Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Despite Officer Yu and their skepticism, Zhou Qiang and the others had full confidence in Su Xuan. If there was one person in their department who could identify the suspect in this case, it was Su Xuan.

Seeing Officer Yu and his team following them, Zhou Qiang and the others barely gave them a second glance. They quickly averted their eyes, smirking inwardly.

Man! You have no idea of Su Xuan’s capabilities!

Of course, Officer Yu and his team were unaware of Zhou Qiang and their group’s thoughts at this moment. They followed Su Xuan out of the police station and managed to hitch a ride.

Initially, they thought Su Xuan and his team might refuse their company, but to their surprise, Su Xuan merely glanced at them casually, showing no concern about whether they were tagging along or not.

Officer Yu:…

Although we do have doubts about your ability to solve this case, your condescending attitude is quite awkward.

What’s the deal? Do you think you’re invincible just because you helped the city bureau?

With this in mind, Officer Yu’s gaze hardened. Even as he sat in the car, his eyes remained fixed on Su Xuan. He was determined to see what Su Xuan was truly capable of, how he managed to assist the city bureau in solving this case.

As for Su Xuan…

Su Xuan chose not to speak and instead issued a series of instructions to his team.

“This is the homicide scene.”

“When we arrived earlier, we didn’t conduct a thorough examination as the victim was still in critical condition.”

“Now that the victim has passed away, this is the primary crime scene.”

“Everyone, observe carefully, and do not disturb the scene.”

“Officer Yu, since you’re from the Major Crimes Division, you should be familiar with how to handle the primary crime scene, right?”

“So, I’ll leave the investigation tasks here to you.”

Su Xuan delivered this rapid-fire set of instructions, and even before Officer Yu could respond, Su Xuan had already led his team upstairs. They left Officer Yu and his team staring at the body outline on the ground, their expressions extremely unpleasant.

“…This, Officer Yu…”

The police officers who had come along with Officer Yu didn’t look too pleased. They cautiously inquired, “What do we do next?”

What could they do?

Of course, they had to handle the case!

“We handle the case!” Officer Yu looked at the staircase, which Su Xuan had already disappeared into, and sneered. “Since young Su has entrusted this task to us…”

“If we don’t find something substantial for him, he might think we’re just loafing around!”

Although he said this, Officer Yu knew that he was already at a disadvantage when he had brought his team here earlier. Who could have expected Su Xuan’s cunning move? He had divided the responsibilities between them before anyone could react… it infuriated Officer Yu!

On the other hand, while Officer Yu wore a grim expression, Zhou Qiang, who was following Su Xuan upstairs, was bewildered.

“But… Old Su, weren’t you planning not to give him the case? Why are you letting them investigate downstairs? If they get involved, it will be troublesome for us to take it back…”

As Zhou Qiang spoke, the other officers also nodded seriously, equally surprised by Su Xuan’s actions.

Hearing Zhou Qiang’s words, everyone turned their attention to Su Xuan.

Su Xuan sighed in resignation. “Don’t you guys realize… if we don’t hand over the case, they won’t be able to do anything.”

As soon as Su Xuan finished speaking, the surrounding officers shook their heads. They had spent many years in the police force and knew that once a case was transferred to the Major Crimes Division, it was no longer their prerogative to decide whether to hand it over or not.

But didn’t young Su passionately vow earlier that he would never hand over the case? So why now…

“Regardless of whether we hand it over or not, they’ll come and take it. Why not let us decide who the primary investigator is? Wouldn’t that be more convenient?” Su Xuan looked at his puzzled colleagues and smiled.

The group, initially puzzled, immediately widened their eyes upon hearing Su Xuan’s words. It suddenly clicked for them, and they finally understood why Su Xuan had taken this approach.

Zhou Qiang slapped Su Xuan on the shoulder and gave him a thumbs-up.

“Man, how did I not think of this? You’re amazing!”

“It seems like you have a plan!”

“Let’s seize the initiative now and see how that guy compares to us.”

“That guy, when he came to our unit, I didn’t like the way he acted at all…”

“He had this arrogant face, as if someone owed him something…”

“If it weren’t for the fact that he was from the Major Crimes Division and said that one thing, I would have punched him for sure!”

Zhou Qiang sneered as he spoke. This wasn’t a lie. If it hadn’t been for his colleagues restraining him, Zhou Qiang would have thrown a punch.

Su Xuan knew his partner’s temper all too well and could only shake his head in silence. It had to be him; otherwise, with Zhou Qiang’s short fuse, someone would have beaten him up sooner or later.

The case had originally been assigned to the Jiangcheng Police Station. The officer who responded to the call was none other than Su Xuan himself. As the first responder who witnessed the crime scene, he actually had a better understanding of the situation than anyone else present.

When Su Xuan and his team received the distress call and rushed to the scene, the perpetrator had already left. The call had been made by the female victim, who was barely holding on.

At the time they arrived, Su Xuan had activated his radar. Although they hadn’t been on the scene for long, the perpetrator should not have had enough time to escape too far. However, when they arrived, Su Xuan’s radar displayed nothing at all.

Assuming there was no issue with his system, there was only one possibility: when they arrived, the perpetrator had already fled, and by sheer coincidence, they hadn’t taken the route they used to get there.

This shouldn’t have been possible. The Jiangcheng Police Station was located right next to the residential complex, and it took only about five minutes to get there. Considering the time it took for the female victim to make the distress call and the time needed for dispatch, they had at most ten minutes.

This calculation didn’t account for their travel time…

This means that, excluding the time for the distress call and dispatch, there was only a five-minute window for the perpetrator to escape.

However, this residential complex had only one entrance and exit, making it nearly impossible for someone on foot to avoid encountering the police within those five minutes. Furthermore, Su Xuan’s radar covered a wide area, encompassing hundreds of meters around him. It was as if anyone passing in front of him would have been noticed, even a dog.

But strangely, at that moment, Su Xuan’s radar had given no indication.

“Let’s search more carefully,” Su Xuan said, “I have a feeling that today we might find some useful clues, or we might not!”

Zhou Qiang couldn’t help but wonder if Su Xuan was serving up a huge helping of optimism. Nevertheless, the thought of Officer Yu and his team downstairs searching for clues drove them to intensify their efforts. They began searching the area upstairs frantically.

Meanwhile, Su Xuan’s gaze was fixed on the door of the children’s room….
