Chapter 98
When Cecilia called the police, she concealed her number. The police officer became immediately cautious upon hearing her words. “Juliana’s kidnapping is classified information. How did you know?”
“Because there were two fools in the Yancey family who came to tell me themselves,” Cecilia explained.
The police officer was speechless.
“You and Juliana don’t get along. Why did you call the police?” the police officer asked.
“Because I’m a responsible citizen and know someone is committing crimes. Of course, I had to call the police to get help for the victim,” Cecilia replied.
The police officer looked at Cecilia suspiciously.
Cecilia didn’t care how the police officer viewed her. She added, “If there’s no evidence that I kidnapped Juliana, please leave now. It’s late, and I need to rest.
The police officer didn’t leave and talked about Juliana’s previous injury in the ward.
Christopher chimed in, “She fell on broken glass herself. How can you blame us for that?”
The police thought, “There’s no evidence to prove who did it. He can say whatever he wants.”
The police officer had no evidence that Cecilia and
Christopher had done anything wrong. Since they wouldn’t cooperate, he couldn’t go any further and had no choice but to leave empty-handed.
As he was about to leave the ward, Cecilia called out to him.
“Wait, we can cooperate in solving the case,” she said.

For better strategizing, it was crucial to understand Juliana’s
actions.
“Cooperate? How are you going to cooperate?” the police asked. Cecilia raised her chin in Christopher’s direction and said, “Mr. Forte has excellent hacking skills. He can help you locate people.”
Christopher’s knowledge of hackers was no secret.
The police station had applied the facial recognition system and electronic tracking system he developed.
However, the decision to help find Juliana wasn’t up to the visiting police.
He sought approval from his superior.
Soon, his superior agreed.
Subsequently, Christopher and Cecilia learned about the video of Juliana and the transaction in the early morning. They also obtained the virtual network number used to contact Gordon.
After the police officer left, Cecilia chuckled disdainfully. “Juliana hasn’t grown one bit, using the same old tricks for this kidnapping as before.”
It was just that Juliana played her part even more convincingly. In her previous kidnapping, the kidnappers had only used words to harass her without any physical harm.
Christopher tapped his index finger lightly and said slowly, “Since Juliana wants to act, let’s make it happen!”
If Juliana wanted to pretend to be S**ually assaulted, he would let her be S**ually assaulted.
Cecilia naturally would not sympathize with the person who hurt her, so she tacitly agreed with Christopher.
She asked, “Is it possible to track any leads based on the virtual network number?”
“It’s a bit tricky, but as long as the kidnapper wants the ransom, I can find Juliana based on clues.
Once he finished speaking, Christopher started monitoring Gordon’s phone.
When he finished, he got a call from Matthias.
He seemed to have found the person on the composite drawing.
Christopher answered the phone and turned on his speaker. Matthias’ voice sounded, “Christopher, I’ve found more than ten people who are 90% similar to the one on the drawing, but none of them match after checking their identity information. Either Jackson lied, or this person is a stateless person.”
Christopher checked with the nurse and the bodyguard. Nothing wrong with the drawing.
In other words, the identity information of the blond-haired man was not in the public security system.
“Matthias, you can leave it to me. I’ll personally handle the investigation from now on,” Christopher said.
“Sure, just let me know if you find anything,” Matthias said.
When Matthias was about to hang up the phone, he suddenly remembered something.
“By the way, the person behind this morning’s incident was also a man with blond hair, but it’s hard to tell if it’s the same person.”
“I see. When I’m discharged, I’ll take you to dinner,” Christopher said.
“Okay.”
After the call ended, Christopher looked at Cecilia and asked, “What do you think?”
“When there are too many coincidences, it’s intentional. It must be the same man,” Cecilia replied.

“We’ll know once we find him,” Christopher concluded.
Just as Christopher was about to investigate the case, Cecilia stepped forward and closed his computer.
“You are seriously injured and need more rest. Go to bed first. You may be busy at midnight.”
With that, she took the computer and put it on the coffee table, out of his reach.
Christopher saw through Cecilia’s intentions and said gently, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”
He then pulled Cecilia to the bed with him.
When Cecilia tried to resist, he deliberately let out a soft sigh. Cecilia was speechless.
She deliberately kept her distance and didn’t touch him at all!
“His act is way too fake!” she thought.
But Cecilia didn’t expose the act and stopped resisting, considering he got hurt because of her.
Eventually, Cecilia was held in Christopher’s arms, but she wasn’t sleepy at all.
She wondered, ‘Why can’t I find the identity information of the blond-haired man?
In this society, one will be in a difficult situation without an ID card.
Stateless persons exist but are typically found in remote and isolated mountains.
Under what circumstances can a person live in the city without identity information?”
Soon, she thought of it.
“Either the blond-haired man has used a fake ID card or has done plastic surgery but doesn’t change his ID card.”
With that in mind, Cecilia planned to begin her search for
sources of false identification.
Before she could reach for the phone on the nightstand, Christopher grabbed her hand.
“Do not move. Rest,” he commanded.
“But I can’t sleep. You go to sleep first,” Cecilia said.
Christopher sensed that Cecilia didn’t want to sleep, so he didn’t insist and let go of her hand.
“Don’t stay up too late. Rest if you’re tired. There might be a good show in the middle of the night,” Christopher said. “Okay, Can I use your computer?” Cecilia asked.
She came straight from the racing track to the hospital without bringing anything.
There were many confidential documents on Christopher’s computer.
But he agreed without hesitation, “Go ahead. I have no secrets from you.”
Cecilia got up, covered him with a blanket, and sat on the couch with her legs crossed.
She turned on Christopher’s computer and saw it required a startup password. She asked, “What’s the password?”
“It’s the lowercase initials of our names, plus the day we first met,” Christopher replied.
Cecilia was stunned for a moment. She hadn’t expected the password to be this.
“Was it the day of my first blood donation to Juliana?”
Christopher suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Cecilia. “No.”
He had thought it was that day, but after knowing that Cecilia had been with the Peacekeeping Forces, he knew it wasn’t.
Cecilia was surprised and asked, “Which day, then?”
The Ta Tady Strikes Back
Before coming to Quilton, she had no contact with Christopher. They couldn’t have met.
Christopher implied, “Five years ago, on the day you joined Peacekeeping Forces, a retiring instructor spoke to the newcomers.”
He was the instructor.
Cecilia’s surprise was evident on her face, and for a moment,

she didn’t know what to say.
