Chapter 92: You’ve Revealed It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Ran was planning to get into the car swiftly.
But Mu Ying had appeared and was jogging towards her.
Qin Ran furrowed her brows.
“Cousin, what are you doing here? Is this your friend?” Mu Ying was speaking to Qin Ran, but she couldn’t help but direct her vision to the car instead.
The Lamborghini’s design was such that she wasn’t able to see the driver’s face. But she could see the pair of hands on the steering wheel—slender and beautiful.
She could tell that the driver wasn’t an old person.
Mu Ying tried to look further in.
“I’ve something on,” Qin Ran said succinctly. “I’ll go first.”
“But, Cousin...” Mu Ying didn’t want Qin Ran to leave just yet. She looked towards the sports car with much interest.
Cheng Juan casually said, “Qin Ran, it’s time to go.”
Qin Ran nodded at Mu Ying and then got into the car.
There was no way she could see the driver from her point of view, so she could only watch it as the car left.

Yun Cheng wasn’t big. If there wasn’t any traffic congestion, an hour was all it took to get from North to South.
Cheng Juan reached the destination in a while.
Lu Zhaoying and Hao Dui were waiting in the lounge.
“What’s going on here?” Cheng Juan asked when he entered.
Hao Dui and Lu Zhaoying saw Cheng Juan enter and hurriedly said, “Regarding Cheng Mu’s matters, Qian Dui suggested that we call the police and refused to say more. Young Master Lu and I are waiting for him to knock off now.”
Hao Dui was waiting for news about Cheng Mu as well.
After all, Hao Dui wasn’t a local Yun Cheng resident and he wasn’t able to intervene much here. But he knew that Cheng Mu’s disappearance couldn’t be that simple. There would not be a point in calling the police.
He was speaking when he saw Qin Ran enter discreetly behind Cheng Juan.
She was playing games on her cell phone, unwilling to interfere.
Qin Ran came in with Cheng Juan, and Hao Dui did not dare to tell her off in front of him.
He simply gave her a cold look.
“Hao Dui, someone sent you this.” There was a knock on the door before a man came in and handed Hao Dui an old jigsaw puzzle.
It was in a mess.
Qin Ran hadn’t played her game in days and she was waiting for it to refresh when she glanced at that old puzzle. It wasn’t anything complicated, it would probably be a picture of a pet dog when it was completed.
She looked away.
Hao Dui furrowed his brows. “Why would anyone give me this for no reason?”
Cheng Juan eyed the jigsaw puzzle and tilted his head. He asked Lu Zhaoying, “Is there any old factory here in Yun Cheng? One that manufactures plastic?”
“I’m not sure, I’ve to ask Uncle Jiang.” Lu Zhaoying took his cell phone out. “Master Juan, anything else you can decipher?”
Hao Dui knew that this was likely sent by the person who took Cheng Mu away and hurriedly passed it over to Cheng Juan.
Cheng Juan placed the puzzle on the table and pieced it together.
It wasn’t a complete set. There were missing pieces here and there.
Cheng Juan looked at it for a while.
Then, two people came into the lounge.
“May I know which one of you is Hao Dui?” The man who just entered looked about 40. His eyes were sharp and his clothes prim and proper.
Hao Dui had been looking for Qian Dui for days, but he refused to meet him.
Now that he’d appeared all of a sudden, Hao Dui did not even have the time to think of what he was doing here. He stepped forward. “I am.”
Lu Zhaoying stood beside Cheng Juan and whispered, “Qian Dui wasn’t intending to bother about us and asked us not to care about this matter. Why has he changed his mind now?”
After thinking for a while, Lu Zhaoying looked at Cheng Juan. “Master Juan, could he know you? ... No, that’s not right, he wouldn’t have heard of you.”
Lu Zhaoying couldn’t figure out the reason.
Cheng Juan simply looked at Qian Dui, as if in deep thought.
“157********, get the technology department to run a check on this number,” Cheng Juan said to Qian Dui. “It probably isn’t a postpaid card, but you can try tracing the communication route.”
Qian Dui nodded and got the young technical personnel to see to it.
“Then, I’ll need you to come up with a system. The person who handed Hao Dui the item is definitely in disguise, but you’d be able to find some clues. The camera at the entrance should’ve captured his face...” Cheng Juan went on instructing them.
Qian Dui quickly figured out that Cheng Juan was the leader amongst them. He took another look at him.
“Roughly how long will it take you to get these done?” Cheng Juan looked up at the technical personnel.
The technical personnel responded, “Half an hour.”
“There are four plastic factories in Yun Cheng. How long will it take you to find the precise locations?” Cheng Juan asked.
“I haven’t tried. Give me about 20 minutes.”
Hao Dui understood that this would probably give them Cheng Mu’s address. He looked at the young technical personnel anxiously.
Tension rose in the lounge.
That was when a female voice yelling “Victory!” came from Qin Ran’s cell phone, breaking the tension.
Hao Dui looked in her direction impatiently.
Qin Ran lowered the volume of her cell phone. When she looked up, she saw Hao Dui’s unpleasant expression directed at her.
Who would be playing games at a time like this?
“Miss, please don’t disturb the technical personnel!” Hao Dui warned Qin Ran in a mellow voice.
The technical personnel was about to track down the location.
But the location he found, in the end, was exactly where they were at.
Lu Zhaoying widened his eyes. “How could this be?”
“There’s too much interference.” The technical personnel sounded serious. “It would take about a day to get everything figured out from scratch.”
For such a huge project, a day was considered pretty fast.
“But your case 712 was really fast.” Hao Dui looked straight at Qian Dui and the technical personnel.
Qian Dui did not say a thing.
Qin Ran kept her phone and stood up.
Cheng Juan turned towards Qin Ran and handed the technical personnel’s laptop to her. He smiled and said, “For you.”
