Chapter 1466: The Return of An Old Friend
Ye Jian, who was a.s.sisting the Tongzhou police, raised her head and said to the male police officer who was recording, “This criminal has some connections. He has an uncle who is very close to the main culprit of the evil cult. When I was trying to get information from him, I found out that he was planning to let his uncle bring him to meet the ‘Grand Commissioner’ to take credit for his achievements.”
Facing the words of the biggest contributor tonight, the male policeman didn’t have any doubts. “Okay, I’ll report it immediately!”
“Okay, you’ve counted everything here, right?” Ye Jian had planned to hand the criminal over to the Tongzhou police before leaving. She took off her mask and looked at the male police officer with a faint smile in her black obsidian-like eyes. “The hotel crisis has been resolved. I think it’s time for me to leave. Thank you for your hard work, police brothers.”
The male police officer, who was about to pa.s.s the room next door, stopped in his tracks immediately. “Are you not staying at the hotel tonight? If you want to leave now, I’ll go and ask the deputy bureau chief first.” The male police officer was very young. He had just graduated from the police school. He didn’t have the authority to search outside and was still a little green. If not, he wouldn’t have stayed behind to clean the dangerous materials.
He said shyly, looking a little embarra.s.sed, “Before the Deputy Commissioner left, he told me that if you want to leave, I have to…”
As they were speaking, a few footsteps were heard. They walked very quickly and appeared in the room in the blink of an eye. The male policeman turned his head, and his shy expression turned serious. “Commissioner Cai, Deputy Commissioner!”
“Has everything been cleaned up? Did you find any other dangerous items?” The man who spoke was around 45 years old. He had a serious look on his face and had the dignity of a leader. He looked at the young male police officer with a gaze that was like a torch and said, “Be careful when taking inventory. Don’t make any mistakes.”
The male policeman straightened his back and replied, “Yes, Commissioner Cai!”
The deputy director said, “Commissioner Cai, this is Comrade Ye, who helped the Tongzhou police a lot tonight. It’s all thanks to her. If not, we wouldn’t have been able to complete the search so smoothly.”
He smiled and introduced Ye Jian, “Comrade Ye, this is Commissioner Cai.”
Compared to the deputy bureau chief, who was smiling comfortably, Ye Jian felt that the serious and righteous Commissioner Cai was easier to talk to. “h.e.l.lo, Commissioner Cai. I’m Ye Jian, an active soldier.”
She didn’t say anything else. Even the director didn’t mention it.
Commissioner Cai didn’t notice Ye Jian immediately when she was standing behind the male policeman. Now that she walked out gracefully, Commissioner Cai’s gaze landed on her face.
The young girl had the aura of a soldier. Even though she was wearing casual clothes, one could tell that she was a soldier with just one step.
However, that wasn’t the main point. The main issue was that when Commissioner Cai saw this young face clearly, his expression changed subtly. His stern and cold eyes flashed slightly before he reached out his hand. “Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Ye.”
This young face was familiar too. However, one of them had already fallen asleep, and the other was alive.
Another face that was sealed in his memory flashed past his mind. Looking at the similar face in front of him, Commissioner Cai felt his heart pounding.
He looked around the room that was filled with the smell of petrol. Commissioner Cai’s gaze turned deeper as he sized up Ye Jian again. “Let’s talk outside. Little Zhu can take care of this place.”
Little Zhu was the male policeman who had been talking to Ye Jian just now.
Sensing that there was something wrong with Commissioner Cai’s gaze, Ye Jian smiled and nodded. Then, she followed him out of the room.
The deputy director tactfully stayed behind and didn’t follow them. Director Cai had something to ask, so he didn’t need to follow them.
