After receiving Su Xiaonuan's promise, Aunt Chen told Su Xiaonuan the house number and then left with Xiaotian and Xiaoli.

As he left, he turned back several times, repeatedly telling Xiao Nuan to make sure she went home to support the children.

"How do you plan to handle this?" Su Ming looked at his daughter with difficulty. "Is it appropriate to go and invite trouble? In the end, this is still someone else's family matter."

"We have to go even if it's not suitable, otherwise those two kids will be beaten to death."

"Our daughter has such a kind heart," Ye Mei praised her daughter. "Mom supports you."

"Mom, take DouDou and GuoGuo home. If anyone knocks on the door, don't open it." Su Xiaonuan pulled Su Ming along. "Dad, come on, I'll go make a phone call first."

Su Xiaonuan dragged her father to the public phone booth in the community to make a call. She called the Fengshou Town Police Station, and through the introduction of the people at the Fengshou Town Police Station, and then through the layers of connections, she successfully contacted the people at the Provincial Public Security Bureau.

Previously, Su Xiaonuan had solved several long-standing cases in neighboring towns, which made her famous and her reputation had already reached the Provincial Public Security Bureau.

She even turned down an offer from the Public Security Bureau.

After hanging up the phone, Su Xiaonuan and Su Ming lingered by the roadside.

"Xiao Nuan, you said the police station will come, is that true?" Su Ming was a little incredulous. Even if he tried to pull some strings, they might not come at this time. It was already after get off work hours, who would bother with such trivial matters?

"Dad, it's true." Su Xiaonuan pointed to the police car approaching from the front. "Dad, look, the police car is here."

"Are you sure you called it?" Su Ming still didn't believe it, thinking it was just a passing police car.

No sooner had they finished speaking than the police car stopped in front of them.

And it wasn't just one police car.

Then another police car stopped.

About ten people got out of the two police cars.

The person walking in front is a very important person.

Su Ming was stunned, his mouth agape. He recognized the important figure shaking hands with his daughter; it was Director Lu of the Zaoyang Public Security Bureau.

Good heavens, how is this possible?

My daughter actually shook hands with Director Lu?

After making a few phone calls, Xiao Nuan actually managed to get Director Lu to come over, and it was even after get off work hours.

That was such a surprise!

"Comrade Su, hello!" Director Lu said excitedly. "I'm so glad to finally meet you in person. I didn't expect you to be even younger than in the photos. Your name has already reached the Provincial Public Security Department. Everyone thought you would join our public security system, and we were even planning to transfer you to the provincial capital after you joined. I didn't expect you to refuse. Everyone was looking forward to your joining us. You are a person with special abilities. It's a real pity that you are not being used by the country!"

Director Lu was able to recognize Su Xiaonuan at a glance because he had also seen all the information about Su Xiaonuan.

"Who are you?" Su Xiaonuan asked.

"Comrade Su, this is Director Lu," the police officer next to him immediately introduced.

"Oh, it's Director Lu! My apologies!" Su Xiaonuan said politely. "Look at me, I was so ignorant. I even bothered Director Lu with such a small matter. I'm so sorry!"

Su Ming could hardly believe it. Was this still his spoiled and willful daughter? The girl who used to be so indifferent to social niceties had now become so shrewd and adept at workplace rhetoric.

"Comrade Su, let's skip the formalities and come on, let's take care of your business first." Director Lu waved his hand, and a dozen fully armed police officers followed.

Su Xiaonuan explained Xie Zhi's family situation, hoping they would arrest Xie Zhi and his daughter Lan Yin for a few days on charges of child abuse.

"No problem, you can detain them for as many days as you want," Director Lu said readily. "The children have injuries, that's evidence. Even if they don't, we can find a few witnesses to the beating of the children at the school gate. Detaining them for a few days isn't a big deal. But afterwards, could you help us solve an old case?"

"Deal." Su Xiaonuan readily agreed.

Su Ming was even more dumbfounded. His daughter could solve cases?

Or is it an old case that even the provincial public security bureau couldn't solve?

"Dad, let's go!" Xiao Nuan took Su Ming's hand as they walked up to him.

"Is this your father?" Director Lu's eyes widened.

"Yes. This is my dad." Xiao Nuan nodded. "Is there something wrong?"

Director Lu punched Su Ming. "Old Su, I never knew Comrade Su was your daughter. If I had known, I would have come to find you long ago. You really raised a good daughter. She's famous throughout our public security system."

"Are you talking about my Xiaonuan?" Su Ming looked completely bewildered. "She's always been in the countryside; she only recently returned to the provincial capital. How could she be involved with your police station?"

"Is there anything wrong with this?" Director Lu pointed at Su Xiaonuan. "Is she your daughter?"

"yes."

"Then it can't be wrong."

Director Lu put his hand on Su Ming's shoulder, and like an old friend, they talked for a while. He learned that Su Ming hadn't contacted his daughter for several years. As they walked, he told Su Ming about the cases that Xiao Nuan had solved.

Upon hearing this, Su Ming's expression could only be described as shocked.

"Old Su, you two have really gone too far, not contacting your daughter for years."

"We really made a mistake in this matter, causing our child to suffer a lot of grievances outside." Su Ming lowered his head in remorse.

Director Lu pulled Su Ming aside and whispered, "Why don't you persuade Comrade Su to come work at our Public Security Bureau? If she wants to come, she will definitely be treated well in terms of salary and benefits. She has talent in this area, and it would be a waste of her talent if she didn't join our system."

"I still respect my child's choice." Su Ming knew perfectly well that his daughter working at the police station would bring her both prestige and security, but it would also greatly increase the risk of danger. Personally, he didn't want his daughter to work at the police station.

Having only one daughter and being the mother of two, Su Ming was extremely unwilling. His answer to Director Lu was tantamount to passing the buck back to him.

Xiao Nuan refused to work at the police station, and if she had to choose again, her answer would definitely be the same.

Su Ming, a former soldier, was initially surprised by his daughter's outstanding abilities, but eventually came to accept them.

He even felt a little proud, thinking that his daughter had inherited his talent, but was just a bit slow to realize it.

It's worth noting that he was very interested in solving cases when he was young, and his family did indeed buy quite a few books on crime-solving.

"What you've said is as good as nothing," Director Lu shook his head, pointing at him. "You really are a cunning old fox."

"What are you talking about?" Su Xiaonuan had noticed it long ago. Although she hadn't heard it, she was sure that their conversation was about her.

“I’m saying, your dad will take care of the kids for a while, and you need to focus on helping us for a period of time.” Lu Kuan immediately reminded Su Xiaonuan, “You can’t go back on your word about this, okay?”

“Director Lu, this matter can only be done in three days.” Su Xiaonuan stepped back to his side and made a pleading gesture. “I will definitely keep my promise in three days.”

"Why does it have to be three days later? Can't it be tomorrow?" Lu Kuan asked impatiently.
