Chapter 161 - 161 Cell phone
161 Cell phone
Next was the Wan Family, which was run by Wan Bo, president of Wan Cheng Corporation, and his two sons, Wan Xu and Wan Zhe.
Although the Wan family’s business was not as big as the Feng family’s, they had many heirs willing to take over and manage the business. Wan Xu and Wan Zhe were both capable businessmen.
On the other hand, the future of the Feng family was not as optimistic. Old Master Feng had only raised a son and a daughter. His eldest son, Feng Zhi, was Feng Jing’s father. He had never been interested in business since he was young. He became a professor at a university. He was indifferent to fame and fortune, and had no interest in the family business at all.
Old Master Feng finally managed to convince him to try his hands at a company project, but Feng Ye and Feng Jing were kidnapped. Feng Zhi couldn’t accept the fact that his son died. It took him a whole year to get over the trauma, and he couldn’t muster the strength to manage the business anymore.
Although Old Master Feng’s youngest daughter, Feng Ya, had inherited her father’s strong personality and was very business-minded, she was a free spirited person who didn’t want to be tied down. All she wanted to do was travel the world. Even if she was willing to take over her father’s company for the time being, it was not a long-term solution.
Old Master Feng then placed all his attention on his grandson, Feng Jing. Feng Jing didn’t fail him. He had been outstanding in terms of talent and appearance since he was young. However, because of what happened to his brother, Feng Jing was a little stubborn. He only wanted to become a police officer.
Although his family violently objected, Feng Jing still insisted on his choice. Moreover, he had made many achievements at such a young age. His family couldn’t justify their objections.
Therefore, Yin Hao couldn’t understand why Feng Jing would come to City A. Clearly, Feng Jing would live a better life in the capital.
Based on the original novel, Yin Tao could roughly guess Feng Jing’s motive for coming to City A. Almost everything he did in the novel was for his brother’s case, so it was very likely that Feng Ye’s murderer was in City A.
Yin Tao felt very bored sitting in the car. Just as she was feeling a little sleepy, Feng Jing finally walked out of the villa.
“Brother Feng, have you found the location?” As soon as Feng Jing got into the car, Yin Tao asked impatiently.
“I’ve found it. It’s near Zhong Ping Road. Let’s go over and take a look now.” Feng Jing fastened his seatbelt and started the car.
Yin Tao wasn’t familiar with the streets of Zhong Ping Road, but she seemed to have heard of this place before. “Brother Feng, is Zhong Ping Road close to Meng Heng’s house? Why do I feel like I’ve heard of this place before?”
“Zhong Ping Road is closer to Zhen Yan Beauty Salon. Zhang Rui must have dropped her phone near there after coming out of the beauty salon.” Feng Jing drove to Zhong Ping Road as fast as he could with the help of GPS.
It was already late at night and there were not many pedestrians on the road. Yin Tao and Feng Jing parked the car on the opposite side of the road and walked to the Zhong Ping Road together. They started to make calls while listening out for the ringtone of phones.
“Brother Feng, although this place is a little remote, there should be some pedestrians passing by during the day. Zhang Rui’s phone can’t be in a spot that is easily seen. Otherwise, it would have been picked up long ago.”
Feng Jing felt that Yin Tao’s words made sense. He tried his best to search in some hidden places. According to the location, Zhang Rui’s phone should be nearby. However, the two of them didn’t manage to find it after searching for a long time.
“Looks like we still have to rely on the police dogs to find things.” Yin Tao squatted on the ground, feeling dejected. The alley was very dark, and it was a little difficult to rely on the torchlight on her cell phone.
Yin Tao was just about to stand up when she suddenly heard the vibration of a cell phone coming from underground.
“Brother Feng, I think it’s there!” Yin Tao pointed at the sewage well excitedly. Feng Jing looked over and saw a faint light emitted by the phone screen in the well.
“Wait for me here for a while.” Feng Jing said to Yin Tao and ran towards a 24-hour convenience store on the other side of the road.
Yin Tao squatted beside the sewage well. Because the gap was too narrow, it was impossible for her to reach her arm in. Yin Tao used her cell phone to take a few photos of Zhang Rui’s cell phone in the sewage well as evidence.
Not long after, Feng Jing ran towards Yin Tao with a plastic bag.
Yin Tao watched as Feng Jing swiftly kneaded the cheap wire hanger that he had just bought from the convenience store into the shape of a vertical strip. Feng Jing bent the bottom portion into a hook, and wrapped it in a thick layer of double-sided tape that he had also bought from the convenience store.
After making the two improvised hooks, Feng Jing half-knelt on the ground and lowered the two hooks down along the railing of the sewage well. After a few attempts, they succeeded in retrieving Zhang Rui’s cell phone from the sewage well.
