Chapter 40 - Alice (1/2)
Feng Jianyu lounged on the sofa, ”start”.
”Yes, sir”. Taking out a file from his jacket he started reading from it, ”She is a 16- year- old destitute girl, who had come to this city 4 months back and since then she is working in that coffee house at night.”
”In the morning from 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., she works at a computer repair shop. She is very efficient in her work and completes the whole day's work in just 4 hours. That's why the owner never complains and gives her full salary.
Feng Jianyu raised his hand and stopped him in between, ”Wait! How does she commute from one place to another?”
Private investigator explained, ”I have noticed that she has carefully selected her workplace to reduce her time of travel. But as a mode of transport, she uses a bicycle… And it's not an ordinary bicycle”.
”Hm? What do you mean?”, he frowned.
”Umm… She had modified it”.
He chuckled, ”Hm! Continue”
”After finishing her work in the computer repair shop, her next place of work is never fixed”.
”Explain!”
He nodded his head and explained his point, ”I said that because from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. she roams around different streets with her toolbox, and repair broken machines”.
”There's no pattern in her choice and she would just roam around at her own will. But she has become quite famous for this talent of hers; people wait for her arrival to get their machine repaired”.
”Cough… In fact, when my car broke down, she helped me at that time”, He said feeling ashamed.
”She can not only repair them but can also build them from scratch. To help a beggar in this scorching heat, she created a solar fan for him using a broken washing machine”. Private Investigator was impressed by this and included it in his report.
”From 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. she sits in a garden and writes something on a notebook”.
”Does by any chance you know what she writes?”, he questioned.
”Yes, sir… I stole her notebook to take a look. She had written some kind of computer codes in it”.
Hearing this he raised his brows and asked coldly, ”You stole her notebook?”
Private Investigator gulped, ”I did… But after taking a look I put it back in her bag discreetly”.
”Good!”
Sighing in relief he continued, ”From there she would go straight to her house and remain in there till 9:30 p.m.”
”Then from 9:30 p.m. till next day 4:00 a.m. she works at a coffee house. After her night shift gets over she would return back to her home. ”
”She works all day? What about school or college?”
