Meng Xiao had not slept all night, sitting in the living room, afraid that Zhao Guoying might sneak away. She almost dared not blink.

At five in the morning, she got up to cook breakfast.

At half past six, Zhao Guoying got up, changed his clothes, and he was once again the righteous captain of the criminal investigation team.

She steamed several baskets of baozi, thin-skinned and with generous filling, complemented with a sour and spicy dipping sauce.

Zhao Guoying devoured two baskets of baozi in one go. Meng Xiao packed the remaining baozi into a food box, intending to give it to Meng Xun later.

At ten past seven, they left together.

The police station did not allow Meng Xiao to enter. This time Zhao Guoying drove into the precinct, parked in the yard, and told Meng Xiao, "Stay in the car and don't wander around. Later, the detention car will pass by here, and you'll be able to see your brother. I'll give him the baozi."
