Chapter 431: Discovery
"Dead?" Jack's voice couldn't help but raise.
"How is that possible?"
"I just got the message." Bai Wu spoke in a deep voice.
"Whose hand did it? Where did the accident happen? Jack asked two questions in a row.
"I don't know, I just got the news that I used to put a device on Eliza, and as soon as her heart stops, I will have an alarm here. Just now the alarm went off. Bai Wu's expression was cold.
"Eliza's suspicions are not cleared now, and she is still our helper, I want to know who is so bold as to dare to kill me."
Jack was taken aback by Bai Wu's cold tone.
"I want you to investigate for me in country A to find out what happened to Eliza. Also, I need you to see what kind of ghosts, snakes, and gods are out of country A, daring to stir the water like this. β
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
Hanging up the phone, Jack's face was rarely serious. Eliza is dead, and he hasn't found Eliza's shadow in country A.
He hurried downstairs, and when he came down, he met Winnie and Li Xue sitting in the living room, occupying a sofa on one side, each playing with their mobile phones.
Seeing Jack's footsteps hurrying down, the two of them looked up at the stairwell at the same time.
"You two are here."
"Jack, which little lover are you going to meet in such a hurry?" Winnie quipped.
"There's no time." After Jack finished speaking, he looked at Li Xue on the side, "You may have to go out with me." β
"What's wrong?" Seeing Jack's serious expression, Li Xue also asked with a straight expression.
Jack glanced at Winnie on the side and didn't speak.
"Oh, you're still avoiding me? What a shameful thing. Winnie raised her voice, she wasn't interested, but the more Jack hid it like this, the more curious she became.
"It's none of your business."
"Spoiled." Seeing that Jack didn't want to speak, Winnie complained.
"I thought we were a family here, and we could help a little bit, but I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."
"What kind of person?"
Suddenly, a voice interjected from the side.
Everyone looked at Byron who came in from the outside, and turned their heads in unison.
"I said they we're still hiding something here." Winnie spouts at Jack Nunu.
Byron looked at Jack, who was getting dressed on the side, "Going out?" β
"Hmm." Jack nodded, "Something's wrong, so I need to investigate." β
"Need help?" Byron walked to the living room and sat down.
Jack turned to the sofa next to Byron and sat down, "Bai Wu just called and said that Eliza was dead, let me investigate." β
Byron raised an eyebrow, "Dead?" β
"yes, it didn't take long to happen. But you know that I haven't been in country A for a long time, and now I haven't even found Eliza's shadow, so it's too difficult for me to investigate, so I need your help. β
"That woman died quickly, and my revenge has not yet been avenged." Winnie on the side said with some indignation.
Jack was silent, knowing a little about Winnie and Eliza's feud with him.
And Byron had been silent since he had finished speaking.
"Now I need to find out what happened to Eliza and then find out what happened to her."
Jack looked at Winnie to the side, "You're the last person to see her, do you know where she went?" β
"You doubt me?"
"We're just investigating." Li Xue on the side said.
"But my gut told me you doubted me."
"It's possible for anyone now, not just to suspect you, but the last time you saw her, the most suspicious."
Facing the gaze of the two people, Winnie only felt very angry in her heart, when Eliza was alive, she would forget it, and if she died, she would not be allowed to live in peace.
"It's not her." Byron, who was on the side, suddenly interjected.
"You know?"
The eyes of several people all looked at Byron, Byron's expression remained unchanged, only Winnie was thoughtful.
"She must have been captured by the Will family." Looking at Jack, who was looking at him suspiciously, Byron continued to speak: "After all, I am now the head of the Mussen family, and this matter can still be investigated." β
Byron looked at Jack and raised his hand to stop what he was about to say, "I'm just saying a general direction, you can investigate the specifics yourself, Winnie and I won't interfere." Bai Wu should also mean this, right? β
"You know?" Jack raised an eyebrow.
"I guess so." Byron got up and looked at the people, "If it's okay, I'll go up first." β
Winnie glanced at the two of them, said hello and followed upstairs, since Byron must have a reason not to interfere, there must be no problem with following this fox himself.
Only Li Xue and Jack were left in the living room.
"What do we do next?"
"According to what Byron said, investigate first, I don't think there should be anything wrong." Jack said.
Next, the two divided labor, and the nimble Li Xue went to the Will family to investigate. Jack, on the other hand, continues to look for news about Eliza.
Since Bai Wu asked them to come here to investigate, it was to let them be independent and investigate independently, and it was not good to involve Byron and them too much.
After agreeing on the plan, the two went their separate ways to implement it.
Li Xue began to want to disguise herself as a person to enter the Will family, but she didn't expect that the inside was heavily guarded, and people with a raw face couldn't approach it at all. So she decided to sneak in in the dead of night.
Finally got into the evening, Li Xue looked at the heavily guarded villa area, wearing tights, carefully avoiding the patrol team and climbing over the wall.
As soon as she landed, she noticed several figures coming not far away, and quickly flashed into the shadows on the side.
"I think I just saw something." One said confusedly.
"You're dazzled." The other person interjected, and then said: "I see that you are nervous, this is obviously a tight life, how can anyone come in casually." β
"Don't say that, we are so heavily guarded, the eldest young master is not yet under attack." The other party made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Okay, okay, what the young lady said in the future is reasonable, and you must strengthen your vigilance."
A few people said and walked farther and farther.
When the people left, Li Xue came out of the shadows, looked at the surrounding monitors, and carefully avoided them.
The black figure wandered through the garden, carefully searching for the center with the memory of the Will family's map.
In the living room, Eli and Lu Ling were talking to Lu Ran, maybe they were older, Lu Ran was a little sleepy, so they left to rest first.
Lu Ling returned to the bedroom and turned on the monitor as usual to see if anything had happened today.
When she saw a spot outside the Will family's villa area, Lu Ling frowned and hurriedly moved the mouse to enlarge the image.
The picture shows the back of a woman, and the black clothes almost blend in with the night.
But with her unforgettable skills and excellent eyesight, Lu Ling still saw at a glance that the person was Li Xue who was swaying.
"How did she get here?" Lu Ling called up several surveillances around her at the same time, and through a few fleeting afterimages, she discovered her intentions.
She turned off her computer and opened the door to go out.
Because Li Xue wanted to avoid the surrounding surveillance and patrols, it was already an hour later when she found the villa of Eli and others.
She didn't dare to alarm others, so she climbed up to the second floor cautiously and found Eli's study by the light.
At this time, Eli was dealing with things in the study, his subordinates stood under him, and Li Xue stood on the handrail of the balcony outside the window and listened carefully.
Just when she was listening, a cat on the windowsill next door suddenly rushed over, causing Li Xue to slip under her feet, and when she was about to make a sound, she covered her mouth tightly, and at the same time changed her landing posture, and there was a rattle in the bushes.
"Who?"
Eli looked out the window sensitively, walked to the window and pushed it open.
People patrolling the vicinity of the villa also rushed over.
Li Xue held her breath and crawled motionless in the lush bushes.
Just as she heard the footsteps around her getting louder and louder, the cat that had fallen with her suddenly stepped on her back and jumped out.
"Meowβ"
"It turned out to be a cat." A patrolman said.
Eli saw that there was nothing unusual around him and closed the window.
Li Xue, who was lying on the ground, felt that she was in a cold sweat, fortunately the cat was alert enough, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
After lying on her stomach for a long time, Li Xue got up when she saw that the silence had returned to her surroundings.
The night was getting deeper, and many of the surrounding rooms were dark.
Li Xue carefully touched Eli's study, Eli had already left, it was dark inside, opened the door, and rummaged through his desk for a long time without getting any news about Eliza, she couldn't help but be a little anxious.
The sound of Eli making a phone call came from next door, and when she heard the other party say the word study, Li Xue suddenly felt bad, and hurriedly closed the file and ran out.
The lock of the door next door had already been turned, and Li Xue didn't have time to react, turned off the light on the wall, and flashed into a room at the same time.
It was dark inside, and just when she breathed a sigh of relief, a pair of hands suddenly covered her mouth, and Li Xue's eyes widened in horror.
"It's me." The two words fell softly to her ears, Li Xue turned around, and through the light outside, she saw Lu Ling's figure hidden in the dark, and Li Xue gave up struggling.
Outside, Eli noticed that the lights in the hallway were turned off, and she sensed that something was wrong.
He was about to have someone check on him, when Lu Ling came out of a nearby room.
"Lu Ling?" Seeing the shadow, Eli asked uncertainly.
"Well, it's me." Lu Ling said, "Have you seen Dabai?" I looked for it for a long time and didn't find it. "Dabai is a cat.
"I just fell into the bushes." Eli said.
"It's useless if you turn the lights off, it won't come to you. Or I'll have someone look for you? β
"Forget it, let's look for it tomorrow." Lu Ling yawned.
"Then you rest early. I went to the study to take care of some things. β
Lu Lingmu sent him to the study, and then returned to the bedroom just now, where Li Xue was really waiting.
"Why did you suddenly come to the Will family?"
"Let's investigate."
"What's the matter?" Lu Ling asked suspiciously.
Li Xue was silent.
"If you don't say it, I think you'd be more than willing to tell Eli." Seeing that Li Xue wanted to hide it from herself, Lu Ling was in a very bad mood.
"No, it's fine." Li Xue briefly talked about Eliza's murder and the fact that she came to investigate.
"The Will family is different now, you have to be careful everywhere. There are a lot of surveillance videos, and you have to avoid a few major ones, and the patrolling people will stagger the time for you to find loopholes yourself. After telling Lu Ling, he was ready to leave.
"Why help me? Isn't Eli your fiancΓ©? Li Xue asked.
