Chapter 1146 - 1077: Time Difference
Dawn.
Jiang Yuan and Liu Jinghui, along with others, walked out of the crime scene in the mock Ming Dynasty building, stepping on a transparent acrylic bridge.
A few people saw them and immediately came over to greet them.
Soon, a white-shirted man hurriedly got off a bus painted with the words "SWAT" nearby and walked briskly toward them.
Wang Chuanxing, worried that Jiang Yuan might not recognize him, quickly whispered in his ear, "That’s Dai Zhi’s deputy, Lin Xunlei, the deputy captain."
As they spoke, Lin Xunlei had already arrived in front of the police cordon and smiled, "Captain Dai had to attend a meeting and just left not long ago. He asked me to watch over things. Director Jiang, Director Liu, you’ve been working hard."
"You’re too kind." Liu Jinghui, now smiling cheerfully, stepped forward to shake hands with Lin Xunlei and said, "You really didn’t need to worry about us; just have someone guide the way, and that would’ve been enough."
"That won’t do. Having the nation’s top criminal investigators visit Lanyue City is a rare learning opportunity for all of us..." Lin Xunlei exchanged pleasantries and then said, "It’s just about time for breakfast. Let’s go try some of Lanyue City’s signature morning dishes, and I’ll escort you back to the hotel afterward. What do you think?"
"We can just eat at the hotel," Liu Jinghui declined.
Lin Xunlei waved his hand. "Hotel food is standard fare. We can’t say it’s bad, but it doesn’t represent the essence of Lanyue City’s breakfast cuisine. If I let you leave like this, people might say we don’t have any good food here in Lanyue City!"
