We brought the hard-earned evidence to the lawyer. After examining it carefully, he pushed up his glasses and revealed a confident smile. "This evidence is compelling. As long as we persevere, we will surely ensure that Cheng Huai receives the punishment he deserves!" 0
 
"Really? That's wonderful!" Hope sparkled in my eyes as I leaned forward eagerly and asked, "Finally, we can seek justice for my father and the other victims!" I clenched my fists tightly, as if I could already see the dawn of victory. 0
 
However, Cheng Huai was not one to be underestimated. Upon learning that we were gathering evidence, he escalated his threats against us. One day, after work, I was cornered by several men in black. The leader carved a bloody threat into the wall with a distinctive red brick from the demolition area: "Stop your investigation, or you'll regret it!" The dust from the brick fell like an omen of impending doom. 0
 
Fear gripped my heart, and my pulse raced, but I forced myself to say, "I won't give up! You can't intimidate me!" I straightened my back, trying hard to appear unafraid. 0
 
At that moment, I noticed that one of the men in black had a keychain from Bai Wei's livestreaming studio hanging from his waist! My heart sank—could these people be connected to Bai Wei? How complicated was the web of interests behind this? 0
 
Fortunately, Zhou Ran arrived just in time and engaged in a fierce fight with the men in black. During the struggle, Zhou Ran tore off one of their sleeves, revealing an embroidered logo identical to that of the Demolition Team. A shock ran through me; these men were indeed part of the Demolition Team and were in cahoots with Cheng Huai! 0
 
We seized the opportunity to escape. As we passed Cheng Huai's office, I inadvertently glanced at a surveillance screen and was stunned to see that it displayed footage synchronized with Bai Wei's livestream backend! Even more shocking was a close-up of a man's hand on the screen—he wore a concrete ring identical to Cheng Huai's! 0
 
As we prepared for the impending courtroom confrontation, fate dealt me a crushing blow. That day, I hurried to the hospital as usual and rushed into the ward. What I saw made my heart drop—my father lay on the hospital bed, pale as paper and devoid of color. With his last ounce of strength, he slowly reached out his hand and grasped mine tightly. His hand was dry and cold; his voice was weak yet filled with reluctance. " girl... Dad... I'm sorry..." Before he could finish his sentence, his hand fell limply away, and the line on the ECG monitor turned into a cold straight line. 0
 
"Dad! Dad! Wake up! Don't scare me!" I threw myself onto my father’s body, desperately calling out as tears streamed uncontrollably down my face like pearls from a broken string. My body shook violently as I clutched his arm tightly, as if that could bring him back. "I haven't had a chance to save you yet; how can you just leave like this... You promised me you'd watch me get married and have children!" 0
 
At that moment, the sound of condensation dripping from the freezer echoed repeatedly like fate's drumbeat striking my heart. Helplessly, I looked up through the glass of the freezer and saw my father's reflection. That reflection remained clear, but I knew he would never return. As I cried, tears from the reflection corroded a strange pattern on the glass; upon closer inspection, it turned out to be coordinates for a Dangerous Building Blueprint! 0
