Chapter 781 — Better to Say It Quietly
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Looking back through all the people in Songshan City's police bureau throughout history, who had ever caught so many thieves at once? It was practically scooping up the whole nest!
Just as Qiu Lingshan was lost in her thoughts, a figure flew right before her eyes with a miserable "Awoo!" — and then, blood all over his backside, he passed out.
"Captain Song, isn't this the wanted criminal nicknamed Giant Deer, the big boss of the thief gang?" Liu Wangli immediately recognized that the person who had flown over was Giant Deer Bro — a wanted criminal of the police bureau, only he had hidden himself very well and the police had never been able to find him.
"So it really is Giant Deer?" Though Qiu Lingshan had heard from Wei Zhao that the thieves' ring's Big Boss would be coming too, actually having him caught felt altogether different.
"Yes!" Liu Wangli's admiration for his superior was truly boundless. This case-cracking efficiency was simply unmatched under heaven — even when Yang Huaijun had been captain, no case had ever been solved this fast! With Qiu Lingshan, it seemed any case that came along simply got solved!
In Liu Wangli's eyes, the thieves' ring case had looked like a real headache. Catching one or two thieves was easy enough, but completely smashing the whole ring was no simple matter — it wasn't something that could be done in a day or two.
Yet in just one day, Qiu Lingshan had actually led the entire criminal investigation unit out to make arrests! And the whole thieves' ring seemed to have lined up here waiting to be caught — from the Big Boss down to the rank and file, every last one of them was accounted for, not a single soul escaped!
"You keep watch here for now, I'm going over there!" Following the straight-line gap Giant Deer had opened up, Qiu Lingshan caught sight of Wei Zhao.
As Wei Zhao's little silly girl, having received his favor, she simply had to go thank him at the first opportunity. Qiu Lingshan knew very well that no matter how doted on she was, there was a limit — if she truly made Wei Zhao unhappy, she would have nothing at all!
Seeing the direction Qiu Lingshan was walking, Liu Wangli spotted Wei Zhao too, and could not help but start slightly!
Wei Zhao — what was he doing here?
Suddenly, Liu Wangli recalled that the first time the bank robbery case had been cracked, Wei Zhao had also appeared at the scene together with Qiu Lingshan. A vague guess began to form — could it be that Wei Zhao deserved some of the credit here?
The more he thought, the more likely it seemed! Otherwise, why would Wei Zhao happen to show up here of all places? And why would Qiu Lingshan be in such a hurry to see him?
Still, thinking of the rumors — that Wei Zhao was Qiu Lingshan's legendary boyfriend — even if Wei Zhao had a hand in helping, Liu Wangli found nothing improper about it! So what if a man helped his girlfriend crack a case?
It was only natural and right — and anyway, it was still a credit to Qiu Lingshan and her family; no one could snatch that away!
With that thought, Liu Wangli let it go. These matters were none of his concern anyway; he need only keep pace with Qiu Lingshan! Whether it was Qiu Lingshan's own ability that was strong or Wei Zhao's, it made no difference to him!
If Qiu Lingshan earned merit, he as her subordinate would benefit too. Stay close to Qiu Lingshan, and his future would be bright!
Wei Zhao saw Qiu Lingshan walking toward him as well, and smiled at her: "You didn't waste any time getting here?"
"Mm, thank you!" Qiu Lingshan glanced around — there were far too many people about, and she really could not bring herself to say something like "your little silly girl thanks you." It was too embarrassing! Better to wait for a moment when no one was around and whisper it quietly.
