Luke turned and left.

Jack quickly followed.

"Boss, where to next?"

"Lucy's Apartments".

Luke spoke without turning his head.

Lucy's apartment in Seoul is located in a villa area in Gangnam Province.

Like the hospital, which was sealed off by the federal military, Lucy's apartment was also sealed off by federal soldiers.

Jack stopped his car as he drove into the villa area.

next second.

The back door opened, and a young woman wearing jeans and with long black hair got into the car.

Xia Ling greeted Lu Ke as she got into the car.

"Uncle Lu."

"..."

Lu Ke's lips twitched. Looking at Xia Ling, who called him "uncle," he shook his head speechlessly: "I'm not much older than you."

Although he is now the director of the FBI in Los Santos.

But he is the youngest director in the FBI system.

Not yet thirty.

Xia Ling smiled and said, "You and my dad are of the same generation, so it's appropriate for me to call you uncle. If I call you brother, my dad will scold me for being inconsiderate."

Lu Ke shook his head: "It's okay, let's each call each other by our own names. I'll call Wenwu Old Xu, and you can call me Brother."

Xia Ling chuckled and didn't respond.

Jack, driving with his eyes fixed straight ahead, focused intently on driving until he arrived at the entrance of Lucy's villa.

The two federal soldiers standing guard at the gate glanced at the license plate, confirmed it was their base's, and then remained motionless.

Lu Ke got out of the car and, with Jack and Xia Ling who had boarded midway, walked straight into the villa.

The interior of the villa remains exactly as it was at the time of the incident.

Messy.

It looked like they had been in a fight.

but……

Lu Ke knew at a glance that the so-called fight was completely fabricated.

Because the chaotic scene caused by a real fight would never look like this.

"Such an obviously staged crime scene, didn't the police officers in Seoul notice?"

"That's what I said when I saw it."

"and then?"

"The quality of people in small places is just so-so."

"Ah."

Luke shook his head speechlessly, walked straight to the third floor, and pushed open Lucy's bedroom door.

into the eye.

A crib next to the king-size bed in the bedroom immediately caught Lu Ke's attention.

The crib is pink, and there are several strings of jewels hanging on it.

Lu Ke approached and picked up a photo that was covering the bedside table.

Pick it up.

He saw it in the photo: Lucy smiling as she held a baby still in swaddling clothes.

Looking at the photo, Lu Ke couldn't help but smile.

Lucy was the first woman he came into this world.

if you can.

He hoped for a perfect ending with Lucy.

Lu Ke snapped out of his daze and turned to look at Xu Xialing.

"Xia Ling".

"Uncle Lu."

"Those people who were spying on Lucy."

Lu Ke stopped correcting Xia Ling's way of addressing him and simply said, "You're here."

Xia Ling nodded: "We're here, right outside."

Lu Ke hummed in agreement: "Come in."

Xia Ling responded, grabbed the phone, and turned to walk out of the room.

after awhile.

The two federal soldiers guarding the entrance saw three men and three women, locals, walking towards them from a distance.

Xia Ling appeared just in time and walked to the door: "Director Dan wants to see them."

Upon hearing this, the two federal soldiers put the safety back on their guns and nodded.

Xia Ling ushered the three men and three women who had come into the villa, and then led them to Lu Ke, who was in the living room with his back to them, his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery in the backyard of the villa: "Uncle Lu, the people have arrived."

Lu Kemo turned around and looked without saying a word.

The three men and three women also looked at Lu Ke, who had turned around.

Just a glance.

The three men and three women caught Lu Ke's gaze and felt a sharp pain. They couldn't help but look away to avoid burning their eye membranes.

Lu Ke chuckled, sat down on the sofa, and looked at the three men and three women standing there.

"sit."

"..."

"Aren't you going to thank Director Dan?"

"Oh, thank you, Director Dan."

At Xia Ling's prompting, the three men and three women thanked her repeatedly and then carefully sat down on the sofa beneath them.

Jack then handed Luke a glass of bourbon.

After Lu Ke took it, he crossed his arms and stood beside Lu Ke with a serious expression, giving off an imposing aura like a small mountain.

Lu Ke took a sip of the bourbon in his glass, then looked at Xia Ling.

Who was the last person to monitor Lucy?

Xia Ling's gaze went directly to the six-person monitoring team sitting in a row.

The first to speak was a middle-aged man with a center-parted hairstyle, pointing to a man and a woman to his left: "It's Cui Xu and Han Zhihui."

Choi Wook and Han Ji-hye, who were called out, quickly stood up and greeted Lu Ke.

Lu Ke raised his hand slightly without speaking. After the two sat down again, he said directly, "Tell me about the situation before Lucy disappeared that night."

Choi Wook and Han Ji-hye were supposed to be a couple. After hearing Lu Ke's question, they exchanged a glance and then began to describe what they had seen on the night Lucy disappeared.

There were six of them in total who were responsible for tracking Lucy.

Divided into three groups.

Moreover, they are all couples from within the gang. Each couple is responsible for one day, which makes three couples in total. They can take turns, so it's not tiring.

Moreover, this is obviously much easier than the killing missions within a gang.

So these three couples were happy to accept this task.

On the day Lucy disappeared, Choi Wook and Han Ji-hye were in charge of monitoring her.

According to the two, Lucy's movements on the day she disappeared were not suspicious at all.

Moreover, although the two were not monitoring at close range, they had parked their vehicle inside the villa area, where they could see the entrance and exit of Lucy's villa.

According to the two men, they did not see any suspicious persons enter Lucy's villa on the night she disappeared.

"When did the sounds of fighting begin?"

"Three o'clock in the middle of the night."

Han Zhihui replied without hesitation, "I remember it very clearly because Cui Xu and I changed shifts at 2:30."

Cui Xu, who was standing next to him, nodded and said, "Yes, Zhihui and I got out of the car almost as soon as we heard the fighting and ran towards Ms. Lucy's villa."

Lu Ke's expression shifted slightly.

"You went in?"

"No."

"Ok?"

"We were knocked unconscious."

"Knocked out?"

Han Zhihui nodded: "Just as we ran to the villa entrance, someone knocked me and Cui Xu unconscious."

Lu Ke smiled.

Xia Ling took out a phone from her pocket, found a video, opened it, and handed it to Lu Ke: "Uncle Lu, this was recorded by Cui Xu and Han Zhihui's dashcam. It captured the person who knocked them unconscious."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ke took the phone that Xia Ling handed him.
