Transmigrated as a vicious stepmother, I raised a child who became a heartthrob.

Chapter 115 Locator

With barely any strength left in his hands, he hurriedly made a phone call to Jiang Ji, not even having time to say anything more.

There were many things piling up there, pushing him forward.

Huo Wang wasn't even entirely clear on what was happening, but he still sensed danger and wanted to take care of everyone around him.

Pei Hui's injuries were treated quickly, mainly involving stitches, bandaging, and an IV drip. He was out soon.

At that time, Jiang Ji was also brought in by the police.

"Huo Wang! Why are you covered in so much blood?"

Jiang Ji almost shouted in surprise. Huo Wang's body covered in blood looked terrifying, and the blood had congealed and turned a dark color.

"and……"

I glanced around and saw the police and the unfamiliar uncle I'd seen before.

Jiang Ji felt a vague unease in his heart. He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he felt a strong sense of fear.

"I……."

This might be too cruel or beyond a child's comprehension. Huo Wang opened and closed his mouth a few times, but finally decided to speak.

"I'll tell you what happened, but you have to stay calm, okay? I'm still here."

Huo Wang gave the other party a heads-up.

"What could he possibly have? He's much stronger than you think."

Pei Hui chuckled.

These words were so cold and indifferent that even the police officers waiting nearby couldn't help but glance at them twice.

A hint of wariness crept into his eyes.

"It's okay. What happened to my mother?"

This child displayed extraordinary composure. For a moment, he didn't even seem like a child.

Huo Wang briefly explained the situation to the other party, not daring to exaggerate the severity of the injury, and simply instructed Jiang Ji to stay close to him.

"I'll wait for my mom here."

I thought Jiang Ji would throw a tantrum, but nothing happened. Her face was unexpectedly calm; she just stood there stubbornly.

"Stubborn donkey."

Pei Hui sneered, looking at the little brat. "Stupid as hell. Do you think waiting here will solve anything?"

"Gentlemen, your wounds have been bandaged and we have consulted a doctor. We are now taking your statements."

Due to the special circumstances, Jiang Ji was accompanied by a police officer.

Huo Wang, Pei Hui, and some police officers requisitioned a hospital room to conduct brief questioning, and the entire process was recorded.

Huo Wang didn't know much, so he simply asked questions and then went to investigate.

Conversely, the lingering time will be longer.

"Yes, she had a conflict with some people, a business conflict. She owns a restaurant, and this happened today. You can talk to the police there to find out more."

Pei Hui intuitively felt that the two things could be combined, and at the same time, he intentionally or unintentionally revealed to the police that Jiang Zhuhua had many business conflicts, while also emphasizing the Jiang family.

“Their family has deep-seated conflicts, which have escalated to the point of no return online. As her close friend, I feel very sad.”

Despite expressing his sadness, Pei Hui's expression was more one of indifference, as if he were talking about something trivial.

"We will certainly conduct an investigation, but this process may cause inconvenience to both of us. We hope Mr. Pei can cooperate fully."

Things are complicated. Whatever the reason, Pei Hui has revealed a lot, so it's impossible for him to leave so quickly.

Huo Wang and Jiang Zhuhua are in a romantic relationship, so relatively little is known about them. This gives them more freedom.

"Fool, let me give you some advice. First, take a look at the restaurant's security footage. Make sure you have a backup. Also, check if any samples of the food from that day were kept."

Pei Hui didn't linger there; instead, he gave a reminder before leaving.

Just this one sentence pulled Huo Wang out of his dazed state.

Now is not the time to let your imagination run wild. Jiang Zhuhua has come out of the operating room, but he is still in the critical period.

The doctor said that it would take observation to determine if there was any problem.

Jiang Zhuhua is no longer a reliable source of support; Huo Wang must rely on himself to stand up for himself.

“An’an, I have something to deal with. Your mother may have been set up by someone, and if it’s not handled properly, there could be other dangers.”

After all, it involves a miscarried child and murder. One wrong move and the business could collapse; if the truth isn't uncovered, there could be another murder in the future.

“I know I won’t wander off. But I don’t want to go out with you. I need to watch over her now. If she wakes up, she needs someone to help her.”

Jiang Ji sat there quietly, watching the IV drip.

"I'll give you a locator."

Huo Wang didn't say much; in fact, he felt that nowhere was safe enough, including his own surroundings.

"I need to go to the restaurant to check the surveillance footage and find out what's going on. Otherwise, we'll be in a passive position."

The GPS tracker was just ordered recently, and it's being delivered within the same city. You can buy these things online.

This thing can also record audio.

"You have one locator, and I have one locator. That way, I can know where you are, and you can know where I am."

Huo Wang bound the two locators to the software. He turned both on and confirmed they were working.

The locator wasn't placed in a conspicuous place or in a pocket, but rather inside the shoe, under the protruding bone of the ankle, which would be safer that way.

"I don't know what will happen, or what exactly happened. But the things must be hidden well, so that if anything unexpected happens, I can locate you."

Huo Wang did the same thing to Jiang Ji.

Jiang Zhuhua had previously put the locator in Jiang Ji's smartwatch, but Huo Wang was unwilling to touch Jiang Zhuhua's phone. He also didn't know if the locator was still working, or if it had been tampered with by someone else.

Although he doesn't usually use his brain much, he's not brainless.

If it can be secretly confirmed that it is indeed targeting Jiang Zhuhua, then it's impossible that they don't know what she has done.

Everything around Jiang Zhuhua seemed unbelievable.

"Huo Wang."

Jiang Ji looked at the two location points on his phone. The two location points were very close to each other, almost overlapping.

He didn't know what he wanted to do; he just wanted to shout the name, as if he could draw strength from it.

"I'm here. Don't be afraid."

All Huo Wang could do was offer words of comfort; there was no time left for anything else.

He simply patted his head briefly, then turned and left.

At a time like this, he dared not take a taxi. Although the sky was clear and blue outside, he only felt a chill running through his body.
