Be in low spirits

Chapter 142 First Contact

In the second year after Kong Zhixi graduated from school and started working, she saved some money and bought herself a plane ticket to Yili. She made a lot of plans, but in the end she felt it was too troublesome and decided to just travel wherever she wanted.

On the first day of her leave, she overslept and almost missed her flight. She rushed to the airport and ran around the airport, where the airport broadcast kept emphasizing the boarding time of her flight.

Li Li held the intercom and said nervously to Fu Yan on the second floor: "He may have already checked in, you can go to the waiting room to check." The old injury on his leg began to ache again, and he was afraid that he would not be able to arrive in time.

Finally she arrived at the departure lounge. The boarding gate was not far away. She breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her watch, and slowed down to see that she could catch up.

Someone in the waiting room shouted, "Stop!" Kong Zhixi saw a man about ten meters away turning around and running hurriedly. She stretched out her foot and tripped the man, and the surrounding security personnel rushed up and handcuffed him.

It was the first time she witnessed such an arrest. She saw the person in charge on the second floor and made a "yeah" gesture to him.

When Li Li arrived, the man had already been caught. Fu Yan waved his hand to the people downstairs to show his gratitude. He looked downstairs and asked, "Do you know him?"

"I don't know him, but it's a good thing this girl tripped him."

Li Li looked at the people downstairs. She looked at the watch on her wrist, panicked, and ran to the boarding gate. Even though she was dragging a suitcase, she was as agile as an elf.

She was wearing a slim denim short-sleeved shirt with a large lapel, a denim skirt of the same color, white shoes and socks, a white camellia under her ponytail, a green suitcase, and a woven hat. She was obviously traveling. Seeing her running, his mood also soared, and his legs didn't seem to hurt anymore. "Check this woman and see if she has any connection with the suspect."

"Huh? Are you too sensitive?" Fu Yan had never seen him like this. He was smiling at people just now, but now he asked someone to investigate.

"It's always right to check." After all, he had just become the captain of the criminal police team, so it was always right to think carefully. What's more, he also wanted to know the girl's name.

Fu Yan copied the video of the arrest scene back to the team and gave it to Song Ci from the technical team. Looking at the personnel information he had found, he snorted coldly. This Li Li had a really bad intuition about personnel. He could even find out the family members of the police officers.

Li Li came back to the team from outside and met Fu Yan who was holding a folder. "How is it? Is there any contact?" He walked towards his office.

Fu Yan followed him and replied: "Your eyes are quite sharp. It has nothing to do with the suspect, but with the police."

"Police? Who?" He opened the office door, sat on the office chair, and opened the case file in front of him.

"My name is Kong Zhixi, I'm 24 years old, I graduated from an art school with a major in game design, and I'm flying to Yili, as if I'm going on a trip." Fu Yan reported truthfully.

"Kong Zhixi? Why does this name sound so familiar? Who is she to Kong Zhiting, the new medical examiner at the Municipal Bureau?"

"Oh, that's right. Kong Zhiting is her sister, and Chief Kong from Binjiang Police Station is her father. Isn't that a coincidence? You can even see that." Fu Yan sat opposite him, watching his reaction.

He snatched the information from his hand. Kong Zhixi, what a good name. The daughter of Chief Kong from Binjiang Police Station, interesting. "Ahem, it's okay." He threw the information to the person opposite him, feeling a little embarrassed.

"It's okay, just check them out." Fu Yan seemed to see through his thoughts and walked out of the office with the information.

He touched the fractured bone on his leg and it started to hurt again. He thought he would have to go to the hospital.

The doctor looked at the film and said, "There is indeed a crack, but it's not serious. It will heal on its own after a while. Try to reduce leg movement as much as possible."

Since there was no problem, he didn't waste any more time and went back to the team to work overtime. In the hospital corridor, he met Kong Zhiting who came to hand in the information. He had met her once at the Municipal Bureau and passed by her. After hesitating for a few minutes, he finally said hello: "Forensic Doctor Kong?"

Kong Zhiting turned around and felt like she had seen this person before, but she couldn't remember who he was. "Who are you?"

"I'm Li Li from the Jianglin District Criminal Investigation Team. I met your master and you at the Municipal Bureau last time."

"Oh, Captain Li, I remember now. Sorry, you can just call me Zhiting, not the medical doctor. Are you here to see a doctor?"

"Well, I broke a bone before, so I came to check it out today. What's wrong with you?"

"Oh, Professor Yang from the Department of Internal Medicine of the Human Medicine Department is my mentor. I came to ask him some questions."

"Oh, you're busy. I won't bother you." After saying hello, he was about to go back, but then he remembered something and turned around to ask, "You... do you have a sister?"

"What's wrong with my sister?" She seemed to have not seen her sister for three or four weeks. The last time they saw her, they seemed to be planning a trip.

"Oh, nothing, just asking casually." He didn't know how he asked this question, and after thinking about it, he didn't know what to ask, so he ended the topic awkwardly.

After returning from Xinjiang, Kong Zhixi dragged her suitcase back home. She didn't sleep well during the half-month trip. After sending a WeChat message to her mother, she fell asleep on the bed.

Because of a case, Li Li went to Binjiang Police Station to find Chief Kong. After getting the information, he asked for some unknown reason: "Chief Kong, do you have anything tonight? How about I treat you to dinner?" He waved the information in his hand as a way of thanking him for his cooperation in work.

"No need to trouble you. Captain Li, if you don't mind, you can come to my house for dinner tonight. Zhiting will be back soon." Kong Jianping had heard of this Li Li before. He was the newly appointed captain of the Criminal Police Brigade.

He was a little hesitant, but seemed to be expecting something. "Will it be inconvenient?"

"No, Captain Li can come whenever he has time. My colleagues in the institute also often come to my place for dinner. My wife is used to it." Kong Jianping felt that this was a very common thing.

"Okay, I'll go over there tonight, please excuse me, Chief Kong."

He returned to the team and discussed the case with Fu Yan. "The Zhao family's case may not be that simple. I have an idea and would like to ask for your opinion."

"If you have something to say, just tell me. Why are you asking for my opinion? That's not a good thing, is it?" He was sitting in his office, and they were sitting face to face. Judging from his serious expression, it must be a big case.

"I need you to go undercover in the Zhao family and investigate the relationship between their group and several other wealthy families."

"What is my identity?" It does sound like a heavy task.

"Foreign mercenaries, sneaking in as security personnel."

"This matter..."

"Someone in the provincial department and municipal bureau knows your identity."

"Okay, when do we act?" Fu Yan had no worries and followed orders in all actions.

Li Li had many uncertainties about this operation, and he couldn't give an answer as to when it would end. "Report tomorrow, be careful." He was worried, feeling that something was going to happen, and he was hesitant about whether to give the information in front of him.

Fu Yan saw what he was thinking, snatched the information away, and said, "Okay, this is the identity information, right? I'll take it back and take a look."

Li Li held down the information and emphasized again solemnly: "Be careful."

"Alright! You're making it seem like we're parting forever." Fu Yan slapped his hand away heartlessly and took the information away.

When Kong's mother returned home in the evening, she looked at her daughter sleeping in the room and the suitcase still standing there unopened, and went back to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Before dinner that night, Kong Zhixi touched her cell phone and opened her eyes. It was past 7 o'clock and there was some noise in the living room. Someone must have come. She took out clothes from the closet, changed them, opened the door, and slipped into the bathroom to brush her teeth and wash her face.

After brushing her teeth and combing her hair, she walked past the living room and into the kitchen to see the dinner her parents were preparing. She picked up a piece of braised beef and said, "Dad, how did you have time to make braised beef?" Mother Kong slapped her hand away and scolded her, "Did you wash your hands? You're eating right after you got up! There are guests outside, and you don't know how to be careful."

"I've washed myself. Isn't the customer Uncle Zhang from the police station? It's not his first time here. Zhiting hasn't come back yet?"

Kong Jianping always felt bad for his daughter, and seeing her like this made him even more angry: "If you have nothing to do, think about your future, don't be so careless all the time. Today, besides your uncle Zhang, there is also a young man, so be careful."

"Tsk, if you want to discuss the case, just go outside and do it. Why invite people home?" She still looks down on this old man.

Coming out of the kitchen, she sat on the coffee table and poured herself a glass of water, and greeted Uncle Zhang. "Uncle Zhang, you haven't been here for a long time. Isn't Aunt Zhang going to cook for you today?"
