In the gaze filled with gossip fire from Shen Xing'er.

Wu Di said with a sigh in his tone, slowly recounting the story between Qin Huan and Xu Yizhong from seven years ago that he knew.

Even Zhang Feng was surprised by one point, this Qin Huan and Xu Yizhong were actually in an online relationship!

Well, judging from Qin Huan's appearance and her previous way of handling things and work attitude, it really didn't seem like she was someone who could have an online romance!

During the online relationship, Qin Huan was, of course, in the country.

And that Xu Yizhong was studying abroad.

According to Wu Di, Qin Huan contributed significantly online to Xu Yizhong's decision to return and serve his homeland!

The two people in the online relationship had never met each other, not even seen photos, let alone videos.

But they often talked on the phone.

They agreed that once Xu Yizhong returned to the country and settled his job and everything else,

he would immediately meet Qin Huan.

This seemed to explain the image of Xu Yizhong that Zhang Feng saw through Xu Yizhong's ashes, the anticipation, and hope on his face, what exactly they meant.

But....

An accident happened.

When Qin Huan received the tragic news of Xu Yizhong's death, she was heartbroken!

Even though they hadn't met, and there wasn't any particularly deep affection.

But Qin Huan knew that she was the one who persuaded Xu Yizhong to return, if she hadn't talked him into it, he wouldn't have died.

However, Qin Huan did not regret it.

If heaven gave her another chance, she would still choose to have Xu Yizhong return to the country.

Because this is the meaning of studying abroad for every overseas student!

The most hateful thing was, Xu Yizhong's death was actually classified as a suicide!

She knew, Xu Yizhong hadn't even met her yet, how could he possibly commit suicide?!

It was because of this matter.

A flame of revenge appeared in Qin Huan's heart.

Not only to avenge Xu Yizhong but also to root out these internal tumors completely!

So she became a police officer, then worked hard tirelessly, striving to get transferred to Rain City, and became the head of the criminal investigation division of Rain City's branch!

She was so dedicated all these years, cracking down on crimes, whether big cases or small, all handled personally.

Just to find any possible clue related to that case from seven years ago.

If not for her limited authority, she might have directly applied to re-investigate that case.

It wasn't that her affection for Xu Yizhong was so deep.

It was just that she couldn't let go of this resentment in her heart.

But now, the arrival of Zhang Feng unexpectedly solved this issue quietly.

In an instant, Qin Huan felt a sudden enlightenment.

One could even see an unprecedented change from her expression.

But as for what path Qin Huan will take in the future...

Nobody knows yet.

Of course, Zhang Feng does not care anymore.

After all, Qin Huan has nothing to do with him.

He didn't come here to resolve Qin Huan's inner conflicts either.

He just came to solve the case.

Having solved the case and acquired the Spiritual Qi.

Zhang Feng had already started looking for other cases.

Originally, he thought of leaving, but just as he stepped out.

A whole row of neat cars blocked his way.

The person who got off the first car was none other than Shen Hanshan.

Originally, Zhang Feng wanted to slip away quietly to avoid Shen Hanshan, this big mouth, from spreading his heroic deeds among the comrades in Rain City.

But he overlooked one thing.

Shen Xing'er!

Shen Xing'er is Shen Hanshan's daughter!

"Dad!"

A crisp call came.

Shen Hanshan's attention instantly shifted this way.

He naturally saw Zhang Feng.

Well, there's no leaving now.

Zhang Feng had already prepared to face the storm of attention.

However, what Zhang Feng didn't expect was.

This Shen Hanshan merely walked over to him and whispered in his ear:

"Wait for me a bit, once the work here is done, I have something to tell you."

And then he dived back into work.

He didn't publicize himself?

This actually left him with a subtle sense of emptiness?

It's not that Zhang Feng truly had any vanity.

He was certainly happy with this.

But Shen Hanshan's attitude left Zhang Feng with a speck of doubt.

Because of this, Zhang Feng decided to stay.

Quietly waiting in an unassuming little room that Qin Huan arranged for him.

Sure enough, it wasn't long before Shen Hanshan pushed the door open and came in.

He even went out of his way to invite Shen Xing'er, as well as that cold sister beside Zhang Feng that he had never heard of or met, out of the room.

Only Shen Hanshan and Zhang Feng were left in the room.

Sitting across from Zhang Feng, Shen Hanshan opened with a sentence:

"Xiao Zhang, you are truly amazing!"

Despite hearing this kind of words countless times over the phone from Shen Hanshan.

He couldn't help but praise it again when seeing Zhang Feng in person:

"Seven years! Seven years!"

"We don't know how many experienced old criminal investigators had been ruled out without finding any traces."

"I never thought you could solve it in just one day!!!"

"It's destiny! Destiny sent me to Jiangnan to discover your talent!"

Listening to Shen Hanshan's voice of praise, Zhang Feng's heart felt no joy, instead, he showed a face of disdain:

"Alright... you better say less!"

"Why didn't you say those words earlier in front of so many? Why not push me into the limelight?"

Listening to Zhang Feng's complaints, a hint of amusement appeared on Shen Hanshan's face as he said:

"Didn't you tell me you wanted to keep a low profile? What's this, I helped you keep a low profile, and you have objections?"

"Tch!" Zhang Feng said in irritation, waving his hand:

"Because it's not like you at all!"

"Alright, is there something else that happened, come on, tell me."

"Hahaha..." listening to Zhang Feng's voice, Shen Hanshan laughed heartily:

"It's just what I understand you."

Then, he leaned forward, getting a bit closer to Zhang Feng, a trace of seriousness appeared in his gaze, and his voice rang out low:

"Actually, nothing happened; I just feel that now is the time for you to hide, to achieve the element of surprise."

"Oh?" Zhang Feng's eyebrow lifted gently:

"What do you mean?"

Shen Hanshan's words indeed puzzled Zhang Feng a bit.

Hide?

Why hide?

What were you doing before?

Shen Hanshan didn't let Zhang Feng wait long.

Quickly said:

"That Lv Dong confessed, mentioned there's some kind of Gu Technique or something else stored in that box, I can't remember clearly, specific items are already being investigated by appointed personnel...."

Listening to Shen Hanshan's words, Zhang Feng's gaze seemed a bit peculiar.

Well, go on, investigate.

Not knowing until you check, once you check, you still won't know.

Because the items in that box were standing coldly at the door.

Zhang Feng chose to keep it hidden, as it's actually harmless, since it doesn't affect the case's progression at all.

That's not all, Shen Hanshan continued to say:

"But the owner of the box, Lv Dong confessed, is a man with a cross tattoo on his hand."

"And this cross tattoo has been found in several cases you participated in D City, and these cases are rather bizarre, not complicated."

"So we feel, this person is really fishy..."

Hearing these words, Zhang Feng's expression turned peculiar and he looked at Shen Hanshan saying:

"What does that have to do with me hiding or not hiding?"

Shen Hanshan's voice didn't hold any pause and directly came with a sentence:

"Because you're also quite fishy!"

Cough, cough….. Zhang Feng almost choked a breath.
