Just now, Shen Hao was still anxiously worrying about how to find a breakthrough, but now he hears Jiang Cheng telling him to close the case?
What the hell is going on?
He remembers being told in Pang Ban's study before dawn to "investigate with all your might"—barely a day has passed, and the wind has shifted this fast?
"Sir, could you give me the reason? Xu Hong was just brought in, the interrogation has just begun, we haven't even had time to comb through what's been found in his home and now we have to close the case? Isn't this... isn't this a bit too hasty?" Shen Hao was getting emotional, mainly because he didn't expect such an unconvincing order.
Jiang Cheng didn't mind, simply patted Shen Hao's shoulder, sighed as well, and said, "It's the will of Mr. Pang, but also of Your Majesty. Think about it, do you understand now?"
Shen Hao shook his head—he didn't understand shit. But it was obvious from Jiang Cheng's tone that he was also rather helpless.
