Chapter 168 Feng Nan's Thoughts

Yueyang is incredibly busy right now.

It could even be described as being in a complete mess.

The shooting case is now completely unsolved.

Even Chen Dongsheng's background is impossible to ascertain.

The surveillance videos along the street didn't even capture a glimpse of the gunman.

Chen Dongsheng is like Sun Wukong, who sprang from a crack in a rock.

His life experiences in the first half of his life are impossible to trace.

It was as if he had suddenly appeared out of thin air in Tang City.

Now Feng Nan is calling him again, and Yueyang had a bad feeling the moment he answered the call.

Something must have happened to Feng Nan again.

Otherwise, Feng Nan would never have called at this time.

[Yueyang: Another incident?]

Yueyang skipped the pleasantries with Feng Nan and went straight to the point.

He's so busy right now that he doesn't have time to spare, so he doesn't have the energy to beat around the bush with Feng Nan.

[Feng Nan: Brother Yue, something's happened here.]

[Feng Nan: The gunman who shot and killed Chen Dongsheng in the street yesterday came to my house.]

[Feng Nan: They also took the girl I rescued from the lab.]

[Feng Nan: The girl left behind a backpack, which I just glanced at; it was a bag full of guns and ammunition.]

[Feng Nan: I now suspect that the girl is in cahoots with the gunman. Bring your men over quickly.]

Feng Nan planned to send both Qianqian and Cheng Lihua inside.

It's always safer inside than outside.

If Cheng Lihua is one of my mother's people, her recent appearance means she has been exposed.

Sending them in there means you won't have to worry about being hunted down by the lab's people all over the world.

Moreover, it is a fact that Cheng Lihua shot and killed Chen Dongsheng in the street.

They had already broken the law, so it was justifiable to arrest them.

If Cheng Lihua works in the lab, sending her in would save Feng Nan a lot of trouble.

It's a win-win situation, and Feng Nan thinks it makes perfect sense.

The same applies to Qianqian.

Sending Qianqian in with them is also a form of protection.

And it also reduces a potential threat to Feng Nan himself.

After all, Feng Nan is still unsure whether Qianqian is a friend or foe.

Feng Nan originally wanted to thoroughly investigate Qianqian, but before she could do so...

Qianqian then started hanging out with Cheng Lihua.

It also left her with a backpack full of big trouble.

It was really difficult for Feng Nan to treat Qianqian as one of his own.

[Yueyang: What?]

Yueyang's exclamation came through the phone receiver.

Feng Nan detected three parts surprise, three parts shock, and four parts joy in Yue Yang's voice.

[Yueyang: Are you serious?]

[Yueyang: How can you be so sure that the person you're talking about is the gunman who shot Chen Dongsheng?]

After the initial shock, Yueyang asked the question that had been on his mind.

Although Yueyang trusted Feng Nan a lot, he was still a little hesitant to believe her.

After all, they reviewed the surveillance footage from the entire street but still couldn't find the gunman.

They don't even know if the gunman was male or female.

How could Feng Nan be so sure that person was a gunman?

Yueyang had a lot of questions in his mind.

[Feng Nan: I saw the gunman that night.]

Feng Nan's words were always surprising, leaving Yueyang speechless with just one sentence.

Feng Nan had already prepared his explanation, so he wasn't afraid of Yueyang's questioning.

[Yueyang: What!]

This time, Yueyang's voice rose eight octaves once again.

[Yueyang: Why didn't you say so sooner when you saw the gunman?] [Yueyang: Do you know how much trouble your concealment has caused for the investigation?]

Just as Feng Nan had predicted.

After the initial shock, Yueyang launched into an angry interrogation.

Feng Nan fully understands Yueyang's anger.

Anyone would be angry in that situation.

However, since Feng Nan had already anticipated this, she had already prepared her response.

[Feng Nan: Brother Yue, I'm innocent!]

[Feng Nan: Do you know who the gunman is?]

[Feng Nan: Her name was Cheng Lihua. She died in the lab accident along with my parents.]

[Feng Nan: I was injured that night, and when I saw her, I thought I was seeing things.]

[Feng Nan: And when I returned to the hotel from the Major Crimes Unit early this morning, I saw her. She looked like a ghost; it terrified me.]

[Feng Nan: It wasn't until I got home today and saw the surveillance footage that I was certain Cheng Lihua was alive.]

Feng Nan pretended to be aggrieved as she held the phone and complained to Yue Yang that she had been frightened by Cheng Lihua.

Upon hearing Feng Nan's words, Yue Yang on the other end of the phone fell silent.

The scene of Feng Nan's ordeal flashed through Yue Yang's mind.

The scene was so beautiful that even Yueyang himself found it a bit eerie.

Put yourself in their shoes.

Because of his profession, he saw a dead person appear before him.

The first reaction would be suspicion, and the subconscious would be to chase after it to see what was going on.

But for an ordinary person, the first reaction would be quite different.

Fear should be the first reaction.

Although Feng Nan is a special advisor to the Major Crimes Unit, he is, after all, an ordinary person who has not received any training.

Given that I was injured at the time, it's understandable that I thought it was an illusion.

It's understandable to be scared if you encounter it a second time.

Thinking about all this, Yueyang wasn't so angry anymore.

[Yueyang: Wait for me at home. Protect the weapons. We'll be there soon.]

After saying that, Yueyang hung up the phone.

Feng Nan put away her phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

She knew she had gotten through this.

Fearing that Qianqian and Cheng Lihua might return, Feng Nan activated the Golden House's security system to its maximum.

As long as there is any disturbance within a certain range, she will immediately receive an alert.

Only after making all the preparations did Feng Nan feel relieved.

Sitting in the monitoring room, copying the surveillance video of Cheng Lihua appearing and Qianqian leaving, while waiting for Yueyang and the others to arrive.

It's already 5 p.m., right in the middle of the evening rush hour.

Feng Nan estimated that it would take Yueyang and his group at least an hour and a half to arrive.

There were few cars on the road in the early hours of the morning.

If you drive fast, it takes about half an hour to get there.

During the day, if it's not rush hour, it takes about an hour.

During rush hour, it takes at least an hour and a half.

This means that Feng Nan needs to ensure that nothing unexpected happens during this hour and a half.

At the very least, the backpack containing the weapons must not have any mishaps.

If that backpack gets lost, that would be a real problem.

If it gets leaked, we'll lose that bag of weapons.

It will absolutely cause social panic.

Feng Nan got up and took the backpack to the monitoring room.

Although confident in the security system of the Golden House, Feng Nan still felt uneasy if he didn't keep an eye on the backpack all the time.

I'm afraid that this backpack might suddenly disappear at any time.

Time was passing by, second by second.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye.

beep beep-

Just as Feng Nan was idly playing a mobile game, the alarm of the anti-theft system in the monitoring room suddenly went off.
