Chapter 46 - Chapter 46: Chapter 46: Don’t Let Him Commit a Crime! (2/2)

“Tell me, what’s so extraordinary?”

Zhang Biao smiled, without putting on much airs.

But apparently, he didn’t believe a novel author could solve crimes.

And to even receive an evaluation: fantastical.

Pure nonsense!

“Director Zhang, I reported to you this morning and requested a genius detective. I was referring to the author of this novel. He successively inspected the 4th and 2nd floors, accurately determined that the scenes were forged, and identified the 5th floor as the primary crime scene…”

Hu Daqiang went into painstaking detail, reporting the ins and outs to Zhang Biao.

On the other end of the phone.

Zhang Biao’s frown deepened, and doubts began to rise in his mind.

As a professional and seasoned detective, Zhang Biao, after hearing Hu Daqiang’s account, could sense Lin Chuan’s astonishing performance during the investigation.

But hearing is not like seeing.

A novel author, can he really solve crimes?

And to do so with such clean efficiency?

While Zhang Biao’s skepticism had not diminished, he became highly interested in Lin Chuan and asked Hu Daqiang, “Do you mean to say his novel also possesses a high level of professionalism?”

“Right!”

Hu Daqiang chuckled, and immediately turned into Lin Chuan’s salesman, “You see, there aren’t many young people like Lin Chuan with a flair for criminal investigation and a sense of social responsibility. Director Zhang, why not make a full subscription yourself, as a way to support Lin Chuan?”

Zhang Biao laughed heartily, “I should indeed support him, but, what’s a full subscription?”

“It means subscribing to all the chapters of his novel. You just download the Sailing Novel app on your phone now, then search ‘This Assassin Is Too Professional,’ and you’ll find his book. Remember to go for the full subscription,” Hu Daqiang laughed.

Zhang Biao nodded, “Got it. I’ll see what level of writing our criminal investigation genius has achieved.”

“You go ahead and read first, Director Zhang. There are reporters all over outside the police station; I’ll go handle them,” said Hu Daqiang.

In the Director’s office of the Anling City Police Station.

Zhang Biao ended the call with Hu Daqiang.

After that, he followed the steps reported by Hu Daqiang, downloaded the Sailing Novel app, searched for ‘This Assassin Is Too Professional,’ and opened the novel.

Zhang Biao’s gaze fell on the novel, and he smiled with interest, “How professional can a novel be that has received such high praise from Hu Daqiang?”

In his youth, Zhang Biao was obsessed with martial arts novels.

The phrase “A true hero serves his country and his people” led him to embark on the path of a criminal detective, with the resolve to punish the wicked and eradicate evil.

After starting work, he hadn’t had the time to read a novel seriously for a long time.

If it were not for Hu Daqiang’s strong recommendation, he almost certainly would not have clicked on Lin Chuan’s novel.

Zhang Biao steadied his spirit and entered Lin Chuan’s ‘Assassin World.’

‘I am an assassin.’

‘Some call me the king of the dark night, others a reaper amongst men.’

‘But, no one has seen me.’

‘Because anyone who has seen me, is dead.’

‘To kill is to indulge in sentiments and enmities.’

‘It can stop injustice, it can execute justice.’

‘But what happens after the killing?’

‘Is it to find redemption for one’s soul, or to sink into suffering, never finding peace?’

‘I will tell you with my own experiences, what should be done after killing, and what will happen?’

‘In the end, I will advise you.’

‘Turn yourself in, the police are all outside.’

‘…’

Twilight gave way to the night sky.

Zhang Biao came back to his senses, the sky outside his office had darkened. He looked at the time.

19:06.

He had been engrossed in Lin Chuan’s ‘This Assassin Is Too Professional’ for over an hour.

Hu–

Zhang Biao took a long breath, recalling the contents of the novel, combined with Hu Daqiang’s ‘praise’ of Lin Chuan, he muttered to himself:

“Meticulous surveying, professional knowledge, extensive experience, scrupulous thinking, terrifying capacity to forge a crime scene…”

Afterwards.

Zhang Biao opened his chat with Hu Daqiang and clicked ‘hold to talk’: “Hu Daqiang, keep a close eye on this kid Lin Chuan, make absolutely sure he doesn’t commit any crimes!”
