Its adorable yet responsible appearance eased Xia Zhining's tension a little, and she couldn't help but smile: "It's okay, being a little chubby is good, it'll keep you warm in winter and you won't be afraid of the cold."
The smile vanished quickly, and Xia Zhining's expression immediately returned to focus.
She then quickly said to the Zhoucheng police, "Please prepare the lightest miniature camera possible and find a way to get that little sparrow to wear it."
"This way we can see the real-time situation inside the house, and if there is any danger, we can immediately remind them to evacuate."
The officers sent to track down the garbage truck were extremely efficient and quickly sent back the news.
"Expert Xia, we've found it!" The officer's voice was tense with excitement over the communication channel. "The target vehicle did indeed enter and exit the villa area through the west gate around 4 a.m. today."
“We tracked its route and found that it made a brief stop to collect garbage in a parking lot near a commercial office building.”
"Here's the key point—the surveillance footage shows a person in a sanitation worker uniform struggling to drag a medium-sized, sealed cardboard box from the back of the garbage truck. It looked quite heavy."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Zhining received a high-definition surveillance screenshot from the Zhoucheng police on her phone.
Although the image is somewhat blurry, the outline of the dragged cardboard box and the back of the person carrying it, who is wrapped up tightly, can still be clearly discerned.
Xia Zhining held her phone screen a little further away, her sharp gaze quickly comparing the size and shape of the box in the screenshot with the overall scale of the potted plants on Mo Xiaohua's balcony in her memory.
After a moment, she spoke in a deep voice: "Judging from the proportions and the way it was carried, this box likely contains the plants that were replaced."
“The most critical issue now,” she said, quickening her pace, “is to immediately find out where this box was ultimately shipped to and whether it contains the crucial evidence we need.”
The person in charge on the other end of the phone sounded troubled: "We know this is crucial, but Expert Xia, if we have to mobilize a large number of police officers to conduct a thorough search of the area around the office building to find a box of flowers that may have been moved or abandoned..."
"Making too much noise is almost equivalent to telling the other party directly: We are investigating you. It will definitely alert them."
Yes, Mo Xiaohua's husband is so meticulous and vigilant. Once he senses any trouble, it's hard to predict what extreme measures he might take against Mo Xiaohua.
At present, the police's biggest advantage lies precisely in the fact that they have not yet been exposed and are still "in the dark".
Just then, a brilliant idea flashed into Xia Zhining's mind.
"I've got it!" she exclaimed urgently. "Immediately recruit squirrel volunteers from the surrounding area and ask them to help search for the flowers and plants that were taken away!"
"These little guys have a deep memory of the unique smell of the plants in Mo Xiaohua's house, and their sense of smell is far more sensitive than that of humans."
"Moreover, they move around in urban green belts and corners, hardly attracting any attention."
She quickly added, "I stay in touch with the squirrel brothers via remote communication and provide them with real-time guidance!"
There was only a brief silence on the other end of the line from the Zhoucheng police before a decisive response came through: "Understood! We'll arrange it right away!"
His voice was filled with approval and eagerness for this unconventional tactic.
Good heavens, having so many amazing teammates is so convenient!
No matter how big the problem is, it's not a problem!
Time ticked by in anxious anticipation.
Finally, the sparrow chick that had sneaked into the villa sent back live footage.
