Perhaps he accidentally discovered so crucial clues while taking photos in the restroom.
Li Yu had to take a deep breath.
"Mr. Luo is right. Speaking of which, we haven’t had a al since we arrived."
"How about we go downstairs to eat sothing first? There’s no rush to check the situation later."
It seed the two were about to leave just as they arrived.
Ah Runji suddenly felt a bit panicked.
"Mr. Luo, did I say sothing wrong just now, or did I do sothing incorrect, which made you unhappy?"
"If I made a mistake, I am willing to apologize. But you can’t ignore this case; after all, our local police station hasn’t made any progress in the investigation. If you don’t take charge, this case might remain unsolved."
Seeing that he was a bit embarrassed, a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
He feared that offending him might result in the case remaining unsolved.
Luo Fei, however, shook his head with a smile.
"Manager, you did nothing wrong. I’m just really hungry."
"And you probably already heard. The two of us ca to Rob Island not for official business. We’re here on a tourist visa. You should be aware of that."
Luo Fei’s words.
Made Ah Runji almost instantly embarrassed.
"Mr. Luo, you’re right."
"Then how about this, wait until you’ve had your al, and then co back to check the situation?"
Seeing that Ah Runji was a bit hesitant.
Luo Fei agreed with a smile.
"Alright."
Hearing him finally agree.
Ah Runji breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"Mr. Luo, with your assurance, I’m completely at ease."
Ah Runji had previously watched an interview of Luo Fei.
He knew very well in his heart.
Luo Fei was quite extraordinary.
He now saw Luo Fei almost as his only hope.
"Mr. Luo, were you in such a hurry to leave because you found sothing in the restroom?"
"Are you avoiding Ah Runji to not reveal too much information prematurely?"
After a while, as Li Yu and Luo Fei ca outside.
Li Yu saw Luo Fei seed contemplative, as if hesitating to speak.
Luo Fei, however, smiled and asked back.
"Li Yu, if I told you, Mrs. Lin never actually entered that room, would you believe it?"
Luo Fei suddenly saying this.
Left Li Yu a bit stunned.
She thought she must have misheard.
"Mr. Luo, what did you say?"
"Li Yu, I’m not joking. I’m serious."
As Luo Fei spoke, his tone was serious, and his expression was very earnest.
"From the sll that room emitted when we entered, and the arrangent of the toiletries. It seems that Song Qingyu’s mother, Mrs. Lin, might never have been in that room."
Actually.
Although earlier, when they went to Song Qingyu’s ho, Mrs. Lin’s ho was in disarray, a complete ss.
Luo Fei had still deliberately observed Mrs. Lin’s bedroom.
This allowed him to understand her daily habits and the order of items in her ho.
And in that room just now.
Since Mrs. Lin and her husband left.
The bed hadn’t even been made.
Because there were still two days left until they were officially due to check out when the unfortunate incident occurred.
The local police imdiately sealed off the room.
This allowed the scene inside the room to be completely preserved.
But this result.
Greatly surprised Li Yu.
"How is this possible? A few days ago, wasn’t Song Qingyu’s stepfather, Luo Qingping, posting on social dia and even with Mrs. Lin together..."
But the next second.
She recalled what Song Qingyu had previously said.
She said: all the photos of her mother and stepfather didn’t show their faces.
Most were from behind or in profile.
Li Yu realized the problem.
"Mr. Luo, do you an to say that actually, from the mont they arrived on the island, Mrs. Lin had already been kidnapped."
"Or simply, she never ca to the island?"
"Exactly."
Luo Fei said, showing Li Yu a social dia post.
When he clicked on what seed to be a still image, it was actually an animation.
As he opened it, the person slowly turned their head.
It turned out to be a local of Rob Island, with typical Southeast Asian features.
At that mont.
Li Yu finally understood.
Why Luo Fei had been so nonchalant earlier.
He didn’t even bother to seriously look for clues in the bedroom.
"Mr. Luo, in that case, the person kidnapped on the island later wasn’t even Song Qingyu’s mother, but soone who looked very similar to her?"
Luo Fei gave a noncommittal nod.
"You’re correct."
"From the evidence we have so far, we deduce Mrs. Lin likely encountered danger even before boarding the plane, possibly on the way to the airport."
"And my judgnt isn’t based solely on Song Qingyu’s words. More importantly, Mrs. Lin was ticulous when placing her toothbrush normally. But this ti, it was done carelessly."
"Moreover, she usually liked to position the hairdryer’s nozzle facing down. But this ti, it was casually placed on the table. It was wholly inconsistent with what a thodical and ticulous homaker would do."
After listening to Luo Fei’s explanation.
Li Yu realized.
The opponent was quite accurate.
Not to ntion anything else.
Because Mrs. Lin had lived alone with her daughter for many years, it had only been the last two years that she started looking for a new partner.
For over ten years before that, she had been incredibly self-disciplined, thodical, and ticulous in all matters.
These habits more or less influenced her daughter.
In such a situation.
It was unlikely she would easily change her original way of doing things or habits.
Even going out on a date was the sa.
"Mr. Luo, you’re amazing."
"But if that’s the case, even if we stay on the island, we might not be able to find any clues, correct?"
Li Yu knew very well.
In such cases, it was seldom the act of a lone individual.
It’s usually a group.
So the focus of the investigation should be dostically.
The driver who took Mrs. Lin and her husband to the airport was highly suspicious.
He was most likely colluding with Luo Qingping.
But Luo Fei smiled and said.
"Li Yu, look over there, who do you see?"
Following Luo Fei’s gesture.
Li Yu suddenly saw.
On the wall of the restaurant where they were currently, hung several photos.
Above it was written: "Best Employee of the Month" in large letters.
And in the photos below.
There was soone.
It was the sa middle-aged lady who ca to Rob Island with Luo Qingping.
This made Li Yu a bit excited.
She hurriedly called over an employee of the store.
"Excuse , is that lady part of your staff? What’s her na, and is she currently here?"
Hearing Li Yu’s question.
The other party was a bit awkward.
Explaining with slight embarrassnt.
"Hello ma’am, that lady is nad Liwa. But since taking ti off a few days ago, she hasn’t returned to the store. Even her phone can’t be reached. We all presud she found a better opportunity and left."
At this mont, Luo Fei had already found the girl’s social dia profile.
"Liwa, live-streaming singer."
"Age: 43 years."
"A professional extra by day, she can also serve as a local guide. Works in the restaurant at night."
Seeing these words.
Luo Fei gave another noncommittal nod.
"It’s definitely her. We just don’t know where she is now."
"Could she have possibly left the country..."
Before Luo Fei could finish.
The piercing sound of police sirens wailed.
This made Li Yu’s expression turn slightly serious.
"Hello, you must be Mr. Luo and the one beside you, your officer Miss Li?"
Upon hearing the sound, they saw an Asian female officer looking their way.
With skin of healthy, wheatish hue.
Luo Fei gave another noncommittal nod.
"Hello, I am indeed Luo Fei."
