Chapter 844: Insider Information

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon seeing the man break into a cold sweat, Gu Zi hurriedly clarified, “Sir, we’re not suspecting you. Your arrival is rather timely, providing us with a breakthrough in the case. We suspect that the child’s disappearance and the theft of your car are related, both incidents possibly involving Zhou Hua and her husband.”

Gu Zi had now fully regained her composure, her eyes sparkling with renewed vigor.

Based on this new lead, she began to speculate. Zhou Hua had recently lost her job, and her husband was without a source of income. It was likely that they harbored resentment towards Su Bing, who indirectly caused Zhou Hua’s job loss.

They might have conspired to harm someone, and since Su Bing was older and not an easy target, Zhou Hua had set her sights on Su Bing’s younger brother, Su Li.

Gu Zi occasionally read the newspaper and had come across reports of child abduction cases. The kidnappers typically stole a car before abducting a child, using the stolen vehicle to transport the child far away before abandoning it in the wilderness, leaving the police with no leads.

Information previously provided by Grandma Gao about Zhou Hua mentioned that Zhou Hua’s husband, Xie Chang, was a lazy man who relied on Zhou Hua’s professional convenience to gain control of a snack street outside the school.

He often flaunted this, and his daily interactions were mostly with unsavory characters. Therefore, the possibility of Xie Chang knowing child traffickers was quite high.

Assuming Zhou Hua simply wanted to take revenge on Su Bing, taking Su Li would have been enough. She wouldn’t have needed to take other children. However, she chose to take Gao Ming and Jiang Nuan, who were with Su Li.

This suggested that Zhou Hua and her husband were likely seeking both revenge and profit through the children, possibly in collaboration with a child trafficking gang.

Gu Zi approached her and said, “I will believe whatever you say. Please tell me everything you know. I will be eternally grateful.”

Gu Zi choked up a bit. He Li looked at her and said, “I was foolish before. After being fired and spending these days at home, I’ve come to realize a few things. I deserved to be fired. I, who lack a sense of equality, am not fit to be a teacher. There’s no need for gratitude. I’m here to atone and I hope I can help you.”

The police officer, growing impatient, interjected, “Miss He, now is not the time for such talk. Please tell us what you know.”

He Li said, “The day before yesterday, Zhou Hua came to me, venting her grievances and wanting to drag me into taking revenge on you. She said that since we had lost our jobs, we still needed to live. She had a way to take the Su family’s child out and sell him in another province. We could make a fortune. It was then that I realized what a dishonest person my colleague of many years was. All I felt at that moment was regret.

“I may have been misguided, but I have been an educator for several years. I thought Zhou Hua was just venting her frustrations. It wasn’t until today, when I heard everyone talking about the missing children, that I realized Zhou Hua was serious. I came here to make amends. All I know is that Zhou Hua and her accomplices plan to take the children north to sell them…”
