Lu Miao, this strange genius, could be considered an extraordinary rarity, a once-in-a-century talent. It was unlikely that anyone could catch up to her level in their lifetime, even if they had several more years of experience.

After Captain Du finished expressing his disdain, he turned to Lu Miao with a smiling expression. “Lu Miao, would you be interested in becoming a technical consultant for our police force? I can submit an application to higher-ups to bring you on board as an external consultant. With your abilities, I believe it won’t take long for you to make significant breakthroughs. When the time comes, you can directly apply to become an official member of the force.”

“Our police station offers excellent benefits, and currently, there’s a shortage of technical personnel. Once you’re officially part of the team, your future will be limitless!”

Captain Du’s words were a mix of flattery and allure.

After all, having a tech genius like Lu Miao on board could greatly simplify their investigative work, and the police station’s crime-solving rate would soar.

Lu Miao raised her hand to her forehead. “Captain Du, I’m still a student.”

“Being a student is great! It’s an opportunity for you to consider attending the police academy in the future, which would be beneficial for your career development.” Captain Du became even more excited.

With a growing headache, Lu Miao was interrupted by a field officer who rushed into the room. “Captain Du, the driver who was taken to the hospital for examination and treatment has only suffered minor concussion and is back. Should we interrogate him now, or wait?”

Captain Du immediately stood up. “Take him to the interrogation room first; I’ll be there shortly.”

“Understood.” The officer quickly left the room.

Captain Du stood up and addressed Lu Miao. “Thank you for your technical assistance to the police force. We’ll do our best to uncover the truth as quickly as possible, and we’ll inform you as soon as we have any results.”

Lu Miao nodded, and Captain Du personally escorted her out. As they walked out of the lobby, they encountered a person hurrying in from outside.

Upon seeing Captain Du, the person quickly greeted him and then swiftly walked toward the direction of the office.

Lu Miao turned around and glanced at the person’s retreating figure before casually asking, “Who’s the person who just went in?”

“That’s our Second Division’s captain. Do you know him?” Captain Du asked with a curious expression.

Lu Miao shook her head. “No, I don’t know him. I was just curious since he seemed to be in a hurry.”

“That guy is quite mysterious. His files are classified, and even our police chief doesn’t know his background. He’s always on his own, mysterious and secretive. He’s solved quite a few tough cases. He’s cracked several cold cases that had accumulated over a decade in our department.”

“He’s only been in the force for three years, and he’s already been promoted to captain. Just like you, he’s a genius freak.”

Captain Du couldn’t help but sigh and then looked at Lu Miao with a wary expression. “Hold on, you’re not thinking of following him just because he’s handsome, are you?”

Lu Miao’s lips twitched. “Rest assured, I don’t currently have any plans to join the police station.”

Considering that she might have been deliberately targeted, Captain Du personally hailed a taxi for her at the entrance. After she got in, he even carefully checked the driver’s license, driving license, and identity card with a serious expression.

He then turned to the driver and said sternly, “I’ve recorded all your documents. Please make sure to safely take her home.”

The driver was so intimidated by this grand display that he mentally reviewed every single thing he had done in the past few decades. After confirming that he hadn’t engaged in any illegal activities, he nodded nervously. “Okay.”

Only then was Captain Du satisfied. He smiled at Lu Miao and gave her some final advice. “You don’t have to rush and make your decision regarding being our external consultant. Take your time to consider. If you encounter any problems on the way, don’t hesitate to call 110.”

Lu Miao nodded helplessly.

By the time she returned to Lingyue Manor, it was already past 8 in the evening.

Gu Shiyan, the workaholic, was probably still at the company working late and hadn’t returned. Unexpectedly, Gu Jinxi, who had been busy with her own affairs and hadn’t been seen for almost ten days, was sitting on the living room couch.

Seeing her return, Gu Jinxi nervously glanced at her and quickly got up. “Sister-in-law, you haven’t had dinner yet, right? Let me reheat the takeout for you.”

Only then did Lu Miao notice that the table in the dining room was set with untouched dishes. This guy had probably been waiting for her to come back and eat together.

“Let me do it.”

With Gu Shiyan’s culinary disasters in mind, Lu Miao couldn’t trust her younger brothers in the kitchen.

Gu Jinxi was well aware of his own cooking skills and didn’t refuse. She followed Lu Miao into the kitchen to help her out.

After reheating the dishes, the two sat at the dining table. Gu Jinxi occasionally stole glances at Lu Miao across from her. He tried to speak several times but only managed to twitch his lips, not saying anything.

Understanding what was on his mind, Lu Miao calmly finished her dinner before speaking up.

“The day after tomorrow is the day you’re participating in the car race, right?”

Gu Jinxi’s eyes lit up instantly. “Yes.”

He had thouzht that his sister-in-law would have forgotten bv now, but she actually remembered!

Lu Miao looked at him. “After practicing for so many days, how are your skills?”

“There’s absolutely no problem getting into the top three.” Gu Jinxi proudly patted his chest.

Lu Miao reached out and ruffled his hair. “I’ll take a day off to accompany you. Remember, I promised you a surprise. Get ready to receive it.”

“Great!” Gu Jinxi’s smile stretched from ear to ear.

Hehe, not only did his sister-in-law remember the day of his competition, but she also remembered the promise of a surprise. Hehe!

Where didn’t his sister-in-law like him? Those words from Lu Yinan must have been out of jealousy, deliberately said!

All the frustration he had bottled up for the past few days disappeared in an instant.

He immediately took out his phone, opened WeChat, and posted on his Moments: “Hehe, my sister-in-law is coming to accompany me at the competition and has a surprise for me too. Happy-”

“Hehe, sister-in-law, I’ll do the dishes.”

After saying that, he hummed a tune happily while collecting the dishes on the table. He walked into the kitchen with a cheerful step.

He resembled a lively puppy. If he had a tail, it would probably be wagging ecstatically by now.

As soon as Lu Miao set foot on the stairs, she heard a crashing sound from the kitchen, followed by the shattering of utensils.

She couldn’t help but raise her hand to her forehead. She knew she shouldn’t have trusted him!

The next day, after school, Lu Miao was about to go to the school cafeteria with Su MO and Shen Muhan.

The phone in her pocket suddenly rang, and she reached out to pick it up.

Captain Du’s voice came through the phone..”Lu Miao, we’ve found the mastermind behind yesterday’s car accident!”
