“Auntie.” Feng Jing saw that Yin Tao’s bedroom door was not closed, so he walked upstairs to take a look. He didn’t expect to find Feng Ya chatting with Yin Tao.
‘What are you talking about?” Looking at Yin Tao’s troubled expression, Feng Jing could roughly guess what Feng Ya had said.
He said to Feng Ya helplessly, “Auntie, I still have work to discuss with Xiaotao. Go back to your room and rest early.”
When Feng Ya heard what Feng Jing said, she thought that he had finally come to his senses and was going to confess his feelings to Yin Tao. She hurriedly left the room with a smile and kept explaining to them, “You guys chat. I’m going back to my room. Don’t worry, I sleep like a log. I won’t come out the entire night. ‘
Feng Jing rubbed the space between his eyebrows and looked at Feng Ya as she closed the door gently.
“I’m sorry, my Auntie shoots off her mouth sometimes. Don’t mind her.” Feng Jing didn’t know how to explain it. He didn’t know what Feng Ya had said to Yin Tao.
“It’s fine. Auntie is a good person. We get along just fine.” Yin Tao pinched the corner of her clothes uneasily. She was already a little nervous to be alone in the bedroom with Feng Jing. Moreover, Yin Tao’s heart was beating wildly because of what Feng Ya had just said.
“Xiaotao, I was going to tell you something when we were on our way here. Do you have time now?’ Feng Jing didn’t notice Yin Tao’s nervousness. He had been looking at the case records just now and he was preoccupied with the progress of the case.
When Yin Tao heard what Feng Jing said, she regained her composure. It seemed that Feng Jing really had something to discuss with her. Yin Tao looked around the room. There was no place to sit, but the sight of the two of them sitting on the bed and talking about a murder case was too weird.
Yin Tao thought for a moment and shifted the sofa by the window nearer the bed. She sat on the sofa and gestured for Feng Jing to sit on the bed.
Feng Jing didn’t think too much about it. He sat on the bed and updated Yin Tao about the recent progress of the case.
“Xiaotao, there’s been a new move in the underground casino we went to previously.”
Looking at Feng Jing’s serious expression, Yin Tao felt that the matter might be more complicated, so she was all ears.
“The undercover agent planted by the police in the casino has updated that the casino has been conducting more and more black market transactions recently.”
“Undercover… Is it that Officer Wu we saw last time?” Yin Tao remembered that before they went to the underground casino, they were brought to the black market by an undercover police officer called Wu Hao.
“Yes, he mentioned the underground auction before. There have been a lot of movements recently,” Feng Jing said.
When Yin Tao heard the words ‘underground auction’, she recalled the dismemberment case that she had dealt with previously. “Brother Feng, what exactly is the underground auction about?”
Yin Tao was very curious about the underground auction, but the threshold to enter was very high, so the police had never found any evidence.
“Our people have never entered the auction.” Feng Jing frowned slightly. He felt that there must be many shady transactions at the underground auction. Otherwise, the police would have been able to investigate further.
“But from the analysis, they should be smuggling items or even human trafficking.”
“A living person?’ Yin Tao widened her eyes in surprise. She had heard of kidnapping women and children, but she had never seen an auction of human beings.
“That’s right. The illegal trafficking of organs should only be a small part of the black market. Their methods are extremely cruel. Sometimes, they even organize mortal combats.”
There were some things that Feng Jing had heard from his informant in the black market. However, it was very hard to enter the black market. The people who were really involved were either very wealthy or powerful. It was really not easy to catch them all in one fell swoop.
“Mortal kombat?” Yin Tao asked Feng Jing in confusion, “Do you mean blood sport, like how it was done in the west, where people bet on the final survivor of a fight?”
“Something like that. In their eyes, there’s no difference between humans and animals. Any life is equally worthless. ‘
Feng Jing despised the black market’s activities, but without concrete evidence, there was no way to bring them all to justice.
“That’s too cruel. Then can’t we go to the venue to obtain evidence?” When Yin Tao thought of people fighting to their deaths, she felt that the black market must be eradicated.
“No one can bring recording equipment to that kind of occasion. Moreover, it shouldn’t be so easy to enter the venue.”
Feng Jing knew that if he wanted to deal with the black market, he had to capture the leader of the black market. However, the black market was not established in a day or two. It would not be so easy to dismantle it..
