“In the end, I had no choice but to call the police.”

At this point, the housekeeper couldn’t hide the sadness on her face and burst into tears again.

Officer, my grandfather wouldn’t…”

“Auntie, don’t worry. We can’t confirm the old man’s condition yet. Don’t be too sad. We’ll definitely do our best to search.”

“The key is that you have to cooperate with us, understand?”

Team Leader Jin comforted.

“Alright… Alright.”

“When was the last time you saw the old man last night?”

” Around 11 0’clock. Because it’s my habit to check the lights in the corridor before he goes to bed, I’ll go back to sleep after I turn them off.”

” Usually, when I arrive at his door, I’ll say goodnight to him, and he’ll reply to me politely, so I can be sure that he’s still in the room.” the housekeeper said seriously.

“When did you find out that Master was not inside in the morning?”

“Around eight o’clock.” the housekeeper replied.

‘ What we can be sure of is that the old man went missing between 11 0’clock last night and 8 0’clock this morning.”

Team Leader Jin said. “Is there a camera at the door of the old man’s room?”

Qin Yuan asked.

” Yes, but for some reason, when the police came over to retrieve it today, the camera mysteriously malfunctioned.” Team Leader Jin replied.

“Traces of being tampered with again

Qin Yuan asked.

“No, I haven’t. We’ve investigated. It seems that something has interfered with the signal. Other than the video from last night, the other time periods are intact.”

“It seems like this is a premeditated kidnapping case.” Qin Yuan frowned.

It was a pity that an important clue had been lost.

“Is there anything unusual about the old master’s condition these two days? Or did he say something noteworthy?”

Qin Yuan continued to ask the housekeeper.

The housekeeper frowned and lowered her head to think carefully.

Then, he slowly said,

“There doesn’t seem to be anything special..

“Wait! Although I didn’t do anything special, when I was cleaning the living room two days ago, I realized that one of the decorative vases in the living room was missing.” the housekeeper murmured. “A vase is missing?”

Team Leader Jin frowned.

“Yes, these two vases are Master’s favorite. They were a birthday gift from

Madam when she was alive, so I paid so much attention to them.”

“This is an important clue.”

Team Leader Jin looked at Qin Yuan and said.

Qin Yuan nodded.

“Do you know when they disappeared?”

“I’m very sure about this. It probably disappeared during the day yesterday.”

“Because I went out to buy groceries at around three in the afternoon, and these two vases were placed in a conspicuous position in the hall. I would take a look at them before I went out, so I can be sure that I saw them before three in the afternoon yesterday, but when I came back at five in the afternoon, one of them was gone.”

“So, Master took one of them between three and five in the afternoon yesterday. ” the housekeeper said with certainty.

“Yes, I am. Let’s go to the scene to check.”

As he spoke, Qin Yuan and Team Leader Jin came to the hall on the first floor and arrived at the location of the missing vase.

There were indeed traces of something being moved in this position. The color of the floor where the vase was on the ground was obviously whiter than the other floors.

There were also some traces of dust on the ground that had been moved.

Unfortunately, there were no other clues.

“Can we detect human footprints outside?”

Team Leader Jin asked the police officer beside him.

” Yes, there are, but there are some scattered footprints that extend all the way to the fields outside. However, when they reach there, the footprints are washed away by the muddy soil.”

The police officers answered.

Team Leader Jin was silent. The clues were cut off again.

However, the two of them would definitely not give up. Thinking of Wei Wei’s longing eyes, Qin Yuan could not help but have a surging desire to explore.

As long as it was a person, there would definitely be some clues left behind. No one could do it flawlessly.

Qin Yuan’s mind began to spin rapidly.

He began to recall every detail of the case.

Old Master’s Dhone!

A thought flashed across Qin Yuan’s mind!

No matter what, the old man’s phone was definitely a big breakthrough!

“Does Old Ye have the habit of carrying his phone with him?”

Qin Yuan asked the housekeeper.

“Yes, because Miss has been out of town during this period of time, Old Master likes to carry his phone with him so that he can contact Miss conveniently.” the housekeeper replied.

“! Captain Qin! You mean…”

“That’s right. Let’s start with the phone.”

Qin Yuan smiled.

If the old man is in danger, then the phone is a very important tool for him to call for help.”

“In any case, we can get key clues through the phone. It’s either the old man’s location or clues about the suspect.”

Qin Yuan said.

Team Leader Jin arranged for the police officers to call the old man again.

This time, it showed that it was switched off.

“Go back to the police station immediately and investigate the GPS location of the old man’s phone number!”

Team Leader Jin immediately ordered.

The few of them returned to the police station swiftly.

He found the location of the old man’s phone number in the information security network system of the technical department.

It was located in a remote area in the suburbs, not far from the old man’s house. It was only a kilometer away.

Qin Yuan and Team Leader Jin rushed to the scene again.

As Qin Yuan had expected, the scene was an abandoned bridge in the countryside.

After a professional survey and everyone’s hard work, more than an hour later, everyone found the old man’s phone in the soil under the bridge.

From the looks of it, it seemed that the criminals had deliberately abandoned it here to prevent them from being tracked.

Everyone checked their surroundings again.

As expected, under everyone’s tireless efforts, they finally found an important clue!

A few meters away from the old man’s phone, he found an extinguished cigarette b.u.t.t!

The few of them were very surprised and immediately returned to the police station.

After investigation, it was confirmed that the cigarette b.u.t.t had been extinguished and thrown here about a day ago.

This time basically coincided with the time when the old man went missing!

Moreover, the DNA extracted from the cigarette b.u.t.t did not belong to the old man, but to an unknown person.

This meant that it was very likely the DNA of the criminal in this case!

In the in-depth investigation, there was an even more exciting new discovery!

The DNA on the cigarette b.u.t.t matched the DNA of a person with a criminal record in the police station’s DNA database!

This person was called Zhou Yang. He was 28 years old and was unemployed. However, what was puzzling was that he did not know the old man at all. They were just two people who had nothing to do with each other. No one could figure out his motive for committing the crime.

However, Team Leader Jin did not hesitate to immediately order the arrest overnight!

Soon, the armed police were dispatched and captured the suspect while the other party was still asleep!

Zhou Yang was crushed by the police car and brought back to the police station overnight.

When they arrived at the interrogation room, Zhou Yang vehemently denied the matter. He did not know Wei Wei or her grandfather.

However, when the police took out the evidence, Zhou Yang fell silent.

In the end, under the patient guidance of Qin Yuan and Team Leader Jin, Zhou Yang’s psychological defense completely collapsed and he told the truth.

It turned out that Zhou Yang was instructed by a mysterious person to use the safety of his daughter Wei Wei as an excuse to get the old man out of the house. Then, he kidnapped the old man and sent him to a designated location. After handing him over, he received the reward and went home.

“So it’s just a chess piece?”

Qin Yuan frowned when he heard this.

What kind of person would want to kidnap an old man who had no enmity with them? What was his motive?

Questions could not help but slowly rise in Qin Yuan’s heart..
