Chapter 83 Distant relatives
"Application to go abroad?" Leaving the cyberspace, Lan Tian found that he had received an application from Aaron.
"Yes, I found the person who received Liu Jie's death pension. Guess what?" Aaron replied to Lan Tian's contact instantly, seemingly waiting for her response.
"That person is not in the country now." Lan Tian thought to himself that this was not a very smart move.
"It's not just as simple as not being in the country. Liu Jie's immediate family members died in a terrorist attack on military families before he died in the war. Originally, according to regulations, his pension did not need to be paid, but he had a distant relative who was beyond his reach.
My cousin contacted the rights protection organization for the families of the fallen through some unknown channel and sued the military and government. In the end, he actually won the lawsuit and received full compensation." Aaron told Lan Tian what he had just found out.
"At least he seized the opportunity to change his life." Lan Tian's evaluation of this cousin who made a fortune is quite neutral.
"What's even more strange is that two years after receiving the money, this cousin suddenly quit his job and sold all his fixed property in the country. Then he applied for economic immigration to Japan and got approval. He is now living in Japan."
Aaron added.
"When it comes to having an uneasy conscience and fearing retribution, isn't two years too long a reflex arc?" Lan Tian also sensed that something was fishy.
"And it only took a month between the time this man sold his property and the time he successfully immigrated. What happened to him at that time that made him run faster than a rabbit?" Aaron sneered.
"It's worth checking, so I'll approve this application." Lan Tian decisively approved the request, "But you have to remember that the federal government has no law enforcement power over Japanese nationals, and the cousin's current behavior does not constitute an international wanted order. When you go
It can only be that as the Personal Action Management Bureau, we cannot endorse your actions, and don’t forget that there are other people watching us, do you understand what I mean?”
"I understand, I have no grudges with that cousin, and I don't intend to cause trouble with him. I just want to ask the matter clearly." Saying this, Aaron's answer always made people a little uneasy.
"Anyway, you can take care of yourself..." Lan Tian didn't say anything more and just sighed.
After hanging up the communication, the detector at the front door detected Zhou Yuqing's ID walking into the hall.
"Where's Chief Liu?" Zhou Yuqing happened to walk in when he activated the terminal in the office.
"Chief Liu is a gentleman who knows how to read the atmosphere," Zhou Yuqing shrugged, "At least he won't come to work today."
"Understood." Lan Tian nodded, "So what is the result of the discussion?"
"Good or bad." Zhou Yuqing seemed to be not very satisfied with the outcome of the negotiation. "In conclusion, we still have to hand over the handling of the case. In view of our very candid attitude, they will not ask us to hand over the case in the short term."
Even if all the evidence and witnesses are handed over, we will not be forced to leave the case."
"That means Officer Ling's situation is not bad for the time being." Lan Tian breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, fortunately the Ministry of Emergency Situations doesn't want to completely break up the relationship. Maybe they think we are closely related to the Dream Maker case." Zhou Yuqing said with a bitter smile.
"Is it just what they think?" Suddenly Lan Tian's eyes looking at Zhou Yuqing became deep and melancholy, as if the terminal of the machine really came to life at that moment.
"The only thing I can promise you is that this was definitely not my deliberate arrangement, otherwise I wouldn't have caught myself off guard." Zhou Yuqing raised his hands as if to show some sincerity to the other party.
"...I believe you." Lan Tian withdrew his deep gaze, and Zhou Yuqing felt the pressure on his shoulders relax. Everything just now seemed to be an illusion.
"Now we have at least a week to continue the investigation. Did you and Officer Chen gain anything today?" Zhou Yuqing asked in a relaxed manner, pretending that she did not feel pressured by the other party.
"It's definitely more than you think. We even found free helpers." Lan Tian smiled and threw a data packet to Zhou Yuqing.
"You know what? If I handed that data packet to the Emergency Department, they might not be as friendly as they are now." After quietly reading the contents of the data packet, Zhou Yuqing said with a wry smile.
"After all, the military is involved, and it's the pension compensation that has always made it difficult for the military to lift its head." Lan Tian knew exactly what Zhou Yuqing was talking about, "But these have nothing to do with us. We are just a public security agency, and our biggest goal is
Catch the criminals and solve the case, and other political issues are beyond our consideration."
"Then let's keep it a secret for now." Zhou Yuqing showed a smirk on his face, "It should be fine to leave the hacker matter to you. Isn't it a bit rash for the Japanese side to only send Officer Chen there?"
"You want to follow?" Lan Tian asked back.
"Actions involving international relations always need a limiting valve, you know." Zhou Yuqing nodded, "I have no prejudice against Officer Chen, but he should not have been involved in this case in the first place. The involvement between him and the criminals is really serious.
If it's too deep, it often causes him to act out of impulse."
"Haha, if you say that, you and I are not qualified. Only Chief Liu in this special investigation team has nothing to do with the Dream Maker." Lan Tian sneered.
"You're right, I'm just worried." For some reason, Zhou Yuqing looked a little embarrassed.
"Since Sister Zhou wants to go, just go with her. Actually, I don't feel very comfortable letting Officer Chen go by herself. Although that person can always bring clues, he can always bring trouble." Lan Tian changed the subject and agreed with Zhou Yuqing.
suggestion.
"As far as our current situation is concerned, clues and troubles are often the same thing." Zhou Yuqing sighed, "I will contact Officer Chen first to make it clear to avoid misunderstandings."
The result was not particularly good. When Aaron heard that Zhou Yuqing was going to go with him, he expressed dissatisfaction without hesitation and believed that Zhou Yuqing should focus on investigating other shelved clues instead of wasting time on being his limiting valve.
Fortunately, Zhou Yuqing's ability in negotiation was definitely worthy of her self-claimed status as a "former member of the public relations department." After a gentle and reasonable explanation, Aaron reluctantly accepted the arrangement of traveling with her.
Perhaps because of this communication, Aaron was in a bad mood when he returned home. Absentmindedly, he just walked into the lobby on the first floor of his apartment, and saw an acquaintance here that he didn't expect.
"Xiao Xiao, why are you here?" Aaron still remembered what happened the last time Ling Xiao appeared downstairs in his home. At that time, she had a big fight with her father Ling Chong because of her future plans and left home angrily.
Then she ran to Aaron to seek shelter. Aaron had no choice but to let her stay at his home for a few days after contacting Ling Chong. From then on, the girl became particularly attached to Aaron for some unknown reason.
But it is absolutely impossible for a similar situation to happen now, because Ling Chong is still detained at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so Aaron is very surprised about the reason why Ling Xiao appears here.
"Brother Long, I want to ask about my dad." The girl with smart eyes had a serious expression, and her tight lips seemed to silently say "I'm not joking."
"What happened to Uncle Ling?" Ling Chong told Aaron not to reveal what was going on to his family. If he could, Aaron would naturally keep it secret.
"Brother Long, tell me the truth, did something happen to my dad?" Ling Xiao ignored Aaron's rhetorical question and asked directly.
"Why do you say that?" Aaron wondered, could this smart girl really see something?
"When my dad contacted my family that day, I felt something was wrong. Usually he never told my family about his overtime work. It was my mother who took the initiative to ask when she saw it was late. But this time he not only took the initiative to contact my family, but I also contacted him afterwards.
Come on, this is not as simple as working overtime
"Single." Ling Xiao looked at Aaron worriedly, "I want to confirm that I'm waiting here. Something is indeed wrong. Brother Long, you are my father's partner. If my father is too busy to come home, you should do the same."
It’s the same, but why are you here now?”
"This..." Aaron was dumbfounded when he asked Ling Xiao. Originally, he thought that this girl was indeed a police material, but he never thought that one day this talent would be used for him.
"Brother Long, I beg you, tell me what happened to my dad? I really can't let go of being kept in the dark like this." Seeing that she had stopped Aaron from asking, Ling Xiao
Take advantage of the victory and pursue the path diligently.
