Continent M’s movie was still in progress, and Qin Xiuchen had rushed back at this time to deal with the matter quickly.

Upon hearing this, he couldn’t help but pause and narrow his eyes. “The Criminal Investigation Brigade? Are you sure?”

Qin Xiuchen wasn’t a member of this circle but had once inadvertently helped a paparazzi reporter who turned out to be from 129. Without a word, she granted him ordinary permissions, so he knew more about this circle than ordinary people did.

Most of the cases that the Criminal Investigation team was responsible for in recent years had been large-scale encryption-level cases and had been set up with a special operations team.

Their reputation had been famous internationally a few years ago, but two years ago, ever since the retirement of some, their reputation hadn’t been as good…

After all, everyone in the circle knew that the Criminal Investigation team had someone backing it up.

But even if it wasn’t as good as before, the Criminal Investigation team in Beijing was still incomparable to other teams and was still responsible for handling major cases in China and abroad.

When did they concern themselves with car accidents?

“I’ve mentioned him to you before. It’s Hao Dui.” Ah Wen looked at him.

Before Qin Ling and Qin Hanqiu returned, Qin Xiuchen had been looking for news about them and had looked for detective offices and criminal investigators everywhere. He had also mentioned the current captain of the Criminal Investigation team to Ah Wen and the others.

After placing an order at 129 and being granted ordinary authority by the paparazzi reporter, his order had been accepted.

Hence, he managed to find Qin Hanqiu.

“Hao Dui?” Qin Xiuchen was a little confused. “Why would he care about this?”

He seemed somewhat unaware of the current situation.

Was the captain of the Criminal Investigation team so free nowadays?

Ah Wen remained silent and looked at Qin Hanqiu.

Abnormally quiet ever since yesterday, Qin Hanqiu noticed his stare and poured a gla.s.s of water for Qin Xiuchen. He explained in a low voice, “He seems to be Ran Ran’s friend. Ran Ran told me it’s okay and that you should return to filming.”

He didn’t believe in anyone else other than Qin Ran.

Qin Ran’s friend?

Qin Xiuchen looked at Qin Hanqiu’s silent but ignorant expression and couldn’t help but press his temples.

While Qin Ling was still sleeping, Qin Xiuchen glanced at Ah Wen and Butler Qin and motioned for them to come out.

The manager glanced at Qin Ling and followed them out.

The four stood in the corridor.

Before they could speak, a team of doctors and nurses rushed over from the end of the corridor. One of them was holding a notebook and directly walked to Qin Ling’s ward.

Qin Xiuchen stood aside and clearly saw that, except for the two nurses, all the doctors had s.h.i.+ny researcher tags hanging on their chests.

Film Emperor Qin was a little out of it.

“Oh, they have a team of medical directors to check Xiao Ling’s condition every half an hour.” Butler Qin and Ah Wen were obviously calm.

When did the affiliated hospital of the Research Inst.i.tute have such a terrifying service??

Qin Xiuchen was silent for a while again. “… go on.”

He remembered that when he called last night, he had specifically instructed Butler Qin not to let Qin Ran in on this.

Butler Qin and Ah Wen exchanged glances. Actually, they had yet to fully return to their senses. Since Qin Ran’s sudden appearance in the morning, everything seemed beyond their expectations.

They explained to him about Cheng Weiping and Lu Zhaoying’s team one by one.

As for Gu Xichi, neither of them saw him, and only the chief nurse came over to let them in about Qin Ling’s condition from time to time.

But it was enough for them to digest the information.

Qin Ran finished her business.

“The inspection report is out.” Hao Dui handed a report to Cheng Juan. “The driver took the drug before hitting him, which caused sudden epilepsy. However, the surveillance cameras at the intersection were destroyed…”

The perpetrator was obviously a habitual offender, and the epileptic seizure alone prevented most people from finding evidence.

Few people would check what medicine was in the bloodstream of an epileptic patient.

By the time someone took the time to check it, the drug would have long been metabolized, and the car accident could only pa.s.s.

But…

Once the drug was detected, everything was a different matter.

Without Cheng Juan and Qin Ran’s interference, Hao Dui had collected all the evidence that the driver bought drugs.

It was from an unknown source, and Qin Zhao was the person at the other end of the transfer flow.

The bearer phone records and road section monitoring of the two were found, although there was still no recording of the call.

But once the witness woke up and recorded his testimony, Qin Zhao’s instigation would directly be established.

As for whether the witness would obediently cooperate…

Other than a few hard-mouthed drug lords, the Criminal Investigation team had never missed a capture before.

From the time Lu Zhaoying found Hao Dui, in less than eight hours, everything fell in order.

After all, Hao Dui was the captain of the Criminal Investigation team, with very high authority in Beijing. He rarely needed a search warrant to investigate general cases.

While Hao Dui was talking to Cheng Juan, a member of the Criminal Investigation team on the other side of the road took a pen and looked at Cheng Mu, who was removing the roadblock. He lowered his voice and said, “I thought Hao Dui sent me out to investigate a case. It’s such a simple case and didn’t involve a drug lord. Who knew he sent himself to our door…”

He seriously looked at Hao Dui and didn’t dare to say something inside…

Wasn’t this a little… exaggerated?

Cheng Juan took the report and casually looked through it, then handed it to Qin Ran and said lightly, “Go back to the hospital first and bring these doc.u.ments along.”

He motioned for Lu Zhaoying to send her back.

Lowering her head to read the information, Qin Ran maintained a blank expression.

After Lu Zhaoying drove away, Cheng Juan took out a cigarette.

He turned to the intersection surveillance cameras with darkened eyes and said with an obviously indifferent voice, “That Fourth Master has high methods. He didn’t even intervene in the whole process. Everything is under his control.”

He was indeed skilled at getting someone else to do his dirty work.

If he and Qin Ran didn’t intervene, Qin Xiuchen and Qin Zhao would b.u.mp heads and both would lose out.

The Fourth Master always felt like Qin Xiuchen was Qin Ling’s support. If Qin Xiuchen was dismissed, the remaining bloodline wouldn’t be enough.

Qin Zhao wouldn’t have it any better, either.

The Fourth Master only made use of Qin Zhao to deal with Qin Xiuchen at this critical moment…

“Speaking of which, all the Qin family’s direct bloodline disappeared at the beginning. It’s indeed suspicious.” Hao Dui indifferently nodded. The Fourth Master’s methods were indeed high in the hands of the Qin family, but it wasn’t enough on their side.

Cheng Mu finished sealing the road and walked over to them. He heard their conversation and remained expressionless. Why did they have to make a move on Qin Ling…

They had yet to see the mercenary boss…

In the hospital.

The routine inspection ended.

After rus.h.i.+ng back only to find himself useless in this situation, Qin Xiuchen felt very complicated inside.

The uncontrollable joy in his heart from finding Qin Hanqiu and Qin Ling, to the apprehensiveness in discovering Qin Ran, to the surprise for Qin Ling’s talent, and now…

Holding a cigarette and leaning on the corridor, he obeyed the hospital rules and didn’t light it up, just stared into s.p.a.ce silently.

His phone rang and he took a look. It was from the district chief of the police station.

He stood up straight and picked it up.

On the other end, the head of the branch said, “You asked me to check the Fourth Master last night. I managed to find something. Are you in China? Come out and let’s talk about it…”

The head of the branch bureau was reputable and also handled many cases. He was one of the connections that Qin Xiuchen had acc.u.mulated.

“I only just returned.” Qin Xiuchen checked the time on his watch. “The Criminal Investigation team will take care of this matter, so you can put it down. See you in the old spot tomorrow, and we’ll discuss it in detail.”

“You even got the Criminal Investigation team?” The district chief stood up in surprise. He understood the current situation and didn’t say much. “We’ll talk more tomorrow.”

They hung up, and Butler Qin came out.

“Sixth Master.” He glanced at him and paused.

“What’s the matter?” Qin Xiuchen turned.

Butler Qin glanced at the ward and said, “Ordinary craniotomy surgery recovery will affect the nervous system disorders. Although the doctor said that the Young Master’s situation is different and he won’t have sequelae when he wakes up, he must not overuse his brain in the short term…”

Hearing this, Qin Xiuchen’s eyes sank, and he tightened his grip on the cigarette.

Qin Ling was coincidentally injured at this moment…

Butler Qin turned and pressed his lips slightly. “What will happen to the Young Master’s heir qualifications next week?” he asked, concerned.

It was fine if he couldn’t pa.s.s the heir qualifications, but…

Mr. Ku Ke said that he was very confident of Qin Ling’s abilities…

While Butler Qin was talking, Qin Xiuchen looked behind him and seemed to notice something.

Qin Ran was walking over with a stack of doc.u.ments in her hand. Her coat was unb.u.t.toned, and she was covered in snow. A strand of black hair covered her brow bones, and her eyes were extremely cold.
