After I Sat At The Wrong Table For My Blind Date, The Crazy Female Lead Kidnapped Me Chapter 49

Chapter 49: The Protective Captain

Outside the cremation room.

Three veteran detectives stood in front of Xiao Yu, waiting for instructions.

Xiao Yu’s expression was cold as he held his phone to his ear.

Who was calling?

A deputy director from the police administrative departnt.

This person was unfamiliar to him, but they knew his number and called him.

Calling during an investigation clearly had a purpose.

“Sorry, but you can directly call our captain.”

Xiao Yu said coldly, “If the captain says so, we’ll withdraw imdiately.”

With that, he hung up the phone.

Was it soone the crematorium manager called?

Your strong survival instinct has triggered your potential?

The more you do this, the more excited I get!

However…

So people are like QR codes; you don’t know what they are until you scan them.

Even if you’re an administrative officer, or even my direct superior, so what?

Yesterday, Guo Qiang had ntioned that this case had ‘significant resistance.’

Xiao Yu had prepared for this outco.

Would the captain call him?

No way.

Although they hadn’t worked together long, Xiao Yu knew the captain was righteous, had strong principles, and was straightforward.

How to describe it?

He’s not very smooth in his behavior, a bit of a brute.

When Zhao Changsheng gets pushed, he’d just say, “Are you brothers? Let’s go chop them down.”

He’s good at solving cases, but not at scheming—different specialties.

To Xiao Yu’s surprise.

Zhao Changsheng actually called him.

“Captain, what’s up?” Xiao Yu’s expression was complex.

Did I misjudge him?

“Focus on your investigation. If anything happens, I, as the captain, will take the heat. As long as I’m alive, no one can ss with you. Bye!”

Zhao Changsheng hung up.

Xiao Yu’s eyes instantly brightened, his blood boiling.

I love a boss like this—so damn protective!

“Brother Li, investigate this manager.”

Xiao Yu looked at one detective, “You know what to look for?”

“Got it!” The detective grinned and walked away.

What will he investigate?

Sources of inco, living conditions, any large unexplained assets…

Guo Qiang and another detective exchanged a glance and laughed.

This manager is really looking for trouble, and it’s clear Xiao Yu is genuinely angry.

Typically, detectives wouldn’t handle this kind of work, as it’s more suited for economic cri investigations.

Once they do, it’s ant to ruin you.

Trying to apply pressure, huh? Playing resistance, huh?

I’ll ruin you first; let’s see how you play then!

“Brother Liu, pull up the surveillance footage.”

Xiao Yu directed another detective.

“Alright.” The detective left.

These two team mbers—one surnad Li, Li Xin, 37 years old, third-class police inspector.

The other surnad Liu, Liu Hongqiao, 35 years old, first-class superintendent.

Both, like Guo Qiang, were veteran detectives in the Criminal Investigation Brigade, with strong investigative skills.

It’s clear that several captains and instructors intentionally placed them by Xiao Yu’s side.

Xiao Yu’s abilities were evident.

Pairing him with three experienced team mbers.

Imagine the strength of this team.

The Criminal Investigation Brigade aims to create an internal ‘major cris unit’ to handle large, urgent cases in the future.

Even if Xiao Yu doesn’t get promoted to superintendent or clerk upon returning from the provincial capital.

He will still be the team leader of this group.

His abilities are too strong!

After giving instructions, Xiao Yu and Guo Qiang checked the crematorium’s interior but found no clues.

This seed very wrong.

The manager definitely had issues.

The employees also had issues.

This crematorium, without a doubt, had significant problems.

What kind of person feels guilty when they see the police?

If you haven’t committed a cri, why feel guilty?

Without any clues, Xiao Yu wouldn’t take people back for interrogation.

Without knowing what cri they committed, what would he ask?

Entering the small funeral parlor, Xiao Yu stopped and watched a crematorium employee explaining sothing to a family preparing for a cremation.

“Sorry, the regular furnace is under maintenance. The managent decided to use the eco-friendly furnace for now.” The employee smiled.

“Will it be expensive?” a family mber asked.

“Don’t worry, no extra charge. It’s billed as a regular cremation.” The employee explained.

The family agreed.

This conversation seed normal, any issues?

Why did Xiao Yu pay attention?

Because…

He had just been in the cremation room, watching a cremation.

If the furnace was broken, why not repair it imdiately?

Why were there no repair workers?

Offering the more expensive eco-friendly furnace at a discount?

Is the crematorium a charity?

The employee’s seemingly logical explanation was full of inconsistencies.

Where was the problem?

Returning to the cremation room, Xiao Yu asked an employee, “How long has the regular furnace been broken?”

“Huh?”

The employee was stunned by the question, nervously replying, “It broke this morning.”

This morning?

How convenient?

If it’s broken, why are you nervous?

Just as Xiao Yu was about to ask more questions.

Liu Hongqiao, who retrieved the surveillance footage, returned, “Boss, there’s an issue!”

Huh?

Xiao Yu’s eyes lit up as he took the tablet from Liu Hongqiao.

He opened a surveillance video and started watching…
