Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

Chapter 1161 - 574: Bluffing? Perfectly Reasonable_2

"That’s right."

Luo Fei said, shaking his phone slightly.

"And just now, Shen Yueling sent me a message. She also noticed that there’s always a newspaper from August 2019 on her father’s desk. So, I suspect there’s something fishy about this matter. It’s possible that during that year, something happened to the other party, or they experienced some significant timeline event."

Luo Fei analyzed with a serious tone.

This left everyone exchanging looks.

"Mr. Luo, how do you deduce so much substantive content from the phenomena?"

"Yes, your judgment and insight are truly remarkable, far beyond what most people could achieve. It’s really admirable."

Even though Ji Bing and the others were quite impressed,

Luo Fei took a deep breath and said,

"Actually, instead of calling it insight, it’s better to say it’s intuition. My judgment could be wrong. So, I hope you maintain your ability to make independent judgments. Also, Shen Yueling mentioned that when she was a child, she planned to live with her father in the villa area because it was closer to school."

"But for some reason, she didn’t end up doing that. Later, when she asked her father, he only said it was a remote wilderness with no neighbors, making it inconvenient for hospital visits or shopping. So, the matter was no longer pursued."

Listening to Luo Fei’s analysis,

Ji Bing hesitated.

"Mr. Luo, it’s obvious that Mr. Shen was deliberately giving a perfunctory excuse. The real reason is likely not that simple."

Seeing his intentions guessed by the others,

Luo Fei gave a noncommittal smile.

"You are right."

"So this time, we’ll pretend to be potential buyers of the house, to make the other party completely drop their guard."

While speaking,

Luo Fei and the others had already changed into casual clothes.

But for He Jiayun, such a style was quite awkward.

"Mr. Luo, I should’ve worn a hoodie and jeans. Now that I’m in a business suit, I feel really uncomfortable and uneasy."

Understanding her meaning, the tone was somewhat amused.

Luo Fei shook his head with a smile.

"Ms. He, actually, you look quite good in a business suit, like a qualified female secretary."

But these words from Luo Fei made the other feel a bit awkward.

He Jiayun was shocked and asked,

"Mr. Luo, are you sure that’s a compliment, and you’re not just making fun of me?"

At that moment,

He Jiayun really shook her head.

A look of confusion and bewilderment appeared on her face.

And Luo Fei just smiled.

"Ms. He, I’m serious. After all, only if you two convincingly act like staff can I possibly persuade the people we need to convince, right?"

As Luo Fei said this, he prepared to take the two to leave.

But over at Inspector Situ’s side, there was some worry.

"Mr. Luo, once you leave this time, who knows when you’ll be back. I also hope you’ll take good care of yourself, and if you ever wish to return or need legal assistance, please reach out to me. I’ll do my utmost to help."

Understanding his intent,

Luo Fei was somewhat moved.

"Inspector Situ, thank you for this matter in advance."

"I know you’ve been very invested in the previous case and somewhat anxious, hoping to solve it quickly. But such things can’t be rushed. So, unfortunately, you’ll have to wait a while longer."

Seeing Luo Fei hit the nail on the head regarding his concerns,

Inspector Situ gave a noncommittal response.

"Mr. Luo, rest assured, I’m in no hurry to pressure you. If you encounter any situation later on, you can communicate with me promptly. We’ll also be diligently investigating the case here."

As the call ended,

Luo Fei said,

"Let’s go, Ji Bing, we can head to Mountain City now."

With that, Luo Fei immediately bought plane tickets.

The following day at noon,

Luo Fei and his team arrived in Mountain City.

However, since this was a secret operation,

Luo Fei and the team hadn’t made many preparations or notified the local police.

"Mr. Luo, you must be careful. If you encounter any danger later, be extra cautious."

Moments later, as the call connected,

Li Yu was somewhat worried and reminded Luo Fei.

Yet he curiously asked as if unconcerned,

"Li Yu, by the way, have you received any calls or heard any news lately?"

"Has there been any progress in the previous case investigation?"

Hearing Luo Fei ask this,

Li Yu smirked.

"Mr. Luo, really, while everyone else is worried about you, you’re only concerned about the case’s investigation progress."

Li Yu’s tone carried a hint of helplessness.

But compared to him, Luo Fei remained calm and collected.

"Li Yu, this is just a necessary part of our police investigation. There’s nothing to be distressed about, right?"

"Besides, didn’t we discuss earlier?"

"While I’m away, you’re responsible for investigating the case, continuing to follow up on the previous one."

To be precise, Luo Fei wished that Li Yu and the team,

could keep an eye on Chen Jinping, preventing him from doing anything out of line.

But upon hearing Luo Fei’s words,

Li Yu and the others were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Mr. Luo, to be honest, we really wish to capture Chen Jinping."

"But ever since you left, Chen Jinping has been quite nonchalant. He goes to work normally every day and goes fishing during his breaks. We haven’t noticed any unusual behavior from him."

"Not to mention, Ruan Shaomei’s mental condition isn’t normal. To some extent, we think Chen Jinping might also be a victim here."

Understanding their intent,

The tone sounded hesitant, fearing potential blame.

Luo Fei simply smiled in response.

"You both make reasonable suspicions. It’s understandable."

"However, it’s important not just to look at the surface of things, so I still hope you continue to observe for a while before reaching a conclusion."

After hearing his words,

The tone came across as nonchalant, giving an air of casual normalcy.

Li Yu had no choice but to agree.

"Mr. Luo, you must be careful, and if you encounter any situation, contact the local police as soon as possible. Otherwise, Yang Mei and I will worry about you."

"Li Yu, rest assured. There are three of us here, not just me alone."

While they spoke,

Luo Fei and his team had already arrived at their destination.

Upon reaching the villa area,

The security guard at the entrance was somewhat listless.

"Are you three here for a visit or to purchase land?"

Hearing the question, the tone was nonchalant,

as if indifferent. Luo Fei explained with a smile.

"Sir, please don’t misunderstand. We’re not here to buy property. We’re just looking to rent one of the villas for an upcoming film shoot."

Upon hearing this, the elderly man’s eyes lit up immediately.

"Sir, are you saying you’re here to shoot a horror film and need a place for filming?"

Seeing the surprise in his demeanor,

Luo Fei gave an ambiguous look.

"Yes, we’re with a film company, and we’re planning to shoot a movie here, so we’re looking to rent a villa. As you can see, these houses have been abandoned for a long time, making them perfect for a horror film setting. But, do you know if any are available for rent?"

As Luo Fei explained,

The security guard’s interest piqued.

"Sir, please wait a moment. I’ll contact our boss and be right back."
