In the Miao family's mansion in the western suburbs of the capital.
"Oh, I'm so impressed!" Looking at the octagonal cage in the hall, Zhao Yu said proudly, "Back then, I defeated the world's number one fighter, Sangrove, twice here!"
Miss Miao narrowed her eyes and exclaimed, "You're really thick-skinned! The first time was a sneak attack, and the second time was a fake punch. How dare you say that? "
"Hmph, haha …" Zhao Yu looked up and laughed. "Even if it was a sneak attack, not everyone can do it!
"Thorngrove's head has long been trained to be harder than a rock. I sent him to the ICU with a single punch. That's not something that can be ignored!"
Miao Ying pointed to the octagonal cage and said, "My uniform is in the locker room. Zhao Yu, why don't we have a match now? Don't go easy on me, okay? "
"Um …" Zhao Yu cupped his hands and said, "Please forgive me, Miss. Look at your watch. We're going to Heyang to investigate the case. The high-speed train doesn't wait for people …"
Originally, Zhao Yu had booked a plane ticket, but because he had to take Li Jie home, the time didn't match, so he had to change to the high-speed train.
Prior to this, Miao Kun had arranged everything for Li Jie, including his life and studies. He had hired someone to take care of him.
The child still didn't understand Chinese, so he had to hire a tutor first. When he could communicate with people in the future, he could go to school.
Miao Ying looked at her watch and said, "There's still an hour left. I haven't used the new tricks I learned in the Secret Service yet …"
"Forget it, Miss." Zhao Yu waved his hand again. "I give up, okay? Since I still have to solve the case, please let me off this time!
"I'm physically and mentally exhausted now. Let me rest …"
"Hmph, do you know what physical and mental exhaustion means?" Miao Ying said. "I see that you're full of energy. You have a good relationship with Division Chief Jiao. She won't make things difficult for you if you quit this case!
"Why do you have to do this? There are so many special investigation groups in the Central Criminal Division. Why did you have to go? "
"Well, I chose that myself," Zhao Yu said. "Division Chief Jiao thought that I couldn't tell. She was being too deliberate on the phone call right in front of me. She was acting all by herself!
"I know what she's trying to do. She wants me to be interested in this case so that I'll volunteer myself. Then, she'll sell me a favor …"
"F * ck, it can't be, right? Division Chief Jiao has such thoughts? "Miao Ying frowned." Then why did you agree? "
"Hehe," Zhao Yu chuckled. "Division Chief Jiao really put a lot of thought into this! I could see that she attached great importance to this case. She wouldn't feel at ease if she sent someone else, but she didn't want to order me directly. That's why she did it …
"It's definitely not a small case," Zhao Yu said. "So, let's go to Heyang.
"Maybe it's tricky for others, but for me, Detective Zhao, it's just a relaxing vacation!"
"If it weren't for my ladylike image, I'd slap you in the face," Miao Ying said seriously. "You make it sound so easy, but when has solving a case been easy?"
"Hehe …" Zhao Yu chuckled again, then put his hand on Miao Ying's shoulder. "It can't be helped. Your husband is so dedicated."
"Child, child …" Just then, the two of them heard a woman's voice coming from the octagonal iron cage.
Their godson, Li Jie, was playing in the iron cage when he suddenly fell down. An elderly woman rushed forward to help him.
This woman was the one who had pretended to be Mrs. Miao when Zhao Yu first came.
It wasn't until a long time later that Zhao Yu realized that Mrs. Miao was a fake.
Zhao Yu remembered that when he first met Miao Ying, he had overheard a conversation between Mrs. Miao and Miao Ying. Mrs. Miao's tone on the phone was arrogant, and it was obvious that she wasn't a kind person.
However, the woman he met in the Miao Residence was gentle and graceful. It turned out that she was just the housekeeper of the Miao Residence.
In the past, Miao Ying had also talked to Zhao Yu about Mrs. Miao, saying that Mrs. Miao also worked in a secret department. When Miao Ying was very young, she divorced Miao Kun because of some issues.
It turned out that Miao Kun was single. No wonder he was so forthright every time he went abroad.
In the past, Zhao Yu thought that he had something on his father-in-law, but in fact, Miao Kun had nothing to fear.
"So …" Zhao Yu asked Miao Ying, "You haven't seen your mother for a long time?"
"Who said so?" Miao Ying smiled. "We see each other often, but every time, it's her who comes to see me! Just like my dad! "
"Wow, then your life is really strange!" Zhao Yu sighed, then asked, "It seems that it's very difficult to get together as a family, right?"
"It's not difficult, it's impossible!" Miao Ying said. "Especially during the New Year … So, when you joined the Secret Service, think about how I felt!
"From then on, the three most important people in my life became elusive. I can only see you when you want to see me!
But, when I want to see you, I don't even know if you're alive or dead.
I'm afraid that's a strange feeling, isn't it? "
"Oh …" Zhao Yu's heart was deeply moved, and he said with self-blame, "I didn't realize until today that you worked so hard to join the Secret Service not because of your hobbies, but because you wanted us to be together and never be separated!"
"This is actually quite hurtful," Miao Ying said, crossing her arms. "You're a detective. How can you only understand this now?"
"I'm sorry, Miao Miao …" Zhao Yu was moved and hugged Miao Ying. "I neglected your feelings! Don't worry, from now on, we will never be separated again. No matter what the mission is in the future, I only have one condition, and that is to have my dear wife accompany me! "
"Well … That's more like it!" Miao Ying nodded with satisfaction.
"Now …" Zhao Yu said, thinking, "I understand another important thing!"
"What is it?"
Miao Ying asked. "No wonder, when you heard that I beat up your dad, not only did you not feel angry, but you even became a little angry!
Do you think that's a good way to vent your anger? "
"Hahaha …" Miao Ying's words made Miao Ying laugh. "Actually, a little bit! My dad thinks highly of himself, and no one dares to provoke him!
Just thinking about being suddenly beaten up by the son-in-law … Hehehe … "
Seeing Miao Ying's grin, Zhao Yu covered his face and was speechless.
At this time, the housekeeper's mother had already led Li Jie out of the octagonal iron cage. Zhao Yu and Miao Ying looked at the time and saw that it was time to leave.
So, regardless of whether Li Jie understood or not, the two of them went forward to talk to the child, then said goodbye to the housekeeper's mother and embarked on their journey to Heyang.
