"Why did the Philos family recommend you to the police station? Don't tell me what kind of newcomer experience this is. ”

After carefully reading the letter of recommendation in her hand, Sheriff Caitlin was puzzled.

She turned her gaze back to the girl in front of her, a fair-skinned and quiet beautiful girl, sitting upright in her seat with a smile and a very decent demeanor.

But it was such a gentle and easy-going girl who made Caitlyn look at her with scrutiny, as if she was looking at some kind of flood beast.

It is not uncommon for large families to insert their own spies into the police station for training, but when they learned about the recommended parties, Catelyn was still shocked.

Although she had done it many times, she had never resisted such a thing as she did now.

"My father can't wait, you haven't made any progress in three years. Let it go, and I'll take your place. ”

Caitlin thought that the other party would say some polite words tactfully, and then reveal some things, but she didn't expect the other party to say the purpose directly. This made her heart sink, and sure enough, the person who came was not good.

"Jiena, I won't let you get away with it. Want to replace me? You'd better start with a small police officer. ”

"As you wish."

The girl quietly left the office, leaving Caitlin rubbing her temples and muttering alone. "What the hell is he trying to do? It was deliberately aimed at me...... Or is the Philos family going to take control of the entire police station? ”

It all started three years ago.

At that time, the relationship between Caitlyn and Jeno was much better than now, they had a lot of private contacts on weekdays, and suddenly they were pleasing to the eye, and even her parents liked this young man very much, and urged her many times to marry someone she liked.

But on the night when the relationship was almost confirmed, Jeno made a condition that Caitlin couldn't accept - she could marry into the Philos family, but she would have to resign from the police station and enter the house without any rights.

"What are you kidding? I'm marrying you and not I'm marrying the Philos group, so why should I resign from the position of sheriff? At that time, Caitlyn quarreled with Jeno, and it was not uncommon for her to marry into a wealthy family as a broad wife, so she was disgusted by the loss of freedom and independence when she became a caged bird.

"That's mostly what Camille meant."

"Primarily? And what about the secondary? Caitlyn knew someone was involved, and it turned out that Camille was watching out for her. A righteous sheriff who can freely enter and leave the family mansion is indeed something that every family does not want to see.

"I don't want you to keep doing it, it's too dangerous."

"My parents have said this to me countless times."

Caitlin's parents also don't want their daughter to be overdrawn 5-to-9 for a high-risk job, and as weapons experts, they don't care about Caitlyn's hard-earned money. But even this failed to sway the strong Caitlyn, and she made it to the position of Sheriff of Leather City under great pressure.

But even so, her efforts are still insignificant in front of the big family, and with a little design, the isolated sheriff will lose everything overnight.

It is said that once she enters a wealthy family, it is as deep as the sea, and now she knows. Career and love are the best choices, and this choice cannot be refused.

Her heart did not allow her to give up and step down like this, but reason told her that she could not give up this hard-won feeling. In the end, in the midst of all these entanglements, she sought a compromise from Jeno.

"Can you let me find out about my parents' kidnapping case before I resign?"

"Caitlin, you've been a sheriff for almost five years, and you still don't have a clue about that case. And next year you're going to be thirty, why waste your youth on this. ”

The selfish words "Can't even you understand me......" chilled Caitlyn's heart.

It's okay to do this business without being supported by her parents, and now even Jeno has to let her give up. She suddenly felt extremely tired and shaky.

In the end, Jeno saw Caitlin's haggard appearance, and he couldn't bear to compromise: "I'll give you three years to investigate the case of Organization C, and if there is no result by then, I will personally help you make a choice." ”

Caitlin was dizzy and agreed without much thought. When she came to her senses, Jeno had melted into the night and left. and rarely met her in private since then, as if the two had broken off their relationship.

She couldn't guess what Jeno was thinking, he wanted her to solve the case wholeheartedly? Or take this opportunity to leave her justifiably. It's a lot harder to guess than a criminal mind. She once thought that the two had gone on a strange path, and the vows they had made were gone.

And now, three years have almost passed, and she still has no clue.

It wasn't until Jenna suddenly appeared that she realized again that Jeno had been watching her all along.

Something like this happened, and Caitlin was in no mood for a long day's work. She suddenly wanted to drink alcohol, and she couldn't drink alcohol during work, so she waited until after work and asked Wei to bring her a bottle.

Caitlin had a drink in her hand and locked herself in the door as soon as she got home. And the two elders are very curious about this, Caitlin, who usually works overtime until late at night, and will leave work on time today.

The lights in the room quickly dimmed, and Caitlin stripped off her underwear and collapsed on the bed, her hands on her forehead thinking about what had happened in the past three years.

She worked hard to solve the case and arrest the murderer, and cleared up many hidden dangers for the city. But those criminals are like weeds, cutting a stubble and soon growing another stubble, but there is no clue about the C organization that kidnapped her parents.

She didn't know what she was working so hard for, she had climbed to the top of her profession, and there was no room for promotion. But she still can't change the composition of the police department, which is just a puppet agency under the intervention and control of various forces, specially used to control public opinion and clean up the mess left by the secret agents.

Compared to Jeno, Caitlyn felt that the past three years had been in vain.

Since the completion of the Sungate Power Station, the Philos Group has launched a series of pre-designed electrical appliances one after another, frantically amassing wealth. Now, by virtue of its monopoly position in the new energy industry, it has surpassed other families in one fell swoop and has become the largest family chaebol in Piltover.

Jeno, who frequently appears in public to explain its advanced design concepts to people, has become the spokesperson of the Philos Group.

In the past, the Philos Group might have to test her if they wanted to move her, but now it's a matter of words, and every time she thinks about it, Caitlyn feels a lot of pressure.

It is foreseeable that if Jeno comes to the truth, then Jenna will soon replace her as the sheriff, and what will she do when she is facing unemployment? Do you really want to marry and be a stay-at-home wife?

With the help of alcohol, Caitlin emptied her brain and fell into a groggy sleep.

For the rest of the year, Caitlyn was still fully investigating the kidnapping case that year. didn't wait for the other party to show his feet, but first waited for the news that the regional governor asked her to take a long vacation.

Caitlin couldn't accept this, and although she hadn't been stripped of her title as sheriff, her powers had been hollowed out and she could no longer use the resources of the police department. Without these resources, it would have been even more difficult for her to personally investigate Organization C.

She angrily found Jenna, took her to a no-man's corner and asked, "Where is Jeno?" I want to see him! ”

"Father, he's waiting for you at the old place." Jenna didn't mean to taunt Caitlin, she replied calmly, as if she had done a trivial task.

"The old place?"

……

Caitlin came to the clock tower where she usually fed the pigeons, and at the top of the stairs she saw the man who had been far away from her.

He was dressed in a crisp uniform, leaning one shoulder against the wall, looking down at her condescendingly. That look made Caitlin, who had just left her job, realize the unequal status between them.

Now he is the richest man in the world, and Piltover, who controls everything in the plutocracy, is equivalent to an emperor, a person that Caitlin cannot afford to mess with in any way.

"Jeno." As she spoke, Catherine felt that the name was a little rusty.

"Are you here to complain about the injustice you have suffered? I've given you a chance, but you're useless. Jeno watched her speak lightly, his voice unchanged from before, but his words were tingling, as if he was deliberately trying to provoke her anger.

"Why is the Philos family so blatantly controlling the police station? You asked Jenna to replace me, it's definitely not just for me to get out of power! ”

Caitlin ignored Jeno's cynicism, but his actions made her feel that the relationship had turned sour.

"We do want to implement some strategies to suppress other families through the police department, and as for more information, we will slowly learn when you marry into the Philos family."

No big family will let its influence stay in a certain field, controlling the police station is equivalent to controlling public opinion, and how powerful the power of public opinion is, Jeno knows very well.

"Nope! I don't promise! Caitlin resisted and became a caged canary. She resolutely refused, until Jeno asked with a frosty face.

"You're going to break the contract?"

Caitlin met his gaze fearlessly, "Even if Sheriff Caitlin is in name only, I will continue to investigate Organization C as a private investigator as before." I don't have to worry about the trouble of the police station, maybe my efficiency will be improved. ”

These words made Jeno angry and helpless, and he had to break her naïve illusion and be stubble.

"Don't be stupid, it must have been done by a big family, which small character would dare to kidnap your parents to develop new weapons? You can't even find out when you're at the police station, let alone go it alone. Information that won't be open to civilians, you won't be able to find it even if you rack your brains. And now that you have left the police station and have no background, once exposed, they can even pinch you to death without any scruples! ”

The cruelty of reality didn't need Jeno to teach Caitlyn, just something she couldn't see and needed him to mention it.

"You say people of my level can't access that information?" Shocked, Caitlin ignored most of the warnings and focused her attention on a certain point...... She seems to have found a breakthrough in the case from Jeno's words.

Looking at Caitlin's thoughtful expression, Jeno knew she was about to take another adventure.

"Even if you are a sheriff, if you don't have a family background, you will always be just an outsider!" He pinched her chin, domineeringly straightened her face to himself, and shouted another sharp warning.

"Do you know anything about Organization C?" Catelyn met his eyes.

The eyes were too sharp for her to look at, but she had to force herself to look at him intently, trying to see even the slightest hint of dodge in the depths of his pupils. so that she can be sure that what he said is true or that it is still to scare her.

"I don't know." Jano shook his head, then leaned into Catelyn's ear and whispered, "But I know that if you still want to continue investigating this matter, then join the Philos family, I can guarantee that you will gain more power because of it, and with the support of the family, you and your parents will be much safer." And you can also use this to ask Jena in the police station to help you... In this way, don't look at your resignation, but in fact, you only have a lot more resources in your hands. Moreover, no one has ever said that a wife cannot work as a private detective......"

Jaynor's whispers moved Caitlin like a demon's whisper, and she began to think of a different way to solve the puzzle that had plagued her for more than a decade, no matter what, she would never let the mysterious C-organization continue to go unpunished.

When she came back to her senses, she suddenly found that the atmosphere had become beautiful.

"How... Have you thought about it? ”

The frivolous words still seemed to echo in his ears, and the heavy male breath fluttered on the smooth neck. This mature but unmined body could not withstand any teasing, and soon she fell into the gentle country.

"Uh-huh......" she replied.
