For some time now, He Yongan had been on edge whenever his wife, Feng Qingqing, took their two children to the City God Temple. Even while attending classes at the Party School, his mind would occasionally drift to his wife and children. Fortunately, nothing untoward had happened in the recent past, but he remained unable to relax, knowing full well that any number of incidents could occur in that area. While he knew his wife was well-prepared, she was still managing two young children; he worried that even with her skills, she might find herself outnumbered.
He didn't expect to walk into their room today and find his wife sitting in her chair, looking as if she had encountered a major problem. He immediately asked her what was wrong. Upon seeing him, Feng Qingqing looked over at their two children, who were still fast asleep, and without delay, recounted exactly what had transpired that day. Since He Yongan was a criminal investigator, she trusted his perspective to be more rational, cautious, and objective than her own.
As she had expected, He Yongan frowned after hearing her account. He felt that the events were far too coincidental. While his wife had some information about Auntie Shen and her son, it was all hearsay. They had no real, on-the-ground intelligence, and he knew they would need to conduct a thorough investigation before drawing any conclusions.
