Chapter Fifteen: Baby Photos



Strange things happen every day, but today seems to be particularly strange. Xu Moran couldn't find Xiao Anhe's adult photo in the population management system.

The only picture in the population management system is of him when he was just born. He was chubby, with distinct features, and very cute.

Even though Xu Moran could be a bit oblivious at times, he wasn't so oblivious as to print out the photo and give it to Sun Xingchao, telling him that this was the photo of Xiao Anhe that he wanted.

If she really acted so recklessly, given Sun Xingchao's meticulousness in personnel management, she would probably be transferred out of the criminal investigation team.

In an attempt to preserve her identity as a criminal investigator, she stubbornly typed in Xiao Anhe's name again, and the result was the same as before.

Xu Moran stared at the computer screen, but a possibility came to mind: the Xiao family had held sway over B City for many years.

From a very, very long time ago, the police have had absolutely no way to deal with it. Otherwise, it wouldn't have grown to its current size, to the point that no matter how much effort the criminal investigation team leaders have put in, they haven't found any incriminating evidence, and it still stands strong.

Xu Moran felt that as long as she mentioned the special nature of the Xiao family at the crucial moment, Sun Xingchao wouldn't blame her for not being able to find Xiao Anhe's photo. Besides, Xu Moran felt there was no need to print out the photo that popped up on the computer screen, so she picked up her phone and took a picture of it.

She was still worried about the dog that had broken into her home, wondering if it was really a Tibetan Mastiff or some other fierce breed. She wanted to take leave as soon as possible to go home, take some photos, and headed towards Sun Xingchao's office next door.

Xu Moran guessed Sun Xingchao was meeting with a guest; he rarely kept his office door closed. She took a deep breath, raised her hand to knock, and called out, "Captain Sun..."

After she called out, she stood silently at the door and waited. In the blink of an eye, a minute passed; in the blink of an eye, two minutes passed; and in the blink of an eye, three minutes passed, but the door to Sun Xingchao's office remained tightly closed.

This is a bit illogical. Judging from Sun Xingchao's personality, although he is usually serious and his already serious face appears even more serious because he doesn't hold back his smiles, he is still very polite to people and things.

He wouldn't deliberately ignore Xu Moran's knocking.

No, there is indeed one possibility that might prevent him from answering Xu Moran's knocking: he is not in his office at all.

Xu Moran hesitated for a moment, then raised her hand again and reached towards the door. Unlike before when she knocked, she pushed the door open directly.

The moment Xu Moran decided to push the door open and go in, she had already made up her mind. In addition to writing down the fact that she could only find photos of Xiao Anhe as a baby and leaving him a message, she would also write a leave note for him on the sticky note on his desk.

Pushing open the door, Xu Moran strode in without a second's hesitation, but the moment she took that step, she regretted it.

Who says that Sun Xingchao's lack of response means he's not in his office? In fact, he is in his office. The reason he didn't answer her knocking is simply because he fell asleep at his desk.

You can imagine how tired he was last night.

The sound of Xu Moran pushing the door open woke him up. He opened his sleepy eyes and looked at Xu Moran. After a full three seconds, he finally asked Xu Moran, "Xiao Xu, have you found the photos yet?"

It seemed that it took him three seconds to recognize that the person who entered the office was Xu Moran.

Whether a person is dedicated or not doesn't need investigation; you can tell from their personal details. For example, Sun Xingchao hadn't slept all night and was woken up by Xu Moran. If it were an ordinary person, they would be grumpy from being woken up, and their mood would be terrible. They wouldn't have the mind to care about their work.

Sun Xingchao was different; he never forgot important things and immediately asked about Xu Moran's affairs.

Xu Moran was initially stunned at the doorway because the chapter 15: Baby Photo from "Picking Up an Older Brother as My Husband" that you are currently reading only has a small portion of it.
