying, "Lin Jie, let's take a few pictures of the dinner."

He explained, "You don't know, but my wife might be entering menopause early. She's suspicious all day and manages me incredibly strictly. I need evidence whenever I'm out socializing and dining."

Kong Mingqing also turned to Qin Fang, "You take a few photos too, in case my wife calls you for confirmation, you'll have evidence to prove my innocence..."

Outside the hotel, watching the Phaeton car disappear beyond his view, Kong Mingqing turned to Qin Fang, "Don't forget to post one of the photos we took just now on your social media, just one will suffice."

Qin Fang was momentarily stunned but then understood and laughed, "Mingqing, have you suddenly become insightful, or did Expert Lin open a window for you, performing some brain surgery that made you smarter?"

"You're getting very good at these little tricks."

He then asked seriously, "This year, Mingqing, you've soared, you used to be one rank below me, and now you're one rank above. Is it because of Expert Lin's influence?"

Kong Mingqing paused thoughtfully before honestly saying, "Yes, that is part of it. The police department knows about my relationship with Lin Jie."

"Of course, the prerequisite for my promotion is also the achievements I've made."

As he spoke, he suddenly laughed and said, "To be honest, Qin Fang, a good portion of the cases that put me in the spotlight are connected to Lin Jie. So, if you calculate it like that, over half of my promotion credit indeed goes to him."

At this moment, he cautioned, "Qin Fang, just letting the leader know you have this connection with Lin Jie is sufficient."

"Don't brag unnecessarily.

"I know that Lin Jie now sees very few patients, all of whom are carefully selected and mostly suffer from serious illnesses. Many people wish to seek his treatment, but either get refused or can't even reach him."

"The best steel should be used where it's needed most, don't casually agree to people's requests."

Qin Fang nodded, "I naturally understand that, unless it's a critical moment, I wouldn't ask for Expert Lin's help..."

Lin Jie had just returned home not long ago when he received a call from Huo Guangheng.

"Teacher, Lulu's fiancé, Wang Hongzhan, had a major accident this afternoon at Binhai TV Station. Not only has half of his ear been cut off, but his left shoulder's collarbone and scapula also have comminuted fractures."

"The most severe injury is the glenoid of the left shoulder joint, which shattered into several pieces."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jie couldn't help asking, "An accident that happened in the afternoon shouldn't have been left until now without treatment, should it? What's the point of calling me?"

Huo Guangheng cautiously explained, "It's like this, Teacher. After the injury, the unconscious Wang Hongzhan was taken by ambulance to a top-tier hospital not far from the TV Station for treatment."

"When Wang Hongzhan woke up, he found he had already undergone surgery and was lying in a hospital bed."

"The doctor told him that because of the comminuted fracture, the prognosis isn't ideal. Especially his shoulder joint might not recover to its original state, and his left arm's mobility might face some issues."

"He's now transferred to the Affiliated Hospital, hoping you can take a look."

Lin Jie straightforwardly refused, "No time, won't see!"

He didn't want to get too entangled with Lulu and her people, and based on Huo Guangheng's description, Wang Hongzhan's injuries weren't too severe, so he wasn't interested in intervening.

Another important reason is that Lin Jie had a poor impression of Wang Hongzhan.

Hearing Lin Jie's response, Huo Guangheng dared not say more and replied, "Teacher, I understand. I'll convey this to Wang Hongzhan."
