Ying Ziyu still lived in her old house. After Chen Xi left, she was all alone there, and Wei Zhao truly felt some sympathy for her. He did not know how she had been getting by since Chen Xi's departure during this time, yet Ying Ziyu had stubbornly never called Wei Zhao to complain.
After cooking her a meal, Wei Zhao ate with her and then took his leave, encouraging her to study hard.

Qiu Lingshan brought Little Innocence and the hypnotist back to the Mystery Investigation Bureau. Feng Tianlong had not expected Qiu Lingshan to be so formidable—on her very first field assignment, she had won a great victory and brought the criminal suspects back in custody!
What was more, judging by the confessions of the two, many major and important cases had involved them. Qiu Lingshan could be said to have earned great merit!
"Shanshan, you've done well!" Feng Tianlong looked at the report Qiu Lingshan had submitted and smiled broadly. "I heard that back when you were at the police bureau, you cracked several major and important cases in succession. Now it seems transferring you to the Mystery Investigation Bureau was indeed a wise decision. Even I was a bit troubled, unsure how to make a move, but the moment you took action, the suspects were brought to justice! And the hidden Tang family has actually submitted to our Mystery Investigation Bureau—that was simply unimaginable before. Since when could our Mystery Investigation Bureau ever command the hidden families?"
"Director Feng... I..." Qiu Lingshan blushed at the praise. After a moment's hesitation, she still told the truth. "Actually, it's all thanks to Wei Zhao. If not for Wei Zhao, I couldn't have captured these two so smoothly, and the hidden Tang family wouldn't have come over to our side so easily either."
"Oh? Wei Zhao?" Feng Tianlong was slightly startled, then nodded. He knew something of the relationship between Qiu Lingshan and Wei Zhao, but he did not want to interfere. His daughter was not Wei Zhao's official girlfriend either; Gu Mengyao and Tang Zhi had not interfered, so what business did he have to? So he nodded with a smile. "Wei Zhao counts as an outside member of our Mystery Investigation Bureau. He came up through our ranks, so having his help is part of our Bureau's strength."
"Yes, and Wei Zhao also said that he will bring the other hidden families to report to the Mystery Investigation Bureau one by one, to be placed under the Bureau's unified dispatch and management," Qiu Lingshan said.
"Very good, Shanshan. Although this is Wei Zhao's help, Wei Zhao is no outsider to you or me—he can be trusted absolutely. I can even see it already: our Mystery Investigation Bureau will rise to glory starting with us!" Feng Tianlong said joyfully and excitedly. "All right, Shanshan, this matter is concluded. According to our Bureau's rules, you may take some leave before returning to work. Starting today, you should get some rest!"
"All right!" Even without the leave, Qiu Lingshan would have asked for it herself, because a call had just come from home saying her sister had returned—which made her heart race with longing to be home.
