The Forensic Doctor Better Than a Detective

Chapter 159: Low Probability Event


Inside the Minghao Clothing Factory, Chen He obtained the personal employment information of those two female employees.

Soon after, the two of them quickly drove away.

Now, they plan to head to one of the female employees, Zhang Hong's home.

30 minutes later, they arrived by car at a resettlement housing complex in Jiangcheng West District.

Li Yong said while driving, "This resettlement area's size is quite large."

Chen He looked around.

"This resettlement area was built after Jiangcheng developed the West District, housing a total of 50,000 people."

"No wonder the houses here are so densely packed."

Li Yong drove around the complex for a long time, taking several twists and turns, before finally arriving beneath Building 29.

Before getting out of the car, Chen He looked at Zhang Hong's home address again: Building 29, 10th floor, Unit 2.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

Two minutes later, a response came from inside.

"Who is it? Just a moment, I'll open the door shortly."

Soon.

An elderly person with white hair came to the entrance of the living room and opened the security door.

Seeing Chen He and Li Yong, the elderly person looked surprised.

He asked in confusion, "May I ask who you're looking for?"

Immediately, Chen He flashed his police officer badge.

"Hello, we are officers from the Jiangcheng Criminal Police Team."

"There is a case investigation that requires looking for Ms. Zhang Hong."

"Is she at home?"

The elderly person's face showed a hint of astonishment, and he quickly said, "My wife and son are working out of town."

"Working out of town?"

The elderly person nodded. "There's only me and my grandson at home."

As soon as he finished speaking, a little boy ran over from the living room with a toy.

"Grandma, is it dad and mom coming back?"

The elderly person's eyes were a bit moist.

She turned around and said, "It's two uncles. Your mom and dad will come back during the New Year."

Standing at the door, Chen He looked inside.

He saw many toys on the living room floor.

From the corner of his eye, Chen He noticed that there was only a pair of children's slippers at the entrance.

It's estimated that there are indeed only the two of them at home.

Chen He then asked, "May I ask when your wife and son left home?"

The elderly person replied, "After the New Year, they went to work out of town."

"Haven't they been back during this time?"

The elderly person shook his head, "They are working in a new city, and the journey is long, and the travel expenses are costly."

"So, they seldom come back; they mostly open videos and make phone calls at home."

Chen He nodded.

"May I ask for the phone numbers of your wife Zhang Hong and son? We want to inquire about a case."

The elderly person nodded, "Wait a moment, I will get the phone right away."

Then, the elderly person turned and walked into the bedroom to get the phone.

"My wife Zhang Hong's phone number is 135..."

"My son Li Yang's phone number is 177..."

Chen He immediately took out a notebook and wrote it down.

"Thank you!"

As the two were about to turn and leave, the little boy suddenly asked, "Uncle, when will my mom and dad come back to see me?"

Listening to the innocent voice made Chen He's heart throb suddenly.

He looked down carefully and found that this child was about the same age as his son.

Chen He squatted down, held the child's hand, and said, "Your parents are quite busy lately, but they will definitely come back to see you when they can, so you stay at home with grandma."

The child naively nodded, "Uncle, when you see my dad, you must tell him to come back early, and remember to buy me a drifting car."

"No problem! I will definitely pass on the message to him and ask him to get you a high-speed drifting car."

After leaving the resettlement area, the two drove to the next female employee, Li Yumei's home.

Inside the police car, Li Yong asked, "Mr. Chen, do you think Zhang Hong's mother-in-law was telling the truth?"

Chen He turned to look out the window; at that moment, the sun was bright, and the sky clear.

"I don't think they're lying."

"Even if the elderly person lied, the child probably wouldn't."

"At the time, we were standing at the door; they didn't know we were police."

"The matter of the two of them going to work out of town should be true."

After a brief pause, Chen He said, "Later, we can inquire via phone to see if they've been working over there continuously."

Li Yong said, "Alright! Mr. Chen, I will continue to follow up on this lead."

40 minutes later, the two drove to the community where Li Yumei resides.

According to the employment file address, they went straight to Building 5, 3rd Floor, Unit 1.

Chen He stood at the door and knocked.

"Knock! Knock! Knock!"

3 minutes later, the homeowner responded.

"Coming!"

As the security door opened, a woman with messy hair stood at the doorway.

Just one glance, and Chen He recognized her immediately.

The current appearance wasn't too different from the photo on the file card.

She was wearing pajamas and hadn't opened her eyes fully yet.

Chen He showed his police badge and said, "Hello, we are criminal police from Jiangcheng Police Team. We need to speak to you."

At this moment, her previously sleepy eyes suddenly opened much wider.

Not just her!

Anyone would probably have a racing heartbeat when suddenly visited by the police.

"Looking for me? What's the matter?"

Chen He peered into the room and asked, "Is it just you at home?"

"And my husband; he's off today."

"Alright! Let's talk inside; it might not be good to stand at the door."

Li Yumei peeked around and found the corridor empty.

Then she said, "Come in, but the place is a bit messy."
