"First time on a motorcycle? Why so tense?" Lu Zhiwei laughed loudly.
"Do you take people out every day?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"Not really, but I did give a ride to a few dummies who forgot their admission tickets recently. They wanted to hug me, but I kicked them out. Did they think they could just hug me? It was good enough that I used my spiritual power to drag them along!" Lu Zhiwei hummed and hawed.
Xiang Beifei: "..."
He wondered if he was considered to be hugging her now.
Lu Zhiwei didn't seem to care how Xiang Beifei placed his hands. She rode very fast, her hair fluttering wildly in front of her eyes.
Two months ago, she had short hair, but now she had suddenly grown it long, and it fluttered so much that Xiang Beifei's helmet made a clattering sound.
He tried using "Abruptly Stop," and the fluttering hair immediately fixed itself in midair. This ability was quite useful.
Lu Zhiwei seemed unaware as she turned the motorcycle towards the highway outside the city. Soon, the urban area was far behind them, and they sped along the highway with fewer and fewer cars in sight.
About half an hour later, they arrived at yesterday's crime scene, where the road had already been cordoned off with police tape.
Law enforcement officers were examining the scene. On the road, a sedan had been smashed into a heap of scrap metal, charred black and slightly smoking, with pieces of its bumper scattered all around—a gruesome sight.
Drones flew back and forth above, and dense woods bordered the highway on both sides. The drones navigated through the trees, searching extensively across the area.
"Brother Ma, any progress?"
Lu Zhiwei parked the motorcycle on the side of the road, took off her helmet, and asked Ma Feiguang, who was nearby.
"Xiao Wei, you're here!"
Ma Feiguang and Xiao Cao looked at each other and shook their heads slightly, but Xiao Cao said, "Captain Lu also mentioned a strange fluctuation earlier; he felt it!"
Lu Hong was an S-level Investigation System, with very strong perception abilities.
Lu Zhiwei was taking notes rapidly on the side, recording every move Xiang Beifei made.
Then she looked up seriously, "I felt it too."
Although Lu Zhiwei's deductive abilities were somewhat poor, she was part of the Super Police System and also had strong perception abilities.
Ma Feiguang and Xiao Cao's systems weren't investigative, so their perceptual abilities weren't as strong as those of Xiang Beifei and Lu Zhiwei.
"What are you all doing standing around here? Don't you have your own work to do?"
Lu Hong emerged from the woods, saw everyone gathered, and immediately shouted.
"Captain Lu, we were just learning how the Silhouette Detective solves cases! Last time, he pinpointed the perpetrator with just one look," Xiao Cao explained sheepishly.
"Last time was last time. Do you think the guy who hit someone would still be around this time? Don't crowd around here, go do your work," Lu Hong said sternly.
Ma Feiguang and the others could only disperse grudgingly and attend to their own tasks.
Although Lu Hong had a stern face, seeing his daughter bring Xiang Beifei here, he soon revealed a smile: "Beifei, I heard you were admitted to Liangzhou University. Xiao Wei mentioned it to me, and I haven't had the chance to congratulate you yet!"
"Congratulations to Uncle Lu as well," Xiang Beifei said.
"Haha, you noticed that?"
Lu Hong laughed and was quite grateful to Xiang Beifei. His feedback on the last case of Rapid Flame had earned him an advanced pill, and now his abilities had reached the middle stage of Meridian Opening!
After a while, he sized up Xiang Beifei again: "Impressive, I feel like I can see through you even less these days."
Lu Zhiwei said, "He's been studying these last few days with an old security guard from our school. That security guard seems very powerful. Last time, for Beifei's sake, he even dared to scold Yuchi Shen. I had no idea before!"
