271 Yousre the Only One I Adore 4 (2/2)
”She hasn't been home in two months. She's been working in the city.”
”Which part of the city?” An Xiaoning asked.
”I'm not too sure about that, but she said she's getting paid a hefty amount to work as a servant for a wealthy family. Perhaps her father would know, let me ask him.” The middle-aged woman retreated backwards and welcomed them into the house. ”Please come in.”
The five of them followed her into the house.
”Hubby, where does Yingying work at in the city?”
”The Jin family.”

”Uncle, are you sure that it's the Jin family?”
”Yes, you guys are?” Liu Yingying's father confirmed.
”They are the Criminal Police. They're here to ask Yingying some questions. Please take a seat, I'll get Yingying's father to call her,” said Mrs. Liu.
”She really didn't break the law?” Mr. Liu asked apprehensively.
”Uncle, she really didn't. We just need her assistance in investigations,” An Xiaoning reassured upon noticing how worried Liu Yingying's parents were.
Mr. Liu whipped his phone out to give Liu Yingying a call, only to find that she had switched off her phone.
”I can't get through.”
An Xiaoning took a look at the information on her household register and asked, ”Auntie, at what time was Liu Yingying born?”
”At about seven or eight o'clock in the evening.”
”Was it on the 28th of September in the year XXXX?”
”No, it's the 18th of September,” Mrs. Liu corrected.
”But it says 28th on her household register.”
”That was a typo made by the staff at the Registry back then.”
”Auntie, are you sure that she was born on the 28th of September XXXX at seven or eight o'clock in the evening?” An Xiaoning murmured.
”Yes, I'm sure.”
An Xiaoning's body swayed all of a sudden. Noticing that something was amiss, Pan Zhenghui asked softly, ”Xiaoning, what's the matter?”
An Xiaoning shot him a glance and said to Liu Yingying's parents immediately, ”Thank you, Uncle and Auntie. We'll be taking our leave. Please give us your contact number.”
”Alright,” Mr. Liu agreed and provided Ma Jianguo with his contact number.
They then left the Liu family home in a single file. Once they got into the car, Ma Jianguo asked curiously, ”Team Leader, why do you want their contact number?”
”To contact them easily once we've found Liu Yingying's corpse, of course,” An Xiaoning said with a sigh.
The rest of them looked at each other in dismay. In disbelief of what he had just heard, Pan Zhenghui asked, ”Does that mean Liu Yingying is dead?”
”Yes, it's been more than ten days since she died. Seems like she was killed during the time I was detained. If only we found her on that very day the incident took place,” An Xiaoning lamented, feeling rather regretful.
After some thought and analysis, Pan Zhenghui answered, ”No, she would've already fled the moment she brought you to Old Madam's room. She must've been instigated by someone and killed after her job was done. The mastermind definitely wouldn't have allowed her to live. Even if we tried to look for her that day, it wouldn't have been easy to find her. But we didn't make a wasted trip this time, at least we know that she was indeed a servant at the Jin family's home. What's puzzling though is that the butler denied the existence of such a servant when we questioned him two weeks ago.”
”Show this photograph to the butler later. If he still denies it, then it seems there's a mole in the Jin family's household,” An Xiaoning instructed as she handed Ma Jianguo the portrait sketch.
”Got it.”
”Lend me your phone,” An Xiaoning said to Ma Jianguo.
”There you go.” Ma Jianguo whipped his mobile phone out and handed it to her.
An Xiaoning quickly dialed Jin Qingyan's mobile number and placed the mobile phone beside her ear.
After several seconds of a melodious dial tone came Jin Qingyan's hoarse voice, ”Who's speaking?”
”Qingyan, it's me.”
