Chapter 1090: Who Wants to put Righteousness Before Family?

“What are you saying? Are you trying to imply something?” Miao Ying asked, confused. “What do you mean by a big event? You of all people should know that our family has big events practically every day.”

“Uhm, about that…” Zhao Yu said. “Think about it carefully. Around six years ago, did anything odd happen to your father? Uhm, maybe not just six years ago, maybe something even earlier?”

“Hey, Zhao Yu, what’s wrong with you?” Miao Ying asked. “Aren’t you supposed to be looking for the treasure? Why are you suddenly asking about my dad? Eh? No, that’s not right… why are you specifically asking about my dad six years ago? What’s on your mind?”

“Uhm, fine!” Zhao Yu understood Miao Ying’s urge to get to the bottom of things, so he didn’t want to hide why he was asking, so he told her directly. “It’s like this, we’ve suspected for a long time that the thief king Tao Xiang had an accomplice working from the shadows! This accomplice could be someone from inside the system, and is somebody in a high position…” Zhao Yu told Miao Ying everything they had deduced, not leaving out a single word. He was worried his father-in-law had been involved with Tao Xiang.

“You are way too talented! Hahaha!” Miao Ying began unexpectedly laughing after hearing his explanation. “My dear, you really are a godly detective! We haven’t even gotten engaged and you’re already targeting your father-in-law?”

“Are you joking?” Zhao Yu explained in a hurry. “You still don’t know me? I am just worried. If I was really suspicious of him would I still tell you, his daughter!”

“Okay!” Miao Ying laughed. “In that case, I have a faster way to solve this problem! Do you want to hear it?”

“Oh? How?” Zhao Yu asked.

“I will call my dad and tell him about your suspicions!” Miao Ying said quickly. “If he sends somebody to silence you, that shows that he was indeed involved with Tao Xiang. If not, then it shows that there’s nothing there. How about that for an idea?”

“Eh?” Zhao Yu could tell Miao Ying was angry and tried to calm her down. “Miaomiao don’t be mad! Let’s be professional here, okay?”

“Yeah sure! Would you be angry if I suspected your parents?” Miao Ying asked, pouting. “Zhao Yu, I beg you to stop letting your imagination run wild, okay? Do you think such a thing is possible? Just because of your lame psychological profile, you think my dad had been Tao Xiang’s accomplice? I admit that maybe my father did participate in the whole Li Jing situation, but I believe that he did so with our safety in mind. Don’t forget, we are getting engaged in June, he doesn’t want us to be involved in a national-level case. Isn’t that understandable?”

“Missy, I was just asking! You should know how I am!” Zhao Yu consoled. “If I suspected my mom and dad of something, I would also find out the truth! I beg you! I can only ask you this because I’m close to you. Right now, I don’t have much time left. With only two months, I don’t want to let any possibility slip by!”

“Fine, fine, fine…” Miao Ying said. “Then I’ll be more professional. Let me think about it, six years ago… hmm, six years ago… nothing big happened,” Miao Ying recalled. “But my dad has always been very secretive, so I don’t know everything that happened either! How about I ask him personally?”

“Uhm, that…” Zhao Yu felt like he had made the wrong move and began to regret involving Miao Ying.

“It’s okay darling, I know what you mean! You don’t know how much I wish my dad was Tao Xiang’s accomplice!” she told him.

“Uhm, what?!” Zhao Yu was stunned.

“Yeah!” Miao Ying sighed. “If my father had conspired with Tao Xiang then wouldn’t this whole case be simpler? All we would need to do is arrest my dad, then force him to confess. We could beat him up until he told us the truth!”

“Uhm…” Zhao Yu was beginning to become confused and felt like he was no longer the only one to put justice above his family.

“But it’s a pity, the probability of something like that happening is too small!” Miao Ying said confidently. “However, what you said made me think of something. If Tao Xiang’s accomplice really does exist, and if it really is somebody from inside the system, then we wouldn’t be able to investigate this with the ability of our Special Investigations Team alone! The only person who can help us, in that case, would be my dad!” Miao Ying said seriously. “How about this, if you could get the suspect’s profile out, then my father can go find him and see if anyone in the Secret Services department, or any department for that matter, meets that description!”

“Good idea… but you definitely cannot tell him about me suspecting him!” Zhao Yu said, nodding.

“It doesn’t matter! I know my father the best! If he knew his future son-in-law suspected him, he’d be really happy!” Miao Ying said, imagining the scenario.

“Uhm…” Zhao Yu swallowed. He started to seriously consider what Miao Ying meant. His father-in-law, Miao Kun… just what sort of temper did he have?

“My dear, I will send Wu Xiumin over tomorrow! Let her help you profile the suspect better!” Miao Ying said. “But we cannot pin all our hopes on this alone. If we want to find the murderer and the treasure, there’s a lot we have to work on!”

“Ah, to be able to work on a Secret Services department case and find a national treasure… how awesome! I’m getting excited just thinking about it!” Miao Ying said, her adrenaline pumping. “I want to fly over immediately and solve the case with you! Darling, for as long as I’ve known you, there’s nothing that has eluded you before, so you have to continue your legendary streak. Even with this!”

“Uhm…” Zhao Yu frowned, grumbling in a low voice. “Why do I feel like something is not right? I suspect Li Jing is meddling in my affairs, are you also a part of it? No wonder you got me to fight with her right way!”

“That’s enough out of you! After suspecting your father-in-law, now you suspect your fiancée? Detective Zhao, I think it’s time for you to see a doctor!” Miao Ying reprimanded him. “Where did you get all these conspiracy theories from?!”

“Just kidding, just kidding…” Zhao Yu replied. “But I am not as optimistic and excited as you. You probably don’t feel it but as soon as this case started, it’s been filled with strangeness! I feel, if we can find who murdered the experts, that would be a good start! Regarding the treasure… uhm…”

“Right, speaking about the murderers, I questioned Cheng Lingfei again regarding the Pitidebin,” Miao Ying said. “She gave me a few leads. We can probably try those! If we can find the source of the drugs that could be the key to unlock the mystery behind the murder of the experts!”

“Okay, then can you get in direct contact with Chen Ganshi?” Zhao Yu asked. “Let the Criminal Investigation Office investigate this!”

“I feel…” Miao Ying began. “Rather than giving this to the Criminal Investigation Department, why not let Secret Services handle it? They’re more professional!”

“Okay,” Zhao Yu nodded. “Can you indicate this in the report? The superiors will approve it if it’s related to national affairs!”

“Yeah!” Miao Ying agreed. “Then that’s it for today. Wait for me, darling! I will hurry up and finish things on my end, then reunite with you! Please don’t crack the case before I get there, leave something for me…”

“Alright!” Zhao Yu smiled and hung up the call. Ugh! After the phone call ended, Zhao Yu’s smile slowly stiffened up. Even though Miao Ying seemed to be in a good mood, Zhao Yu felt an unprecedented amount of stress. Could this case be solved? Could the treasure be found?

System boss… Zhao Yu thought, turning his attention to the system interface. Whether or not I can solve this case on time is up to you! Open! he commanded in his mind. As Zhao Yu’s mind moved, a banner popped out. At the center of the system was two large words – Zhen Kan.

God d*mn it! he thought. Zhao Yu couldn’t help but sigh after seeing the result. Dear system boss, why do you always screw up at the last minute?
