Chapter 5: A Pheasant Can Never Become a Phoenix



Class A wanted criminal Zhou Zifeng has been taken into the police car.

The police officer who had arrived at the scene saw Xia Zheng and Yang Zhishan coming and introduced them to them: "Captain Yang, Professor Xia, this is Ms. Xia Zhining, the resident of Room 203."

"And her brother, Comrade Ji Shuyun."

The moment Xia Zheng saw Xia Zhining, he froze in place.

"Xia Zhining? Why is it you?"

Xia Zheng was shocked and suddenly realized something: "Is the clue you mentioned about Zhou Zifeng true?"

"How is this possible?"

Xia Zheng's face turned pale: "How could it be such a coincidence!"

Xia Zhining was taking oral notes with the police when she caught a glimpse of Xia Zheng at the door. She was not surprised. She was even waiting for Xia Zheng to come!

Upon hearing this, the police officers in the room looked back and forth between the two of them.

Professor Xia actually knows the resident of Room 203?

Considering that both of them have the surname Xia, everyone's eyes were filled with speculation.

Captain Yang asked Xia Zheng, "Professor Xia, do you know this Xia Zhining?"

As a specially appointed professor of the police, Xia Zheng had never mentioned to any of his colleagues that he had a younger sister.

Xia Zheng nodded with a grim expression: "She and my younger sister were mistakenly taken away from each other since childhood. She has lived in my house for 22 years."

Everyone looked as if they had gotten something special.

Before Xia Zhining could say anything, Ji Shuyun, after confirming Xia Zhengdu's identity, rushed over to Xia Zheng and grabbed him by the collar: "Why are you trying to stop people from calling the police?"

Ji Shuyun's fists were bulging with veins, and he endured and restrained himself.

If discipline had not allowed it, he would have beaten Xia Zheng to a cripple on the spot.

"If I hadn't arrived in time, Zhi Ning would have been killed by Zhou Zifeng!"

Ji Shuyun's movements were too fast, and Xia Zheng was grabbed by him in an instant, without even having time to block.

Xia Zhining looked at Ji Shuyun's back as he vented his anger for her. Wow, her brother is so handsome, isn't he?

Captain Yang and the other police officers in the house were all very surprised. Professor Xia Zheng had won the top three places in the national martial arts competition!

How could this young police officer from the township police station capture Professor Xia so easily?

Captain Yang and other police officers quickly stepped forward to pull Ji Shuyun away.

Captain Yang quickly asked, "Comrade Ji, what exactly happened? How did Xia Zheng stifle Xia Zhining's right to call the police?"

Xia Zhining felt that the captain of the criminal investigation team had a sense of righteousness, and immediately took out her phone to complain: "Captain Yang, I have noticed that someone has been watching my Fang Qi these past few days."

"It wasn't until I went downstairs to take out the trash and saw his face that I realized he looked a lot like the wanted criminal Zhou Zifeng."

"I called the police immediately, but Xia Zheng received the news from the police department and immediately called to question me. He actually thought I was making it up to get his attention!"

Due to her previous work habits, Xia Zhining's phone had automatic call recording turned on, and she immediately played the recording of her call with Xia Zheng.

——"Xia Zhining, why have you become so unreasonable now?"

——"If I don't answer your call, you will make a false police report?"

——"If you lie about clues to a case again, don't blame me for being rude. You will also be detained for making a false report!"

Every sentence in the call recording was like a slap in the face, slapping Xia Zheng in the face.

Xia Zheng's face flushed immediately. As a doctor and professor of criminal investigation, this undoubtedly tore his face to pieces in public.

The other police officers present also changed their expressions when they looked at Professor Xia, whom they had always respected.

After listening to the recording, Yang Zhishan was so angry that his chest heaved up and down: "Professor Xia, how can you be so arbitrary?"

As an old senior, he criticized Xia Zheng mercilessly on the spot: "If it weren't for Comrade Ji coming to look after his sister, Zhou Zifeng would probably have committed another murder!"

"After six months of hard work tracking him, we're about to lose sight of this murderer again."

Xia Zheng's face had already turned red like liver: "Captain Yang, it's not arbitrary of me."

"But Xia Zhining is a liar. I don't know which of her words are true."

Yang Zhishan interrupted him: "Stop talking! Don't say any more."

"The truth is, the clues Xia Zhining provided are true."

"Comrade Xing Tuji was agile enough to capture Zhou Zifeng."

"The case we've been tracking for six months can finally be brought to a successful conclusion."

Yang Zhishan looked at Ji Shuyun with admiration in his eyes, "Comrade Ji, don't worry, you have made a great achievement this time, and you will definitely get a third-class individual award."

Seeing Yang Zhishan's admiration for Ji Shuyun, Xia Zheng clenched his fists.

"Your town police station can also receive collective honors."

He patted Ji Shuyun on the shoulder.

When the other police officers from Jiangcheng Headquarters heard the words "collective honor", their expressions became complicated.

If Professor Xia had handled Xia Zhining's alarm clues in a timely manner, it would have been their Jiangcheng General Administration that would have been collectively blamed.

Their Jiangcheng General Administration has been tracking Zhou Zifeng for a full six months!

As a result, the man was caught by the police from the township police station, and all the collective labor he had earned was lost. He was extremely depressed.

Everyone couldn't help but feel resentful towards Xia Zheng.

Xia Zhining couldn't help feeling happy when she heard her brother being praised.

She looked at Yang Zhishan eagerly: "Captain Yang, I saw on your wanted poster that there is a reward of 100,000 yuan for any clues provided by the public... Can I get it?"

Yang Zhishan chuckled when he heard this: "Of course, your police report is all there, and you also assisted in the arrest of the criminal."

"Your bonus will not be missing out. After going through the necessary procedures, it will be deposited into your account within a month."

Yang Zhishan and others continued to interrogate Zhou Zifeng overnight and left one after another.

Xia Zheng was the last one to leave Room 203. He glanced at Xia Zhining before leaving.

"You guys are lucky this time. A blind cat meets a dead mouse."

"There will never be such a lucky opportunity again."

Xia Zheng's gaze shifted to Ji Shuyun. "A-level wanted criminal? Ha, is this kind of luck-earned labor worth standing up straight for?"

"A poor pheasant is destined to be a pheasant from birth and will never become a phoenix."
