Chapter 308 What is the purpose

Although the little girl is very Buddhist in her actions, the remaining genes in her bones cannot be changed.

Si Chen raised his hand and rubbed Lin Ting's hair twice, "Since you have decided to stay, we will do our best to protect your safety. You are not allowed to leave our sight, act without authorization, or put yourself in danger on your own initiative. All plans must be made known to us.

If Tingting disagrees, I will ask Director Song to kick you out of this project."

There was a hint of doting and seriousness in Si Chen's tone.

Lin Ting surprisingly did not reject Si Chen's head-touching. When she was a child, she did not reject other children touching her hair. Besides the fact that people heard that touching the head would make one grow taller, it was mainly because she did not like contact from strangers. When she was a child, apart from her grandparents, parents, only Lin Jing was allowed to touch her hair.

This was also the case when she grew up. Even though Lu Liang was her ex-boyfriend, she never let him touch her.

She now has some doubts as to whether she was with Lu Liang before just because she was moved by the false illusion of love he created for her.

She doesn't like Luliang at all.

Feelings can deceive people, but the body cannot.

Not only did she not feel repulsed by Si Chen's touch, she even felt a wonderful feeling spreading in her heart.

Just as her heart was beating violently, the closed door was knocked twice. Before the two of them could prepare, Wu Dachuan's voice rang out from outside the door, "Boss, listen to me, it's us."

After confirming that they were friendly forces, the two of them felt relieved. Before they could get up to open the door, Ping An had already arrived at the entrance.

Ping'an first jumped onto the shoe cabinet at the entrance, and with the help of the shoe cabinet, he jumped directly onto the door handle. He pressed hard with his front and back feet, and the tightly closed door opened.

Seeing Ping An helping him open the door, Wu Dachuan picked up Ping An and held him in his arms. After getting to know them more often, the police officers in the station treated these kittens like treasures.

When Wu Dachuan and others came in with the kitten, the two of them had already done everything properly.

In addition to Wu Dachuan, people from the Trace Inspection Department followed and began to process the fragments of the people's organization, and mentioned the fingerprint clues left on the photos and express delivery.

Before Wu Dachuan could speak, Si Chen's cold voice rang out in the room, "How's the investigation going?"

Wu Dachuan spoke first, "I've checked all the nearby surveillance cameras. This person has been wearing a courier's uniform since he appeared in the surveillance footage, complete with a baseball cap and a mask. He's wrapped himself tightly, and none of the surveillance cameras have captured his face."

"We pulled up the video of the man who was following Sister Ting. After comparing them, the two people are almost identical in height and build. They are likely the same person. We still need to wait for the fingerprint or other reports from the Trace Examination Department to confirm."

Lin Ting shook his head, "Don't hold your hopes too high."

Upon hearing this, Wu Dachuan immediately frowned.

Lin Ting explained calmly, "This person has been wearing gloves and has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities. I'm afraid he won't leave fingerprints on these items."

Even if she couldn't find any actual evidence, her sixth sense told her that the two people should be the same person.

"What's the situation over there?" Si Chen looked at the other person.

Li Cheng said truthfully, "I checked with the courier company, and they said this tracking number has never been in their system. It's certain that this tracking number must have been deliberately forged by the suspect."

"They're following Sister Ting while pretending to be a courier to deliver these things to her. I can't figure out what their purpose is."

"If the next target is Sister Ting, you can just go after her directly. There's no need to send these things to her. Given her relationship with us, sending them here will definitely alert the police. Even if she has nothing to do with us, as a normal person, the first reaction would be to call the police."

"Could it be that he knew Sister Ting had been helping the police with their cases, and sent these things to her on purpose to provoke her? It's not like there haven't been criminal suspects who have done this before."

Li Cheng and Wu Dachuan were discussing with each other.

Judging from what has been delivered so far, it seems more likely to be a provocation.

A forensic doctor came over holding two severed fingers. "Captain Si can tell from these two fingers that they were cut from a female body, probably between 20 and 30 years old. The fingers were frozen, so the exact time of death cannot be determined."

"The cross section is very neat, with no traces of blood splatter..."

The forensic doctor withdrew his gaze from his fingers and looked at the few people with an expression that seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Through the forensic micro-expressions, Si Chen and Lin Ting had already guessed what he wanted to say.

Si Chen said coldly, "Just say it."

"Based on the simple inference from the severed fingers, their owners are already deceased. This is clearly a posthumous cut. The neat marks likely came from a tool like a cutter. An ordinary kitchen knife or axe wouldn't be able to cut this much."

"That's all we can infer from just one severed finger. You'll need to find the body as soon as possible before making any inferences. I'll go back and take a DNA sample and search the missing persons database to see if there's any information on the victim who's been reported."

"Thank you for your help." Si Chen stood up and saw them off.

After sending off the people from the Trace Inspection Department and the Forensic Department, Si Chen quickly returned and said, "I heard that it's no longer safe for you to live here. Do you want me to take you to Lin Jing's place or the Lin family's old house to rest?"

It will take some time to find the location in the photo. Although we can make a simple judgment through the photo, there are many rivers and factories in Jiangcheng, especially factories. Jiangcheng developed on the basis of these factories in the early years. With the changes in industry, many factories have closed down.

Those abandoned factories have been left here without being demolished or rebuilt, and there are still hundreds of them, large and small.

They need to check each photo one by one, which takes a lot of time.

"Send me back to the Lin family's old house to rest for a night. Don't tell Lin Jing about this for now. If Lin Jing finds out, I don't know how he will blame me. It will be much easier to fool my grandfather. Just say that I miss him and went back to see him. He will definitely believe it."

Lin Ting had nothing to pack, as the Lin family had plenty of clothes.

The old man even asked Aunt Zhang to keep toiletries ready for her at all times in case she suddenly came home and had nothing to use.

Every season, new clothes from various brands would be sent to the Lin family's old house first. Grandpa Lin would leave some at the old house and send the rest to her house here. He would even send someone to deliver a few pieces to her parents' villa to ensure that she would have clothes to wear no matter where she lived.

Lin Ting only needed to take the silver ring snake and Ping An Fat Tiger with him.

As the sky grew darker, there were no more vehicles on the road.

Their car had a smooth journey and soon arrived at the Lin family's old villa area.

The management of the villa area here is extremely strict. You need to swipe your ID card to enter. If you don’t have an ID card, you must call someone in the villa to pick you up.
