Chapter 26 Not before, not that night
Could it be that something is going on?
Luo Nian walked out with his mobile phone, relocked the door, and carefully observed the door lock, and there was no trace of human destruction.
Lan Xuan's phone was not answered.
Luo Nian called three, all of which were unanswered.
She flipped out the phone number of one of Lan Xuan's colleague Xiaofeng, "Xiaofeng, it's me, Luo Nian." ”
"Sister Niannian, what's wrong?"
"Did Lan Xuan go to work today?"
"Yes, but today she left half an hour early, and she didn't come to our dinner party."
Luo Nian had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Did she say something was wrong?"
"Said there was a guest at home."
But she didn't know which direction to go, Lan Xuan was an agent of a private detective agency, and because of her superb computer skills, she could be regarded as a hacker.
In this industry, it is easy to offend people.
She thought about calling the police and calling them to intervene.
But what if not?
Lan Xuan didn't know if there was anything in Lan Xuan's house that couldn't be seen by the police, and if it was discovered, the matter would become even more complicated.
When Luo Nian came down, he went to the property to adjust the monitoring.
The person in charge of the property said: "You are not a resident of our community, are you?" ”
Luo Nian said: "My friend is a resident here, but she is missing, and I want to check the surveillance to see if there is anything coercive." ”
"If you go missing, you should call the police, and then the police will come to investigate and we will cooperate."
Luo Nian's words have been repeated, the person in charge of this property just doesn't eat hard and soft.
The person in charge of the property sat on a chair, crossed Erlang's legs, bit a cigarette, and was looking for a lighter.
At this moment, a hand handed a lighter from behind.
The lighter clicked and a flame was lit.
The person in charge saw that it was a man who didn't know when he came in.
Luo Nian was also taken aback, what is Xie Jinghuan doing here?
The person in charge of the property raised his chin towards Xie Jinghuan, "What's the matter with you?" ”
The lighter turned around on the tips of Xie Jinghuan's fingers and retracted it into his pocket, "If she has something, I'll have something." ”
The person in charge of the property also couldn't hang it, "It turned out to be a gang, do you think if you light a cigarette for me, I can ask her to watch the surveillance video regardless of the regulations?" ”
"I don't think so."
Xie Jinghuan laughed, raised his hand and grabbed the person's wrist, and with a skill, he stuck the arm of the person in charge on his lower back.
The person in charge suddenly screamed in pain, "I'm going to call the police!" ”
"When the police come, your arm will be off."
Xie Jinghuan raised his chin towards Luo Nian, "Go, flip through the monitor." ”
Luo Nian had never seen Xie Jinghuan such a scoundrel, and when he bit the cigarette butt, he really looked like a gangster.
There was a time number on the monitor, and Luo Nian quickly flipped to the day's, and in the process of fast forwarding, she saw several people coming to the door of Lan Xuan's apartment.
It was Lan Xuan who opened the door herself.
After a few people went in, about half an hour later, Lan Xuan came out with these people, and without any physical conflict, they got on the elevator and left.
"Rewind."
Xie Jinghuan opened his mouth in a deep voice.
Luo Nian rewinded back for another two minutes, and the surveillance video stopped when he just got on the elevator, Xie Jinghuan looked at the person on the screen and squinted his eyes.
The person in charge of the property snorted, "You guys have also seen the monitoring, can you let me go." ”
As soon as Xie Jinghuan let go of him, he rubbed his shoulder blades, "My old bones." ”
Coming out of the property, Luo Nian's heart was even more anxious.
She didn't know about the people on the surveillance, and she couldn't see any grudges with Lan Xuan.
"Hey, do you know anyone on surveillance?"
Xie Jinghuan took two steps forward and raised his eyebrows, "Miss Luo is talking to me?" ”
“……”
Luo Nian directly stopped a taxi and got into the car, leaving Xie Jinghuan behind.
She has something on her mind, she doesn't know who to call when she holds her mobile phone, and she can only burn herself if she is so anxious.
When he arrived outside the Luo family's villa, Luo Nian stayed in the car for a few more seconds, and after thinking about it, there was really no place to find Lan Xuan, so he paid for the car and got out of the car.
As soon as I stepped out of the car door, I was hugged by the man who got out of the car behind me, and then pressed against the telephone pole in the shadows, with the smell of strong alcohol.
Luo Nian smelled the wine in his mouth, don't look away, why didn't he smell the wine in his mouth just now, "Let go." ”
Xie Jinghuan followed her all the way, how could he ask her to slip away now.
The more she struggled, the more she was clenched by the man's wrist.
Luo Nian couldn't stand it anymore, she decisively raised her knees, and kicked towards the man's most vulnerable part, the man avoided his waist and directly used his leg to clamp Luo Nian's waist.
Luo Nian seemed to have expected it, and raised his foot to hook.
Although Xie Jinghuan is a man and has a lot of strength, he just didn't step on the ground, and he was hooked by Luo Nian and lost his center of gravity, and Luo Nian drilled out directly from under Xie Jinghuan's arm.
Who knows, before he could take two steps forward, he was grabbed by Xie Jinghuan by the back collar.
As soon as the collar was pulled, she almost threw up.
Xie Jinghuan didn't show mercy this time, hugged her waist and picked her up, and threw her directly into the back seat of the car.
Luo Nian was dizzy, and before he could get up, Xie Jinghuan had already dropped the central lock, and the car drove away quickly.
Sister-in-law Li came out to throw out the garbage, and she was still listening to the movement outside, but when she looked, a wild cat ran away.
In the car, Luo Nian's breath was disordered, "Xie Jinghuan, are you crazy?" ”
"Nope."
“……”
Can't he tell she's sarcastic? Still answered seriously, she didn't?
Luo Nian crossed his arms and leaned on the seat of the car, "You stop now, you are drunk driving, what if there is a car accident?" ”
"Are you afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid."
"Don't be afraid, I'll be with you."
“……”
Luo Nian felt that Xie Jinghuan was really crazy.
No wonder Lan Xuan said before, in fact, when you fall in love, you are not afraid of breaking up, but you are afraid of meeting someone who is going to die or live to stalk.
Luo Nian had a newspaper in his hand.
The newspaper is the city's social news.
She glanced at it casually, and there was a headline in large characters in Song and black: "The woman was killed by her ex-boyfriend after breaking up, and she was stabbed seventeen times." ”
“……”
Luo Nian looked up at Xie Jinghuan, who was driving in front of him, and just met the man's gaze from the rearview mirror.
"I didn't drink, I just took it in my mouth for a while, you don't have to be afraid of two lives in one car."
Luo Nian rolled his eyes.
She knew that she couldn't break free from Xie Jinghuan now, so she simply stopped being useless, turned her head to look out the car window, and thought about Lan Xuan.
Lan Xuan has been cooperating with the investigation of a case recently, it seems to be quite confidential, could it be that someone wants to kill her?
Xie Jinghuan didn't know where he was going, it was dark, and he didn't stop until he reached the mouth of an alley.
"Where is this?"
Xie Jinghuan had already opened the car door, he picked up a bag from the passenger seat, took out a wine bottle from it, and took a sip of wine.
"I'm really drinking this time, go back and you drive."
Luo Nian glanced at him, and immediately wanted to turn over the driver's seat, but he was halfway through the action, only to see that the car key had been pulled out.
Xie Jinghuan stood still leaning against the car door, the key in his hand throwing a sleek arc upward.
Luo Nian followed and got out of the car.
There is a street lamp at the mouth of the alley, the light is yellow, and there are small flying insects flying around.
Luo Nian followed Xie Jinghuan towards the low bungalow inside, and saw a sign at the corner of the street that read "Cut Water Lane".
A bright light flashed through her mind.
"Is there an underground casino here?"
"You know?" Xie Jinghuan raised an eyebrow.
Luo Nian saw it in Lan Xuan's study.
She had been eating and living in Lan Xuan's house a few days ago, and when she had nothing to do, she went to the study to take out two books to read, and once saw the surveillance video on Lan Xuan's computer, which is the name of the street.
She asked Lan Xuan where this was, and Lan Xuan specifically pointed to a surveillance video in the upper left corner of the computer, "Underground casino." ”
It was exactly the same as what Luo Nian saw in Lan Xuan's computer.
Xie Jinghuan stopped in front of a dark blue roller shutter.
Luo Nian glanced up at the signboard above, XX Machinery Maintenance.
Xie Jinghuan put one hand in his trouser pocket, took out a cigarette to bite, leaned against the door as if he had no bones, and then buckled the door.
Luo Nian observed Xie Jinghuan carefully.
He was different from his usual suits and leather shoes, and today he wore a casual white T, plus a pair of light blue jeans and a black jacket over it.
The hair was not styled, and it was very messy and stood on end.
It seems that there is another kind of unruly ruffianism.
The roller shutter opened from the inside, and a small man with a bit of thief eyebrows stuck out his head, "Repair the car?" ”
Xie Jinghuan bit his cigarette and said indistinctly: "I was introduced by Brother Kun to play." ”
The little man looked like a thief and got out of the way, but when Xie Jinghuan walked forward, he blocked Luo Nian, who was following behind.
"Who is she?"
Xie Jinghuan had already hooked his hand, pulled Luo Nian into his arms, and looked at him contemptuously, "My horse." ”
Luo Nian: "......"
She didn't refuse, followed Xie Jinghuan's side, and asked in his ear, "Do you think Lan Xuan was brought here?" ”
Xie Jinghuan glanced at her, "How do you know I'm here to find Lan Xuan?" ”
"And what are you doing here?"
"Gambling money," Xie Jinghuan pinched Luo Nian's buttocks, squinting his eyes and spitting a puff of smoke on her face, "Pick up a girl." ”
Luo Nian immediately grabbed Xie Jinghuan's moving hand and clubbed his elbow on his lower abdomen.
Xie Jinghuan was not annoyed, he took Luo Nian's hand and grabbed it in his hand, "Give your husband some face." ”
Luo Nian glared at him.
From the outside, it looks like an ordinary mechanical maintenance shop, but if you go inside, you walk past a warehouse, and when you go down, there is no such thing as a cave.
Inside, it was smoky, and under the bright lights, there were tables one by one, and there was a row of slot machines against the wall.
This kind of place does not mean that it will not be investigated, if you dare to do so, there must be some way.
Xie Jinghuan first went to buy a thousand yuan of cards, and led Luo Nian to a card table, where the simplest bet size was played.
Xie Jinghuan bit the cigarette butt obliquely, "Bet big." ”
The middle dealer shakes the dice, and finally throws three, two, three.
Luo Nian couldn't hold back his laughter.
Originally, looking at Xie Jinghuan's appearance, I thought it was a sure win.
Xie Jinghuan hooked Luo Nian's neck and kissed her on the lips, "What do you say to guess in the next game?" ”
Luo Nian endured it for a few times before he didn't wipe his mouth, "I won't." ”
Xie Jinghuan wiped the corners of her mouth with his fingers, "The lipstick is spent, go to the bathroom to make up for it." ”
Luo Nian's mind moved, "Okay, then I'll come over later." ”
She turned around with her makeup bag and asked for directions to the bathroom.
This is Xie Jinghuan giving her the opportunity to take a look casually, whether she can find Lan Xuan, after all, one person's action is much smaller than that of two people.
She went to the bathroom and stayed there for three or four minutes before coming out to touch up her makeup.
She took out a lipstick and put a thin layer on her lips, and she saw a door at the end of the corridor from the bathroom mirror, which opened, and a person carrying a lunch box came out of it, and closed it again.
Need a meal delivery?
Luo Nian thought about it, took the mobile phone and pretended to be on the phone, and walked over slowly.
There was a lock on the door from the outside, it was hung on it, Luo Nian glanced left and right, quickly opened the lock, and pushed open a gap to look inside.
"Lan Xuan!"
Luo Nian lowered his voice and shouted, and hurriedly flashed in.
Lan Xuan sat in the corner, her eyes closed, her face was very pale, she opened her eyes when she heard Luo Nian's voice, and she was very surprised to see Luo Nian, "Why are you here?" ”
Luo Nian walked over and was about to help Lan Xuan, "I went to your house, and the things inside were turned like that, can I not care?" ”
Lan Xuan didn't need any strength on her body, Luo Nian gritted her teeth to help her, she staggered twice, "They fed me a medicine, and now I'm tired." ”
Luo Nian scolded, "Xie Jinghuan is outside, I'll ask him to think of a way." ”
She confirmed that Lan Xuan was not injured, so she went out and found Xie Jinghuan outside, and the cards in front of Xie Jinghuan were almost lost.
Luo Nian twitched the corners of his mouth, and he still wanted to gamble.
She leaned down and whispered in Xie Jinghuan's ear, "I found Lan Xuan." ”
Xie Jinghuan's eyes flashed with a thick black light, and he patted Luo Nian's hand, "I'll come over to accompany you when I'm done playing." ”
Luo Nian looked at the few remaining cards in front of Xie Jinghuan, I'm afraid he has lost it.
Just when Luo Nian was thinking in his heart about how to find a way to take Lan Xuan away from here, suddenly the entire casino hall was quiet.
She thought that she had a delusion, but Xie Jinghuan squinted her eyes, pulled Luo Nian into her arms and sat down, playing with her slender white fingers, biting her ears, "We don't need to figure it out." ”
Luo Nian saw a man coming in from the door.
The man was dressed in black, a black light windbreaker swirled a gust of wind behind him, his eyes were cold, his facial features were not as warm as Xie Jinghuan's, deep and cold, and even the silhouette was like a blade.
This person Luo Nian has seen.
That night at the door of Lan Xuan's house, she knocked on the door twice and came to open the door twice, a wild man raised by Lan Xuan.
A red-haired man in charge of the security of the casino heard the news and ran over, trotting, still holding a cigarette in his hand, "Huo Ye, which gust of wind blew you here." ”
Huo Feng's eyes sank, and he waved away the cigarette handed by the red-haired man, "What about her?" ”
The red-haired man was almost stumbling when he was pushed, and when he stood up straight, he laughed again, "Huo Ye, who are you talking about?" ”
Huo Feng's eyes were already sinking and couldn't sink any longer.
He paused and walked closer to the red-haired man.
This kind of coercion made the red-haired man feel a sigh in his heart, and he was almost out of breath.
He stepped back, retreated to the front of the table, there was no way to retreat, and laughed, "Huo Ye, we have something to talk about...... Whew......"
Before he finished speaking, he was picked up by Huo Feng with one hand and threw it on the card table behind, and the mahjong tiles and cards on the card table fell to the ground with a bang.
The red-haired man got up and rubbed his sore shoulder, "Are you going to openly turn your face with the sixth brother!?" ”
A person ran over in the corridor and whispered a few words in Huo Feng's ear.
Huo Feng hooked his lips coldly, "Turn your face or not, please." ”
He strode towards the third corridor on the right side of the hall, the door at the end of the corridor was wide open, and he saw Lan Xuan in the room, leaning silently in the corner.
He directly leaned over and hugged Lan Xuan horizontally.
Lan Xuan's eyes opened a slit, "Why are you here?" ”
"I'm not coming, waiting to go back and collect your body?" Huo Feng sneered.
Huo Feng strode out of the inside with Lan Xuan in his arms, and there were already a few people blocking the door in front of him.
They all have guys in their hands, and they look extremely vicious.
Huo Feng's eyes flashed, "If you have something, just talk about it, tell you sixth brother, if you want to do something, come to Lao Tzu, don't use this kind of indiscriminate means against the old woman." ”
Lan Xuan had already seen Luo Nian, and she shook her head invisibly.
Luo Nian didn't stand up, just watched Lan Xuan being taken away.
She and Xie Jinghuan came out of the smell of smoke from the underground casino, and it was already half an hour later.
She called Lan Xuan, but Lan Xuan's mobile phone was still not working, and she couldn't help but be a little anxious.
"Huo Feng won't hurt Lan Xuan, you don't have to worry."
"Who is he?" Luo Nian asked.
Xie Jinghuan tapped his index finger twice on his temples on both sides, "People on the road." ”
In the car, Xie Jinghuan told Luo Nian.
In City C, there is a distinction between the south city and the north city, the boss of the north city is Gu Qingcheng, the biggest nightclub is opened by him, and he is also the president of the Shen family, so he can be regarded as comfortable in black and white.
And in Nancheng, the people who were convinced were all Huo Feng. can fight, and is tough, ruthless, and has clear rewards and punishments.
Huo Feng is pure black, his ancestors have pushed up for three generations, and he is still the leader of the Green Gang.
"Lan Xuan should have caused some trouble in the underground casino herself, but it's not serious, most of them are for Huo Feng."
"Who is the sixth brother?" Luo Nian heard the red-haired man mention it several times just now.
"Those who grab land with him are more unprincipled in their conduct and work, rape and plunder, commit adultery and robbery, do anything in the criminal department, as long as they can make money."
Luo Nian fell silent.
Lan Xuan didn't know how to get involved with these people, but Huo Feng dared to say that Lan Xuan was his woman, and the relationship between the two had definitely reached a very close level.
She sent Xie Jinghuan back to Xie's house first, and when she got to the door, she drove the car and got out of the car, and Xie Jinghuan held her wrist.
"Drive my car and go."
"Forget it, I'm afraid that I will be shot into honeycomb coal by Luo Lijiao's gaze when I get home."
“……”
Luo Nian took two steps forward, turned back again, and knocked on the car window.
As soon as Xie Jinghuan lowered the window, Luo Nian reached in and grabbed his neckline.
But today I wore a T-shirt, and I didn't have a shirt collar to tear.
"I hate two kinds of men the most, one who thinks he is entangled, and the other who obviously has a current and has to have an affair with his ex."
Xie Jinghuan felt funny, hooked the corners of his lips and asked her, "Then what kind of person do you say I am?" ”
"I'm sorry, you're all in charge."
Luo Nian let go of Xie Jinghuan and strode towards the intersection, just as a taxi passed by, she raised her hand.
"I didn't have a relationship with Luo Lijiao."
Luo Nian had already opened the taxi door, and when he heard this, his pupils dilated slightly in surprise, and he turned his head to look at Xie Jinghuan.
"Not before, not that night."
There is no moon tonight.
Only his elongated shadow under the light of the street lamp, lonely, alone.
Luo Nian took a breath and got into the car.
Xie Jinghuan stood still, and the figure he watched in the rear mirror became smaller and smaller until the car turned a corner and was out of sight.
…………
Luo Nian didn't contact Lan Xuan until the next day.
What was sent over was a video call, and Luo Nian saw that the scene behind Lan Xuan was the white wall of the hospital and the infusion hanging bottle, and asked directly: "In which hospital?" ”
Lan Xuan hugged her legs, "It's nothing, you don't have to come to see me." ”
"Send me the location," Luo Nian said, "You know that I am a person who will not give up if I do not achieve my goal." ”
Of course Lan Xuan knew.
Luo Nian's temperament has been like this since she was a child, she used her mobile phone to send Luo Nian a location over, "Passing by Song Ji help me bring a plum blossom cake." ”
Half an hour later, Luo Nian came to the door of the ward with two freshly packed plum blossom cakes.
Unexpectedly, there was another person sitting in the ward.
Huo Feng's whole body was stuck in the sofa, and when he heard someone coming, he lazily raised his eyelids and landed on the plum blossom cake in Luo Nian's hand.
Luo Nian glanced at her, and walked towards Lan Xuan, "It's just baked, it's still hot." ”
Lan Xuan's face was still pale, and her voice was very low, which was the sequelae of the drug, and she needed to be transfused for two days to clear her blood.
Huo Feng frowned and looked over, "What is this?" ”
Luo Nian saw that Lan Xuan didn't mean to answer, so he answered for her, "Plum blossom cake." ”
"Do you like to eat?"
Lan Xuan still didn't speak.
Luo Nian was very strange, "One of her favorite pastries is also like to eat red bean cakes from the Rose Workshop." ”
Huo Feng stretched out his hand to pinch a piece, but was slapped on the back of his hand by Lan Xuan.
"Luo Xiaonian bought it for me."
Lan Xuan directly covered the pastry box.
Huo Feng: "......"
Luo Nian: "......"
Luo Nian originally planned to ask what happened yesterday, but Huo Feng didn't go out, she was not easy to say in front of an outsider.
Ni Duo called again, and Luo Nian simply stood up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, Lan Xuan said, "Luo Xiaonian, don't worry about yesterday's affairs. ”
"Then you ......"
"I'm going to be fine."
Since Lan Xuan said it, then Luo Nian believes that it will be fine.
Luo Nian returned to the company, and Ni Duo re-handed the investigation report of the Green Field Project.
"The one who fled with the money is called Liu Qiang, the one who is now in prison is called Song Ye, the deceased is named Zhang Guodong, and it is his son Zhang Liang who is still in the hospital."
Luo Nian casually flipped through a few more pages, "What about the pension for the deceased?" ”
"The relatives of the Zhang family took it."
"Then the hospital will treat a vegetative person for up to a year for no reason?"
"The ......"
Ni Duo wanted to speak and stopped.
Luo Nian raised his eyebrows, "If you have anything, just say it." ”
