I’ve heard about your situation, and if you ever have any difficulties, let me know and I’ll do my best to help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Fei spoke with enthusiasm, full of righteousness and compassion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Donglai’s words had just reminded him that he could rightfully visit Old Wu under the guise of checking in on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Old Wu’s disdain for the police, at most he’d see Luo Fei as an idealistic fool, never suspecting alternative motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, he bet correctly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to his status as a disabled person, Old Wu received many privileges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did the police team organize visits, but Zheng Changjun also organized a donation for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, in that moment, the only thought in his heart was that this was another self-righteous fool. Quite good, he enjoyed watching these fools dance around under his manipulation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wu concealed his secret excitement, while outwardly expressing overwhelming gratitude, \"Thank you, Officer Luo, for not looking down on someone like me and coming to see me purposely...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like every member of a vulnerable group, he appeared thankful and reverent, without revealing any flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Old Wu, please don’t say that. There’s nothing to look down on, physical defects aren’t something you can control. By the way, can I come in for a while and help you carry these inside?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Fei suggested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Possibly certain that all police officers were equally foolish, Old Wu agreed very smoothly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He opened the basement door with enthusiasm, \"Please come in, Officer Luo.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Actually, being in a confined space with a criminal alone is a very unwise decision because you cannot be certain if they would suddenly turn violent in a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Luo Fei had high confidence in his abilities; with his current skills, he was confident he could easily overpower even an A-level escaped convict like Jiang Sanqiang in hand-to-hand combat, let alone Old Wu with his physical disability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he picked up the items and walked in boldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This basement wasn’t particularly large, about the size of five or six square meters at most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In one corner, there was a bed, a table, two chairs, and a simple wardrobe. The room looked exceedingly cramped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room had a musty smell, possibly due to poor ventilation and damp conditions in the basement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet surprisingly, the room was very clean and tidy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite being a bachelor, Old Wu was noticeably more competent than Yang Dawei and Wang Wenbin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Fei scanned around the room quickly without spotting anything suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, a thick stack of books on the nearby table grabbed his attention; upon glancing at the titles, they were all related to criminal investigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Fei picked up a book with curiosity, \"Old Wu, you like reading these kinds of books?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I always wanted to be a police officer, but unfortunately my leg... It didn’t work out, so I enjoy reading these books for some thrill.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wu spoke naturally, with a look of regret, and proactively offered a chair to Luo Fei, \"Officer Luo, have a seat.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that so... May I ask why you wanted to become a police officer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Old Wu also sat beside him, grinning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps my childhood experiences made me see police officers as extremely righteous and noble, so I wanted to become one of them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words were filled with admiration and envy for the profession, but his peculiar smile had a mocking undertone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Making him seem extremely contradictory and unreasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Fei surprisingly detected a hint of affection in his tone and demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar to wanting to destroy something one cannot have.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a suspicion rose in Luo Fei’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that his failure to enter police academy led him to bear resentment towards the police profession, finding amusement in challenging them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, it does provide a reasonable explanation for his actions...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Luo Fei wasn’t ready to draw conclusions yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a stack of newspapers at the bottom suddenly caught Luo Fei’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this era of rapidly advancing networks, most people receive news via smartphones or televisions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Few people now buy newspapers, only certain agencies maintain the habit of subscribing.\u003C\u002Fp>",887,"2026-06-05T23:14:57.802Z",1,"novelbin.me","7f62726476c6d355583173c99a18408f34cebf6ccdd0b43b6d724298ea49a03e","gene-fusion-system-crime-hunter-chapter-246","gene-fusion-system-crime-hunter-chapter-244",986,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgene-fusion-system-crime-hunter-cover.jpg"]
