Chapter 236: Reviewing the Files

In the office of the Beijing Station Police that bears the captain's nameplate, Lei Zhan'ge sat there, leafing through the plan Lu Cheng had brought.

"Hmm, not bad at all, the categories are detailed, the listed regulations are complete, looks like you put effort into it."

"Anything Captain Lei arranges must be done with care; I didn't sleep a wink last night, working overtime to finish it," Lu Cheng said, deliberately yawning in a weary manner.

Seeing this, Lei Zhan'ge softened and said, "Then you go back and rest first; later I'll submit the plan."

Lu Cheng stood up to leave, and when he noticed the Jeep key on the desk, he turned his head again: "Hey Captain Lei, could I borrow your Jeep for a spin?"

Lei Zhan'ge didn't even lift an eyelid and said, "Hmm, go ahead and take it."

Hearing the consent, Lu Cheng was instead taken aback.

He had expected that taking the Jeep would require a lot of back‑and‑forth, but Lei Zhan'ge agreed so readily.

"Captain Lei, you didn't even ask what I'm taking the Jeep for?"

Lei Zhan'ge snorted twice: "Whether I ask or not, I still have to lend it to you; otherwise you'd pile a bunch of excuses on me. Rather than clutter my ears, I'd rather just let you take it, that way I'm clean."

Lu Cheng was speechless; what kind of person did he imagine him to be, so shameless?

"Captain Lei, if you put it that way, even if you don't listen, I still have to tell you, you think I just want to drive? Yes, I want to drive… but it's to do a favor for you."

Lei Zhan'ge kept scratching his head there, agreeing to let the car go while spouting a bunch of excuses.

"Y‑you say, I didn't assign you any task, so why is it a favor for me? If you can't explain today, then you can't take the car."

Lu Cheng sat back down, leaning forward: "Of course it's a favor for you; I'm going to find a Sun daughter‑in‑law for you. Driving the Jeep over makes our family look good, gives us face."

"Hmph!" Lei Zhan'ge was unimpressed: "Last time you went to the Hua Bing Chang you said the same, and what happened? You ended up fighting someone there and didn't even see a single daughter‑in‑law."

Last time we arranged a group fight, Lu Cheng didn't even dare to call Da Kui and the others.

"That last time was just an accident; this time is different. In the evening, I'll bring the girl's side over to your house."

"Bring her to the house? Are you serious?"

"Of course it's real; we've already talked with them, they're willing to meet. So, who should meet first?"

Da Kui definitely can't; with his messed‑up brain, marrying Da Kui off is just too hard.

The only ones left are Zhao Jinzhu and Chang Jinbu, one too tall, the other too short.

Lei Zhan'ge thought seriously: "How about we let Jin Zhu meet first; being a bit taller is better than being shorter."

Lu Cheng nodded: "Captain Lei, that's what I meant too; as they say, better tall than short. So let's do that; have Lei Nainai prepare a bit."

Seeing this was serious, Lei Zhan'ge cheered: "Alright, I'll inform the family right now. Hey, Xiao Lu, if this actually works out, you'll have fulfilled a wish for me, so I must give you this great matchmaker—serve you a big carp."

"Captain Lei, you're being modest; as their team leader, finding a wife for them is also my wish. As for Jinbu and Da Kui, we'll… "

Lei Zhan'ge was deeply moved; it seemed that handing those three kids over to Lu Cheng's group was the right decision after all.

After leaving the office, Lu Cheng got into the Jeep and headed straight for the cultural troupe.

On the steps at the doorway, Lu Cheng saw Wei Fang waiting in the cold wind from the car window.

Getting out of the car, Wei Fang also saw him and immediately complained: "Why did you only just arrive? I was about to freeze to death!"

Lu Cheng shyly stepped forward to shake hands: "Sorry, Li Kui… it's Comrade Wei Fang."

Wei Fang, too lazy to argue, looked at the Jeep and said: "You even drove here yourself."

Nowadays anyone who can drive a Jeep is as impressive as a modern luxury sports car, definitely eye‑catching, especially to young girls.

Lu Cheng still held her hand; I must say, the girls in the cultural troupe don't do manual work, their palms are white and tender.

"Ah, it's the official car assigned by the team."

"Official car?" Wei Fang was a bit skeptical: "How old are you, you're not some high‑ranking leader, why would you get an official car?"

"You just don't get it. In our team I'm an outstanding progressive youth, a once‑in‑a‑century talent, so the leadership, valuing talent, gave me this official car…"

"Oh dear, why are you still holding my hand?" Wei Fang felt the back of her hand itch from being scratched, realized it, and quickly pulled away.

Lu Cheng remembered there was still business to do: "What about Senior Sister Su?"

It should be said that Su Feixue, being a military background, handles matters efficiently; the two tasks she was asked to help with yesterday were reported this morning, all resolved.

"Team Leader Su is busy."

"Busy? Then she asked me to come early, to go to the Dang An Guan!"

"Yes, I'll go with you; that way, if you call me 'sister', I'll take you there."

Seeing Wei Fang's smug look, Lu Cheng gritted his teeth: "Are you older than me? And you let me call you sister!"

"Will you call me? You won't, right? If you don't, I'm leaving."

Sure enough, as Su Feixue said, these girls each have a very fierce temper.

Lu Cheng knew that with such women, the more you go along with them, the more they push.

Suddenly, Wei Fang's body was lifted, and she immediately screamed in shock.

"Hey, you're being a scoundrel, let go of me, quickly let go, you rogue…"

Lu Cheng ignored her, hoisted her and tossed her straight into the car; infuriated, Wei Fang sat there, arms crossed, glaring.

Lu Cheng didn't look at her, drove all the way to the Dang An Guan entrance, and as he turned off the engine said, "Get out."

"Not getting out!"

She pressed harder, and Lu Cheng brushed his sleeve: "You won't get out, huh? Then I'll just carry you inside…"

"You! Truly shameless."

Wei Fang finally realized how bold Lu Cheng was and, frightened, quickly jumped out of the car.

In the courtyard of the Dang An Guan, there was a bespectacled person, probably also there to consult the archives, but whatever they said angered the attendant.

"You may leave. Here you can only peruse the files, not borrow them, and certainly not copy them as you suggested. Please leave immediately; you are not allowed to investigate."

Lu Cheng's head swelled at the thought; there must be a ton of information on Lin Zhenfeng, and he couldn't possibly memorize it all at once.

When he arrived, he had already prepared paper and pen in his coat pocket, intending to copy a copy to take back for study.

But when the bespectacled man said he wanted to copy a copy to take away, he was kicked out.

So, they said to Wei Fang, "That Fang Fang…"

Wei Fang stepped back, glared, "Who are you calling Fang Fang? Please call me Comrade Wei Fang."

"Alright, alright, calling someone isn't a meal. Later, tell your father and have him permit me to copy a copy and take it away."

Wei Fang glared again, whispered, "You're stupid, this can't be said outright. Didn't you see that the one with glasses was driven out? That's an explicit rule, but if you want to copy you can do it secretly; no one will keep watching you."
