Chapter 61 Missing
Lin's father drove Lin to the police station and straightened his collar before getting out of the car. "Remember to go home early for dinner after work."
Lin Yu nodded and replied with a smile, "Okay." After opening the car door, he saluted his father and said, "I promise to complete the task."
As soon as he entered the police station and submitted his appointment documents, Zhou Zongqi informed him to go to the task force's meeting room.
"Hello, Director Zhou." He greeted Zhou Zongqi respectfully, and then made a brief self-introduction to other colleagues in the department.
Zhou Zongqi patted his shoulder, looked him up and down for a moment, then nodded. "Please sit down first. The reason I'm notifying you to take up your post early is because we seized a new batch of drugs this morning. You've come across similar cases in South City, so I wanted to have you directly participate in the task force's investigation."
After Lin Yu found a seat, the colleague next to him handed him a document and said, "You can take a look at the suspect's information first to get a general understanding."
"Thank you." Lin Yu flipped through the information in his hand and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw the photo printed on the first page.
She was a very beautiful woman, with a pair of almond-shaped eyes that were both frivolous and charming, and even the simple prison uniform could not conceal her radiance.
"Zheng Yunqing, one of the masterminds of this drug trafficking case." Zhou Zongqi displayed her personal information. "The purity and type of drugs seized in this transaction are similar to the batch seized at the train station last time, except that this one has been processed into an over-the-counter medication."
When in Nancheng, Lin Yu and his team got to know some information about drug disguise through their contact with the trafficking gang.
The content of the meeting was about following the pharmaceutical processing plant line and trying to find out the distribution direction of other drugs.
"Qin Zhenyang, Lin Yu, you two should divide the work. One will be responsible for the interrogation, and the other will be responsible for recording." Zhou Zongqi pointed to the colleague next to Lin Yu, "Qin Zhenyang, I'll ask you to take care of Xiao Lin for the time being and help him adjust to the transition period."
"Okay." Qin Zhenyang smiled and extended his right hand towards Lin Yu. "Hello, I'm Qin Zhenyang, the real Zhen, the rippling Yang."
Lin Yu shook hands with her politely, "Lin Yu, Yu means encounter."
The two briefly exchanged their views on the case. Before arriving at the interrogation room, Qin Zhenyang took two deep breaths and said, "I hope we can come up with some useful clues."
Lin Yu thought she was just nervous, and glanced at Zheng Yunqing sitting inside through the one-way window, and replied to her, "Of course."
Qin Zhenyang shook his head helplessly upon hearing this. "The reason we call her a suspect is because we lack direct evidence and cannot prove that she was indeed involved in this drug deal. Furthermore, her lawyer has arrived and is processing her bail, so the interrogation time is very limited."
Lin Yu recalled the description in the information. Zheng Yunqing did not appear at the transaction site, but the surveillance camera captured her having contact with one of the buyers.
The drug test result was negative, indicating that she had not taken drugs, so the police had no right to detain her forcibly.
"And this isn't the most annoying thing." Qin Zhenyang's gaze fell on a man across from the interrogation room. She looked away with disdain and said to Lin Yu in a low voice, "The most annoying thing is her lawyer, known as the legal deadbeat, Wang Chuanhe."
Lin Yu followed her gaze and met the eyes of Wang Chuanhe, who was dressed in a suit.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Wang Chuanhe's appearance calmly.
He looked to be around forty years old and was dressed elegantly.
He had an ordinary appearance and wore gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. The incandescent light shone on them, leaving a blurry halo so that Lin Yu could not see his eyes clearly.
But the aura he gave people was like a vine in the dark, with a chilling coldness.
The interrogation officially began, but just as Qin Zhenyang had expected, Zheng Yunqing remained silent throughout the entire process, occasionally speaking a few words, with a very nonchalant attitude and tone.
Wang Chuanhe has always emphasized the limits of interrogation and human rights.
Lin Yu observed the situation inside the room through the surveillance camera and saw that Zheng Yunqing and Wang Chuanhe were calm and composed.
Zheng Yunqing, in particular, was not worried at all about her situation, and looked indifferent towards Qin Zhenyang.
"Officer, you have no direct evidence of my involvement in the drug trade, and no test report of my drug use. You arrested me just because I was in the club and had contact with the buyer. That's a bit far-fetched." She gathered her hair and raised an eyebrow at Qin Zhenyang, her tone adding a hint of impatience. "I will cooperate with you in the legal process, but that doesn't mean I'm guilty or have to plead guilty."
Lin Yu paused while recording, and could see through the screen the ease revealed in her words and actions.
"Officer Qin, my client has made it clear that she only happened to know the criminal involved in the drug deal. She approached and said hello, and she had no knowledge of the details." Wang Chuanhe glanced at his watch. "You have fifteen minutes."
Qin Zhenyang was not slow to notice the two people's perfect cooperation.
She secretly clenched her fists, and after a moment, she suppressed her disgust and asked a few businesslike questions about the relationship between Zheng Yunqing and the drug dealer.
The result was as she expected, and she didn't get any meaningful information.
After the interrogation was over, Wang Chuanhe and Zheng Yunqing completed the relevant procedures and left.
"It's a disgrace to the legal profession that someone like Wang Chuanhe, who has no moral bottom line, is a lawyer." Qin Zhenyang took a sip of water from the cup and asked Lin Yu, "Did you see anything through the surveillance camera?"
Lin Yu handed the confession record to Qin Zhenyang and shook his head. "Wang Chuanhe is very familiar with the interrogation process and methods. He has been guiding Zheng Yunqing's thinking, taking advantage of the fact that the police have no direct evidence and avoiding the main issue to eliminate her suspicion."
"Yes, so we must find evidence." Qin Zhenyang put down the cup and checked the surveillance records.
After watching it for a while, I found one detail very strange.
Wang Chuanhe hasn't defended anyone in several years, but observing his eye contact and verbal communication with Zheng Yunqing, one can sense a tacit understanding between them.
It seems that the relationship between these two people is more than just a simple customer relationship.
She reported this to Zhou Zongqi, "Director Zhou, I think it's necessary to investigate the relationship between Wang Chuanhe and Zheng Yunqing."
"Do you think there's something suspicious about Wang Chuanhe defending her?" Zhou Zongqi flipped through the interrogation records, but couldn't find any clues. He rubbed his brows and asked, "What do you think?"
Qin Zhenyang hesitated for a moment and said, "I heard that Wang Chuanhe no longer accepts private commissions. But Zheng Yunqing was arrested just over three hours ago, and he came to the police station to process bail. Even if they do have a good personal relationship, isn't it too fast for him to receive the news? Rather than coming to bail her out, I think it's more like a cover-up. They must be on the same page."
"Feng Yan, Wang Chuanhe hasn't accepted private commissions in recent years because most of the cases he's taken on involve Feng Yan." Zhou Zongqi lowered his eyelashes, retracting the sharpness in his gaze. "He should be the one who truly wants to bail out Zheng Yunqing."
Qin Zhenyang was very surprised when he heard Feng Yan's name, but after thinking about it for a moment, he felt it made sense.
Linbei's special operation is to combat drug abuse and corruption. Due to the high-level election, the anti-corruption operation was not vigorously investigated and was only carried out in secret.
"Then can we use this to pull out this big tiger?" Qin Zhenyang touched his chin, paced twice, and expressed his opinion. "Zheng Yunqing must have been involved in this transaction, and the relationship between her and Feng Yan is not ordinary. As long as we find solid evidence, can't we prove that this clue is related to Feng Yan?"
After hearing her words, Zhou Zongqi closed the file and said calmly, "Even if it can be proved that Zheng Yunqing and Feng Yan are related, as you said, the evidence is conclusive enough to form a connection." He shook the file in his hand and asked, "Where is the evidence?"
After going around in circles, he returned to the starting point. Qin Zhenyang was discouraged again. He took the information and laughed bitterly twice, "You are right."
Lin Yu listened quietly to their conversation, integrating it with the news he heard in South City in his mind, and understood the general situation of some special operations.
"Now that Feng Yan has intervened, it's pointless to pursue Zheng Yunqing relentlessly. It will only alert the enemy." Zhou Zongqi made a rational analysis and came to a conclusion. He said to Qin Zhenyang and Lin Yu, "First, check the pharmaceutical processing factory and notify the Food and Drug Administration to recall the batch of drug-laced weight-loss pills as soon as possible. That's all for today."
"yes."
After figuring out the mission, Lin Yu felt much more at ease. He was a little overwhelmed as he had just arrived. He felt that he could not help in any way and was as discouraged as Qin Zhenyang.
Zhou Zongqi noticed his mood, handed a glass of water to Lin Yu, and said with a smile, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, let's chat for a while."
After Lin Yu drank some water, his tense nerves relaxed a lot. He wanted to exchange a few words but felt it was unnecessary.
He simply addressed the doubts that had been lingering in his mind for a long time. "Since the drugs seized today are the same as the previous batch, does that mean they are also related to Tang Ze?"
The name Tang Ze has always been a thorn in Zhou Zongqi's heart, and Lin Yu and Qiao Yue used to avoid talking about this topic.
But now that the case is involved, he has to point it out.
Zhou Zongqi's calm demeanor slightly relaxed at the name. He raised his hand, pressed his brow, and nodded. "Yes, this drug funding chain has such a wide range of influence. Tang Ze must have the support of certain bureaucrats behind him."
"He's in the dark, but the bureaucrats have to be in the light, so we'll start with Feng Yan and carefully investigate step by step."
Lin Yu understood his intention, slowly loosened his knuckles that were pressing against the cup wall, and nodded, "For the current situation, this is the most effective way to do it."
"You've grown a lot. In the past, you either didn't dare mention Tang Ze in front of me for fear of my emotions, or you were eager to take action immediately." Zhou Zongqi smiled. "Now you're much calmer. Not bad, you're becoming more and more like a police officer."
Hearing the teacher say that he had grown up, Lin Yu was a little dazed. Someone had affirmed him in this way before.
At that time, Lin Yu was stuck in a quagmire, and it was Chen Wan who held his hand.
She said that she was her salvation in the chaos, but wasn't she also the drifting wood in his time of trouble?
......
After returning to the department, Lin Yu was notified that he could leave work just after he put away his work items.
He packed several copies of the information and planned to study them in detail when he got home.
Before he left, Qin Zhenyang remembered something and called out to him, "Lin Yu, wait a moment."
Hearing this, he paused, turned around, and said politely, "Team Leader Qin, is there anything else?"
"I've looked at your profile. You graduated from Minzu University, right?" Qin Zhenyang smiled, signaling him not to be so reserved. "Because of this case, as you know, drugs were mixed into certain diet pills, and the main target audience for these diet pills is college students. Minzu University invited us to give a public speech on drug control and legal education."
"You're a top graduate from Minzu University. It's perfect for you to come back to school and promote this. Is that okay?"
After hearing this, Lin Yu thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, how long will it take?"
After Qin Zhenyang got the answer, he smiled and said, "Tomorrow afternoon."
After saying goodbye to Lin Yu, he walked out of the department with his bag.
After graduation, he seldom returned to school due to his busy work. Now that he can go back to his alma mater due to work needs, Lin Yu naturally accepted it with pleasure.
After returning home, I belatedly remembered that Chen Wan was also studying at Minzu University. I had been struggling with what reason and identity to use to meet him again, but now it seemed that everything was solved.
When Mr. and Mrs. Lin saw their son coming back, they laughed so hard that they couldn't stop. They even did a hundred push-ups after returning home from a night run.
"Son, has your workload increased?" Lin's mother handed him a towel and motioned him to wipe the sweat off his face.
Lin Yu took the towel, wiped the sweat off his face, and planned to take a shower. When he heard his mother mention work, he smiled and said, "Nothing has changed at work."
"I thought you were under too much pressure and wanted to do some exercise to relieve it."
Lin Yu shook his head and went to the balcony to collect the laundry. He went into the bathroom with a smile on his face, leaving his parents with complicated expressions.
"Lao Lin, did you hear any sound?"
Father Lin frowned, and after listening carefully for a while, his frown deepened. "Yuzi seems to be humming a song."
Mother Lin nodded. "It's strange that he's in such a good mood just because he goes to work."
The two of them whispered a few words, and then, thinking of what happened at the lunch table, Lin's mother suddenly realized, "Could it be that my son has caught up with the girl?"
"So soon?" Lin's father was skeptical. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Lin Yu's unpleasant humming. "Go and tell him to stop singing."
"I'm happy, so I'll just hum a few words. Just bear with it, just bear with it."
After Lin Yu finished washing up, he wiped his hair, hummed a little tune and walked out, and saw that his parents' door was closed.
He returned to his room, opened the wardrobe, and thought about what to wear to meet Chen Wan tomorrow.
"I'd better wear formal attire for a legal education speech." He picked out a pure black two-piece suit and stood in the mirror for a long while.
"Will it make me look too old?" He hesitated and put it back, changing into a gray straight windbreaker. "Will this one be too formal?"
After trying for a long time, the wardrobe has become a mess, but I still can't get a satisfactory result.
He simply called Zhang Mo and asked for outside support.
"You're going to her school tomorrow, so you have to dress nicely and show off your handsomeness. This is the first time we've met since we separated, so we have to take it seriously."
Zhang Mo had a video chat with him and gave him careful guidance on how to match his clothes.
Lin Yu finally chose a navy blue woolen coat, paired with a white shirt and black pants, which made him look taller.
"Thank you, brother." He thanked Zhang Mo in a very sincere tone and with a very earnest attitude.
"It's no big deal. If you encounter this kind of situation next time, feel free to contact me." Zhang Mo nodded with satisfaction. "I'll be waiting for your good news tomorrow."
Lin Yu hung the clothes on the rack, weighed the options again, and nodded, "Okay."
After finishing these things, his hair was dry. He left on a desk lamp and read the information he brought back.
But he couldn't concentrate, so he raised his hand to press his forehead and forced himself to look for a while. Then he realized that his efficiency was very low, so he gave up.
I picked up my phone to check the messages with Chen Wan. I almost sent her a message several times to tell her that I was going to school tomorrow.
But he lacked the courage because he didn't know if Chen Wan would still want to see him now.
Lin Yu recalled that time in July when he was willing to hide carefully behind the car window just to see her.
As the distance gets closer, my heart goes from being anxious to being settled.
There was only a dim light left in the room, like a small planet.
In the dark night, I feel warm and lonely.
Lin Yu leaned his back against the wall, trying to find some balance to control his depressed mood.
He clasped his hands together, unconsciously pinching the undulating joints.
Staring into the void in a daze, it seems that this is the only way to express the melancholy feeling.
The last time she felt so helpless was when she was drunk.
On that rainy night filled with the scent of jasmine, he was confused and didn't know how to deal with his feelings.
Now he still hesitates and retreats, but he is more afraid of regret.
The movie said that all unexpected encounters in the world are reunions after a long separation.
"I miss you so much." He looked at Chen Wan's photo and murmured softly, "I'm sorry, I miss you so much."
Thoughts: The next chapter will be a formal reunion, and this chapter will pull together the final plot line. The emotional line after the reunion will be faster. To be honest, I am very nervous. I feel that I can't write what the best reaction will be between the two. It seems that they have been separated for a long time, but they really think about each other all the time, but because they are both very gentle, they don't disturb each other.
Lin Yu is also trying to break his previous hesitation and dithering, and Chen Wan's heart has always been firm. I am not in a very good state today, so I will write here first, and write about the reunion formally tomorrow. I hope that it will not disappoint you. In fact, I care about it very much, so I feel pressured and don’t know if I can write it well.
Thank you everyone, thank you pillow, Youran, Mingmingyue, Liuhua, Yiyiyaya, Tang, Weiyang, and Tangtangzi.
Thank you everyone, you are my luck and my confidence, thank you for watching this work.

Sorry, due to personal reasons, I may have to save the draft before September 7th, and release the full text between the 7th and 10th.
