Chapter 236: Talking about History

He Feng sat quietly at the table, his eyes fixed on Ma Xin who was eating noodles across from him. He saw her skillfully picking up noodles with her chopsticks, putting them into her mouth, chewing them with big mouthfuls, and she looked like she was eating very happily.

He Feng, who had been busy all day and had not even had time to eat, now had his stomach growling. He subconsciously picked up the bowl and chopsticks in front of him and started eating with Ma Xin.

For a moment, the whole room was extremely quiet, with only the sound of the two people slurping noodles and chewing food. Occasionally, the sound of tableware colliding could be heard, but it was soon drowned out by the sound of eating.

He Feng put down the dishes in his hands, reached out to pick up the kettle, and filled a glass of water for He Xin.

He looked up at Ma Xin, and saw her stuffing noodles into her mouth like a whirlwind, as if she had been hungry for a long time. He Feng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this capable female comrade is really working hard!

After arriving here, Ma Xin went straight to the crime scene to investigate without saying a word. He had no time to stop and rest, let alone have a good meal. Thinking of this, He Feng had a little more admiration for this dedicated female comrade in front of him.

Perhaps she noticed He Feng's gaze, Ma Xin suddenly raised her head with an awkward smile on her face. She looked at He Feng a little embarrassed and said, "Director He, I'm so sorry to have embarrassed you. I've been so busy today that I haven't eaten yet. I'm really hungry."

He Feng waved his hands quickly and answered sincerely: "Comrade Ma Xin, please don't say that. This is not your fault! It's all my fault for not hosting you well. If your work is affected by starving you, I won't be able to bear the blame from my superiors!"

After hearing what He Feng said, Ma Xin smiled lightly, said nothing more, lowered her head and continued to concentrate on the remaining noodles in the bowl. After a while, she ate the whole bowl of noodles cleanly, even drinking up the soup without leaving a drop.

With a smile on his face, He Feng carefully handed the cup of water he had just filled to Ma Xin and said softly, "Comrade Ma Xin, come and drink some water to moisten your throat."

Ma Xin nodded slightly, a look of gratitude on her face, and she stretched out her hands to steadily take the cup of water handed over by He Feng, and said with emotion: "Director He, your cooking skills are really amazing! Today's meal made me too full. I haven't had such a feast like this in a long time." After that, she took a sip of the water in the cup.

After hearing this, He Feng smiled modestly, waved his hand and responded: "Comrade Ma Xin, you are too kind. It's just a common meal. I hope it suits your taste."

Ma Xin sipped the cool water in the cup while looking up at He Feng, his eyes full of curiosity and expectation. He then asked, "Director He, how did you successfully solve the case of that child? Can you tell me the details?"

He Feng smiled again, his eyes met Ma Xin's, and he slowly answered: "Oh, actually there's nothing special, it's just luck. The clues were sporadic at the time, and it took us a lot of effort to piece them together..."

Ma Xin frowned slightly and looked at He Feng with a firm gaze. She knew in her heart that things would definitely not be as simple as they seemed.

Ma Xin leaned forward slightly and said sincerely, "Director He, I want to know more than just the superficial results. You know, in our line of work, it's always good to accumulate more experience. So, I sincerely hope to record the details and key links of your case-solving. In this way, if we encounter similar difficult cases in the future, we can quickly draw wisdom and inspiration from them and strive to solve them in the shortest time possible."

After hearing this, He Feng couldn't help but smile slightly. He looked at Ma Xin with his deep and wise eyes and said slowly: "Comrade Ma Xin, you have exaggerated my views. But since you are so willing, I will tell you some small details of the process of solving the case." As he spoke, He Feng slightly adjusted his sitting position, as if he was lost in memories.

Then, He Feng began to narrate the thrilling experience. It turned out that it was not accidental that he was able to successfully uncover the traitor who had been hiding so deeply.

Instead, he gradually locked on to the target through careful observation and careful reasoning of a series of clues. Not only that, during the investigation, he also cleverly used the seemingly irrelevant incident of the deputy director secretly buying a child as a breakthrough point, following the clues all the way, and finally took down the entire criminal gang in one fell swoop.

Comrade Ma Xin listened to He Feng's narration attentively, and the pen in his hand kept moving quickly on the notebook, for fear of missing any important information.

After He Feng finished speaking, she looked up, her eyes full of admiration, and exclaimed sincerely: "Director He, you are really amazing! This operation is simply a brilliant plan!"

He Feng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a humble and polite smile, and said softly: "Comrade Ma Xin, you are so polite!" His gentle eyes fell on Ma Xin, as warm as the warm sunshine in spring.

In this way, the two of them chatted with each other, and time passed by unknowingly. He Feng looked out the window and saw that the sky was covered by the inky night, with stars twinkling in it.

He Feng turned to look at Ma Xin and said gently, "Comrade Ma Xin, it's really late. How about this, I escort you back to your residence first. We still have plenty of time to talk freely during the day, so there's no need to rush."

Ma Xin followed He Feng's gaze to look out the window and couldn't help but sigh: "That's right, I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, it's dark in the blink of an eye." As she spoke, a faint smile appeared on her face.

Then, with a smile on his face, He Feng carefully escorted Ma Xin to the door of the room that had been carefully arranged for her. He stopped and said to Ma Xin apologetically, "Comrade Ma Xin, I will escort you here. It is not convenient for me to enter your room. After all, I am a grown man. However, if you feel scared at night, don't worry. I will arrange a female comrade to accompany you tomorrow morning so that you can rest in peace."

Ma Xin smiled and said, "Comrade He Feng, you are too polite. We have nothing to be afraid of. You should go back and rest early. After all, you will be busy tomorrow."
