  "It's that residential area over there." Qiu Bai pointed to the main gate of the small district on the east side, "To be strict, it can't even be considered a real residential area, and no building numbers have been assigned. I'm not quite sure which building Xiao Ke lives in either."

  "Thank you so much for troubling you for such a long time." Shen Yu smiled, "Now we only need to talk to Xiao Ke and that's it."

  "The police said so, we citizens must cooperate." Qiu Bai's face turned red with excitement, and he grasped Shen Yu's hand, shaking it vigorously.

  Shen Yu's smile was so gentle that it almost seemed to squeeze out water, scaring Liao Xin Xin who was used to seeing Shen Yu's poker face or even a cold expression all day, and making her whole body tremble.

  "Ms. Qiu is really a good citizen." Shen Yu said gently, while stroking Qiu Bai's tender white hands with his other hand that was not caught, "I represent the people's police to thank you."

  Liao Xinxin looked at Qiu Bai with a silly expression, her face red like a monkey's buttocks, and shook her head, "Oh, silly girl."

  "Is that okay, Captain? That little beauty is completely smitten with you." Yuan Fei said to Shen Yu after glancing back for a while.

  Shen glanced at Yuan Fei and said, "It doesn't matter, we've already gotten all the information we needed, no need to go again."

  What a bad man! Liao Xinxin secretly raised her middle finger behind him.

  Following the direction Qiu Bai pointed, I walked forward for about 500 meters and arrived at Xiao Ke's residential area. However, it can't be said to be a real residential area, as there is no gate or doorplate number. It's just a low-level residential district for low-income people, with several places marked with the word "demolish". I guess this area should have been planned by the government, but due to demolition and relocation issues, it has been delayed.

  "This area belongs to the city's slum, I suppose," said Yuan Fei. "However, this building is blocked by other buildings in front of it, so it doesn't affect the cityscape much. Otherwise, the government would have demolished it long ago."

  "Uh-huh." Shen Yu nodded, this residential area had been reported before, it was said that Yu's real estate company had taken a liking to this place, after all, it is very close to the city center and there are many high-end residences nearby, so if an entertainment center or large supermarket were built here, the returns should be good. However, due to the residents' dissatisfaction with the relocation conditions provided to them, conflicts arose, and until now, this place still looks like a slum.

  This residential area is either a fixed residence or a low-rent house, with many nearby university students and workers renting houses here, which are much cheaper than the dormitories provided by schools and units. Although the living conditions are not very good, the geographical location is excellent, shopping and travel are very convenient, and it is a good place to live.

  A few people's dressing and temperament were obviously out of place here, many people cast their eyes on the three, that kind of meaningful gaze made Liao Xinxin very uncomfortable.

  "Hopefully it's not another real estate company." someone said. "Look at what they're wearing, you can tell they have good taste in clothes."

  Liao Xin was silent. Having grown up in a privileged environment, she had never really understood poverty, but seeing the conditions here and the many migrant workers covered in dust and cement, smoking, with calloused hands, she suddenly felt a deep sense of shame. On one side were poor farmers and laborers who struggled to make ends meet despite their hard work, while on the other side were wealthy young doctors like herself who had never had to lift a finger.

  "Don't think so much." Yuan Fei put his hand on her shoulder, "We police officers are here to let them get rid of this life one day and maintain their interests. We can't change our origins, we just do our job well, as long as we have a clear conscience."

  Liao Xinxin nodded and clenched her fists, then let's work hard to end this case now.

  While the two people were talking at the entrance, Shen Yu had already walked to the other side, where several old men were playing cards on a small table.

  "Excuse me," Shen Yu said, "Do you know Xiao Ke?"

  "What's going on?" An old man with a head full of white hair rolled his eyes, "Who is it?"

  "It's her. We're classmates of hers. There are some things we need to find her about." Shen Yu took out his phone and found Xiao Ke's photo, "She lives around here, but there is no house number, and we can't find her."

  "That girl." An old man with one eye narrowed and peeked over, "She lives in the fourth floor of that building behind. You can go ask around and you'll know. There aren't many female students living here, you can ask anyone. But that girl is definitely not home now, she has to attend school and work."

  "We are worried about that too. Do you know where she works?" Shen Yu put away his phone, "We really have an urgent matter to find her."

  "This old man I really don't know, but the last time someone asked me about a community inside, was it called Shuxiangyuan? Oh my, I've been poor for most of my life, how would I know about that high-end community, not even the garbage collectors have gone in."

  "Shu Xiang Yuan." Shen Yu smiled, "Thank you so much, if you see Xiao Ke coming back, can you trouble yourself to tell her that we've been here?"

  He straightened up and turned to Yuan Fei and Liao Xinxin, saying, "Let's go."

  Liao Xinxin was puzzled, "Isn't it supposed to be looking for Xiao Ke? Now that we know where she lives, why aren't we going up?"

  "Those who should know already do, what's the point of going up? To catch an adulterer?" Shen Yu glanced at her, "There are still things that need to be done, don't waste time dawdling."

  "Hmm, okay..." Liao Xinxin scratched her head and had only taken a few steps when she suddenly thought of something, "Then why did you let that old man tell Xiao Ke that we came here? Now they know we're after her, what's the point of investigating?"

  "It's just to let her know," Shen Yu said. "We now have too little information about this case, what else do we know except that the body of Yu Chen is real? We can only make those who are not old hands in this case participate in our investigation and provide us with clues because of their panic. There's no other way, we don't have so much time to waste."

  "What shall we do now?" asked Liao Xinxin.

  "Go to Shuxiang Garden." Shen Yu replied, "Xiao Ke's inquiry about this community is not without reason, and it's absolutely impossible that it's for the so-called work. Instead, someone must have given her an order to do something in Shuxiang Garden Community. Therefore, there must be people living in this community who are related to the case."

  "I'll go check the surveillance footage," said Yuan Fei.

  "Hmm." Shen Yu turned his head to glance at Yuan Fei, "However, most of the surveillance cameras in Shu Xiang Garden are installed at the main gate and major street intersections. There aren't any near the buildings, so even if we check the security footage, it's impossible to narrow down the search to just a few specific buildings. We'll have to think of another way."

  Mira can't think of a title anymore... sweat... so she's been using the same title and adding small brackets nonstop... okay, although it's true that she's been setting up for "recording" all along~~~~ hehe, too lazy~~~
