Deities Are All Just My Food-Chapter 2243 - 1001: Deduction Show!_4

Time will obliterate everything.

"That child might already be dead!"

Cai Yonghao sighed: "I used to think I could solve every case, but as I gained more experience, I became less naive."

"Some things are just beyond our control, you know?"

Cai Yonghao exuded a sense of resignation.

"Was the child last seen at the vegetable market?"

Gu Qingqiu inquired.

"Most likely!"

Cai Yonghao poured tea for everyone.

"Did you gather any information from the stall owners at the time?"

"Of course, that’s just standard procedure!"

Cai Yonghao answered every question: "But nobody knew anything!"

"A lot of kids come to the market every day. Who would notice a stranger?"

Xia Hongyao thought the task might have been miscategorized, labeling it simple when it should at least be rated three-star difficulty.

If this happened in modern times, with surveillance everywhere, it wouldn’t be such a headache.

"Can you bring those case files? I’d like to take a look!"

Gu Qingqiu kept offering money: "Of course, you won’t be working for free!"

"No problem!"

Cai Yonghao agreed without hesitation.

A missing child’s case file is no big secret. Relying on his connections, he can get it.

Plus, Cai Yonghao was in charge of the case, and he wrote most of the files. If it wasn’t for the time passed, he might even recall some details and recite them to Gu Qingqiu.

...

The next day at noon, at a café, everyone awaited Cai Yonghao’s arrival.

Cai Yonghao had just sat down when he took a file folder from his bag and handed it to Gu Qingqiu.

Swoosh!

A hand reached over beside him, grabbing onto the folder.

It’s Hoffman!

This guy appeared quietly and unnoticed, like a ghost.

"Damn it!"

Cai Yonghao was startled.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Baici grabbed Hoffman’s hand.

"I’ll look first!"

Hoffman’s expression was stern.

"No way!"

Lin Baici refused.

"What are you dreaming about?"

Xia Hongyao rolled up her sleeves: "Slave master, I’ve put up with you for long enough!"

The slave master glanced at Lin Baici and the two others, speaking indifferently: "Why don’t you all come at me together?"

The words were truly arrogant, angering Xia Hongyao.

"Will it be useful if you see it?"

Gu Qingqiu’s simple question, just six words, made Hoffman, who initially looked aloof, twitch his eyebrows a few times before releasing the folder.

Indeed,

If he couldn’t find the key point and still needed to depend on them, it would be embarrassing.

FUCK!

Once I get rid of that Ghost Ship God, I’m going to kill all these people. If this gets out, I’ll be completely disgraced.

Hoffman took the adjacent seat.

Gu Qingqiu opened the folder, took half, and handed the other half to Lin Baici.

There were some transcripts from the vegetable market stall owners inside.

Gu Qingqiu flipped through page by page.

"These things can’t be taken away!"

Cai Yonghao reminded.

Lin Baici went to the restroom, and upon returning, he had a camera in his hand and started taking photos of the files.

"You’ve got such a nifty gadget?"

The cowboy girl was surprised.

No electronic devices work in God’s ruins, so Lin Baici’s camera was clearly a taboo thing.

"You’ve got quite the resources!"

Jiang Ge envied.

This was what Lin Baici had asked Hua Yue Yu for before entering, just in case, but unexpectedly, it came in handy.

There were quite a few case files, and after Lin Baici and Gu Qingqiu carefully examined them, three hours had passed.

"Let’s head to the vegetable market!"

Gu Qingqiu paid the bill and left.

"FUCK!"

Hoffman had planned to review the files but heard these words instead.

Watching Lin Baici and his group leave, Hoffman hoped to take the files to read on the way.

"It’s best if you don’t take them, or don’t follow us!"

Gu Qingqiu warned.

"Fuck you!"

Hoffman cursed and gave up the files, following the group.

Having already made things clear, he was shameless and didn’t bother driving himself anymore. He directly got into the MPV.
