"How about that girl?" Fang Bo asked again.
"That girl is quite pretty too! She has two cute dimples when she smiles!" the clerk replied.
Fang Bo and I exchanged a smile.
It seemed that this bracelet belonged to Ma Zhaofang!
The clerk added, "That boy was also wearing a hat and a black jacket."
"Do you remember when they came in?" Fang Bo asked once more.
"It seems like it was over four months ago..." the clerk answered.
We quickly took out our phones, pulled up the photo of Sun Chen we had taken earlier, and handed it to the clerk. "Is this the boy?"
The clerk glanced at the photo and said, "No... that boy looks much more mature than this one."
Fang Bo and I smiled at each other.
It seemed that this boy must be the one who sent love letters to Ma Zhaofang!
We hurriedly asked the clerk, "Can you check the surveillance footage from over four months ago?"
The clerk shook his head. "Our surveillance only keeps records for a month. The older footage is automatically deleted."
"What about the payment records?" Fang Bo asked again.
"The boy paid in cash," the clerk replied.
Hearing this, Fang Bo and I felt a wave of disappointment wash over us.
It seemed this lead had come to an end.
Suddenly, Fang Bo and I remembered the last picture Xue Ling had sent to Sun Chen.
The picture depicted a hot pot restaurant.
The tables and chairs in the restaurant were made of wood, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
Soft music played in the background, adding to the comfortable ambiance.
Fang Bo and I decided to start our search at this hot pot restaurant.
After sifting through countless reviews, we finally found a place that resembled the one in the picture shared by Ma Zhaofang.
This hot pot restaurant was located near the house where Ma Zhaofang had previously lived.
She moved out the day after resigning from her job.
Fang Bo and I quickly made our way to the restaurant.
The owner was a hospitable middle-aged man with a full beard and a beaming smile.
"Boss, we’d like to review your surveillance footage," Fang Bo said straightforwardly.
"Surveillance footage?" The owner looked at us suspiciously. "Why do you want to see that?"
Fang Bo smiled and pulled out his police badge. "We are police officers. We're here to investigate a case."
The owner stared at us in surprise. "Police? Investigating?"
"Yes," Fang Bo nodded with a smile. "We're looking into a case and need your assistance."
The owner appeared confused. "How can I assist you?"
Fang Bo handed him a photo. "Can you tell us if this person has been here?"
The photo showed Ma Zhaofang, taken by Fang Bo and me earlier.
The boss took the photo and glanced at it. "This person... looks a bit familiar..."
Fang Bo quickly asked, "Do you remember when she was last here?"
"Let me check the surveillance footage," the boss replied.
He led us to a corner of the shop.
In the corner was a table with a computer on it.
The boss opened the computer and began searching for the surveillance video.
After a while, he looked up. "Found it!"
Fang Bo and I hurried over to take a look.
The surveillance footage showed Ma Zhaofang dining across from someone who was not captured on camera.
However, the camera at the entrance clearly recorded Ma Zhaofang's face.
The person who was not filmed was Xue Ling.
She was sitting to Ma Zhaofang's left.
