After the two finished tidying upstairs and came downstairs, Uncle Zhong came to call them for dinner.

Zhao Tong, carrying the person, walked to the dining table with a smile. Upon seeing the salt and pepper shrimp on the table, he said with delight, "Uncle Zhong, you really do care about me. You know I love this kind of food."

Uncle Zhong smiled and said, "Then eat quickly, I'll go get you some food."

Zhao Tong placed the child in the high chair at the dining table. "Come on, baby, Daddy's going to feed you!"

Shen Ji: "..."

He chuckled and said, "That old man Shen Jiyuan hates it the most when I have a secret father. You better watch out, kid."

Zhao Tong chuckled, "Which other 'wild father' did you find?"

"My dog, the one in the yard."

"..."

Zhao Tong's lips twitched. "Fine, I'm going to be a son anyway, it doesn't matter whether I'm a dog or a human."

"From now on, you can call me 'Dad' too, so I can experience the feeling of being surrounded by my children and grandchildren, how about that?"

Shen Ji glanced at him sideways, "Is your penis damaged and you can't have children anymore?"

Zhao Tong: "..."

He almost spat out the mouthful of soup he had just taken a sip of.

With a twitching smile, he looked at Shen Ji and said, "Damn, who taught you all this?"

Before Shen Ji could speak, Zhao Tong's phone rang.

Zhao Tong put down his soup bowl, took out his phone, and saw it was a call from Mo Yang in the team. He pressed the answer button, "Feed?"

"Captain, something's happened!" the person on the phone said anxiously.

Zhao Tong's eyes sharpened. "What's wrong?"

Mo Yang said in a deep voice, "Wei Tian is dead."

Zhao Tong paused, his brows furrowing involuntarily. "Dead? Where?"

Mo Yang said, "The old factory of Tianqing Pharmaceutical Factory, Zone 3 warehouse."

Zhao Tong said, "I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Tong put down his chopsticks and tried to leave.

Shen Ji quickly put down his chopsticks, stretched out his hands, and said, "Godfather, take me with you!"

Zhao Tong said irritably, "What are you going to do? Stay home and eat your meal, and wait for your dad to come back."

Shen Jidao said, "Aren't the police officers coming to our house to collect evidence soon? They should be here soon too. Let's grab a bite to eat first and then go together."

"My mother had an accident at Tianqing Pharmaceutical Factory! I need to go see her!"

Zhao Tong wanted to say something more, but he suddenly remembered the conversation between Shen Ji and Wei Tian that he had seen on the surveillance footage.

This kid is indeed someone who has had direct contact with Wei Tian.

Moreover, Shen Ji is right, that's where Su Qian had her accident.

Now Wei Tian has also died in that place. Is there any necessary connection between the two?

Perhaps bringing this kid along might actually yield some unexpected results.

He plopped down on the floor again. "Fine, then hurry up and eat. If you cry from hunger later, I'll spank you."

Shen Ji: "..."

Why do adults always have a special fondness for children's bottoms?

The two, one big and one small, quickly shoveled rice onto the table, causing Uncle Zhong to frown. "Young Master, eat slowly, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shen Ji slammed his chopsticks on the small table. "Grandpa Butler, I'm going out with my godfather. Tell him when he gets back."

Uncle Zhong disagreed, saying, "Young Master, it's so late, you shouldn't..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Tong grinned, pulled Shen Ji out of the high chair like a radish, and tucked him into his waistband. "Uncle Zhong, don't worry, nothing will happen."

He didn't give Uncle Zhong a chance to react. He waved to the man, grabbed Shen Ji and the evidence from the sofa, and slipped out of the villa in a flash.

As soon as they stepped out of the villa, a police car pulled up in front of them.

The car window rolled down, and a woman with a high ponytail smiled and leaned against it. "Captain, what happened? You even stole a child?"

"Hey, I'm telling you, this is illegal."

"How could you, as a law enforcement officer, knowingly break the law?"

Zhao Tong ignored her and got into the back seat. "Let's go to the old Tianqing Pharmaceutical Factory, Section 3 first."

Liang Yun raised an eyebrow. "Something happened?"

"Wei Tian is dead."

"Dead?" Liang Yun exclaimed in surprise. "Who did Xiao Mo follow?"

Zhao Tong reached out and closed the car door. "Let's go over there first."

Liang Yun didn't say anything more, but stepped on the gas and drove off.

An hour later, the three arrived at the address of the old factory area 3 of Tianqing Pharmaceutical Factory.

Tianqing Pharmaceutical Factory is a factory under Huaien Group. Huaien Pharmaceutical has developed rapidly in the past two years and its scale has continued to expand. The old factory is no longer sufficient to support its business.

Last year, Huaien Pharmaceutical's new factory site was completed, and almost all of them have moved there in the first half of this year, so the old factory has been temporarily abandoned here.

I've heard that the Huaien Group is interested in selling this factory, but there's not much news about it yet.

Police tape had been put up outside the warehouse in District 3. Zhao Tong was afraid that the dead body would frighten Shen Ji, so he wanted him to wait in the car.

"I'm not afraid." Shen Ji jumped out of the car in a flash.

Zhao Tong frowned. "Aren't you afraid?"

Shen Ji nodded seriously.

Zhao Tong was still somewhat hesitant. After all, Shen Ji was only a three-year-old child.

If something serious were to happen, not only would it be unfair to the deceased Su Qian, but Shen Jiyuan, with his protective nature, would probably fight him to the death.

Shen Ji tugged at his trouser leg and said, "Uncle Zhao, I'm really not afraid, please take me with you."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Tong picked up the little radish from the ground. "If you get scared later, just snuggle into my arms, okay?"

Shen Ji hummed in agreement.

Liang Yun looked at them and asked, "Who is this child?"

Zhao Tong said, "My godson."

"Where did you meet me?"

"The Shen family."

"When did the Shen family have such a child?"

Liang Yun looked at Shen Ji strangely. Although he knew that Zhao Tong was the childhood sweetheart of the head of the Shen family, Shen Jiyuan was unmarried, and he had heard that he was allergic to women and devoted himself to Buddhism, abstaining from all desires and emotions.

People in the circle even gave him the nickname "the aloof Buddhist monk".

Of course, she heard all of this from within the industry, and she didn't know if it was true or false.

Zhao Tong didn't explain to her.

The fact that Shen Jiyuan has a son is indeed circulating within the circle, but it hasn't spread beyond that circle, and he can't say anything about it.

Seeing that he wouldn't say anything, Liang Yun naturally didn't ask any further questions.

The three of them arrived at the cordon and bent down to crawl through it.

A young man walked towards them, and his eyes lit up when he saw Zhao Tong and Liang Yun. "Captain, Sister Liang! You're here!"

Liang Yun nodded. "Where is he?"

Mo Yang pointed to the warehouse and said, "Inside, Brother Zhou's preliminary autopsy report is out. He was stabbed seven or eight times and died of hemorrhagic shock. He died on the spot."

Zhao Tong frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you to follow him? How did he end up dead here?"

Mo Yang lowered his head apologetically, "That kid is too alert. He must have realized I was following him and has been trying to shake me off the whole time."

He paused for a moment and then said, "After I followed him all the way here, I didn't dare to go in with him anymore. I watched him go into this warehouse."

"This warehouse only has one main entrance, so I figured he would come out from here if he wanted to leave."

"But I waited outside for over an hour, and Wei Tian still didn't come out."

Mo Yang said in a deep voice, "I had a bad feeling, so I went into the warehouse to check, and found that the kid was already dead here."
