Team Leader Qu Ping's departure was very sudden.
Miao Ying's arrival was even more sudden.
Actually, in a well-informed place like the Key Case Investigation Unit, whenever there was a major personnel change, people would usually get some information beforehand.
But Miao Ying's arrival was completely unexpected. Not only did the normal investigators not know, even Mao Wei and Liu Changhu did not know.
Actually, even Bureau Chief Luan Xiaoxiao, who had just led Miao Ying in and introduced her, was not prepared at all.
She only learned of the news when Bureau Chief Zhou called to inform her. Before this, she did not even know that the position of Team B's team leader would be taken over so quickly.
Because of this, Miao Ying's sudden arrival made the atmosphere at the scene awkward.
Over the past few days, the investigators had been guessing who would be the next team leader. Some felt that if they were talking about seniority, either Peng Xin would be transferred over to be the team leader, or one of the older investigators in Team B would be promoted.
But no one had expected that the higher-ups would transfer a newcomer from the faraway Ruyang Police Station to be the team leader! Plus, when everyone heard that Miao Ying used to be a criminal police team leader, they were even more confused.
Even though it was a little awkward, they still had to carry on. After Bureau Chief Luan's introduction, Miao Ying also gave a brief self-introduction and said that she would work hard with everyone, hoping for everyone's support.
All in all, after the small talk, the Mianling Case analysis meeting continued. Miao Ying did not stand on ceremony. She pulled a chair and sat in the middle of the crowd, listening to Mao Wei's investigation thoughts.
Actually, Mao Wei's investigation thoughts were nothing new. He completely copied Team Leader Qu Ping's things from when she was still alive. Even the information on the whiteboard was not touched.
Zhao Yu listened carefully for a while and realized that the clue he had gotten from Yang Wentao regarding Cheng Sanli had already been abandoned.
In the few days that Zhao Yu was not at work, the investigators had investigated Cheng Sanli's information in detail. They had also found a copy of the silver mine contract from Yang Wentao's computer.
In the end, the date on the contract proved that Cheng Sanli had contracted those mines thirty years ago. Another piece of information showed that after Cheng Sanli contracted the silver mine, he had indeed dug out silver and made a fortune from it, becoming even wealthier.
From this, it could be deduced that Cheng Sanli was already very rich before the Mianling case! The possibility of him being one of the Mianling kidnappers was very low.
After hearing the news, Zhao Yu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. If Cheng Sanli's clue didn't work, then he only had one last hope left, which was the truth behind Qu Ping's death!
If Qu Ping's murder was really related to the Mianling Case, then finding out the truth behind Qu Ping's murder would mean finding clues to the Mianling Case, and it would be important!
Thus, Zhao Yu decided to stick to his original plan and use the lie detector on Hou Meng to find out what was going on.
As it was Miao Ying's first time here, she was still familiar with the investigators. So after the case meeting in the morning, Miao Ying returned to Team B and got to know her team members one by one. Then, she left work early for lunch.
On the other hand, Zhao Yu's Team A was very lively. Not only were they happy for Zhao Yu's return, but they also invited him to treat them.
But Zhao Yu was focused on the case, so he used the excuse that his stitches needed to be removed as an excuse. He said that it was not a big deal to treat them to a meal, and that he would definitely treat everyone once he recovered.
After work, Zhao Yu was not in the mood for lunch. Early in the morning, he asked Li Beini to help him make an appointment at the detention center, intending to interrogate Hou Meng immediately.
On the way to the detention center, he felt uneasy.
Too many things had happened in the past few days. He had a feeling that there was an invisible force obstructing him from investigating the case! Every time he put his heart and soul into investigating the case, there would always be some kind of accident.
He really didn't know if there would be another accident this time.
Also, Miao Ying's sudden arrival had caught him off guard. Even though he was arrogant and mischievous in front of Miao Ying, every time Miao Ying left, he would always feel a strange emptiness in his heart.
Originally, he felt that he had a stomach full of things to say to Miao Ying, but after seeing her, it was as if he could not control himself and only knew how to go against her!
Tsk tsk …
Zhao Yu guessed that Miao Ying suddenly becoming his colleague might have triggered his lovesickness again. His mind was filled with Miao Ying's valiant appearance and her soft red lips …
Tsk tsk …
Since I have the opportunity to see Miao Renfeng every day, does that mean that I will have more opportunities in the future? Or maybe I will have more opportunities to get beaten up by her?
Just like that, Zhao Yu finally arrived at the detention center while his thoughts ran wild. But when he contacted the other party, his colleague at the detention center told him that there was a female police officer from the Rùng Branch already interrogating Hou Meng.
Eh?
Zhao Yu was surprised and immediately looked at the interrogation record. In the end, Miao Xiaoying's name suddenly appeared on the paper.
It's her?!
It can't be?
Isn't this too much of a coincidence?!
What's going on?
I'm interrogating Hou Meng because I have something important to ask! But what about her? Why is she interrogating Hou Meng?
Could it be …
Zhao Yu was not an idiot. Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something. This Miao Ying … could it be … her goal is the same as mine? Is she also investigating … the truth behind Qu Ping's death?
Oh …
Zhao Yu suddenly understood. After all this time, Miao Ying had been transferred to the Rùng Key Case Investigation Unit, and had even taken over Qu Ping's position with a demotion. She must have had a special purpose!
No wonder no one had received any information beforehand!
Then …
If that's the case …
Zhao Yu looked at his watch. It was a quarter past twelve in the afternoon. He calculated in his heart. The police station closed at eleven fifty, and Miao Ying arrived at eleven fifty-five. This meant that she had not eaten lunch yet. Secondly, she had just started interrogating Hou Meng, so she should not be out yet.
Thus, Zhao Yu thought about it seriously, and thought about the "Kan Zhen" hexagram that he had gotten that day. He quickly came up with a plan.
If his plan worked, then not only could he find clues from Hou Meng, but he could also ease the hostility between him and Miao Ying. There was even the possibility of turning enemies into friends!
Thus, Zhao Yu first called Pizza Hut and ordered two takeouts. He then sat on the long bench outside the interrogation room and waited patiently.
Five minutes later, the takeout arrived on time.
Eight minutes later, Miao Ying, who had finished interrogating Hou Meng, came out of the interrogation room and saw Zhao Yu, who had single-handedly offered the takeout to her!
Miao Ying naturally did not take it. She only glared at Zhao Yu and scolded, "Zhao Yu, what's the point of doing this? Why are you following me? "
"Hehe," Zhao Yu was not surprised. "I knew you would say that! But, if I told you that it was the same situation as when I met Zhang from your department at Yulangdian, and that it was just a coincidence, what would you think? "
Unexpectedly, Miao Ying shook her head impatiently and turned to leave. She did not even bother saying "I can't be bothered with you."
"Team Leader Miao!" Zhao Yu was still holding the takeout high and said confidently, "Oh … now I should call you Team Leader Miao! Let me guess, when you interrogated Hou Meng just now, did you not get a satisfactory answer? "
Sensing that Zhao Yu was implying something, Miao Ying's long legs suddenly stopped, but she did not turn around.
"I know, Team Leader Qu Ping's death is very suspicious!" Zhao Yu said seriously, "I know those people who take drugs and don't have a clear mind. There's no way they could have killed Team Leader Qu Ping!"
"Zhao Yu, what exactly do you want?" Miao Ying still did not turn around and asked.
"Hehe, do you remember how I interrogated Liu Pengfei?" Zhao Yu smiled. "For today's interrogation, I've been preparing for a long time! Maybe I can be of help! "
This time, Miao Ying was obviously moved. Thinking back to Zhao Yu's miraculous performance when he interrogated Liu Pengfei, she could not help but turn around.
