"If you look at it this way, we really are together this ti."
Gu Tong said casually. Honestly, their opportunities to et were few and far between, let alone work together.
"Yes, but this case is quite tricky and sowhat troubleso. Right now, even the top levels in Shoucheng can’t control it, so we need to collaborate on this investigation."
The high-level cri investigation team in Shoucheng is divided into two groups: one consists of skilled officers from the police force, and the other comprises the Academy’s elites.
Only the particularly major and complex cases, which are impossible to handle, are handed over to the Academy. This highlights the challenging nature of this case.
"When I was reviewing the case integration files, I found that my dad and Uncle Qiao were involved in this case back then."
Gu Tong has an incredible mory; all the information points seem engraved in her mind, ready to be automatically integrated when needed.
"Yeah," Qiao Chenyi said with a helpless smile, "My old man and Gu Wangjue both suffered losses at their hands back then. Even now, just ntioning those bandits gets him all fired up."
Qiao Chenyi couldn’t help but recall his father sitting on a chair, tapping the table with his pipe, cursing the bandits—an image both amusing and exasperating.
"If they weren’t so old, they probably would have loved to jump into action themselves."
Gu Tong turned the steering wheel, driving the car into the Academy’s parking lot, guided all the way by Qiao Chenyi in the passenger seat.
"It’s just how it is; they’re in high positions now, practically the Princes protected by Longxing Country. Even the most reckless young punks wouldn’t let them personally engage."
Qiao Chenyi shook his head, fundantally denying the possibility of their participation, sothing both elders were well aware of.
If not for this, they wouldn’t have placed their hopes on the next generation.
"That’s why being a second-generation military kid isn’t all that great. We’re still expected to charge forward in the battles they lost."
Qiao Chenyi: "..."
Though he found Gu Tong’s words sowhat inappropriate, he also thought they were quite apt.
Indeed, only Gu Tong would dare say sothing like that.
"Park the car here; the operation area is not far from here, just about a three-minute walk!"
Perhaps out of habit, Qiao Chenyi narrated the route in such a way that anyone could understand it imdiately.
Gu Tong precisely followed his directions, parked the car in the parking lot, shifted gears, pulled the handbrake, and removed the key.
Her movents were extrely skillful, proficient enough to leave anyone in awe, as won drivers were uncommon at that ti, let alone ones so adept.
"No wonder those old guys are so keen on recruiting you; there’s a reason for it."
Qiao Chenyi admired Gu Tong’s prowess even more, thinking she was a true all-rounder, a prodigy that no ordinary female trainee could compare to.
The effort and energy required to master so many skills are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
"It’s just driving; lots of people can do it."
Gu Tong put the car keys in her pocket, thinking about how things developed in her past life. By then, female drivers on the road were nothing new; there were even many female truck drivers.
"It’s not the sa."
Qiao Chenyi smiled faintly but didn’t say anything more.
