Chapter 175 Give You Self-Defense
The metal folding knife still retained the warmth of its touch, as well as the faint scent of jasmine from the man.
She held it in her hand and looked at Si Chen hesitantly.
Si Chen glanced down at the knife in Lin Tingxu's hand and explained, "You can use it for self-defense. Also, the red button on the handle has an alarm function. Once you press it, not only will the alarm sound, but it will also send your location in real time."
"I can't take such an important thing. I have a cobra with me, and it can protect my safety." Lin Ting tried to stuff the dagger into Si Chen.
'That's right.'
The cobra joined in the fun by sticking its head out of the messenger bag.
Si Chen didn't take it. "Take it. I don't need it right now. Just return it to me after this case is over."
After Si Chen finished speaking, he turned and walked into the crowd. Less than half a minute later, Lin Ting received the photo sent by Wu Dachuan. She stared at the photo for a few seconds, brought Cobra to the door of the herbal tea shop, and did not forget to buy a package of sago from the boss.
She sat on the doorstep and waved to the sparrow perched on the telephone pole.
Before the sparrow flew over, Lin Ting patted the eye snake in his messenger bag and said, "Don't sneak out and scare away those two little birds. If you dare to sneak out, I won't buy you any delicious food."
Woo
'Snakes are that kind of snakes.'
"Snakes are too lazy to come out. They need to sleep."
There was enough space in the messenger bag, and the cobra moved twice inside and immediately became quiet.
Two little sparrows landed accurately on Lin Ting's hands. The little sparrows sniffed the sweet scent on Lin Ting's body and couldn't help but look at her curiously.
"Have you two always lived nearby?" Lin Ting handed the sago to the little sparrow.
The little sparrow jumped out from Lin Ting's palm, stood on the edge of the disposable bowl, and ate the sago that was cooked until transparent and added with coconut milk.
Woo
"It's delicious."
"That's right, my great-grandmother has lived here. I'm very familiar with this area. If anyone needs anything, I can ask for my help."
Lin Ting turned on her phone, clicked on the photo Wu Dachuan sent her, and handed it to Little Sparrow, "Have you seen this person?"
Two little sparrows ate while hopping to the phone, as if they were going to jump into the phone.
What Wu Dachuan sent her was a frontal photo of the suspect.
"Yes, isn't the two-legged beast dead?"
"Are you looking for this dead man? He's in the room upstairs. Que could have taken you up there, but unfortunately, a lot of bipeds have come and cordoned off that area. It's probably dangerous for anyone to go there now."
Hearing this, Lin Ting's alarm bells immediately rang as he looked at the two little guys. "I'm not going to look for this person. I just want to know how he died. Did you see who killed him?"
One of the little sparrows leaped and jumped into Lin Ting's hand.
'The bird saw it.'
"The person who killed the Twolegs followed the Twolegs into the room. After the Twolegs entered the room, the bad guy followed them in. He took a knife in his hand and stabbed the Twolegs several times from behind while they were still not reacting. Que was standing by the window and saw it all clearly."
"The blood splattered on the window and almost splashed all over the bird."
"Did the bad guys stay after killing people?" Lin Ting relayed everything he learned to Si Chen.
'No. '
"After the bad guy stabbed the two-legged beast to death, he immediately left quietly. Before leaving, he wiped the two-legged beast's body and took away something like a wallet."
"The bad guy who killed the two-legged beast was wearing a pitch-black suit and a hat that covered half of his face. When he stood up, he was half the height of the window. The bird even saw a golden ring on his hand."
"Did the bad guy with the hat leave this area immediately?" Lin Ting deliberately lowered his voice.
The crowd's attention was all on the person who was caught, and no one noticed Lin Ting who was mumbling to the little sparrow.
'Gone, left in a car.'
"Thank you." Lin Ting went to the next store and bought some millet porridge, poured it on a disposable plate, and fed it to the little sparrows.
She looked around but couldn't find any place selling millet and grains nearby, so she could only buy some ready-made millet porridge to give to these little guys as a thank you gift.
There was nothing for her to do here. After learning about these things, Lin Ting took a taxi directly back to the police station.
Si Chen and Lin Ting returned to the police station almost at the same time.
After seeing Si Chen, Lin Ting immediately stepped forward, took out the folding knife from his pocket, and handed it to Si Chen, "Senior, this is back to you."
Si Chen glanced down at what Lin Ting had exchanged for. His fingers dangling at his sides slowly clenched, as if something was stuck in his throat. After a moment, he said, "Keep it for now. Return it to me after this case is over."
Before Lin Ting could say anything, Si Chen had already strode towards the office.
After Si Chen came back, he called everyone to a meeting. Lin Ting, a non-staff member involved in this case, was also there. In addition, Director Song also came.
Director Song's expression was grim as he said, "The provincial government is aware of this case. It's not only far-reaching, but also involves overseas human trafficking. The provincial government is taking it very seriously and has asked us to solve it as quickly as possible and not cause panic among the public."
"Si Chen, what's going on over there?"
As Director Song finished speaking, Si Chen stood up and walked over to the slides. "The deceased, Zhang Qian, was suspected of numerous crimes. According to the clues we have, he not only killed his partner and the rapist, but he's also been implicated in multiple robberies and abducted girls from hair salons to sell to overseas human trafficking organizations."
"Zhang Qian died today in a hair salon. According to Tingting's information, the killer was a 1.8-meter-tall man wearing black and a baseball cap. Based on this description, Dachuan has already led his team to check the surveillance footage along the way, hoping to find the suspect's face and apprehend him immediately."
"In addition, the criminal suspect Zhang Qian's phone has been given to Tian Tian, who will retrieve the contents and locate the overseas human trafficking organization Zhang Qian was in contact with."
Tian Tian was in a meeting while still trying to find Zhang Qian's phone. As soon as Si Chen finished speaking, Tian Tian's excited voice rang out, "I found it."
Everyone looked towards Tian Tian.
Tian Tian connected the computer to the big screen, and everyone sitting around the long table turned their eyes to the big screen behind them.
"Based on the contact information on Zhang Qian's phone, I found this internet celebrity company called Yizhiyang. This internet celebrity company was established last year and has only recruited female internet celebrities since its establishment. However, I checked their operating income and found that they only bring in a few hundred thousand yuan each year. Logically speaking, a long-term internet celebrity company can't have only this much income. So I continued to dig deeper and found that after recruiting female internet celebrities, they would take them abroad under the pretext of going abroad for live broadcasts. Not long after, these so-called female internet celebrities disappeared."
