Chapter 2140: 2143: Wenren Meiqiao's Worried Frown

Wenren Meiqiao heard this and said, "Vice Admiral, the whole situation is very complex, and there are too many things that need investigating. Twenty-four hours...""This isn't a discussion with you, it's an order." The Vice Admiral raised an eyebrow and said, "If you need people, I'll give them to you; if you need authority, I'll grant it. Whatever you need, I'll provide. But there's no negotiation on the time to solve the case. By this time tomorrow, I hope to hear you say you've caught the person."

Hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao saluted and said, "Yes."

Seeing she had no objections, the Vice Admiral raised an eyebrow and said, "Also, I know you and Shen Gu have a good personal relationship. It seems he's also helping you, so please pass a message to him: Beijing is not the Provincial City, and he can't meddle in everything."

"If he can't help you solve this by this time tomorrow, then he should stop showing up wherever there's trouble."

Wenren Meiqiao, with a somewhat unpleasant expression, said, "You can call him yourself."

With that, Wenren Meiqiao turned and left.

Seeing Wenren Meiqiao's off mood, a few other safety supervisors exchanged odd glances.

After she left, one of the safety supervisors in the meeting room suddenly laughed, "Vice Admiral, what do you mean by this? Shen Qiang's security advisor role is anything but ordinary. Though his rank is low, as long as it involves the word 'security,' he can intervene in any matter of the Dragon Group."

The Vice Admiral frowned and said, "Do you have a problem with that?"

Another person laughed, "The Vice Admiral probably doesn't like Shen Qiang."

Another quickly said, "Don't speak nonsense, the Vice Admiral and Shen Gu have a good relationship."

Hearing this, the Vice Admiral frowned and said, "No need for wild guesses. Actually, I just don't like Shen Qiang. Initially, this matter was none of his concern after he delivered the medicine, but instead, at a critical moment, he just tags along with Wenren Meiqiao, and even stayed with her, until 7:40 this morning—what an opportune time for solving cases wasted by him."

The safety supervisors chuckled.

"Vice Admiral, you can't see it this way. For us, this matter is significant, but for Shen Qiang, it's a small matter. Those patients, the specialists almost declared them beyond saving, but as soon as Shen Qiang arrived, the illness was immediately cured."

"Isn't that right? With Shen Qiang here, the guy spreading the bacteria is like a loach in a washbasin, no matter how much he struggles, he can't make even the slightest splash!"

Hearing this, the Vice Admiral's brow furrowed deeper, and he said unhappily, "What are you saying? Shen Qiang is the Medicine King, if he couldn't do this, that would be strange. Our task isn't to cure diseases, it's to catch criminals, got it? Right now, Shen Qiang is seriously affecting Wenren Meiqiao's work. How can this go on?"

"A Qian Shanxue, a Wenren Meiqiao, both are rare talents in the Dragon Group in a century. If you let Shen Qiang keep interfering like this, it will ruin her."

Instantly, everyone fell silent.

"Why are you all standing around here if you have nothing better to do? Get out." The Vice Admiral was dissatisfied.

The supervisors immediately got up and left.

As they went downstairs, they started laughing.

"Looks like the Vice Admiral felt slighted because Wenren Meiqiao directly sought Shen Qiang's help."

"Indeed, Wenren Meiqiao's actions were really ill-considered. She was just looking to save trouble by calling Shen Qiang, but for such a small matter to request a security advisor from the Dragon Group, where does that leave the Vice Admiral's face?"

As they chatted, one of the safety supervisors with a cold expression and a stern voice said, "Are you sick? What are you speculating about? Initially, some people thought this was done by Shen Qiang. The Vice Admiral conducted a check and then instructed Wenren Meiqiao to call him in. Can't you see that your ability to work is really worrisome?"

"The Vice Admiral arranged this? Then what did he mean by that?" one asked in shock.

The cold-faced safety supervisor said, "He meant that Shen Qiang was ordered by the Dragon Group to help with the work, not to bed Wenren Meiqiao! You can't understand that?"

Instantly, the other three laughed.

One person laughed and said, "Then the Vice Admiral's order is too strict, given this situation, forget twenty-four hours, even within seventy-two hours, solving it would be the hallmark of an absolute expert."

"This case is no ordinary one. Twenty-four hours, I'd say that's going to be tough for Wenren Meiqiao."

The safety supervisor with the cold face, frowning at them, said coldly, "Tsk tsk, do you still have the mind to make sarcastic remarks? I'll tell you the truth, the Vice Admiral didn't sleep all night. He told me, since Shen Qiang is here, with his abilities, he should have found the real culprit last night."

"But the Vice Admiral waited anxiously all night without receiving any news, and instead, Shen Qiang and Wenren Meiqiao were in the room discussing privately until this morning. So just do what you're supposed to; the matter is now very simple."

"The Vice Admiral is angry. Either Wenren Meiqiao and Shen Qiang produce the real culprit in twenty-four hours, or Wenren Meiqiao has to resign, nothing more."

At once, several safety supervisors laughed.

"It seems the Vice Admiral really thinks highly of Shen Qiang."

"Makes sense too, being the War God's disciple, the future successor of the War God, if he didn't have this level of ability, it would indeed be disappointing."

"No need to think about it, it's nothing to do with us. They are sharpening Shen Qiang's skills, let's go back and wait for orders."

They dispersed.

But at that moment, Wenren Meiqiao, who had returned to the Dragon Group Security Center, looked grim.

Especially when she returned to her office and saw Shen Qiang lying in her chair with his big leather shoes on the desk, smiling at her.

Wenren Meiqiao felt a bit displeased, but looking at Shen Qiang's smile, she couldn't get angry.

"Should I find a woman to give you a shoulder massage?" Wenren Meiqiao frowned.

Shen Qiang laughed, "Got reprimanded, I heard you went to a meeting at the Beijing Department."

Wenren Meiqiao sighed helplessly and said, "You are very smart, but I think you should return my office chair to me."

"From a level perspective, the security advisor is above you as a regional security supervisor, so I temporarily requisitioned this desk."

Hearing this, Wenren Meiqiao got anxious and frowned, "Shen Qiang, stop messing around, the Beijing Department has already ordered me to close the case within twenty-four hours, otherwise, I have to resign, do you understand? I don't have time or the mood to joke with you."

Looking at the anxious and displeased Wenren Meiqiao, Shen Qiang suddenly laughed, "This is simple, if you smile, I'll solve it for you immediately."

Wenren Meiqiao was momentarily stunned, then frowned, "Shen Qiang, I'm really not in the mood for jokes."

"Do you think I'm joking?" Shen Qiang raised an eyebrow and smiled, "Just smile, and I promise, the person will be in your hands immediately."
