Chapter 26: From Internal Chaos to External Calamity

  Bang! Bang! Bang!

  "The clothes you bought have arrived, I've signed for them, come out and get them quickly."

  Huh? Has the clothes arrived?

  My sleepiness was gradually overcome by the temptation of beautiful clothes, "I'm getting up. Wait for me for five minutes."

  It's a beautiful dress I just bought online.

  Wang Yongfei dragged me to exercise, I had no choice but to agree, then went online and ordered that red and white snowflake sportswear suit I had been eyeing for a long time.

  Okay I admit it: I mainly agreed just to wear pretty clothes.

  The door opened a crack, and I brought in the clothes, then washed up, changed into them, combed my hair into a simple princess bun, applied light makeup, and after careful dressing, reopened the door to appear before Wang Yong.

  Wang Yong stared at me blankly and said: "This dress looks good on the online model, it also looks good when I hold it in my hand, but when you wear it..."

  "How is it?" I stared at him with my eyes, staring hard at him. If he dared to say it didn't look good, I would stare him to death!

  "It's so good-looking, haha. Online models are no match."

  "This is about right..."

  We didn't run far, just jogging around the public green space surrounding Lan Gong Guan, which is not far from the Provincial Forensic Center. During our run, many colleagues who were on their way to work greeted us. It was quite early in the morning, and there was still a thin layer of fog that hadn't dispersed in the greenery.

  Wang Yong said: "We'll go out later tomorrow."

  I exclaimed: "Hey, you finally want to join the cult? Welcome welcome, the cult is open-armed to you."

  "No," said Wang Yong, "a friend of mine, a foreigner, came here and continued his hometown's habit of running in the morning. Every day, the neighbors who got up early could see him running vigorously on the road. Not long after that, he died of lung cancer at a young age."

  I couldn't help but laugh, I've heard this joke before, but Wang Yong's rendition was especially hilarious and made me involuntarily curl up the corners of my mouth.

  Wang Yong elbowed me and whispered, "Nine o'clock direction, the elder's surname is Tang. I've been watching you for a long time. You're not here with ulterior motives, are you?"

  "Premeditation? What? You're talking about going for a run in the morning? But you dragged me along, and we decided on it several days ago. Do you think I premeditated this?"

  Deputy Director Tang's car was parked by the side of the road, he looked over from the window, when we ran near him, we waved and greeted politely before continuing to run further away, and when we turned back to look again, he still hadn't started the car to leave.

  "Damn it! Just now when Deputy Director Tang looked at you, you were smiling."

  "What do you mean? Can't I laugh yet? The joke was yours, wasn't this my plan? Besides, I didn't laugh so hard that I'd attract men, did I?"

  "I'd rather you laugh with a gentle, natural smile. A gentle, natural smile won't provoke men, little girl. You just smiled so... what adjective should I use? Ah, yes, 'warm and natural', it was very beautiful, really very beautiful..." Wang Yong muttered to himself.

  "Oh," I was flattered and my face felt slightly hot, fortunately my thick skin didn't show it, "Thank you. But this isn't good news for you, is it?"

  In the afternoon, Deputy Director Tang called me to his office. To be fair, I wore a listening device and headphones. Wang Yong was still a bit uneasy, so he followed me there.

  Tang Deputy Director was waiting in the office, there were no other people in the office. He saw Wang Yong and me walking in together, his face looked a bit strange, but he didn't ask Wang Yong to leave. He took out a mobile phone and put it on the table: "Little Qin, how can you do criminal investigation with poor cell phone signal? I helped you reapply for one, take it."

  Our mobile phones have designated brands and models. Within the specified range, if it's a cheaper model, we can apply to the logistics department for use; if it's an expensive model, we need to buy it ourselves.

  "I don't think so," I said. "Thanks, but no need. My phone is fine, it's just the mobile signal that's not good." Anyway, China Mobile makes so much money, they won't mind being a scapegoat for this.

  Tang Deputy Director's expression was slightly stiff.

  Wang Yong suddenly said: "Director gave it to you, just take it, I don't see anything inappropriate."

  I turned around and asked him: "You, what did you ask me to take?"

  "It's just work requirements, nothing unusual, and Deputy Director Tang didn't mean anything else, right, Deputy Tang?" Wang Yong said.

  "Yes, it's not that I'm criticizing you, Xiao Qin. As a criminal detective, having poor mobile phone signal is unacceptable. You must ensure that you can be contacted at any time within 24 hours. Look at Wang Yong, he has this awareness, you should learn from him!" Deputy Director Tang said.

  "Oh. Then..." I took out my phone, "Thank you, Director."

  "Alright, nothing else, you can go now." Deputy Director Tang said.

  I followed Wang Yong out and asked: "Why did you ask me to receive it? Don't you know that in this ambiguous relationship, receiving gifts is the most taboo?"

  Wang Yong obviously didn't know that "according to regulations, it's normal to apply for a new phone if the old one is broken. If another leader applied for you, would you refuse?"

  "Of course not!" He immediately took it over and sold the one in his hand, at least he could sell it for a few hundred yuan. A few hundred yuan is a lot of money for someone like me who is short of money.

  "You don't understand men's psychology. Men love challenges, so you can't intentionally keep a distance from Deputy Director Tang. This will only arouse his desire for challenge."

  "Ah, I see. You're afraid that Vice Director Tang will think I'm 'playing hard to get' and then he'll actually make a move on me, which means you'll lose the bet."

  "Ah, that's what I meant."

  "Hahaha," I laughed loudly, "As someone who will soon become your master, I'm kind enough to tell you that you're wrong. Get ready to be trampled under my feet, my servant Sabasa!"

  Then Director Tang called me to go for injury identification, based on Wang Yong's principle of "cannot refuse the challenge of male instinct", he helped me send a text message saying: "Chen Lao won't call me tomorrow, I can go tomorrow."

  Vice Director Tang was very happy and sent several short messages to entrust various matters, instructing me in detail.

  Wang Yong said: "Maybe he really treats you as his daughter. It's still possible for you to cancel the bet now."

  "King Yong, little friend, how old are you? So innocent and lovely! I heard that Tang's son went abroad and got divorced in less than two years. He must have set his sights on me as a daughter-in-law!"

  Wang Yong suddenly realized: "So that's how it is..."

  I'm speechless, the difference is obvious. If I wanted to be a daughter-in-law, I would have talked about my own son, not how many bad things my daughter-in-law has.

  ……

  I went to several injury assessments and dinner parties with Deputy Director Tang, but Deputy Director Tang didn't make any moves on me, no touching my legs or hands, nothing. For the first time in my life, I hoped someone would take advantage of me, so I could subdue my first servant, whose name I had already thought of - "Mysterious Executor" Wahahahaha.

  Finally tonight, Deputy Director Tang called me and asked me to go to the archive room on floor -1. He said he had a case of violent rape that was pending and wanted to hear my opinion.

  Wow! I won! Got "Mysterious Executor"!

  A leader, in the middle of the night, asks a female subordinate to meet alone in a place where no one would go, and the purpose is not clear? Deputy Director Tang has already lost his moral bottom line!

  I excitedly held the phone and kicked Wang Yong, who was sleeping soundly, awake with one foot. I intentionally spoke loudly to Wang Yong: "Deputy Director Tang, you said there's a rape case and asked for my opinion. Now, why are they calling me to go to the archive room on the negative first floor?"
