Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 958

This current interrogation with Wang was not the first one.

Chief Wu looked over to Jiang Mohan and concluded, “It seems like he really doesn’t have a clue.”

After all, Wang was a timid guy. If he did do anything, he would have confessed a long time ago after so much intimidation.

Nevertheless, the man assured Jiang Mohan, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure she does not get out of B City.” In the city, everyone’s real name would be recorded so long as one purchased any public transport ticket. This system worked in Chief Wu’s favor- he was already keeping track of all the relevant records to figure out Ling Wei’s whereabouts.

He even deployed people to go undercover at bus stations and train platforms.

Meanwhile, Jiang Mohan carried out his own deductions. Knowing that Ling Wei was \not originally from here had no relatives or friends here besides Nan Cheng, he speculated that there was no way she could leave the city. Instead, she was likely hiding in a corner somewhere.

He wanted to conduct his own search operations, but there was a problem- he had insufficient manpower. There was only Chief Wu he could try his luck with. He began slowly, “Well, Chief Wu, your subordinate lost the suspect. That means you take partial responsibility too.”

Chief Wu did not deny his charge. “Of course, I’ll see to his punishment and hold myself accountable for this mishap.”

“Actually, I’m not exactly blaming you. It’s just… I would like you to borrow me some manpower.”

“Oh? You have a clue as to where she is?”

Jiang Mohan replied, “They are merely speculations, though I would want to have them checked. Unfortunately, I don’t have many available men with me.”

Chief Wu pondered over the request. Borrowing men to Jiang Mohan would not be a clash of interest as they both shared a mutual interest in finding Ling Wei. But the real problem was that he had already exhausted his human resources substantially for the undercover missions. After much consideration, he agreed to lend him a maximum of three men.

Jiang Mohan nodded in acknowledgment. “Thank you, Chief Wu.”

Combining the manpower from Chief Wu and his own well-trained bodyguards, he was well-geared to conduct his own operations.

However, Chief Wu interjected with a caveat. “There’s something I want to make clear though- if you do find Ling Wei, you cannot take matters into your own hands. You must send her us, okay?” The man respected the law a lot. If Jiang Mohan acted on his own accord, he would be breaking the law- something that Chief Wu could not tolerate.

“Of course,” came the man’s reply.

But frankly, there were no guarantees. If Ling Wei refused to cooperate, there was no ensuring if she would make it back in one piece.

The discussion soon concluded and the two parties departed on their separate ways. Jiang Mohan went ahead to prepare for the search operations. Meanwhile, Captain Song sent Wang back into captivity, knowing that he could provide no more information about the runaway suspect.

While the hunters were gearing up, the hunted herself made her way to the city outskirts. It was a place where mainly foreigners resided in.

Though the district was crowded and messy, she had no other choice.
