Chapter 57 - 57 Black Market
57 Black Market
Lin Jia shook his head and patted his shoulder regretfully, “Alright, if you don’t have any other intentions towards Yin Tao, I’ll woo her. Don’t blame me when the time comes.”
Feng Jing looked at the smiling Lin Jia and felt that his expression was a little annoying. “We’ll talk about it when you succeed.”
“Are you looking down on me? Let me tell you, I’ve known how to give pretty girls gifts since kindergarten. I have plenty of ways to woo a little girl like Yin Tao.” Lin Jia felt that Feng Jing treated Yin Tao differently and wanted to deliberately provoke him to see his reaction.
However, Feng Jing felt that Yin Tao was even braver and calmer than some men, as she could remain calm in the face of a highly decomposed corpse.
“Let’s go, I’m done packing.” Yin Tao combed her hair into a simple bun, making her look even younger.
Following Feng Jing and Lin Jia out of the villa, Yin Tao got into Feng Jing’s jeep.
“Little Sister Xiaotao, see you another day.” Lin Jia waved at Yin Tao through the car window with a gentle smile on his face.
Yin Tao also waved her hand. Lin Jia only got into his car after Feng Jing’s car sped away.
In the car, Yin Tao looked at Feng Jing, who was driving silently, and then noticed his right hand.
“Did you apply the ointment properly?” Yin Tao felt that his injuries seemed much better.
“Yes, I applied it this morning.” Feng Jing noticed Yin Tao leaning over slightly and tightened his grip on the steering wheel.
“No matter what injuries you suffer in the future, you have to treat them carefully. Only then will you recover faster.” Yin Tao knew that as a detective, these injuries were inevitable.
“Alright, I’ll be careful.” Feng Jing’s voice was very low, but one could feel that he was very relaxed.
“Brother Feng, are we going to investigate Sun Peng’s social network today?” Yin Tao remembered Cheng Fei’s words yesterday. Sun Peng was a prime suspect.
“Hmm, I plan to go to the police station to investigate the Brother Nan that Cheng Fei mentioned. I also plan to make a trip to the black market to see if I can find something new.” Feng Jing wanted to investigate the situation in the black market. For so many years, the black market had been a thorny issue.
“Black market?” Yin Tao’s eyes lit up. This was the first time she had heard of such a place for human trafficking. She didn’t know how terrifying the black market in this novel was.
“Brother Feng, why don’t you bring me along?” Yin Tao was a little curious and wanted to know more about the dismemberment case.
“No, it’s still a little dangerous.” Although Feng Jing knew that it was impossible for him to enter the black market, he was still worried that Yin Tao would take the risk with him.
“Just bring me along. I might be able to help at a critical moment.” Yin Tao noticed that Feng Jing was hesitating, so she hurriedly added, “Besides, with you protecting me, how can there be any danger?”
Feng Jing thought of Yin Tao’s amazing observation skills and her superb acting skills last night. He felt that she might be able to help.
“Alright, then ask Ji Yu to come along too. We must ensure your safety.” Feng Jing looked at Yin Tao’s expectant expression and couldn’t bear to turn her down.
Yin Tao didn’t notice that the car had already arrived at the entrance of the police station. Yin Tao had originally planned to alight near the police station, but there was nothing she could do now.
Yin Tao lowered her head, afraid that someone she knew would see her. However, things didn’t go her way. The moment she got out of the car, she heard a familiar female voice.
“Xiaotao?” Bai Luo and Xia Jin were about to leave the station for their duty when they saw Captain Feng’s car. They wanted to go forward and greet him, but they saw Yin Tao getting out of Feng Jing’s black jeep instead.
“Bai Luo, you guys are going on duty so early in the morning.” Yin Tao realized that her words were more likely to cause a misunderstanding.
“You didn’t go home yesterday?” Bai Luo saw that Yin Tao hadn’t returned to the dormitory last night and thought that she had returned to her own house.
Yin Tao didn’t know how to explain. Xia Jin saw her discomfort and pulled Bai Luo towards the police car.
“Let’s go or Captain Chen will be angry later.” Xia Jin pulled Bai Luo, who still wanted to say something, and said to Feng Jing and Yin Tao, “Captain Feng, you and Sister Xiaotao go back to the police station first. We’ll make a move first!”
Feng Jing nodded and watched as Xia Jin pulled Bai Luo away.
“This is bad…” Yin Tao began to feel distressed over how she was going to explain to Bai Luo.
Feng Jing looked at Yin Tao who had a bitter expression on her face and comforted her, “Don’t bother too much about what others think, else your life will be miserable.”
Letting out a long sigh, Yin Tao admired Feng Jing’s carefree attitude as she lowered her head and followed him into the police station.
