Chapter 854: Murong Qiao and I Are Waiting for You

Editor: Henyee Translations

In fact, Huo Yichen didn’t find any key clues in the small restaurant.

It was better to say that after he checked in private, he could only confirm that Murong Qiao had indeed been to this place. However, firstly, the surveillance video couldn’t confirm any effective information. The computer only had a black and white screen that was clearly broken. Secondly, there was probably something on the notebook at the front desk. Unfortunately, it was deliberately torn off. Clearly, they didn’t want to leave any evidence for him to track down.

The situation was at a deadlock.

Huo Yichen could only return the way he came and flip over from the window he had broken. Then, just as he was about to leave, he realized that there was a back door behind the small restaurant.

It was not that he didn’t notice it when he was indoors just now, but now that he was staring at the back door, he suddenly circled around. After looking around, he realized that there was a surveillance camera in another shop not far away.

Huo Yichen immediately had an idea. He turned around and walked towards the shop with surveillance cameras.

“h.e.l.lo, can I see the surveillance footage of your shop? I’m looking for someone.” Huo Yichen went in and explained his intentions to the shopkeeper.

This shop was a mini-mart. It looked narrow. The shopkeeper looked to be an uncle in his forties. He was sitting at the counter and scrolling through some videos on his phone in boredom. When he heard someone coming, he was so lazy that he didn’t want to look up.

“I’m sorry, but the surveillance footage in our shop can’t be easily shown to others.”

When that person heard that the other party was not here to buy goods, he immediately waved his hand in frustration, indicating for the other party to leave and not disturb his peace.

Huo Yichen didn’t say anything. He just opened his wallet and took out a few red notes to put on the counter.

The bright color attracted the attention of the uncle at the counter almost instantly. He looked up and his eyes lit up when he saw it. He stood up solicitously and made way to expose the old computer in front of Huo Yichen.

“Take a look, take a look. You can take as long as you want!”

The uncle quickly took the red notes in his hand. After feeling the thickness on his fingertips, he laughed until he couldn’t open his eyes and went out happily.

Just these few red notes were equivalent to the turnover of the mart for a day or two. This person was really generous!

Huo Yichen couldn’t care less. After the other party left, he went straight to the computer and investigated the surveillance footage.

He was not sure of the time, so he only started to set up the surveillance cameras according to the speed limit before he came today. The surveillance camera was a little old, and he didn’t know if the equipment was from a few years ago. He could only see a blurry scene. Fortunately, the characteristics of the characters were still quite clear.

Looking at the pedestrians pa.s.sing by on the computer from time to time, Huo Yichen frowned impatiently. Then, he sped up and stared at the blurry screen without blinking, wanting to not miss any clues and details.

Fortunately, he didn’t return empty-handed this time.

The surveillance footage followed the fast image and finally turned back to four hours ago when a black van parked at the entrance of the shop.

Huo Yichen seemed to have sensed something. Then, he reached out and slowed down the speed of the surveillance cameras. After more than ten minutes, he saw a man coming out of the back door of the small restaurant with someone on his shoulder.

Found it!

Huo Yichen stared at the man on the video. Although he couldn’t see the facial features of the girl he was carrying, he was very sure that this was Murong Qiao based on her clothes and Jiang Chi’s previous description.

Then, he saw Huo Ya, who had sent the envelope to the company previously, appear on the surveillance video. She seemed to be following the man.

Huo Ya looked like she knew what was going on. She was not surprised by the man’s appearance at all. She even cooperated with him to open the trunk of the van and watched helplessly as he put Murong Qiao inside. Then, Huo Ya got in with the others and the black van drove off in a certain direction.

The other party left.

After confirming that Murong Qiao had been tied up and forced to leave, Huo Yichen immediately had a new direction to investigate.

After recording the surveillance video he had seen with his phone and sending it to Jiang Chi, he stood up and walked out.

The longer Murong Qiao disappeared, the more dangerous it would be.

After confirming that the video had been sent to Jiang Chi, Huo Yichen walked out and brushed past the smiling uncle. Just as he was about to return to his car and leave, he felt a hand on his shoulder.

He turned around almost instantly and met the gaze of a man who had appeared beside him at some point.

The other party was a little timid, and he was wearing tattered clothes. He looked like a tramp. Huo Yichen frowned, but the other party’s grip was very strong.

“Are you here to look for Murong Qiao?”

He asked directly.

Huo Yichen originally planned to break free from the other party, but when he heard him suddenly mention this name, he immediately stopped moving. His gaze also paused on the other party, probing and thinking.

That person didn’t seem to be in a hurry and only asked him this question. Seeing Huo Yichen’s silent reaction after being asked, he simply asked again. The mechanical repet.i.tion was a little strange.

Huo Yichen nodded in acknowledgment. In the end, he saw the other party search his pocket for a long time before taking out a very old phone. It looked like a brand that had been around for more than ten years. It couldn’t be connected to the internet and could only be used to make calls.

“Someone asked me to give this to you,” the man said. Then, ignoring Huo Yichen’s reaction, he quickly searched the other party’s pocket and took out his phone. Then, he threw it under his feet and crushed it. After confirming that it couldn’t be used, he muttered something and left with a chuckle.

Looking at the ruined phone on the ground, Huo Yichen frowned deeply. Then, he looked at the dilapidated and old-fashioned phone in his hand and pressed the “On” b.u.t.ton as if he had expected something. After the ancient animation ended, there was only one number.

He dialed it.

“Looks like you’ve already found that small restaurant?” A brisk and bright female voice came from the other end of the phone. It was picked up almost instantly. It looked like the other party had been waiting for the call for a long time.

Huo Yichen’s eyes darkened. “Jiang Weiyang, what do you want to do?”

Even though this phone was a little too old and sometimes the sound quality of the call was not very good, he could still tell from the other party’s tone and voice that the person on the other end of the phone was Jiang Weiyang, who had not played any tricks for a while.

“I want to see your feelings,” Jiang Weiyang replied matter-of-factly. Then, she gave Huo Yichen an address. It was the port where the cruise ship had left.

That man was naturally sent by Jiang Weiyang. She had determined that Huo Yichen would definitely chase after her here. Therefore, she found someone to deliberately wait here for him to destroy his cell phone. It was also a safety move. She didn’t want anyone to ruin her plan too early.

“It only takes 20 minutes to drive from the small restaurant to the cruise ship at full speed. I’ve prepared a ship for you there.”

“Murong Qiao and I are waiting for you.”

After saying this, Jiang Weiyang hung up the phone without hesitation. Looking at the surging seawater in front of her, she couldn’t help but heave a happy sigh of relief.

Feeling that everything was going according to plan, Jiang Weiyang even sang a happy song.

The results she wanted would come out soon.
