Chapter 261: Escape from the neighborhood and sneak into another house (Part 2)

"What should we do now?" Niu Rui wilted.

"You..." Jiang Fuyue suddenly paused.

Just now, a black shadow flashed quickly past her eyes. Combined with the direction of the sunlight, if her judgment was correct, the person should be not far behind her!

The other party probably realized that the sunlight would leave a shadow, so he quickly moved away and hid.

Unfortunately, she still caught a glimpse of it.

"You idiot, the other party has already found us!" Jiang Fuyue cursed and quickly hung up.

Niu Rui: “!”

Without much hesitation, Jiang Fuyue ran away.

When the other party saw that she had discovered him, he no longer hid, but flashed out from behind the rockery and chased after her relentlessly.

After passing the pavilion and passing through an artificial bamboo forest, Jiang Fuyue hid in a corner and the other party did not catch up with him for the time being.

She looked up and saw the balcony of the master bedroom of a detached villa. Listening to the approaching footsteps, she wiped out the footprints as quickly as possible, then supported herself on the stone platform with both hands, exerted force, jumped up, directly onto the balcony, and then hid in the bedroom.

Zhu Qifeng chased here and suddenly stopped, looking around: "Where are the people?"

He was a criminal investigation major and had a strong and sharp insight. He squatted down and searched for a long time but did not find any footprints.

"No..." The man's brows suddenly tightened.

He was very sure that the direction he was chasing was correct, and the girl was indeed running in this direction.

In addition, the surrounding terrain is open, with no rockery, trees, pavilions or other shelters, so there is almost nowhere to hide...

"Where did you go?"

He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.

The other end quickly answered: "Hello! Captain Zhu!"

"Xiao Liu, help me adjust the surveillance of the residential complex in Yutian Huafu, the A3 area."

"Is there a specific CCTV number? If I remember correctly, the areas starting with A in Yutian Huafu are all single-family villas. They cover a large area and have many cameras. If we check them one by one, it will take at least 40 minutes."

By then, I'm afraid the daylily will be cold.

Zhu Qifeng: "Where can I find the CCTV number?"

"This... seems to be known only to the community property management."

Zhu Qifeng: “…”

"However, there's a pattern to how surveillance cameras are arranged in residential areas. Generally speaking, to ensure full coverage, at least one camera should be installed every twenty meters. This way, any camera's surveillance range will intersect with the ranges of its neighbors. Counting the intersections in a clockwise direction gives you the CCTV number."

Zhu Qifeng narrowed his eyes and glanced at the two red-lit cameras opposite him. Fifteen seconds later—

“36, 37!”

"...That's right! These are the two cameras, Captain Zhu, I've already seen you."

"Hurry up and check if a girl passed by two minutes ago? Which direction did she run in?"

"Yes!" The sound of keyboard clicking was heard in the Criminal Investigation Brigade's dedicated computer room.

There were two young policemen in uniform standing nearby, staring at the screen in amazement.

"Captain Zhu is amazing! He actually figured out the closed-circuit number in such a short time. Did he figure it out?"

The police officer operating the computer gave a positive answer: "This can only be calculated."

"Captain Zhu is awesome! This time studying with the team was worth it."

"Captain Zhu knows a lot more. These are just small cases. You will understand them slowly."

The two policemen were surprised again.

Suddenly, the keyboard tapping stopped. Xiao Liu stared at the screen, his brows furrowed. He asked into his Bluetooth headset, "Captain Zhu, did you say you wanted to check the surveillance footage from a few minutes ago?"

Zhu Qifeng: "Two minutes. What's wrong?"

Xiao Liu: "I fast-forwarded through the first ten minutes of the surveillance footage, and besides you, no one else appeared."

"Impossible! She must have gone this way."

Xiao Liu's brows furrowed even more tightly: "Are you sure?"

"Sure!"

"But..." Xiao Liu watched it again, this time including the first fifteen minutes, "It really isn't there."

Zhu Qifeng's eyes darkened suddenly: "I understand, I'll hang up first."

"Hello? Captain Zhu, I... Hello?!" Xiao Liu took off his Bluetooth headset in frustration and slammed it on the table.

"What's wrong, Brother Liu?" The young policeman Xiao A looked puzzled.

"It's okay, we just didn't find anything that Captain Zhu asked us to check."

Little B thought about it and guessed, "Maybe Captain Zhu made a mistake in judgment, so..."

Xiao Liu shook his head: "Captain Zhu said he ran in that direction, so it must be in that direction. There's no way he could be wrong."

"Why? From the surveillance footage just now, that residential complex is quite large. They could have run in any direction. If the other party had any common sense, they wouldn't have gone into a blind spot."

The place where Captain Zhu was standing just now was obviously a blind spot. There was no way to escape forward, and there was no obstruction on either side, so he could be discovered at a glance.

"That's true, but I trust Captain Zhu's judgment more."

The two young policemen looked at each other, confused.

"Let me put it this way," Xiao Liu clapped his hands. "Surveillance footage can be wrong, and the human eye can be dazzled, but Captain Zhu's affirmative judgment is never wrong. I've been with him for seven years, handling hundreds, if not thousands, of cases, and not once has he made a mistake."

"Hiss—so powerful? Is this true?"

Xiao Liu snorted, "Otherwise, how do you think the name 'Detective' came about?"

"Brother Liu, I actually have a question that I've been holding back for a long time but never dared to ask." Little A scratched his head.

"What's the problem? Tell me."

"Hasn't the Kangtai Hospital incident been handed over to the procuratorate? We've already compiled and submitted all the necessary evidence and materials. Strictly speaking, the case should be closed here. But why is Captain Zhu still investigating the surveillance footage?"

Xiao Liu spread his hands and shrugged. "No way. Captain Zhu is as famous for his curiosity as for his investigative skills."

"curiosity?"

"Yeah, aren't you curious? Why were all the surveillance cameras working fine when the hospital was sealed off, but broke down the night Shi Youmin jumped from the building?"

"Didn't the investigation report say that the excessive voltage caused a short circuit and blew out the fuse?"

Xiao Liu snapped his fingers. "That's right, the fuse is blown. Shouldn't the two cameras that should have captured Shi Youmin jumping off the building also malfunction?"

"Isn't there?" Little A swallowed.

"Of course not. You know what—" Xiao Liu suddenly lowered his voice and leaned forward, "The surveillance footage from those two cameras showed the entire process of Mr. K being pushed off the rooftop by Shi Youmin!"

"Huh? Wasn't that a year ago?"

"Bingo! It was exactly a year ago, but it appeared in the surveillance video that night. Weird, isn't it?"

"Liu, Brother Liu, please stop talking. I'm getting goosebumps."

"Coward!"

Little B pondered for a moment, "But that's not what the internet says..."

"Do we dare to publish the specific details online? Wouldn't that cause an uproar? Would the whole country come to see a supernatural event?"

"But... isn't this a good thing? Otherwise, after so much time has passed, where would I find evidence that Mr. K was murdered by Shi Youmin?"

Xiao Liu nodded: "It's a good thing."

"Then what about Captain Zhu..."

"Didn't I just say that? Captain Zhu is very curious. He wants to meet the master behind this, so he has been investigating since the incident."

"Master? What master?"

Xiao Liu sighed, "You're so stupid, but you actually installed it? Use your brain! How could the surveillance camera be replaced for no reason?"

"What else?"

"Someone must have tampered with it! And they didn't clean up the mess properly. Captain Zhu has caught them by the tail."

"But what does this have to do with Captain Zhu's Yutian Mansion?"

Xiao Liu: "Captain Zhu found an intruder's IP address on the hospital computer. Although the traces have been erased, who is Captain Zhu? There's nothing he can't do. He tinkered with it and restored it. Then he found that the other party's address was within the imperial capital."

"The Imperial Capital? How is it related to the Imperial Capital?"

"Who knows? Captain Zhu used this to infer that the other party, who was able to grasp the information so quickly and take action in a timely manner, must have helpers in Linhuai, so he followed the clues to find the culprit."

"How, how do you do it?"

"Hey! Captain Zhu was monitoring the other party's phone in one direction. As soon as he found out that he had contacted Linhuai, he immediately took action. Didn't he find Yutian Huafu?"

"But aren't all the people living in Yutianhua Mansion rich?"

"Yeah... rich people can also be knights? They see injustice and help others, and they took down that Dean Shi?"

At this time, the knight Jiang Fuyue was hiding in someone's master bedroom, cursing the person on the other end of the phone as an idiot!
