Chapter 599: Additional Investment!
Luo Gang chuckled softly, offering no further explanation. "You’ll see for yourself. By the way, since Niu Chuntian from the Municipal Bureau is involved, you should give them a heads-up when you go to pick up the suspect. Just tell them you’ve taken over Luo Wen’s case. It saves Niu Chuntian from being in an awkward position."
Indeed, Niu Chuntian couldn’t be blamed. The situation had spiraled out of his control, and there was nothing he could do about it. Although Zhang Haifeng didn’t fully grasp Luo Gang’s intentions, he knew the immediate priority was to secure the suspect. Still, he remained uneasy. "Are you sure it’s safe here?"
"It will be fine during the day," Luo Gang nodded slightly. He didn’t mention that night was another matter.
Zhang Haifeng caught the implication. "Even so, I’ll leave a few men to assist you. I’ll take the rest to the Municipal Bureau. The Boss has already entered the borders of Modu. He should arrive within an hour, so there’s no need to worry about the night." With Yan Aohan around, no enemy was too powerful to fear.
As soon as Zhang Haifeng finished speaking, Luo Gang’s pager buzzed. He glanced at the message and smiled. "You were right. The Boss has entered Modu. Wait a moment; I’ll reply to him."
"Alright." Zhang Haifeng nodded. Luo Gang said something to Zhu Yanyi and went to send the reply.
Zhang Haifeng tilted her head, looking at Zhu Yanyi. "Little Ani, it’s been years. You’ve grown up and become beautiful, but your ability to cause trouble has grown too."
Zhu Yanyi shot her a sidelong glance. "You’re wronging me. I just came to Modu for a summer camp. Who knew I’d meet an injured soldier? I saved her, and that’s how all this trouble started. I didn’t cause the trouble; I’m the one who feels wronged. My peaceful days are being disrupted. Who wants that?"
She felt stifled. Many of her plans were now thrown into chaos.
Zhang Haifeng paused. He had only heard rumors about the situation here and didn’t know the details. Yan Aohan had simply ordered him to bring people to protect Zhu Yanyi, so he had rushed over. Now, it seemed he needed to understand the specifics better.
Zhu Yanyi smiled mischievously at her. "Little Zhangzi, it’s been years. Have you become so timid? It’s just a small matter, yet you’re panicking like this."
"A small matter?" Zhang Haifeng glared at her. "Just because you say it’s small doesn’t make it so. If it were trivial, would our Boss have rushed us here? Would he be leading the team himself? This is definitely not a small matter." Whenever Yan Aohan handled something, it was never insignificant.
Zhu Yanyi secretly praised Zhang Haifeng’s sharpness. However, there were things she suspected but couldn’t reveal to him. For some reason, she felt it was better to speak directly to Yan Aohan about certain matters. So, she remained silent, leaving Zhang Haifeng confused.
Luo Gang returned. "Miss, Young Master Yan is on his way. Based on the timing, he should arrive here in about forty minutes. Should we change locations?"
Zhu Yanyi looked around and pointed to the area. "This open-air park is empty. It’s a workday, and the sun is blazing. Who would want to be out here? Let’s wait here. But Little Zhangzi, you should hurry and pick up the suspect. Get them out sooner rather than later, to avoid any accidents with those in custody."
