Chapter 423 You Must Give the Children Justice
He knew that in this city, the police could not have been unaware of the obvious sight of child beggars on the busy streets.
There must be some hidden secret here, but the director just doesn't want to say it.
Qi Tongwei saw his panic and had already made some judgments in his mind.
He reached out and gently patted the director's shoulder. The action seemed casual, but it seemed to give the director a reassurance.
Qi Tongwei said, "I'm not blaming you for not reporting it. I'm just wondering if someone is interfering. Could someone know about this but deliberately kept it from you? As a director, you certainly can't be comprehensive."
His voice was calm and steady, without any hint of blame, as if he was discussing an ordinary issue with the director.
When the director heard Qi Tongwei's words, it was like he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
A trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, and he quickly said, "Chief Qi is right. I will investigate this matter thoroughly after I return today and promise to give Chief Qi an explanation."
As he spoke, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his hand.
The cold sweat kept coming out, just like the tension in his heart that he couldn't suppress.
Qi Tongwei frowned slightly. He noticed the cold sweat on the director's forehead and understood that the director must be hiding something from him.
However, he didn't want to push the matter too much now. After all, his main goal was to solve the problem of child trafficking, not to make things difficult for the director.
So he spoke again: "You are not giving me an explanation, but giving an explanation to those abducted children."
His voice became serious, and every word seemed to hit the director's heart hard.
The director nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, yes, Commander Qi, you are right. I will definitely investigate this matter as soon as possible and give those children justice."
His voice was full of determination, but his slightly trembling hands still revealed his inner anxiety.
Qi Tongwei looked at the director and said nothing more.
He turned and walked towards the two abducted boys. He knew that what these two children needed most now was care and attention.
The director stood there, looking at Qi Tongwei's back, feeling mixed emotions.
He knew that he had to do something to remedy the situation.
Otherwise, once Qi Tongwei discovered the truth, his position as director would be in jeopardy.
He secretly made up his mind that he must investigate the matter thoroughly after returning today. No matter what forces were blocking him, he would get to the bottom of the matter.
After Qi Tongwei left, he went directly to the so-called base according to the location given by the human traffickers.
It was a factory with an air of decay. From a distance, it looked like an old giant beast crawling there.
The outermost wall of the factory has been weathered, and the wall paint is falling off intermittently like seriously ill skin.
In some places, the bricks inside are exposed, and the bricks are no longer their original color, but have been eroded by time and become mottled.
Outside the wall, the protective net set up to prevent passers-by from being injured is particularly eye-catching.
The protective net was woven from thick iron wires, which were slightly rusty, like traces left by time.
The mesh of the protective net is neither too big nor too small, just enough to block people's sight and prevent them from easily peeking into the situation inside the factory.
It acts like a natural barrier, isolating the factory from the outside world.
The protective net was surrounded by weeds, which looked like a group of soldiers growing wildly, and some had even grown to the height of the protective net.
They swayed in the wind, making rustling sounds, as if telling the desolation of this place.
The factory gate was closed tightly. The gate was dilapidated and the paint on the door had peeled off in large pieces, revealing the rusty iron inside.
There is a big lock hanging on the gate. The lock looks quite old and is covered with dust and rust, as if silently announcing that this place has been forgotten for a long time.
Qi Tongwei stood outside the factory, looking through the gaps in the protective net, trying to see what was happening inside.
He took a deep breath and prepared to find a way to enter this mysterious base.
Qi Tongwei hid in the dark quietly, his figure seemed to blend into the surrounding darkness without any flaws.
His eyes were like sharp eagle eyes, closely watching the situation inside the factory.
It was seven o'clock in the evening and the sky was gradually getting dark. The dim light added a touch of eerie color to the abandoned factory.
When the beggars finished their "work" for the day, the factory's scheduled pick-up and drop-off vehicles all came out at once.
The roar of the engine broke the original silence and drove towards the factory gate impatiently.
The car lights came on, and the dazzling light crisscrossed in the darkness, illuminating the messy scene inside the factory.
Qi Tongwei's eyes quickly scanned the vehicles. His eyes were calm and focused, and he did not miss any details.
He only took a quick glance, and the license plate number seemed to be imprinted in his mind.
He quickly took out his computer from his bag and turned it on skillfully.
The blue light from the computer screen seemed a bit dazzling in the darkness.
He opened a software specifically for tracking, and his fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, entering the license plate numbers one by one accurately.
Every time a license plate number is entered, the software will emit a slight prompt sound, as if responding to Qi Tongwei's operation.
As the license plate number was entered, the software started working quickly.
Small flashing dots appeared on the screen, representing the locations of those vehicles.
Qi Tongwei's eyes were fixed on the screen, his brows slightly furrowed, and his eyes were full of concentration.
He knew that the place these vehicles were going to was most likely the beggars' regular begging spot.
He set some parameters in the software to better track the whereabouts of these vehicles.
He not only needs to know the current location of these vehicles, but also predict their next routes.
His fingers slid nimbly across the touchpad, adjusting the scale of the map so that he could see more comprehensive information.
With the help of computer tracking, the driving trajectories of those vehicles gradually became clear.
Qi Tongwei looked at the route map on the screen and already had a plan for the next step in his mind.
He had to arrive at his destination before these vehicles did, and then wait there to see if he could find any new clues.
He gently closed the computer and turned his gaze back to the factory.
Qi Tongwei carefully sneaked into the factory again.
His figure moved back and forth in the shadows of the factory, his eyes vigilantly observing the movements around him.
