Chapter 458 Clue!
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Xiao Bing was not very angry after he ended his call. He had met so many well-matched foes all these years. Since Lu Fan had initiated the first strike, Xiao Bing decided to counterstrike.
Within one month he needed to go to the Dragon Gate to settle the matters there. Before that, he must deal with this problem that might harm Ye Xiaoxi.
Xiao Bing called Jiang Wanting and asked her if she had found anything new. She sounded upset on the phone, “The cameras around the warehouse were destroyed, which made it impossible for us to identify the arsonist. The only thing we are sure about is that this is definitely an act of arson. If it had not been discovered in time by the people inside, they would have been burned alive. If the arsonist is caught, he will be in prison for at least dozens of years.”
Xiao Bing said with chagrin, “It’s useless if we can’t arrest the felon. The cameras near the warehouse were destroyed. But what about the cameras that are farther away from the warehouse? The warehouse is in a deserted area. I suppose only few cars will come by that place.”
Jiang Wanting said, “We are currently investigating it, according to the clues. We might get some progress a few days later.”
Xiao Bing asked, “Can I see the footage of the freeway?”
Jiang Wanting sounded awkward, “I don’t think so. After all, you are not a policeman.”
Xiao Bing knew it would make things difficult for Jiang Wanting. According to the rules, Jiang Wanting was not supposed to allow Xiao Bing to see the footage or get him involved in this case. But Xiao Bing wanted to have a try, since Jiang Wanting was his friend.
Xiao Bing knew that Jiang Wanting had always admired him mainly because of the might he showed, and the help he offered to the police. Besides, Xiao Bing was once a soldier. So Jiang Wanting was fond of him, which made it easier for him to ask for her help.
As a saying goes, the more friends you have, the more help you will get.
Xiao Bing said, “Wanting, I believe that you know my capabilities. I resigned from the special force in this country. I cannot tell you which special force I once served in. But it is one of best. I believe that you’re better than me in some areas. But I’m also better than you in some aspects. Maybe you might have missed something during the investigation. Efficiency is necessary when you’re breaking a case. Let me see the footage if you trust me.”
Jiang Wanting fell silent. She believed in Xiao Bing’s abilities. But Xiao Bing’s girlfriend, Yezi, was involved in this case. Xiao Bing should not be a part in it, according to the rules. But she found it hard to refuse him, after he said those words.
Xiao Bing continued, “I will owe you a favor if you agree. I know the rules. But I am asking you for help as your friend. And I hope I can help you…”
Jiang Wanting sighed and smiled bitterly, “You are making it difficult for me…”
“So do you agree?”“Alas, it seemed that I cannot refuse. Come… But I did not discover anything from the footage. Perhaps you can.”
Xiao Bing said with excitement, “Great. Thanks. I’ll come later.”
Xiao Bing then hung up and drove toward the Criminal Police Brigade. The most exciting thing for Xiao Bing was to be the captain of his fate. Now Xiao Bing’s primary task was to help Yezi, and his second priority was to win the game he was playing with Lu Fan.
After Xiao Bing arrived at the Criminal Police Brigade, he walked directly into Jiang Wanting’s office. Jiang Wanting managed a wry smile when she saw Xiao Bing, “I literally don’t know what to do with you, sometimes. I’ll be in trouble if someone tells this to my boss.”
Xiao Bing grinned, “You are scared of this?”
Xiao Bing said this for a reason. Ever since he had met this girl, he knew that she dared to offend the powerful to break a case. Though she was a woman, she was no less fiercer than any man. She allowed Xiao Bing to see the footage because Xiao Bing was her friend, and she wanted to solve the case as soon as possible. She hoped that Xiao Bing could find something in the footage, even if it seemed unimportant. So she did not care about the rules.
Jiang Wanting glared at Xiao Bing and said, “I did not expect you to know me so well. Come with me. The footage is stored in that place.”
Then Jiang Wanting walked out of the room with Xiao Bing trailing behind. While she was at the door, she suddenly came to an abrupt halt, which made Xiao Bing bump into her and against a part of her bouncy hips. The two almost fell to the ground. Xiao Bing pinned the girl to the wall and his body was pressed against hers. That part of his body hardened.
“Damn, damn, damn… I didn’t mean to. Why didn’t you tell me that you were stopping? I was absent-minded. It’s so awkward now.”
“Don’t blame me for the erection. No man can still be calm when they see you in a police uniform. Especially those two long legs. One look at them and any man will lust after you.”
“I’m also a man. It’s normal for me to have an erection if I feel something. I should see a doctor if I can’t…”
Jiang Wanting turned around instantly and without any warning, she suddenly delivered a strike with her knees. Xiao Bing dodged in time, otherwise, he might be impotent for the rest of his life.
Looking at Jiang Wanting’s angry eyes, Xiao Bing flailed and said in all haste, “You misunderstood me.”
Blushing, Jiang Wanting pointed at the bulge between Xiao Bing’s legs and said hotly, “You call this a misunderstanding?”
Xiao Bing said awkwardly, “This is just a normal reaction… Listen to me. It proves that you are very attractive. If I did not feel anything while I was so close to you, then you are not appealing to other men. The truth is that you are very attractive.”
Though Jiang Wanting still seemed angry, she knew she had misunderstood him. She just wanted to feel less awkward. Her anger seemed mitigated after she heard Xiao Bing’s words.
Xiao Bing grinned, “And it proves that I’m a healthy man.”
Jiang Wanting snorted and cursed, “Shameless.”
Then she turned around. Xiao Bing could not help keeping his eyes on Jiang Wanting’s round hips and slim legs. In truth, Xiao Bing had many girls that were more beautiful than her, like Ye Xinyi or Princess Nami. But her legs were perfect. Most men would even be willing to die for her legs.
It took Xiao Bing a lot to look away. He sighed inwardly about his amorousness. This woman was not like the girls who were willing to have a one night stand with him. Besides, Yezi was waiting for him at home faithfully.
Xiao Bing loved to take advantage of others. But he knew that sometimes he needed to stop.
Xiao Bing had an awkward smile, “Well… Let’s see the footage.”
“Okay. Come with me.”
Xiao Bing then followed the girl and concentrated to avoid the same thing happening again. A certain part of his body softened. He would feel ashamed if anyone saw him like that.
Jiang Wanting led Xiao Bing to a room. After she walked in, Jiang Wanting turned on the big screen hanging on the wall and sat on a chair, with a remote control in her hands. After what had happened just now, the two felt a little uncomfortable, in the room. But they were both very enthusiastic about their work. Soon they both focused their attention on the screen.
Then Jiang Tingting played the footage.
Jiang Wanting, “According to the report from our technicians, the fire was ignited approximately at 2030hrs. There were 15 cars driving toward the warehouse, three hours before the fire. Ten of them were private cars and the rest are taxis. But we don’t know which car passed by the warehouse. But eight of them can be excluded, according to the footage, because they appeared in another place that was far from the warehouse, when it was on fire. There were 5 cars coming back from the direction of the warehouse after 2030hrs. Five of them are taxis.
“There are nine cars we need to investigate. But all of them might not have passed the warehouse at all. We can’t be sure which cars stopped there. I have asked others to check the plate numbers. Several of them have given their statements here. But we don’t have any proof of the arsonist now. Maybe you can find something.”
Jiang Wanting was back to her usual serious self when talking about work, and it was as if nothing had happened just now. Xiao Bing really admired this dedicated policewoman.
Xiao Bing began watching the footage seriously. Xiao Bing asked Jiang Wanting to rewind many times at certain key places. After it was played one time, Xiao Bing asked her to play it again. Three hours later, Xiao Bing suddenly stood up. H pointed at the screen and said with his eyes gleaming, “Halt the footage at 7:45 pm, you need to arrest the driver of the car with the plate number of X2X42!”
