Smiling, Xia Jinyuan looked at Ye Jian who seemed rather calm. Since she had done nothing wrong, she had no mental burden at all about the upcoming interview at the police station.

Indeed, she was carefree. It’s not that she had done anything evil. Why should she feel scared?

Before entering the interrogation room, Ye Jian smiled calmly at him. And then, she entered the room with two police officers, a female and a male.

Xia Jinyuan stood outside for around three minutes before heading to the commissioner’s office.

“Major Xia, take a seat,” Commissioner Liu of the municipal police station greeted Xia Jinyuan warmly. From his tone, it’s clear that they had known each other for years.

Commissioner Liu didn’t sit down until he had made a cup of tea for Xia Jinyuan. “Leader Xia called me last night and I mentioned that I saw you at the police station yesterday. He said that he hoped that you would call him if you have time.”

The municipal police station was subordinate to the provincial department of public security, which was subject to the Ministry of Public Security.

“Thank you, Commissioner Liu,” Xia Jinyuan took over the cup of tea handed to him by the commissioner. Thanks to his natural dignified disposition, he kept calm in front of the commissioner of a municipal police station.

He took a sip of the tea. While Commissioner Liu was smiling, he lifted his eyes and smiled. “There is one thing I need your help with, Commissioner Liu.”

He didn’t say “please” or “excuse me”. The “need” in his words had expressed his attitude. Commissioner Liu must help him.

The smile on Commissioner Liu’s face became more obvious as he heard Xia Jinyuan’s words. “Major Xia, you are welcome. Just tell me what to do. Ha-ha. You have been here for half a year, and this is the first time you want my help.”

It was well known that in the Beijing City, Major Xia had seldom asked anyone for a favor.

Ever since Major Xia came to this place, numerous people had hoped he would ask for something from them someday.

But Major Xia had been silent for half a year. Unexpectedly, such a great opportunity occurred to Commissioner Liu.

When Xia Jinyuan finished his words, Commissioner Liu burst into laughter. “So, that’s the issue you were referring to. No problem at all. I will get it later and let you have a copy.”

“All right, thank you, Commissioner Liu,” Xia Jinyuan had never been fond of small talks. Now that he had achieved his goal, he stood up right away. “I’m going to see that girl. She’s a timid middle school student. I need to buck her up.”

Since he had stood up, Commissioner Liu naturally wanted to see him off.

Nevertheless, Xia Jinyuan waved his hands as a gesture of refusal. “I know the routes in the police station. Commissioner Liu, I won’t take up your time. See you later.”

He was never a fan of small talks, that’s why he had investigated Commissioner Liu before asking him for help. He would not have visited Commissioner Liu if he discovered he was problematic.

Within half an hour, the interview with Ye Jian had finished because her answers were flawless. Talking and laughing, she walked out of the interrogation room with the two police officers. Xia Jinyuan grabbed the bag handed to him by Commissioner Liu and exchanged a few words with him. Then, he walked towards Ye Jian.

Commissioner Liu had got the thing done in five minutes.

The reason Xia Jinyuan didn’t let Commissioner Liu see him off was that he hoped he could handle the issue as soon as possible so that he could give the girl a surprise in time.

“Thank you for your hard work,” Ye Jian apologized to the police officers. “I didn’t expect that my casual behavior would bother you. I’m so sorry.” She was an honest person. One could sense her sincerity from her words and facial expressions.

She was very similar to Xia Jinyuan in this aspect.

While saying goodbye to the police officers, Ye Jian had seen the proud and cold Xia Jinyuan striding to her from the end of the corridor. So, she sped up and walked to him as well.
