Du Yan scratched his head, seemingly confused, "Then why did they just happen to harm my sister-in-law?"
He Jian stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, then looked down again and carefully examined the area around that small section of wooden pillar.
He then gave a serious analysis and answer.
"The wooden boards they glued on should be relatively hard, so they won't easily fall off even if someone steps on them."
The final performer who went on stage before Miss Ming was probably the one who removed that small piece of wood and caused Miss Ming to fall into the trap.
The small piece of wood he added later must have been quite fragile; if Miss Ming stepped on it, it would crack within seconds and begin to sink.
They must have measured Miss Ming's height carefully and devised a foolproof plan before coming up with this idea.
But they may have forgotten to consider the thickness of Miss Ming's shoes, and the sharp spikes were scraped off piece by piece as Miss Ming fell down, so the remaining ones weren't too sharp.
Therefore, the sharp splinters did not pierce Miss Ming's neck, but they did cause significant cuts to both of her hands.
The other four people couldn't help but applaud.
Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense...
Du Yan patted He Jian's shoulder gently and said with some satisfaction, "That's great. Which department are you in? You can work for me from now on."
"Thank you, Deputy Boss Du!" He Jian said happily to Du Yan with his hands clasped. "Deputy Boss Du, if the surveillance footage confirms this, we can arrest that artist from Baiyun Tiandi first."
Du Yan nodded and directed the other three, "No need to wait for the surveillance footage to confirm. I trust you. The three of you, go and bring that celebrity here to me now."
He Jian smiled subtly, and after a long while, he raised his head to look at Du Yan.
Once the five bodyguards in the monitoring room had a direction, they began to keep a close eye on the surveillance camera at the stage location.
Today is the start time of the event, and there are too many people on site, so people who want to participate usually don't choose today.
This is a relatively large venue, and events have been held here for the past few days.
Based on the above two points, the person who disrupted the stage must have arrived at the venue between yesterday afternoon and this morning.
Then they only need to watch the surveillance footage for that specific time period.
Du Yan has already obtained the results, so he is currently standing in the monitoring room with his monitoring team reviewing the surveillance footage.
The seven of them divided the video into seven segments, with each person watching approximately two hours of footage.
He Jian casually opened the surveillance footage from 5 to 7 a.m. on the computer, and then said to Du Yan and the others,
"Deputy Boss, I'm looking at this time period."
Du Yan nodded in agreement, then sat down and casually stared at the computer screen for a few moments. Soon, his head felt so heavy that he almost fell asleep.
"Deputy Boss Du! We found it!" He Jian quickly clicked the mouse twice and shouted loudly to the drowsy Du Yan.
Du Yan was startled awake. He shuddered, straightened up abruptly, and spun around in a daze before asking in a hoarse voice,
"Who, who, what did they find out?"
He Jian reached out to stop Du Yan, but Du Yan quickly came to her senses. He Jian then politely cupped his hands and said...
"Deputy Chief, the surveillance footage has captured the people who vandalized the stage. Please take a look."
Du Yan walked toward He Jian's computer, with the remaining five bodyguards following behind him.
He Jian pulled the progress bar back a bit, and everyone saw a person dressed in all black with their face completely covered up on the screen.
The man, carrying a large iron sledgehammer, crept furtively to the center of the stage. Almost without thinking, he swung the sledgehammer with all his might and smashed down that small area.
Then he carefully crawled down into the hole, and then disappeared from the scene.
He Jian pressed the forward key on the keyboard a few times, and the screen on the computer jumped quickly. Then he saw the tightly wrapped person carefully crawling out of the hole, and he saw that he had a thick wooden stick in his hand.
Du Yan's brows furrowed deeper and deeper. He lightly tapped the table with his palm and asked, sounding particularly angry,
"Kid, do you think the person who caused this damage is the same person as the headliner at Baiyun Tiandi?"
He Jian nodded thoughtfully, "Deputy Boss Hui Du, I think their builds are somewhat similar, so if nothing unexpected happens, they should be the same person."
"Fine! Tell those three brothers to take him to the basement of the GF building." Do Yeon said angrily as she turned and walked towards the door.
He Jian glanced back at the computer screen, a sly glint in his eyes, before he followed closely behind Du Yan.
...
In a room in the basement of the GF building
Feng Yunyun's mournful cries echoed throughout the room. Bai Li, who was tied to a chair not far from her, was reluctant to look up.
Feng Yunyun glared angrily at the fat, burly men in front of her. She looked helpless as she was barely clothed.
Several bodyguards grabbed the headliner from Baiyun Tiandi, pushed open the door, and threw him inside.
When Feng Yunyun saw that several more men had suddenly appeared outside the door, she immediately lowered her head in fear, though it was to no avail.
"Who are these people? We're dealing with these two right now. It's not good for you to suddenly barge in," said the bodyguard who was already in the room.
"It was Deputy Chief Du who told us to bring the person here; he'll be here soon."
"Who is this person? Is he an accomplice of this young master Bai?"
"Our initial guess is that he was the one who damaged the stage, causing Ms. Ming to fall, but this has not yet been confirmed."
"Oh. You guys put a blanket over that woman, so the deputy boss doesn't see her."
...
Du Yan glanced out the car window to make sure no one was around before carefully dialing the number.
"Boss Gu, he has already explained the whole story. What do you think we should do with them now?"
All that could be heard was Gu Shaojin speaking in his deep, magnetic voice.
"Release Bai Li and that guy surnamed Feng. Keep that spy with you for now. As for the one who disrupted the stage, submit the evidence and take him to Officer Chen."
Du Yan was somewhat puzzled. "Huh? Boss Gu, it's obvious that Bai Li and Feng Yunyun are the masterminds behind this plot to harm my sister-in-law. Why did you release them?"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a chillingly cold voice...
"Since he is the mastermind, how can we let him go so easily?"
