Stealing Your Heart

This current interrogation with Wang was not the first one.

Chief Wu looked over to Jiang Mohan and concluded, “It seems like he really doesn’t have a clue.”

After all, Wang was a timid guy. If he did do anything, he would have confessed a long time ago after so much intimidation.

Nevertheless, the man assured Jiang Mohan, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she does not get out of B City.” In the city, everyone’s real name would be recorded so long as one purchased any public transport ticket. This system worked in Chief Wu’s favor- he was already keeping track of all the relevant records to figure out Ling Wei’s whereabouts.

He even deployed people to go undercover at bus stations and train platforms.

Meanwhile, Jiang Mohan carried out his own deductions. Knowing that Ling Wei was \not originally from here had no relatives or friends here besides Nan Cheng, he speculated that there was no way she could leave the city. Instead, she was likely hiding in a corner somewhere.

He wanted to conduct his own search operations, but there was a problem- he had insufficient manpower. There was only Chief Wu he could try his luck with. He began slowly, “Well, Chief Wu, your subordinate lost the suspect. That means you take partial responsibility too.”

Chief Wu did not deny his charge. “Of course, I’ll see to his punishment and hold myself accountable for this mishap.”

“Actually, I’m not exactly blaming you. It’s just… I would like you to borrow me some manpower.”

“Oh? You have a clue as to where she is?”

Jiang Mohan replied, “They are merely speculations, though I would want to have them checked. Unfortunately, I don’t have many available men with me.”
