Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

It's 9:50 in the morning.

Yang Mei and Tang Cuifang walked into the police detective team's office building.

After receiving the call, Luo Fei took the elevator down to the first floor, and as soon as the elevator door opened, he saw the two walking towards him.

"Yang Mei, Aunt Tang."

"Luo Fei."

Quickly approaching them, he saw that Tang Cuifang's eyes were red, clearly from crying.

When Yang Mei came to the shop to inform her earlier, she thought the other was joking, only believing it was true once she got in the car.

The murderer of Zheng Bei has really been found!

Upon meeting, she grabbed Luo Fei's arm emotionally, "Luo Fei, has he confessed? Did he say why he killed our Old Zheng?"

This question seemed to have become an obsession that troubled her.

"Aunt Tang, please calm down. Let's go upstairs first and talk slowly."

"Yes, Aunt Tang, this is not the place to talk. Let's go upstairs and find Uncle."

Under their persuasion, the group headed upstairs.

"By the way, Aunt Tang, didn't you inform Zheng Huan?"

"No, Huanhuan is still studying, and I don't quite want her to know these details, so I didn't tell her."

"That's also good, she has a heavy workload now, there's no need to add more pressure on her."

They chatted as they walked, arriving at the door of Zhao Donglai's office, just in time to run into Liao Xingyu coming out from inside.

After nodding to greet Luo Fei, he looked at Yang Mei with some surprise, "Comrade Yang Mei, why do you have time to visit the police team today?"

Although they were not in the same department, they often saw each other at various occasions, gradually becoming familiar with each other's faces.

"I came with Aunt Tang to learn about my master's case."

"I see, Captain Zhao is inside, so you should go in quickly."

Yang Mei nodded, knocked, and opened Zhao Donglai's office door.

"Sister, you're here, have a seat."

Zhao Donglai greeted Tang Cuifang to sit down, then turned to look at Yang Mei, "Why are you here too, aren't you working today?"

"I took a day off, since my master taught me for a while, I also want to know why the murderer killed him."

"Understandable."

Zhao Donglai nodded in understanding.

Tang Cuifang couldn't wait and asked first, "Captain Zhao, can you tell me about the case now?"

"Sister, I will definitely tell you... but you should probably be compliant.

"Aunt Tang, I can tell you now, but you must remain calm."

"Okay, go ahead."

Only then did Zhao Donglai briefly explain the circumstances and reason for Zheng Bei's murder.

Although Tang Cuifang promised to stay calm beforehand, she ended up crying.

Especially upon hearing that Zheng Bei was killed for such absurd and ridiculous reasons, she couldn't stop sobbing.

Everyone present also felt deep sorrow for Zheng Bei's plight, and it took a while to soothe her into some peace.

Afterwards, she began holding Luo Fei's hand, continuously thanking him.

"Luo Fei, not only did you help me find Huanhuan, but you also solved Old Zheng's case, Aunt really doesn't know how to thank you..."

"Aunt Tang, don't say that, as a police officer, all this is my duty. Just live well, and that would be the best thanks to me."

Tang Cuifang's eyes reddened once more with emotion.

When they finally left the office, it was almost 10:30.

Yang Mei, somewhat reluctant, glanced at Luo Fei, "Then I'll first take Aunt Tang back."

"Okay, I'll walk you down." Luo Fei replied gloomily.

"No, Yang Mei, I can take the bus back myself. You rarely come to the city, so you should spend some time with Luo Fei."

Seeing the difficulty in parting between the young couple, Tang Cuifang quickly spoke up.

"No, I wouldn't feel at ease letting you go back alone in your current state."

"But you two..."

"No need to worry about us. Besides, Luo Fei will surely be busy with this case today. Even if I stay, he won't have time to accompany me."

Seeing Yang Mei say so, Tang Cuifang no longer objected.

At this moment, Luo Fei walked them both down to the parking lot.

"Yang Mei, drive slowly on the road, and remember to call me when you get back. I'll come over to see you this weekend."

While they were saying goodbye, Tang Cuifang, sitting in the passenger seat, remembered something, "Oh right, Luo Fei, if you're free this weekend, let's have a meal together—be sure to invite your mom and the others too."

Having done so much for their family, Luo Fei certainly needed to be shown some gratitude.

Anticipating his polite refusal, she added while putting on a stern face, "No declining, or Aunt Tang will be upset."

Luo Fei chuckled wryly, "How could I refuse an invitation from Aunt Tang? But there's no need to go out for dinner; just a simple meal at home will do."

"I'll arrange that, just make sure you all come over... okay, we're leaving now, and you should head back too."

"Okay, Aunt Tang, you two stay safe on the road."

After waving them goodbye, Luo Fei stood on the road, watching as Yang Mei's car drove out of the police station, then turned back inside.

Yang Mei was right; Luo Fei and the rest were indeed busy today.

Although Old Wu confessed to everything, the prosecutor wouldn't just accept the confession alone.

They still needed to complete the chain of evidence, including the motive for the murder and the steps of the crime, which needed to be clear and explicit.

So, everyone was very busy all morning, even having lunch in haste to quickly get back to work.

In the afternoon, to address some details that needed refinement, Luo Fei and Zhao Donglai conducted one final interrogation of Old Wu.
