Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After Jiang Ke finished his revelatory exclamation, the interrogation room grew completely quiet. Officer Wang and Cui Lizhu were shocked that Jiang Ke had guessed Zhao Yu’s identity.

However, Zhao Yu remained calm. After all, he was pretty famous now, so it was reasonable for a well-known criminal to recognize him. In fact, Jiang Ke was able to guess his identity after Zhao Yu had said only a few words, which showed that he was very clever.

“Haha... It seems that I’m right!” Jiang Ke laughed upon seeing everyone’s reactions to his guess.

He then said, “At the shop, I heard someone call you ‘Group Leader Zhao.’ Also, you don’t speak with a local accent, so I knew that you were not a local. Besides, when you caught me, someone called you ‘Special Investigator Zhao.’ However, I didn’t recognize you at that time...”

Jiang Ke waved respectfully at Zhao Yu, then added, “It was only until a little later that I realized that you were the famous Zhao Yu! I have seen your pictures on TV and in the newspapers, but I still didn’t recognize you at first glance. My memory is pretty bad.”

“So, you shouldn’t feel ashamed that I caught you.” Zhao Yu said indifferently. “After all, many criminals would consider it a privilege to be caught by me, but I don’t think that they are worth my effort!”

“Ha ha ha ha...” Jiang Ke laughed again. “So, you are saying that I should be proud of myself... To rate your pursuit? Hahaha... It seems that the rumors about the crazy detective Zhao Yu are true!”

“Crazy detective?” Zhao Yu was hearing this nickname for the first time, and he blinked his eyes and said, “I am an honest and wise man! This nickname does not match my temperament or status!”

Jiang Ke laughed even louder, then said, “No, you are misunderstanding the reason behind the name. We call you crazy because you always want to solve a case so badly, and also because you fight so fiercely with others!”

He smiled, then continued his explanation,”The nickname was given to you because you will use all kinds of means in order to win! Take me, for example. You saw through my plan, which shows that you are super clever! And since you could beat up my man, it shows that you are a terrific fighter as well. At least among the police force, I have never seen a person like you! So, Officer Zhao, it really is a good nickname.”

“In that case,” Zhao Yu said, while holding his hands up in a mock gesture of surrender, “then I’ll take it as a compliment!”

Jiang Ke showed no emotion on his face as he said, “In fact, one of my old friends knows you. So, when you were in Qinshan, I paid close attention to you, but unfortunately, I was too busy later and never had a chance to meet you! So, maybe that was why I was doomed to be caught by you today. The universe wanted us to finally meet!”

“An old friend?” Zhao Yu asked, while he thought of his main purpose for coming to see Jiang Ke. He had to wonder... Would this old friend happen to be Han Kuan?

“Yuan Jingdao!” Jiang Ke laughed and said, “We also call him ‘Priest.’”

“Oh?” Zhao Yu was slightly surprised by his reply. Unexpectedly, this so-called old friend was named Yuan Shucai. He was the Taoist priest from the Gold Buddha Temple case!

Jiang Ke then said, “He is always cautious, but in the end, he failed in his mission because of you. And, in less than a year since that time, you have already become a group leader!”

Zhao Yu stared at Jiang Ke. He felt that there was some deeper meaning in Jiang Ke words, but couldn’t quite put his finger on what it was.

“Well...” Zhao Yu thought for a moment, then said in a calm tone, “Now that you know how you lost to me, you have to tell me everything, just as you said that you would.”

“Cui Xiaolong didn’t have a criminal record, so normally, the police would not even look for him. Moreover, you are a special investigator. So... Why did you come all the way here to try to find him?” Jiang Ke asked. “Did you already know about our relationship?”

Since Jiang Ke had brought up Cui Xiaolong, Zhao Yu was determined to not miss this good opportunity, so he immediately said, “I went after Cui Xiaolong not because he committed a crime, but because I wanted to learn about someone else through him. But, that person was not you. In fact, before this, I had no interest in you at all!”

Jiang Ke laughed again, then asked, “Do you mean that it was just icing on the cake for you to catch me?”

Zhao Yu chucked a bit at his figure of speech, then said, “Probably. After all, compared with the man that I’m really looking for, you’re still far inferior. Moreover, you actually know the person I am looking for!”

“Ha ha ha ha...” After hearing this, Jiang Ke laughed once again. “Officer Zhao, it seems that you are looking for an answer from me. You have deliberately aroused my curiosity. You clearly want me to give you some information.”

“You are a smart man.” Zhao Yu nodded, then said without hesitation, “I am looking for someone Cui Xiaolong knows.... Han Kuan!”
