After hearing this, Ning Zhiheng realized why Chen Yanqing's expression had been so unpleasant earlier. The woman he admired was already taken, and by a mistress at that. One can only imagine how he felt!
However, Chen Yanqing will eventually get over this himself, and Ning Zhiheng has no interest in these romantic relationships!
The three criminals interrogated and killed two habitual thieves the night before last, which means they entered this detached mansion no later than the night before last.
If they sneaked in and took over the place, then Guo Ruxue would have been controlled or killed the day before yesterday!
But now that we've discovered Guo Ruxue was still alive yesterday, that doesn't make sense. Of course, there's another possibility: Guo Ruxue herself handed over this house to these three criminals to make it easier for them to do their thing!
Guo Ruxue is an accomplice of the murderer!
"Do you know this man's name?" Ning Zhiheng then asked.
“Miss Guo never mentions her man! You know, it’s not exactly something to be proud of for a girl to be someone’s mistress. I never ask about it. I’ve only ever heard Miss Guo call him Old Dai, but I don’t know which Dai he is,” the middle-aged woman said.
Ning Zhiheng nodded. He glanced at the streets, which were still under lockdown and many citizens had been trapped there for a long time. He then turned to Shi Hong and Liu Datong and said, "The culprit has been caught. Lift the lockdown and call it a day!"
Upon receiving Ning Zhiheng's order, the two immediately went to recall their respective subordinates. The police officers withdrew, and the action team members returned to Ning Zhiheng's side. After the blockade was lifted, the streets quickly returned to normal, bustling with people.
Ning Zhiheng immediately had someone bring over white paper and a pen. Based on the middle-aged woman's description, and after continuous drawing and revision, he finally completed the portrait of the man surnamed Dai!
Upon seeing the completed portrait, the middle-aged woman clicked her tongue in amazement: "Wow, young officer, your skill is incredible! It looks exactly like the real person!"
Ning Zhiheng glared at her, annoyed. "An officer is an officer, why call me 'little officer'? Fine, a good man doesn't argue with a woman!"
He then asked the middle-aged woman some more detailed questions, such as the location of the jewelry store where she met Guo Ruxue, before politely sending her away.
With the matter successfully concluded, Ning Zhiheng handed the portrait to Liu Datong and said, "The most urgent task is to find this person. I'm leaving this to you."
Now that we know the person's appearance, according to the woman's description, he is about 1.7 meters tall.
As for the given name? It's uncertain whether it's the "Dai" in "wearing a hat" or the "Dai" in "substitute," but in terms of surnames, it's more likely to be the "Dai" in "wearing a hat."
He must be very wealthy, otherwise he wouldn't have spent such a large sum of money to buy such a large mansion for his mistress. She also has bodyguards with her on a daily basis.
As for the search area, focus on the jewelry store on South Street where Guo Ruxue appeared, especially the store's employees and owner. These shrewd business people will pay special attention to these wealthy customers, and may even know them.
Bring plenty of men with you. If they are ungrateful and deliberately conceal the man's identity, arrest them immediately and interrogate them thoroughly.
Finding him would lead to Guo Ruxue, but Guo Ruxue is a lone woman with little interaction with the outside world, making it extremely unlikely that she would meet and be willing to help the perpetrator.
I'm now almost certain that this man surnamed Dai is the one connected to the three criminals. He might even be the one who sent the three criminals to find the family crest seal.
It's already 5 PM. You need to act quickly. Once you find the person, don't alert him. Report back to me immediately!
"I'm going to the detention center right now to interrogate those three criminals and get their confessions directly. We'll approach this from two angles, and we should be able to find the mastermind behind it all very quickly!"
Liu Datong took the portrait, nodded, and said, "Don't worry, Commander Ning. Now that we have so many clues, if I still can't find the person, I, Liu Datou, will have no face to follow you! I'll find the person for you within two hours at the latest!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded, gave him a few more instructions, and Liu Datong quickly left.
Ning Zhiheng led his team to the police station detention center without stopping. By then, Sun Jiacheng was already prepared to interrogate the Zuo siblings.
Entering the dimly lit interrogation room, and seeing the Zuo siblings tightly bound to thick wooden stakes, Ning Zhiheng went directly to Zuo Gang and asked calmly, "Name?"
Zuo Gang looked at Ning Zhiheng without saying a word. Ning Zhiheng didn't ask any more questions; he didn't have the patience to get entangled with these desperate criminals.
He waved to Old Liao, the head of the prison guards, and asked, "Bring out whatever you have here that you can use! Don't touch this woman. I know you have some underhanded methods against female prisoners here, but I don't like them! As for the other two, do whatever you want with them. In short, I want them to answer my questions honestly!"
Upon hearing this, the Zuo siblings, who were tied to the wooden post, immediately felt much more at ease.
Among the three siblings, Zuo Rou is clearly a major weakness. In this era, prisons and cells are among the darkest and most sinful places in society, especially for women.
Especially in terms of interrogation and torture, many female prisoners cannot endure this ordeal, suffer immense humiliation, and some even end their lives by suicide.
The three siblings depended on each other for survival in this chaotic world. Zuo Gang and Zuo Qiang could disregard their own safety, but they were worried about Zuo Rou. Otherwise, they would not have surrendered when Zuo Rou's life was threatened.
When they were locked in this interrogation room, they were afraid that the interrogators would subject Zuo Rou to unbearable torture. While they were feeling uneasy, Ning Zhiheng unexpectedly excluded Zuo Rou from the beginning. This made them feel a little bit of goodwill towards this young man who exuded a sinister aura.
