“No, this is not right,” Mei Shu said with a determined attitude. “The recording is enough to prove that Old Wang couldn’t withstand Wang Yue’s intimidation and promised to help her deal with my mother. She couldn’t have done nothing, especially since she happened to take a day off on the day my mother checked into the manor. The world can’t have such a coincidence; they must have planned it carefully!”

“But even though we say that, these are just our speculations, without direct evidence. After so many years, it’s difficult to make Old Wang and Wang Yue admit their guilt.”

Captain Wang spoke the truth.

If it were back then, there might still be many chances to find out the truth. But now, with the evidence gone, no one would bear legal responsibility for a murder case without concrete evidence.

Mei Shu knew this well.

After a long silence, she said, “How much of the manor’s surveillance footage from back then is still preserved?”

Captain Wang shook his head. “All that could be found is here. 1 also contacted the manor’s manager, and all records from that year have been destroyed. The surveillance has been upgraded, and no backups can be found.”

“I see.” Mei Shu stood up with a sense of loss. “I’ll think of other ways.”

“Wait!” Captain Wang was worried about her state and instinctively stopped her. “What’s your next step?”

“I want to see Wang Yue. Can I?” Mei Shu suddenly looked up at him.

Captain Wang shook his head. “Not yet. Her last case hasn’t completely ended, and at this stage, according to regulations, she is not allowed to meet with family members.”

Mei Shu, thinking of what she overheard last night, tightened her grip on her phone in her pocket. After a moment, she released the tension. “You don’t have to worry about me doing anything foolish. I won’t. You can rest assured about that.”

“How about I drive you back to school?” Captain Wang picked up the car keys on the table and headed outside.

Mei Shu politely stopped him. “No need. This place is not too far from my school. I’ll take a taxi myself. Riding in a police car to school is too conspicuous, and I don’t want to attract unnecessary attention.”

Captain Wang understood and smiled. “Alright, if you come up with any other ideas or find other clues, feel free to contact me. Here’s my phone number.”

“Okay, I’ll remember that.” Mei Shu saved his phone number and then left the police station.

Outside, on the street brightly lit by the sun, Mei Shu raised her hand to shield herself from the scorching sunlight. After hesitating for a while, she hailed a taxi and called her hacking master, F.

“No, it’s not possible.”

However, what she didn’t expect was that her master also gave the same answer over the phone.

Mei Shu sighed and said, “Master, I’m going to your place. Is it convenient?”

F was strangely silent for a moment on the other end of the line before finally agreeing, “Sure, come over. I’ve just invented a new system. It’s perfect for you to take a look.”

After making the appointment, Mei Shu changed the destination with the taxi driver. When the car stopped at the entrance of F’s secluded villa, she discovered that Lu Si was also here!

If she had known, she wouldn’t have come!

For some reason, since last night’s incident, Mei Shu suddenly didn’t want to see Lu Si.

But she couldn’t blame Lu Si. It was her own unwillingness to accompany him…

Lost in her thoughts, Mei Shu pushed open the door of the villa.

As usual, dozens of computers were operating simultaneously in the room, making the entire space exceptionally hot and stifling.

Lu Si lifted his head from one of the computers, casually turning on the air conditioner mounted on the wall. “You’re here at the right time.”

With a wave of his hand, he gestured for her to come over.

Mei Shu hesitated for a moment, placed her backpack on the sofa, and walked over reluctantly. “Where’s Master?” The source of this ᴄontent is novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt

Lu Si’s eyes remained focused on the computer screen. “Bathroom. Take a look at this.”

Unwillingly, Mei Shu crouched down to take a look. Suddenly, a string of code lit up on the screen, infiltrating the police’s dossier system.

Lu Si entered “Bai Ling” at the top and clicked on search.

“How did you know I was investigating this?” Mei Shu asked in surprise.

Lu Si grinned and teased, “I guessed that you wouldn’t find anything today at the police station and wondered why you didn’t come to me instead of calling F?”

Mei Shu was taken aback for a moment and then said, “I can find out by myself.”

Lu Si glanced at her playfully. “What are you stubbornly holding onto? Depending on others at the right time doesn’t mean you’re not independent. Just look at those men who buy houses with their parents’ money and claim to be independent. You’re too strict with yourself. Why don’t you take this shortcut I’m offering?”

Mei Shu gave him a strange look. “First, you have to prove that you really are a shortcut.”

Lu Si chuckled. “I can say this because i have confidence.”

He hacked into the police system to retrieve the forensic report on Bai Ling from that year..
