Chapter 360: Chapter 360 Return your things_1 Chapter 360: Chapter 360 Return your things_1 “It was sent by someone. I haven’t opened it yet.”
“Would you mind opening it to check?”
With a threatening squint in her autumnal eyes, Nan Fei said coolly, “Officer, are you so eager to make me a suspect?”
“It’s only for cooperation in the investigation, a duty every citizen should fulfill.” This girl was too intelligent, her reactions and mindset were far beyond those of her peers.
It made her overthink.
“Cough, cough…” Ying Jiuming coughed, trying to say something but ended up remaining silent.
“There must be a motive, right?”
Nan Fei’s words left Officer Liu with a trace of surprise. “I stayed in the county hospital for some time, and I had some contact with Sun Lu, she’s a very nice girl…”
She halted her sentence halfway, feeling the more she said, the less meaningful it was. She wholeheartedly did not want to, and could not admit if anything had happened to Sun Lu. If something really did happen, she of course hoped the culprit would be found.
It was just a second of pause for Nan Fei, who then straightforwardly handed over the box, “I haven’t opened it yet, so you can go ahead.” Regardless of the other party’s attitude, the police were always worthy of her respect.
“Thank you for your cooperation!”
Officer Liu efficiently unwrapped the package. As she glanced at what was inside, an uneasy look came over her typically stern face.
“Cough, cough… here’s your stuff back.”
Surprised, Ying Jiuming arched an eyebrow and glanced down just in time to see the exquisitely crafted medal that could only be described as extraordinarily beautiful, with ‘Bei Jiang’s Wife’ written on it.
Under the setting sun, the medal was gleaming with colors.
If it weren’t for the inappropriate timing and setting, Ying Jiuming would definitely burst out laughing.
Nan Fei also saw it. Her delicate fair face instantly blushed like an apple.
“Tha… thank you!” She hastily reached out to grab the box, fumbling to secure its lid before placing it hastily into her bicycle basket.
Officer Liu watched her blundering and couldn’t help but to laugh. This was what a teenager should look like! Active, youthful, full of energy, and emotionally expressive.
“Cough, cough…” Ying Jiuming struggled to suppress his smirk, putting on a serious face. “Student Nan Fei, please notify us immediately if you have any information.”
“Alright, no problem.” Nan Fei strives to keep herself from blushing, chastising Huo Beijiang in her mind countless times. “May I ask, is Sun Lu alright? Can you find her?”
Nan Fei still refused to believe something had happened to Sun Lu.
“It’s hard to say, but we’ll do our best.” Officer Liu looked much more relieved than before, probably because she had ruled out Nan Fei as a suspect.
“Don’t worry, we won’t miss any clues nor anyone who has motive and opportunity.”
Nan Fei sighed in relief; she shrugged and said in a playful tone: “Like you did with me?”
“Yes!” Officer Liu responded seriously.
Nan Fei nodded politely, bid Ying Jiuming farewell, and then pushed her bicycle towards her home. However, before she got ten steps away, the officer who had just left ran back hurriedly.
Running as he shouted, “Captain! We’ve found Jiang Minmin. She’s hiding at home, with the door locked from the inside and refusing to come out.”
Upon hearing this, Ying Jiuming cursed outright, “Incompetent! Hiding at home and still took ages to find?”
