When Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi returned to the management office, Bai Xinyu and Mu Xiaoyi had already returned. Mu Xiaoyi was eating breakfast while typing away on the computer, and it was unclear what she was doing, but she seemed very busy.
Yue Jiuling walked to Xiaobaicai's side and said, "Caicai, if you're free today, you can go back and rest. We're going back soon too. We've finished our work these past two days, so we can take a day off today."
Little Cabbage nodded while biting the straw of her soy milk and said, "Okay, I understand. Actually, I'm not very tired. It's you guys who are working harder."
At this moment, Ye Dongfeng and Yinni also returned. Because they were from a relatively far place, they came back a little late. When Ya Zi saw them return, he pushed the still-warm breakfast over for them to eat: "Eat while it's hot. After you finish eating, we'll go back and rest together."
Ye Dongfeng yawned and said, "Well, how did things go last night? Let me tell you, we used those gold ingots to hire a bunch of ghost grandmas and grandpas to help persuade the ghosts. Surprisingly, it worked quite well! You can use that method next time!"
"Yes, a few hooligans and bullies appeared along the way, but Dongfeng dealt with them, which made things even better. Those ghost aunties and uncles are now working even harder for us, hahaha~"
Hidden, while drinking meat porridge, said...
Upon learning that they had used this method last night, Yue Jiuling and the others thought Ye Dongfeng and his team were quite clever, because this method could save a lot of time and would be much more effective.
Bai Xinyu said, "That's good, we've learned something. We can try this method in the future."
After she finished speaking, she turned to Little Cabbage and asked, "By the way, Little Cabbage, how are you doing now? Are you free to come with us to find that man in the yellow shirt tomorrow?"
The Ghost Festival has passed, but there are still no leads in the missing person case. So Bai Xinyu wants Xiao Baicai to continue helping her find the person suspected of being the murderer.
Little Cabbage nodded and said, "Sure!"
At this point, Mu Xiaoyi, who was standing nearby, also spoke up. She said, "When I came back just now, I contacted the local police station and asked them to help me retrieve some surveillance footage. They said they could, but it might take some time."
Hidden also said, "So, did you see someone wearing yellow clothes that day? Are there any other clues? Just one feature might not be enough to find someone."
"Yeah, well, never mind, you guys don't need to work today. Once you've rested, let's investigate this case together tomorrow."
Ye Dongfeng felt that Mu Xiaoyi and Bai Xinyu were quite unlucky. They were just going to work and do some fieldwork, but they ended up encountering other cases.
"That's right, everyone should go back and rest today. We'll go investigate together tomorrow. We've already grouped ourselves together, so there's no need to sort them. Let's not rush it."
Yue Jiuling also felt sorry for the two girls.
Ya Zi, who had already finished eating and was dozing off, overheard everyone's discussion and said, "Actually, I think this case is probably going to be really difficult to investigate. The murderer came prepared and also tried to avoid being tracked."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xinyu recalled that Mu Xiaoyi could only detect the vital signs of those who had been captured, but could not find out where they were hidden.
She said, "That's right. Xiaoyi couldn't find their location before, and now they've all lost all signs of life. Sigh..."
Although no one pressured them about this matter, and because no one reported it to the police and their superiors didn't take it very seriously, they still wanted to handle it well, after all, it involved human lives.
Ye Dongfeng thought about it for a moment and felt that this matter was too troublesome, so he stood up, threw the trash from his breakfast into the trash can, and said, "Forget it, let's discuss this tomorrow. Xiaoyi, if you receive the surveillance footage from the police tomorrow, call us together. I'm full, so I'll go back first."
Seeing that Ye Dongfeng was about to leave, Yinni also got up. They lived in the same dormitory and were used to going back together.
Little Cabbage wanted to follow too. He had just gotten up to put on his little hat when he saw Ya Zi lying next to him, almost asleep.
"Brother Long, Brother Long, it's time to go back to the dorm. Are you coming back or not? Don't sleep here!"
Little Cabbage reached out to push Ya Zi, trying to wake him up.
Actually, Ya Zi hadn't fallen asleep at all; he was just a little sleepy after eating. But when Xiao Baicai called him like that, he immediately looked up, squinted, yawned, and said, "Alright, let's go back too."
As he walked, he said to Yue Jiuling and the other female colleagues, "We'll head back now. Everyone's been working so hard, let's all go home and get some rest."
Yue Jiuling was looking at the computer screen next to Mu Xiaoyi when she turned around and glanced at Ya Zi and Xiao Baicai, saying, "Well, you two should go back and rest too, don't overwork yourselves."
Bai Xinyu also said, "You guys go back first, we've finished eating and we'll go back too."
Mu Xiaoyi didn't say anything; she just turned around and waved goodbye to Ya Zi and Xiao Baicai.
After Ya Zi and Xiao Bai Cai left, Yue Jiu Ling stretched and said, "Ah~ I'm so sleepy, aren't you guys sleepy?"
"How could that be? I'm sleepy too, okay?"
Mu Xiaoyi was still typing away on her computer. She sighed and said, "Sigh~ But no matter how tired I am, I have to make things clear to them first, otherwise we won't be able to get the surveillance footage from many places."
"So you're applying to them one by one now?"
