Only Shen Heng and Bai Jiaojiao remained in the cafeteria. Shen Heng said, "It seems that their family is not quite normal. Otherwise, I'll find that Wu She, take a knife, and stab them all. Just looking at them makes me angry."
Bai Jiaojiao laughed in exasperation after hearing this: "Fine, you'd better tell Wu She to practice his skills. He's just a bit tall, it's hard to say whether he can take on three people at once."
Shen Heng was relieved to hear that Bai Jiaojiao was still in the mood to joke with him, knowing that Ding's mother had not caused Bai Jiaojiao any psychological trauma.
"Don't be angry, they won't be able to keep up their smugness for long."
Shen Heng originally just wanted Ding Shifang to go wherever she wanted, but now he had to find a way to make the whole Ding family quiet down.
Wu She was bailed out by Shen Heng, and he never expected that Shen Heng would keep his word.
"I've kept my word; now it's time to see your sincerity."
The two sat on a bench by the roadside, with Shen Heng's arms crossed, and he didn't look at Wu She while speaking.
Wu She had a sudden thought. He had the sharpest eyes and could tell at a glance that Shen Heng was no pushover. Since he had such an opportunity, he certainly didn't want to let it slip by.
"Brother, don't worry, leave Ding Shifang to me."
Wu She intended to use this incident to demonstrate his loyalty, so that if he could follow Shen Heng in the future, wouldn't he have someone to look after him?
Shen Heng glanced at him: "Tell me what you're going to do first."
"That woman made me do a lot of things for her, and although I didn't keep any evidence, I know all her wicked schemes. This time it's about Bai Jiaojiao, and last time it was about another woman named Chengcheng, I think she stole her spot in the choir, and before that, there was another one..."
"Stop talking nonsense and say something useful," Shen Heng interrupted him.
Wu She originally wanted to tell everyone he knew to show that he was a useful person, but he noticed Shen Heng's impatience and coughed awkwardly: "Well, there is something I think I can help with."
"explain."
"However, I don't know much about this matter either. She asked me to contact someone before, and that person didn't look like an ordinary citizen. Moreover, Ding Shifang also instructed that no one should tell anyone about this."
"What did she ask you to do?"
"He asked me to hand over an envelope. The address he gave me was a guesthouse. The guesthouse was in very poor condition and quite far from here, but the clothes he was wearing made him look like someone of status." Wu She also found this strange and took note. "Brother, you know that people like me rely on their wits to make a living. Judging from Ding Shifang's expression and the man who accepted the envelope, there's definitely something fishy going on here!"
"How long ago was that?"
"last year."
"Last year? That man's long gone, where the hell are you going to find him!"
Shen Heng kicked Wu She, who fell off the chair: "No, brother, let me continue."
Wu She got up, but instead of sitting, he bowed his head and hunched over, as if reporting: "I've done this more than once. What I mean is, let's go look for him. Maybe we can still find him."
Wu She had been adept at reading people since childhood. When Ding Shifang gave him the envelope, although she ordered him to keep it a secret, Wu She could still see Ding Shifang's excitement in it. Fearing that his words would have no real effect, he added his own speculation: "I think Ding Shifang is quite interested in this. It's obviously a good thing for her. Do you think she might be speculating? That envelope, could it be a bag of money?"
Hearing him say that, Shen Heng finally showed a thoughtful expression.
Seeing this, Wu She immediately pressed on: "These two are clearly in the business of long-term dealings. I reckon she didn't contact me this year because she was preparing for the worst. This is definitely illicit, and if we expose her, she's finished!"
Shen Heng thought about it and realized that there was potential in this matter, so it wouldn't hurt to go and take a look.
"Go check first. If the person is still there, don't alert them. Come back and tell me what to do."
"Understood, brother. Don't worry, I'm the most reliable person in this area." Wu Shili immediately expressed his determination.
"Alright, I'll come to your house every other day. You can report to me if anything comes up."
Shen Heng wouldn't let Wu She know his information, but Wu She didn't find it strange.
"Then I'll go that way after dinner tonight and squat there for a bit!"
After returning home, Shen Heng reported his progress for the day to Bai Jiaojiao.
"Staying at a guesthouse?" Bai Jiaojiao frowned, deep in thought.
"Yes, but it doesn't necessarily have to be someone from out of town. After all, some things can't be done in the open, so they just find a random meeting place."
Bai Jiaojiao said, "But if it's always in the guesthouse, then it's worth thinking about. Heng-ge, if you were doing this kind of business, would you choose a guesthouse as your meeting place? If it were me, I would rather find a quiet alley with few people, and it would be best to change locations every time."
“What you said makes sense. Let Wu She go and find out more. According to your analysis, this matter can only be big, not small.”
Wu She said that the man was dressed well, so he must be a wealthy person, but he chose a guesthouse that did not match his status. Bai Jiaojiao boldly guessed: "He probably didn't have proper identification and used connections at the guesthouse to get in."
This is the only reasonable explanation.
What does Ding Shifang want with an unregistered person?
Shen Heng said, "No matter what it is, as long as Wu She has found out, we should call the police to block the door and investigate."
Bai Jiaojiao had a bad feeling, but it was only on Ding Shifang's behalf.
After all, she knew that Ding Shifang was not as timid as she appeared in front of outsiders. She was very decisive, and even had the courage to do unconventional things that most people wouldn't dare to do.
She thought about it carefully; Shen Heng had asked her about the car accident before.
Although the economy developed rapidly in the following years and Yancheng became an economic center, it was still quite a feat for Ding Shifang to bribe someone to run someone over with a car.
“What could be put in an envelope and given to someone? It can’t be Ding Shifang taking money out of his pocket.”
"The contents of the envelope are definitely paper."
"Cultural relics?" Bai Jiaojiao shook her head after saying that. "If someone is interested in this, they might as well go to a scrap yard to look for them. It's easier and cheaper."
They couldn't figure it out at home, so Shen Heng went to Wu She's house the next day.
Wu She was sitting in front of their house enjoying the breeze when he saw Shen Heng and quickly went inside: "Brother, I was absolutely right, that person is still in the guesthouse. I think he's not just meeting people there, he probably lives there all year round. Can a good person not even have a home?"
"Go and wait here. I'll call the police tomorrow. Don't let that person get away. If you catch him, you'll have done a great job, and the police at the local station will thank you."
