Chapter 17: Chapter 17 Bad Premonition_1

Translator: 549690339

```

Filled with spiritual power, Shen Tianxing quickly finished making the peace charm.

This peace charm was created using the finest talisman paper as a medium for casting the spiritual power. If Shen Wenzheng had been right in front of her, she wouldn't have even needed the talisman paper. She could have used his body as a vessel and draw the talisman directly into him using the method of drawing in the void, which would have been more effective than a paper talisman.

Shen Tianxing continued to make more peace charms.

She hoped that the family who loved and doted on her in this life could all have a wonderful outcome.

Shen Tianxing, taking into account the total number of people under Old Master Shen's household, made a customized peace charm for each one.

As for her beloved father and mother, who were always by her side every day, she could draw the talisman directly on their bodies.

By seven in the morning, when Shen Wenzheng and his family arrived at Shen Tianxing's house, Shen Tianxing had already finished making all the peace charms.

Feeling the spiritual power drained from her body once again, Shen Tianxing directly handed the peace charms to Shen Wenzheng, and gave three extra talismans to Second Aunt Sun Yazhi and her two younger cousins, Shen Tianyu and Shen Tianrui.

Shen Tianyu and Shen Tianrui were very reluctant to leave Little Xingxing, and they kept saying, "Little Xingxing, we'll come back to keep you company once we have a holiday!"

"Yes, Little Xingxing, don't forget your two brothers, okay? When we come back, we'll bring gifts for Little Xingxing!"

Shen Tianxing gave them a big smile, nodding her little head vigorously to show she understood and wouldn't forget them.

Second Uncle Shen Wenzheng also hugged Shen Tianxing and carefully said to her as if addressing an adult, "Little Xingxing, if Second Uncle really manages to escape this calamity, I must properly thank you!"

Shen Tianxing smiled sweetly at her second uncle and waved her little pink hand, indicating she did not need his thanks.

Her delicate and endearing appearance charmed everyone present.

Shen Wenru, seeing his family fawning over Little Xingxing and feeling a pang of jealousy, quickly reminded them, "Second brother, second sister-in-law, if you don't leave now, you'll be late for work."

It was only then that Shen Wenzheng and his family waved their goodbyes with reluctance.

Shen Tianxing couldn't help but secretly laugh at her father's jealous expression.

Unable to resist the drowsiness, she fell asleep once more.

Shen Tianxing also grumbled to herself that this infant's body really wasn't up to par, easily getting sleepy. Just casting a spell or making a talisman exhausted her so much, and she wailed inwardly, wondering when she would be able to grow up faster.

While Shen Tianxing slept, her Second Uncle Shen Wenzheng and Second Aunt Sun Yazhi rode bicycles, each carrying a child, and hurried towards the city center.

After dropping off their children at school, the couple then hurriedly made their way to their respective workplaces, relieved to find that they were not late.

Shen Wenzheng's current position was as the Head of the Criminal Police Team at the Public Security Bureau.

He had been working in this role for over five years, solving countless cases and capturing innumerable criminals, but had not had the opportunity to be promoted.

Today, he had just stepped into his office, his briefcase not yet set down, when Li Xiaoxi, who was in charge of answering calls, urgently said to him, "Captain Shen, Chief Cheng just called, asking you to take your documents and go to his office right away."

```

Shen Wenzheng responded, "Okay, I'll be right over, thanks!"

He muttered to himself in his heart, "Why did Director Cheng come so early today?"

Li Xiaoxi looked at their capable and handsome captain with a hint of admiration and cheerfully replied, "Captain Shen, don't mention it."

She had just recently joined the Criminal Police Team and had been brainwashed by her colleagues, who told her every day how amazing and wise Captain Shen was, how many cases he had solved, and how many medals he had received.

Initially, Li Xiaoxi was deeply skeptical of their claims, finding it hard to believe that there could still be such a thing as individual heroism in Shenzhou Country.

But before long, after having thoroughly learned about Shen Wenzheng, Li Xiaoxi, like her colleagues, joined the ranks of those who secretly and fervently admired their Criminal Police Team's hero, becoming one of Captain Shen's die-hard fans.

Back in his own office, Shen Wenzheng quickly took out his keys, opened his desk drawer, and pulled out the file folder that was pressing in the middle of a stack.

He carefully opened and checked it again, and after making sure there were no issues, he then took the file folder and walked towards Director Cheng's office.

Director Cheng was his mentor, the one who had single-handedly groomed him and then promoted him to this position of Criminal Police Team captain.

The director was also sixty years old this year and was about to retire soon.

Director Cheng always said that once he retired, Shen Wenzheng would have to work even harder to make his own way.

Shen Wenzheng took the old director's words to heart.

Over the years, if it weren't for the old director's full support behind him, he wouldn't have been able to solve so many cases or achieve so much.

Upon reaching Director Cheng's office, there sat an elderly man, his brows and hair tinged with gray, but his posture in the office chair was still as straight as a pine.

Shen Wenzheng held great respect for this mentor and guide of his.

After entering the director's office, he first greeted Director Cheng and then handed over the file folder in his hands, "Director Cheng, here's the information on Case 928 for you to review."

Director Cheng uttered a light "Hmm" and took the file folder from Shen Wenzheng, then gestured to him, "Sit down then let's talk!"

The old man's face bore only seriousness today, without a trace of a smile, as if something was about to happen. Even the usually composed Shen Wenzheng started to feel uneasy.

After Director Cheng finished reviewing the materials, he let out a long sigh before addressing Shen Wenzheng, "Wenzheng, you are the best criminal police captain in my eyes. With your outstanding personal achievements, it's more than enough for you to be promoted one or two levels, but sometimes, people need a bit of luck. Only when the time, place, and people align can you continue to ascend. Therefore, don't lose your true self over temporary gains and losses."

Shen Wenzheng immediately thought of his beloved niece's words to him, mentioning that he was destined for high office and wealth, but a deadly challenge awaited him soon.

He didn't know what Director Cheng meant by suddenly saying this to him today.

But, it was enough to put Shen Wenzheng on alert.

After all, Shen Wenzheng was a man who had weathered many storms. Having worked in the Criminal Police Team for so many years, he had faced all sorts of major events. Despite the inner turmoil and bad premonitions, he still smiled at Director Cheng, "Director Cheng, you're right. Fortune comes with luck, and loss is fated. No matter what, I, Shen Wenzheng, will always stay true to my principles and keep doing my job well, serving the people tirelessly."

Director Cheng looked at Shen Wenzheng's resolute and unyielding face, a flash of complexity and reluctance crossing the depths of his eyes…
