“With the police officers here, I have nothing to be afraid of,” Mei Shu smiled and chatted with them along the way.

Both police officers liked Mei Shu’s cheerful personality, and they developed a slightly stronger affinity for the young girl. They also put extra effort into handling the case.

However, to everyone’s surprise, after the video had been sent to the forensic department for an hour, the message that came back was far from satisfactory.

The result was that there were no signs of forgery in the video.

This left the police captain deep in thought, and even the officers who had been joking with Mei Shu moments ago had their expressions change, their gazes taking on a hint of uncertainty.

“Boss, what’s going on? Is this video real?” Officer Xiao Liu asked, his eyes darting towards Mei Shu as he spoke. “Could it be that this girl was lying to us all along?”

The police captain pondered for a moment and said, “Our department’s technology isn’t advanced enough to detect all forms of facial swapping techniques. 1 think we should request higher-level expertise to reevaluate the video.”

“What?” Hearing that the captain wanted to escalate the situation, Officer Xiao Liu hesitated and pouted. “Is it necessary to make such a big fuss? Our department’s technology, while not cutting-edge, has never had any issues. If our colleagues from the forensic department find out about this, what will they think of us?”

Others shared similar concerns with Officer Xiao Liu.

They had originally thought Mei Shu was a good kid, but with this evaluation result, even they couldn’t help but have doubts.

If this girl really orchestrated this herself, her cunning was beyond measure!

She had even fooled experienced detectives like them!

The captain looked thoughtfully at Mei Shu and asked, “Do you know who you might have offended? Are there any individuals with hacking skills in your vicinity?”

There were, but Mei Shu couldn’t imagine that S and F would use such methods to frame her.

She smiled gently and shook her head, “I’m sorry, Uncle Policeman, but I can’t think of anyone who would resort to such despicable tactics to harm me.”

The captain was in a dilemma. Just then, the police officer he had sent to investigate Mei Shu’s recent activities hurriedly returned. He quickly approached the officer and asked, “How did it go?”

The officer ran out of breath, took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then said, panting, “Captain, I found out that Mei Shu disappeared for half an hour while she was on her way home from the Itai Club last night. The area had no surveillance cameras, so we couldn’t determine what she did during that time.”

“Disappeared?” The captain raised an eyebrow and asked, “What did the taxi driver say?”

The officer wiped away the sweat running down and said, “I’ve called the taxi company, and the driver will be here shortly.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a man in his thirties or forties was brought into the office by other officers.

The moment he saw the captain, his gaze involuntarily started shifting, as if he felt extremely guilty.

The captain exchanged a glance with the officer and instructed him to notify the others to come over. Then, the captain personally brought a chair and asked the driver to sit down. “Hello, we appreciate your cooperation in taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to the police station.”

The taxi driver waved his hand repeatedly. “Please don’t say that. Cooperating with the police is a civic duty.”

“It’s great that you understand that principle,” the captain said straightforwardly. “Did you pick up a young girl in the Morning Sun Alley yesterday evening?”

The taxi driver turned pale, and in the captain’s increasingly skeptical eyes, his hands trembled as he stammered, “Yes, there was a young girl.”

“Where was her destination? Did you encounter anything unusual during your trip?” The captain, sensing the driver’s unusual nervousness, momentarily put aside the issue and continued with the questioning.

The driver nervously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, “She, she wanted to go to the villa area in the south of the city, but my car was stopped and hijacked in Morning Sun Alley.”

“Hijacked? Did you encounter a robbery?” The captain immediately straightened up, his expression turning serious.

The driver, however, appeared even more flustered as he shook his head repeatedly. “No, it wasn’t a robbery. Those people seemed to be friends of the girl. They stopped the car, and she got out and left with them. They were chatting and laughing, and they told me to leave.”

After he finished speaking, he wiped the sweat off his forehead, which was now drenched.

The captain nodded thoughtfully and asked, “Do you remember any distinctive features of the people who stopped your car?”

The driver licked his chapped lips and said, “I, I remember one of them had bright yellow hair!”

“Is it this one?” The captain handed him a photo of one of the men taken from the video.

The driver immediately nodded and said, “Yes, that’s him! I remember him very clearly! He was hanging out with that girl yesterday, and I was worried something might happen, so I asked her if she wanted to report it to the police. But she said they were acquaintances, so I didn’t intervene.”

The captain took back the photo, and his face had turned ice-cold. “I’ve noted everything you’ve said. However, there’s something 1 want to make clear to you: giving false testimony to the police carries legal consequences..”
