The two men had no idea who the dark figure was that night. Chinatown was not a big place, and looking for a person without any specific features was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
When he was worried, he saw the dashcam in front of the truck. It was like he had grabbed a life-saving straw. He quickly turned on the micro display screen, adjusted the playback time to before the incident, and then started watching with his eyes wide open!
The dashcam wasn't a high-end product; it could only record images, not audio. To find any useful clues, the two men didn't dare fast-forward, instead adjusting the footage to the moment they entered the store and then watching it minute by minute, fearing they'd missed anything important.
The front of the car was heading towards the store. In the picture, we can clearly see them getting off the car and entering the supermarket. Then the car body shook slightly. It should be that several girls left the car one after another. Then two figures appeared again, standing at the door of the store, staring at the direction of the truck with raised eyebrows. After a pause, they rushed over quickly.
You Tianfu was standing at the rear of the carriage at the time. Seeing two strong men rushing up, he took out a knife and walked forward. He stopped at the side of the carriage and stabbed one of them. Then he passed the front of the carriage and walked quickly to the other side until he disappeared.
The entire process was not captured in the dashcam footage, except for the two seconds when You Tianfu was leaving. It was at this moment that he turned his head to look at the injured man who had fallen to the ground, and made sure that he had not caught up with him before leaving with peace of mind.
Just by turning around, two-thirds of his face was captured in the camera. Although the light was dim and the picture was blurry, the facial features and details could be vaguely seen.
The two men watched those two seconds over thirty times, freezing the moment You Tianfu turned around, staring at the half-exposed face with a frown on their faces. "What the hell can you make out of this? Just one nose and two eyes. There are people like this all over the city!"
The other man took a deep breath and said, "It's better to have clues than no clues. There's really no other way. Even if we have to find a scapegoat based on this situation, it's better than being sent to the park!"
That afternoon, the video footage was shown to Phyllis.
Phyllis looked at the majority of the face on the screen with sharp eyes. Nathan also touched his chin and said a few words in English, meaning that he had never seen this person before, but with these physical characteristics, it should not be difficult to find him.
Lei Haozi was standing on the other side. Although he had a puzzled expression on his face as well, he actually recognized the face as You Tianfu from Chengnan Building Materials Factory the first time he saw it!
But he did not say anything. Instead, he squinted his eyes and pretended to identify it, and finally shook his head slightly to indicate that he did not know it.
Ever since the Youtianfu brothers arrived in Chinatown, despite their numerous turmoil in various areas, they had never had any conflict with Chengbei. The only exception was their last encounter with Lei Haozi at the slaughterhouse. However, when they showed up, Lei Haozi had already been beaten unconscious by Zhurouxiong, and he hadn't seen what happened afterwards...
Strictly speaking, Lei Haozi had no favors or grudges against You Tianfu. The reason he didn't identify him on the spot was because he was also hesitant in his heart.
We are all Chinese, and Murong Jie helped him in the Foot Bath City. This love rat has always remembered it in his heart.
But he didn't know much about these little guys, and he was still brooding over the incident in the north of the city where Murong Jie caught him beating up Nathan. Especially when Murong Jie went back to confirm Nathan's identity, this action made it even harder for him to let down his guard.
So, upon seeing You Tianfu's face, countless thoughts flashed through his mind in just a few seconds. Should he reveal his identity directly? Or should he keep it a secret and tip off the others? Or should he just ignore it and let things take their course?
Seeing that he didn't recognize any of them, Phyllis glanced at Lei Haozi, then at Nathan, and ordered him expressionlessly to drag this man out of Chinatown!
Leaving Phyllis' office, Lei Haozi stood on the balcony of the building, smoking a cigarette and overlooking most of Chinatown from above. He was still thinking about what had just happened. After hesitating for a while, he seemed to have made a decision. He put out the cigarette with his bare hands and set off to the east city...
At the East City Building Materials Factory, Qin Yuhao's funeral had just ended, and everyone seemed to have returned to normal life, but the grief in their hearts was still hard to let go for a long time.
Aunt Hong was always busy looking for work to do, using her busyness to cover up her sadness. Qin Yuer had almost cried herself dry and was in a daze. She cried when she woke up and fell asleep when she was tired of crying. You Tianfu did nothing but stayed by her side, accompanying her silently.
The remaining brothers also gathered in the dormitory, their faces filled with sorrow, when Lao Li suddenly walked in, a look of nervousness on his face: "Lei Haozi from the north city is here, and he seems to be looking for Brother Tian..."
Hearing this, Murong Jie raised his head and said, "Sister Yu'er hasn't been feeling well these past two days, so let Brother Tian take care of her. Lei Haozi and I are good friends, so he probably heard that the Second Master passed away and came to pay his respects. I'll go."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out, but when he got outside he found that Lei Haozi had not entered the factory, but was sitting far away on the side of the road in front of the building materials factory, smoking cigarettes one by one.
After adjusting his mood, Murong Jie came over and forced a smile on his face, "Master Lei, I'm sorry for not welcoming you. Don't sit here. Come in quickly. I've already made tea!"
Lei Haozi didn't respond. He took a few deep puffs, finished the remaining half of his cigarette, and suddenly stood up. "I heard that one of your brothers passed away, so I came to see you. You guys are doing well, and the factory is getting bigger and bigger.
But when people are sad, it is easy to do wrong things, so I suggest that you stay at home and take it easy for a while.
Especially the talented player, he needs a rest even more."
Murong Jie was completely bewildered after hearing this. He didn't understand what this meant and wanted to exchange a few more pleasantries, but Lei Haozi had already turned around and left. As he walked away, he said, "Give your brothers a message for me. Accept my condolences and let things take their course..."
Back in the dormitory, Murong Jie repeated Lei Haozi's words. The other brothers looked at each other and frowned slightly, not understanding the meaning of those words...
Phyllis never gets involved in disputes within the city, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have her own information network within the city, so it's not difficult for her to find someone.
In just three days, Nathan had the results. A stack of information was neatly placed on his desk. It contained not only the general information about You Tianfu, but also all the ups and downs that had happened since he came to Chinatown, as well as the current construction of the entertainment city!
Phyllis read the information calmly, then her eyes turned cold. Nathan immediately understood and walked out of the office with a murderous look on his face.
Lei Haozi smiled apologetically, but then he turned around and sighed, with a wry smile on his face, and shook his head slightly...
