Senior

“It’s not like there’s only one detective team in City A. How could I possibly have seen everyone?” Feng Jing still looked uninterested.

“Hey, have the two of you heard of Captain Feng from the detective team?” Lin Jia ignored Feng Jing’s effort to stop him and asked Bai Luo and Xia Jin.

“Of course, Captain Feng is only 28 years old, but he has solved many mysterious cases and made huge contributions. He is a legend in our detective team!” Bai Luo did not think too much about it. She only heard from Captain Chen that Feng Jing would be transferred to their branch for a period of time. She was in fact looking forward to meeting this legendary figure.

“You can’t be Captain Feng, can you?” Xia Jin looked at the refined man in front of him and asked in disbelief.

“I am not. He is!” Lin Jia smiled and looked at Feng Jing.

“Captain Feng, we’re from division two. You’re a senior, I’ve admired you for a long time!” Xia Jin was relieved when he saw Feng Jing behind Lin Jia. He was similar to the Captain Feng he had in mind. He was tall, dignified, and upright, however his facial features were a little too exquisite.

“Our master is Captain Chen of division two. He often praises you as a genius of the detective team. You are young and promising, and you have a bright future!” Bai Luo also looked at Feng Jing with admiration.

Feng Jing coughed lightly and glared at Lin Jia before saying to Bai Luo and Xia Jin, “Oh, I’ve met Captain Chen before. He’s the true senior in the detective team. You can learn a lot from him.”

Lin Jia could not help smiling when he saw that Feng Jing was struggling to cope with the situation. He asked Yin Tao, “Little Sister Xiaotao, surely you are not a police officer too?”

“She’s—”

Bai Luo’s words were interrupted by Yin Tao. “Ah, you can say that!”

Yin Tao awkwardly smiled. Bai Luo and Xia Jin saw that she was intentionally hiding a fact, so they didn’t say anything more.

The few of them exchanged a few pleasantries before parting ways.

“What do you think Yin Hao’s younger sister does? Why can’t I get anything out of her everytime I ask?” Lin Jia asked Feng Jing as he watched the three of them walk away.

“Is the job of the mayor’s assistant very idle? You’re really that bored to bother with a little girl’s job.” After saying that, Feng Jing walked towards a black jeep parked by the roadside.

“Hey, aren’t you a genius at solving cases?” Lin Jia followed and sat in the passenger seat. He raised his eyebrows at Feng Jing, who was starting the car, and asked, “Take a guess if Yin Hao’s younger sister is a police officer?”

“Unlikely to be a police.” Feng Jing had no choice but to continue, “Her two friends are both detectives. When she faced the perpetrator just now, she couldn’t even protect herself. With her physique, she is unlikely to be a police officer.”

Starting the car, Feng Jing thought of Yin Tao’s young and tender face. “It might be a job in the police records office or call center. Furthermore, her family isn’t supportive of her.”

“That makes sense. The Yin couple has very high standards. They probably think that their daughter’s job isn’t glamorous enough, so they don’t want to mention Yin Tao’s job.” Lin Jia looked at Feng Jing’s deep set eyes and asked, “What about you? What do you think of Yin Tao’s job?”

“What do you mean what I think?” Feng Jing was puzzled.

“Will you despise her work?” Lin Jia probed.

“Is it that important whether I despise it or not?” Feng Jing knew that Lin Jia was trying to imply something.

“No, I just think that Yin Tao is a good girl. Although she looks delicate, her personality is quite brave.” Lin Jia sincerely felt that Yin Tao was a good person. Compared to the gentle and elegant Yin Ning, Lin Jia actually admired Yin Tao’s innocence and kindness more.

“She’s not bad. If you like her, go for it! What she works as isn’t that important.” Feng Jing also felt that Yin Tao was much simpler than her elder sister. Indeed, she was more suitable for the taste of a sly old fox like Lin Jia.

“Brother, in this case you have got to help me.” Lin Jia had been waiting for Feng Jing to say this. “Aren’t you going to be transferred to the branch soon? Help me look out for Yin Tao and get me her contact number.”

“Can’t you just directly ask Yin Hao for it?” Feng Jing did not understand Lin Jia’s actions.

“I can see that the little girl’s relationship with her family is so so.” Lin Jia smiled and said to Feng Jing, “I’m afraid that it will backfire. It’s safer for you to help me.”

Feng Jing neither agreed or refused. “Let’s talk about it after I have transferred to the branch.”

“Hey, why do you insist on going to the branch?” Lin Jia thought for a moment and asked in surprise, “Brother, are you still secretly investigating your elder brother’s case?”

Feng Jing’s silence further confirmed Lin Jia’s suspicion.

Lin Jia sighed weakly and said, “Sigh, it’s been so many years. Feng Jing, try to look ahead.”
