Chapter 256 Too Slow

Mu Qian kept looking at the direction in which Ye Jinfan was leaving, her body tense and terrifyingly stiff.

Huo Jinxi just hugged her without using any force to stop her, and Mu Qian didn't rush out again.

Huo Jinxi knew that she had no strength left.

Although she remained calm as ever, her worry about Ye Xi and the fear of losing Ye Xi had filled her whole body and mind.

"Do you want to stay here, or do you want to go home and take a rest first?" Huo Jinxi asked in a low voice.

Mu Qian was silent for a while before she came back to her senses and her eyes gradually calmed down.

"I can't stay here." Mu Qian said, "I want to find Rong Heng!"

The two people left the hospital and drove to Rong Heng's unit.

Huo Jinxi always held Mu Qian's hand tightly, but Mu Qian always looked out the car window.

There was silence all the way.

When they arrived at the police station, Mu Qian suddenly let go of Huo Jinxi's hand and ran directly into the office.

It was already night, but when Mu Qian entered the office, it was still a bustling scene - some people were checking information, some were making phone calls, and some were sitting in front of computers and carefully checking the surveillance.

Rong Heng happened to come out of the office and was startled when he saw Mu Qian. Then, he saw Huo Jinxi who was following Mu Qian.

Mu Qian quickly walked up to him and asked, "How is the investigation going?"

Rong Heng looked solemn and said: "There is no progress yet."

"What about surveillance?" Mu Qian asked, "The streets and alleys are all under surveillance. Is it that difficult to check a car?"

"Although there is a lot of surveillance now, there are still many blind spots." Rong Heng said, "In the surveillance we have so far, we don't see any footage of Cheng Ye doing anything, and we can't prove that he is related to Ye Xi's case."

Mu Qian thought for a while and then said: "Official surveillance can't see it, but what about private ones? Stores along the street, driving recorders of passing cars, as long as he does it, there will be clues! Even if he has nothing to do with this case.

, it’s always related to other cases!”

"I know." Rong Heng said, "But the scope of the investigation is so large, it will take time, and it cannot be done in a short time."

"I can help!" Mu Qian said.

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone busy in the office raised their heads and looked in her direction.

Rong Heng frowned slightly, raised his eyes to look at Huo Jinxi, and said, "This is against the rules."

Mu Qian paused for a moment, then continued: "Then as an insider of the case, as a reporter who had insight into Cheng Ye's actions early on, I will cooperate with your investigation. Is this in line with the rules?"

After hearing this, Rong Heng pondered for a moment and couldn't help but look at Huo Jinxi again.

Huo Jinxi lowered his eyes and nodded.

Rong Heng sighed slightly. Then he said: "Then come with me."

Mu Qian was arranged to the conference room and given a bunch of monitoring information.

What she has to do next is to look for clues from this large amount of surveillance data that may not even exist.

This is a very arduous and boring job, but Mu Qian's eyes are firm and sharp. As soon as he got the information, he immediately opened four videos at the same time and watched them attentively.

Seeing her like this, Rong Heng looked at Huo Jinxi beside him and said, "Second brother, I know she feels bad. I will help you keep an eye on her. You should go back and rest first."

"No need." Huo Jinxi said, "You just go about your business, I will stay here with her."

After hearing this, Rong Heng wanted to say something more, but considering Huo Jinxi's temperament, he gave up and turned around and walked out of the conference room.

Huo Jinxi then turned around, walked to the seat next to Mu Qian, pulled out the chair and sat down.

Mu Qian just looked at the computer screen intently, not looking at him.

Huo Jinxi didn't speak or make any other movement until he sat next to her and quietly watched the numerous surveillance images on the computer with her.

When I looked at it, I saw the dawn.

After a long and torturous night, Mu Qian still sat in the chair in the original position, staring at the computer screen without blinking.

Huo Jinxi looked at her several times, but never said anything.

There was a knock at the door, and the door opened. Qi Yuan poked his head in and called him in a low voice: "Mr. Huo?"

He still has an important shareholders' meeting to hold today and must not waste his time here.

Huo Jinxi then leaned slightly towards Mu Qian, "I'm going to the company. You should read the information here and remember to eat."

Mu Qian stared at the computer screen intently, as if she didn't hear anything.

Huo Jinxi paused and then said, "I've already said hello to the hospital. If anything happens, I will notify you as soon as possible."

Hearing the word "hospital", Mu Qiancai seemed to come back to her senses. After turning her head to look at him, she nodded slowly.

Huo Jinxi looked at her quietly for a moment, lowered his head and kissed the corner of her lips, then stood up and left.

On this day, due to some internal and overseas situations within the company, Huo Jinxi spent all his time in the conference room.

After a lengthy meeting one day, he immediately rushed to the police station.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the police station, I opened the door of the conference room and saw that Mu Qian was nowhere to be seen.

Huo Jinxi turned around and saw Rong Heng coming back from outside in a hurry.

"Second brother?" Rong Heng saw him and walked up to him. He looked into the conference room and couldn't help but wonder, "Hey, where is Mu Qian?"

Before Huo Jinxi could speak, Rong Heng quickly turned around and called a colleague, "Where's Mrs. Huo?"

"Mrs. Huo is out."

Huo Jinxi's face darkened.

"Going out?" Rong Heng asked, "Where did you go? Did you say anything?"

"I didn't say it." The man said, "It's just that before she went out, she kept mumbling...'too slow'..."

Rong Heng quickly looked at Huo Jinxi, "Second brother, how about I accompany you to find her?"

"No need." Huo Jinxi said, "Let her go."

"Second brother?"

Huo Jinxi glanced at him and said, "Don't worry. Your way of doing things is not her style. If something like this happens, she must do something. Otherwise, she won't be who she is now."



Huo Jinxi guessed right.

For Mu Qian, Rong Heng's way of doing things was really too slow.

She couldn't wait any longer. She had to find out immediately whether Ye Xi's incident had anything to do with Cheng Ye and whether there was a mastermind behind it.

She sat alone in the most luxurious and lively bar in the south of the city. After drinking her seventh glass of wine and dismissing a dozen men who came up to chat with her, she finally waited for Cheng Ye.

She didn't ask him out, but this man really came after her.

The moment she saw him, Mu Qian suddenly smiled.

But Cheng Ye saw something unusual about her at a glance. He rarely put away his careless look, took away the wine glass in front of Mu Qian, frowned slightly and looked at her, "What's wrong with you?"

"Guess." Mu Qian replied.

Cheng Ye stared at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled, "Isn't it because of your husband again?"

Mu Qian also smiled. After laughing, she took the wine glass in Cheng Ye's hand again, drank it all, and then slowly said: "There are many people in this world who make me disappointed and despair. But I have given

There are only one or two people I hope for..."

"One or two?" Cheng Ye tilted his head and looked at her and asked, "Am I one of them?"

Mu Qian narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at him for a while, then nodded slowly, "As far as this is concerned, you count as one."

Cheng Ye asked with great interest: "Who else is there?"

"My best friend." Mu Qian said slowly, "Yesterday morning, her car hit the guardrail of the cross-river bridge, and she and her car fell into the river."

The smile on Cheng Ye's face suddenly paused in an extremely subtle way.
