Chapter 7: Deeply Hidden
TL: LazyHooman
When they arrived at the hotel, Li Yi had not returned yet . Zhuang Han was sitting alone in the hall with one of his hand supporting his chin, his face showed a somewhat tangled look, seeming to be thinking about something .
When he saw w.a.n.g San and Yu Su, he quickly stood up and smiled, “You’ve returned, did you find anything?”
w.a.n.g San didn’t speak, Yu Su nodded and smiled, “We found some clues . ”
Zhuang Han did not continue asking . After a little hesitation, he told them, “When I heard the knock disappear last night, I wanted to take a look, but Li Yi said it was dangerous and prevented me from coming out… I was a little timid, so once she warned me, I didn’t dare to come out .
Later, when you two were looking for clues, neither she nor I went outside . I know I did the wrong thing, so I’m not shameless enough to ask you for clues before, but I just found something useful in the hotel . If possible, I want to exchange clues with you . ”
Yu Su still had a good impression on this seemingly honest and simple man, but the clues in her possession weren’t found by her alone . After listening to him, she turned to look at w.a.n.g San and inquired, “Big Brother, what do you say?”
w.a.n.g San went to the central table and sat down . He stared at Zhuang Han for a while, then nodded in agreement, “Alright . You first . ”
Zhuang Han smiled and immediately answered, “Yesterday, we searched all over the hotel, yet there’s one place we’ve forgotten, Xue Mei’s room . At that time, her body was still inside . I didn’t dare to step inside at all, so I went to search it today and unexpectedly found a cell phone under the bed . ”
As he said that, he pulled out a very old cell phone from his trouser pocket . It was a brand that was released a long time ago . The quality was very good, to the point it could open a walnut .
“The most amazing thing was that it can still be turned on . ” Zhuang Han pressed the unlock b.u.t.ton, pressed the keyboard several times in succession to bring up the messaging interface, then he handed the phone to w.a.n.g San
Yu Su walked behind w.a.n.g San and saw the content of the text messages .
The earlier messages were filled with ambiguous flirting words, later the words became more and more unrestrained, then it often became inappropriate . Those contents were alternating with normal conversation . Yu Su quickly realized the owner of this cell phone was Xiao San .
What made Yu Su even more amazed was that this Xiao San turned out to be the best friend of w.a.n.g Yan .
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
As can be seen from the content of the text message, Xiao San stayed at the hotel with the excuse of visiting her good friend . On the surface, she and w.a.n.g Yan showed great bond of sisterliness, but in private, she contacted Cha Nan and often looked for opportunities to meet secretly .
Xiao San even sent a text message to Cha Nan in the middle of the night . Cha Nan slipped out of his room and went to Xiao San, who was in the opposite room . After a tryst with Xiao San, he quietly returned to his room .
In the meantime, w.a.n.g Yan was kept in the dark and treated Xiao San as her close confidant, completely unaware of what the other party was doing in the dark .
In the text messages, Xiao San addressed w.a.n.g Yan as “stupid woman” and “cheap woman”, and also repeatedly told Cha Nan to quickly solve w.a.n.g Yan in order to seize the hotel .
As for the meaning of “solve”, it was obviously not divorcement . Otherwise, it was impossible to seize the hotel .
w.a.n.g San pressed the back b.u.t.ton and opened the photo alb.u.m . The first one was a selfie of the short-haired woman in the arm of Cha Nan, they were both lying on a bed .
“That’s what I found . ” Zhuang Han said, “What do you think?”
Yu Su and w.a.n.g San looked at each other and opened their mouths to give a rough overview of all the clues .
So far, the story was clear .
Probably because it was an off-season for business, there’s barely any guest and the Proprietress decided to accompany her sister that day .
w.a.n.g Yan found out of Cha Nan’s derailment that night . She must be struck hard by the truth because Xiao San was her best friend, and the text messages even mentioned they were going to get rid of her to seize her property . There must be a fierce quarrel and a big fight between her and Cha Nan .
According to w.a.n.g Yan, Cha nan was drinking wine that night . Perhaps he also suffered as a son-in-law, so under the stimulation of alcohol, he went to the kitchen and took a kitchen knife to cut w.a.n.g Yan down .
From the content of the text, Xiao San was staying here when that happened . With the basis of the knock at midnight, it was obvious that w.a.n.g Yan asked for help when she was being chased .
There were very few tourists or perhaps none at all, so the one w.a.n.g Yan pleaded for help should be… This Xiao San .
The result was obviousーXiao San didn’t open the door .
No one knows what happened after w.a.n.g Yan died tragically under Cha Nan’s knife .
After Proprietress learned the truth, it was unknown what plan she used to successfully captured Xiao San and tortured her in the kitchen .
The stove generally wasn’t placed in the middle of the kitchen, thus she should’ve specifically asked for someone’s help to move the stove into that position, all for the sake of her revenge .
Now, the question isーWhat happened to Cha Nan?
