Chapter 1546 This isn't about money (Part 8)



By the time they left the hospital, it was almost dawn. The captain called Bai Chi and asked him whether he wanted to go home to rest or come with them to Xie Youshu's house to investigate.

After all, it was Bai Chi who discovered and captured the person, so naturally, he couldn't be ignored at this point.

Bai Chi said without hesitation, "I'll go too. I won't go back to the station. I'll go right now."

"Okay, I'll send you the address."

After hanging up the phone, Bai Chi looked at Qiao Yunxiao apologetically: "Could you please give me a ride?"

Qiao Yunxiao then had his driver go directly to Xie Youshu's apartment building. Xie Youshu was, after all, the person he had been keeping an eye on recently, so he naturally knew everything about Xie Youshu's situation.

He then lowered the car seat and said, "You've been busy since last night; you should get some rest now."

Bai Chi chuckled: "Didn't you stay awake the whole time too?"

Qiao Yunxiao thought for a moment and then lay down as well: "Then I'll rest with you. The driver will call us when Captain Liu arrives."

Bai Chi did not refuse; he did need to rest, and Qiao Yunxiao would only rest with him once he was asleep.

Just as Bai Chi was drifting off to sleep, he felt his hand being pulled.

Qiao Yunxiao wasn't asleep?

Why are you sneaking around and touching me like that?

However, Bai Chi did not open his eyes; instead, he went straight to sleep.

He was indeed quite tired; he hadn't rested for almost 24 hours since yesterday morning.

When he was awakened by the aroma of meat buns, Xie Ming, the captain of the criminal investigation team, was just raising his hand to knock on the car door.

Qiao Yunxiao was on the other side, just opening the car door, carrying breakfast in her hand.

Bai Chi rolled down the car window and yawned: "Uncle Xie, so fast!"

Xie Ming used to be Bai's partner. Later, Bai's father died in the line of duty, and Xie Ming took care of Bai and his mother a lot.

Xie Ming was also his mentor, and after joining the criminal investigation team, he would always teach him a lot of his own experience.

"We just arrived too. You're pretty good, kid. You made two great contributions in one night. Our team is benefiting from your success."

Bai Chi smiled shyly: "I was just lucky to run into you."

Qiao Yunxiao stood outside the other car door, glared at Xie Ming, and then bent down to hand the food to Bai Chi.

"Achi, eat something first. You haven't eaten anything since last night."

Xie Ming nodded understandingly: "Right, right, I forgot. You eat first, and then come upstairs with me."

Bai Chi did not refuse. After thanking Qiao Yunxiao, he ate heartily and even fed Qiao Yunxiao two meat buns.

This is clearly not the taste of a roadside breakfast shop. Looking at the label on the packaging, it says it's from a five-star hotel three kilometers away, and it looks like it was delivered directly by the hotel staff.

He thought to himself, "They really are rich and powerful," and then he ate with even more relish.

Not wanting to keep Uncle Liu waiting, Bai Chi quickly ate his fill, explained the situation to Qiao Yunxiao, and then hurried off to find his teammates.

Qiao Yunxiao is not a public official, so it wouldn't be appropriate for him to go along.

Besides Xie Ming, Liu Qing also came. She probably found a place in the bureau to lie down for a while, and she's still wearing the clothes she wore to the bar last night.

She hadn't washed her face or removed her makeup; she was yawning and munching on a meat bun, and she still managed to greet Bai Chi.

Of course, Bai Chi is pretty much the same now, the only difference is that she's not wearing makeup, but she's still wearing her bartender uniform.

The two were startled when they saw each other, then pretended not to have noticed anything and followed Xie Ming upstairs as if nothing had happened.
