“They have all been briefed in advance. I couldn’t get any valuable information from them.” Feng Jing took out his phone and dialed Ji Yu’s number.

“Xiaoji, go to the hospital and pull out Zhao Wu’s records for the past few days. Try your best to find out who he has been in close contact with.”

Seeing that Feng Jing had ended the call, Yin Tao asked, “Brother Feng, do you think the person who instructed Zhao Wu will go to the hospital to see him?”

“Even if it’s not to visit him, they would think of a way to deal with the aftermath of this matter. They probably didn’t expect Liang Yi to appear. If it were me, I would also immediately think of a way to ensure that this matter won’t be traced back to me.”

Yin Tao nodded her head and felt that Feng Jing’s words made sense. “But only Liang Yi knows what happened.”

Yin Tao wasn’t confident that Liang Yi would tell the police the truth. Although he had helped her this time, Yin Tao didn’t dare to treat him as a good person. After all, Liang Yi had an unclear relationship with the black market.

“So, we should find time to thank him.” Feng Jing also planned to meet Liang Yi. There were many suspicious points about this person. Feng Jing could feel his hostility towards him.

“Then let’s do it tonight. I had planned to visit Cheng Fei and Cheng Yao before I went on leave. After all, they’ve invited me many times.” Liang Yi was actually the reason why Yin Tao didn’t go to Cheng Fei’s house.

Yin Tao was worried that her visit would make Liang Yi suspicious, but now that Liang Yi already knew Feng Jing’s identity, she had nothing to worry about.

“Alright, set a time with them first. We’ll go over directly later.” Feng Jing was very curious about Liang Yi. If he could get some clues from him, it would definitely be more valuable than any other clues.

Yin Tao quickly arranged a time with Cheng Fei. After Cheng Fei received Yin Tao’s call, he was very surprised and happy that Yin Tao could come to his house as a guest.

In order to investigate better, Yin Tao even specially asked Liang Yi if he would be home tonight and said that she wanted to thank Liang Yi for his help.

When Cheng Fei heard that Yin Tao wanted to thank Liang Yi, he was obviously a little hesitant. However, he remembered that Liang Yi had helped a lot before, so he agreed.

Yin Tao even took the initiative to go to school to pick Cheng Yao up for dinner. Although Cheng Fei politely said that Cheng Yao could take the car home herself, he was still very happy to hear that Yin Tao was willing to pick Cheng Yao up. After all, Cheng Yao had always liked Yin Tao, and Cheng Fei was also keen for them to spend more time together.

After agreeing on a time, Feng Jin took Yin Tao to pick Cheng Yao from her school.

Cheng Fei had already told his sister that Yin Tao would pick her up that night. Cheng Yao had also applied for leave from the teacher. Soon, Yin Tao saw Cheng Yao running out of the school gate.

“Sister Xiaotao!” Cheng Yao saw Yin Tao beside the jeep and hugged her. “We haven’t seen each other for a long time!”

“You’re a high school student. You don’t have much time to begin with. You’ll be fine after you get into university.” Yin Tao patted Cheng Yao’s shoulder affectionately. She felt that this little girl seemed to have grown taller and more beautiful than before.

“My brother always says the same thing.” Cheng Yao scratched her head and complained to Yin Tao, “The schedule in high school is especially tight. If you hadn’t picked me up today, I would have to finish my evening self-study before returning to the dormitory.”

“Get in the car. Your brother has already prepared the food and is waiting for us to go back.” Yin Tao felt that Cheng Yao looked a little different from before, but she couldn’t say exactly how. She felt that this child seemed to have become much more mature.

“Hello, Brother.” Cheng Yao greeted Feng Jing politely when she saw him in the car. Then, she pulled Yin Tao to the back seat.

Along the way, Cheng Yao chattered non-stop with Yin Tao about interesting things in school. Cheng Yao had indeed changed a lot. The only thing that remained unchanged was that she still liked to draw.

“Are you really planning to enroll in the police academy?” Yin Tao was a little surprised to hear that Cheng Yao wanted to enroll in the police academy. The little girl in front of her looked very delicate. Yin Tao really couldn’t imagine her image as a police officer.

“Really, I’ve already thought about it. I want to be a police officer. I also want to protect my brother.”

Yin Tao looked at the determined Cheng Yao, not knowing whether to encourage her or persuade her to consider it carefully.

“Being a police officer is a good idea. But you have to be prepared. Police work isn’t that easy.”

Feng Jing looked at Yin Tao and Chen Yao in the rearview mirror and said to Chen Yao calmly, “As long as you can persevere, you will definitely be able to protect your brother in the future..”
