Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

"By the way, my Record Officer, Wang Wenyuan, is specifically responsible for secretly investigating the Mei Hua Killer case. For this, I even rented a secluded cottage in the Barbaric Land for him, where he usually collects intelligence and probes the case in secret!"

Chen Jie and Zhao Ya exchanged a glance, both able to see the surprise in each other’s eyes.

So Wang Wenyuan rented a remote cottage to investigate the Mei Hua Killer?

Chen Jie was full of confusion, then looked at Chu Tian and said, "Magistrate Chu, coincidentally, we just came from Wang Canjun’s cottage."

"Oh, you actually traced it there, truly swift and decisive, I am impressed."

Chu Tian clasped his hands towards Zhao Ya and Chen Jie.

Chen Jie said, "We have just begun, and are not as deep in our investigation as Magistrate Chu. I wonder why Magistrate Chu would have a civil servant like Wang Wenyuan leave the government office and go to a secret place to investigate the Mei Hua Killer case?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Tian laughed and said, "Haha, Hundred Households Chen may not know, but Wang Wenyuan is a disciple of the former dynasty Song Ci and has a knack for solving cases. You must not underestimate him."

"As for why he is allowed to investigate this case in a secluded place, it is quite simple; because I do not want anyone to know that I am also investigating this case?"

"Why?"

Chen Jie looked at Chu Tian, and Chu Tian said, "Hehe, the reason is quite simple. I suspect that the Mei Hua Killer is mingling within the Huangzhou Prefecture’s officialdom and has a high status."

"Otherwise, the case would not have remained shelved for so long, difficult to solve."
