Crime Hunt Files: Bloody Angel

"real or fake?!"

Bai Jianan made a "are you serious?" expression and turned away, leaving Nie Kaiyu standing there alone with his eyes wide open.

He hurried to catch up, passed Bai Ji'an, and went directly to He Wei, whispering: "Your partner is really stingy."

He Wei, who was busy debugging the machine, looked at him in confusion: "What?"

"Ignore him." Bai Ji'an came up, "What's going on?"

He Wei handed him the telescope and said, "Try it."

Bai Ji'an held the telescope in front of his eyes and looked towards the direction of the spice factory. He heard the admiring voices of Nie Kaiyu and Kuriyama Ryo.

"Amazing." Nie Kaiyu stared at the high-definition image of the spice factory compound on the computer screen.

He thought Bai Jian’an’s things would be very useful, but he didn’t expect them to be so powerful.

Although they were at a high place, the straight-line distance from the spice factory was at least 3 kilometers.

Bai Ji'an held the telescope and looked around. After a while, a young woman walked out from the platform on the third floor of the office.

She had a small bamboo basket on her arm and was looking up.

As if it had received a call, the gray forest owl that had stayed on the roof all night flapped its wings, circled excitedly over the courtyard, and then landed steadily and accurately on the railing in front of the woman.

The woman reached into the bamboo basket, picked out the red meat with a tongs, and fed it to the hard-working gray forest owl mouthful by mouthful.

"Could she be the owner of the Tawny Owl?"

Bai Ji'an watched the woman's every move intently.

The woman walked out from the third-floor balcony and the gray forest owl came in front of her. She was serious the whole time. Even when she was feeding it, her expression and movements were calm.

It was obvious that she had no feelings for the owl.

Bai Ji'an shook his head: "She is just responsible for feeding."

In fifteen minutes, the woman had eaten up all the red meat in the bamboo basket.

She first showed the empty interior of the bamboo basket to the gray forest owl, and then turned back carrying the bamboo basket and the iron clamp.

At the same time, the gray forest owl flapped its wings and left the spice factory compound.

"Finally gone!"

He stared at the bird for half the night until his eyes were dry.

Kuriyama Ryo excitedly took out the tablet, Nie Kaiyu hurried over, and the two automatically formed a tracking team.

He Wei held a notebook and formed an infiltration team with Bai Jianan.

The next hour passed without any change, as if the Creator had pressed the slow-down button.

The gray forest owl flew all the way to the surrounding forest area to rest. As for the factory compound, it was just dawn and it was not time to go to work yet.

He Wei placed his notebook on his computer bag, walked to Bai Jian'an, and took his binoculars.

"Take a break, I'll come."

Bai Ji'an looked at his sparkling eyes and said strangely, "You never seem to get tired."

"It's only been an hour, how could I be tired?"

He has even squatted there for more than ten hours without moving.

At 7 o'clock in the morning, the main road of Yuyuan New District was crowded with traffic. Some office workers were carrying breakfast and frantically looking at their watches to rush; others were staring at their mobile phones, trying to get a moment of peace before officially stepping into the office.

He Wei and Bai Jian stared at the gate of the spice factory.

There were people and vehicles moving around in front of almost all the factories, but the target location was quiet, as if it was a holiday.

"Don't they work normal hours?"

He Wei shook his head: "But they don't have work at night."

As he finished speaking, a red Mazda SUV turned from the main road into the gate of the spice factory.

The gate opened immediately after recognizing the license plate number. Bai Ji'an took the opportunity to write down the license plate. Then, he followed He Wei's gaze and waited without blinking for the driver to get off the car.

After entering the door, the red car turned into the empty parking lot. After a while, a man in his thirties wearing a cream-colored POLO shirt got out from the driver's seat.

He slammed the car door, turned around to greet the old man at the security booth, and walked straight to the office building.

Another half hour passed.

Apart from the man driving the red Mazda, the woman feeding the gray owl, the old man working the night shift at the security booth and leaving get off work early in the morning, there was no one else in the seasoning factory.

He Wei put down the telescope and decided to adjust the angle. He walked to the other end of the platform and tried to observe inside through the glass above the factory.

Bai Jianan picked up the computer and followed He Wei until they found a piece of non-reflective glass.

He Wei said softly, "Stop."

Bai Jianan stared at the incredible scene on the screen and widened his eyes slightly.

Inside the two factory buildings, around the production machines, workers wearing white work clothes, hats and masks stood scattered around.

Howe put down the telescope in surprise.

"Did you see it?"

Bai Jian nodded, making sure he was not dazzled.

There had been no one going to work from the beginning, and there was no one in the factory compound, but the factory building that produced goods was operating normally!

What's going on with these people?

Clearly last night, there were only machines and goods in the factory.

How did they appear out of nowhere?

He Wei frowned, and turned to meet Bai Ji'an's eyes: "Underground."

Apart from the fact that there was a hidden world under the factory, they could not think of any other possibility.

For a whole day, Bai Ji'an and He Wei took turns using binoculars to monitor every move in the factory.

The factory stopped operating until the evening.

Bai Ji'an saved the video of the whole day's surveillance. He stared at the empty courtyard on the screen and murmured, "In one day, except for the man who drove up in the morning, no one appeared in the courtyard."

There are people in the office building and in the two factory buildings.

As a result, no one appeared from the yard all day, not even from the factory building on the east side to the factory building on the west side.

Not even a mouse.

He Wei handed the telescope to Bai Jianan, then he sent the license plate number of the red Mazda SUV and a full-body screenshot of the owner's front face to Fei Chen, asking him to check the relevant information.

"Howie!"

He Wei looked up at the screen and saw the POLO man coming out of the factory.

He directed the three young men behind him to move thirteen boxes of spicy beef oil hotpot base to the front of the door. Then, he walked to the opposite side and called out three employees, both men and women, to move out ten boxes of special seasonings for the spicy hotpot restaurant.

Whether in the east or west factory building, although the three employees were involved in the moving, they never even stepped out of the factory building.

They were only responsible for moving things to the door, keeping their heads down the whole time, doing whatever the POLO man told them to do, and then returning obediently after finishing.

There are twenty-three boxes of seasonings in total, and each box contains a large amount.

Judging from the way the POLO man just gave orders, it was impossible for him to move the goods by himself.

A flash of inspiration came to Bai Ji'an, and he turned around and called Kuriyama Ryo.

He handed them the telescope and told him to continue observing everything in the courtyard until he could contact them again.

"Where are you going?"
