Blessed To Have Each Other In This Life - Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Best Friend

Mu Zi was truly furious!

The pink Hummer might not amount to anything among the many luxury cars in the Mu family, but it was the very first car in her life that she had bought after becoming a prosecutor!

Her first car!

The most precious thing about it was the unique hand-painted decals on the car!

She once won a very challenging case. The prosecuting party was a well-known designer, and to express his gratitude to her, he had drawn a set of decals for her little cutie!

That designer’s work was highly sought after among the upper class, and every painting could fetch sky-high prices at auctions!

Therefore, both the car and the decals on it were of great significance to Mu Zi! They were priceless!

Mu Zi stood at the iron gate and looked at the car going further in the distance, and felt a wave of unholy anger!

—One should never die too early because one would never know how their precious belongings would get trampled over by others.

As Mu Zi personally saw her beloved car getting defiled, her expression was dark and gloomy all the way.

When the taxi had reached Hanguang Street and the driver told her that they had arrived at their destination, Mu Zi reluctantly put away her bad mood.

She could not be depressed.

She still had a lot of things to do. She could not be influenced by these little emotions.

Hanguang Street was very wide, and there were no large shopping malls or supermarkets.

The most prominent building was the Green River City police station. There were also gas stations, some administrative buildings, and some small merchants scattered around.

Mu Zi stood outside the police station. Her heart surged at the familiar scenery around her.

Everything looked the same.

Mu Zening had once complained that she was too devoted to her work and joked that the prosecutor’s office was her husband’s family while the police station was her maiden family. The Mu residence where she stayed at was just a hotel between the two.

Mu Zi made a phone call in a public telephone booth.

Soon, a woman answered the phone. “Hello, who’s speaking?”

The hoarse voice was slightly impatient.

They had just met recently, but because she had an encounter with death, hearing this voice again suddenly made Mu Zi’s heart clench! Her hand could not help but grip the phone tighter.

“Hello! Who’s speaking?” The woman’s voice grew even more impatient and slightly fiery.

“Officer Jiang.” Mu Zi silently took a deep breath and calmed her emotions. “I have some clues about Ms. Su Zi’s accidental death.”

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.

In an instant, the other party suddenly issued a barrage of questions!—

“Was Su Zi killed? Who are you? How do you know about this?!”

Mu Zi looked at the beef noodle restaurant not far away. Her voice was calm and quiet. “Let’s meet up and talk. I’ll wait for you at the noodle restaurant outside the police station. Come alone.”

Then, she hung up the phone but maintained her current posture, as if she was still on a call.

Occasionally, she glanced at the gate of the police station. Her eyes were as clear as a pool.

Before long, a tall woman hurried out from the gate. She had flaming red lips, short hair, and was wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt with jeans. There was very neutral makeup applied to her beautiful face.

This woman was Jiang Ci.

Jiang Ci was the leader of the criminal investigation team. She hated evil, and she ranked first in the number of cases solved. At the same time, her personality was extremely fierce. Everyone in the Green River City police station, from the police chief to the janitor aunty, knew who she was.

Su Zi and Jiang Ci were the best partners, and they were also best friends.

Jiang Ci aggressively rushed into the beef noodle restaurant.

Mu Zi could not help but sigh in relief after seeing that familiar figure. Her lips curled upwards.

As long as Jiang Ci helped her, things would become much easier.

…

Mu Zi walked into the noodle restaurant, but Jiang Ci’s eyes swept over her without stopping.

—The person providing the clues could not be a sixteen-year-old child.

Mu Zi did not mind. She picked a seat by the window and said to the waiter, “Two bowls of beef noodles. One bowl non-spicy, and the other bowl without onions.”

Then, she smiled at Jiang Ci and said, “As well as a can of beer, right?”

Jiang Ci’s expression suddenly changed. “The one who called was you?!”
