Seeing the crime scene flashbacks made me the darling of the police station.

Chapter 228: Has the Weiyang Palace made its move?

Chapter 228: They went back to Weiyang Palace and took action?

Two days later.

Zhuang Yanzheng's eyesight has improved somewhat. Although he still feels like there's a layer in front of his eyes, he can at least see some things now.

The police officer who was injured in the hospital is also out of danger.

However, there is still no news from Qin City, making the investigation difficult.

Pretending to be tourists visiting the reservoir, they drove around the mountain and talked to the fish farmers, but didn't find anything unusual.

I bought two chickens.

I didn't dare go there too often, for fear of being discovered.

Besides the aquaculture area on the mountain, the guesthouses, the dormitories by the reservoir, the dam gate, and the water level observation area were all secretly investigated, and nothing unusual was found.

"If it's not on the mountain, where would it be?" Su Miaoyi suddenly asked, looking at the map. "Kang Hong said that every time he was blindfolded, he couldn't tell what kind of road he was on. Sometimes it felt like a mountain road, and sometimes he couldn't tell."

Yesterday, she and Zhuang Yanzheng went to the hospital again.

"Have you been going to the same place all the time?" Lu Zhishen asked.

Kang Hong said yes.

“Some people may not be very sensitive to direction or the feeling of being on the road,” Yan Cheng said.

Su Miaoyi nodded.

“Besides the reservoir, this is a village. Drug production would have a smell, so it’s unlikely to be in the village, right?” Chu Xingrou said. “If there were an odor in the village, someone would definitely have reported it to the village committee.”

"Will people in the village cover for each other?" Qi Feng asked.

The group exchanged glances.

“This village doesn’t have a large population, only about 300 households,” Qi Feng said. “Students go to school outside the village starting from middle school. Almost all of them go to school and then stay to work. The people left in the village are mostly in their fifties or sixties.”

"Lin Yue's men entered the village and secretly took some photos," Zhuang Yanzheng projected on the screen.

Several people looked at it.

“It doesn’t seem like it,” Chu Xingrou said. “The income level in this village doesn’t seem to be very high.”

"They all used their earnings to buy houses elsewhere, so there are a lot of old houses and a relatively small population."

“Unless the whole village does it together, there are too many people in the village to keep quiet. To be honest, there are no secrets, and it will definitely be reported,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

They could only analyze and discuss the photos Lin Yue sent back, and the results were very limited. After the analysis, they still needed to verify the information from the other side.

Zhang Bai still didn't say anything.

He shouted for two days and then stopped. Then he developed a high fever, his throat swelled up, and he couldn't shout anymore.

Qin City and Jinghai began to formulate new plans and change their exploration strategies.

Another day has passed quickly.

It's about nine o'clock in the evening.

Yan Cheng drove Zhuang Yanzheng and Su Miaoyi home.

The three people all lived on the same line.

Yan Cheng's house is in the next neighborhood to Zhuang Yanzheng's house, so they're both on the way.

"Have your parents come back?" Zhuang Yanzheng asked.

"Yes," Yan Cheng said. "How did you know?"

You seem to be in a good mood.

“I also think you’ve been looking quite energetic these past few days. You’re usually energetic, but you’ve been even more so these past few days,” Su Miaoyi said from behind.

"Is it that obvious?" Yan Cheng smiled slightly.

“You do this every time your parents come back. And you leave work earlier than usual,” Zhuang Yanzheng said.

Yan Cheng smiled and said, "My mom misses me. They come back to stay for a week after they finish work. Only a week, because my mom says that staying any longer might affect our mother-son relationship."

Su Miaoyi smiled: "Will it still be like that?"

"Won't you get tired of living at home for so long?" Yan Cheng asked, then immediately replied, "I'm sorry."

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about," Su Miaoyi said, patting Zhuang Yanzheng on the shoulder. "I'll answer on your behalf using part of my memory storage card."

Zhuang Yanzheng clicked his tongue as she slapped him hard: "You sure know how to find people."

Su Miaoyi gestured for them to proceed.

"Qin Ting is a doting father to his daughter; he wishes she were home every day," Zhuang Yanzheng said.

Su Miaoyi remembered Qin Chengyuan's face.

He's quite serious. I can't imagine what he's like at home.

Su Miaoyi thought Qin Chengyuan would be the kind of person who would handcuff and severely discipline anyone in the family who made a mistake.

Back at Weiyang Palace, Su Miaoyi stepped out of the elevator and walked a few steps toward herself before suddenly stopping.

Something's not right, there's someone at her door.

She can't see the doorway from where she's standing, and the motion-activated lights aren't on.

But she could sense that there were people in the darkness, and more than one.

Su Miaoyi stopped in her tracks, her hand just touching her phone in her bag, when suddenly someone at the door came toward her.

Her hand was on the power button. She pressed it twice, and on the third press, she recognized who it was. She immediately released her hand from the power button.

It is Qin Chengyuan.

Su Miaoyi was stunned for a moment, then she saw Shen Shilan behind Qin Chengyuan.

While they were still in a daze, Qin Chengyuan was already in front of them.

Su Miaoyi subconsciously raised her hand to block.

Qin Chengyuan smiled and launched another attack.

Before Su Miaoyi could even process what was happening, her hands had already begun to move.

After a few defensive maneuvers, just as my body was instinctively preparing to attack, my mind came to my senses.

No.

This is the leader.

She withdrew her hand again.

Then Qin Chengyuan twisted her hands behind her back and pressed down on her shoulder with his other hand.

He moved very gently and without using any force.

Su Miaoyi did not resist and said, "I didn't expect Director Qin to be so skilled."

Hearing her words, Qin Chengyuan chuckled and released her: "Not as good as you."

"No way, you subdued me in no time. I still need to practice more." Su Miaoyi flattered, "In front of you, I'm like a sapling seeing a towering tree."

Shen Shilan smiled from the side.

Qin Chengyuan usually dislikes people who are glib and flattering.

But this is different.

People are different.

These are the words of my daughter.

He loves to hear it.

"You should be secretly happy," Shen Shilan whispered as she passed by him.

Qin Chengyuan coughed lightly.

"Are you alright?" Shen Shilan asked, looking at Su Miaoyi.

“No,” Su Miaoyi continued, “It’s all thanks to Director Qin’s leniency.”

Qin Chengyuan's back straightened a bit.

Shen Shilan said, "We just arrived not long ago. We saw you go upstairs from Yan Zhou's window, so he came out and I followed him out."
