Chapter 728: The People Cannot Fight the Officials!

When he saw Ye Jun tilting his head, with a provocative look in his eyes.

Chen Xiao could clearly feel that his heartbeat had quickened by a few beats.

Staring into Ye Jun’s eyes, Chen Xiao said with a smile, "Don’t say it, really, don’t say it, if you put your face in it, it would indeed fit perfectly!"

"Then, Brother Chen Xiao, why don’t you directly fill in my face?" Ye Jun responded with a smile too.

"Alright, just wait a moment."

Saying this, Chen Xiao took out a pen.

Ye Jun stood by watching, asking as he looked, "Brother Chen Xiao, once you finish drawing, you won’t just arrest me, will you? Although my dad is only a precinct director, he’s still a policeman."

"He told me that to catch someone, you have to catch them with dirty hands."

"Of course, I know this, but precisely because your father is a policeman, the people you meet are all us, the police. If the suspect were to encounter a different group, they wouldn’t have the patience to discuss evidence!"

"By then, it wouldn’t be a simple murder but a planned and purposeful assassination. Once determined, just based on what I’m saying here, you’d probably lose a layer of skin at the very least."

Chen Xiao finished speaking.

The pencil in his hand almost simultaneously completed Ye Jun’s face.

After completion, Chen Xiao repeated with admiration, "Don’t say it, really, don’t say it, it’s simply identical!"

At this point, Ye Jun was no longer smiling and didn’t respond either.

He just frowned, looking at Chen Xiao, seemingly filled with deep confusion in his eyes.

This reaction was already enough to confirm everything guessed.

It was him!

It was indeed Ye Jun!

Even though he had a perfect alibi during Yuan Keyu’s murder.

But that alibi was almost worthless under his current puzzled expression.

But with such an obvious expression, Chen Xiao didn’t need to expose it.

He just raised his hand, patted Ye Jun on the shoulder, and gently asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Ye Jun snapped back to reality and said with a smile, "Thinking whether I’m too arrogant, there might be many aspects in this world that people my age don’t know about."

"Of course, there’s an old saying that goes, ’The people can’t fight the officials.’ This may sound unpleasant, but you have to admit it. An individual’s power is limited, and in the face of real authority, one person’s power can sometimes be a joke."

Hearing this, an intense look appeared in Ye Jun’s eyes.

But just as this look appeared, the hand Chen Xiao placed on his shoulder suddenly exerted force:

"Young and vigorous, that suspect in my mind is someone who acknowledges no one. But if he stood before me, I might bluntly tell him."

"The reason he succeeded before was that he hadn’t met an opponent yet. Now that I’m here, dealing with him... isn’t hard."

Chen Xiao’s words were meant to provoke.

So his words sounded quite arrogant!

Ye Jun still looked up at Chen Xiao, but just as he was about to speak, Chen Xiao was already walking out of the bedroom.

The purpose was already achieved.

It was confirmed that Ye Jun was indeed that knife!

And in Ye Jun’s heart, a seed was deeply buried.

A seed of disdain!

Chen Xiao didn’t know what kind of look Ye Jun had as he watched his back.

If he could choose for him, Chen Xiao hoped there was uncontrollable hatred and intent to kill in his eyes.

If so, it would’ve made things simpler, and they could capture Ye Jun on the spot.

Unfortunately, this could only remain a thought.

Seeing him come out, Ye Changhuai quickly came forward and asked with a smile:

"Advisor Chen, the meal is almost ready!"

Chen Xiao watched as Luo Mei brought out the cooked dishes, and he followed up with a compliment:

"Even if sister-in-law’s world is simpler, she’s already considered very virtuous."

"Oh, she just knows how to cook a bit, but for her, that’s not easy." Ye Changhuai also wore a big smile.

He seemed very pleased with others complimenting Luo Mei.

Chen Xiao thought about it and figured that when others praised Luo Mei, Ye Changhuai might feel some sense of fulfillment too.

After all, praise meant that Ye Changhuai took decent care of his family.

But Chen Xiao had no intention of staying for the meal, waving his phone as he found a deliberate excuse:

"I probably won’t have time for the meal; Captain Cao just called me, and I have to head back."

"Well... alright, but what did you and Xiaojun talk about just now?" Ye Changhuai couldn’t help his curiosity and asked.

Chen Xiao gave Ye Changhuai a knowing smile, and the latter, understanding, quickly apologized:

"Sorry, Advisor Chen, I overstepped."

Chen Xiao shook his head, indicating it was fine, and then walked straight out the door.

Just as he reached the door, Ye Jun emerged from the room, still watching his back.

Looking back, Chen Xiao made eye contact with Ye Jun before turning and walking on.

Leaving the Ye Family, the first thing Chen Xiao did upon getting in the car was call Qin Fei.

The latter had been waiting, and the moment the call connected, Qin Fei eagerly asked:

"How did it go? Did you provoke the kid?"

"It’s him!"

Upon hearing those two words, Qin Fei fell silent.

After two seconds of silence, Qin Fei, suppressing his excitement, asked again with a somewhat heavy tone:

"Are you sure?"

"There’s no evidence, of course, but his actions have made everything clear; he directly asked me to complete the portrait with his features."

"Damn... that arrogant?"

"That’s what young people should be like! Besides, he hinted to me that to catch a thief, one must catch them red-handed, so after I said something, he knew I suspected him, but he was also conveying that police need evidence to make an arrest."

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, Qin Fei continued:

"Then can your plan still succeed? With this, he might become extra cautious, which might prevent him from taking the next step."

Chen Xiao laughed: "Have you forgotten what kind of person the murderer is?"

"What do you mean? He’s definitely someone with brains. Obviously, since you suspect him, it’s impossible he wouldn’t be under surveillance. In that case, how will he break your vigilance?"

"Regarding the murderer, he should think of himself not just as someone with a bit of brains, but as a killer with far greater intelligence than many people! I think at this moment, he’s likely already working on it."

"And I also believe he will certainly find a way to break this game!"

Qin Fei was somewhat perplexed, and just as he was about to continue speaking, Chen Xiao suddenly interjected:

"Alright, I’m heading back to the station. Xiaoji called; I’ll answer his call first."

Saying so, Chen Xiao hung up before pressing the button to take Xiaoji’s call.

Just as he was about to press it, Chen Xiao, looking at Xiaoji’s incoming call display, began to furrow his brows!
