Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 660 - 663: The Patrol Bureau
"Er Gou, don’t be in such a rush," Lu Xiaoyu said with a smile. "Let’s eat first. It won’t be too late to talk after dinner!"
After saying this, Lu Xiaoyu began to take out the dishes one by one. Seeing this, Feng Chunling and Yang Mei immediately stepped forward to help. Thanks to the efforts of the three, the table was soon filled with dishes. The four of them then sat down. The atmosphere among them was no longer as tense as before and had become much more relaxed.
This let Liu Ergou rest assured.
To tell the truth, he was somewhat worried. He feared that Feng Chunling and Yang Mei would remain restrained because of Lu Xiaoyu’s family background. If that were the case, it would undoubtedly be a significant problem in the future. But looking at them now, it seemed he had been overthinking.
With this thought, Liu Ergou stopped worrying and sat down to eat with the three women.
The dinner took an incredibly long time. A meal that could have been finished in half an hour was dragged out to an hour and a half by Liu Ergou. Moreover, during the meal, the dining table was filled with constant shrieks of delight.
Finally, the meal was over.
Just as Liu Ergou was about to make his move on the three women, his mobile phone suddenly rang. Looking at his phone, Liu Ergou raised an eyebrow and picked it up. He found that Han Jia Jia was the one calling him.
Without a second thought, Liu Ergou answered the call.
After the call connected, Liu Ergou spoke first. "Jia Jia, don’t rush me. I’ve already brought Feng Chunling to the city."
"We’ll go to the police station to find you tomorrow, so don’t worry. Just put your mind at ease!"
However, Han Jia Jia on the other end of the line hesitated before saying, "Er Gou..."
"It’s not about that. I’m calling you because of something else. Um, do you have time right now? Could you come out for a bit?"
"I’ll treat you to a meal. How about the place we went to last time?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Ergou immediately realized what was going on. Han Jia Jia clearly had ulterior motives. Although she said she was treating him to a meal, she probably needed something from him.
After thinking for a moment, Liu Ergou tentatively said, "Ah, well, I’ve just finished eating, so I’m not very hungry."
"How about this? Whatever it is, we can talk about it tomorrow. You can treat me to a meal then."
"I think tomorrow would be best. We have to meet anyway, so let’s just do it tomorrow!"
As soon as he said this, Han Jia Jia immediately refused.
"Don’t be like that, Er Gou. Please, just come out today? Just for a little while, okay?"
Hearing Han Jia Jia’s refusal, Liu Ergou’s lips curled up in a slight smile, and he cut straight to the chase.
"Alright, Jia Jia."
"Stop playing games. Do you need something from me? If you do, just say it, and I’ll be right there."
"If you just want to treat me to a meal, then we can talk about it tomorrow!"
Hearing this, Han Jia Jia knew that Liu Ergou had already seen through her intentions, so she stopped trying to hide it.
"It’s true that I need you for something. Er Gou, could you please come out?"
This time, Liu Ergou didn’t refuse but nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I get it."
"Let’s go to that restaurant from last time, then. I can get there in about half an hour."
Han Jia Jia replied, "I’m at the restaurant right now. Just come find me in the private room we used last time!"
Liu Ergou didn’t say anything more and just hung up the phone. He then prepared to explain the situation to the three women.
But before Liu Ergou could speak, Lu Xiaoyu preempted him, "Er Gou, I heard your whole conversation with Officer Han."
"If you have something to do, go ahead. The three of us will wait for you!"
Feng Chunling and Yang Mei nodded vigorously in agreement. Seeing this, Liu Ergou no longer had any worries holding him back. He left the house, got into his car, and headed straight for the restaurant.
Soon, Liu Ergou arrived at the restaurant’s private room and sat down. Looking at Han Jia Jia in front of him, he got straight to the point.
"Alright, Jia Jia, I’m here. Go ahead and tell me what’s up."
"I really don’t get you. Why couldn’t you say it on the phone? Why did you have to meet in person!"
Hearing Liu Ergou’s complaint, a rare blush appeared on Han Jia Jia’s pretty face. She then explained, "The thing is, this matter is quite troublesome. It’s too complicated to explain clearly over the phone, so I had to meet you in person to explain."
Hearing this, Er Gou just uttered an "Oh," and then fell silent.
Seeing this, Han Jia Jia thought that Liu Ergou was unwilling to help her. She immediately pouted, looking unhappy. In her view, Liu Ergou was being a little unreasonable. If he wasn’t going to help, he should have just said so. There was no need to be so dismissive with a simple ’Oh.’
But in reality, Han Jia Jia had misunderstood. Liu Ergou simply meant for her to continue, that he was listening.
Looking at Liu Ergou, Han Jia Jia took a deep breath and said, "It’s like this: a lot of cases have been happening in our city recently—murders, disappearances, basically all sorts of crimes."
Hearing this, Liu Ergou couldn’t help but interrupt her. "Hey! Jia Jia, wait a second!"
Han Jia Jia looked at Liu Ergou, puzzled.
Liu Ergou then said, "Something doesn’t sound right to me. If crimes are happening, isn’t that a matter for the police?"
"What do you need me for? I’m not a cop!"
"You can’t expect me to enroll in the police academy now and then come work for you, can you?"
"Or maybe you want me to be an auxiliary officer? That’s impossible. I’m very busy!"
Looking at the puzzled Liu Ergou, Han Jia Jia rolled her eyes.
"Could you please let me finish? What’s the rush!" Han Jia Jia said irritably.
"Listen to me. Wait until I’m done before you ask questions! No problem, right?"
Liu Ergou immediately indicated that he had no problem with that.
Han Jia Jia continued, "After investigation, these cases were found to be the work of Ancient Martial Artists, so they are now beyond the scope of our jurisdiction."
"The Inspection Bureau will take over from here."
"As for what the Inspection Bureau is, I only recently found out myself. It’s supposedly a division that governs Ancient Martial Artists, and they’re incredibly powerful."
"However, when the people from the Inspection Bureau arrive, they won’t have a guide. So, I was hoping you could help guide them, Er Gou!"
After hearing all this, Liu Ergou finally understood what was going on. But a new question quickly formed in his mind.
"Uh, Jia Jia, why me? Why do I have to be their guide? Can’t you do it?"
"Don’t tell me the people from the Inspection Bureau only like male guides and not female ones."
"If that’s what you’re going to say, I’m leaving right now, and we’ll never see each other again!"
