Although he was called Qin Sheng's fifth grandfather, Wu Feng was actually the oldest of Qin Sheng's five grandfathers.
She's seventy-six this year, two years older than Fu Zhuoyuan.
In addition, he worked in criminal investigation when he was young, often working overtime and staying up late, and did not pay attention to his diet and daily life, which led to many hidden health problems.
Judging by appearance alone, one would assume he is over eighty years old.
Although he's getting old and his body can't keep up, the old man's enthusiasm for his work remains as strong as ever.
In recent years, due to his leg problems, he has tried to stay home as much as possible, but even so, he still goes to the police station at least four or five times a month.
Even if we can't go on missions and conduct tests like we did when we were younger, it's still good to look at surveillance videos and find clues like we did today.
He gets as excited as a child once he makes a small discovery.
Right now, she's pulling Qin Zheng and Qin Sheng along, one on each side, to show them off.
"Look, this video looks very smooth and seems to have no problems, but here, this shadow is wrong, there's a delay of about half a second."
Although it had been processed using special techniques and was handled very carefully, Qin Sheng noticed it after only one glance and nodded: "It's not right."
The old man became even more excited, almost jumping for joy: "So they went in the wrong direction from the very beginning!"
Switching the video to a hospital map, pointing to a location on it, he said, "Actually, the little girl left the hospital through this door, not here."
Qin Sheng nodded again: "Yes."
Recalling the little girl's expression in the surveillance footage she had just seen, she glanced at Xia Ziru behind her and said, "There's another point: leaving the hospital was her own decision."
Xia Ziru instinctively denied it: "Impossible!"
Realizing he had overreacted, he quickly explained, "I told Xiaotong that no matter what the reason, she shouldn't leave the hospital alone. She's very sensible; she always keeps her promises to me."
This conclusion was drawn by Xia Ziru based on her understanding of Xia Zitong, but...
"At this time," Qin Sheng pointed to the time in the upper left corner of the video that had restarted playing, and asked Xia Ziru, "what are you doing?"
It happened around 5 p.m. yesterday, just in time for dinner.
"I was at the company, just about to go to lunch. At this time, I should have just left the training room, and then..." Xia Ziru answered while recalling, but halfway through her sentence, she suddenly thought of something, and her expression changed abruptly.
Qin Sheng's gaze fell on the girl's right ankle, and he vaguely realized: "You fell?"
Xia Ziru nodded with a very unpleasant expression: "Yes."
And it wasn't a normal wrestling match.
Xia Ziru had just finished get off work and hailed a taxi on her phone, intending to go to the hospital to see Xia Zitong and have dinner with her. As she left the company, the driver had just arrived nearby and was calling her to ask for her exact location, so she walked out while still on the phone.
But just as they reached the door, a car crashed into them head-on.
Fortunately, she noticed it early. As soon as she heard the sound and noticed the commotion, she rushed forward a few steps. The car veered to the other side, and she barely managed to avoid it.
But because she rushed in too fast and was wearing high heels, she accidentally twisted her ankle. Before she could get treatment, she received a call from the hospital and learned that Xia Zitong had gone missing.
Xia Ziru didn't need Qin Sheng to remind her anymore; she had already guessed the cause and effect of the matter.
That out-of-control car was not an accident.
It was deliberately arranged by someone to film her "incident" and then find a way to let Xia Zitong see the video.
Xia Zitong was worried that something had happened to her, and since she had most likely recognized her location, she found her herself.
As for what happens after you get out...
Xia Ziru clenched her fists, her dark eyes flashing with a fierce light: "A twelve or thirteen-year-old girl went out alone and disappeared unexpectedly. Who knows if she was abducted by human traffickers, got lost, or had an accident while playing? But no matter what, it has nothing to do with them."
What a brilliant Jiabo!
This move not only gave them leverage over her but also cleaned their own name. Even if someone with a strong temper and who wasn't easily threatened reported them, they wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
Xia Ziru took a deep breath and suddenly looked up at Qin Sheng: "Miss Qin, please help me."
Qin Sheng's eyebrows twitched slightly at the word "beg".
Although they hadn't met many times, Qin Sheng could tell that Xia Ziru was a very independent and self-reliant girl. When she encountered trouble, she would usually try to solve it herself, and if she couldn't solve it, she would just silently endure it.
It's quite rare to see someone asking for help like this.
She raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you want to do?"
A ruthless glint flashed in Xia Ziru's eyes as she said, "I want to save my sister, and then... to seek justice for her, for myself, and for the countless artists who have been schemed against by Jia Bo!"
The girl's eyes revealed a maturity and ruthlessness beyond her years, which even Qin Zheng and Wu Feng couldn't help but glance at her again.
While surprised, I also felt a slight sense of admiration.
However, while he appreciated the gesture, he was still very unhappy about the other party's attempt to involve his daughter (granddaughter) in these matters.
Wu Feng's expression darkened slightly. He said, "Your matter, your sister's matter, you can submit any clues or evidence you have to the police. The police will investigate the truth and seek justice for you. Sheng Sheng is just a college student; she can't help you."
Qin Zheng nodded, then turned to Qin Sheng and said, "Director Xing and your fifth grandfather are handling things here. It's getting late, you should go home first."
He glanced at Fu Jingheng, who was walking towards him from a distance, and his expression softened for once. He gestured with his chin towards Qin Sheng and said, "Little Fu is here to pick you up."
Qin Sheng pursed his thin lips slightly.
He glanced at Xia Ziru, thought for a moment, lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, and finally casually picked up the pen and notebook that Wu Feng had placed on the table to record clues, wrote down two addresses and handed them to Qin Zheng.
He said in a clear voice, "Find someone first."
A look of surprise flashed across Qin Zheng's eyes, but without much hesitation, he took the notebook, greeted Wu Feng, and then summoned a police officer.
They immediately got busy here.
Qin Sheng then stepped aside and, taking advantage of the moment when her father and fifth grandfather were not paying attention, nodded to Xia Ziru.
Xia Ziru was stunned for a moment, then stepped aside and followed Qin Sheng's footsteps.
It was late, and most shops had already closed, or there were only bustling late-night snack stalls left. Qin Sheng glanced around but wasn't interested, so she simply turned into a nearby alley.
After Xia Ziru came in, he raised his eyebrows and looked at her, asking, "Do you know what kind of power is behind Jiabo?"
