This was a peaceful era where the majority were kind and straightforward.
Who would have known that she would encounter a terrorist who pretended to be from building management who made use of the excuse to enter a house? They did all of these just to check out the bathroom for leaks, but their real motive was to install a biochemical device.
While they were engrossed in talking about this issue, Huang He appeared in the group chat.
He pinged Fang Yuanyuan. “What happened? Why didn’t you tell me about it?”
Fang Yuanyuan replied playfully. “…≧_≦! I asked all of you not to talk about this!”
Huang He responded, “… So, what happened?”
Fang Yuanyuan evaded the topic and continued being playful instead. “Honey, I’m alright. Everything’s fine, so don’t worry! I’ll be back tomorrow morning.”
Huang He replied thereafter, “I’ll pick you up at the airport.”
Fang Yuanyuan was quick to respond. “(>c
Huang He replied, “I’m discharged from the hospital this afternoon.”
Fang Yuanyuan responded, “Alrighty!”
Salimu suddenly butted in. “My mouth is full of dog food! Attention everyone, if you notice any beautiful girl aged 18 to 25 years old with a nice figure, gentle, and has a good character, please introduce her to me… I can take one to two of them.”
Quan Shaoteng appeared out of nowhere as well. “Who did you learn that from?”
Salimu replied swiftly, “You!”
Quan Shaoteng replied confidently, “You can scram now… You’re so young and wanted to learn from others to ‘adopt’ girls? Just like what you said above, I can ‘adopt’ eight of them!”
Fang Yuanyuan just sent an ellipsis as a reply. “…”
Tang Yuanchu did the same. “…”
Mei Xin then decided to reply. “In the autopsy room of the forensic institute, eight is probably too many, but there should be one or two there. It’s kept fresh with formalin. Age, figure, and appearance are good… The most important thing is that their character is especially gentle.”
Quan Shaoteng replied weakly, “… Hey sister, you’re too mischievous!”
Nobody else bothered him.
Nobody liked it when the atmosphere was suddenly quiet.
At that moment, it was exactly like that…
It was all quiet in the group chat.
The best awkward silence creator of the century—Quan Laowu.
…
That night, everyone was at Serious Crime Division One.
Ever since Fang Yuanyuan packed all of her belongings from Bai Muchuan’s house, she daren’t step inside anymore.
She stayed in a hotel that night.
As for Xiang Wan, she was busy looking for her cat.
Blackie’s gone missing.
During that time, the windows near the scratching post were not latched fully, Xiang Wan suspected that the kitty might have escaped through there.
She pasted the ‘missing cat posters’ at the neighborhood and also posted in her WeChat Moments so her contacts could help to disseminate the information… Nevertheless, she didn’t receive any news that day.
That kitty belonged to Yu Bo, and Xiang Wan brought the cat back all the way from Nanmu to Xi City, then Jin City before finally arriving in the Capital. She had kept Blackie with her for a while and wished that she could get the cat back.
Nonetheless, Xiang Wan was actually not a full-fledge cat lover.
Even so, when she lost Blackie, she couldn’t feel at ease.
In fact, she felt really awful to have lost the cat.
Bai Muchuan consoled her. “Think of it differently. It’s a good thing that Blackie escaped. It proves that he’s very much alive.”
If Blackie had not left the house, then maybe… he would have died.
Xiang Wan rubbed her temples and puffed a sigh. “How are the two police officers?”
She was referring to the two police officers who arrived at the scene earlier than them and entered the bathroom for a check.
Bai Muchuan shook his head. “They’re still unconscious—their condition is quite bad.”
As he said so, he placed his hands gently on Xiang Wan’s shoulders. “It’s fortunate that you’re alert. Otherwise, things would have been worse.”
The two police officers felt sick after they entered the bathroom in less than two minutes. They were mortified and quickly left the bathroom; they then informed the command center immediately after… If Xiang Wan had not sensed that something was amiss, what would happen when both Xiang Wan and Bai Muchuan returned home that night?
“That bathroom is the common one.” Xiang Wan furrowed her eyebrows. “If it’s not Fang Yuanyuan, it would be Xie Wanwan…”
Bai Muchuan nodded. “They used a small biochemical automatic spray which is small and meant for smaller spaces like the bathroom.”
“If their aim was not Xie Wanwan,” added Xiang Wan, “they might have wanted to give us a warning. They’re really an audacious bunch of people!”
When she said the word ‘audacious,’ she got reminded of Ye Lun.
