Major Crimes Unit Starts with Police Academy Students

"Boss, has he paid his bill yet?"

The boss gave an awkward smile.

"No, the bill is here."

Wu Mingcheng picked it up, looked at it, scanned the code to pay, and returned to his car.

It was so late, and they didn't know where Chen Xincheng lived, so they had no choice but to take him back to their place.

After returning to his residence, Li Dawei took the initiative to speak.

"Mingcheng, why don't we leave Master with us? It's fine for the three of us men, but Xia Jie is with you, so it's not very convenient."

Wu Mingcheng didn't refuse much, and nodded. 913

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Li Dawei said with a smile.

"This is my master, there's no trouble at all,"

Wu Mingcheng stepped forward and knocked on the door. Hearing someone knock, Zhao Jiwei went to open the door.

Li Dawei came in, practically supporting and carrying Chen Xincheng, which startled him so much he almost screamed.

"Mingcheng, what's going on?"

Hearing the commotion, Yang Shu also came out of his room and was startled by what he saw.

"what's wrong?"

Neither Wu Mingcheng nor Chen Xincheng spoke; instead, they helped each other carry Chen Xincheng to Li Dawei's room.

Li Dawei put him on his bed, brought a basin of water, and used a towel to wipe his face.

Chen Xincheng shivered and mumbled incoherently.

"Water... water..."

Wu Mingcheng immediately stood up, poured a glass of water, and handed it to him.

"Uncle Chen, the water's here,"

Chen Xincheng tried hard to get up, but after several attempts, he couldn't.

Wu Mingcheng showed no disgust, picked him up, held him close to his chest, and fed him water.

Chen Xincheng drank a glass of water, then lay down and went back to sleep.

Chapter 493 Blue Moonlight Bar

After wiping his face, Li Dawei took off his shoes, put his feet up on the bed, and covered himself with his blanket.

At such close range, he saw the gray hairs at Chen Xincheng's temples that he usually hid under his police hat.

At this moment, Li Dawei felt inexplicably sad, reflecting on the hardships Chen Xincheng had endured over the years.

Li Dawei and Wu Mingcheng exchanged a glance, silently got up, and walked out.

Yang Shu and Zhao Jiwei were sitting in the living room, whispering to each other.

After Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei came out, they sat on the sofa with heavy hearts.

Zhao Jiwei inquired,

"Is Officer Chen alright?"

Li Dawei said casually

"It's nothing, I just drank too much,"

Zhao Jiwei said confidently,

"Officer Chen must have run into some trouble, otherwise he wouldn't be drinking, just like we were a few days ago,"

Yang Shu spoke up,

"Mingcheng, Dawei, is there anything we can do to help?"

Wu Mingcheng said,

"Not to mention you two, even the two of us don't know what happened,"

Li Dawei sighed at this moment.

"Sigh, it seems my mentor has a lot of worries at home as well, not just at work. It's really not easy for him."

At this point, everyone fell silent.

At that moment, a buzzing sound suddenly came from inside the room, like the sound of a cell phone vibrating.

Wu Mingcheng and the others quickly stood up and ran inside to check on Chen Xincheng. Chen Xincheng was still unconscious, and the phone vibration was coming from his body.

He took out Chen Xincheng's phone and saw many missed calls on the screen, all from Jiajia's mother.

He hesitated for a moment, but then answered the call.

All I could hear was Shangzhen whispering on the other end of the phone.

"Chen Xincheng, what's wrong with you? Jiajia hasn't come home yet..."

Wu Mingcheng noticed Shang Zhen's voice; it seemed she was still making the call from home. Her reluctance suggested there was something going on.

He responded,

"Auntie, it's me. We just met."

Shangzhen was taken aback and subconsciously asked,

Where is Chen Xincheng?

Wu Mingcheng glanced at Chen Xincheng, who was still unconscious.

"Auntie, he's having some issues right now and can't answer the phone,"

Shangzhen immediately became angry.

"Just ask him, 'Your daughter is dying, are you going to do anything about it?' Let Chen Xincheng answer the phone."

Chen Xincheng was clearly in no condition to answer her call, so Wu Mingcheng thought for a moment and then said...

"Auntie, how could Uncle Chen possibly abandon his daughter? But Uncle Chen is really not able to do so right now."

"Tell me directly if there's anything you need. Given my relationship with Uncle Chen, I'll go find Jiajia."

Shangzhen was conflicted, perhaps because she was worried about Jiajia. In the end, she told Wu Mingcheng what had happened.

Yang Shu and Zhao Jiwei stood at the doorway, keeping a close eye on what was happening inside.

After listening to Shangzhen's account, although her description was evasive and incomplete, Wu Mingcheng still vaguely understood something.

After Wu Mingcheng came out, he said to the group of them,

"Dawei, come with me for a bit. Please ask Jiwei and Yangshu to look after Uncle Chen for a while. We'll be right back."

Yang Shu, Zhao Jiwei nodded,

"Mingcheng, don't worry, we've got this in our hands."

Zhao Jiwei then asked in confusion,

"Mingcheng, where are you going?"

Li Dawei looked at Wu Mingcheng with a puzzled expression. Hadn't they already found their master? Why did they still need to go out?

Wu Mingcheng said expressionlessly,

"It's nothing, I'm just going out for a bit, don't ask so many questions,"

Immediately, Li Dawei realized there must be some hidden reason, and followed Wu Mingcheng outside.

After the two got into the car, Wu Mingcheng didn't forget to send a message to Wang Shouyi via WeChat.

After Wang Shouyi got home from get off work, he was still worried about Chen Xincheng's situation.

Only after receiving Wu Mingcheng's message did he finally feel completely at ease.

After Wu Mingcheng hung up the phone, Li Dawei turned around and asked curiously,

"Mingcheng, where should we go now?"

Wu Mingcheng sighed.

"Go to the Blue Moonlight Bar on County Government Street and find Jiajia. Jiajia works there."

Upon hearing this, Li Dawei exclaimed in surprise.

"Huh? Working at a bar? You're not a hostess, are you?"

Wu Mingcheng nodded silently. Then, Li Dawei sighed. No wonder his master was drinking alone; his daughter was such a worry.

Night had fallen, but the Blue Moonlight Bar was bustling with activity; the music was deafening, and the lights were dim.

In every shadowy corner, men and women could be seen embracing and hugging.

After Wu Mingcheng and Li Dawei came in, they were holding their phones, looking at Jiajia's photos on the screen, searching everywhere.

Suddenly, Wu Mingcheng saw Jiajia sitting alone in the corner, looking dejected. He immediately went over to her.
