Chapter 116 These two seem to have some skills.

Is it that cold?

Yu Qing stood behind Xiao Wang, holding a small fan, looking at the two of them with a somewhat speechless expression.

When Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu heard someone speaking behind them, they shuddered and instinctively took two steps back.

Only after they clearly saw who was in front of them did the two men pat their chests with lingering fear and angrily ask, "Who are you? Who gave you permission to come in?"

"I saw no one at the front desk, so I asked the cleaning lady. She said there were people inside and told us to just come in," Yu Qing said casually.

"Don't you know how to knock before coming in? You were blowing a fan right at us without saying a word, it was really scary, you know?" Xiao Wang began to criticize and lecture.

"I saw you guys sweating, so I thought it was hot," Yu Qing explained helplessly.

“Even if we’re sweating, we have air conditioning, so you don’t need to lift a finger,” Xiao Wang said bluntly.

Xiao Liu whispered in Xiao Wang's ear, "It seems like we haven't turned on the air conditioning."

"Nonsense, don't I have any pride?" Xiao Wang rolled his eyes at him.

Yu Qing disapproved of their behavior and scoffed, but Lu Chi stepped forward and said, "Sorry, we'll be more careful next time."

Xiao Wang pulled out a tissue from the side, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, sat back down in his chair, glanced at the two of them, and said, "What brings you here?"

Lu Chi immediately realized what was happening and decisively took out a memory card from his pocket and placed it on the table in front of Xiao Wang: "My friend was killed a couple of days ago. We've found some clues that we hope will be helpful to you."

Xiao Wang glanced at the memory card on the table, then looked at the two men suspiciously: "Wang Jie is your friend?"

"Yes." Lu Chi nodded, unable to deny it.

"Handling cases is the police's job. Aren't you just messing around?" Xiao Wang said with dissatisfaction.

“We’re not messing around. Your police have made no progress, and I seriously doubt your ability to handle cases. Besides, providing clues to the police is something we concerned citizens should do,” Yu Qing said seriously and without room for argument.

"Hey, you're really talking without thinking. Investigating cases requires evidence. Do you think this is child's play? You can't just grab anyone off the street and call them a murderer, and then convict them as soon as you send them in?" Xiao Wang immediately became unhappy.

"So, have you found any evidence yet?" Yu Qing continued to ask.

"Of course we..." Xiao Wang choked on his words, then, as if deflated, said, "There is no evidence."

He then added, "But we already have a general direction, and I believe we'll catch the culprit soon, right, Xiao Liu?"

"Yes." Xiao Liu nodded solemnly.

"Oh? Is that so?" Yu Qing crossed his arms and leaned against the edge of the table, his tone casual, directly cutting to the chase: "Then tell me, where do you plan to start your investigation?"

“We were planning to start from a year ago…” Xiao Wang said, then suddenly realized something was wrong and immediately said, “Are you here to provide evidence or to inspect our work?”

"Of course I'm here to provide evidence, but as a family member of the victim, I have the right to know about the progress of the case," Yu Qing said slowly and deliberately.

"I think he's right," Xiao Liu whispered into Xiao Wang's ear.

"Nonsense, don't I have any pride?" Xiao Wang rolled his eyes at him. He knew the other man was right, but the key was that they had no clues and no progress.

Xiao Wang looked up, coughed awkwardly twice, picked up the memory card on the table, and cleverly changed the subject: "Tell me, where did you get this memory card from?"

"Found it at the crime scene!" Yu Qing said lazily.

"We've clearly retrieved all the surveillance footage from the crime scene. Did you find it from the sky?" Xiao Wang retorted excitedly.

“I really did find you from the sky.” Yu Qing looked at him without fear.

Just as Xiao Wang was about to get angry, Lu Chi stepped forward, bowed, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, we took this from the rooftop. We thought there might be clues inside."

"What kind of surveillance cameras could be on the rooftop..." Xiao Wang wanted to retort, but before he could finish speaking, Xiao Liu next to him suddenly realized something, and slapped his thigh in frustration.

He quickly leaned close to Xiao Wang's ear and whispered, "Yeah, the surveillance cameras on the rooftop can capture the express delivery station below. How come we didn't think of that?"

Xiao Wang said in a low voice, "It's normal that we can't think of it, but it's not normal that he can."

"That makes sense." Xiao Liu nodded in agreement.

Xiao Wang picked up the memory card, quickly inserted it into the computer, and began to view the surveillance footage.

As the image gradually became clearer, Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu leaned closer to the screen, watching intently.

When a black Mercedes appeared on screen, the two men immediately perked up. Xiao Wang pointed at the man in black on the screen and said gravely, "Is this the murderer?"

"The image is too blurry; we can't see anything at all," Xiao Liu said, frowning.

“There are two murderers,” Yu Qing said calmly.

"There's clearly only one, not two! I think you're just deliberately adding to our workload," Xiao Wang said angrily.

But at this moment, Xiao Liu suddenly interrupted, "Wait, there really are two."

Xiao Wang looked at Xiao Liu, somewhat bewildered: "How come I didn't see it?"

"Look, the murderer got out of the passenger seat, which proves there was another person in the driver's seat," Xiao Liu said calmly, pointing to the screen.

Xiao Wang was also stunned; there really were two people there.

Xiao Liu leaned close to Xiao Wang's ear and whispered, "Brother Wang, this kid was able to spot two murderers at a glance. His insight is on par with yours and mine. He might actually be quite skilled."

Xiao Wang said seriously, "No matter how skilled he is, he's just a concerned citizen. Don't forget that we are the regular army."

“That makes sense.” Xiao Liu raised his chin slightly, his lips curled up high, and his eyes showed a hint of confidence.

"It's a pity we can't see the license plate, otherwise the subsequent work would have been much easier," Xiao Wang sighed.

Yu Qing's lips twitched slightly as she slowly said, "Pay attention to the time the murderer left. You can check the surveillance footage from that time period at the next traffic light intersection, and you'll be able to see the car's license plate number."

"I think this method is feasible. Let's go and retrieve the surveillance footage right away. Maybe we can really find it." Xiao Liu's eyes lit up. The traffic light intersection uses electronic police cameras equipped with LED supplementary lights, which can capture very clear images even at night.

Before Xiao Liu could even feel happy, Yu Qing's words poured down like a bucket of water: "However, the murderer committed a premeditated crime. Judging from his intelligence in scouting the location beforehand, he definitely wouldn't use a real license plate number; the probability of him using a fake plate is ninety-nine percent."

"Even if there's only a one percent chance, we still have to investigate." Xiao Wang slammed his hand on the table, his eyes resolute.

Just as the group was talking...

A tall figure walked into the office.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Wang immediately broke into a happy smile and went out to greet them.

"Weiwei, what brings you here?"
