"Really? Tanhua City has been peaceful for years. Apart from the Meiluo Academy series of cases, there doesn't seem to be anything else, right?"

"The Plum Blossom Academy Series of Cases?" This was the first time Gao Siming had heard this name. The An Ding Division actually used his poem as the title of the cases?

Gao Siming thoroughly enjoyed this supreme honor!

In the past, Li Nan might not have told Gao Siming about this, but after today's drowning incident, Li Nan had already entrusted her heart to Gao Siming, so telling him about it wouldn't be a big deal.

"Well, the incident at the school a few years ago, wasn't it related to your Honghu Society? The leaders of the Anti-Ding Division thought the name was good, so they used it as the name for this series of cases."

From this name, Gao Siming could actually guess a lot of things, but he couldn't ask too many questions. The Li Shazi in front of him wasn't really stupid; he was the newly appointed examiner of the An Ding Si Ding Ming Ke!

The fact that Li Nan used the fence to test him today shows that An Ding Si has been paying attention to him for more than just a day or two. Isn't the series of cases under the name of Mei Luo Academy just to catch him?

Gao Siming couldn't ask too many questions, and Li Nan didn't say much either, so the two tacitly avoided the topic.

Gao Siming joked, "I wrote the poem. When you solve the case, remember to treat me to a meal as a copyright fee!"

"Huh? Haha, okay, definitely, brother, thanks for your good wishes. We'll try our best to solve the case as soon as possible. When that happens, just let us know when you want to eat!"

After saying that, they downed their tea in one gulp and smiled at each other.

Gao Siming thought to himself, "If that day really comes, will you still treat me to dinner?"

Li Nan continued the previous topic, saying, "Aside from this series of cases, could it be that Peng Yuanyuan committed some other crimes that we are unaware of?"

"Li the Fool, use your brain. With the current technology of the An Ding Division, if Peng Yuanyuan really committed other crimes, wouldn't you have caught her without a single clue?"

"That's true! All violations must be investigated and all murder cases must be solved!"

Seeing that Li Nan was about to fall into the trap, Gao Siming said directly, "I won't even ask what your current case-solving rate is. Could it be that Peng Yuanyuan's shadow has always been involved in these cases that are getting you into trouble?"

Gao Siming tapped his fingers lightly on the tea table and said slowly, "For example, Zhang Qiqi not long ago, or even longer ago?"

"Even earlier?" Li Nan recalled that Peng Yuanyuan returned to China in 4220, while the 0609 lunchbox case occurred 22 years ago.

Judging solely from the timeline, Peng Yuanyuan certainly had ample opportunity to commit the crime. As seen in Zhang Qiqi's case, she harbors a deep-seated hatred for women like mistresses. Therefore…

Li Nan dared not think any further. There was still no trace of Woman A in the 0609 case; could it be…?

Seeing Li Nan deep in thought, Gao Siming felt the time was right, so he asked, "By the way, when you arrested Peng Yuanyuan twice, besides interrogating her, did you search her residence?"

Li Nan was shocked to hear this. No, they really didn't!

Peng Yuanyuan entered the Anding Division twice, and both times her innocence was proven within a day or two. They really didn't consider searching Peng Yuanyuan's residence.

Could there be any useful evidence left in her home?

Li Nan's surprised expression said it all. Gao Siming didn't press further and continued, "Actually, I was just saying it offhand. After all, Peng Yuanyuan and I were ex-boyfriends and girlfriends. My reasoning is too subjective, so just take it with a grain of salt!"

“Brother, you don’t need to say that. This is indeed something we overlooked. We all thought Peng Yuanyuan was framed, and we really didn’t think that much about it.”

"Actually, Peng Yuanyuan is a good person!"

Li Nan couldn't sit still any longer and quickly got up to say goodbye!

Gao Siming pleaded, "My sister's almost finished cooking, are you really willing to leave?"

Li Nan didn't want to leave either, but now that she's discovered this big problem, she's lost all appetite.

"Just eat in peace. I was just saying that casually. If you go back now, do you have any reason to search her room?"

"ah?"

That's right. Now everyone in the An Ding Division thinks Peng Yuanyuan was framed. If he suddenly proposes to search her house, Xiong Sifu will definitely curse him to death.

"Brother, what should we do?" Li Nan returned to his seat and poured himself a fresh cup of tea.

"Xiao Li, I've already said that all of this is just nonsense, so you don't have to believe it completely. Since it's just my guess, you can try to test it out using unofficial methods first!"

"How so?"

"That's easy! Aren't you a foodie? First, lure Peng Yuanyuan home, then find an excuse to go to her house for dinner, bringing Qin Wen along. The two of you can work together secretly, who knows what you might discover!"

"Great idea!" Li Nan is a true foodie. How wonderful it would be to be able to investigate a case and have a big meal at the same time!

"Brother Gao, can Peng Yuanyuan cook?"

"I didn't know before, but I don't know now. Didn't she hire Aunt Chen?"

"Yes, after the explosion at the Lovers' Restaurant last time, Peng Yuanyuan fired Aunt Chen."

"Oh, neither you nor Qin Wen know how to do it?"

"Brother, aren't you just asking a question you already know the answer to?" Li Nan's eyes darted around. "Brother, how about we ask you to come out of retirement?"
