I Play Dungeons in the Police Station-Chapter 413 - 251: Longhai 11·25 Dismemberment Case
Pondering over this, Yang Ming almost burst into tears.
If Li Xiang isn’t over there, then transferring myself over is just a stupid move.
People would surely ask, "Dude, what were you thinking? Others are doing everything to transfer to the provincial capital, but here you are, moving from the provincial capital to this backwater place."
How would he respond?
Any answer would just be a laughable joke.
"I can’t handle it anymore, my transfer went through. Captain Li, what should I do?"
Seeing Yang Ming on the verge of tears, Li Xiang decided not to tease him any longer and said, "It’s not impossible; I’ll just transfer you back."
"Really?"
Hearing that Li Xiang was willing to transfer him back, Yang Ming was moved to the point of tears.
"Do you have any other hope?"
Yang Ming shook his head; he could only count on Li Xiang now.
"Then that’s settled. Go fetch me a pot of boiling water."
"Sure, I’ll go right away."
After sending Yang Ming away, several other task force members came in one after another to say their reluctant goodbyes to Li Xiang as they prepared to return to their original units.
Wan Shu’an also came in and said a few words: "Captain Li, even though you’re young, you’re very capable. I’ve been a policeman for half my life, and not many people earn my admiration; you’re one of them. Among the younger generation, you truly stand out to me."
At his original unit, he was also a sub-section-level cadre, with young people under him about the same age as Li Xiang.
Having seen Li Xiang, looking at those so-called elites was indeed an eyesore.
"You’re too kind. It’s been a good fate working together; we should communicate more in the future."
"Sure, let’s get together more often in the future. Hanging out with young people makes me feel younger too."
After a few pleasantries with Wan Shu’an, they concluded their conversation.
All good things must come to an end. Before long, the once bustling office became empty and deserted.
Only Li Xiang and Yang Ming remained.
That’s right, Yang Ming hadn’t left yet.
He had to stay by Li Xiang’s side just in case he left, and Li Xiang forgot about him. If that happened, he’d have to head to Jinghai shortly after going back.
"Alright, get ready to clock out. In a while, lock all the doors and windows and check again. Come back to report tomorrow, okay?"
"Come back tomorrow? I don’t need to go back?"
Hearing that Li Xiang wanted him back the next day, Yang Ming was overjoyed. He thought he’d have to wait for a notice, and whether it’d be to Jinghai City or staying with Li Xiang was left to fate.
But unexpectedly, Li Xiang’s efficiency was way higher, fulfilling his promise from noon by evening.
His word was more effective than their Bureau Chief Wang’s.
The person he wanted to follow was indeed the right choice.
"If you want to go back, I have no objection."
"No, no, I’ll be back. What time tomorrow?"
"No need to come too early; be here by eight. Remember to bring your luggage; you’re coming with me on a business trip."
The two agreed on the time, then each went home.
When he got home and saw Lin Feifei was there, he walked over and hugged her: "Wife, I’ve got good news—I’ve been promoted to assistant section chief. Be more courteous to me now."
"Oh? Have I not been courteous to you before? Hmph, so what if you’re an assistant section chief? You’re my husband, and if I want to not be courteous, I won’t be."
"Oh? In what way are you not being courteous, let me see. Let’s try my tickle technique."
"Ah~ no, it tickles~ hahaha~ it tickles~ I’m wrong~ I’ll never dare again~ hahaha~"
After teasing for a little while, Lin Feifei surrendered with a kiss.
This little home was getting warmer and cozier.
Lin Feifei’s studio had gradually gotten back on track after some operation time, and previously lost brand endorsements were slowly reaching back. Commercial performances and notices were also gradually returning; everything was moving in a positive direction.
Together they walked, progressing together in their respective fields.
Before sleeping, Li Xiang took out his phone to check the system as usual, only to find he couldn’t access it.
This made him break into a cold sweat.
All of his current achievements were thanks to the system’s support. Without it, he felt empty inside.
[System updating...]
Just then, the screen suddenly displayed a small line: "System updating?"
Since getting the system, it hadn’t ever updated before. Why the sudden update?
After some pondering and not finding any reason, Li Xiang didn’t dwell on it and instead slept hugging Lin Feifei.
The next day, when Li Xiang arrived at the office, Yang Ming was already there early, with a suitcase by his side.
"Morning, Captain Li. Where are we headed today?"
"To Longhai. I’ll go find a car; we’ll drive there."
Li Xiang asked Director Fan for a police car, filled it up with gas, and then tossed the keys to Yang Ming.
Now that he had an assistant, he didn’t have to bother with small tasks like driving.
-----------------
Longhai City, endowed with a unique geographical location.
Mountains and rivers connect, customs are similar, roads link, and trade and travel are mutually convenient, maintaining and continuing close interpersonal, economic, cultural, and social interactions since ancient times.
In recent years, economic development has been rapid.
At the Longhai City Public Security Bureau, in the 11·25 task force office, a case analysis meeting was underway, chaired by Task Force Leader Qiu Cang.
"Team One, did you find anything on your research?"
"Captain Qiu, we haven’t found any results yet. We’ve visited the local people three times, and still haven’t found anything suspicious. It looks like the bag of body parts floated here from elsewhere."
