"Sister, don't joke around. I'm talking about serious business."
"I'm talking about serious business. You've been divorced for several years. It's time for you to find one. You'll be an old man in a few years. No one will like you," Wang Huifang said.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Am I an old man now?" Han Weidong knocked on the table.
"Of course. Do you think you're still a young man?" Wang Huifang asked.
"I …"
Han Weidong choked. He raised his glass and said, "Qingsheng, cheers."
Wang Qingsheng took a sip of wine and said, "Sister, I'm talking about something important at work. Listen to me first."
Han Weidong glanced at Wang Huifang and said, "Women shouldn't interrupt when men are talking."
Wang Huifang snorted and said, "Show me what you're capable of."
"Alright, stop talking. Listen to what my uncle is going to do." Han Bin waved his hand. Maybe it was menopause, but Han Weidong and Wang Huifang had been quarreling recently.
Wang Qingsheng looked at his nephew with appreciation. He cleared his throat and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, Brother Bin, I now solemnly announce that I'm going to open my own antique shop."
"Qingsheng, don't you have a shop on the antique street?" Wang Huifang was puzzled.
"Sister, don't always focus on my life. Pay attention to my work. The place where I do business on the antique street is at best a stall."
"It's a street stall," Han Weidong added.
"How do you know?" Wang Huifang said.
"As your brother-in-law, I'm very concerned about Qingsheng's work. I've gone to see it."
Han Bin lowered his head and said nothing. He had also been there.
Although jobs didn't discriminate between the rich and the poor, seeing his uncle's fat body sitting on a stool and having to bend his back strenuously, he didn't feel good.
"Then let's open one. How can we do business without a decent shop?" Wang Huifang whispered.
"Cough …"
Wang Qingsheng coughed lightly and continued, "I've saved some money over the past few years. A few days ago, I heard from a friend that there's a shop on the Antique Street that's going to be transferred, so I wanted to make an appointment to go take a look."
"How much does it cost to take over such a shop?" Wang Huifang asked.
"I've asked about the price. I reckon that I can lower it further. The money I've saved should be enough for the transfer fee." Wang Qingsheng smiled.
"From now on, you should call me Boss Wang."
"Look at how arrogant you are. Things haven't even started yet. Don't get cheated again this time." Wang Huifang reminded.
"Sis, don't bring up the past so often," Wang Qingsheng said helplessly.
"How about this? I'll ask your brother-in-law to go with you and help you check," Wang Huifang said.
Han Weidong ate a mouthful of food and hesitated for a while. "It's not convenient for me to go. You should go with me."
"What can I do if I go? I don't know anything," Wang Huifang said.
"Let Brother Bin go with me," Wang Qingsheng suggested.
Taking over a shop was not a small matter. With a family member present, he would feel at ease.
"Okay."
Han Bin didn't care. He just regarded it as a trip and could get some delicious food.
"That's settled then. I'll call you when I've contacted them."
"Uncle, it has to be on Saturday and Sunday. I don't have time on weekdays," Han Bin said.
"I've known your father for so many years. How can I not know?" Wang Qingsheng said carelessly.
The family hadn't gathered for a long time. They chatted and drank as they ate. Han Bin opened another bottle of wine and Wang Huifang also drank a few glasses.
After the meal, the four of them drank two bottles of wine. As they were afraid that there would be an emergency case at night, Han Bin didn't drink much. It was mainly Han Weidong and Wang Qingsheng who drank and were a little tipsy.
There was an empty room in the house. Wang Qingsheng didn't leave and slept there that night.
…
The next day.
Han Bin came to the police station early in the morning and began to prepare the materials to close the case.
After Luo Xinghua confessed, he revealed new clues. He wanted to testify against Tang Yu and Xiang Hongbo for extortion.
Zeng Ping and the others interrogated Tang Yu and Xiang Hongbo again. Under the witness, recordings, surveillance cameras, bank accounts, and other evidence, Tang Yu and Xiang Hongbo admitted to the extortion.
The evidence, confessions, and files had to be reorganized. They were busy for half a day before the case was closed.
At this time, Team 2 could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Zeng Ping stretched. "The case is finally solved. It wasn't easy."
As the leader of Team 2 and the person in charge of the case, Zeng Ping was under a lot of pressure. Before He Shirui and Tang Yu's phones were found, there was not enough evidence to close the case. He was even worried that the case would be left unsolved.
Luckily, with the hard work of Team 2, the case was solved successfully.
The female corpses case had a huge impact. It was like a double-edged sword. If they couldn't solve it, they would definitely be criticized by the higher-ups. But if they solved it, the reward would be generous.
Last night, a higher-up from the police station called and praised Team 2 and Zeng Ping in private. He also told Zeng Ping not to slack off and to continue working hard. He also told the organization to be prepared to give him more responsibilities.
Hearing that, Zeng Ping was so excited that he couldn't sleep for half the night. Because the female corpses case was special, considering the impact from all sides, this case would not be publicized. However, as long as the higher-ups knew about it and recognized the merit, Zeng Ping was satisfied.
His hard work wasn't in vain.
"Everyone, come look. The results for this month's Police Star Selection are out," Tian Li shouted.
Zeng Ping, Li Hui, Zhao Ming, and the others all gathered around. Han Bin wasn't in a hurry. He poured a cup of tea and walked over slowly.
Tian Li's computer screen showed the local area network. The "Police Star Selection" section had the words "Advanced Criminal Investigation Team 3," followed by the words "Learning from the Role Model" and "Serving the People". There was also a group photo of the Criminal Investigation Team 3.
"Our Team 3 is the Advanced Criminal Investigation Team," Zhao Ming said.
"Of course. We just solved the female corpses case. Who else should we give it to?" Li Hui chuckled. He was already thinking about how to spend the 600 yuan.
"Who's the Advanced Criminal Investigation Team?" Zeng Ping asked.
Tian Li moved the mouse and scrolled down to the "Police Star Selection" for the Advanced Criminal Investigation Team.
The winner column was Han Bin's name.
Below it was a photo of Han Bin in his police uniform. He was tall, handsome, and stylish!
Many girls who were obsessed with uniforms liked this style.
"Tsk, tsk." Zeng Ping smacked his lips and joked, "Which family's young man is this? He's just like me when I was young!"
Li Hui covered his face with both hands and pretended to be a woman's voice. "Aiya, this police oppa is so handsome. I like him so much."
Tian Li rolled her eyes. "Pervert!"
"Pervert + 1," Zhao Ming echoed.
Li Hui stretched out his right hand and gave them the middle finger.
"Ahem."
Han Bin cleared his throat. "Don't be envious. Don't be jealous. Keep a normal heart. As long as you are down-to-earth, diligent, and hardworking, everyone will have a chance."
"Shhh …"
As soon as Han Bin finished speaking, there was a round of boos.
Li Hui suddenly raised his right hand and shouted, "Big kidneys."
Zhao Ming and Tian Li immediately responded, "Big kidneys."
Li Hui shouted again, "We want to eat big kidneys."
Han Bin was speechless.
This time, he couldn't avoid this treat.
