Chapter 83: Picking Tang Tang Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After lunch, Fang Ya followed He Feng to pick up Tang Tang in the police car.
Tang Fu was afraid that Fang Ya would find Tang Tang, so he sent the child to a family in the mountains.
That place was a hundred kilometers away from the city, and it would take at least two to three hours to drive there.
Fang Ya sat in the car, her hands tightly clasped together.
He Feng sat in the passenger seat and looked at Fang ya through the rearview mirror. He knew how she was feeling.
“Don’t worry! Tang Tang is waiting for you there. We’ll be able to pick her up very soon!” He Feng advised.
Shao Xiang had originally wanted to follow them to pick up Tang Tang.
However, because the journey was quite far, Fang Ya was worried that Shao Xiangzhou would be exhausted from the journey, so she did not let her accompany him.
The car drove past the rugged roads in the mountain area, and Fang Ya’s heart also rose and fell.
As they drove all the way to the entrance of the village, Fang Ya saw a group of police officers standing outside a door from afar.
After the car was parked, Fang Ya hurriedly pushed the door open and staggered out of the car.
He Feng wanted to help Fang Ya up, but she pushed him away with one hand.
Fang Ya hurriedly ran to the door of the house where the police officers were gathered. She saw that Tang Tang was sitting in the arms of a policewoman in the courtyard, playing with a doll.
When Fang Ya saw Tang Tang, she immediately sobbed.
She called out in a trembling voice, “Tang Tang!”
When Tang Tang heard the voice, she turned her head and saw Fang Ya.
In the next moment, Tang Tang jumped out of the arms of the policewoman, threw away the doll, and rushed into Fang Ya’s arms while crying.
Fang Ya held Tang Tang in her arms, and the mother and daughter cried together.
He Feng and Li Tong arrived later. They were both very touched when they saw this scene.
The mother and daughter cried for a while before Fang Ya hugged Tang Tang and followed He Feng into the car.
He Feng looked at Tang Tang, who was already sleeping soundly in Fang Ya’s arms. “I’ll get Li Tong to send you back first. There are still some things that need to be taken care of here.”
Fang Ya nodded, her eyes filled with gratitude. “Thank you!”
He Feng looked at Fang Ya’s expression and was slightly moved. He hesitated for a moment before smiling slightly. “Let’s go back!”
Li Tong drove the car and brought Fang Ya and her daughter home.
He Feng arranged for the police to start interrogating the family.
Tang Fu had taken things for granted and had sent Tang Tang to stay here. Even if this family was an innocent family, they would have some connection with Tang Fu.
After all, no matter how much Tang Fu disliked Tang Tang, she was still his only child!
After interrogating the family, He Feng came up with two clues.
First, Tang Fu had given the family a sum of money, allowing them to purchase properties in the neighboring cities.
Secondly, Tang Fu promised them that he would temporarily take care of Tang Tang and give them a sum of money, later on, allowing them to live a good life here.
He Feng thought about it for a moment, then followed the clues given by the family and sent people to the neighboring cities to check on the situation of the two properties.
Although Tang Fu was a nouveau riche, his assets did not quite qualify him as rich and powerful.
Moreover, although he spent a lot of money, it was all in those places that could be seen, just to show off.
To be able to quietly purchase properties in other places was not something that Tang Fu could do.
Moreover, according to the family, the purchase price had already exceeded all of Tang Fu’s assets.
After He Feng finished assigning tasks, he returned to the police station and planned to comb through all the clues again.
He Feng had just returned to the police station when he received a call.
“Sir?” He Feng was a little surprised to find that his old leader would call him personally.
“He Feng, do you have time to come over today?” The old leader’s voice sounded from the phone.
He Feng hesitated for a moment and said, “Okay! I’ll come over tonight!”
After hanging up the phone, He Feng sorted out the information in his hands again and set off for the old leader’s home.
He Feng was both respectful and fearful of this old leader.
He was respectful of the person who had brought him into the industry and taught him countless skills.
He was afraid of the old leader’s upright and unyielding character, which often caused them to encounter bottlenecks in the process of handling cases.
The old leader’s hardened character of steel often terrified his opponents and also made many villains hold grudges against him.
It was also because of this that the old leader was transferred to the government after 30 years in the police force.
The higher-ups had simply said that it was a well-deserved promotion.
But on the other hand, it also deprived the old leader of his rights in the police force.
He remembered that before the old leader left, he once said to He Feng, “Don’t forget your original intention of joining the police force.”
He Feng would always remember this sentence and use this as his guiding principle to investigate every case to its end.
He Feng came to a dilapidated bungalow, looked at the narrow alley, and could not help but sigh.
The old leader has been honest all his life, and now he still lived in such a dilapidated place.
