Crazy Detective

Zhao Yu didn't break his promise. He and his group had great fun for the next several days. They visited the forbidden city of the Qing Dynasty and the film production base. They went to great mountains and rivers, they watched traditional song-and-dance duet, tried local food, and also went to KTV.

However, Zhao Yu's team members didn't know why they suddenly earned a holiday. Wu Xiumin and Li Beini knew Zhao Yu the best out of everyone. At first, they thought that Zhao Yu just wanted a break for a few days, but unexpectedly, Zhao Yu didn't mention the case at all anymore.

It was the fifth day since they had left the office, but Zhao Yu didn't seem to want to return. He even took his team members to the local zoo and they rode the roller coaster. This was the third time they had ridden the roller coaster in the last five days. As the roller coaster swooped down, Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu screamed loudly, but Li Beini, Wu Xiumin, and others beside them looked frustrated. Their vacant-looking eyes showed that they were not as excited as Zhao Yu.

When the roller coaster stopped, Zhao Yu took Cui Lizhu to play shooting games. Although Zhao Yu had practiced before, his shooting skills were disappointing. They spent 100 yuan but still won no prizes. However, they still were having a lot of fun so they gave it another try.

"Alas." Looking at Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu, Li Beini sighed. "What happened to leader Zhao?" she asked Wu Xiumin. "It's been five days. What does he want?"

"I don't know what he wants." Wu Xiumin took up a cup of milk tea. "But I know that group leader Miao is coming back. When she arrives, we will see," she said leisurely.

"Oh? Is the case at Gao Lanqi finally over? So, there is only one case left out of the five pending cases?" Li Beini asked.

"Yes, I have the same feeling as you," Wu Xiumin said, looking at Zhao Yu in the distance. "I think that our leader is more suited to looking into the pending cases. Finding this treasure is really not what he is good at."

"Impressive!" Li Beini exclaimed. "How did you know what I was thinking? I think that leader Zhao has done his best. In fact, we shouldn't have taken this case from the beginning. Now I'm afraid that the two-month deadline is coming up. We are still where we were at the beginning. Wu, the Secret Service knows that we can't do it. So why did they choose us?"

Wu Xiumin shook her head and said, "I don't know, but I have a feeling that the Secret Service may have seen something in team leader Zhao. They want to poach him."

"Ah? What do you mean?" Li Beini asked, appearing surprised.

"Don't forget, our team leader beat a group of their agents all by himself," Wu Xiumin said with a smile. "Anyone like our boss who is good at both fighting and solving cases is a candidate they would want." Suddenly, Wu Xiumin spotted an acquaintance. She pointed to them in the distance. Li Beini looked in that direction and was surprised to see a tall woman in a jacket walking towards Zhao Yu.

Wu Xiumin and Li Beini exchanged looks. They needed to tell Zhao Yu about this. Zhao Yu had actually noticed their unexpected guest before they had.

"Hello. Group leader Zhao." The woman came to the shooting range and waved to Zhao Yu in an impolite way. "I want to talk to you. Come here."

When Cui Lizhu saw the woman, she felt nervous. "How come you are here?" she asked. The woman was Captain Li of the Secret Service.

"Well..." Zhao Yu raised his eyebrows, pointed to the gun in his hand, smiled, and said, "Captain Li, I've just paid for the game. Can I finish this?"

"Hum." Li Jing gave a cold hum and took the gun from him. Far from the shooting line, she pulled the trigger. The distant electronics suddenly rang, showing she had hit the target.

"Ah?" The shooting range owner stamped his foot and shouted, "Stop, there is a problem with my machine. That doesn't count."

"D*mn you." Cui Lizhu clapped excitedly and grabbed several fluffy toys as their prize. The owner of the range began to argue with Cui Lizhu.

Li Jing had already put the gun down and walked away from the shooting range. Zhao Yu followed her, though unwillingly. "Zhao Yu, stop it. It didn't work." Li Jing said coldly.

"Ah? What do you mean?" Zhao Yu pretended that he didn't understand what she was talking about.

"Can't you understand? Your plan failed." Li Jing shook her head and said, "You're trying to use Cui Lizhu as bait to lure the murderer out, right?"

Zhao Yu frowned and said, "Wow. Impressive. My people don't even know my plan yet. How do you know that? It seems that you've done a lot of research on me. Why? Was it because the last time we kissed and you fell in love with me? No way, you know I have a girlfriend. I will never cheat on my girl... "

"Your shamelessness would have killed you more than 800 times if you were not good at beating people." Li Jing rolled her eyes at him and said, "we've been following you for five days. We've done everything we can to locate your mobile phone, monitor your activities, and use drones to record you. We are absolutely sure that you are not the target of anyone's surveillance. So, I'm here today to advise you to stop doing meaningless things."

Li Jing was right. What Zhao Yu had been doing these days was his plan to lure the murderer by using Cui Lizhu as the bait. He knew that it was not a wise decision, but he had no alternatives. He had put an upgraded positioner on Cui Lizhu, and also had spent a lot of points to upgrade his Invisible Detector, expand the detection range, and strengthen its functions. By doing this, once someone was on the trail, he would know immediately. However, the plan did not work for him. In the past five days, the only things his devices detected were the devices of the Secret Service.

"Now you know that this is not fun, right? The deadline is coming. I think you are ready to hand in your blank report. If so, keep playing and have fun," Li Jing said coldly. After that, Li Jing turned and began to leave.

"Hum." Zhao Yu snorted coldly. "Captain Li, I'm afraid you are the last one who should criticize me," he said. "We are just helping each other. Our failure won't bring you any benefit. So, stop your victory speech."

"You are the Special Investigation Group. I'm the Secret Service. I don't have a deadline." Li Jing shook her head.

Zhao Yu suddenly became serious. "Is it? So, what do you want to remind me of? Isn't my failure what you want to see?" he asked.

Li Jing also said coldly, "Zhao Yu, this is my job. I came to remind you because of my job. You can ignore me if you like. There is something else you may not want to hear. You shouldn't bring up your past honors just to show off all the time, do you understand? Now many people are waiting to see you fall. The Secret Service has prepared the headline for you. Unsolved cases master is at the end of his career. What do you think?"

"Let me tell you, I have more than 10000 ways to solve the case. Let's wait and see," Zhao Yu said fiercely.

Zhao Yu waved at Cui Lizhu. The owner of the shooting range was still arguing with her. When Cui Lizhu heard Zhao Yu shouting her name, she immediately grabbed a bunch of fluffy toys then left with Zhao Yu.
