" Boss 1 , these buns are the best, I tell you."

Xu Lan stuffed the buns in his mouth as well as Bai Wu's. Mouthfuls of steamed buns and swelled-up cheeks did not deter him from lavishing praise on the shop owner.

"Come on Sergeant Xu, you say that every single time you come here. You're too kind," replied the boss, whose eyes gazed at the plethora of age groups that made up a beautifully warm scene in his shop.

"Eh? You –"

Xu Lan had wanted to ask how the shop owner knew his name, and why he was called 'Sergeant Xu', but before he could do so, the news on TV had distracted him.

"And now, the news. At eight this morning police received a report regarding a set of murders that happened in the small district of Jingxinyuan 2 . This is the second time in our city whereby the modus operandi of a crime is identical. We urge all young women to refrain from going out at night or alone."

Why did Xu Lan feel as though it was déjà vu? Not to mention that Jingxinyuan place. Did he not pass by there every single time he took public transport?

Most importantly though, there was another psychopathic murderer on the loose.

"Little buddy, are you full?"

Xu Lan had so many questions for which he was anxious to know the answers to.

"I'm full." The boy wiped his mouth.

"Alright, boss, how much for all this?"

After that, Xu Lan managed to find a clothing store, where he bought some clothes. Walking around half-naked on the streets would certainly have drawn quite a bit of flak from onlookers.

"Papa, carry me."

When Xu Lan walked out of the store with an air of confidence, Bai Wu acted bashfully and coquettishly toward him.

Xu Lan was exactly 180 cm in height. Clothes that were supposed to be loose and baggy fitted him tightly instead. A slight torpidity was present in his vigor, and at a glance, he gave off the impression of being a presentable man.

His mind went blank for a moment, after which an indescribable emotion overcame him. The more he looked at Bai Wu, the cuter the boy seemed.

So be it then if he built a bank 3 ! If worse came to worse, he would just have to endure whatever hardship that may come in the future. As he thought of that, his heart felt warm.

"Come here," said Xu Lan as he squatted down and opened his arms.

Bai Wu's long eyelashes covered the redness in his eyes, and like a little bird returning to its nest, he threw himself into Xu Lan's arms.

"Papa," came the boy's soft purr-like voice. It was welcoming and warm.

"Mm?"

"Papa, looks good."

"Wow little buddy, can't believe you know what's handsome and what's not. Come on, let's go to the police station."

An unexpected scene greeted Xu Lan there. Someone was crying at the entrance of the police station. City folk, who were prepared to give their statements, gathered all around the area and watched the scene unfold.

"Officer! You have to catch that sicko murderer! My daughter was only eighteen. She was still young. This...however you put it, she's gone now!" cried out a forty-five-year-old worker as he held on to a slender young man.
