Reunion (23)

An Xiaoning could no longer stay still. She called Pan Zhenghui directly to ask what was going on.

Pan Zhenghui then explained, "It's like this, the higher-ups called me directly to make me pass the case for the Serious Crimes Investigation Unit to take over. Their reason is that they don't want you to be involved in the case, and they will hand over other cases to you."

"I need a more convincing reason, not this." An Xiaoning felt that there was something fishy going on. Her voice turned deeper as she demanded for an explanation, "Chief Pan, tell me the truth. What exactly is the reason that Chi Rui'er's case has been passed over to the Serious Crimes Investigation Unit?"
