The Lin family's little boy returns to being eight years old, taking his family to new heights.

Chapter 164 Extraordinary Crime-Solving Speed

Niu Lanshan pressed down hard on Wu Zheng's shoulder, "How can it not be related to you? I often see you in the archives, looking at old cases over and over again. Don't be modest, you're the one who found the clue."

After saying that, he gave Wu Zheng a wink.

He originally thought that Fang Weiguo had come specifically to see Lin Xi, but it turned out that he was just passing by. So naturally, he couldn't let him think about Lin Xi.

But Wu Zheng didn't understand Niulanshan's meaning at all. How could he take credit for Xiaoxi's work? He hurriedly explained, "It really wasn't me, it was Xiaoxi! She was in the archives, flipping through them, and found it after only one look."

His expression was one of extreme pride.

Niu Lanshan closed his eyes helplessly, took a deep breath, and looked disappointed in Niu Lanshan.

What an idiot! How could he not know it was Lin Xi? If you had the brains, you would have solved the case long ago. Why wait two years?

Fang Weiguo's eyes lit up instantly, "Is it that little girl named Lin Xi?"

Wu Zheng asked in surprise, "Director Fang, do you know Xiao Xi?"

"Hehe, I've heard of it, but never seen it. It's not too late to get to know it now. You go and do your thing."

"Director Niu, come with me to the archives."

"Hey, okay, okay."

Niu Lanshan gave a forced smile, and before leaving, he turned back and glared fiercely at Wu Zheng.

Wu Zheng was completely baffled. Why was Director Niu angry?

Lin Xi was intently flipping through the files, her fingers moving swiftly like a dragonfly skimming the water, making a soft rustling sound.

With her photographic memory and strong logical thinking, she can quickly extract key information from the files.

Various pieces of information intertwined to form a vast and intricate logical picture, and she could easily find the missing or illogical parts within it.

She was so engrossed in her work that she didn't realize Niulanshan and Fang Weiguo had been watching her for quite some time.

It wasn't until after finishing reading the case that Niu Lanshan and Fang Weiguo noticed someone behind them when they glanced up and inadvertently saw the shadow in the water glass. They turned around abruptly, startling Niu Lanshan and Fang Weiguo.

As her intelligence improved, she was no longer the little girl who was always trembling with fear. She calmly got up and moved two stools for the two of them.

Fang Weiguo's interest grew even stronger. He sat down opposite Lin Xi and asked with a smile, "You don't seem surprised at all?"

"I am still a little surprised. This is the first time I have ever met an official of such high rank as yourself."

"you know me?"

"do not know."

"How do you know I hold a high position?"

"Just guessing. Are you from the provincial level?"

Fang Weiguo's smile widened even more. "That's right. Can you tell me how you guessed it?"

"It's quite obvious. You can tell from Director Niu's eyes and actions. He's respectful but not distant, which means he's in frequent contact with you. You're the director of the Provincial Public Security Bureau?"

Fang Weiguo nodded in satisfaction.

Niu Lanshan smiled wryly. Well, this first meeting has left a deep impression on Fang Ting. Xiao Xi, don't be too outstanding. This person has no good intentions.

Fang Weiguo picked up the file on the table. "Have you found anything?"

"Yes, yes."

Fang Weiguo raised an eyebrow. "You've already discovered something after just ten minutes?"

"Solving a case doesn't have much to do with time, does it? Director Niu and his team have been looking at it for two years, and they still haven't solved it."

These words are undeniably harsh, but they do make sense.

"Haha, great! You've put all the police station's manpower under your control today. I'll just sit here and wait for the results! Chief Niu, what do you think?"

What could Niulanshan say? They could only smile and say, "Okay, okay."

A short while later, Yan Feng arrived at the archives with a group of people. Lin Xi handed the case file to Yan Feng and said, "Brother Yan Feng, the murderer is this bystander. There are problems with his statement. Have someone search along the riverbank. He must live nearby."

Yan Feng pulled out two people and told them to investigate and bring the person back after they found them.

Although it is unknown what happened, it is clear that Director Fang is inspecting Lin Xi.

I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.

He really wanted to call the bureau chief out and ask him questions, but he didn't have the chance.

Director Niu remained as steady as a mountain. Now that things had come to this, he had to stay by Xiao Xi's side and keep a close eye on what was happening in the room.

Lin Xi didn't waste a moment and started looking at the next case, while the others waited in the archives.

The young girl flipped through the files with astonishing speed, making them wonder if she had even read them properly.

ten minutes later.

“Brother Yan Feng, the murderer is his boyfriend. The murder weapon is definitely still hidden in his house. We must search carefully, for example, under the floor tiles or behind the murals.”

Yan Feng turned his head and selected two young men. "Did you hear that?"

The two nodded in astonishment, walked out with blank expressions, wondering... was this a joke?

Another ten minutes passed.

"Brother Yan Feng, this man isn't dead. His wife committed insurance fraud, and his house should have a basement..."

“Brother Yan Feng, the murderer is the hotel owner. Send more people over. He has antisocial personality disorder and has committed crimes more than once.”

“Brother Yan Feng, this university teacher is suspicious. He's either the murderer or an accomplice. Let's bring him here for questioning.”

“Brother Yan Feng, the investigation is going in the wrong direction. It’s not her boyfriend. Investigate her sister.”

……

Within an hour, all the police officers were dispatched.

"Brother Yan Feng..."

Before he could finish speaking, Niu Lanshan interrupted, "Xiao Xi, if you send someone else, I'll have to go myself."

Lin Xi looked up and saw that there was no one in front of her. The once crowded archives room was now empty except for Director Niu and Director Fang.

The archives room fell silent as the group looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Fang Weiguo just wants to know the results as soon as possible and see if Lin Xi is really that amazing.

Niu Lanshan had mixed feelings. On the one hand, he hoped that all the cases could be solved, but on the other hand, he was worried that if they were all solved, Lin Xi would definitely be sent to the investigation team by Fang Weiguo.

Lin Xi was silently calculating how many Love Coins she could earn.

Finally, realizing it wasn't enough, he went outside to find paper and pen and continued to review the case files, writing down all the suspicious points so that Yan Feng and his team could continue solving the case the next day. Time was precious, and not a single second could be wasted.

Niulanshan's eyelids twitched; there was no need for him to be so dedicated.

After reading through all the files on the table, Lin Xi went to the bookshelf to find files from three years ago and continued writing and reading at the same time.

Fang Weiguo couldn't hold back any longer and asked quietly, "Old Niu, has she... always been like this?"

Why are you acting like a robot?

Niu Lanshan shook his head, "This is the first time I've seen this either."

He silently thought to himself, "What's so surprising about this? You haven't seen anything much scarier. Not only can they solve cases, they can also predict them."

A knock on the door broke the silence of the archives room.

"come in."

Upon seeing that it was Wu Zheng, Fang Weiguo asked impatiently, "How did it go?"

Wu Zheng was agitated. "That's right! Just like Xiao Xi said, the murderers are Zhang Xiumei and Wu Lei! These two had been together for a long time. They were caught having an affair by Li Qiang. Zhang Xiumei committed the crime, and Wu Lei buried the body..."

Wu Zheng continued his rambling account.

Fang Weiguo's eyes gleamed with excitement; this little girl was far more capable than he had imagined.
