Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

Chapter 839 413: Neither Warm Nor Cold? Active Cooperation_2

"Su Jianfan, there's no need to belittle yourself. After all, from what I've seen, your ability to cooperate with our investigation is quite strong. You also have great potential for growth."

"Including the previous few investigations, you've provided me with a lot of important clues. So, I must treat you to this meal."

Su Jianfan was flattered upon hearing this, something he had never expected.

Luo Fei actually praised him like that.

This left him somewhat surprised.

After all, all along,

Su Jianfan grew up under the pressure of his father.

So until now, no one has praised him seriously like Luo Fei did.

"If it really doesn't work out, doesn't Old Han still have a few hundred yuan saved with Ma Liguo?"

Luo Fei suddenly changed the subject.

Causing Han Tiesheng's face to tighten.

But in the next second.

He began to mutter worriedly under his breath.

"I wonder how Ma Liguo and Cai Junfeng are doing..."

It was clear he wanted to say more but stopped.

However, Luo Fei seemed unconcerned.

He just continued to chat and laugh with Su Jianfan.

The next morning.

When Luo Fei got up.

Yang Mei was still asleep.

Her silky long hair draped over her fragrant shoulder.

Her tender white cheeks were bright and translucent, with rosy skin.

Her long eyelashes rested on her eyelids.

She was sleeping soundly.

Buzz—!

Just then.

Luo Fei's phone suddenly rang.

Waking Yang Mei.

But she still didn't say anything.

She just yawned.

"Mr. Luo, we've found him! We've finally caught Wang Eryong!"

In the next second.

As Cai Junfeng excitedly raised his voice.

Yang Mei was instantly alert.

Luo Fei was also somewhat surprised and asked in a slightly incredulous tone.

"Old Cai, where did you find Wang Eryong? What's going on?"

He sounded somewhat incredulous.

Hardly believing that this investigation went so smoothly.

Cai Junfeng explained with a smile.

"Mr. Luo, you might not know."

"Wang Eryong just got married last month to a single mother with a child. He thought his disguise was flawless."

"But who would have thought, Cheng's team had already listed him as a suspect."

"So this time, the moment we started a second round of screening, we caught him right away!"

Cai Junfeng spoke with immense joy inside.

Luo Fei nodded with a bit of relief.

"Old Cai, you've made a big contribution this time!"

Upon hearing Luo Fei say this.

Old Cai chuckled.

"Mr. Luo, whether we get credit or not is secondary."

"What I care about most right now. Is whether Cheng's team can be released early?"

Old Cai's tone was full of anticipation.

Clearly hoping Cheng's team could stop being misunderstood.

After all, the case has been solved.

If he can get out, that would truly be a happy ending.

But after hesitating for a while.

Luo Fei sighed.

"Old Cai, although I don't want to dampen your confidence, I must be honest with you. The chances are not very high."

Luo Fei knew well.

Though Old Cai and his team found Wang Eryong and brought this damned murderer to justice.

It's an indisputable fact that Cheng Bing injured Wang Dayong, leading to the suspect's failed rescue.

"Old Cai, rest assured, I'll definitely make it clear in the report. Strive for Cheng Bing's merits and help him get a sentence reduction."

"But it's not a guarantee that he'll be released immediately. I hope you can understand this."

Luo Fei's words led to a long silence on the other end of the phone.

However.

Old Cai was never an unreasonable person.

So he soon came to terms with it.

"Mr. Luo, no matter what, we still want to thank you."

"If not for your help, Cheng's team would have continued being misunderstood. You're the one who helped me think outside the box, tried a different approach, and finally made Wang Eryong completely exposed."

Old Cai's voice was full of gratitude.

At the very next moment.

Luo Fei, full of sincerity, suggested.

"Old Cai, now that the case has been solved. I think you and your brothers should be reinstated."

"This way, you'll stay with the Major Crimes Unit and do more work."

??

Luo Fei's words left Cai Junfeng stunned.

Because during their unauthorized actions this time.

He was prepared to be abandoned by Luo Fei.

Or even stripped of his Special Investigator status.

So upon learning that the other party was willing to keep him.

After a long while.

Cai Junfeng spoke up.

"Mr. Luo, do you really still want me and my brothers?"

His tone was somewhat incredulous.

Seemingly unable to believe that after their reckless actions, someone was still willing to keep them.

Luo Fei simply smiled.

"Do you even need to ask? You voluntarily resigned in the first place. Besides, I already knew you left the system to act more freely."

"Now that the case is completely solved. You and Old Ma should return to your original positions. It will be a fitting testament to my time training and helping you."

When Luo Fei said this.

There was a long silence on the other end.

"Mr. Luo, you've been so good to us! Thank you!"

"...I've never truly admired anyone in my life, you're one of the few!"

Initially, Luo Fei was curious about the situation.

But a while later, upon hearing some sobbing on the other end.

Luo Fei smiled and shook his head.

"Old Cai, don't get carried away. Once you're back in the system, you'll have to follow orders and commands."

"And you ought to be punished for acting recklessly this time."

Luo Fei's tone was serious, but Cai Junfeng was delighted.

"Mr. Luo, don't worry. I understand that my disregard for rules this time deserves punishment."

"I'm willing to bear all consequences and responsibilities. Feel free to impose any penalty."

"If I so much as bat an eye, I don't deserve to join the Major Crimes Unit!"

Luo Fei nodded affirmatively.

"Old Cai, you're right. So, I've decided to penalize you with a half-month rest. Once you're physically better, you can rejoin the team."

"But during these fifteen days, you're not allowed to go anywhere."

Luo Fei's intention was to ensure Cai Junfeng took good care of himself.

Cai Junfeng simply nodded in agreement.

"Rest assured, Mr. Luo, I will remember your words."

"And I think if Cheng's team knows about this, he will surely be delighted."

When Cai Junfeng said this, his tone was full of anticipation.

But Luo Fei hesitated slightly, saying.

"Old Cai, although I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm."

"But there's one thing I need to discuss with you."

Detecting Luo Fei's hesitance.

Cai Junfeng was intrigued.

"Mr. Luo, feel free to say whatever you have in mind."

"Well, Old Cai, I just think it might be best not to tell Cheng's team about this first."

Luo Fei had his reasons.

It's not that he didn't want to share the good news with Cheng Bing.

But in another perspective.

If Cheng Bing knew the news, knowing that if he'd been a bit more meticulous during the investigation.

He wouldn't have to stay five or six more years inside.

He might be severely impacted, his morale deteriorating.

Right now, he doesn't know the truth.

And so, inside, he might feel more hopeful, more motivated to persevere.

Thinking this through.

Luo Fei somewhat apologetically said.

"Old Cai, I'm really sorry, I know my thought might seem a bit selfish."

"But it's also for Cheng's team's good. I made this decision after careful consideration."

Upon hearing Luo Fei's analysis.

Cai Junfeng pondered momentarily.

Then he spoke.

"Mr. Luo, I believe your idea is quite sound."

"After all, it's out of respect for Captain Cheng. I think if he understood your good intentions, he'd be really pleased. Perhaps even grateful that you considered so much for him."

Cai Junfeng's straightforwardness surprised Luo Fei.

"Old Cai, since you understand my idea. I'll leave the matter of explaining to the rest of the team to you."
