Is it Xu Mo Then it's fine.

"Who is it? Is it some little rascal who took the initiative to flirt with you? Tell me, I'm going to teach him a lesson!"

Chief Zhang's heart was filled with discontent when he thought about one of his police officers secretly wooing his precious daughter. After all, he had nurtured her for decades, and now she was about to be "plucked" by a pig! Who could be happy about that?

Especially since the "pig" in question was someone he knew—one of his subordinates!

Wow, I've been grooming you as my successor, treating you so well, and you want to be my son-in-law!?

Who would have thought, really, that people's hearts are so hard to read? Chief Zhang never imagined that someone could be so sly, managing to "pluck" his daughter right under his nose without him noticing.

Although the officers often joked with Chief Zhang about wanting to be his son-in-law, those were just jokes, and no one had taken action.

Who knew someone would actually make a move on his precious daughter!

Hearing her dad say he wanted to teach Xu Mo a lesson, Zhang Sitong immediately shook her head, "No, if you're going to say that, then I can't tell you!"

Chief Zhang: "???"

Indeed, she must have been fed some kind of love potion, otherwise, there's no reason for her to be so protective.

But Zhang Sitong didn't say anything, and Chief Zhang had plenty of ways to get the information out of her. He had risen to his current position because of his outstanding abilities, being promoted step by step. For a veteran police officer who had become the head of the police station, extracting information from a young girl who hadn't even entered society yet was a piece of cake.

"Who is it? Is it Xiao Li? Xiao Shen? Xiao Wang?"

"No, none of them, Dad, just stop asking. He's not a police officer from the station."

Not from the station? That's good, as long as it's not one of those rascals from the station! Hearing this, Chief Zhang immediately felt relieved.

But soon, his expression changed repeatedly.

"Wait a minute! Not from the station? But he was just at the station... You're not talking about Xu Mo, are you?"

According to Chief Zhang's knowledge, apart from the original officers at the station, only Xu Mo and Chen Ke were there to help.

Chen Ke was unlikely; he had broken his hand and was still in a cast. With that appearance... it was unlikely his daughter would be interested. After all, who would be attracted to a man with a cast on his hand and an ordinary appearance?

Excluding Chen Ke, there was only Xu Mo left.

What a coincidence! Chief Zhang had actually wanted to introduce Xu Mo to his daughter!

Originally, because his daughter had refused his offer to introduce her to a young man, Chief Zhang had been a bit worried. Now it seemed that maybe he didn't need to worry.

Seeing her dad's strange expression, Zhang Sitong was afraid he would target Xu Mo, so she quickly shook her head and stubbornly said, "No! You're wrong, it's not Xu Mo!"

Chief Zhang, having worked for decades, rarely had anyone successfully lie to him. He immediately saw through his daughter's thoughts.

Got it! My daughter is interested in Xu Mo! Thinking of this, Chief Zhang felt much more at ease. So his daughter is interested in Xu Mo? That's fine.

"You should have just said it was Xu Mo. I thought you were interested in one of the other rascals from the station. It scared me. If it were them, I definitely wouldn't agree. But since it's Xu Mo... I don't object. Xu Mo is a very good young man. I have high hopes for him," Chief Zhang said with a smile.

"Ah? Didn't you just say...," Zhang Sitong was a bit confused.

Just now, her dad said he wanted to teach the person she liked a lesson. Why did his attitude change when he mentioned Xu Mo? And from his tone, it seemed he was quite satisfied with Xu Mo. What was going on?

Realizing that his daughter might not have fully understood the situation, Chief Zhang quickly explained.

"Actually, the person I was going to introduce to you over the phone that day was Xu Mo, but you refused... How is it? My judgment wasn't wrong, was it? Isn't he excellent? I told you you'd be interested in him."

"Really?" Zhang Sitong still wasn't sure, afraid her dad might be saying the opposite.

"Of course, I wouldn't lie to you. I have high hopes for Xu Mo. There aren't many young men as outstanding as him nowadays. You need to act quickly!"

"Dad, you also think Xu Mo is excellent?"

"Of course. Do you know about the large-scale joint arrest operation led by our bureau involving all police stations in the city? Xu Mo played a significant role in it! If not for him, we wouldn't have caught so many people."

"The joint operation that arrested over three hundred people? Did Xu Mo contribute too?"

"More than just contributing; he was almost the main force! Let me tell you about the situation at the time..."

"..."

In the office, father and daughter chatted about Xu Mo.

Chief Zhang's words were filled with appreciation for Xu Mo.

...

In the neighboring Green Vine City.

The police officers who had come here to investigate the case by visiting the friends and relatives of the deceased had arrived.

According to the information they found about the deceased Xu Jing, they first went to Xu Jing's home and knocked on the door.

There was no response from inside, but a woman in her thirties next door heard the knocking and came out, looking at the officers, "Who are you looking for?"

"Is this Xu Jing's home?" Li Yunfei asked.

"Xu Jing? This used to be her home, but not anymore. They moved away a long time ago." The woman nodded first and then asked curiously, "Why are you looking for Xu Jing? What are you doing here?"

Hearing this, the officers immediately became interested and quickly showed their police badges.

"We are police officers. Do you know Xu Jing?"

"Of course, we grew up together. She's my best friend." Upon realizing that these people were police officers, the woman relaxed her guard, "Xu Jing has been missing for a long time. It's been about ten years... After Xu Jing disappeared for more than a year, her parents moved away and never came back. You probably won't find them here."

"We are here to investigate the case of Xu Jing's disappearance ten years ago. You are her best friend? Do you know what happened back then?"

This trip turned out to be fruitful. Although they didn't find Xu Jing's parents, they unexpectedly ran into Xu Jing's best friend. Perhaps they could get some information about what happened back then from her.

Best friends share everything, so Xu Jing's best friend might know more than her parents!
