“Now, let’s talk about your findings, Qiqi.”


  “We interviewed the families of the eight victims and conducted a comprehensive social search on them, but we didn’t find any useful information. The only impression these victims’ relatives and friends had of the deceased was that they were addicted to the Internet. However, because surfing the internet is actually a very private matter, they didn’t know what the deceased did on the Internet.” Mu Qiqi gave a simple summary.

  “At the same time, we also found a very strange point. The computers of the eight victims have either been damaged or lost due to various reasons.” The other teams continued. After listening, Tang Yan turned his gaze to the others.

  “According to the information provided by Captain Tang, we have found out about a forum called The Dark Abyss. However, accessing this forum requires extremely strict conditions. Aside from the fact that entry to the website is hard to find as the link address varies, members have to pay a deposit of 100,000 yuan according to the requirements before they can officially join it.

  “We haven’t been able to get in yet, so we haven’t been able to see the content yet.”


  After hearing this, Officer Gao, who was sitting in her seat, laughed. “This is a typical cybercrime. It should be under the jurisdiction of our department. We really shouldn’t let everyone run around like this for nothing.”


  “Officer Gao, what are your thoughts?”


  “I can give you a detailed explanation now, but I don’t want any colleagues who are not officially part of the team present. After all, they are not from the police station. If the news gets out, who will bear the responsibility?”


  No matter what was said before, she still felt that Mu Qiqi and Feng Shanshan were not part of the team.

  Therefore, the two of them stood up after hearing her words.

  “Captain Tang, we’ll go to the forensics laboratory first.”


  Tang Yan glanced at the other party and nodded. “How about this? Since Officer Gao said that this case is a cybercrime and doesn’t belong to our special investigations team, I’ll go get the chief now and hand the case over to Officer Gao.”


  Officer Gao’s expression changed for the worse again because she really didn’t expect Tang Yan to protect the two interns that much.

  Perhaps the chief had heard that the two of them had an argument, so he specially came out of the office and said to Tang Yan, “Tang Yan, if you want to believe in Officer Gao’s professionalism, then listen to her arrangements. Shanshan and Qiqi, please leave for now.”


  “Since the chief has spoken, of course I will do as he says. However, I also ask the chief to immediately go and handle the transfer of the case. Since cybercrime is not under our jurisdiction, then we should do what we should do. There is no need to hold the meeting……”


  “Officer Gao came all the way here. Is this how you treat your guests? Don’t throw a tantrum.”


  Tang Yan was not afraid of the chief, but Feng Shanshan was.

  “Mu Qiqi, let’s go.”


  Mu Qiqi nodded and they walked out of the meeting room, heading to the forensics laboratory.

  “They are two sensible children after all.” Seeing that Officer Gao was satisfied, the chief walked to Tang Yan and said, “Don’t be so stubborn. Let’s hold a meeting and try to solve the case as soon as possible.”


  Tang Yan didn’t say anything else. He just made a welcoming gesture and allowed Officer Gao to explain what the cybercrime was……

  “Is that woman targeting you or me?” Sitting at the morgue, the two of them couldn’t help but gossip.

  “I’m guessing it’s both of us. After all, she is an expert, and we are just interns.” Mu Qiqi shrugged. “However, Captain Tang has always been willing to sacrifice everything for the case. What’s wrong today? He seems to want to fight that high-ranking police officer to the end.”


  “How would I know what’s wrong with him?” Feng Shanshan did not think much of it. At that moment, she did not think that Tang Yan was doing it for her.

  “You haven’t updated us about Zhongteng’s situation just now.”


  “They don’t like us now. What if we tell them about Zhongteng and someone uses it as some sort of clue?” Mu Qiqi snorted. “Moreover, it is just my guess. There’s no real evidence.”


  “You’re right.” The two of them waited in the forensics laboratory. However, not long after, the professor returned to the laboratory somewhat helplessly.

  “How was it, Professor?”


  “Only information analysts can keep up with what that high-ranking police officer said. How can people like us who don’t understand computers understand? I think that Tang Yan is going to have a headache,” the professor explained.

  “So, he went to the director’s office again and requested to transfer the case. This really doesn’t fit that kid’s personality. In the past, if he met someone like this, he would definitely go all out and learn those things that he doesn’t understand. This time, for some reason, he isn’t enthusiastic at all.”


  “Is it possible that he’s taking revenge on the director? Look, when the first four victims committed suicide, the director didn’t allow him to investigate the case. Now that the situation has become serious, he’s in a hurry to let Captain Tang solve the case within a time limit.” Mu Qiqi thought of this possibility.

  “Who knows what he’s thinking.”


  Although Mu Qiqi also wanted to solve the case, she wanted to hear that this matter had nothing to do with Zhongteng.

  Therefore, no matter what Tang Yan decided, she would tell Tang Yan about her findings in private.

  The few of them argued in the director’s office until their faces turned red.

  In the end, the director told Tang Yan to calm down for a bit before he would give him an answer.

  Feng Shanshan and Mu Qiqi did not know what happened in the office. The two of them could only pack their things. After all, they were interns. Since there was nothing for them to do, they naturally had to go home after work.

  However, when they went to the bathroom, Feng Shanshan saw Officer Gao touching up her makeup in the bathroom.

  Although she was not happy, she still greeted her respectfully, “Officer Gao.”


  After combing her hair, she turned around and looked at Feng Shanshan. “You and the other child really admire Tang Yan, don’t you?”


  “Officer Gao, you must have heard that Mu Qiqi is Shengxiao’s woman, right?” Feng Shanshan said directly.

  “What about you?”


  Feng Shanshan did not answer Officer Gao’s question, and the other party smiled. “I’ve known Tang Yan since I was in the police academy. I’ve been thinking about him for so many years because I think men should be like him. If I count it this way, it’s been almost ten years.”


  “Officer Gao, wouldn’t it be strange for an intern like me to say anything about this?”


  “An intern will become an official sooner or later, and you guys have always been by his side. It’s hard to guarantee that you won’t fall in love with him over time. I just came to give you guys a heads-up. Tang Yan is the man that I like.”


  Feng Shanshan smiled and walked to the sink. She slowly washed her hands before answering Officer Gao, “What a pity, Officer Gao. You’re still too late.”


  “You’ve known Tang Yan for ten years, but he’s in bed with me at night.”


  After saying that, Feng Shanshan pushed open the bathroom door and left.
