Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1430 Hunting Crime + Fireworks 55

The person in charge also took the initiative to provide photo information. Lu Haizhou just took a look and pushed it to Xu Qin, and Xu Qin gave it directly to Shen Yi.

If there is anyone here who can use these photos more efficiently, it can only be Shen Yi.

Shen Yi looked through many photos of handicraft class assignments, and Min Xue's adoptive mother Min Shengmei mentioned that Min Xue was sweet-mouthed and deft, so he wanted to confirm further: "Are these all handicraft classes?"

The person in charge took a look and nodded in confirmation, "Yes. There is a place that does this kind of rope weaving craft in the town near us, so we also arranged related craft classes for the children. Firstly, it is a kind of entertainment and relaxation after class, and secondly, it is to let them learn a craft. After all, if they don't get into college when they grow up, they will have to face the society directly."

Shen Yi then asked: "Are all the kids here good at this?"

The person in charge shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "That's definitely not the case. No matter what kind of handicraft, to be considered good at it, it must be done by a child who is clever and deft."

"Lin Xue is a very smart and skillful person. Not only can she learn these things quickly, but she can also come up with more new ideas on her own. Her works can not only be sold for money, but after we show them to people who come to the welfare home, we can also attract more donations."

"So, we all like her very much. Whenever someone wants to adopt her, we will recommend her first."

Speaking of this, the person in charge was obviously a little depressed. "But, generally speaking, very few people are willing to adopt a child this old. Everyone prefers to adopt a younger one because they are afraid of being strangers."

"Later, Lin Xue was adopted by a divorced mother. After a while, a police officer came to inquire about Lin Xue's situation. You came again today. Did something happen to her?"

Xu Qin smiled and said, "We just want to understand the situation. Min Xue is Lin Xue's current name. She is also trying her best to help other people in need in Jiangbei City."

Lu Haizhou quickly echoed Xu Qin's words: "Yes, we just want to find out."

The person in charge was not someone who was so easily fooled. Although she was happy to hear that Lin Xue had grown up and did not forget to help others, but now that so many years had passed and two groups of police had come to investigate, it was obvious that Lin Xue had gotten into trouble. She was really worried, but she also understood how the police handled the case, and they would definitely not tell her anything.

So the person in charge took the initiative to say, "What else do you want to know? It sounds like something happened to Lin Xue. I hope she can return to normal life as soon as possible."

Lu Haizhou was not polite and pulled out a photo of Lei Yifei from his phone, asking the person in charge to identify him. "Then can you help me see if you know this person?"

The person in charge took just one look and confirmed, "This is the police officer who came to our place a few years ago and learned about Lin Xue's situation. He asked very detailed questions back then, and we did our best to provide them. We also checked with the police station where Lin Xue's household registration is located."

"This police officer was really responsible, so I was quite impressed."

On the way back, Lu Haizhou drove the car. Xu Qin sat in the passenger seat and talked to Shen Yi in the back through the rearview mirror: "I saw Min Xue's handicrafts. The style is obviously mature. It doesn't look like it can be explained by dexterity."

Lu Haizhou said, "The teacher also said that she learns quickly and gets the hang of things faster. Besides, handicrafts can not only please the teacher, but also help her make more friends faster. This can be considered a reward mechanism. Besides, where else can she go to learn?"

Shen Yi agreed with Xu Qin's words, "I agree with Xu Qin's point of view. Min Xue's handicrafts are obviously too mature. This is not something a novice can do casually. So I am more inclined to believe that she received relevant training and mastered this technology before coming to Tuyuan City Welfare Home. Therefore, Tuyuan City Welfare Home is very likely not the only welfare home she has stayed in."

Xu Qin immediately began to investigate the welfare homes around the registered residence provided by Lin Xue. "Since the Tuyuan City Welfare Home is not the only place Min Xue has stayed, then at least she must have stayed in a welfare home around her registered residence."

Shen Yi also gave the search keywords: "I saw two handicrafts in the album, one is rope weaving and the other is origami. So even if we can't find the welfare home near where Lin Xue is registered, we can still get a more accurate result by searching for welfare homes where these two handicrafts appear at the same time."

There are quite a few welfare homes in the province that offer both origami and rope weaving classes, but with the addition of the restriction that it is located near Lin Xue’s registered residence, there is only one such home.

But the person in charge here took over the welfare home at about the same time as Xu Qin started working, and had no idea about the situation several years ago, so she contacted the old director, "The old director will need some time to get here, so you three can just take a look around first."

The reception room focuses on displaying various origami works, including lifelike lily of the valley, tulips and peonies. If it weren't for the different sizes, who would believe that these lifelike flowers are origami works and not real flowers?

About ten minutes later, an obviously elderly man came in hurriedly. "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I'm retired and I don't come here every day..."

Lu Haizhou went up to him and said, "It's okay, it's okay. We came here rashly and disturbed you."

The old dean looked at Xu Qin and the other two, and his eyes became brighter when he saw Xu Qin in particular. He couldn't help but praise her, "What a smart and pretty girl! She's much prettier than those big stars when we were young!"

Xu Qin had heard many similar compliments and had already developed different ways of dealing with them. She immediately smiled and said, "It's all my parents' good genes. I just got lucky."

The old dean liked Xu Qin even more and couldn't help but hold her hand. At least she remembered that the three people in front of her were police officers and came here to do business. "You are all police officers. What do you want to ask me?"

Lu Haizhou quickly took out his cell phone and showed the old dean Min Xue's photo, "Do you know this person?"

The old dean took the phone and held it farther away, squinting his eyes to look at it, and soon recognized it, "Oh, isn't this Zhang Ting!"

"This child is sweet-mouthed, deft, and well-behaved. He often helps us take care of the younger sisters. He is very lovable."

Shen Yi had seen before that all the beautiful origami works here were signed by Zhang Ting, and couldn't help asking: "Are all these origami works here made by Zhang Ting?"

The old dean smiled and nodded, "Yes, she made them all. We have been reluctant to deal with them for so many years, so we have carefully kept them here and used them as handmade templates for the children who will come after us."

Xu Qin sighed secretly and asked the old dean, "Do you have a child named Lin Xue here? Maybe she has a good relationship with Zhang Ting."

The old dean thought about it carefully. Perhaps because she had a deep impression of Zhang Ting, she quickly remembered, "Yes, yes, we did have a child named Lin Xue here. She got along well with Zhang Ting, but she was several years younger than Zhang Ting."
