Chapter 1145 - 566: Playing Hard to Get? A Little Ruse (Part 2)
Luo Fei’s analysis finally made Old Mrs. Li understand the course of events.
She also suddenly became saddened.
"That silly girl, how could she do this?"
"Couldn’t she just share her thoughts with me? I really can’t understand."
At this moment.
Old Mrs. Li truly felt a bit helpless.
And Luo Fei responded with a smile.
"Old Mrs. Li, if you had secrets, or things you didn’t want your children to know, would you tell them just because they’re worried about you?"
Initially, Old Mrs. Li was still a bit confused.
But at this moment, with Luo Fei’s words.
She was suddenly at a loss for words.
"This... Mr. Luo’s words seem to make some sense."
Seeing that the other party was a bit embarrassed, she hesitated to speak further.
Luo Fei also said.
"So, don’t worry, ma’am."
"Our police will solve this matter and try our best to uncover the truth, to find out why your daughter is deliberately hiding."
Hearing Luo Fei’s words.
Li Wanzhi also breathed a small sigh of relief.
However, although she was already in her seventies, she was energetic and her mind was sharp.
So Li Wanzhi suddenly thought of a key issue.
"But Mr. Luo, although we have roughly understood the course of events. But my daughter has deliberately hidden for so long. How could she easily show herself?"
Li Wanzhi said this with an anxious tone.
But Luo Fei smiled.
"Ms. Li, rest assured, regarding this point, I have my own way."
"However, to implement this plan, it might require your cooperation. I wonder if you would be willing?"
Subsequently, Luo Fei explained his thoughts to the other party.
But after hearing Luo Fei’s idea.
The butler beside them was taken aback.
"No, Mr. Luo, don’t we have any other ways? Do we have to resort to such extreme measures?"
"Old Chen."
But before Luo Fei could reply, the elderly lady beside him had already spoken in a deep voice.
"Mr. Luo, I understand your meaning."
"Let’s do as you said."
Seeing Li Wanzhi agree, Luo Fei also felt slightly relieved.
"Alright, I understand. Then I would like to thank you in advance, ma’am."
In the midst of talking.
Luo Fei was preparing to leave with Ji Bing and the others.
Only to see Luo Fei take the spare key, planning to search Wu Meilian’s residence.
Ji Bing was a bit surprised.
"Mr. Luo, what exactly did you tell the old lady? Will this really work?"
"Of course, I believe that no matter how heartless Wu Meilian is, she couldn’t possibly ignore her mother’s death and refuse to attend the funeral, right?"
Luo Fei’s words made Ji Bing’s mouth twitch.
"Oh, so Mr. Luo, your great idea is to have Old Mrs. Li pretend to be dead?"
Ji Bing said, slightly surprised.
Luo Fei also responded with a noncommittal smile.
"Ji Bing, as of now, it seems there’s no method more practical than this, right? After all, saving a life surpasses building a seven-tiered pagoda."
Luo Fei’s analysis left Ji Bing somewhat speechless.
After all, previously Wu Meilian would at least send her mother text messages, but now there was simply no sound.
This indicates that she is either in great danger and unable to send messages, or she might be in mortal danger, which is why she can’t easily contact her mother.
After hearing the analysis.
Ji Bing also realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Mr. Luo, hearing you say this, indeed this incident is very serious."
"Therefore, we not only have to search Wu Meilian’s home but also install surveillance equipment.
This is considered a method when no other is available."
Understanding the intent, Ji Bing could only nod in agreement.
After a while.
The two arrived at Wu Meilian’s residence.
The nanny had already been waiting at the door.
"Hello to both officers, I am the nanny of this house. My name is Nanny Chen."
"Nanny Chen, while cleaning the room, did you notice anything strange? If you discovered any issues, you can communicate with us immediately. Our police will fully cooperate and actively investigate."
Luo Fei asked, with a tone of surprise.
Nanny Chen also replied with a bit of embarrassment.
"Officer, what I mean is that in the previous investigation process, I indeed did not find any excessive abnormal situations."
"Therefore, I speculate that Ms. Wu has not returned at all. Besides, she had a big argument with Mr. Shen, and they both got very heated over it."
Hearing this news.
Luo Fei couldn’t help but be surprised.
"Really, Ms. Wu argued with Mr. Shen before?"
"Yes, it was when Ye Shanshan died. Although that female secretary was always misunderstood by the madam, Mr. Shen had a stubborn temper. Mr. Shen never explained to Wu Meilian whether he had anything with Ye Shanshan, instead allowing the misunderstanding to continue. This led to the madam’s heart being troubled and getting suspicious."
Apparently, even after Ye Shanshan’s death.
When Wu Meilian asked Shen Liufeng about it, he maintained a silent attitude.
He also said that what he gave to the other party, he gave willingly.
What he didn’t give, she had no right to ask further.
This kind of answer made He Jiayun sneer.
"Pfft, who does Shen Liufeng think he is, some domineering CEO? It’s truly laughable."
He Jiayun shook her head with a bit of amusement.
But Luo Fei wasn’t surprised by this, after all, from the first contact with Shen Liufeng.
He could feel that the other party was the typical type, the kind who never allowed anyone around him to argue.
If at all, someone dared defy him.
Then probably Shen Liufeng would do something terrifying.
And upon realizing this fact.
Ji Bing also said.
"But Mr. Luo, even if we wait endlessly, it’s not a solution. Who knows when Ms. Wu will come back?"
Hearing this.
Luo Fei curiously asked.
"Nanny Chen, you generally clean the room and then not return until the weekend next week, right?"
"That’s right, Mr. Luo. Normally after cleaning today, I leave for the night."
Hearing the analysis.
Luo Fei nodded.
"I understand. Then Ji Bing, I think we should stay nearby tonight. If she comes back at night, being nearby we can discover it at the first moment."
Luo Fei’s suggestion took Ji Bing by surprise.
"Mr. Luo, can this work?"
"Why not? Accommodation expenses are covered by Superintendent Situ. We just need to focus on the investigation."
Luo Fei said, in a serious tone.
Ji Bing could only agree.
"If Mr. Luo says so, then I’ll follow your lead."
As they spoke.
Ji Bing and He Jiayun went to the hotel across the apartment building for a temporary stay.
Luo Fei had no other requirements except that the room’s view faces Wu Meilian’s window.
Such a request made the hotel staff’s expressions serious immediately.
"Officer, are you investigating a case?"
However, seeing the other party brighten at the eyes.
Almost instantaneously they were spirited.
Luo Fei responded noncommittally.
"Yes, however, madam, you don’t need to do anything but stay put and not alert the target."
"Oh okay. But officer, what I wanted to mention was something else actually."
Hearing the lady boss speak, her tone was somewhat tentative.
Luo Fei’s curiosity was piqued.
"Madam, specifically what do you mean?"
Seeing the other party a bit puzzled.
The lady boss also spoke somewhat mysteriously.
"Officer, truth be told, this place has been quite unsettling recently. Recently there was a lunatic who kept pouring toilet cleaner from the rooftop. So if you’re investigating, do be careful."
