Chapter 42 Little Zhuge
The slender female doctor looked at Ji Feng calmly, her tone gentle and unhurried: "Are you calling me? Who are you?"
"Sheng Dongqian, what a nice name." Ji Feng smiled slightly, his tone steady, "Please come with us, there are some things that require your assistance in the team's investigation." He neatly put the ID back into his arms and pointed to the police car with a gesture of invitation.
Her brows remained still, but her tone was cold: "First of all, my name is not Sheng Dongqian, and I don't know this person. Secondly, I don't know you either, and I don't understand where you mean by 'the team'."
Before he finished speaking, Xin Xiao arrived at the scene with two police officers, and they quickly surrounded the "female doctor".
"Stop pretending, Sheng Dongqian." Ji Feng's tone darkened. "I'm Ji Feng from the Lan Valley Criminal Police Detachment. I'm investigating a case. Please cooperate with the investigation."
"A case?" She raised the corner of her mouth, revealing a slight sneer, her eyes revealing disdain. "Sorry, what you are talking about has nothing to do with me."
"Whether it matters or not is not up to you to decide." Ji Feng kept smiling till this point, his tone was calm but unquestionable.
"Excuse me, what crime have I committed? Why should I go to the criminal police team with you?" The "female doctor" was a little angry.
"I didn't say you committed a crime." Ji Feng's tone remained calm yet dignified, "But cooperating with the investigation is the duty of every citizen."
"So do you have any procedures? Is it an inquiry or an interrogation?"
"Ms. Sheng, I didn't expect you to be so professional and even understand all this." Ji Feng raised his eyebrows.
"Isn't that okay after watching too many crime dramas?" She met his gaze, a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Ji Feng nodded to Xin Xiao, and Xin Xiao immediately took out a "Notice of Inquiry" from his bag and showed it to Sheng Dongqian.
Bo Qianqian glanced at it and shrugged. "It says 'Sheng Dongqian' here, not me, so I refuse to go with you."
"Please show me your resident ID card."
"No, I'm at home."
"Let's go get it together."
"Sorry, I'm busy right now and can't go home."
"Then please tell me your name and ID number."
"If you are sure that I am suspected of committing a crime, please show me the Inquiry Notice that complies with legal procedures; if you are not sure, please move aside, otherwise I have the right to complain to you for harassment." Her tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and her expression was calm.
Ji Feng's eyes turned slightly cold as he repeated, "Please tell me your name and ID number."
Bo Qianqian sighed, her tone slightly helpless: "I can't remember my ID number. My name is Bo Qianqian."
"Home address?"
"Unit 3, Building 5, District 9, Qijiagou Community, Room 103."
Ji Feng turned to Xin Xiao and said, "Check if it's true, then call the number you just called."
Xin Xiao nodded in agreement, took out his phone and dialed a number. "Hello, Officer Liang. Could you please help me find the name of the resident of Unit 103, Building 3, District 9, Qijiagou Community, and send me the number you received the text message from?"
The person on the other end of the phone was Xiao Liang, the police officer in Qijiagou Community who received Sheng Dongqian's text message.
After a while, Xin Xiao turned to Ji Feng and said, "Yes, the name and address match." After that, he said to the phone, "Got it, thank you, Officer Liang." After hanging up the phone, he found another number in his phone and dialed it.
Just as the phone was put to his ear, before it rang twice, he took it down, frowned and said, "It's turned off."
Ji Feng nodded and said to the "female doctor": "Ms. Bo, you just said that it is not convenient for you to go home now. What do you need to take care of?"
The "female doctor" looked helpless and said, "Officer, do I have to report my personal affairs to you as well?"
"Please cooperate with the investigation." Ji Feng said unmoved.
"Go shopping."
"How long does it take you? We'll wait for you."
The "female doctor" looked at Ji Feng silently, with a helpless look on her face.
"Ms. Bo, can you come with us to the team now?" Ji Feng continued to put pressure.
"In that case, when we get to the team, could you please reissue an accurate 'Inquiry Notice'?" Bo Qianqian said with a tone that seemed to be unreasonable.
"Of course, no problem."
She nodded slightly, with a hint of teasing in her smile: "Okay, I'll go with you."
Inside the car, Ji Feng quietly sent a WeChat message to Jiang Bo: "The target has been captured and is on the way back to the team."
After a long moment, Jifeng's phone vibrated softly. Jiang Bo's WeChat reply was the first to pop up, featuring three exaggerated thumbs-up emojis, making it particularly eye-catching. "Congratulations! The female boss has racked her brains to evade investigation, employing every possible means, from feinting to the east to attack in the west, luring the enemy away, and concealing everything. She's truly a formidable opponent. But the devil is always stronger than the truth—she's used all her tricks, but was completely defeated by your tactics of threatening the enemy with a warning, luring them out of their lair, playing hard to get, and using your own tactics against them! A classic example of the Thirty-Six Stratagems of Stratagems. Amazing! Brilliant! Perfect!" The words were filled with sincere admiration.
"I didn't realize Captain Jiang's English was so good." Ji Feng said to Xin Xiao.
"Yes. I heard that he passed the eighth-level professional exam during his school years and is also very good at basketball."
"He's quite a hidden talent. I'd love to have a chance to play basketball with him."
Putting down his phone, Ji Feng glanced at Bo Qianqian who was sitting in the back through the rearview mirror. She looked indifferent and stared out the window, as if everything had nothing to do with her.
A police car, lights flashing, raced into the Criminal Investigation Division compound. Upon hearing the news, Jiang Bo hurried out to greet him and grabbed Ji Feng by the shoulders. "This trip to Qijiagou Community today was truly worthwhile. It's truly eye-opening. I have so much admiration for you!"
"Captain Jiang, if you praise me again, I'll be so proud, haha."
"I think you can be proud, and you should be proud! I just reported to Chief Deng, and he kept praising you as 'Little Zhuge'. You know, you took advantage of the situation to let the supporting police officers from the Public Security Detachment withdraw, and then turned around and completed the task. This time, you saved the face of everyone, including Chief Deng, haha." It was the first time that Ji Feng saw Jiang Bo so excited and excited.
"Whether she is a female boss or not still needs to be confirmed. Maybe she just did it unintentionally." Ji Feng opened his mouth and swallowed the words back. He didn't want to pour cold water on others.
In stark contrast, Bo Qianqian calmly followed Jifeng out of the car and into the interrogation room.
Ji Feng arranged for Xin Xiao to apply for a "Notice of Inquiry" with the name "Bo Qianqian" as soon as possible, and he sat down opposite Bo Qianqian.
Under the glaring fluorescent light, Ji Feng finally saw Bo Qianqian's face clearly. She sat calmly in her chair, slightly sideways. Her nose was straight, her chin slightly tilted. Her thin, sharp lips contrasted with her delicate, lightly powdered cheeks, making her features appear more three-dimensional and distinct. The lines were clear, revealing a competence and shrewdness that should not be underestimated. Her mature, resolute eyes exuded confidence, even hinting at the vicissitudes of life.
"It's true that appearance reflects the heart. This woman is not simple." Ji Feng thought to himself.
"Ms. Bo, first of all, I need to make it clear to you that we've invited you here today to inquire about a case. As per your request, we are in the process of completing the required 'Inquiry Notice', which will be delivered shortly. Please be aware of this."
"Okay. To save time, I can answer your question now without waiting for the Inquiry Notice to arrive."
"Thank you for your cooperation." Ji Feng paused and asked, "First question: What were you doing at the hospital today? Why did you take an ambulance?"
"I used to be a doctor." She said in a steady tone, "Today my neighbor Aunt Zhou was not feeling well, so I called 120 for her and accompanied her to the hospital to assist in the rescue. It was a case of neighborly mutual assistance." She raised her eyebrows slightly and looked directly at Ji Feng, as if asking: Is there a problem with this?
"After the ambulance arrived at the hospital, why didn't you participate in the rescue and instead wanted to leave directly?"
"Although I used to be a doctor, I am not an employee of this hospital. Do you think an outsider can participate in rescue in a regular tertiary hospital? Will the hospital allow it? I have fulfilled my obligations and escorted the patient to the hospital. If I don't leave now, do I have to stay for 'further training'?" She answered decisively, with a hint of sarcasm in her tone.
Ji Feng was choked by the string of rhetorical questions, unable to speak for a long time. He realized that his questions were indeed quite stupid. He pushed a pen and paper towards Bo Qianqian and said, "Please write down the address of our neighbor, Aunt Zhou."
"Across from me, 101." The paper and pen in front of her seemed to not exist in her eyes.
Xin Xiao, who had just completed the "Inquiry Notice", noticed Ji Feng's embarrassment and interrupted, "The "Inquiry Notice" has been completed as you requested. Please take a look." As he said that, he handed the "Inquiry Notice" to Bo Qianqian.
Bo Qianqian glanced at it casually and said, "No problem, go ahead."
Ji Feng calmed himself down and continued, "Did you go to the provincial capital to attend the Thuja arborvitae exhibition half a month ago?"
"No."
“Do you own a large warehouse of Thuja?”
"Officer, I don't even know what a thuja tree is, let alone a thuja warehouse."
"Please tell me your mobile number."
"16187539384"
Ji Feng winked at Xin Xiao, who understood, wrote down the phone number and walked out.
“How many phone numbers do you have?”
"one."
"Are you sure? We can use your ID number to find all the mobile phone numbers under your name at the telecommunications company."
"Just one."
"Have you ever rented an Audi before?"
"No." When he said this, Ji Feng seemed to remember something.
"Please wait a moment, I'll be out for a while." After saying that, Ji Feng pushed the door open and left, leaving Bo Qianqian alone in the interrogation room.
As he left the house, he nearly ran into Xin Xiao, who had just returned from checking the phone. He stopped Xin Xiao as he was about to push the door open, pulled him to the corner of the office, and said in a low voice, "Immediately contact the taxi company and Yong Xiangdong and ask them if they can come over right away to identify the rental customer and Chen Zhou's girlfriend. She won't be staying long, so hurry. Also, if you really can't make it, ask the Legal Affairs Department if they can send Bo Xixi's photo to the taxi company and Xiangdong for identification."
"Okay, I'll contact her right away. I just checked and there's nothing wrong with her phone number." Xin Xiao said.
"Okay, I got it." He patted Xin Xiao and returned to the interrogation room.
