Quick, female general, I traveled through time to save my father

Chapter 287 Human Traffickers Deserve to Die 32

Sirong sat on the edge of the bed, her fingers unconsciously clenching the edge of the phone.

The Qin family, a behemoth that has been entrenched in this city for many years, has a presence everywhere in both the political and business circles.

From Executive Vice Mayor Qin Haoran, to Deputy Director of the Public Security Bureau Qin Wenfeng, to Qin family members in key positions such as the Finance Bureau and the Land and Resources Bureau... their network of influence covers almost the entire city.

The construction project of the new urban area was entirely undertaken by Dingsheng Group.

"I can't wait any longer," Sirong muttered to herself. She quickly stood up, changed into a light workout outfit, and stuffed her phone and necessary tools into her backpack. No matter what, she had to go explore it herself, even if the path ahead was a dangerous one.

In the living room, Teacher Zheng and Cai Zhihong were still immersed in the information of the missing person, trying to find some overlooked clues.

Teacher Zheng spread out several photos of missing people on the coffee table, tapped one of them with his finger, and said, "The places where these people disappeared are very scattered, and some of them disappeared in shopping malls.

These places are all monitored by surveillance cameras, so how did they manage to avoid surveillance? "

Cai Zhihong nodded and pointed to another photo: "Look, this Chen Jing, she disappeared in the restroom of the shopping mall, and the surveillance cameras in this shopping mall are very comprehensive.

There was also a camera installed at the bathroom door, and the surveillance camera only captured Chen Jing entering the bathroom, but not her coming out.

"That's right." Teacher Zheng pushed his glasses up on his nose, frowning as he searched through the photos with his hands, "When Chen Jing entered the bathroom, she was carrying several shopping bags.

But after her family reported her missing, we repeatedly watched the surveillance footage from those days and saw nothing of Chen Jing's belongings being taken out of the bathroom."

The two continued to compare the information of the missing persons, trying to find more connections.

Cai Zhihong took out a map and marked the missing locations one by one.

Sirong walked over, took the marker from Cai Zhihong's hand, and connected all the marked points with the pen.

An astonishing pattern gradually emerged. These locations actually revolved around a central point, which was the construction site of the new urban area reconstruction project.

Sirong put down her pen and stared at the documents on the table with a serious look. She pursed her lips and finally spoke to break the silence in the room.

"Have you checked here?"

Teacher Zheng pushed his glasses up and nodded slightly, his tone a little cautious. "We've checked the perimeter. The road in front of the construction site is a major traffic route. Ever since someone was reported missing, we've been checking the surveillance cameras on the road."

But so far, no particularly valuable clues have been found.”

Yu Zhuangzhuang added, "Yes, we also went into the construction site to inspect it under the pretext of fire safety. But... the environment there was too complicated and there were so many people, so we could only go through the process and give it a rough check, but we didn't find anything unusual."

Sirong listened but didn't respond immediately. She gently tugged at a marker on the coffee table with her fingers, watching it roll back and forth across the surface, making a slight noise. Her eyes flickered slightly as the marker rolled, as if she were pondering something.

"I want to go in and take a look." She finally spoke again, with an unquestionable firmness in her tone.

Yu Zhuangzhuang immediately said, "I'll go with you! With more people, we can look after you."

Teacher Zheng also interrupted to dissuade him, "It's better for Zhuangzhuang and I to go. A place like a construction site, a girl like you would stand out too much. Besides, most of the people there are men who make a living by physical labor. If anything happens, we can handle it better."

Sirong's fingers were still gently moving the marker on the coffee table, and her eyes were flashing with thought.

She understood that Teacher Zheng's concerns were justified. A girl her age would be too conspicuous in a place like a construction site. Even if she could successfully enter the site, everyone would pay extra attention to her, which would be detrimental to the investigation.

Teacher Zheng noticed Sirong's hesitation and said, "Sirong, you stay outside to provide support, while Zhuangzhuang and I go in to investigate.

We can disguise ourselves as new workers and blend into the construction site. We won't attract attention and can move around freely. We might even be able to learn some useful information by chatting with our fellow workers."

Yu Zhuangzhuang also nodded: "Yes, in a place like a construction site, everyone is usually busy working, and no one will pay special attention to the new workers. We can take this opportunity to investigate further."

Sirong also understood that what they both said made sense.

She closed her eyes and the image of Xiao 5's scan results appeared in her mind, looking at the metal area under the ground.

Even Xiao5's scanning function could not penetrate that area, which meant that whether it was made of metal or some kind of high-tech barrier, it made that area an undetectable "blind spot."

She didn't think that Teacher Zheng and Yu Zhuangzhuang could find any useful clues in such an environment.

Not to mention Yu Zhuangzhuang and her, she also has another identity, which is working for Qian Duoduo.

If the people in Qian Duoduo's company are colluding with the people in this construction site, it is very likely that Yu Zhuangzhuang will be recognized, which may cause even more trouble.

Sirong finally stopped fiddling with the marker, her eyes becoming determined. She raised her head and looked at Yu Zhuangzhuang, her tone filled with unquestionable determination.

"I'm just going to take a look around there. It's around four in the afternoon now, so even if you want to go there, you'll need to make arrangements tomorrow. I'll just treat it as a run and pass by there to check out the surrounding terrain."

Her tone was calm, but her determination was evident.

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhuangzhuang immediately stood up from the sofa and walked towards his house across the street. As he walked, he said, "Wait for me to change my clothes, and then we can go together."

Sirong didn't refuse. She knew that Teacher Zheng and Yu Zhuangzhuang would not agree, so she went alone. It would be better to take Yu Zhuangzhuang with her. If anything unexpected happened, the two of them could still look after each other.

Yu Zhuangzhuang moved quickly and changed into a set of sportswear in just a few minutes, including a blue quick-drying shirt and black sweatpants, with a pair of professional running shoes on his feet. He looked energetic.

He picked up a long running towel and put it around his neck, as if he was ready for a long period of exercise.

"Let's go." Yu Zhuangzhuang picked up the phone and said to Sirong, his tone full of eagerness to try.

Sirong was already prepared. She was wearing a black tracksuit and a baseball cap with the brim pulled low, almost covering half of her face. She stuffed her phone, keys, and other small items into a small pocket hidden inside her tracksuit with neat and tidy movements.

"I'm ready." Sirong nodded in a calm tone.
