Free Web NovelChapter 1089: Chapter 538: Close Attention! Danger Level! (Part 2)
Luo Fei’s reminder made the other person swallow hard.
"Mr. Luo, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect that my father might be involved, and perhaps even an accomplice in this case?"
The tension in the other person was visible.
Sweat started to bead on his forehead.
Luo Fei quickly explained.
"No, Mr. Huang, I didn’t say that."
"It’s just that given the current situation of the case, besides him, most of the others who attended the dinner have already been killed. So even if I have my suspicions, it’s understandable, right?"
Then, Luo Fei took out a prepared photograph of the banquet.
And upon seeing the black-and-white photo.
In the picture, his father appeared radiant, full of spirit.
Toasting with those around him, seemingly strategizing, confident, planning to make a grand career move.
Huang Weiming was somewhat anxious.
"Mr. Luo, are you referring to the people who attended this particular banquet?"
"Doesn’t this also mean my father is now in great danger?"
Upon careful reflection, it seemed the photos his father had were also of this banquet.
But every time he tried to look, his father would put the photo away, as if afraid he’d notice something.
This realization suddenly made Huang Weiming understand that his earlier suspicions were completely reasonable.
At this point, Luo Fei confirmed.
"That’s right."
While speaking, Luo Fei specifically pointed to Zhao Ligang in the corner of the photo.
"This gentleman, you should know him. He was recently found murdered, Zhao Ligang. Do you have any impression of him?"
Upon hearing Luo Fei’s reminder.
Huang Weiming felt a bit anxious.
His face also showed signs of nervousness.
"Mr. Luo, I indeed have met him once."
"But the meeting was not pleasant."
After Huang Weiming explained, Luo Fei understood.
The unpleasantness stemmed from Zhao Ligang’s harsh words.
"That old man repeatedly and subtly insulted my family when we met, and deliberately said unpleasant things, which was really uncomfortable. Although I wanted to rebut him, there were other people present, so I held back."
Huang Weiming said, then let out a cold laugh.
But he immediately realized his inappropriate behavior.
So he quickly explained.
"Mr. Luo, I’m saying this, but I’ve only met him once. It was a fleeting encounter. There’s no reason to lose my temper because of him, let alone murder him to silence him. Please don’t misunderstand."
The other person seemed hesitant to speak.
As he said this, he pursed his lips slightly and sweat appeared on his forehead.
Luo Fei just smiled.
"Don’t worry, Mr. Huang, I understand your meaning."
"But if that’s the case, then think about it, doesn’t this case become even stranger?"
Almost simultaneously.
Ms. Lin also spoke up.
"Indeed, if there was no conflict, then what was the purpose of those words? Maybe those words were a hint?"
"A hint?"
This angle, Mr. Huang had truly never considered.
Reflecting on it,
Luo Fei began searching for information inside the villa.
Nodding in agreement.
"Ms. Lin is right. There might be a hidden motive or perhaps his words were a hint meant to convey some sort of message, but we still haven’t figured out what he meant."
Luo Fei’s analysis.
Instantly calmed the other person.
"Thinking about it carefully, Mr. Luo is right. I was puzzled too since I wasn’t familiar with Zhao Ligang, and even our businesses aren’t in the same field."
"Why would he suddenly say such things, as if accusing my father?"
Later, Mr. Huang specifically asked his father.
If there was any grudge between their family and Zhao Ligang.
But his father affirmed.
That man just had a bad temper; he treated everyone the same.
He specifically reminded him not to take his words to heart.
Maybe he was just in a bad mood, looking for trouble on purpose.
"Security?"
Almost simultaneously.
Luo Fei arrived at the door to Zhao Ligang’s bedroom.
Just as he intended to open the door.
He found it locked.
Even more surprising.
The security guard admitted.
"Mr. Luo, it’s not that I’m deliberately doing anything. It’s just that I truly don’t have the key to this room. It’s in my master’s possession. So..."
Seeing the security guard shrug.
He seemed somewhat helpless.
Luo Fei said nothing, just took out his service weapon.
And instructed others to cover their ears.
Bam! Bam!
With two muffled bangs.
The lock fell to the ground.
At least it was an indoor bedroom door, just wooden.
Had it been a security door, Luo Fei might not have been able to open it directly.
As the door swung open.
Huang Weiming took just a glance.
Then hurriedly used his body to almost completely block the view of Ms. Lin and Li Yu.
"No, Ms. Lin, Officer Li, maybe you shouldn’t look inside?"
Seeing Huang Weiming hesitate.
At this moment, he grimaced.
Ms. Lin and Li Yu were somewhat puzzled.
"What’s wrong, Mr. Huang?"
"Yes, is there something wrong in this room?"
Seeing the two of them puzzled.
Luo Fei also spoke.
"I think Mr. Huang is right, there is indeed a big problem with this room. Perhaps you shouldn’t come in."
But the more Luo Fei said this, the more curious the two became.
In the next second.
As the wind blew the door open.
The scene inside made Ms. Lin and Li Yu widen their eyes instantly.
But in the next second, they turned their heads, blushing, and cleared their throats casually as if acting calm.
"Looks like we really should wait outside."
"Mr. Luo, unless you particularly need me, maybe I’ll stay out?"
Seeing the two clear their throats unnaturally, their faces filled with awkwardness and bewilderment.
Luo Fei just smiled.
"I said you should stay outside. Mr. Huang, come with me."
Handing him a pair of rubber gloves and shoe covers.
Worried about damaging any traces and clues in the scene.
Mr. Huang hesitated greatly.
"Mr. Luo, this isn’t appropriate, is it? I’m not a police officer, why should I go in?"
But seeing him hesitant, with his face full of bewilderment and awkwardness.
Luo Fei urged him.
"Mr. Huang, right now you’re the only person I can trust. Unless you don’t want to find the clues. Even if your father were harmed, it doesn’t matter?"
At this moment.
Luo Fei was genuinely surprised.
Mr. Huang awkwardly said.
"No, Mr. Luo, of course I don’t want anything to happen to my father. But now I am truly dedicated to Ms. Lin. If I go into such a room, even to take a glance, she might think I’m impure, or even dirty. What then?"
But Mr. Huang smiled awkwardly.
His face showing a hint of embarrassment.
Beside him, Ms. Lin seriously said.
"Mr. Huang, at times like this you must not shrink back! You should face it head-on!"
"Besides, there are only a few of us on the scene. If you don’t step up, who will? Are you suggesting Ms. Lin and Li Yu enter to step on those dirty things and cross that swing set?"
Seeing Ms. Lin so earnest.
Huang Weiming took a deep breath and agreed.
"Alright, then, I’ll go!"
