"We also checked the basement of Building 38 at the time, and there were indeed no signs of anyone living there, let alone any signs of outsiders entering!"

"Section Chief Li, I reported all of this in the conference room back then!"

Li Nan felt a little embarrassed. It seemed that it was indeed his fault. What was he thinking at the time that made him miss all these clues?

Liu Nan had no choice but to admit that it was indeed her fault. To ensure the accuracy of the information, Li Nan still asked with some unease, "Are you sure no one entered the basement of Building 38 at that time?"

"Yes, that's for sure. Although the surveillance cameras were broken at the time, the doors to the basement were intact. The basement was covered in a thick layer of dust, and there were absolutely no possible footprints on the dusty surface."

Ma Jie continued to explain, "At the time, we were all in agreement that, given the environment at the scene, it was impossible for a normal person to enter and exit the basement without leaving a trace, so we directly rejected this clue."

Hearing Ma Jie say this, Li Nan even suspected that it wasn't that she had missed these realities, but rather that Ma Jie had privately discussed with Yang Bairong and the others and felt that this clue was indeed useless, so they skipped it.

Even if this clue seems to have little value now, it doesn't matter whose fault it is.

However, the investigation seems to have reached a dead end once again.

Who exactly planted the bomb in Peng Yuanyuan's car? What was the purpose of this clumsy attempt to frame her?

The surveillance footage at Lakeside Moonlight Community is a big problem. Although the existing evidence shows that this incident has nothing to do with Gao Siming, Li Nan is still a little uneasy.

Remembering Xiong Sifu's repeated reminders to pay close attention to this person, and not to ignore the old leader's keen intuition, I should find a way to test Gao Siming.

If it can be confirmed that Gao Siming's current disability is fake, he would seem to be able to match the man in black in the video.

But how could Gao Siming be faking it?

The two can be considered best friends and brothers since childhood. Does he really not know whether he is pretending or not?

Li Nan sat alone in her office, her thoughts beginning to wander, slowly sinking into memories.

When did I meet Gao Siming?

Rewinding time, we go back to more than 20 years ago, to be precise, when I was in the second year of junior high school, which was around 4200 years ago.

In the past, because of her father's undercover identity, Li Nan always thought that her father, Li Fei, was an idle and corrupt criminal who walked a fine line between right and wrong.

Because of this feeling, although no students at school discussed the matter, Li Nan still felt deeply inferior because of her father's identity.

Li Nan's inferiority complex resulted in extreme introversion; she almost never interacted with other classmates.

Of course, this excludes Gao Siming, who is a year older than him. Li Nan enrolled in school relatively early; in fact, most of his classmates were a year older than him.

Gao Siming had a rather unique personality during junior high school. Sometimes he acted like an all-powerful older brother, always rushing to the front when something happened. Other times, he acted like a primary school student, sometimes even acting spoiled.

Li Nan had almost no other friends. Knowing Gao Siming was like having two good friends, which made Li Nan very happy.

It was precisely because of Gao Siming's personality that he saved Li Nan from being bullied on several occasions.

Yes, at that time, Li Nan was not only insecure and introverted, but his grades were also just average. How many students like him didn't suffer from bullying by school bullies during their school years?

Fortunately, Li Nan met Gao Siming!

In October of that year, a major event occurred in Li Nan's family, an event that would change his life.

That day, after school, Li Nan, as usual, carried her old schoolbag and walked home alone.

Li Nan's mother is a kind, chubby girl who works as a Chinese language teacher at Sakura High School, and her home is near the school.

As a child, Li Nan couldn't understand why her mother, a teacher, would marry a thug.

Moreover, in that era, why was Zhang Haixia, the mother, not influenced by the father and still able to become a high school Chinese teacher?

Li Nan had thought about this matter many times but couldn't figure it out until this day arrived.

As soon as I entered the residential area, I could see a lot of people standing in front of my house from afar. These people were wearing crisp black, blue, or green clothes.

These people had solemn expressions and didn't look like bad people, but the timid Li Nan was still terrified.

"What happened at home? Did Father get into trouble outside?"

With these thoughts in mind, Li Nan dared not go home and was considering whether to leave the neighborhood to hide.

A man in green happened to turn around, glanced at him, and said something to the man in blue next to him. At the same time, everyone at the door turned to look at him.

Li Nan was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground.

Before long, the crowd at the door came to him. The young man in green helped him up and asked softly, "Child, are you alright? Were you frightened?"

Li Nan's eyes were filled with tears, and she didn't know what to say.

The man in green patted the dust off Li Nan's clothes and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, we're not bad people, we're all your father's comrades!"

Later, Li Nan learned that the man in green was Xiong Yingjun, a clerk in the Department of Destiny and Fate.

Later, Li Nan was admitted to the Tanhua City Police Academy. After graduation, he joined the Anding Division and became Xiong Yingjun's last disciple.

And then...
