The woman's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

She looked at the three of them, forcing a smile on her pale, bloodless face, and said, "You...you must have misunderstood? I really have nothing to do with this case!"

Guan Feng said, "Where's your ID card? Let's check it first!"

The woman trembled again and looked at Guan Feng, saying, "Why do you need to check my ID?"

Guan Feng said, "We still don't know your name. Isn't it the right thing to investigate every tenant and transient person?"

The woman reluctantly went back to the cabinet and found her ID card in her bag.

Guan Feng caught a glimpse of the closet filled with stockings, lingerie, and other items that hadn't yet been put away, which made him even more certain of the other person's identity.

The woman turned around and handed over her ID card.

Guan Feng looked over and saw that the other person's name was Li Xue, from Sucheng next door.

He asked, "What are you doing here?"

Li Xue said embarrassedly, "I was hoping to find a class to attend, but I haven't found one yet."

Guan Feng said, "If you want to work in a factory, wouldn't Suzhou or Jincheng be more suitable? Why did you come to Hua'an?"

Li Xue said, "I used to work in Suzhou. My ex-boyfriend, whom I met here, came here through his recommendation."

Guan Feng thought of the tenant's information and asked, "What's their name?"

Li Xue looked at Guan Feng awkwardly and said with difficulty, "He's my ex-boyfriend, we have no relationship. What are you investigating about him?"

Guan Feng decided to cut to the chase and asked directly, "Why do you think we found you?"

Li Xue said, "Didn't you just say someone was missing?"

Guan Feng frowned and said, "Not only that, but someone also complained that you're involved in illicit activities!"

Li Xue froze, a flash of panic crossing her eyes, before she quickly regained her composure and said, "No, no way! Who said that? How could I possibly work in that kind of industry? Isn't this pure slander?"

Guan Feng said, "Whether it's true or not, there are surveillance cameras on the stairs. As long as we retrieve the customer information, do you think all of them will deny it? As long as even one person admits it, plus your transfer records, these things are just a matter of a thin veil separating them!"

Li Xue said helplessly, "Why are you all so serious?"

Guan Feng said, "Are you admitting to engaging in that kind of behavior?"

Li Xue retorted angrily, "I didn't steal or rob. If I can't survive, what's wrong with starting a business? Who does it bother? Those men are all single. What's wrong with them taking care of their own needs? Why make such a big deal out of it?"

Guan Feng said, "The discussion about why this matter is illegal may involve philosophical questions. If you want to know, you can search on the website. It may be more reasonable than my answer. Now we are here to ask you, do you know Shi Juan?"

Li Xue's expression changed slightly. She looked at Guan Feng as if observing his expression, and after a moment shook her head and said, "I... I don't remember."

Guan Feng casually reminded you, "Let me remind you again, she lives downstairs from you, on the same floor."

Li Xue's expression began to falter, and she said, "I... I think I remember."

Guan Feng asked, "Where did you hide her?"

Li Xue shook her head and said, "I really don't know! I didn't do anything!"

Guan Feng then solemnly reminded her, "Li Xue, I need to remind you now that what you did before was only a violation of public security regulations and an act that went against public morals and good order, but it didn't reach the level of criminal liability. However, the disappearance or even death of a person is a criminal offense! At that time, you will not only face legal sanctions, but you will also spend the rest of your life in jail!"

Li Xue's expression turned even more unpleasant.

She shook her head and said, "I...I really don't know?"

Seeing that the other party was determined to hide it, Guan Feng cut to the chase and asked, "What is your relationship with Wang Tong?"

Li Xue's expression changed slightly, and she said, "Yes, he is my ex-boyfriend."

Guan Feng asked, "Did he rent this house too?"

Li Xue nodded and murmured, "Yes, yes."

Guan Feng said, "Since you said he's your ex-boyfriend, why would he rent you a place? Is he a saint?"

Li Xue shook her head and said, "Actually, that's what he does, so I was called over to help him."

Guan Feng: "???"

Others: "???"

Everyone present was completely dumbfounded.

They were ex-boyfriends and girlfriends, after all. Why would you drag someone into doing that kind of thing?

No normal person's thought process could accept this!

Guan Feng put aside these thoughts and asked, "What exactly happened the night before last? Why did you have a conflict? And where did you take Shi Juan?"

Li Xue stammered, "No, I didn't do it."

Guan Feng said, "You didn't do it? Then what are you hiding? If it has nothing to do with you, you should expose it and reveal the truth. As long as people are safe, there is still hope! But if people are dead, Li Xue, let me tell you, whether you are the mastermind or an accomplice, you cannot escape responsibility!"

Startled by Guan Feng's words, Li Xue realized the danger and asked, "What kind of punishment will I be given for this?"

Guan Feng said, "It depends on how much you participate."

Li Xue quickly said, "I didn't actually participate; I was just watching from the sidelines."

Guan Feng patiently persuaded him, saying, "Whether you participated or not is not up to you to decide; it depends on your specific actions. You should explain your role in this matter as soon as possible."

Li Xue hesitated for a moment, but finally gave in under Guan Feng's questioning gaze and said, "I...I confess! But I really wasn't involved."

Guan Feng immediately emphasized this point again.

Seeing that Guan Feng was getting impatient, Li Xue quickly blurted everything out: "You, you don't need to say anything, I, I understand, I'm just a little scared. The night before last, Wang Tong came to me drunk."

"It doesn't matter who I pick up, it's not like I'll miss him. Besides, he's the one who rented the house for me, so I'll let him in."

Guan Feng asked, "Did you get paid in the end?"

Li Xue said softly, "When it was over, he gave me 200 yuan and told me to go out and have a good meal sometime. He also said that he would recommend me to his company if I had any big clients in the future."

Guan Feng asked, "What happened next? How did the conflict with Shi Juan arise after everything was over?"

Li Xue sighed and said, "It's all over now. Shi Juan rushed up and banged on the door. Wang Tong asked me who it was. I said it must be someone from downstairs. I thought the noise was too loud. I had come here once before. Wang Tong's expression was a bit off then. He had a wicked smile on his face and said that being loud was a man's nature. He looked quite smug."

"I quickly pulled him back and told him not to cause trouble, but that's just the way Wang Tong is. He can't hold back his temper. When he heard Shi Juan knocking on the door again, he went and started arguing with her."

Guan Feng asked, "If it was just an argument, why did the kidnapping happen?"

Li Xue sighed and said, "This is really just a coincidence!"

Guan Feng and the others listened patiently.
