Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

"Good morning, Miss Susan. I'm Jane Eyre from the Criminal Investigation Team at the next precinct.

I'm investigating a case recently, and I need your help and cooperation by providing some clues.

Do you have a minute now?" Ms. Jane, wearing a sheriff's uniform, a blonde wig, and black-framed glasses that covered half of her face, blocked Susan's way out of the police station to buy coffee.

"...Hello, Ms. Jane. Of course I can cooperate with my colleagues.

But could you please show me your ID?" Although Susan was surprised by Ms. Jane's appearance, she quickly regained her composure.

"Of course." Ms. Jane smiled and provided the 'fake certificate' produced by the Public Security Bureau.

Susan took it in her hand and looked at it several times, then took out her phone and connected it to the internal database to search by serial number. But the ID of this "Jane Eyre" lady was undoubtedly authentic.

"I'm sorry, I was too suspicious. Ms. Jane, how do you need my cooperation?" Susan touched the unquestionable police ID in her hand. Even though she still had doubts in her heart, she could only smile apologetically and return it to Ms. Jane.

"It's okay, Miss Sheriff Susan has very good vigilance.

If you still have questions about my identity, you can also call my local police station." Ms. Jian took the ID and put it away, and offered thoughtfully.

"No need, the ID is real. But could you please wait for me for a moment?

I have to take my colleagues' coffee back first and then give them some instructions on the work at hand." Susan smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Of course there's no problem. It was my sudden visit that disturbed Miss Susan's work.

I'll wait for Miss Susan in the cafe." Ms. Jane smiled politely and looked at the sheriff in front of her. She seemed to believe her words, but her eyes were still vigilant. She thought to herself, "There are still many talented people in this police station.

I didn't expect a simple magistrate from the household registration department to be so vigilant. Fortunately, these documents were fake, as real as they could be.

Otherwise, it will really be exposed."

Susan walked back to the bureau with a cup of coffee. With a serious expression on her face, she took out her cell phone and called the friend in the bureau that Ms. Jane mentioned, asking them if there really was such a Ms. Jane Eyre in the bureau.

As the "King of Self-Apology" who often gets into trouble and submits letters of apology to different departments and branches all year round, he is a well-known social expert in the Public Security Bureau.

Although Susan didn't dare to say that she could recognize all the people in the police station, she definitely knew most of the official police officers.

Ms. Jane did not reveal any flaws, but Susan's intuition made her subconsciously reject this "colleague" who suddenly appeared.

Ms. Jane was sitting on a terrace seat on the rooftop of the cafe. The weather was cool and a little cold in autumn, so she was the only guest on the terrace, making it a perfect place for chatting.

Ms. Jane looked at the vast river view and casually stirred her coffee with a spoon.

The bright sunshine generously spread over the sparkling river surface, and the slightly cool autumn breeze caressed Ms. Jane's face.

Such nice weather naturally made Ms. Jane recall the white-haired man with gentle eyes bathing in the sun.

This is also one of the purposes of Ms. Jane's trip.

Ever since the last arrest, Bai Zhi disappeared without a trace.

But the trouble he caused will not disappear just because of his absence.

Ms. Jane doesn't care about the disputes between the military and the senior security officials over jurisdiction.

However, Snowy Owl, who was caught up in this major political scandal involving rebels, military traitors, and the reselling of military supplies, was not as lucky as Ms. Jane, who was rescued by the Public Security Bureau, to escape easily.

In particular, the military's unclear attitude and ambiguous information provided, while tentatively asking the Public Security Bureau to cooperate in finding the Snowy Owl, made Ms. Jane smell something strange.

The feeling of seeming to care but not too much makes it hard not to feel curious.

So Ms. Jane, who had escaped successfully, began to investigate the information of the Snowy Owl.

But he is indeed a mysterious man who claims to be 'no such person' with the same name as her.

Ms. Jian searched through official information but couldn't find even a single hair on Bai Zhi's head. Tracing back to the earliest information related to this man, she could only find an anonymous bank card number that had been created only a few months ago.

Furthermore, the Eridu Public Security Bureau adheres to a principle of not delving too deeply into bounties, offering rewards only if the captured criminal is indeed the person in question. This facilitates the pursuit of fugitives by unsavory "experts" who assist the Public Security Bureau in tracking them down, thus indirectly stabilizing order in New Eridu.

In fact, it was completely unexpected that Ms. Jian came to Susan today. While she was investigating Bai Zhi's identity, the people behind the loss of profits because of Bai Zhi were also investigating him.

At this time, a Maoxi sheriff with an extraordinary family background and a promising future in the Sheriff's Bureau privately asked someone to help keep an eye out for an adult man with extraordinary skills, white hair and red eyes, who liked to wear windbreakers and might have recently become active in New Eridu.

At the same time, Susan, another low-level sheriff with wide connections and good information, also asked her friends and colleagues to help investigate such a man.

Ms. Jane, who keenly realized that there might be a hidden connection between the two, compared the difficulty of approaching each other and decisively chose Susan, an ordinary sheriff.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting." Susan, climbing up the stairs, saw Ms. Jane and apologized as she approached. "I had to go back to hand over my work and report to the captain, so I was delayed for a while."

"It's okay. I'm out on a business trip today and don't have any other work. So I have plenty of time and no rush at all." Ms. Jane rested her chin on her hand, playfully hinting at her desire to slack off. She used this kind of talk to close the distance between her and Susan.

Of course, Ms. Jane had investigated Susan before coming. She knew that she was a troublemaker who often tap-danced on the edge of the rules and regulations without actually committing any serious mistakes. She didn't like to follow the beaten path, but she was a rare and capable and responsible sheriff.

"Haha, TOEFL. I don't have any work to deal with right now." Susan thanked the waiter, warmed her hands with the hot mocha in her hands, and responded to Ms. Jane with a smile.

After a few polite words exchanged with each other, Susan calmed down and looked at the real Jane Eyre, whom her friend had mentioned, with a sharp gaze. She asked directly, "What kind of information do you want to find out by coming to me today?"

I thought carefully for a long time about the cases I had handled recently, but they were still just trivial matters between ordinary residents.

So I don’t know if I can help you.”

"Of course you can." Ms. Jane raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and the words uttered in her gentle and magnetic voice made Susan feel a chill in her heart.

"Excuse me, Miss Susan, is the man you recently asked your friends and colleagues to investigate related to you or anyone close to you?"

Small Theater

Susan: Even though you have all the necessary documents, I still think you are not a good person!

Jane Du: What makes you say that?

Susan: Just rely on woman's intuition!

Jane Doe: ...
