Arriving at Situ Yan's familiar ho, Jiang Feng sensed a slightly ambiguous atmosphere.
After all, the last ti he was here, he almost got turned down by Situ Yan.
Although he managed to "escape" in the end, the incident left him feeling extrely awkward, and both of them tacitly avoided bringing it up.
Situ Yan seed much more at ease than Jiang Feng, wearing only a nightgown, walking back and forth before Jiang Feng, fetching him cigarettes and pouring water for him.
The sporty, cool nightgown did little to hide her sexy, fiery figure. Her pair of snow-white thighs made hearts race, and her pink, sockless feet flashing back and forth in front of Jiang Feng's eyes had the allure of a beautiful woman at ho.
"Why did you suddenly think of going to the action departnt?"
After pouring water for Jiang Feng, Situ Yan sat down opposite him and asked.
"For Zhu Ge Yuheng."
Jiang Feng didn't hide anything: "He was kidnapped. The community's surveillance didn't catch anything, so I want to check the surrounding recordings."
"Zhu Ge Yuheng was kidnapped?" Situ Yan was equally surprised: "Was it at his ho?"
"Yes. I went to find you, but you weren't there, so I had Niu Tao help with it," Jiang Feng said calmly.
Situ Yan thought for a mont and asked, "Who do you think did it? His enemy or yours?"
As expected, she understood Jiang Feng well, directly asking the critical question.
"No idea. There's not a single clue right now. I was still in the Provincial City when I found out about this; it was quite sudden."
"Oh... your life really is a rollercoaster. You can't catch a break even for a few days..."
Situ Yan shook her head bitterly and then asked with concern: "I heard you caused quite a stir in Provincial City too, but I've been busy with a case and couldn't pay much attention. Is everything over there resolved now?"
"More or less, you don't need to worry about at all. I was just about to ask you—" Jiang Feng looked at Situ Yan: "Are you really planning to go to that 'Nightmare Ghost Shadow' alone tonight?"
Situ Yan was slightly taken aback: "Niu Tao told you?"
Jiang Feng nodded: "Don't you think you're being reckless? Knowing there's possibly a cri scene there, you still dare to go alone? Are you joking with your own safety?"
Situ Yan stared at Jiang Feng's expression, and suddenly burst into laughter, saying full of amusent, "What, you're worried about ?"
At that mont, her heart felt genuinely sweet. Jiang Feng's domineering concern and questioning made her feel very warm.
"Do you think I shouldn't worry?" Jiang Feng frowned, looking at her: "Or do you think it's not foolish to take such risks alone?"
Situ Yan snorted, feigning helplessness as she pouted: "What else can I do? The cases of assault are getting more frequent, and the culprit is very cunning. If I don't do this, what can I do?"
"The owner of the 'Nightmare Ghost Shadow' is very crafty. In the action departnt, he refuses to confess anything, and the female victims who report have no visible injuries, nor can we extract any valuable evidence from them."
"I carefully questioned each victim. None of them rembered the process of the assault, as if their mories were erased. They only discovered they were violated afterwards!"
"So using conventional thods won't solve such a tricky case. I had no choice but to use my private capacity to make an appointnt with the 'Nightmare Ghost Shadow's' owner, to infiltrate the enemy's den and gather firsthand evidence!"
"I think you're just being stupid, walking into the lion's den!" Jiang Feng glared at her, expressionless.
"Hey, don't look down on like that!"
Situ Yan retorted defiantly, "I'm an action officer, am I really that incapable? Besides, I've prepared thoroughly. Even if soone wants to set up, it's not that easy!"
Jiang Feng was speechless: "What good does your preparation do? You're just one person. Do you know what their intentions are? If it's a Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave, to put it bluntly, if they use force against you, there's nothing you can do!"
"Impossible! I don't believe they have such nerve!"
Situ Yan snorted: "No matter what you say, I'm going tonight. This case has reached a point where it must be solved. Eleven victims have reported, and how many more are threatened into silence? The type of criminal who harms won and commits serial cris is the one I hate most. I must stop their atrocities and cut off the cancer!"
Jiang Feng sighed: "You really know how to make people worry. How about this, if you insist, I'll go with you tonight."
Since Niu Tao couldn't provide results for a while, Jiang Feng really couldn't feel at ease with Situ Yan going into the den alone, so he had no choice but to reluctantly go along.
"You're coming with ?"
Situ Yan was a bit stunned at first, but then her heart filled with warmth. It felt great to be cared for and protected!
Imdiately, she bead with delight, saying, "That would be great! You said it, no backing out!"
"When have I ever gone back on my word to you?"
"Haha, alright then! I believe with the two of us working together, we can definitely get to the bottom of this!"
Situ Yan's confidence soared, brushing away her last bit of doubt, and her expression was exceptionally exuberant.
"Alright, I'm hungry. Go make sothing to eat." Jiang Feng shook his head, too lazy to say more.
"Okay, I'll go make so dishes in the kitchen, wait for !"
With excitent, Situ Yan got up and headed straight to the kitchen.
Watching her back, Jiang Feng felt quite helpless. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he took out his phone and called Chu Feifei.
On the phone, he briefly explained his visit to the action departnt. Find the newest release on N0v3l.Fiɾe
Since it would take a long ti for Niu Tao to review all the surveillance footage, they'd have to patiently wait for the results.
"Uncle, do you think Uncle Zhuge will be alright? Please don't let anything happen to him!" Chu Feifei asked anxiously after hearing Jiang Feng's words.
"I don't know." Jiang Feng sighed.
He really couldn't answer that question.
Who exactly kidnapped Zhu Ge Yuheng remained a mystery, and without any leads, Jiang Feng had no way to rescue him.
The only thing to do was to hope that Zhu Ge Yuheng could take care of himself or that Niu Tao could find traces of the culprit before any harm ca to him.
It's nothing short of a race against ti!
