Chapter 146 - 146 Not Familiar
146 Not Familiar
Yin Tao felt she could freely speak her mind with Su Yan. She seemed very forthright and didn’t seem to be the calculative type.
“I would want that too.” Su Yan scratched the back of her head and said regretfully, “But studying medicine is too difficult. Although I’m not especially stupid, I think my limbs are more well developed than my brains.”
With that, Su Yan rolled up her sleeves and showed Yin Tao her muscles.
“You really have muscles?” Yin Tao didn’t expect Su Yan, who didn’t look fat at all, to be so muscular when she lifted her clothes.
“The police academy conducts physical training. As long as the diet is reasonable, it’s actually not difficult to develop muscles.”
Yin Tao was full of admiration for Su Yan. Compared to her, she was simply a frail little girl. This was the first time Yin Tao felt that she was a little useless.
When they arrived at the canteen, Yin Tao took the initiative to treat Su Yan to a meal as Su Yan had yet to apply for a meal card. Seeing how hesitant she was when she was getting the food, Yin Tao reminded her in a low voice, “Just scoop whatever you want. The food in the police station’s canteen is charged according to the number of servings. You won’t be charged more even if you take large servings.”
After Yin Tao finished speaking, Su Yan seemed to have been unleashed. She filled her plate to the brim before going to find a seat with Yin Tao.
Yin Tao was initially worried that Su Yan wouldn’t be able to finish so much food, but Su Yan had almost cleared her plate when Yin Yao was only halfway through her food.
“I’ll go buy two glasses of water. Take your time.” Yin Tao got up to get drinks. Su Yan had surprised her a few times this morning.
After they finished their meal at the canteen, Yin Tao was initially concerned that Su Yan would feel bloated. However, when she saw Su Yan munching nonchalantly on a sausage, Yin Tao felt that she was being too paranoid.
“Dr. Yin, do you know Captain Feng Jing?” Su Yan and Yin Tao were walking back to the police station when Su Yan suddenly asked her this question. Yin Tao slowly stopped in her tracks.
“Just call me Xiaotao.” Yin Tao suddenly recalled Su Ning’s previous conversation with her. He seemed to have said that he wanted to introduce his cousin to Feng Jing. At that time, Yin Tao thought that he was joking. It was only when his cousin suddenly appeared that Yin Tao realized that Su Ning might have been serious.
“Do you want to know Captain Feng?” Yin Tao had just asked when she saw Su Yan’s eyes flicker like a puppy.
“Of course, Captain Feng Jing is a legendary figure in our police academy!”
Yin Tao smiled awkwardly and said, “You’ll get to know him when you start your internship.”
“Is Captain Feng Jing usually very busy? Sister Xiaotao, are you familiar with him?” At the mention of her idol, Su Yan seemed to have suddenly become very talkative.
“He’s quite busy I suppose, I’m not too sure either. After all, how close can a forensic doctor like me be to a detective captain?” Yin Tao wanted to change the topic, but a junior officer from division two walked over.
“Dr. Yin, where is Captain Feng?”
Yin Tao awkwardly shook her head. “I’m sorry, I don’t know either…”
After taking a few steps, Yin Tao heard Captain Chen’s voice behind her.
“Xiaotao, where’s Captain Feng? Why don’t I see him with you?”
Yin Tao was on the brink of tears. This slap in the face seemed to have come too quickly. Yin Tao glanced guiltily at Su Yan beside her and realized that she was also looking at her.
“Captain Chen, this is Su Yan, an intern detective reporting to the station today.” Yin Tao introduced Su Yan to Captain Chen.
“Oh, I know. Old Su told me. Just follow me.” Captain Chen gestured for Su Yan to follow him. Before he left, he turned to Yin Tao and instructed, “Xiaotao, if you see Captain Feng, help me tell him that I’m looking for him.”
Yin Tao smiled bitterly and nodded, no longer daring to look at Su Yan.
Yin Tao was bored when she went back to her dormitory to rest. She picked a horror movie to watch, but the blood and corpses in the movie were so fake that she couldn’t enjoy the show at all. The plot of the movie was so predictable that it made her sleepy instead. She didn’t know if it was because she always accompanied Feng Jing on his investigation work, but she felt that her logical thinking skills had become much sharper.
Looking at the time, Yin Tao sent a message to Lin Jia.
[Brother Lin Jia, I’m free now. When are you free? Let’s meet.]
After the message was composed and sent, Yin Tao received Lin Jia’s reply less than a minute later.
[Then let’s pick a cafeteria. I’ll pick you up at the police station later.]
Seeing Lin Jia’s message, Yin Tao hurriedly replied: [No need. Send me the location of the cafeteria. Brother Lin Jia, I’ll take a taxi there myself.]
