Chapter 166 - Collaborative Investigation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He Feng shared his thoughts with Nie Jun.

Nie Jun was silent for a while before he said, “Perhaps you young ones would have better ideas.”

Although Nie Jun had some differing opinions in his heart, based on the current situation, it was indeed He Feng and Fang Ya’s idea that was more feasible.

After all, blindly attacking might backfire and even raise the other party’s guard.

If he first let down his guard, the other party might think that he was vulnerable and easily exploited.

He Feng knew Nie Jun was unwilling, but now it seemed that there was indeed no better way.

Once he made up his mind, He Feng ran to the bureau chief to apply for official permission to investigate Wu Wei’s case.

Naturally, the bureau chief did not agree. After all, He Feng and Wu Wei were loosely related.

However, the bureau chief still gave He Feng the authority to collaborate with the current investigative team.

After receiving the authority, the first thing He Feng did was to look for Huang Rui, the captain of the second team.

Huang Rui was also a talent in his own right. Ever since he joined the police force, he had always regarded He Feng as a thorn in his side.

This was because He Feng had come from the army and was unlike those from the police academy.

Huang Rui had graduated from the regular police academy and looked down on these so-called lofty soldiers.

The two of them each led a team of their own, and they usually stayed out of each other’s way.

However, He Feng was good at solving cases, and he also possessed strong leadership skills. He was about to outshine Huang Rui.

Huang Rui, who had always aspired to be a government official, could not possibly withstand such a blow.

Although Huang Rui could not make things difficult for He Feng, he did not offer much help either.

This time, with Wu Wei’s incident, Huang Rui felt that He Feng had to be hiding something.

He Feng’s brother-in-law had been arrested as a suspect in a murder case. This was a good opportunity for Huang Rui to take down He Feng.

However, Huang Rui was in no hurry to succeed. Instead, he was looking for an opportunity to completely defeat He Feng in one fell swoop.

He Feng found Huang Rui and slammed the documents on his desk. “Can I look into the case now?”

“No!” Huang Rui said without even looking at the document.

“Why not? The director has already approved it!” He Feng asked impatiently.

“Everyone in the Bureau knows your relationship with Wu Wei.” Huang Rui snorted.

“The bureau chief must have gotten fed up with your pestering, so he caved in.” Huang Rui looked at He Feng with a stern face.

“However, you are only allowed to assist in the investigation, and this does not give you the authority to get nose-deep into the intricacies of the investigation,” Huang Rui recited to him.

“In other words, if I ask you to do something, you do it.” Huang Rui concluded without holding back.

Upon hearing Huang Rui’s words, He Feng’s expression changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth.

Usually, He Feng would turn a blind eye to what Huang Rui did and not care about it.

But now, this guy was clearly antagonizing him. This matter…

He Feng stared at Huang Rui and asked coldly again, “You don’t want me to participate in the investigation?”

“No!” Huang Rui said without flinching.

He Feng nodded. “Okay! In that case, I will send someone to investigate. The results of the investigation will be shared with you.”

“I hope that during this period, you can guarantee that Wu Wei would not suffer any mishaps.” He Feng stared at Huang Rui.

Huang Rui sneered. “What? Are you still afraid that people would be in danger within the walls of a police station?

“Let me tell you this, he is a murder suspect. We would treat him as we should!” Huang Rui revealed a cruel smile.

He Feng was very clear about the interrogation methods of team two.

Even a hardened soldier like him could lose his mind.

He Feng had never been ashamed to stand out like a nail, but he had no way to interfere in the matters of team two..
