Chapter 720: Chapter 718: Finding the True Culprit

Fang Wei nodded and signaled to the two security technicians beside him. In no time, they found the footage of the person appearing at that time and place.

"Yes, that’s her."

Chen Tianlong recognized her instantly since she was the only woman appearing at that time.

It wasn’t the weekend, and the store sold rather expensive items, so foot traffic wasn’t heavy. Moreover, it was rush hour, hence not many people were shopping.

If not for Wushuang urgently needing underwear, she wouldn’t have come at this time. But that urgency actually helped make finding her easier now.

"Extract the segment where this person appears and hand it over to Mr. Nie," Fang Wei instructed.

"Yes, boss."

The technicians swiftly extracted the footage and placed it on a USB drive. Shortly after, everything was ready, and Fang Wei handed the video directly to Chen Tianlong.

"Thank you, Boss Fang." Chen Tianlong was very pleased. He hadn’t expected Fang Wei to act so swiftly, which made him admire Fang Wei.

"You’re welcome, young man. Hurry up and take care of your business." Fang Wei could tell from Lin Batian’s tone that the matter was urgent, so he kindly reminded Chen Tianlong not to waste time.

Chen Tianlong nodded, quickly left the building with Zhang Yufei, and they rushed to the police station without bothering to eat. It was around twelve thirty in the afternoon, not too late for lunch.

"Hey! Xiaokan, have you had lunch yet? If not, pack two spicy beef noodles for me and remember to add extra vegetables."

After getting in the car, Zhang Yufei suddenly felt hungry. While handling affairs was important, she couldn’t starve herself. So, she called her assistant Xiaokan.

"Not yet, okay, I got it." Even if Xiaokan had eaten, he would never admit it. When a leader orders, how could one decline? It’s a chance to perform well.

"Thank you." Zhang Yufei treated her subordinates well. After all, it’s not easy for a girl to handle tasks; treating others kindly means they’ll be genuinely devoted to you.

Zhang Yufei sped away in the police car, as the incident at South Sea No.1 Middle School was quite urgent. Hence, she could sound the siren and speed through traffic, with no one daring to stop her. Soon, they arrived at the South Sea City Criminal Police Brigade office.

Entering the building, the atmosphere wasn’t as spacious as Zhao Bing’s bureau, though he was the boss; Zhang Yufei was merely a brigade captain, yet one of Zhao Bing’s capable aides.

They quickly reached the Information Technology Department. The technicians hadn’t taken a break yet. Seeing Zhang Yufei, they hastily greeted her respectfully, "Hello, Captain. Is there something you need us to do?"

"Guys, there’s an urgent matter needing your assistance." Zhang Yufei didn’t delay, she took the USB from Chen Tianlong and continued, "I have a video here, extract the woman who appeared behind the door and check her information in the South Sea City’s facial recognition database for me."

"Sure, don’t worry, Captain. Leave it to me," said a young man in his twenties, confidently.

"Okay, good." Hearing such reassurance from her subordinates, Zhang Yufei was at ease to return to her office for lunch. She had just asked her assistant Xiaokan to get spicy beef noodles, "Let me know when it’s done."

"Certainly, Captain." The young man nodded.

Led by Zhang Yufei, Chen Tianlong reached her office, located on the third floor. Next to the window stood a big, lush tree, its large leaves unknown in name. Yet, the weather in the south was green year-round, so it didn’t matter much.

Inside the room, everything was tidied up meticulously. Zhang Yufei sat at her desk, stretched, and said, "Chen Tianlong, we’ve known each other for so long now. Remember when you stole my car and I chased after you like crazy? Haha."

Seeing Zhang Yufei’s expression, Chen Tianlong was speechless, smiling wryly, "At that time, seeing such a fierce policewoman chasing me scared me out of my wits."

"Hmph, who’s fierce? You’re the fierce one! I’m very gentle, okay?"

With a sideways glance at Chen Tianlong, though her character was quite bold and carefree, often called fierce by others which she didn’t mind, she felt a sting in her heart when Chen Tianlong said it.

"Haha, I was just joking. Don’t take it to heart, hehe." Noticing Zhang Yufei’s expression change, Chen Tianlong knew she was upset and hurriedly changed the subject, "Sweat, this matter—I wonder if we can resolve it today. If not, it’ll be troublesome. By tomorrow morning, news about Wushuang will be everywhere in South Sea City’s streets."

"Don’t be too worried. I’ll definitely help you solve it." Though slightly angry earlier, seeing the smile suddenly fade from Chen Tianlong’s face made Zhang Yufei realize his concern.

"Thanks!" At that moment, Chen Tianlong felt a warmth that even the most arrogant person can show tenderness sometimes. Chen Tianlong was evidently one of those people who are tender when necessary and fiercely arrogant otherwise.

Just as Zhang Yufei was about to say something, there was a knock at the door. She was briefly startled before remembering her assistant, and she said toward the door, "Xiaokan, come in."

Soon, a handsome young man entered, appearing around eighteen years old, slightly younger than Chen Tianlong. After Zhang Yufei took a bowl of beef noodles, she gestured for Xiaokan to give another to Chen Tianlong.

"Uh, brother-in-law, this is for you." 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

Seeing them enter the office and close the door, Xiaokan deduced they had a close relationship. Based on his investigative experience, with Chen Tianlong looking calm, not flustered or blushing, the two must be quite an intimate pair. And being a man and a woman, only one possibility remained—they were a couple.

Even Zhou Qiang, the vice-captain whom everyone agrees on as a perfect match, rarely gets a chance to enter Zhang Yufei’s office. And when he does, the door’s wide open, treating him formally.

Now, not only were they alone, but Zhang Yufei ordered noodles specifically for Chen Tianlong without even asking about his preferences. Clearly, if they weren’t a couple, what were they?

In truth, even Zhang Yufei hadn’t realized she was treating Chen Tianlong as though he were her boyfriend. Being involved, she was confused, yet outsiders immediately noticed something peculiar between them.

"Um, thanks..." Chen Tianlong was briefly unresponsive. But suddenly feeling it wasn’t right, he quickly said, "Uh, you’ve misunderstood, I’m not..."
