The next morning, Qin Su got up very early. After a simple breakfast, she also went out.
As expected, Qin Yi did not come back. He probably really did stay in the Military District last night. Every time they quarreled, it was the same way. Qin Su was used to it.
She looked through all the information in her office and roughly understood the whole situation of the accident. However, by the time she finished organizing it, it was already noon. After having lunch in the Military District, she immediately set off for the city.
Qin Su’s troop company base was quite far from the city. Even if she did not get stuck in a traffic jam, it would still take her nearly two hours to drive there.
Qin Su was not too familiar with City Z. She grew up in the military compound and went to a Military Management School. Later on, she was admitted to the Commanding Officer School according to her wishes, after graduating, she was a.s.signed to the army. Over the years, she had been transferred to several places.
Therefore, Qin Su was not very familiar with City Z. She only roughly know a few important places, mainly where the government offices were at.
When the car entered the city, it was already past two o’clock in the afternoon. The sun in the sky was scorching, and the streets on both sides were full of people holding umbrellas as they walked. The air was very hot, and there was no wind at all.
Qin Su followed the navigation on her phone as she drove ahead. After crossing a few broad streets and roads, they finally entered the city’s northern district.
“Staff Officer Qin, the city’s Northern Traffic Control Bureau seems to be just a turn ahead!”
When they turned into a traffic port, the Deputy Officer, Xiao Xu, who was sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat, finally spoke.
Qin Su nodded, “City Z has changed a lot. When I came here a few years ago, there weren’t any flowers on either side. Also, it seems that these two buildings haven’t been completed yet.”
“Of course, especially the south side of the city, which is under development. If you go there, you won’t believe that it was the wild south side of the city before. Now, City Z has put out an advertis.e.m.e.nt saying that they want to build another bustling city south like the north side of the city. The government has also invested a lot in it. It’s much livelier there now than before.”
Xiao Xu was from another province and was a.s.signed here after graduation. He was very familiar with City Z.
“Staff Officer Qin is from this city, right?” Xiao Xu asked.
“Yes, I’m from this city, but I’m very unfamiliar with it,” Qin Su replied in a serious manner. There was no change on her beautiful and serious face, even though she had returned to the city that she had not seen for many years.
As he listened, Xiao Xu turned around and glanced at her. Seeing that she was not smiling, he stopped talking. At this time, the car slowly drove into the gate of the city’s Northern Traffic Control Bureau.
She showed the security guard her identification card. Soon, the car drove in as well.
…
At this moment, in the office of the Deputy Director of the Northern City Traffic Control Bureau, Su Chen.
Su Chen had just returned from the eastern side of the city. He had lunch with a few colleagues over there. After lunch, he rushed back to work and had reached on the dot.
“Chief Su, the people from the Military Region just called. Their people have already rushed over. It should be about time.”
Secretary He made a cup of tea and reminded Su Chen.
Su Chen nodded. He stood up and went to the shelf behind him to take out a doc.u.ment. He looked at it briefly before putting it back. “How many people will there be?”
“I think there are two. They are mainly here to help investigate the real cause of the car accident. I think the Military Region must have some considerations.”
Secretary He was experienced too. The fact that the Military Region took it so seriously meant that this car accident was not simple. Perhaps it really was not an accident, but a deliberate murder?
However, with the involvement of Master Li, the case had become a little complicated.
Su Chen took the tea and took a sip. “We’ll leave their matters to them, we’ll just cooperate as best as we can. Recently, accidents have been happening quite frequently, so we have to be more careful. We have to strengthen the investigation and publicity work.”
“Yes, Chief Su! I understand!”
‘Knock, knock—’
As soon as Secretary He finished speaking, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in!” Su Chen’s deep voice was heard very quickly.
The door opened very quickly, and a flash of military-green came into view. Su Chen and Secretary He subconsciously looked towards the door.
He thought that the woman standing in front of the door looked somewhat familiar, as if they have met before.
“Should be from the Military District!”
Secretary He quickly reacted and moved to Su Chen’s side. He lowered his voice and reminded him.
Su Chen’s handsome eyebrows also slightly raised as he silently looked at the woman in front of him. Behind her was a man who was also wearing a summer uniform.
The woman took a step forward and very naturally saluted. Her hoa.r.s.e voice was also heard—
“h.e.l.lo, I’m Qin Su from Division A, Division Commander Feng sent me to a.s.sist in the 81X car accident. This is my colleague, Xiao Xu. These are our doc.u.ments.”
As Qin Su said this, she quickly reached out to Xiao Xu behind her, and Xiao Xu tacitly handed over the doc.u.ments.
Qin Su!
When Su Chen heard this name, he immediately shuddered!
Qin Su, Qin Su!
Was she not the woman that Mu Yuchen had mentioned earlier?
No wonder he thought this woman looked familiar. It was actually Qin Su.
After not seeing her for a few years, she had not changed much from before. She was still as beautiful and cold as ice, but her voice seemed to have changed. It was a little hoa.r.s.e. It seemed like…
After calming down, Su Chen came back to his senses. He quickly stood up and walked over—
“h.e.l.lo, Staff Officer Qin, Comrade Xu. Welcome. Please take a seat!”
The two of them listened and nodded. They followed him and sat down.
Secretary He quickly poured tea for the two of them.
“Staff Officer Qin looks very familiar. I think we’ve met before. I wonder if Staff Officer Qin feels the same way about me?”
Su Chen looked at Qin Su who leisurely leaned back on the sofa. He held his tea and took a casual sip.
Hearing this, Qin Su also frowned. She stared at Su Chen for a long time. Her eyes were sharp and immediately thought that he looked familiar. Hence, she quickly racked her brains. After a while, he seemed to have found the answer—
“You are… you are… Su Chen?”
Su Chen smiled when he heard this. He smiled happily and said, “It’s my honor. It seems that Staff Officer Qin can still remember my name. We haven’t seen each other for many years!”
