Xu Lei, who was in the Deputy Captain’s office in the Provincial Public Security Department in City B, frowned upon hearing Lu Jia’er’s words. His looks indicated that he felt sorry. “Professor Lu, I am sorry, but I cannot promise that I would be able to protect Su Han’s safety. That being said, if I can meet her, I will definitely pass on your words on to her!”

Xu Lei’s answer might sound lacking a sense of righteousness, but it was the sincerest reply of all. Yesterday, MSS took over the case of Su Han’s disappearance. This morning, privately, Xu Lei asked the Captain about it and the Captain claimed he was completely in the dark as well.

Though it had been merely a bit over two years cine Xu Lei became the Deputy Captain of the criminal police unit, as a soldier with over a decade experience in the Special Force, Xu Lei was second to none when it came to perception and acute sense. In addition to the small cases, over the two years, Xu Lei had processed several major cases. He would carry out his task with drive and force to fight a quick battle to force a quick decision. Given his style and means, though he was transferred here all of a sudden, he had gained a firm foothold within a short time and had been recognized and admired by his leaders and subordinates.

Besides, the disappearance of Su Han was no regular case. A girl that wrote novels had gone missing for no reason and this case had caught the attention of MSS. Anyone would have wild imagination about the inside story.

During the past few days, Xu Lei searched for some of the novels written by Su Han on the Internet and he read some book reviews as well. Many readers had given positive feedback on Su Han’s novels, praising that the style of her writing as excellent, and the plot was novel, as if a breath of fresh air had blown into the literary world. She was a best-selling author that had cut a figure during recent years. Her works were popular. Unlike her works, the author herself was low profile. Apart from a Weibo account for publicity, nothing connected her with the outside world. There was no picture of her on the Internet. However, from her words and the interests and hobbies posted on her Weibo account, people could tell that she was a young female with a large stock of information.

Someone said that it was all a stunt to generate some buzz by remaining so mysterious, while others claimed that she was the shadow ID of a famous writer. Some believed that she was actually a he. There were many versions. Every time she published a new book, more new theories would rise and then repudiated, discussed. Heated discussions would be stirred up, which made her new novel more popular than the last one.

Of course, the quality of a novel was not supported merely on social buzz or heated discussion. The most critical part was still the content. She appealed to many readers with her stories and words. That being said, no matter how wonderful a work is, there would still be some critics. Even those comments were objective. Generally speaking, the reviews of her novels were quite good.

A mysterious writer had gone missing in a strange way, which was investigated by the mysterious MSS. If this were a novel, the story would be thrilling.

As his thoughts wandered to this place, Xu Lei asked at once, “Professor Lu, when Su Han writes her novels, is there anything unusual about her? Like, some eccentricity?”

“There is nothing unusual! Apart from writing, most of her time is spent on reading, reading extensively. Is that eccentricity?” Lu Jia’er asked.

“Besides reading, has she told you how she gained in-depth knowledge on the subject matter?” Xu Lei went on.

In an instant, Lu Jia’er had understood what Xu Lei was implying. “Deputy Xu, are you asking me if Su Han would do something privately that exceeds what is proper to have in-depth knowledge and that has caught the attention from MSS?

Xu Lei loved to chat with Lu Jia’er. For one thing, she could help him let his guard down so their conversation could be relaxing. For another, she was the most intelligent woman he had ever met. No matter how subtle he was, or obscure, she could get the point he was driving at accurately.
