"Correct. We need to find out what actually happened thirteen years ago." Xu Lan nodded affirmatively.

"Alright. Xie San, do a search on what transpired thirteen years ago in that mine in Chengdu. Dig up on our criminal who thinks it's never too late to take revenge!"

"Yes!"

Since everyone was there, Meng Chengjun expressed his desire to treat everyone to a meal and do the honors as a host. Xu Lan had no excuses, so in the end, even Bai Wu was dragged along.

Everyone was elated with the new development in the case and drank a fair amount of alcohol. After dinner, they decided to go for a karaoke session. Xu Lan's brain throbbed from the noise of the raucous group of men, so he decided to go out for some fresh air.

As soon as Xu Lan stood up, Bai Wu stood up too.

"What are you doing?" Xu Lan questioned coldly when he realized Bai Wu wanted to help him up.

"I...what is Papa doing?" Bai Wu asked uneasily.

"Why do I have to tell you? If I go and take a piss, are you going to hold my d*ck for me too?"

Although Xu Lan refrained from drinking too much, his alcohol tolerance was low. Those sentences made Bai Wu feel even more uneasy. Wang Hao noticed the tension between those two and offered them a glass each, then he dragged Bai Wu over to join the karaoke.

Xu Lan originally intended to get some air, but after drinking, nature called. He wanted to smoke when he sat down on the toilet bowl, when he realized something: he had given up smoking since God-knows-when! He clicked his tongue.

"Xiao Feng! You motherf*cker!" Xu Lan could hear those words clearly despite being under the influence of alcohol. In Whitehorse Hotel, Xu Lan regarded Wang Meng as the most amusing person, mainly because his appearance had a sense of familiarity.

"I'll f*ck you!" A thump was heard as someone was pushed against the wall. Xiao Feng was raging in a low voice.

"You motherf*cker, you're crazy you know that? When did I say I wanted to go there? Do you think it's worthwhile for me to meet a sl*t?" Wang Meng felt hurt.

"Then why did you send a message to rendezvous with him? You wanna go and f*ck somewhere tonight? I'm not f*cking you enough?"

Xiao Feng's words through clenched teeth could be heard. Xu Lan sat on the toilet bowl unable to defecate, yet he did not dare to get up.

"Rr! You motherf*cker, you went through my phone!" Considering Wang Meng's temper, it was likely that he jumped up. With another thump, he was pushed against the door.

"You think you're so holy? I f*ck who I wanna f*ck! The f*ck does it have to do with you? Let me go! I...hngg..." What followed next was the sound of wet smacking and two bodies colliding with each other.

"F*ck! Are you a b*tch in heat?"

"..."

The voices finally ceased, and the sound of an opening door was heard soon after. Xu Lan could finally breathe in a breath of fresh air. He sobered up significantly.

Neither Xiao Feng nor Wang Meng was present in the room when Xu Lan went back. Bai Wu went up to him immediately.

"Papa, where did you go just now?" he asked worryingly. Apart from the toilet on the same floor which was undergoing maintenance, Bai Wu searched every other toilet in the building and still could not find Xu Lan. In the end, he just sat back down and waited.

Xu Lan looked at Bai Wu then sat down and drank some alcohol to ease his shock. Once he confirmed that those two were Wang Hao and Xiao Feng, he drank another glass. Since the members of the task force could not get a hold of Xu Lan previously, they immediately surrounded him and persuaded him to play a drinking game the instant he sat down. One round was all it took to intoxicate him again.

Noticing Xu Lan's return, Xiao Zhang also went up to him. Other colleagues from Team 2 followed suit. It was yet another round of drinking, and by then Xu Lan already felt lightheaded.

"Papa, don't drink anymore," Bai Wu pleaded softly as he tugged at Xu Lan's shirt.
