Chapter 266: Uninvited Guest
"Get your hands off the way!" Lu Jingfan twisted the man's hand behind him again, and the violent pull made the man grin and scream.
"You're not... I really don't know what happened to Zhang Yingying? Seeing that his anxious appearance didn't seem to be deliberately disguised, Bai Xiaohan began to suspect that his previous speculation was wrong.
"Please, tell me." The man slowly lowered his head and said in a trembling voice.
Normally, the murderer usually defends himself at the first time, but the man in front of him is bent on wanting to know Yingying's whereabouts, he may not be the murderer.
"Two years ago, she disappeared at the resort, and her body was only found a week later by hotel staff."
"Corpsesβ" the man's eyes widened and his sockets reddened, "You mean, Yingying... He's dead? β
Bai Xiaohan was silent for a moment and continued: "After Zhang Yingying disappeared, no one reported the case, and the hotel concealed this matter for the sake of fame. It wasn't until a few months ago that a fired hotel security guard informed the police about the incident. β
"Ying Ying is dead... She's dead..."The man was still immersed in the shock brought by the girl's death, and he didn't hear what Bai Xiaohan said later.
"Mr. Yuan, can I find out what the relationship between you and Zhang Yingying is?" Bai Xiaohan asked.
"Yingying and I..."The man looked at Bai Xiaohan a little embarrassed, and then continued after a while: "In the summer of two years ago, I came to Yangshan Hot Spring Resort on official business and met her here. β
Several people were silent, waiting for the man to continue.
"To be honest, I did fall in love with Yingying at first sight, and spent a short good time with her here," the man's eyes became gentle,
"The night before I was leaving, she suddenly disappeared. The mobile phone was turned off, the luggage in the room was not packed, and the person disappeared inexplicably. β
"Why didn't you call the police at the time?" Bai Xiaohan asked.
"Probably because of a weak heart... I'm worried that calling the police will expose my relationship with her," the man whispered, "and I don't know much about her. β
"So, you haven't contacted Zhang Yingying since you returned to K City?"
The man nodded and said, "Until half a month ago, I received an anonymous letter sent to my company. The person who wrote the letter said that he would wait for me at the villa, so I immediately thought of Yingying. β
"And then you're going to bring your wife with you to see your lover?" Lu Jingfan couldn't help but mock.
The man lowered his head in embarrassment: "I can't help it, if I come alone, I will definitely be suspected by my wife." And I didn't plan to renew my relationship with Yingying, I just wanted to confirm that she was okay. β
Bai Xiaohan thought for a while, and then asked, "Has there been anything unusual about your wife lately?" I mean, after coming to the resort. β
"She's a little suspicious, but she's suddenly in a good mood this morning, probably because we're leaving this place."
"This morning," Bai Xiaohan thought thoughtfully, "Mr. Yuan, you have to find a way to convince your wife to stay one more night, otherwise there may be trouble." β
"What's the trouble?" The man's face turned pale.
After Bai Xiaohan explained the reason why the mother and daughter came to the resort hotel, the man's eyes widened in disbelief: "How can there be such a strange thing?" You cops... Can you even catch tricks? β
"Based on what I said alone, Mr. Yuan may have great doubts, you might as well go back and observe your wife more, maybe you will find more abnormalities."
The man left the room suspiciously and walked apprehensively towards the hotel lobby.
"Honey, can we take the car home?" The wife looked shy, and affectionately grabbed the man's arm.
A strange aroma wafted into the man's nostrils, and he knew full well that his wife never wore perfume, but the smell had a familiar tinge.
It was the aroma in his memory, and the man suddenly shuddered, and some did not dare to look at the woman next to him.
"Wife, just now the hotel manager told me to apologize and let us stay here for one more night for free. Anyway, I've not been busy lately, so it would be nice to relax for a few more days. β
"But there are still police officers handling the case here, how inconvenient is it for us to stay, and what if we are treated as suspects again?" As she spoke, the woman slipped into the man's arms.
The man stiffened and replied, motionless, "I heard that the case has been clarified, but it was all a misunderstanding. β
"Really?" The woman raised her face and looked at the man with a pair of gentle and affectionate eyes.
"Of course," the man tried his best to keep the smile on his lips, "don't you want to make romantic memories with me too?" β
The woman was stunned for a moment, and then a trace of bitterness appeared in her eyes, and she muttered, "You really... Forgot everything? β
"What?" The man didn't hear what she was saying clearly.
"It's nothing, let's stay longer." The woman lowered her eyes, the corners of her mouth slightly curled.

At 11:50 p.m., Bai Xiaohan held a small bronze mirror in his hand, waiting for an opportunity.
"This kind of small scene, I am enough alone," Lu Jingfan raised his eyebrows, "Xiao Hanhan, you just stand by and watch the show." β
"No, you're too violent." Bai Xiaohan rejected Lu Jingfan's proposal.
"Don't care about those mortals," Lu Jingfan said disapprehantly, "It's simple and rude, there's nothing wrong with it." β
"She's disgusted that you're making too much of a fuss." Mr. X said coldly.
"Are you all disgusted with me?" Lu Jingfan looked at Bai Xiaohan and then at Mr. X, and finally his eyes were on Star Swirl, "Kitten, what about you?" β
"You just saw it." Star Swirl makes a mischievous face at him and ducks behind Mr. X.
Lu Jingfan was just about to have a seizure, and then he heard Bai Xiaohan say: "It's almost time, let's go." β
The group came to the door of room 1103 and rang the doorbell.
"Who is it so late?" The woman asked, confused.
"I'll take a look." The man was overjoyed, as if he had finally waited for a life-saving bell, jumped up from the bed and went to open the door.
"What's the matter with you?" The man opened the door and winked at Bai Xiaohan, as if to say, "Help, help me!" β
"We want to talk to your wife." Several people walked into the room unceremoniously.
The woman looked at several "uninvited guests" in surprise, and asked with a calm face, "What are you doing when you break in so late?" β
"This lady, should we call you Zhang Yingying?" Bai Xiaohan said in a deep voice.
"Did you recognize the wrong person?" The woman squeezed out an ugly smile with a strange expression, but her nails were already clasped into the gap between the edge of the bed, making a clattering sound.
"It's better to let you see what you really are." Bai Xiaohan aimed the bronze mirror in his hand at the woman's face.
The eyes can't help but fall on the mirror, and the person in the mirror seems to have walked out of the painting, with the charm of a classical oriental woman, but there is a faint trace of eccentricity.
