Ye Yu sat at Qi Yu's desk, staring at the smiling man behind the desk with a grim face, without saying a word.

"Hehe, don't look at me with such terrible eyes, isn't the case already solved~" Qi Yu smiled and took a sip of the coffee in his hand. "The man caught at the scene has confessed, he is the criminal in this series of headless female corpse cases, and the heads of the other victims have also been found in the nearby basement. Speaking of which, you have made a great contribution to solving the case this time, I don't understand what you are dissatisfied with......"

"But you know...... That's not what I'm angry about! Ye Yu clenched his fists and gritted his teeth to look at Qi Yu's face, the anger in his eyes was undisguised. Since you were able to deploy in advance on the scene, you actually knew where the murderer was hiding?? Or, you already knew the identity of the murderer, but you ignored the safety of the hostages and concealed the police department, the purpose was to grab the merit at the last moment? ? ”

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not interested in the credit for this case." Qi Yu smiled, seemingly unimpressed by Ye Yu's questioning.

"But you're right, I did know the identity of the killer before the police department, but that's about it. As for the whereabouts of the murderer, I also learned about the same time as you, but our operation efficiency is higher than that of the police department. ”

"But since the identity of the murderer has been known for a long time, why don't you tell the police department and let them launch a wanted notice earlier?! If we had caught someone earlier, we might have been able to save a few victims! Ye Yu reprimanded angrily.

"Heh, you take it for granted, many things are not as simple as you imagined." Qi Yu put down his coffee and looked up at Ye Yu. "I also wanted to arrest that person sooner, just for some reason...... We can't disclose information about him to other departments, let alone the outside world. ”

"Some...... Cause? I don't understand......" Ye Yu frowned. "And this headless female corpse case was originally the responsibility of the police department, why did the Special Affairs Investigation Bureau suddenly intervene?"

"You're also from the Special Investigation Bureau, aren't you also involved in this matter?" Qi Yu asked with a smile.

"I ...... Forehead......" Ye Yu lowered his head. Momentarily speechless.

Qi Yu saw Ye Yu's embarrassment, so he stopped holding on to it and continued to speak.

"I can tell you the truth, we've been secretly hunting down this man for a long time, but it hasn't been successful. A while ago, I got some clues about this person's whereabouts, and I almost caught the other party, but I let him escape at a critical time, and then the clues were interrupted for a while, until ......"

Qi Yu paused, stretched out his hand and pointed at Ye Yu in front of him. He smiled meaningfully.

"Until you ...... Brought me new leads. ”

"Me??" Ye Yu looked inexplicable.

"Yes." Qi Yu crossed his fingers, leaned back to the back of the chair, and said calmly. "The things you asked the other people in the bureau to check for you in private contain important clues.

“！！” Ye Yu's face changed, and he instantly remembered the bullying videos he asked Ah Xiu to delete.

"You...... You know it all? Ye Yu looked nervous, for fear that he would implicate the innocent Ah Xiu because of his own fault.

"Hehe, as the head of the Eastern District, you naturally have to know everything in the game, but you don't have to worry. I won't blame you for such a trifle...... Or someone else. Qi Yu said with a smile. Thanks to you, I noticed the video and realized that the man in the background was the person I was looking for. ”

"So you've been looking for the man in the military coat since then?"

"Yes. At the same time, we also realized that this man may be related to the recent serial murders, but because he is involved in the police department, it will somewhat hinder our covert operations, and if he is allowed to fall into the hands of other departments. I'm afraid it's going to be a bit of a hassle...... I was thinking about how to solve this matter, but I didn't expect you to actively investigate this matter in private, so I just pushed the boat down. I left it up to you to investigate, and you lived up to your expectations and gathered a lot of information for me, which made us finally succeed in making the first move. ”

"You...... You've been using me! Ye Yu couldn't hold back anymore and said excitedly. I was deliberately given a vacation before, and I also wanted me to inquire about the news for you, didn't you?! ”

"Yes." Qi Yu admitted unabashedly. "A lot of the information in this case is monopolized by the police department, and for some reason, I can't ask them to cooperate from the official level, so I can only rely on you to break into their interior to get information, if you want to say that this is 'exploitation', then I will not deny it."

"You ......" Ye Yu was so choked by the other party that he couldn't speak.

"I know you're upset that I'm hiding this from you, but I want to ask, if I had been assigned to you on official duty this time, would you still be as active as you were before?" Qi Yu said, raising his eyes and looking at Ye Yu.

"Absolutely! Why not? Ye Yu said without hesitation. Investigation is investigation, and it is related to the safety of the people, so it is natural to do our best to investigate! It doesn't matter who sent the task! ”

"Oh, really...... I thought you would only work for Lou Yue......" Qi Yu chuckled softly. "That seems to be me too narrow-minded before, I'm sorry."

"If you really want me to help you investigate the case, you shouldn't have hidden so much from me in the first place!" Ye Yu said dissatisfiedly. "And you know you didn't tell me now, that man...... Who is he!? ”

Qi Yu didn't answer, and the smile on the corner of his mouth suddenly faded a lot. He picked up the coffee cup again and tasted it carefully, and after a long time, he looked up at Ye Yu again, but there was something cold in his sight.

"It seems that you still don't understand the reason why I let you see Lou Yue before." Qi Yu put down the coffee cup, and the temperature in his words was a little colder. "I think Lou Yue should have warned you about something, but...... You don't seem to be listening at all. ”

"I ......" Ye Yu suddenly remembered the words of Lou Yue and himself before parting, and suddenly realized something, and a layer of uneasiness surged up in his heart for no reason.

『…… Don't ask anything, don't do anything, the only thing you have to think about is how to protect yourself......

The identity of the man in the military coat is probably the "forbidden area" that he can't touch!

Ye Yu's face turned pale, and he suddenly became a little uneasy, and Qi Yu on the other side suddenly smiled again after staring at Ye Yu for a long time.

"I've been busy for so long, I guess you're tired too, I'll give you a special permission to take a big vacation." Qi Yu said, took out a document from the folder on the side, signed it casually and handed it to Ye Yu. "I'm not taking advantage of you this time, so get some rest."

"......" Ye Yu took the leave approval, and knew in his heart that Qi Yu didn't plan to involve himself in any more bureau matters, so he didn't say anything more, and silently turned around and left the office.

Heh, this time, I can't even be an errand boy......

Ye Yu smiled bitterly and glanced at the year-long leave order in his hand, and couldn't help but feel the shame of being used and thrown away, and at the same time, a deeper question gradually came to his heart.

Whether it is the information obtained from the police station or the conclusion of his investigation, he has never reported it to Qi Yu, or rather, he deliberately hid it from Qi Yu, but why...... Will Qi Yu know clearly? How did he know that?

Ye Yu pondered, and a delicate figure who didn't want to admit it but couldn't help but think of it gradually came to mind.

Shinoru ...... It's you...... Are you monitoring me for Qi Yu?

Thinking of this, Ye Yu's body trembled slightly, this tremor was not due to fear, but a kind of anger betrayed by someone he trusted.

Ye Yu...... You're out! How's the talk? ”

A sweet voice came from behind him, and Ye Yu didn't need to look to know who was coming.

"Xiaolu ......" Ye Yu slowly turned around, looking at this companion who had been born and died with him in the investigator exam, but suddenly he didn't know what expression to use to face it.

"You...... What's wrong? Xiaolu sensed that something was wrong with Ye Yu and suddenly stopped.

"Do you have time now......" Ye Yu stared at Xiaolu's face, and after being silent for a few seconds, he slowly opened his mouth.

"I have something to ask you." ——

"It's really hard for you this time, Qi Yu."

A deep, deep male voice echoed from behind the tall leather chair in this simple yet sophisticated secret room.

"It's my pleasure to serve you." Qi Yu's indifferent voice came from the phone. "People have made it to your side, right?"

"Yes, it's being 'processed' now." The man in the leather chair replied.

"That's good, I'm worried that the chief will interfere......

"You don't have to worry about this, I have already made arrangements, even if An Xi asks me for someone now, it will be too late." The man's tone was unfazed. "It's just that the police department may put pressure on you, so I'm going to trouble you to take it first, and I'll solve it for you after this side is dealt with."

"I'm fine, I'm afraid the most stressed right now is Director An."

"Hmph, when this matter is done with us, I am afraid that her pressure will be more than a thousand times greater than it is now." The man snorted softly. "But I believe that with An Xi's usual style, she will not be so resigned, you have to keep an eye on the movements of several other sub-bureaus for us, especially ...... It's the West End. ”

"Hehe, you really still care about 'him'."

The man ......was silent and didn't speak, and Qi Yu on the other end of the phone obviously sensed the invisible pressure, so he smiled again.

"Don't worry, I'll definitely pay attention to the other bureaus, you can get busy first, don't disturb your work......

"Knock Knock ......"

There was a polite knock at the door of the secret room, and the man hung up the phone, slowly turned the leather chair, and looked at the young man in military uniform who had entered the secret room.

"Sir, the results are out, and that person's 'brain' really has information." The young man saluted and said respectfully.

"We already know the whereabouts of the Bloodkey Bracelet." (To be continued.) )
