Chapter 80 Should she say it's worthy of being a world fused with criminal investigation literature? ...

Although the two sudden events were both very tricky and made their scalps tingle just thinking about them, Guan Xia and Pang Le could do nothing but wait for news, so after discussing for a while in the car, they finally went back to their respective homes.

The trip to Fu'an City was not long, but Guan Xia felt like he had been away for a long time. Because he still had an injury on his knee, he stopped exercising and slept for two days before he felt recovered. He hadn't stayed up late for more than two years since the comic was finished, and suddenly he stayed up like this for a few days, which was really a bit too much.

She wasn't as nervous anymore, but whenever Guan Xia had some free time, watching TV series or reading novels, she couldn't help but think of the young woman she saw at the airport that day. Plus, there had been no news since Ji An left, so Guan Xia felt a little uneasy no matter what she did.

Pang Le was obviously the same. Even though he had returned to his normal routine and went to the gym every day, he would call Guan Xia from time to time. No matter how casually they chatted, he couldn't help but turn the topic to these two things.

Fortunately, news came from Xu Nian soon, but it was different from what Guan Xia had imagined.

"No case has occurred?" Guan Xia asked in surprise after Xu Nian told her the news he had found out in the past few days.

Xu Nian said on the phone, "Yes, I asked Director Ren. Just to be safe, Director Ren also asked the Deputy Director of Criminal Investigation at the Municipal Bureau. In the month before that woman left, there hadn't been any quick and decisive murders in Yongquan City. It's very likely this wasn't the murderer's first time. We also briefly checked the woman's identity. Her name is Yao Qingyan, a 33-year-old from Yongquan City. She runs a small bar on Taoli Road. Due to her work, her social connections are relatively complex, but she has no criminal record and her bank statements are normal. However, we did find something unusual."

Guan Xia was about to ask further questions when Xu Nian continued, "Yao Qingyan's father, stepmother, and stepsister all died in a car accident eight years ago. The cause of the accident was the driver running a red light. All three died despite medical treatment. The vehicle was found three days after the accident, but the driver was already dead. From the traces and suicide note found at the scene, it seems the driver committed suicide. However, a second autopsy by the forensic doctor found some suspicious marks on the driver's body, leading to a preliminary conclusion that the driver was murdered."

This reversal was somewhat surprising, and Guan Xia suddenly thought of something. He hesitated and said, "Could it be that all the members of that organization were recruited in this way?"

The case of Lu Manqing being silenced was escalated. Guan Xia did not know the specific information, but just through Feng Xingping, Zhang Weiyan, and the newly appeared Yao Qingyan, it can be inferred that this situation cannot be an isolated case in that organization, and Lu Manqing must have a similar case.

Recalling the general circumstances of the case involving Feng Xingping and Zhang Weiyan, Guan Xia tried to speculate, "The three people who died in the car accident were Yao Qingyan's father, stepmother, and stepsister. Did all three of them have a grudge against Yao Qingyan? What about Yao Qingyan's mother? Is she still alive? Was her divorce from her father a normal one? And the driver whose death was disguised as suicide, was he silenced? Has this case finally been solved?"

Although she asked this, Guan Xia already had the answer in her heart.

As expected, Xu Nian said, "The case remains unsolved to this day. As for Yao Qingyan's mother, she died when Yao Qingyan was ten years old in a car accident. Yao Qingyan's father was driving the car at the time. They were arguing when the accident happened. He was speeding and hit a streetlight, causing the car to overturn. When the car caught fire, Yao Qingyan's father escaped alone and did not rescue her mother. Later, a passerby tried to save her, but it was too late. Yao Qingyan's mother was burned to death in the car."

Guan Xia was speechless for a long time after listening to this. After a moment, she said, "Yao Qingyan's mother died in such a tragic way. Her father is the culprit. Not only did he stand by and watch his wife die, but Yao Qingyan is right to hate him. But what about her stepmother and stepsister? Were they implicated by her father, or are they also related to Yao Qingyan's mother's death?"

Xu Nian didn't give a direct answer, but instead shared another piece of news. "According to subsequent testing by the technical team, Yao Qingyan's father and her stepsister are biologically related. They are father and daughter. This means that Yao Qingyan's stepsister is actually her half-sister."

Guan Xia was amazed. "No wonder three people died together. Oh, and since there are no suspected cases related to Yao Qingyan in Yongquan City, what about her destination city? The police should be keeping an eye on her. There's been no news for a few days, so it seems she didn't go there to kill anyone."

Xu Nian said: "According to colleagues in Yuntian City, they began to monitor Yao Qingyan after she landed, but they really didn't find anything suspicious. Apart from catching her in an act of adultery at the hotel on her first day, she spent the rest of her time shopping at the mall."

"Caught in adultery?" Guan Xia had a strange expression on her face. She remembered how Yao Qingyan hurriedly walked at the airport that day. At that time, she thought she was in a hurry to kill someone. But now it seems that she was in such a hurry because she wanted to catch her boyfriend cheating.

Xu Nian said: "In order to verify, colleagues in Yuntian City even checked the man's identity information. The two are indeed in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, but they haven't been together for long, less than half a year."

Hearing this time, and recalling Yao Qingyan's perfect figure, Guan Xia couldn't help but be shocked. This man was not only a scumbag, but also didn't know how to appreciate beauty. Yao Qingyan was so beautiful, but he still cheated.

After a brief diversion, Guan Xia immediately returned all her energy to Yao Qingyan. After pondering for a while, Guan Xia said, "Although there's nothing suspicious about Yao Qingyan based on the clues we have so far, this unsolved case involving her always reminds me of Feng Xingping and the silenced Lu Manqing. Didn't you say earlier that the case has escalated and the provincial department has set up a special task force? Does the appearance of Yao Qingyan count as a relevant new clue?"

Xu Nian said, "The provincial department has learned of the news. I don't know if they've taken any specific action, but judging from Director Ren's hint, Yao Qingyan should have been included in the investigation scope of the special task force."

Guan Xia was relieved then. She herself didn't dare to provoke such a huge monster, but as long as it wasn't eradicated, people would be worried. Not to mention that a suspected member was found in the city where she lived. Fortunately, she was not in the same district as him, otherwise she would really have to consider selling the house and finding a new place to live.

Thinking of this, Guan Xia suddenly felt a little familiar. She was stunned for a few seconds before she reacted. It seemed that not long ago, she was still sighing that it was fortunate that she was not in the same city as the suspected headquarters of the organization. Now she was not in the same district as the suspected members. It turned out that in such a short period of time, her level of acceptance had increased a little?

After thinking about it for a while, Guan Xia began to analyze whether her system could be of any use to the unsolved case related to Yao Qingyan. After thinking for only a few seconds, Guan Xia gave up. The case was 8 years ago. At that time, Guan Xia was still in high school in her hometown of Quming City. She had never been to Yongquan City, let alone find any clues.

After confirming that Yao Qingyan was not going to kill anyone and that she had been targeted by the task force, Guan Xia completely forgot about it and only cared about Ji An's safety, whether the progress on her side was going smoothly, and when it would be over.

Several days have passed since the last time the halo was recharged. According to Guan Xia's plan, the next case will almost start the investigation before the backlog is restarted.

Guan Xia wanted to ask about Ji An's situation, but was afraid of distracting her. After hesitating for a long time, she finally put down her phone.

After trying hard to wait patiently, Guan Xia received another call from Xu Nian. This time it was because of the team building of their second squadron. Qi Bai couldn't wait any longer and was howling in the group every day. They had no choice but to hurry up and make a decision.

Xu Nian also explained to Guan Xia, "We originally planned to do team building as soon as we got back, and the location was already set, but because of some changes in the work of our Second Squadron, Director Ren held meetings for us for several days, and we only made time these two days."

"Job change?" Guan Xia was a little surprised, but also a little curious. "Are you going to get a promotion?"

Xu Nian smiled and said, "It has something to do with you. Since it hasn't been finalized yet, it's not convenient to talk about it now. But according to the Directorate, there will be a result by tomorrow at the latest, so let's talk about it when we meet tomorrow."

Guan Xia knew that Xu Nian was not the kind of person who liked to keep people in suspense. If he said it was not convenient to say, then he really couldn't say it. Guan Xia didn't ask any further questions and just smiled and said okay.

After hanging up the phone, I turned around and talked to Pang Le about the team building, and time quickly came to the next day.

This time Pang Le did not drive. He and Guan Xia took Xu Nian's car. When they arrived at the destination, everyone from the Second Squadron had already arrived.

The team building location is in a villa area near Cuiping Mountains, which is a place specifically for leisure and vacation. The villas are not far from each other, but because of the barrier of the courtyard wall, you can't see what's going on inside the villa. Coupled with the green mountains in the distance and the fresh air, even if people are still a little anxious, they feel a lot more relaxed when sitting on the chairs in the yard.

Although Qi Bai was still in a plaster cast and needed crutches to walk, it did not dampen his enthusiasm. When Guan Xia and Pang Le walked into the yard, the barbecue grill had already been set up. He was standing on one leg and happily fiddling with the charcoal fire to keep it in a suitable state for barbecue.

With his white teeth bared, Qi Bai greeted the two of them happily and then continued to work.

Guan Xia took a look and was about to sit next to Wang Yu to help, but Wang Yu, who was quick-witted and quick-handed, stuffed an orange into her mouth, pushed her into a chair and said, "You're our great contributor. Today's team building is mainly to thank you. How can we ask you to do any work? Just sit aside and rest. Chatting with us will be your help."

Guan Xia felt embarrassed for not working and wanted to struggle, but just as her hand was about to touch the skewers, she heard Wang Yu yell, "Captain Xu, I can't persuade Guan Xia. Please help me persuade her. She insists on helping us with the work."

Guan Xia paused holding the stick, turned around, and saw Xu Nian walking over with a somewhat helpless look. He looked at Wang Yu and said, "If you can't persuade him, then how can I?"

Having said that, Xu Nian still advised: "Wang Yu is right. This team building is mainly to thank you. We have divided the work before coming. The arrangement for you is to sit down and rest."

Guan Xia was about to speak when Xu Nian paused and said, "But if you are really bored, I can show you something."

Guan Xia's curiosity was immediately piqued. "What is it?"

Xu Nian said, "Wait a few minutes," and turned to leave. When he came back, he was holding a file bag in his hand.

Xu Nian handed the file bag to Guan Xia, pulled up a chair and sat down beside him. While skewering the meat skillfully, he said, "Ji An called me a few days ago and told me this. She said she might not be able to come back anytime soon and that the others were tied up, so she had to ask me for help."

Listening to Xu Nian's words, Guan Xia already had a premonition in his heart. He opened the file bag and took a look. Sure enough, it contained some basic information of the case.

Xu Nian said, "Don't worry, these case materials are not confidential. We have also found them based on your life trajectory over the years. Take a look and see if you can remember anything."

Guan Xia flipped through it briefly and suddenly remembered what Xu Nian had said yesterday afternoon. She asked, "Oh, right, you said yesterday that there were changes to your Second Squadron's work and that the results would be announced today. How is it going? Are the results out yet?"

Just as Xu Nian was about to speak, Wang Yu couldn't wait to say, "Come down, come down. From now on, we are comrades-in-arms. We will be there whenever you need us."

Guan Xia was a little confused when she heard this. "What do you mean?"

Xu Nian explained, "This is an adjustment Director Ren has made to our Second Squadron based on your unique situation. The Municipal Bureau has also agreed. No matter where you find the relevant clues to the case, as long as there is an investigative direction, we will cooperate with the investigation. If it is outside of Yongquan City, we will coordinate with the local police to ensure that the case is not affected by other factors."

Guan Xia was shocked when she heard this. "What? Is this even possible?"

Guan Xia was still a bit stunned, stunned. She knew Director Ren, as Xu Nian had mentioned, trusted her, but she had never imagined he'd trust her to this extent, directly asking Xu Nian's Second Squadron to cooperate with her in solving the case. Should she say it was worthy of being part of a world where criminal investigation and literature merged? Their actions were truly unconventional, even incredibly bold. This boldness was simply breathtaking.
