They eventually accepted the idea of taking some "cooling-off" time, probably due to the impact they experienced. Wang Yibo's parents went to a tourist destination to relax, and occasionally they would send messages to Wang Yibo while they continued to work together.

Xiao Zhan's promotion speed broke records at the police station.

Wang Yibo didn't feel any sense of unfairness about it. After all, considering Xiao Zhan's experience, how many people in the world could surpass him?

The clues Xiao Zhan found during investigations were always bizarre, often to the point where they couldn't be written up into a report. There was even one instance where he had a dispute with a forensic expert. The forensic expert firmly stood by his analysis results, claiming there was no issue, but Xiao Zhan focused on a tiny detail and deduced that the forensic expert's work wasn't meticulous enough. He went on to cut open a body that had already been stitched up after an autopsy, and the result turned out just as Xiao Zhan had predicted.

Xiao Zhan's eccentric inspiration for solving cases and his wealth of experience led the police station to transfer him to the highest-level bureau's Criminal Psychological Analysis Division.

In other words, Xiao Zhan started studying abnormal psychology, quite ironic.

As for the matter of not being able to work in the same place, Wang Yibo coaxed Xiao Zhan for a long time before Xiao Zhan accepted it. As a return, Xiao Zhan insisted that whenever he worked from home, Wang Yibo must accompany him.

Xiao Zhan brought back many cases to review every day, and Wang Yibo sat by his side, feeling a bit distressed.

"Your workload is too much, isn't it? This won't do. Let me cook for you from now on" said Wang Yibo.

"It's okay" Xiao Zhan replied with a perfect smile, then leaned against him and continued flipping through the files.

After pondering for a moment, Wang Yibo asked again, "Xiao Zhan, is it true that you don't do anything during work hours and only start working on them when you bring the cases back home the next day?"

Wang Yibo was well aware of Xiao Zhan's work efficiency. With Xiao Zhan's intelligence and experience, it was simply impossible for him to accumulate three to four hours' worth of work every day. The only possibility was that Xiao Zhan intentionally brought the work home to do.

Moreover, it might be because Xiao Zhan himself requested to take on many cases! Wang Yibo didn't dare to look at the cases in Xiao Zhan's hands much, as the gruesome nature of the serious ones was hard to imagine. Occasionally, Wang Yibo would steal a glance, and on one occasion, he saw that Xiao Zhan was reading a case from seven years ago. Logically, the police station wouldn't assign old cases to newcomers to solve.

Appearing to be engrossed in reading the files but actually enjoying Wang Yibo's scent, Xiao Zhan was momentarily stunned, and then an uncontrollable smile crept up at the corner of his mouth.

"You caught me" he said.

Xiao Zhan loved the smart Wang Yibo even more.

Unraveling his intentions had a unique charm - Wang Yibo's confidence and cuteness stirred up Xiao Zhan's desire to prove himself. If it weren't for the fact that Wang Yibo had already made him promise not to engage in any illegal activities, Xiao Zhan would have found ways to commit some crimes and wait for Wang Yibo to uncover them.

He would carry out the deeds so perfectly that only Wang Yibo could see through them.

Xiao Zhan couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if he committed some unforgivable crime, and Wang Yibo, with all his effort and determination, uncovered that he was the perpetrator.
