Chapter 46 46 Besides my name, he only told you this...

After quickly browsing the news report, Guan Xia drew a picture of the man who jumped into the river in the video and the passerby who was talking to him and was suspected to be the murderer, trying to find some information on the Internet through the two faces. Unfortunately, the two people may not use social apps very often, and after searching for a long time, they found nothing.

It seemed that this was all she could do on her own. Guan Xia stared at her phone and hesitated for a while, then finally called Pang Le.

As soon as the call was connected, Guan Xia didn't beat around the bush and asked, "Pang Le, can you send me Lu Tingfeng's contact information?"

Pang Le was stunned for a moment, and his voice suddenly rose several degrees. "Who? Lu Tingfeng?"

Guan Xia hummed, and was about to explain when Pang Le asked again, "You want to find him, are you sure?"

Guan Xia said solemnly: "I'm sure."

Pang Le was silent for a few seconds, but didn't ask anything. He just said, "Okay, I'll send it to you now."

Guan Xia was a little surprised when the call was hung up. She thought that with Pang Le's temper, he would definitely get to the bottom of it.

Guan Xia breathed a sigh of relief as she didn't have to explain to Pang Le for the time being. After receiving the number she wanted, she considered what she wanted to say in her mind before dialing the number.

After ringing many times, the phone was finally connected.

A slightly muffled voice came, "Guan Xia?"

Guan Xia was not surprised that Lu Tingfeng knew her number, but she was puzzled by Lu Tingfeng's voice at this moment. Although they had only met once and had not said a few words from beginning to end, in her impression his voice was relatively clear, with a relaxed and rising tone. If the person on the other end of the phone had not revealed her identity right away, Guan Xia would have thought she had dialed the wrong number.

Suppressing the doubts that subconsciously emerged in her heart, Guan Xia said calmly: "It's me. Do you have time recently? Can we chat?"

Guan Xia had already thought of what to say next, but who would have thought that Lu Tingfeng would actually say, "I really want to have a good chat with you, but I'm sorry, Guan Xia, I have something urgent to do and need to leave Yongquan City. I'm on my way to the airport now. If you're willing, I can find someone else to talk to you."

Guan Xia's prepared speech, which he had been thinking about for a long time, suddenly got stuck at the tip of his tongue, and he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

Lu Tingfeng sounded very anxious. After waiting for two seconds without hearing Guan Xia's voice, he continued, "I know I don't have much credibility with you, but I still want to tell you that the person I found is definitely more reliable than me. At least you can meet him first, and then we can talk about it."

Although the development of the matter was somewhat beyond Guan Xia's expectations, it had already come to this point and she couldn't give up just at the beginning. Guan Xia could only agree, "Okay, but first you have to tell me, that person..."

Before Guan Xia could finish her question, Lu Tingfeng had already thought of it and answered first, "Like me, I used to be a police officer, a criminal police officer."

Guan Xia's heart was immediately relieved. "Okay, but please do it as soon as possible. I'm in a hurry."

Lu Tingfeng said, "Don't worry, I had already contacted her when I decided to leave Yongquan City. She's on her way here now. I guarantee you'll see her tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Guan Xia still felt a bit like she was still in a dream. After all, based on the brief contact last time, Lu Tingfeng gave her a feeling that he was quite extreme and acted without any taboos. God knows how much time she spent on deliberation and consideration from considering cooperation to making the decision. She even wanted to have a good negotiation, but in the end, all her preparations were in vain. It was really true that plans could not keep up with changes. No, it was not in vain either. Although she didn't know who he was going to contact on his behalf, the negotiation words she prepared could still be used.

After successfully starting the next plan, Guan Xia glanced at the time and was about to turn off the computer and go wash up, but a message suddenly popped up.

I reached out and clicked it, and saw a photo and a phone number sent by Lu Tingfeng.

The photo shows a young woman with a square face, sharp eyes, and a very majestic look. She has short hair that reaches her ears and looks expressionless as she looks straight ahead. She indeed looks much more reliable than Lu Tingfeng.

Guan Xia also felt relieved.

Guan Xia got up very early the next day. He first asked someone to change the door lock that had been pried open yesterday. Then he had breakfast and completed his morning run. After that, he read a book while waiting for a call.

She originally thought that she would wait for Xu Nian's call first to tell her the results of the surprise interrogation last night, but she didn't expect that the woman that Lu Tingfeng mentioned last night would come to her first.

It's only been one night, and this efficiency is too high. Guan Xia subconsciously glanced at the time and then picked up the phone. "Hello?"

The woman's calm voice came, "Hello, Guan Xia, my name is Ji An, I'm in Yongquan City right now. We can talk on the phone or in person, it's up to you."

Guan Xia thought about it and decided that she preferred observing the other person's expression in person to communicating verbally, so she said, "Let's just meet and talk. Where should we meet?"

The woman was very concise and to the point, "You decide."

Guan Xia realized something from the woman's attitude and felt even better. Zuo Si thought again and said, "Well, I'll think about it first and contact you later."

The woman said decisively, "Okay."

Guan Xia stared at the darkened phone interface and thought for two seconds, then stood up and walked into the study to find the two sketches he had drawn last night. After thinking it over again and again, he called Pang Le again.

Pang Le seemed to have been waiting for this call for a long time. He picked up the phone as soon as it rang. "Have you finally figured out how to put me off?"

Pang Le's words seemed a bit sharp, but her smiling tone showed that she was not angry.

Guan Xia couldn't help but smile and said, "Do you have time today? Accompany me to meet someone?"

Pang Le's tone suddenly became higher. "Meet someone? Who? Don't tell me it's Lu Tingfeng."

It sounded like she was going to beat him up if it was really Lu Tingfeng. Guan Xia quickly said, "No, no, he left Yongquan City. He's a friend of his, also a policeman."

Pang Le asked suspiciously, "It's only been three days since we last met, but it feels like two years. A lot of things happened that I didn't know about."

Guan Xia also felt that time had passed very quickly recently. She said, "Something did happen. I'll tell you later. Today's meeting is very important to me. Can you accompany me to meet the person first?"

Pang Le had no choice but to swallow his questions and agreed, "Okay, where are you meeting? I'll be there now."

Guan Xia decided to meet at a cafe near Pang Le's gym, informed Ji An first, and then sent a message to Pang Le.

The time Guan Xia agreed to meet was an hour later, so after hanging up the phone, she immediately changed her clothes and went out. Luckily, she got a taxi as soon as she went out and arrived at her destination smoothly.

She thought she had arrived quite early, but unexpectedly Ji An had arrived even earlier. He was sitting in a corner with few people around. He had ordered a cup of coffee and was drinking it slowly.

Pang Le also arrived and sat by the window, bored and playing with his phone. As soon as he saw Guan Xia, he stood up and greeted her, "You're here, where's the person you wanted to see?"

Guan Xia raised her chin towards Ji An and said, "It's over there."

Pang Le followed Guan Xia's gaze, his expression a little surprised. "Is this Lu Tingfeng's friend? How can he have such a cool friend? How could he be so worthy of such a friend?"

After fully expressing his dislike for Lu Tingfeng, Pang Le put his arm around Guan Xia's shoulders and walked towards Ji An. He extended his hand first and said, "Hello, my name is Pang Le, Guan Xia's best friend. What's your name?"

Ji An first glanced at Guan Xia, then stood up and shook hands with Pang Le, "Hello, my name is Ji An, Lu Tingfeng's friend."

When he heard Lu Tingfeng's name, Pang Le subconsciously curled his lips.

Ji An extended his hand to Guan Xia again, "Hello, Guan Xia, nice to meet you. I hope I didn't disappoint you."

This sounded a bit strange, and Pang Le frowned at Ji An.

Guan Xia first envied Ji An for a moment because he was a full head taller than her, then she shook his hand, "Hello, I'm Guan Xia."

The three of them greeted each other and sat down together. Pang Le naturally sat next to Guan Xia. Without Guan Xia saying anything, he had already ordered coffee according to her usual taste.

The waiter brought two cups of coffee and confirmed that there would be no further interruptions. Then Guan Xia looked at Ji An and said, "Before we officially communicate, I would like to ask, how much do you know about my affairs?"

Ji An's face, which had never smiled, became even more serious. He sat up straighter and said, "You may not believe it, but Lu Tingfeng didn't tell me anything. He only said that you were the only person he found who could help us."

Guan Xia really didn't believe it, so she pressed on, "Besides my name, is that all he told you?"

Ji An nodded seriously, "Yes, even your name, among all the people we know, I'm the only one who knows it."

Guan Xia was silent for a moment, then asked, "Do you know Xu Nian?"

Ji An shook his head. "I've heard of him, but I've never met him. He seems to be Lu Tingfeng's best friend, but he hasn't mentioned him much. When we get together, we just work straight away and rarely chat."

"Work?" Pang Le suddenly asked curiously, "What kind of work?"

Ji An glanced at Guan Xia and said hesitantly, "Things are a bit complicated, and I can't explain it clearly in a short time. If this communication goes smoothly, you will gradually know."

They just met, so it's normal for them to hide something.

Pang Le also felt that what he had said just now was a bit rash, so he immediately picked up the cup and continued to drink coffee quietly.

Ji An looked at Guan Xia and asked, "Anything else you want to ask?"

Of course there were, and even more and more doubts were piling up in her heart, but Guan Xia also knew that Ji An would not tell her until they reached a consensus, so she said, "Not for now."

Ji An turned the cup in his hand, his eyes fell on Guan Xia's, and he said sincerely: "Since you don't have it, then I will tell you what I think?"

Guan Xia nodded and put on an expression of listening attentively. Pang Le also realized that the really important part was about to come, and subconsciously straightened his back with an extremely serious expression.

Ji An slowed down his speech and spoke earnestly, word by word: "I don't know why Lu Tingfeng believed you and why he regarded you as his hope, but I have known him for so long, and I trust his judgment. So no matter what you do next, I will do my best to help you. As long as it is not a crime or harmful to society, I can even not ask. Of course, if you are willing to talk about it, I still want to hear it very much."

Guan Xia didn't expect Ji An to have such a personality. He was even more decisive than Pang Le. She was surprised for a moment before she looked at Ji An and said, "Can you really not ask?"

Ji An nodded seriously, "As long as it's not illegal or criminal and is not harmful to society."

Guan Xia couldn't help but ask, "You don't want to get anything from me?"

Ji An smiled for the first time this evening. "Compared to empty verbal promises, I believe more in the genuine help people give to each other when they get along with each other."

Guan Xia couldn't help but smile. She was really glad that Lu Tingfeng left suddenly last night. Although Ji An was his friend, he was obviously much more upright and sincere. If they had to cooperate, she would rather cooperate with such a person.

Since Ji An was so decisive, Guan Xia swallowed the prepared excuses and directly took out the two sketches she had drawn last night from her bag.

"Since you're so straightforward, I won't bother with the polite words," Guan Xia handed over two sketches. "I want to know the identities of these two people. Can you find them?"

After this period of contact with Xu Nian, Guan Xia now has a certain understanding of their case handling process. At least she knows that if they want to reopen an old case, they must have a new breakthrough in the original clues. If it was a case in Pingjiang District, she would have directly contacted Xu Nian, but now it has crossed districts. According to the system prompt last night, the case is still a bit complicated, so she feels embarrassed to trouble Xu Nian before she figures out the situation of those two people. It's a good opportunity to see Ji An's ability.

Faced with Guan Xia's somewhat abrupt request, Ji An did not ask anything. He took it, glanced at it twice, put it away carefully, and agreed directly, "Okay, give me two days, I'll contact you after I find out."
