Upon hearing Luo Fei ask about Miss Tang,
Old Han couldn't help but worry.
"Luo Fei, I have to say sothing about this. Clearly we're comrades in the sa trench."
"You can't just care about her because Miss Tang is beautiful and wealthy..."
"Hold on, hold on, Old Han, where is this coming from?"
Luo Fei frowned slightly,
getting a bit confused by Han Tiesheng.
But the other party still spoke very seriously.
"Old Luo, am I not stating the truth?"
"...I was looking for Miss Tang to ask if she has an extra place where Lin Qingshan and Su Fangfang can stay for a night."
Luo Fei explained.
This explanation hurled back all the words Han Tiesheng had been ready to say.
"So, I really misunderstood you?"
He awkwardly pulled at the corners of his mouth,
and then handed the phone to Tang Shiyu, whose face was already alternating between blue and white.
"Miss Tang, I just wanted to ask if you have an extra place my friends can stay because it might not be safe for them to go ho tonight."
Luo Fei repeated his request.
Only then did Tang Shiyu calm down,
swallowing a gulp as she spoke.
"Officer Luo, to be honest, I do have a few villas, and one of them is quite close to Lotus Manor. I think it would be better if you arrange for them to stay there. I'll send you the address shortly."
"Thank you, Miss Tang."
As the call ended,
Luo Fei also suggested to Lin Qingshan and others,
"Let's go, Officer Lin. I'll take you to Miss Tang's place. She and Old Han will bring us the keys soon. Also, Su Jianfan, I think it's best if you co along."
But Luo Fei's suggestion,
made Su Jianfan hesitate.
"Brother Fei, the father and daughter have already gone out of their way. Maybe I shouldn't join in the fuss?"
Su Jianfan hesitated,
feeling that it might not be appropriate for him to go.
Yet Luo Fei told him,
"Su Jianfan, I'm asking you to go there not for a vacation. I hope you'll stay near Lotus Manor."
"That way, if soone tries to break in or ruin the scene, you can respond imdiately. This is your chance to earn rit, understand?"
Of course, Luo Fei wouldn't tell Su Jianfan,
another major reason for his arrangent.
He hoped Su Jianfan would act as a bodyguard for Lin Qingshan and the others, a talisman of sorts.
After all, with the title of the son of a sub-provincial leader in An Yuan Province,
even if soone wanted to cause trouble, they would be cautious of him.
Su Jianfan was unaware of this,
only feeling a heavy burden on his shoulders.
"I'll do as you say, and ensure the task is completed!"
After arranging everyone's duties,
Luo Fei joined Deng Wen in a car.
"Sister Deng, you're not still hung up on the past, are you?"
On the road,
Luo Fei asked nonchalantly.
Sister Deng took a deep breath.
"Officer Luo, thank you so much for today."
She suddenly thanked him,
leaving Luo Fei sowhat puzzled.
"Sister Deng, what are you thanking for? I don't quite understand."
Deng Wen, with her cheeks turning slightly red, explained,
"Officer Luo, if you hadn't just now explained the situation clearly and cald down, I might have directly reported it to my superiors and had Lin Qingshan arrested."
Deng Wen spoke seriously.
Her decisive nature made it sothing she would likely do.
Luo Fei, however, smiled slightly and retorted,
"Sister Deng, I bet you still have that thought. After all, it's better to have Lin Qingshan detained than to let him continue investigating this case. He knows too much and could encounter unforeseen danger."
Luo Fei saw right through her thoughts,
making Deng Wen sowhat flustered.
"It seems nothing can be hidden from Officer Luo. You're right. I did have that thought."
"But I understand Lin Team very well. He's the type who will risk everything to investigate a case, disregarding his own safety. So even if we tried to persuade him, it's likely futile."
A tinge of concern flashed through Deng Wen's beautiful eyes.
In fact, she had already forgiven Lin Qingshan.
And understood his difficulties.
Only out of pride would she not speak up about it.
So even noticing this point,
Luo Fei could only console,
"Sister Deng, if Officer Lin were alone, I'd be just as worried as you. But with Officer Su accompanying them, the three of them should be fine."
Deng Wen nodded imdiately,
"Officer Luo is right. Now, the priority is to find as many clues as possible from the body and solve the case quickly."
As they spoke,
the car stopped at the location previously sent by Tang Shiyu.
Before long,
Old Han drove a police car to the front of the villa.
"Officer Luo, here are the keys to the villa."
Tang Shiyu quickly walked over, handing the keys and access card to Luo Fei.
Lin Qingshan also promptly thanked her,
"Miss Tang, really sorry, we didn't expect to inconvenience you."
Lin Qingshan felt slightly embarrassed.
But Tang Shiyu shook her head and said,
"It's okay. Actually, it was my mistake for mistaking you for a criminal earlier, which caused you to not stay at the air-conditioning repair company. Now inviting you to stay at my place for a few days, makes us even."
Tang Shiyu said as she unlocked the villa's digital lock,
and showed Lin Qingshan how to change the password.
"Please co in, everyone."
As Tang Shiyu opened the door,
they saw a spacious and bright living room, a large redwood coffee table, leather sofas on three sides, and there were two bedrooms, not counting the second floor.
