Chapter 577 - 577 573 Refusing to Use Unworthy Individuals

577: Chapter 573: Refusing to Use Unworthy Individuals 577: Chapter 573: Refusing to Use Unworthy Individuals After the taxi set off, Xu Xiangli turned to Ye Fan and struck up a conversation.

Ye Fan had a good impression of Xu Xiangli, and since she was a glamorous and charming woman, he didn’t refuse to chat.

Their discussion was relatively private, serving as a means of getting to know each other.

As they continued their enthusiastic conversation, Xu Xiangli moved closer to Ye Fan, almost sitting next to him, but not quite touching.

The taxi ride, which lasted just over ten minutes, soon came to an end.

Before getting out, Ye Fan asked the taxi driver, “Sir, how much more to Changcheng Court?”

“About seventeen yuan in total,” estimated the taxi driver.

Ye Fan pulled out his wallet to pay, but Xu Xiangli quickly placed her hand over Ye Fan’s and the wallet, saying, “How could I let you pay for the ride?”

Xu Xiangli’s hand was soft and boneless, warm and slippery.

“No, it’s my ride, so I should pay,” Ye Fan said gravely, without immediately pulling his hand away.

If he took even this small advantage, he would be a leader without merit.

After saying this, Ye Fan took out a twenty-yuan bill and handed it to the taxi driver.

Although Xu Xiangli tried to pull Ye Fan’s hand back, she obviously couldn’t move it, and instead, her attempt to pull at his arm brought her body into brief contact with his.

The taxi driver accepted the money, leaving Xu Xiangli no choice but to retract her hand and sit back down, muttering about at least splitting the fare.

Ye Fan ignored what Xu Xiangli had said, took the change from the taxi driver, opened the car door, and said to Xu Xiangli, “Director Xu, goodbye.”

Then, Ye Fan got out of the car.

Xu Xiangli followed, waving her white jade hand as she called out, “Commissar, goodbye.”

Back inside the taxi, Xu Xiangli’s face broke into a charming smile.

After the night’s interaction and testing, she was pretty certain that Ye Fan was a generous person who would not take advantage of his subordinates like some leaders do, and he was not lecherous, at least not coveting her beauty.

When Ye Fan arrived at his doorstep, he opened the door and immediately heard Korean from the TV.

Glancing around, he saw the living room light was soft, and Wei Ziling was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, engrossed in a Korean drama.

However, the sound of the door closing finally startled Wei Ziling, who turned to see Ye Fan had returned, quickly jumped off the sofa, and greeted him with a smile, “Mr.

Ye, you’re back.”

She didn’t reach for the remote to change the channel.

Recently, Qing Luan had been watching Korean dramas with her daily, and she had to admit that Ye Fan knew about her fondness for Korean dramas.

So, when Ye Fan returned, she no longer switched channels hurriedly as she used to.

“Yeah,” replied Ye Fan as he walked toward the sofa and sat down.

Wei Ziling didn’t follow but turned and went to the kitchen to bring out a bowl of warm sobriety soup.

“Mr.

Ye, this is the sobriety soup I made, have some,” she said as she brought the steaming bowl to Ye Fan.

Since moving with Ye Fan to Mingde County, she knew that as a civil servant, he couldn’t avoid social drinking, so she had prepared ingredients early.

That afternoon, when she got Ye Fan’s call that he wouldn’t be home for dinner, she guessed he must be out at a function and therefore had prepared the sobriety soup in advance.

Ye Fan’s alcohol tolerance was quite high, and as someone skilled in internal strength, the drinking at dinner parties barely affected him.

However, having someone considerate enough to serve sobriety soup was always a good thing.

So, Ye Fan smiled, said “Thank you,” and began to drink the soup.

Meanwhile, Wei Ziling had moved behind Ye Fan, placed her jade hands on his shoulders, and began skillfully massaging.

The next morning, Ye Fan took a cab to pick up his car from the restaurant where he had dined the previous evening, and then he drove to work.

He parked his car in the police station’s parking lot and then walked to the office.

Along the way, Ye Fan encountered numerous police officers.

When they saw him, they all proactively smiled and greeted him warmly, “Commissar Ye, good morning.” It was no longer the odd looks of the past few days.

Upon entering the office and brewing a cup of tea, Ye Fan sat at his desk and hurriedly familiarized himself with various work procedures.

The serial murder case had been reassigned to Fan Feipeng; Ye Fan himself was unfamiliar with the specific interrogation process, so he stayed out of it.

At 9:30 in the morning, a knock suddenly came from the door, and Ye Fan looked up and said, “Come in.”

The door opened, and a middle-aged policeman in a somewhat worn uniform entered, his face clearly showing signs of sleep deprivation, holding a document in his hand.

“Commissar Ye, hello, I am Lu Jialiang from the Criminal Investigation Team,” the middle-aged policeman introduced himself.

Ye Fan stood up and nodded, “Hello, Captain Lu.”

From the dinner the night before, Ye Fan already knew that the man before him was a core member of the Criminal Investigation Team and an experienced policeman who had cracked numerous cases.

“The interrogation of the suspect Jin Junyou is complete; Jin Junyou has fully confessed to the crime and the process, with all physical evidence accounted for,” Lu Jialiang reported.

He then handed over the document and continued, “This is the result of the case review, please have a look, and if you approve, please sign.”

Fan Feipeng and others in the Criminal Investigation Team felt humiliated by Ye Fan, a young newcomer at the police station for less than two days, so when Tang Xianlong assigned the suspect Teacher Jin to them, they immediately conducted a rigorous interrogation, working overnight to finish the interrogation so they could report back early this morning.

Ye Fan took the documents and said to Lu Jialiang, “Please have a seat.”

Lu Jialiang knew that Ye Fan wanted to seriously review the case findings, so he unceremoniously turned around and sat down on the wooden sofa.

After carefully reviewing for about seven to eight minutes and finding no issues, Ye Fan picked up a pen to sign.

As he was about to sign, he inadvertently noticed that his signature as the deputy captain was placed before that of Captain Fan Feipeng, clearly acknowledging his major contribution to solving the case.

With a smile, Ye Fan flamboyantly signed his name and then handed it back to Lu Jialiang.

Not long after Lu Jialiang had left, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.

Ye Fan picked up the receiver, “Hello, this is Ye Fan.”

“Commissar Ye, hello,” a somewhat sleazy voice came over the phone, “I’m Fang Jinsan, the team leader of the Public Security Team, directly under Deputy Captain Chen.”

Ye Fan slightly frowned and asked in a cool voice, “What do you need?”

Ye Fan knew Fang Jinsan; he was Chen Kunfei’s confidant and tactician, and Ye Fan suspected that the plot to use Jiang Weidong’s family to ambush him likely originated from Fang Jinsan.

“Commissar Ye, do you have free time during lunch?

I would like to invite you for a meal outside and take the opportunity to report on my work,” Fang Jinsan said.

Yesterday, due to Ye Fan’s sudden assertive reversal and successful stabilization, Chen Kunfei lashed out at him, not only calling him into the office for a scolding, but also organizing a dinner to discuss how to deal with Ye Fan, which Fang Jinsan was not invited to.

He realized he had completely lost Chen Kunfei’s trust.

It was him who devised the plan to harm Ye Fan, and now having lost Chen Kunfei’s protection, he could foresee his bleak prospects.

Hence, after a sleepless night of contemplation, he decided to betray Chen Kunfei in exchange for Ye Fan’s forgiveness.

However, Ye Fan coolly replied, “If you have work to report, please come to my office and report it during office hours.”

With that, Ye Fan hung up the phone.

Regarding Chen Kunfei, he was definitely going to clear him out of the Public Security Team, but he disdained using a sleazy and sinister person like Fang Jinsan.
