Chapter 39: Only One Left
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Once Qin Feng had finished interrogating the two murderers, he left the cleanup work to be handled by his colleagues and returned to the conference room.
Once everyone was seated, Shen Qing commented, “Qin Feng, you’re really amazing. We caught two of the three murderers in one go, and all that’s left is the murderer who committed the first and second cases.”
Qin Feng smiled wryly and said, “Finding the remaining one is where it gets tough. Go and contact the people in charge of the Knowledge Forum. Try to dig up anything you can about this Immortal Darkness person, perhaps it’ll yield us some clues.”
Shen Qing said in high spirits, “Okay, I’ll do it right away.”
After all, there was nothing that made people happier than the actual development of the case.
“Qin Feng, you’re amazing.”
“Yeah, Qin Feng, you’ve made more progress in a day than we did in an entire month.”
“Qin Feng, we only have one murderer left to catch. How fast can you get?”
“Qin Feng, is this so-called ‘Immortal Darkness’ the first murderer?”
“Qin Feng, you’re truly an inspiration to us all. Why don’t you transfer to our department permanently? There’s no need to return to Ocean City’s Police Department.”
“Hahaha, that’s right, Qin Feng. Why don’t you stay here?”
Before Qin Feng could muster a response, he heard Qin Xiaohua’s voice coming from the door. He looked up and saw Qin Xiaohua pushing the door open.
“Chief!”
Upon spotting Qin Xiaohua, everyone quickly shot up from their seats.
“Hahaha, no need to stand up. I’m only here to visit the MVP who’s solved the final two cases.”
Qin Xiaohua smiled and waved at everyone, indicating that no one needed to stand up.
“Qin Feng, I heard that two cases have already been solved?”
Qin Xiaohua looked at Qin Feng and asked cheerfully.
“Yes, Gu Chao and Wei Wu have confessed to their crimes, and our colleagues have also found the corresponding evidence in their homes. The evidence is rock solid, they can’t escape. Better yet, we even got them to spill some clues regarding the first murderer. Our clue is a netizen who goes by the moniker of Immortal Darkness. I’ve just sent Shen Qing to dig up more information on him. Even if Immortal Darkness doesn’t turn out to be the first murderer, I believe that he should have close relations with the first murderer.
Qin Feng reported his progress to Qin Xiaohua.
“Not bad, not bad. The younger generation is awesome. Good job!”
Qin Xiaohua patted Qin Feng on the shoulder and said approvingly.
Qin Feng waved his hand in an attempt to deny the credit. “Chief Qin, don’t just praise me alone. The only reason that we could progress this quickly is because of everyone’s hard work. I dare not claim this credit all to myself.”
Qin Feng’s words instantly boosted everyone’s morale.
“Alright, stop being modest. I know my subordinates like the back of my hand, they’re careless and stubborn buffoons.”
The more Qin Feng spoke, the better impression he had left in Qin Xiaohua’s mind. When the others heard the bureau chief’s words, they chuckled, as they too, had agreed with the chief’s assessment.
“Qin Feng, I can’t bear to let a talent as great as yours return to Ocean City. Why don’t you just stay here instead? As for Chief Li’s complaints, just leave it all to me, I’ll deal with him personally!”
Qin Xiaohua suggested cheerfully. He truly felt that Qin Feng was an invaluable treasure and he wanted nothing more than to keep him in the Magic Capital Police Department.
“Chief Qin, you have many other budding talents under you. I doubt you have a need for me.”
Qin Feng was flattered by Qin Xiaohua’s words, but after thinking for a moment, he gave a wry smile and tactfully declined.
Although Qin Xiaohua’s department was better than the Ocean City’s be it in terms of facilities, staffing, and career progression, Mu Qianqian was waiting for him back in Ocean City. After working so hard for so long, Mu Qianqian was finally softening up to him, and Qin Feng refused to back off right at the very end. Therefore, despite all the benefits that he would possibly gain from Qin Xiaohua’s rare offer, Qin Feng rejected it.
Qin Xiaohua was really stunned. He did not expect Qin Feng to refuse him outright. After all, he had considered his offer to be rather tempting.
“Are you really not going to reconsider?”
Qin Xiaohua attempted to convince Qin Feng.
“Chief Qin, what if I visit you all frequently?”
Qin Feng expressed his meaning tactfully.
“Hahahaha, of course. You can come whenever you want. Our department welcomes you.”
Qin Xiaohua looked at Qin Feng and laughed out loud.
“Alright then, sorry for interrupting your discussion, I’ll take my leave now. Also, Qin Feng, if you ever need help with anything, just give me a call. My phone is always on.”
Qin Xiaohua handed his name card to Qin Feng.
“Thank you, Chief Qin. I understand.”
Qin Feng replied and put the card in his wallet together with the slip of paper with the mayor’s phone number.
Qin Feng had a good night’s sleep.
The next morning, Shen Qing approached Qin Feng and exclaimed happily, “Qin Feng, the people in charge of the Knowledge Forum have responded. Although they weren’t able to obtain any personal information on Immortal Darkness, they did manage to find the user’s last login location.”
“Great, where was it?” Qin Feng asked anxiously with a hint of joy on his face.
“I-It’s at Stone Ocean Primary School.” Shen Qing’s expression was slightly solemn as he spoke those words.
“What? A primary school! You’re joking, right?” Qin Feng was horrified upon learning this information.
“I also hope that I’m wrong, but I’ve repeatedly confirmed with the people-in-charge of the Knowledge Forum. There is no mistake. The last login location of Immortal Darkness is indeed in Stone Ocean Primary School.” Shen Qing answered while shaking his head.
“Alright, let’s head there right now. Call Yang Wei too while you’re at it.”
Qin Feng instructed with furrowed brows.
Shen Qing looked at Qin Feng and dared not say anything else. With a nod, he then went off to look for Yang Wei, informing him of their site visit.
Qin Feng sat on the chair and fell into deep thought. He had never expected the user who had provided the disturbing murder instructions to last log in from a primary school. The thought of such a sinister entity existing within a primary school sent chills down Qin Feng’s spine..
