<h4>Chapter 535: Chapter 535: Not Interested in You</h4>
After thest two major cases, everyone in the police station had started seeing Zhuo Yating in a new light, and their attitude toward her had changed a lot.
But that wasn’t enough; she needed to solve an even bigger case to gain everyone’s full recognition.
And this time, the begging syndicate case was an excellent opportunity.
So Zhuo Yating had put all her energy into this case.
But now, Chen Feng had said that the most important clue, the cellphone, was dysfunctional.
For Zhuo Yating, this was undoubtedly like the sky had fallen!
Zhuo Yating turned pale, her eyes lifeless, as if all the strength in her body was drained at that moment. She couldn’t even stand steady and, after shaking on the spot, copsed into the chair behind her.
Seeing this, Chen Feng also frowned.
He hadn’t expected his words to strike Zhuo Yating so hard!
Was this still the same busty, brainless, and carefree fiery policewoman?
What Chen Feng didn’t know was,
when a person pins all their hopes on one thing, any mishap with that thing bes unbearable!
At best, it leads to severe depression; at worst, it results in jumping off a building.
There are many such examples in society, like failing in stock trading or flunking school entrance exams.
The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
At that moment, that was the case with Zhuo Yating.
"Are you okay?"
Chen Feng looked at Zhuo Yating and asked.
"Everything’s over. This time, all my efforts are wasted!"
Zhuo Yating slumped in the chair, pale-faced and lifeless-eyed, said.
"It can’t be that bad, right? Even if you can’t crack this case, it won’t affect your police career!"
Chen Feng said with a smile.
"You don’t understand. If I don’t eradicate this begging syndicate this time, my career as a detective will end here. After that, I might be transferred to a local police station to be amunity officer. My dreams will be all destroyed!"
Zhuo Yating said in despair.
"It won’te to that. You’ve just solved two big cases in a row; surely, your leaders wouldn’t be so heartless?"
Chen Feng asked, frowning.
"They’d love for me to leave the detective team. Our Deputy Captain Liu Qi is probably bad-mouthing me in the Chief’s office right now."
"I wasn’t worried before because I had that cellphone. It could have solved this case, and then no bad talk would have mattered!"
"But now, you’re telling me the cellphone is dysfunctional and the vital clue is gone. Plus, with our Deputy Captain fanning the mes, my transfer is guaranteed!"
Zhuo Yating said helplessly.
"Oh, I see!"
Chen Feng nodded with a smile and then looked at Zhuo Yating, asking, "What if I said I could help you with this; how would you thank me?"
"You help me? Without that cellphone, how can you help? Unless you catch the boss of the begging syndicate right now and bring him to me, maybe there’d be a chance."
"But that’s totally impossible. That person is very cunning. The police department has put in so much effort and didn’t manage to catch him; even if you’re skilled, it’s not possible to catch him in a short time!"
Zhuo shook her head, voicing her doubts.
"We’ll see about that!"
Chen Feng’s lips curved slightly as he smiled.
"What do you mean?"
Zhuo Yating frowned, puzzled.
"Never mind what I mean. First, tell me, if I do catch him, how will you repay me?"
Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"I... If you really could do it, I’d do anything you ask!"
Zhuo Yating took a deep breath and said.
But despite her words, she didn’t believe Chen Feng could achieve it.
"Oh? Really?"
Chen Feng’s lips curled into a sly smile as his eyes brazenly roamed over Zhuo Yating’s delicate body.
"What do you want? Pervert!"
Seeing this, Zhuo Yating quickly covered her chest with her arms.
"Don’t worry, I’m not interested in a woman like you!"
Chen Feng withdrew his gaze, teasingly said.
"Hey, what do you mean by that? What kind of woman am I? Am I that bad?"
Zhuo Yating red at Chen Feng, asking discontentedly.
"Don’t get me wrong, your looks and figure are very okay. It’s just that you have a rather explosive temper, like gunpowder, ready to blow up at the slightest thing—I don’t really like that!"
Chen Feng smiled and exined.
"Jerk, you’re the one who’s like gunpowder!"
Zhuo Yating red fiercely at Chen Feng, said angrily.
"See, you’re getting mad again, aren’t you? Calling you gunpowder really doesn’t wrong you. You really need to work on that temper. Women who often get angry tend to age faster!"
Chen Feng’s lips curled into a smirk as he spoke.
"Go to hell!"
Zhuo Yating red at Chen Feng and spoke irritably.
"Alright, enough messing around,e with me!"
Chen Feng smiled and said.
"Where to?"
Zhuo Yating paused, puzzled.
"To see the big surprise I’ve got for you!"
Chen Feng replied smilingly.
"Not in the mood, I don’t want to see it now!"
Zhuo Yating shook her head and said.
"Don’t you want to know the identities of those four people?"
Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"I’m not interested, my entire focus is on this ’begging organization’ case right now. I don’t want to see anyone else!"
Zhuo Yating shook her head and said.
"Trust me, if you don’t go, you’ll definitely regret it!"
Chen Feng’s lips twitched slightly, speaking with a yful look on his face.
"What’s there to regret? Could one of them really be the boss of the begging organization? Don’t joke around!"
Zhuo Yating rolled her eyes at Chen Feng and spoke.
"You never know, there really might be!"
Chen Feng replied with a smile.
"Huh?"
Zhuo Yating paused for a moment, then quickly shook her head, "Impossible, you must be fooling me!"
"Please, what do I gain from fooling you? Hurry up and open the door ande with me. Sitting here all the time, how could that help the case?"
Chen Feng rolled his eyes and spoke irritably.
"I... fine, let’s go then. But let me make it clear, I still don’t believe what you said!"
Zhuo Yating hesitated for a moment, saying proudly.
Then, she got up and walked to the iron door of the interrogation room.
Looking at the door that she had locked herself, Zhuo Yating paused slightly, thinking:
If Chen Feng could break free from such sturdy handcuffs, this door shouldn’t be able to stop him, right?
With that thought, Zhuo Yating shook her head, self-mockingly smiled, then took out the keys to unlock the interrogation room’s door, and left the interrogation room with Chen Feng...
