Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

The other party seemed to find it somewhat incredible, but basically already understood my intentions.

Luo Fei also remained noncommittal.

"That’s right, Miss Lu. Unexpectedly, you’re quite clever."

Although Luo Fei said this,

Sister Tang beside him said seriously,

"Officer, although you are a policeman, that doesn’t mean you can definitely uncover the truth. Also, I believe, if the young master you’re talking about is really Ruan Shaomei’s partner and is involved in illegal activities, they would certainly take precautions and not allow others to investigate them easily."

"So your current situation is very dangerous."

"How could it be?"

Luo Fei said, walking to the villa’s entrance, scanning the surroundings.

"Everyone, stop hiding. Come out now."

Hearing Luo Fei say this,

At first, Sister Tang and Lu Xiaoxue were a bit bewildered.

"Mr. Luo, how did you discover us?"

"Is there even a need to ask? When you were planning in the yard earlier, I heard the sounds through the duct in the basement. I didn’t want to disrupt your plans, and also, just in case, I didn’t directly expose you."

In the next second,

When they saw figures emerging from the bushes and behind the villa,

Sister Tang and Lu Xiaoxue were stunned, feeling fortunate they had actively cooperated with Luo Fei’s investigation.

Otherwise, if they hadn’t, they might already be in police custody by now.

Thinking of this,

Lu Xiaoxue began trembling all over, her heart pounding relentlessly.

In contrast, Luo Fei appeared much more composed.

"You are police from the local station, right? Sorry for not exposing you earlier, or else you wouldn’t have had to crouch in the lawn for so long."

Luo Fei did this for his reasons.

After all, he didn’t want the police to suddenly jump out before reaching a cooperation with Lu Xiaoxue.

If that happened, it would only interfere with his plan.

Realizing this point,

Leading officer Zhao Jibing, Captain Zhao, felt a little embarrassed.

"Mr. Luo, I apologize for not informing you in advance. We were counting those health supplements and got the test results. We found these are expired and contain a lot of carcinogens. So we immediately sent people secretly ambush the villa area to catch the bad guys."

"We just didn’t expect that you would personally come to Mountain City for this case. It’s quite surprising."

Luo Fei smiled at this.

"No choice, as this matter is directly related to a major case our task force is investigating. I see it as a minor effort to help with the investigation."

Luo Fei was talking delightfully with Zhao Jibing.

But beside them, Lu Xiaoxue was nervous.

"Officer, my dealings with Mr. Luo were all for the investigation. I dared not touch the tens of thousands of dollars. However, to keep up appearances, I still need to hand the check to our manager tomorrow."

"So, if possible, please forgive us. Don’t see us as the bad guys."

Holding her breath,

Lu Xiaoxue waited for a response, while Zhao Jibing laughed.

"Miss Lu, I heard what you and Mr. Luo discussed earlier. I can tell you were forced. So as long as you return the money from those supplement sales and apologize publicly to the victims’ families, this matter will end here."

"We won’t hold it against you."

Understanding their intention,

Lu Xiaoxue was slightly relieved.

But Luo Fei said on the side,

"Officer, though I know you mean well, from my perspective, we should be fully prepared for all possibilities."

Luo Fei spoke with sincere seriousness, his expression slightly stern.

Zhao Jibing remained noncommittal.

"Mr. Luo is right. However, handling this meeting with the other party is something our people can deal with. More importantly, I want Mr. Luo to help me investigate another case. It’s crucial too."

Hearing this, Luo Fei promptly asked sternly,

"Murder?"

Zhao Jibing neither confirmed nor denied.

"Mr. Luo is correct. Some time ago, there was a report of a missing girl near this villa area, her whereabouts unknown for three months. The family has lost hope."

"We suspect perhaps the child was deliberately harmed and disposed of here."

Hearing this news,

Lu Xiaoxue was terrified, her face turning pale.

"No, officer, I only claimed there was a paranormal event here to prevent unwelcome troublemakers. I hadn’t imagined it was actually true?"

At this moment,

Lu Xiaoxue was utterly bewildered.

She never expected,

The false story she concocted to create a mystery and protect the goods,

Actually reflected reality.

This truly startled her.

Observing Lu Xiaoxue, her face full of shock and disbelief,

Luo Fei simply smiled.

"It’s nothing, Miss Lu. After all, it’s not certain the girl died here. However, when I was in the basement, I did notice a stench near the staircase wall."

"If Captain Zhao is interested, maybe he should investigate it."

Luo Fei spoke lightly,

Though Zhao Jibing held little hope,

Since the suggestion was made, he decided to check it out.

Realizing the other party truly intended to investigate, hoping to find a body,

Ji Bing was shocked.

"Mr. Luo, are you serious? Or is there really a corpse down there we didn’t know about?"

Ji Bing asked, her voice tinged with surprise,

Feeling frightened,

Because at the start,

They had planned to spend the night down there!

But now, there might be a body,

Just thinking about it, Ji Bing got goosebumps.

Though she’s a trained police officer,

With prior experience handling corpses,

This kind of situation would unsettle anyone.

Just then, Zhao Jibing jogged over.

"Mr. Luo, you’re incredible. There is indeed a body down there, and judging by the bones’ age, it seems to be a young girl."

"Her body was hidden within the wall, so we couldn’t detect it. We sincerely thank you."

Listening, Luo Fei responded seriously.

"I think this suggests Shenyue Ling was right. Her father likely didn’t want her to know of a death in this villa district, hence the cover-up."

Hearing Zhao Jibing’s words,

Ji Bing and He Jiayun were astonished.

"Officer Zhao, this can’t be possible?"

"We only just investigated and had no idea a body was there. How could such a coincidence happen in the world?"

Understanding their intention,

Zhao Jibing smiled.

"Perhaps it was fate, arranged by the heavens to bring you here, solve the case, and seek justice for that little girl?"
