A commotion arose among the surrounding crowd. Along with Su Mei, the nameless remains were also taken away. Some were terrified, some choked with sobs, and most were discussing the matter animatedly.

It's like Koh Samui's spine is about to be broken.

She looked at Ruan Jianhua, who was holding Ruan Xiaochun in the crowd, and suddenly felt extremely panicked. Her legs gave way and she fainted.

"Send them to the hospital first, the others can continue."

No one dared to relax for a moment. There was still a living child missing, and the child's remains weighed heavily on every police officer at the scene like a huge mountain.

The Jiang couple stared blankly at the busy police officers in the small courtyard.

Xing Yong sighed and walked over. "Commander Jiang, you should take your wife back to rest first. We'll send you any news as soon as we have it."

The man nodded and finally helped the woman, who had collapsed into a puddle of mud, away from there.

The police searched every house in several alleys, but Aunt Mei seemed to have disappeared. They couldn't find any clues, and the case reached a stalemate.

Su Mei, the only one who knew a clue, is still lying in the hospital.

Tanshui City Public Security Bureau.

Wang Gaofeng was so engrossed in listening to Xing Yong's initial report that he nearly cracked the teacup in his hand.

"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! He fainted, he's not dead. Take him to the hospital and interrogate him directly in the interrogation room."

Wang Gaofeng felt utterly humiliated that such a serious case had occurred in his jurisdiction.

"You can call upon any colleagues from other groups; everyone will be determined to solve this case for me."

The phone rang immediately after he finished speaking.

"Minister Sui, please speak."

"Yes, yes, we will definitely do our best to solve the case. Don't worry, we have already mobilized manpower to conduct a full investigation."

"Three days, okay."

Wang Gaofeng hung up the phone, pinched the bridge of his nose, and paced back and forth anxiously.

"Three days. We've been given a strict order from above, only three days. You'd better dig three feet into the ground and find this criminal gang. Otherwise, we're both fired and going home to dig sweet potatoes."

"Here's what you'll do. You can choose the personnel yourself. The 6.19 joint task force in the city will be there immediately. Use whatever you need. I'll provide the paperwork and paperwork later."

"I don't care what methods you use, pry open Su Mei's mouth. I want to see the complete case report on my desk three days from now."

Xing Yong watched as Wang Gaofeng angrily slammed his hand on the table. Three days—this was practically an extreme challenge.

But what does losing a job matter compared to the lives of children?

"Director Wang, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished."

Wang Gaofeng waved for him to leave, then irritably flipped through the documents on the table. Skeletons, so many skeletons, and they were all children. How dare those people?

After leaving the director's office, Xing Yong pulled out a chair. "Xiao Zhang, keep an eye on Zhang the forensic doctor's situation. Notify me immediately if there's any news. Xiao Chen, go to the technical team and see if there are any clues in the things they brought back. Niu Qiaobao and Qin Yuezheng, you two come with me to the hospital to interrogate Su Mei directly. Everyone else, go out and look for clues."

Everyone immediately sprang into action.

Xing Yong took Niu Qiaobao and Qin Yuezheng by bicycle to the First Hospital of Tanshui City.

There was a policeman watching outside the ward. Xiaochun and Ruan Jianhua were sitting at the door, and the little guy was muttering to himself.

Xing Yong nodded and led his men inside, while Su Mei stood there, clutching her stomach in a daze.

She woke up as soon as she was put into the car, but she could only escape for a while, not forever. She kept thinking about what to say.

"Su Mei, we have ample evidence that you were in that courtyard. We only need to test the discarded underwear to confirm it's yours. Furthermore, we already have someone to prove you're pregnant. I think the doctor has already examined you, right?"

Su Mei's heart pounded wildly, her tongue pressed tightly against her teeth, and she was panicking terribly.

She subconsciously looked at the figure that vaguely appeared by the door, as if a needle had pierced her heart.

Looking into Xing Yong's sharp eyes, Su Mei's shoulders finally slumped.

"Captain Xing, what do you want to ask?"

Niu Qiaobao and Qin Yuezheng stood to one side with their notebooks in hand. "What are you going to the small courtyard for?"

Su Mei kept her head down and did not answer.

The police officer continued with the next question, "Did you see the person inside?"

Su Mei nodded gently.

Do you know what it looks like?

Su Mei bit her lower lip, still feeling uneasy, after all, it was a human life at stake.

"There were two women. One was in her forties, wearing a blue shirt and black pants, with a square face. I couldn't see the other one clearly; she was wearing a mask, was about 160 cm tall, slightly overweight, and had a black mole on the right side of her right eyebrow."

"Anything else?"

Su Mei's facial muscles twitched slightly. "I... I heard a child's voice coming from the next room, but I didn't see anything, and I don't know what happened after that."

Xing Yong stood to the side, watching Su Mei's expression. Su Mei was lying; she had seen and recognized her.

But he doesn't have time to expose Su Mei's lie right now.

"Niu Qiaobao spread the word and went to find those two women."

At this moment, Ruan Xiaochun, who had been sitting outside the ward, was filled with shock and contemplation.

A notification appeared in my mind: [Ding~ Reputation points exceeded 100, skill exchange function activated. Current reputation points: 107.]

Ruan Xiaochun then saw a series of messages appear on the screen.

[Name: Ruan Xiaochun]

【当前技能:初级开锁术(熟练度50);初级扒术(熟练度67);初级逻辑推理(熟练度30);初级伪造现场(熟练度20);中级伪造文书(熟练度50);中级伪装大师(熟练度60)】

[Current Reputation Value: 107, Skill Exchange Function Now Enabled]

[Skills to be unlocked: Painting (100 reputation points), Poison making (1000 reputation points), Counterfeiting (500 reputation points), Dismemberment (1000 reputation points)...]

Currently, her reputation points can only be exchanged for painting, but if she can paint, does that mean she can draw the faces of bad guys?

Xiaochun swallowed hard. Never mind, let's redeem it first!

[Ding~ Painting skill has been redeemed, deducting 100 reputation points]

A surge of knowledge, like a warm current, entered Xiaochun's mind.

Unlike her previous intermediate-level forgery skills, which were imitations, this time she possesses genuine drawing ability; it seems she can immediately draw anything she imagines by simply picking up a pen.

Seeing Xing Yong talking to someone inside, Xiao Chun took the initiative to knock on the door.

"Captain Xing, Xiao Chun might be able to draw the bad guys."

Xing Yong was taken aback when he drew it. Was it the drawing he understood?

Drawing forensic techniques is a very difficult skill. As far as he knows, there are only a handful of such technicians in the country, and the provincial department only has one expert. However, even with that skill, the drawing only achieves a 30-40% likeness and can only play a supporting role.

Xiaochun can do this too?

Looking at the little guy's wet, puppy-like eyes, Xing Yong was somewhat suspicious. "How can Xiao Chun draw someone he's never even met?"
