S.C.I.谜案集 (Special Criminal Investigation) Book 2

Case 4. Love Murderer: Chapter 16. Chip

"Why did the emblem of an ancient European family appear in such a place and after so many years?" Luo Tian asked.

"There's more." Ma Han also nodded. "Why did Zhang Miaomiao have this pendant and was attacked?"

"The weirdest thing is why Zhang Ying and Zhang Miaomiao look the same." Bai Yutang sighed.

"That's right." Zhan Zhao suddenly took out his cell phone in his pocket, flicked through the list of incoming calls, and found the number that Zhang Ying called him on that night.

Bai Yutang asked, "didn't Jiang Ping check it and said that the number could not be tracked outside the network?"

Zhan Zhao picked up his cell phone and said, "maybe, let's try it." With that, he dialled the number.

After a short silence, a beeping sound appeared.

Zhan Zhao pressed the speaker button, as everyone suddenly looked at each other. They were so surprised that they could not speak.

After ringing a few times, someone on the other end of the phone picked up and said, "Dr. Zhan?"

Zhan Zhao was stunned for a moment, then heard Zhang Ying's chuckle from the other end and asked, "what's the matter? Is there something you want to ask me?"

"Um..." Before Zhan Zhao spoke, he heard Bai Yutang ask, "do you know Zhang Miaomiao?"

Zhang Ying on the other end was stunned. After a long pause, she said, "you guys are pretty fast, no wonder you're the best of the best."

"Do you know her?" Zhan Zhao asked.

"Have you been to the village?" Zhang Ying asked back.

"Yes, we just got back." Zhan Zhao said. "We also looked at those two graves."

Zhang Ying sighed gently and asked, "how is mother?"

After Zhan Zhao answered that the granny was doing well, he became shocked. He looked at Bai Yutang, wondering why Zhang Ying called the granny 'mother'.

Zhang Ying was silent for a moment and then said, "please take care of her for Ah Tian and me."

"You are..." Zhan Zhao frowned, "are you Zhang Miaomiao?"

Zhang Ying asked with a smile, "what's wrong? You've seen the photo. Do you still have doubts?"

"You don't look like someone in their fifties." Bai Yutang said.

"It's because I take good care of myself." Zhang Ying joked.

"Why aren't you old?" Zhan Zhao asked, "and is Xu Tian really dead? Who on earth attacked you that night?"

After listening to Zhan Zhao's questions, Zhang Ying said, "if you want to know, do you remember the list I gave you? Help me take revenge and then... I'll tell you everything!" Then she hung up the phone.

Zhan Zhao called the number again, however this time it could not be found.

"Whoa..." After putting down the phone, everyone looked at each other. Luo Tian concentrated on driving, while Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang both frowned.

That was too weird.

When it became dark outside, Zhan Zhao and the others returned to SCI. As expected, everyone was there and ordered takeout. Zhan Zhao's group that went to the village was starving. When they saw food they liked, they stuffed it into their mouths. Zhan Zhao chewed and asked, "Jiang Ping, what's in the chip?"

Jiang Ping turned on the computer and asked Zhan Zhao, "do you want to watch while you eat, or wait until you have finished? It might affect your appetite!"
