Reborn with the Infinite World Panel-Chapter 58: 66 Investigation Bureau 6

"Where did you find out about this?" Su Xiao pondered. How come she didn’t know Ming Mei liked paper cranes?

"Ming Mei’s QQ signature says it," Nan Chu replied:

"Fold it into a paper crane, Gong Guan will know, without having looked inside."

"Otherwise, if taken directly, Gong Guan might suspect it’s been peeked at."

Li Wenya nodded, "Makes sense."

Su Xiao: "Who’s going to take it up?"

"I’ll take it up," Xia Mingyu said.

Then Xia Mingyu took the paper crane upstairs.

"Knock, knock."

"Come in."

"Manager Gong, I was just eating at the small shop upstairs, and someone asked me to give this to you."

When Gong Guan saw the paper crane, his expression subtly changed, "Was it a man or a woman who gave it to you?"

"A beautiful lady."

"Alright, thank you."

"You’re welcome, Manager Gong."

Xia Mingyu left Gong Guan’s office.

Once Xia Mingyu left, Gong Guan immediately unfolded the paper crane. Upon reading the note inside, he immediately left the office.

As soon as Gong Guan left, Nan Chu and the others quickly entered Gong Guan’s office to start searching.

Ke Nian found Gong Guan’s notebook, which had odd patterns on it.

Ke Nian said, "These patterns look really peculiar."

Nan Chu squatted down and saw a USB stick stuck under the computer desk.

Nan Chu took the USB down, "Found a USB, hidden very cleverly, actually stuck under the computer desk."

The USB was inserted into Gong Guan’s computer, but it was password protected.

They tried Gong Guan’s birthday, Ming Mei’s birthday, and the computer password but none worked.

Ke Nian spoke up, "Could it be related to the special patterns in the notebook?"

Everyone studied the notebook together.

Li Wenya suddenly had an epiphany, "Do you think if we overlay the patterns on these three pages we might get the password?"

Ke Nian, hearing this, held the notebook up to the light. Through the shadows, numbers seemed visible.

"3016," Ke Nian said.

They entered 3016, and the USB was indeed unlocked. Inside was only one document; opening the document revealed some personnel records.

Gu Yue, age 21, ID number: ..., 10, A, H.

Yang Momo, age 23, ID number: ..., 15, A+, B.

Liao Jia, age 22, ID number: ..., 14, A+, B.

Tian Yan, age 18, ID number: ..., 20, A+, W.

...

...

Guo Lexi, age 27, ID number: ..., 6, C+, M.

...

...

"Is this some kind of list?" Li Wenya asked in confusion.

Nan Chu silently copied a version into his phone.

Su Xiao spoke up, "What do these numbers and letters after the ID represent?"

After discussing it, Nan Chu heard someone coming upstairs, and they quickly returned things to their proper places and left the PR department.

In the afternoon, Nan Chu and the others sent the event plan to the manager. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Later, they were assigned to another event site to help out.

At 5:30 PM, they finally returned to the office.

By 7:30 PM, colleagues had been leaving work one by one.

Only Nan Chu and five others were left.

Just as they were about to leave, the office suddenly lost power.

Then Nan Chu heard a "bang."

Nan Chu quickly turned on the phone light, "I heard a sound, let’s go check it out."

Li Wenya and Su Xiao held hands, tightly clinging together, followed by Nan Chu.

The three men followed behind.

From the second-floor light, the lobby on the first floor had a corpse, it was Gong Guan!

Beside him, in red paint, were the words "Person of Sin."

Nan Chu, with a serious expression, said, "It’s Gong Guan, call the police quickly."

Shao Zheng called the police.

Everyone hurried down to the first floor.

"You wait here, I’ll go check the circuit breaker," Nan Chu said.

"I’ll go with you," Ke Nian offered.

"Alright."

The two went to the circuit breaker, which had indeed been pulled down, and Nan Chu pushed it back up.

Power returned to the office.

Back in the lobby, Li Wenya and the others found Gong Guan’s phone; they unlocked it using his birthday.

The most recent call was from an unknown number, lasting over twenty minutes.

Also, Gong Guan’s phone contained many transfer records to a username called W.

This W only had receipt records; neither party had said a word.

Seeing the letter W, Nan Chu spoke, "Could this W be related to the W we saw in the USB document earlier?"

"Very likely," Ke Nian said, "If W is one person, then H, B, M might represent different people."

"Check the notes if there are profiles of people with these initials."

Li Wenya checked but found nothing related to H, B, M.

However, she did find information on other victims.

Through chat records, it was discovered these girls were deceived by Gong Guan, threatened with private photos into sex work.

"Inhuman!" Li Wenya exclaimed angrily.

"He’s dead now; in a way, that’s justice," Su Xiao said.

After chatting for a while, they heard police sirens, and Li Wenya quickly put the phone down.

"I’m Officer Jin Yu from Six Cities police, who called us?"

Shao Zheng replied, "Officer, it was me."

Then Nan Chu and the others were taken to make statements. After that, the day’s filming concluded.

Filming wrapped up, Nan Chu and Yang Qin headed to the airport. At the airport, Nan Chu unexpectedly ran into Si Junyan.

Si Junyan also saw Nan Chu, walked over directly, "Nan Chu, are you heading back to Beijing too?"

"Yes," Nan Chu nodded.

"Is your flight MF8328?"

"Yes."

"What a coincidence, I’m on that flight too," Si Junyan thought it really was a coincidence.

Meeting like this.

Then Si Junyan inquired and upgraded Nan Chu’s ticket to first class, sitting together with him.

As for the assistant Yang Qin, still seated in economy class.

The plane took off at 10:05 PM.

"How was the filming; tiresome?"

"Not too tired," Nan Chu smiled, "Quite interesting."

Si Junyan chatted for a while, then said, "Even if you’re not tired, get some rest; filming took all day."

"I’ll wake you when we arrive."

"Okay, thanks," Nan Chu closed his eyes to rest.

After a while, as Nan Chu’s breathing steadied, Si Junyan knew Nan Chu was asleep.

Si Junyan slightly tilted his head, just watching Nan Chu.

After a good while, Si Junyan finally looked away.

When the plane was about to land, Si Junyan woke Nan Chu.

After disembarking, Si Junyan said, "My assistant is picking me up; do you want a ride? Save you from having to hail a taxi."

"No need to trouble you."

"Where are you headed? Jiang Han’s place?"

"It’s already late, by the time I get to Jiang Han’s, it’ll be past one; I don’t want to disturb his rest."

"I’m planning to return to Guangqu Jinmao Mansion." This is one of the properties she inherited after returning to the Nan Family.

In addition to this, she has properties at Palm Springs International Apartments, Qingcui Garden, Runze Imperial Mansion, and Yuan Xiang.

During the New Year holidays, she’s tidied up to move in.

Now it’s already late, driving home will take about half an hour; going to Jiang Han’s will take about an hour.

Nan Chu chose not to seek out Jiang Han, avoiding disturbing his rest.

"How coincidental, I also live in Guangqu Jinmao Mansion. Are you North or South District?"

"North District."
