Chapter 2160: Giving the Common People Fairness

“After investigating, there was nothing suspicious about the transactions on her bank card, and there were no large cash deposits.”

“Brother Li, I think this isn’t sufficient to conclude that she is innocent,” Zhang Peng said,

“Who knows, maybe the money was transferred to someone else’s account.”

Li Xianghui nodded, “Exactly, which is why the Shanwei police have now detained her for further investigation at any time.”

Smack~~~

Zhu Junchi lit a cigarette and leaned back in his chair, “I feel, whether it’s our case here or the one in Shanwei, the suspect’s tactics are very sophisticated, definitely the work of an experienced criminal, just like the case we handled a few years ago which already had a certain scale. We all need to be on our toes.”

“Although it’s incidental, we should meet and thoroughly investigate this matter,” Li Xianghui said,

“I’ll call the Shanwei contacts later; if there is a need for a joint investigation, some of you younger ones should go there to gain some experience.”

“Understood.”

After finishing their business, everyone gradually packed up their things and went home. On the way to drop Ji Qingyan back home, Lin Yi received a call from Li Xianghui.

Telling them to set a time for a trip to Shanwei tomorrow.

“Are we going on a business trip tomorrow?” Ji Qingyan asked in the car.

“It’s the same case I mentioned to you yesterday. There have been similar incidents in Shanwei, and we suspect it’s the same group involved, planning a joint investigation. We need to go there tomorrow.”

“Will it be dangerous?”

“Well, there’s definitely some danger, but it’s not enough to threaten me.”

Ji Qingyan, aware of Lin Yi’s situation, was just a bit concerned and not actually worried.

“Why did you choose to become a policeman?”

The sudden question caught Lin Yi off guard.

“Didn’t I tell you before? I was bored and wanted to experience life.”

“But you’ve been ‘experiencing’ for quite a while, don’t you ever think of changing careers?”

“Are you implying that this profession is too dangerous?”

Ji Qingyan didn’t answer, her silence replacing her words.

Lin Yi too was silent for a long while before he slowly began to speak, his voice low,

“Do you think the world is fair?”

“Not fair,” Ji Qingyan said.

“But the unfairness you’ve experienced isn’t the same as that faced by ordinary people, at least you’re not struggling with basic survival,” Lin Yi said,

“The common folk are different; for them, experiencing unfairness could lead to catastrophic impacts on their life.”

Lin Yi sighed deeply, then continued,

“I feel that if I can help them a little in some ways, it would be very meaningful, because I’m not driven by personal gain, and I can offer them a fair response.”

“So this is what you consider the meaning of your life.”

“Yes,” Lin Yi said,

“Just like the Lingyun Group’s lithography machines and chips, they’ve made enough money, it’s about time to preserve some good reputation.”

Ji Qingyan didn’t object, as sometimes she too pondered over this issue.

With the amount of money she had, she would never be able to spend it all in this lifetime, nor would her future children; thus, what was the real significance of earning more money?

Now, it seems Lin Yi lives his life more clearly, having long dropped the obsessions of ordinary people to pursue more meaningful goals.

Perhaps the position he used to hold was where he could fulfill his life’s ambitions.

Was she being too selfish?

Ji Qingyan rested her head in her hand, gazing out at the scenery while muttering to herself in her heart,

“Selfish then selfish, after all, I’m just an ordinary woman.”

After dropping Ji Qingyan off at home, Lin Yi also had his dinner.

But because he had to go on a business trip the next day, he went back to his own home instead of staying at Ji Qingyan’s.

“Don’t forget to pack a change of clothes and a coat, bring an extra one just in case.”

As he was leaving, Ji Qingyan stood at the door and reminded him.

“It’s not necessary, I’ll be back in a few days, and if it gets cold, I’ll just go out and buy one.”

“You can buy coats, but have you ever bought underwear?”

“Uh…”

Lin Yi then realized that he had indeed never shopped for things like underwear and socks.

Before he knew Ji Qingyan, these tasks were managed by his mother.

Sometimes, he would go back to pick them up, or she would buy them and mail them to him.

After meeting Ji Qingyan, she took over all these tasks; his life was filled with her presence.

Lin Yi chuckled, “Why don’t you come back and pack for me?”

“You wish,” Ji Qingyan replied, playfully wrinkling her petite nose, “Pack yourself at home, I’ll supervise.”

“Fine then.”

Lin Yi said with a smile, then drove back home.

Under Ji Qingyan’s careful instructions, he packed his luggage properly.

The next morning at nine.

Lin Yi, Gu Yiran, Zhang Zixin, and Zhang Peng, gathered at the airport, ready to fly to Shanwei, and landed around 11:30 AM.

Lin Yi didn’t have a good impression of this place.

The local powers were extremely chaotic, and very bold, daring to lay hands even on official personnel, something unimaginable in other areas.

After disembarking, the three of them carrying their own luggage walked out of the terminal building. They were met by a young man about their age.

Before this, Lin Yi had learned some information about him.

The person who came to receive them was named Chen Hongyu, quite tall and good-looking, speaking with a slight accent.

“Welcome to Shanwei, I hope everything goes smoothly with this case,” Chen Hongyu greeted them warmly, smiling.

“We’re here to work on a case, so we’ll be relying on you guys to help out,” Gu Yiran said.

“Of course, let’s get in the car first. I’ll take you guys to try some of Shanwei’s delicacies, then we’ll head back to the office in the afternoon.”

“Thank you.”

Exiting the airport, the group headed to a seafood restaurant where they enjoyed a lavish meal before making their way to the Longhu Branch in Shanwei.

At that moment, there were four people sitting in the meeting room.

None of the four were particularly young.

The oldest was about in his forties, the youngest in his early thirties, roughly the same age as Gu Yiran, representing a core strength of the office.

“What is Zhong Hai doing, sending four young people here to handle the case? What experience do they have? It’s ridiculous.”

The speaker was a man in his forties with a cigarette in hand, his expression rather grim.

His name was Xu Jun, the deputy head of the sub-division.

“They are from Zhong Hai after all, and we’re just a prefectural city. Naturally, they won’t consider us highly, which is quite normal.”

The speaker sat at the head of the table, a man in his early forties, dark-skinned with a fierce look about him.

His name was Ma Xinglong, the head of the division.

“Now that they are here, not lowering their status at all, they sure think highly of themselves,” Xu Jun scoffed.
