I Rely on the Informant System to Be an Enthusiastic Citizen in Crime Fiction

Guan Xia was reborn with her memories intact, always believing she had a script for a second chance at life, one filled with striving and making progress. Thus, from the moment she could speak, she...

Chapter 164 Is it really just her luck?

Chapter 164 Is it really just her luck?

Guan Xia didn't wait for Xu Nian and the others until she went to bed in the early morning, so she had no choice but to send them her thoughts and future plans via message.

Fortunately, although Xu Nian was busy, he still found time to reply to a message. It was very short, only a few words, indicating that they would gather after the meeting. Guan Xia was relieved and looked forward to the next discovery wholeheartedly.

The next morning, it was a rare cloudy day, so everyone got up before dawn.

While having breakfast, they briefly assigned today's tasks. Pang Le and Lu Tingfeng were outside observing and providing support, while Guan Xia, Ji An and Zhong Xiaoyu lined up for a physical examination. Of course, only Ji An and Zhong Xiaoyu actually had the physical examination, and Guan Xia was just an escort.

After more than ten years of development, Kangjian Physical Examination Center has established its own reputation. Even on weekdays, the physical examination center is bustling with people. Guan Xia accompanied Ji An and Zhong Xiaoyu until the evening to complete all the projects.

Even though Zhong Xiaoyu had always been energetic, she felt a little languid after a busy day. As soon as she got back to the car, she started yelling, "I'm so hungry! I want some meat. It's still early, so let's go get hot pot. Beef hot pot."

Speaking of eating, Zhong Xiaoyu finally perked up and looked at everyone with shining eyes.

Facing her expectant eyes, Guan Xia was the first to give in. He smiled helplessly and said, "Okay, okay, let's eat hot pot, but we'll leave later."

As Guan Xia spoke, she took out some food from her bag and stuffed it into Zhong Xiaoyu's hand, her eyes fixed on the window, seemingly fixed on it.

Pang Le snatched a small bag of snacks from Zhong Xiaoyu and said as he tore the packaging. "It's late now, and everyone at the medical examination center is almost off work. It should be hard to find anything. I'm thinking that if it's really the core figure of a criminal organization who shows up at the medical examination center, it should be late at night. After all, isn't that how it's played out in the movies? Why don't we come back after dinner? Maybe we can find something then."

Guan Xia thought what he said made some sense and was about to speak when suddenly there was a rumbling sound of thunder outside. Then, the raindrops that had accumulated for a day finally fell down. At first it was just a drizzle, but soon it turned into a downpour, and even the view outside the car window became blurred.

Seeing this, Guan Xia knew that staying any longer would be fruitless, so she said, "Let's go, find a place to eat nearby, and then come back to take a look. If they haven't found it yet, we'll go back to the hotel."

Lu Tingfeng responded lazily and started the car.

The car had just started and had not yet left the parking lot when Guan Xia suddenly had an idea. She looked up and out the window and saw several cars coming towards her, just passing by Guan Xia and her friends' car.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, a face appeared in Guan Xia's sight, and like a magnet, it firmly attracted Guan Xia's attention.

The man had a very handsome face, different from Lu Tingfeng's delicate face. He had a more masculine handsomeness, with eye-catching blond hair, and an expression of nonchalant arrogance on his face. As if he noticed Guan Xia's gaze, he turned his head suddenly and looked over sharply. However, because Guan Xia and the others' car had window film, they couldn't see anything. However, the man still insisted on looking for a few seconds before retracting his gaze.

Similarly, Guan Xia followed the man's car until it was out of sight, then turned back.

In just a dozen seconds, Guan Xia could clearly hear the sound of her own heartbeat as if she had tinnitus. She knew that it was the intuition given by the system that was madly reminding her that this person was dangerous, very dangerous, more dangerous than any criminal she had seen before.

Guan Xia's expression was obviously abnormal. Even Lu Tingfeng, who was driving, noticed it through the rearview mirror and called her several times tentatively.

Guan Xia's intense heartbeat gradually subsided, and he came to his senses as if waking from a nightmare, meeting the worried and nervous gazes of several people.

"What's wrong? What did you find?" Pang Le rubbed Guan Xia's arms, which were covered with goose bumps.

Zhong Xiaoyu first turned around to take a quick look before looking at Guan Xia and asking, "Are those the cars that just passed by? Is there something wrong with the people inside? Or is there something wrong with everyone in those cars?"

Guan Xia took a deep breath and frantically rummaged through her sketchbook in her bag while trying to speak calmly, "It's a man with blond hair. I have a feeling there's something wrong with him, a serious problem. He gives me a very dangerous feeling."

Guan Xia finally found the sketchbook, quickly turned to a new page, and started drawing seriously.

Lu Tingfeng did not stop the car, but slowed down. Fortunately, it was raining heavily and it was the evening rush hour, so the cars on the road could not speed up, so their car was not conspicuous among them.

The others discussed the matter while lowering their voices and waiting for Guan Xia to finish painting.

Ten minutes later, Guan Xia put down her pen, handed the sketchbook to Ji An, and said, "Sister Ji, this person gives me a completely different feeling than Liu Xiang. I can't quite describe it, but he's definitely much more dangerous than Liu Xiang, so be careful when investigating him."

Pang Le and Zhong Xiaoyu leaned over to take a look and subconsciously frowned.

"It's a bit strange," Pang Le said. "I just turned around and took a look at this blond man. He looks quite young, probably in his twenties or thirties. How did such a young man become a core figure in a criminal organization? Is he ruthless and good at fighting? Or did he rely on his father's help?"

"It's a bit unexpected," Zhong Xiaoyu said, stroking his chin. "But no matter how he got to that core position, Guan Xia said there's something wrong with him, so there must be something wrong with him. We just need to investigate carefully."

The three of them were discussing seriously, but Ji An was rare in remaining silent.

Guan Xia looked up and found that Ji An was holding a sketchbook in one hand and checking something on his mobile phone with the other.

Guan Xia couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Ji, are you checking this blond man?"

Ji An hummed, "I just took a look and thought he looked familiar. I remember seeing his case somewhere before. Wait a minute, I'll ask my colleague."

After more than ten minutes, Ji An finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I found out. I remembered correctly. I did read his case, but he was the victim, and the case happened many years ago. Take a look, is it him?"

Ji An handed the phone over, Guan Xia took it, and looked at it carefully together with Pang Le and Zhong Xiaoyu.

On Ji An's phone was an enlarged photo of a face. The first thing Guan Xia saw was a head of messy green hair, piled messily on top of the head. Under the hair was a somewhat pointed face, with narrow eyes, a slightly raised chin, a slightly hooked nose, and thin lips. The facial features looked very ordinary when viewed separately, but when put together they were harmonious and looked quite handsome.

Guan Xia looked at him seriously, and Pang Le said hesitantly, "A bit similar, but also a bit different. Sister Ji, are you sure the person in the photo is the same person as the blond man?"

Ji An said confidently, "I'm sure you're not from Shangshuang City and don't know him, but as a local and a former criminal police officer, I have an impression of him. His case back then was famous, and his father was also quite famous. But I just thought about it, and I only remember that his father was in real estate, and also involved in supermarkets, hotels, amusement parks, and restaurants. I haven't heard that he also opened a medical examination center. I just checked online, and there's no connection between him and the Kangjian Medical Examination Center."

After Ji An finished speaking, Guan Xia also spoke, saying with equal certainty: "My intuition tells me that it's the same person, but after careful comparison, there are indeed some differences in appearance. Look at the temples and cheeks, they are obviously fuller now than before. Did they have plastic surgery?"

Lu Tingfeng was driving the car and would look back through the rearview mirror out of curiosity from time to time.

Ji An replied, "This man's name is Wu Yingze. He was the victim of a kidnapping. When he was rescued, he was badly beaten. His nose was broken, and there were scars on his face from cigarette burns. I guess it was from the plastic surgery he had around that time. I hadn't even graduated when he was kidnapped, and I heard about it when I came back from vacation."

Hearing the surname Wu, Guan Xia's heart moved and she asked, "Surname Wu, which Wu? Is it the Wu with a single person and the number five next to it?"

Ji An hummed again, "Yes, it's that Wu."

Pang Le also realized what was happening, and he exchanged a look with Guan Xia in bewilderment. "What a coincidence, his last name is Wu. So, his father's last name is also Wu. Wu isn't a very common last name, right? Could it really be a coincidence?"

Lu Tingfeng was a little confused, but Ji An and Zhong Xiaoyu vaguely understood a little and asked, "Are you suspecting that Wu Yingze's father has some connection with Mr. Wu Yang, the boss that Meng Lan mentioned earlier?"

Before Guan Xia could answer, Pang Le spoke up, "I do have some doubts. So, Sister Ji, do you know much about Wu Yingze's father?"

Ji An shook his head. "Although I'm from Shangshuang City, I've been away for several years. Plus, I studied at the Public Security University in another city, so I don't know much. But as far as I know, this Wu Yingze's father doesn't seem to be from Shangshuang City. He came to Shangshuang City to develop his business more than ten or twenty years ago. I heard that he was very wealthy and extremely wealthy. He invested heavily in Shangshuang City and established a firm foothold in the city in just a few years. It was his excessive wealth at that time that led to his son's kidnapping. Of course, this is all speculation."

Guan Xia couldn't help but start her brain working at high speed after hearing this.

Zhong Xiaoyu suddenly said, "Hotels and supermarkets can certainly be built on money, but in the real estate industry, perhaps I'm just stereotyping it, I feel like it's not just about money. Besides, didn't Guan Xia just have a hunch that there was something wrong with his son? If the son has problems, then the father can't be blamed either. I really doubt he was able to gain a foothold in Shangshuang City back then because of more than just money."

Guan Xia listened and although he was thinking, his mind was still a little confused because of the huge amount of information.

From time to time, her mind flashed through what Meng Lan had said, as well as the relevant clues she had found about the organization in the past few months, and the photos of Ning Xin and her daughter that she had seen at Ning Xin's home before. It was a little unbelievable that the criminal organization they had been tracking was actually related to Mr. Wu Yang, whom Meng Lan had always admired.

No, that's not right. Guan Xia just thought of this and suddenly came to her senses. There is no clear evidence to prove that the criminal organization is related to Wu Yang. At most, it is suspected that it is related to Wu Yingze's father. Whether there is a specific connection or not will be known after investigation.

Just as she had this thought, Guan Xia immediately remembered that Meng Lan had been secretly observed by the people of that organization. At the time, they didn't quite understand what was so special about Meng Lan that made that organization value her so much. They neither dragged her into it nor gave up on her. If that criminal organization was really related to Wu Yang, it would make sense.

Guan Xia figured out some problems in an instant, but more problems soon emerged. Wu Yang's special treatment of Meng Lan put Meng Lan in an embarrassing and dangerous situation. Meng Lan said that Wu Yang was also somewhat concerned about her. Does that mean that in Wu Yang's eyes, she also has value? So are there people from that organization secretly observing her?

And what about the kindergarten where they came from? There are so many outstanding people who have been sponsored by Wu Yang. Is there also a problem?

Guan Xia felt that the more he thought about it, the more confused his head became, and his mood became extremely complicated. He felt panic, anxiety, and more nervous.

Only now did she realize how important the system was to her. If it weren't for the system that had been bound to her since she traveled through time, she wouldn't have been able to live the stable and affluent life she has now, and she wouldn't even know if she could grow up safely.

She couldn't help but think horrifiedly, how Meng Lan found her biological parents so easily, and found her biological parents without telling her, was it really just her good luck?
