Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Long Night
In the brightly lit main house of the Lu family, all the children of the family sat together and set their eyes on the main seat.
Ji Yuwen sat on a sandalwood chair, crossing Erlang's legs while drinking tea. He was holding a stack of white paper in his hand, which was a document about Chen Yan that the Lu family quickly prepared for him.
After scanning it a few times, he put down the information and closed his eyes and pondered.
Chen Yan was the first suspect after his second brother's disappearance, but his intuition told him that the mastermind behind the scenes was definitely not Chen Yan.
The reason is very simple, this guy named Chen Yan was inconspicuous in the first two years of his marriage to Lin Jiajia, but he only showed his grandeur when the woman was about to dissolve the marriage.
A person who is so good at forbearance and dormancy will never provoke the behemoth of the Ji family for the sake of a momentary mood.
But if it weren't for him, it would be very intriguing.
The Ji family has a great reputation and many enemies. But many people are careful to hide their hostility, and they can't talk about doing anything to the second brother at all, they don't have the guts.
Ji Yuwen once saw the hotel where Ji Yuwu stayed, the house was in a mess, and there were blood stains on the ground.
Although the second brother is arrogant, he is not a fool. If he was able to open the door and bring in the man, it means that he was not wary of the comer. And Uncle Jin, who was next to him, was one of the best in the army, and being able to defeat him without leaving any time showed the other party's preparation...... Very adequate.
With careful preparation, the scene will never be a mess, which is not in line with the aesthetics of crime.
Ji Yuwen's eyes narrowed.
In a word...... Let's find out the situation with that friend named Chen Yan first.
A line of expensive supercars drove out from Houhai in Kyoto, and rushed to Wanxian Tower in a long snake formation, attracting passers-by to watch and exclaim.
Chen Yan didn't expect Ji Yuwen to act so quickly. He was resting with Yan Tianming on the top floor of Wanxian Tower, when he suddenly heard a commotion downstairs.
Chen Yan glanced outside with his ghost eyes, and saw more than a dozen children of the family who had heads and faces in Kyoto walking towards him with a calm face, and the leader was even more with his hands behind his back, with extraordinary momentum.
Yan Tianming's mobile phone rang, and after he connected it, there was a shout from Gu Ye inside: "Yan Shao-they went up!"
"Who?" Yan Tianming's face changed, and he was about to scold, but he heard a burst of laughter like a spring breeze outside.
"Hahaha, Tianming, long time no see. β
Hearing this voice, Yan Tianming's face changed, and he hurriedly glanced at Chen Yan.
Chen Yan ignored his reminder, and just like that, the old god sat on the chair, intently looking at the jade pendant in his hand.
The door of the restaurant on the top floor was set back, and a group of people walked in, led by Hao Hao Tang Tang, with his hands on his shoulders, and his appearance was five points similar to Ji Yuwu.
"Brother Yuwen, why don't you tell me when you're here!" Yan Tianming was overjoyed and stood up to greet him.
Ji Yuwen waved his hand and said with a smile: "There is no need for this kind of politeness between you and meβthis is Brother Chen Yan, right?"
Yan Tianming hurriedly said: "Brother Yuwen, you don't know, my brother is a strange person. The first time we met, he could tell at a sight that I was sick, and thanks to him, you wouldn't have seen me again. β
"Oh?" Ji Yuwen was slightly stunned: "There is still such a thing?"
He looked at Chen Yan with a solemn face: "Since you are Tianming's life-saving benefactor, then naturally you are also kind to me, Brother Chen, although Yuwen has no strength in Kyoto, but if you encounter any trouble in the future, even if you come to me, I will definitely help." β
Ji Yuwen saw the jade pendant in Chen Yan's hand again, and looked at the different lines painted with the snow and looking for plums, his eyebrows raised slightly, and he calmed down.
Chen Yan noticed his strange appearance, he took back the jade pendant, and said lightly: "Ji Yuwu was not tied by me. β
As soon as these words came out, the originally bright hall of spring instantly fell silent, and everyone looked at Chen Yan and Ji Yuwen.
Ji Yuwen was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "I know." β
Chen Yan was slightly stunned, puzzled: "Since you know, what are you still looking for me for?"
Ji Yuwen's next words surprised everyone.
He found a chair, walked to Chen Yan's side, and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, I'm here to ask you for help." β
Help?
Chen Yan seemed to have heard the ridiculous words of the world, he smiled rarely, and asked rhetorically: "I don't remember that my relationship with Ji Yuwu is so good." β
"I have no intention of knowing about your relationship with your second brother. Asking you for help is my personal meaning. Ji Yuwen explained.
After hearing this, Chen Yan said with interest: "What do you want me to help with?"
Ji Yuwen said with a solemn face: "Some time ago, there was a woman who often haunted the second brother, and on the day the second brother disappeared, the woman named Ye Xiaoye also disappeared. I didn't find any information about her. Someone saw you talking to Ye Xiaoye at the Lu family that day, you must know her, right?"
Leaf leaflets?
Chen Yan said: "We just chatted about the elders we met, and to me, she was just a stranger. β
Seeing that Chen Yan's expression did not seem to be fake, Ji Yuwen smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Chen said that he didn't know, that is, he didn't know." Alas, the clue was finally broken, so we went first and went back to continue looking for the traces of Yuwu. β
After speaking, he glanced at Chen Yan meaningfully, turned around and walked out of the restaurant.
......
"Ji Shao, is what Chen Yan said true or false?" After going out, one person said curiously.
Ji Yuwen looked ahead expressionlessly, not knowing what he was thinking, he said: "It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the reason why I came to him is actually just to confirm one thing." β
After speaking, he recalled Chen Yan's facial expression during the previous conversation.
When he heard that Ye Xiaoye was missing, although he covered it up well, his slightly clenched fist still revealed what he was thinking, but his answer after that was very different from his performance.
He confessed the content of his conversation with Ye Xiaoye, and bluntly said that he didn't know the other party - in fact, these are all in the information, even if he doesn't say it, Ji Yuwen can see it clearly.
In other words, it is normal for Chen Yan not to say it, since he said it, it shows that he is sure that Ye Xiaoye has nothing to do with Ji Yuwu's kidnapping, so his previous body movements are very intriguing.
Actually, there is another possibility......
Bite.
The elevator doors opened quietly.
The orange light of the electronic lamp sprinkled on Ji Yuwen's hideous smiling face.
Chen Yan...... Know who the real kidnapper is!!
