Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

"Ji'an!"

Bai Ji'an turned around, and He Wei was looking at him with a gloomy expression.

He smiled softly, stretched out his hand to open the car door, and got in.

"Howie."

"I didn't stop him from talking to you, and I didn't want to blame you for not pushing him away immediately. You don't have to explain in a hurry."

"But you have unhappiness written on your face."

"Nonsense, would you be happy if someone suddenly came up to hug me?"

That's really not fun.

He Wei glanced sideways at Bai Ji'an, seeing that he was lost in thought again, and couldn't help but ask, "What did he tell you?"

"He said thank you, thank you that I still think about him."

"I was thinking about him, when did you say..." He Wei paused and said in surprise: "Didn't he come yet at that time? He knocked on the door and came in after that. So, he heard what we said before?"

"Well, it should be."

"Then if Nie Kaiyu is nosy and gets involved, won't he be ruined when he returns home?"

"It's nothing. He won't be safe. He will be beaten coldly."

He Wei snorted: "What kind of punishment is he being beaten coldly? Doesn't he like to lie down at home the most?"

"That's why I like it."

"What do you mean?"

Bai Ji'an raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a complicated smile: "It's okay."

Since there was nothing wrong, he didn't want to spend their precious time on other people's affairs.

"Then ignore them and focus on our own affairs."

"what's up?"

"Let's pay the debt."

Bai Ji'an was stunned. He blinked, thinking that the debt He Wei was talking about was the debt he fell asleep in the middle of last night.

When he woke up in the morning, he indeed said that he wanted to get back his capital and profits.

He is really young and strong, and he has great physical strength. If he didn't succeed in the morning, he could continue in the afternoon.

In comparison, it feels like he is almost aging early.

"What are you thinking about? Don't say anything."

"praise you."

"When?"

"Just now."

"Why didn't I hear it?"

"Heart."

"Why don't you tell me directly?" He Wei looked at him suspiciously, "Why do I feel that things are not simple?"

“It’s nothing simple, I just feel a little bit embarrassed to talk about it.”

Bai Ji'an stared blankly at the menu placed between them. Opposite him, He Wei asked, "What's so unspeakable about eating dumplings?"

"So this is what you were talking about."

"Well, what else?" He Wei handed over a pencil: "Have you forgotten what I told you when I set off the firecrackers on New Year's Eve? Now we are just short of dumplings and they must be completed."

He already felt a great loss for not celebrating his birthday with Bai Ji'an alone.

Eating dumplings together during the Chinese New Year can no longer be a loss.

"But." Bai Ji'an held the pen and was unable to start: "We just finished eating, do you still have stomach?"

"There's one more thing, but it doesn't matter. It's just a formality. We can order a plate."

"Can we pack it up then?"

He wanted to go home with Howie to eat.

Back at the office, seeing He Wei happily running to the kitchen to find dishes and chopsticks, Bai Ji'an followed him, lying next to the door and silently reminding him: "Remember to heat up the leftover dishes from last night and eat them together. "

He Wei turned around in confusion and asked, "Don't you never eat reheated leftovers?"

“I eat what’s cooked at home.”

He Wei shrugged and said regretfully: "Then you are late. I had already distributed the remaining dishes to the stray cats and dogs in the alley at midnight last night. Not to mention how delicious they were."

The shrimp-filled dumplings were on the table. As soon as He Wei picked one up and fed it to Bai Ji'an's mouth, the phone at hand rang.

Looking at Yan Haizhen displayed on the screen, He Wei's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled.

Pressing the speakerphone on, the voice on the other side of the phone was quite noisy.

In addition to the almost continuous sound of firecrackers, there are also dogs barking and roosters crowing.

In short, except for people's voices, all other sounds can be heard clearly. The scene is as spectacular and lively as you can imagine.

"Hewei! Hewei! Hey! Hewei! Can you hear me? Talk!"

Yan Haizhen's roar almost made He Bai's ears hurt.

Howie pressed the speaker as if to save his life and shouted into the microphone: "Can you move to another place!"

Yan Haizhen, who finally heard the sound, heard it several times. After a long while, until the noise in the receiver became smaller and smaller, He Wei dared to turn on the speaker again.

"Can you hear it now?"

He Wei said "hmm", and while continuing to feed the dumplings into Bai Ji'an's mouth, he said quietly: "You are not here to wish me New Year's greetings, are you?"

"Do you think it's possible? I'm on the same level as you, why do I need to pay you New Year's greetings in the first year of junior high school?"

"Then why are you calling here? Is it a traditional custom in your hometown to scold someone on the first day of the new year?"

Yan Haizhen snorted coldly and said, "Just show your dignity now. Wait a while, and I promise you to put out the fire with just one sentence."

Hearing this, He Wei and Bai Ji'an looked at each other and said seriously: "What happened?"

"Okay, I'm confused since I'm on vacation, and I still have the sensitivity that a police officer should have."

"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point quickly."

"The point is, there is a case, and the Forestry Bureau asked us to return to the team as quickly as possible. I'm at my wife's hometown, and I won't be able to get there until tomorrow night if I leave now."

"The forestry bureau called us?"

"That's right."

"Then the case needs to be handled jointly by the first team and the third team. What kind of case is so big?"

"Well..." Yan Haizhen changed the subject and asked, "Did you eat just now?"

He seemed to vaguely hear the sound of Howie chewing.

"what?"

"Just say it or not."

"Ah."

"The dismemberment case."

It's really an obvious revenge intention.

"Anyway, the Forestry Bureau said we should rush back as quickly as possible. If you are close, you should go back first. I will be there tomorrow."

After saying that, Yan Haizhen hung up the phone.

He Wei quickly stood up, held Bai Ji'an's face and kissed it. After saying "Wait until I come back", he immediately got dressed and set off.

Seeing him pulling on his coat and rushing downstairs, Bai Ji'an couldn't help but feel an empty emotion that had nowhere to put it.

The rare holiday was over in the blink of an eye, and his busy man had to work overtime again.

Bai Ji'an leaned back in his chair and looked at the steaming dumplings placed in the middle of the dining table, which suddenly became boring.

He picked up his phone and idly scrolled through time-consuming short videos of the same city.

Some of them were swept away by him before he even had a chance to read the content.

After scrolling rapidly for an unknown amount of time, Bai Ji'an suddenly pressed the screen.

Looking at the missing person notice played in the video, I looked at the completely unfamiliar face on the screen.

He raised his eyes and looked at the time. He had only been scrolling for fifteen minutes since he turned on his phone.

However, in this seemingly short period of fifteen minutes, this was already the third missing person notice he had received.

These three lost people are all different in appearance, age, and time of disappearance. The only thing they have in common is that they all attend the same school, Yue'an City Lingying International High School.
