Jiang Feng and Situ Yan walked out from the side door.
There was a secret passage here that led directly to Yu Fei's office.
At this moment, the office was naturally empty.
"It's all your fault! What do we do now? Yu Fei has become like that, even if we take him back, we can't get a statement from him anytime soon."
Situ Yan, just now starting to recover, had almost vomited her guts out earlier. She glared at Jiang Feng, not in the best of moods, and said.
"Evil people need to be handled by evil means; he brought it upon himself."
Jiang Feng looked unconcerned: "Let's search here and see if there's any other evidence."
After circling the office, Jiang Feng found a notebook.
Opening it up, the notebook recorded all the crimes committed by Yu Fei over the years.
Yu Fei was a pervert; each time he drugged and raped a woman, he meticulously recorded the entire process, as well as those women's identities and measurements.
He also noted the price the videos were sold for after being made, as well as the websites and distributors used for the transactions.
With this development, the case's truth became much clearer.
It turned out Yu Fei not only raped and drugged women, but he also made videos of those women being victimized, uploaded them online, and sold them to those XX websites for profit!
Situ Yan finished reading the notebook, gritting her teeth in anger.
At the same time, Jiang Feng turned on the computer and found those recorded videos stored on Yu Fei's private external hard drive.
There were more than a hundred of them!
One can only imagine how many women he had victimized by now!
"Yu Fei, that beast worse than an animal, not only rapes innocent women but also further harms them! He deserves to die a hundred times over!" Situ Yan said, boiling with rage.
"This trip wasn't in vain; this tumor has finally been removed. Go contact someone now."
With evidence and witnesses in hand, Jiang Feng believed that Yu Fei wouldn't have any good outcome once in the hands of the action department!
Grinding her teeth, Situ Yan immediately took out her phone and dialed the branch's number.
…
Before long, the sound of ringing filled the air.
A total of more than ten action department vehicles parked in front of the Nightmare Ghost Shadow's Ghost House.
This time, Mu Jianmin led the team personally!
Mu Jianmin only just found out about Situ Yan's undercover investigation into this extremely notorious serial rape case.
He was both angry and relieved about Situ Yan's actions.
Angry because Situ Yan was quite reckless, and if something had happened tonight, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
Relieved because, fortunately, Jiang Feng was by her side the whole time, letting her escape with no harm.
"You young lady, how many times have I told you? Investigations require strategy and method. Look at what you've pulled this time! If Mr. Jiang wasn't here, can you imagine the outcome? You, a young maiden, would have been finished here!"
Mu Jianmin looked around to ensure no one was near, then spoke to Situ Yan in an exasperated tone.
Knowing the whole process of tonight's events now, he felt deeply worried about what might have been.
Those rapists who showed no mercy would have likely not left a single piece of Situ Yan untouched!
"Mr. Mu, you also told me that we need to be flexible and adaptable in our investigations, not stick to the rules! I had to enter the tiger's den to catch Hu Zi!" Situ Yan pouted, deliberately putting on a brave front.
"Such nerve to say so!"
Mu Jianmin glared at her and then turned to Jiang Feng, "Mr. Jiang, thank you! We owe this success to you; there's no way Xiao Yan could have solved the case alone. I'll make sure she gets a big commendation, as for you..."
"Just pretend I was never here." Jiang Feng waved his hand, cutting him off directly.
"Ahem, alright, I understand," Mu Jianmin chuckled bitterly.
He's seen people who do good deeds without seeking recognition, but Jiang Feng repeatedly assisted the action department in making outstanding contributions without expecting any reward or acknowledgment—he was truly one of a kind.
Next, Situ Yan informed Mu Jianmin about the location of the underground chamber.
Mu Jianmin immediately sent people to apprehend the targets.
A large group of heavily armed action team members stormed into the Ghost House like a whirlwind clearing fallen leaves.
Soon enough, the mastermind, Yu Fei, was brought out.
He looked utterly exhausted, with a pallid complexion, hollow eyes, and a sheet wrapped around his lower body, barely covering his shame.
His exposed upper body was covered with fresh scratch marks and bite marks...
According to an action team member, they found this guy being pinned down and beaten by a rough man when they burst in.
Then came those over thirty rough men.
They had almost exhausted their energy venting it on Yu Fei; now they were staggering, each person walking wobbly.
Situ Yan spat, handing the notebook and external hard drive to Mu Jianmin as well.
Mu Jianmin immediately required that they work through the night and make the results of this case public by tomorrow, allowing victims and citizens to learn the truth and take it as a warning!
Situ Yan naturally had to return to the branch to handle the case.
As for Jiang Feng, whether or not to record a statement was optional, but he still decided to go back and have a look.
After all, he needed to personally ask Niu Tao if there had been any progress on the surveillance front.
...
Arriving at the South City Action Branch, Jiang Feng parted ways with Situ Yan and went directly to the surveillance room.
He saw Niu Tao still meticulously reviewing the footage and making notes with paper and pen.
When Niu Tao saw Jiang Feng enter, he stood up immediately, surprised, "Mr. Jiang, why are you here?"
"Any results yet?"
Jiang Feng patted Niu Tao's shoulder. He noticed that since noon, Niu Tao had likely not rested at all; his eyes were bloodshot, focused on helping with the task.
"I keep reviewing one particular video that looks suspicious, but I'm not sure about it yet and was considering whether to bring it to your attention," Niu Tao promptly replied.
"Which part?" Jiang Feng asked with a furrowed brow.
Niu Tao, without hesitation, pulled up a surveillance clip.
The surveillance indicated the footage was from the latter half of the previous night, around four in the morning.
A figure, somehow neither entering nor leaving Ruijing New City, appeared on a nearby street.
He wore a long robe quite unfitting for the season, appearing bloated and large, yet oddly, his movements were quite agile.
The surveillance caught his silhouette for only three seconds before he vanished silently.
"Mr. Jiang, this is the only suspicious footage. This person can be confirmed not to be Mr. Zhuge, but whether this is the culprit remains to be seen. He neither kidnapped Mr. Zhuge nor showed any other clues." Niu Tao said to Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng squinted, watching the clip closely, then rewound it for a detailed review.
Suddenly, he pointed at the screen, decisively, "Yes! This is the perpetrator!"
"What?"
Niu Tao was taken aback: "How can you be so sure?"
"He has Zhu Ge Yuheng hidden under his robe!" Jiang Feng said coldly, "He carried Zhu Ge Yuheng away!"
"Could... this be possible?" Niu Tao asked, puzzled, "Even if the robe is bigger than usual, it can't possibly fit two people..."
"If the suspect is a woman, with a slim and petite frame, it can be done!"
Jiang Feng, eyes narrowing with intense focus, "It's actually a female perpetrator. Is there any way to identify her?"
