Invincible Young Master in the City
Chapter 609 - 609 605 Covert Investigation

609: Chapter 605: Covert Investigation 609: Chapter 605: Covert Investigation In a hotel near the police station, Liao Susu had booked a room in advance as a location for a secret meeting.

Dressed in civilian clothes, Ye Fan had no trouble finding the door to the room that Liao Susu had booked.

Ye Fan knocked on the door, and it was quickly opened by an uncle with a camera slung over his shoulder, who had been following Liao Susu.

Upon entering the room, Liao Susu’s beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement as she greeted him, barely able to contain her exhilaration, “Commissioner Ye!”

“Mm, Reporter Liao,” Ye Fan nodded in reply.

Liao Susu couldn’t wait to ask, “What is the big news, exactly?”

Ye Fan didn’t answer immediately, instead glancing at the uncle with the camera.

The uncle with the camera quickly grasped the situation and volunteered, “I’ll step outside for a smoke.”

After he spoke, he walked out of the room with an even temper and closed the door behind him.

Clearly, this wasn’t his first time facing such a scenario.

After the uncle with the camera left, Liao Susu seemed to realize she had been too eager and slowed down the pace.

She invited Ye Fan to sit and have a glass of water.

After sitting down, Ye Fan looked at Liao Susu’s extremely beautiful face and said, “Thank you for making the effort to come here from the city.”

“Hehe, glad you appreciate it.

I was non-stop, almost exhausted myself.

You better not be pulling my leg,” Liao Susu responded with a smile.

Ye Fan replied with a smile, “I wouldn’t dare.”

Then, Ye Fan shared the news about the cleanup operation around the campus with Liao Susu.

On hearing him, Liao Susu laughed joyfully, “This really is important news.

You managed to catch forty-six people all at once!

Thank you!

After this is reported, I will treat you to a meal!”

“Heh, no need to treat me to a meal,” Ye Fan said, “But, if you’re going to cover this news, I have one condition.”

“What condition?” Liao Susu asked.

“You must ensure that this news is broadcast,” Ye Fan said.

“This kind of positive news must be broadcast, of course!” Liao Susu exclaimed, but as she was about to continue, she suddenly choked on her words as if she had thought of something.

Her expression turned serious as she looked at Ye Fan and asked, “Could it be that the county of Mingde won’t let this news be spread?”

“More or less,” Ye Fan nodded, “So I want to see if you have the energy to get this news reported by the city TV station.”

“I certainly have that energy,” Liao Susu’s brow furrowed slightly as she said, “But from what you’re saying, it seems like you’re the only one pushing for this exposure.

Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?”

Liao Susu, being a television reporter, was very familiar with bureaucratic rules and knew that this sort of thing was a major taboo in government circles.

“Of course I know,” Ye Fan said.

Liao Susu blurted out, “Knowing this and still secretly going behind everyone to seek me out; you’re not crazed for fame, are you?”

“Ha, you could say that,” Ye Fan said indifferently, offering no defense.

As they spoke, Ye Fan stood up and said, “Time is pressing, let’s be on our way now.

Oh, and since you’ve been to the police station and some might recognize you, you’d better wear a hat to conceal yourself.

Also, you can’t lug that big camera in there; you’ll need a miniature one.

Just you come with me to the police station.”

However, Liao Susu was clearly not so easily fooled.

As Ye Fan was about to open the door, she called out, “Wait!

Some things still aren’t clear.”

“What else is there?” Ye Fan turned to ask.

Taking two steps closer to Ye Fan, Liao Susu said, “You haven’t revealed your purpose.

I can’t just let you use me for nothing!”

“My purpose is for fame,” Ye Fan said.

Liao Susu scoffed, “Don’t play dumb with me!

You’re not someone who seeks the spotlight; otherwise, you wouldn’t have turned down my interview after catching the pickpocket on Yinxing Avenue that day.”

During their conversation, she quickly processed the information and realized a fact, “Are you trying to use public opinion to forcefully handle this case?

You caught so many people at once; if I’m not mistaken, you must be under tremendous pressure.

Maybe the higher-ups aren’t letting you deal with this case!

Am I wrong?”

Ye Fan hadn’t expected Liao Susu to be so astute, guessing most of it so quickly.

“Not bad, you’re mostly right,” Ye Fan turned to face her and said, “I’m hoping you can support me for the sake of those students in the campus who are bullied every day by hooligans and bad students.

Please.”

With keen eyes, Liao Susu assessed Ye Fan and said, “I didn’t realize you had such a sense of justice.

Your methods are a bit extreme, though.

You know, if you do this, it could be the end of your career; have you thought this through?”

“Hehe, it doesn’t matter,” Ye Fan said.

“If being a police officer means being stifled, then quitting wouldn’t be so bad.”

Liao Susu pondered for a moment and then said, “I can help you, but I don’t recommend you do this.

Honestly, you have a promising career ahead; don’t give it up so easily.”

“Thank you for your advice,” Ye Fan said calmly.

Liao Susu added, “I think media exposure should be your last resort.

You should still consider other options.”

Ye Fan nodded.

Afterward, Ye Fan and Liao Susu left the room together, went downstairs, and Ye Fan drove Liao Susu back to the police station in his car.

To avoid being noticed, Ye Fan had Liao Susu sit in the back seat.

Being one of the main leaders of the police station, Ye Fan drove into the station without anyone daring to stop him for a check.

Thus, Ye Fan smoothly brought Liao Susu inside the police station.

After getting out of the car, Ye Fan shielded Liao Susu with his body from prying eyes and quickly entered his office.

Once inside the office and the door closed, Ye Fan said, “Wait here for a moment; I’ll get some materials to facilitate your interview.”

According to the plan, Ye Fan would first be interviewed by Liao Susu in his office, then he would covertly take her to the detention and interrogation rooms for photos and recording, and finally, he would discreetly drive her out of the police station.

Liao Susu nodded in agreement.

So, Ye Fan left his office, went to the interrogation room to get a stack of the hooligans’ confessions and other evidence, and then returned to the office.

Back in the office, Ye Fan changed into his police uniform and quickly went about the interview with Liao Susu.

About fifteen minutes later, Ye Fan took Liao Susu out of the office toward the detention rooms.

Smoothly, Liao Susu managed to get her surreptitious recordings under Ye Fan’s cover.

Finally, Ye Fan drove Liao Susu out of the police station.

After driving Liao Susu back to the hotel and parking, Ye Fan turned to her and said, “We’re here.

I’m quite busy, so I won’t accompany you upstairs.”

“No need to be polite.

Although I have the interview footage in hand, I won’t release it easily until the very end,” Liao Susu said.

“You should still try to find another way.

I don’t want to see a just and promising police officer ruin his future.”

“Thanks for the advice; I’ll try to find another way,” Ye Fan said earnestly, feeling Liao Susu’s sincerity.
