Chapter 384: Who is hiding in the dark!

The word "death" sprayed with red paint looked particularly glaring and hideous in the dim underground parking lot.

Like a poisoned invitation from hell.

Shi Runrun was so frightened by this sudden change that her whole body went limp, and the huge teddy bear toy in her hand fell to the ground with a "bang".

Her face turned pale in an instant, without a trace of blood.

Xiao Xue Zheng, who was standing beside him, also had a gloomy expression in an instant. In his deep black eyes, a storm was gathering, brewing a rage that was enough to destroy the world.

But it was different from the sudden outburst of rage in the cinema just now.

At this moment, he was unusually calm.

It was the suffocating silence before the storm.

His first reaction was not to check the damage to the car or to look for the murderer.

Instead, he stretched out his long arms and grabbed the little woman beside him, who was so scared that she could hardly stand, and protected her tightly behind him.

His tall figure was like a solid wall, shielding her from all danger and malice.

His sharp eyes scanned the empty and quiet parking lot vigilantly.

After confirming that there was no hidden danger around, he took out his cell phone and called Qin Feng.

His voice was eerily calm, without any emotion in it.

"check."

"Dig the man out for me."

He only said two sentences, and every word was filled with cold, unquestionable murderous intent.

Qin Feng on the other end of the phone was obviously shocked by his sudden order and the anger in his tone.

"Boss Xiao, what happened?"

"Also," Xiao Xuezheng didn't answer his question, but added, his gaze falling on Shi Runrun's pale face, his voice even colder, "Get rid of this car."

"I don't want my wife to see it again."

After hanging up the phone, he turned around and looked at the little woman who was still in shock.

He didn't say anything, but just bent down, picked up the dusty teddy bear on the ground, and then took her cold hand.

"Let's go home."

Qin Feng's efficiency is astonishingly high.

In less than ten minutes, the surveillance video of the parking lot was retrieved and transmitted to Xiao Xuezhen's mobile phone.

After returning to the villa, Shi Runrun was supported by Sister Li and sat down on the sofa, drinking warm water to calm her nerves, her heart still pounding.

Xiao Xue Zheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the living room, watching the surveillance video over and over again with an expressionless face.

The video shows that when they were going to the movies, a man wearing a black hoodie, a mask and a baseball cap appeared stealthily next to their car.

He took out a sharp dagger and a can of red spray paint from his pocket and started destroying the car body crazily.

The whole process took only two minutes.

After doing all this, he quickly disappeared into the blind spot of the surveillance.

He had obviously planned this in advance and deliberately avoided all high-definition cameras, leaving only a blurry, unrecognizable back.

"Boss Xiao, this guy is very professional and has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities," Qin Feng reported on the phone. "We checked his route and found that he changed transportation several times and finally disappeared in an old urban area without any surveillance."

"The phone card he used was also an anonymous black card."

All the clues are broken.

"Keep investigating." Xiao Xuezheng's voice was as cold as ice. "Even if you have to turn the entire city upside down, you must find this person for me."

Shi Runrun sat on the sofa, listening to his cold instructions, the uneasy feeling in her heart becoming stronger and stronger.

She always felt that this matter was not that simple.

It's not like an ordinary revenge caused by business competition.

That blood-red word "death," that warning filled with resentment and malice...

It made her uncontrollably recall those bad, dark memories from four years ago that she had deliberately buried.

Her body began to tremble slightly uncontrollably.

Xiao Xue Zheng ended the call and turned around to see her frightened look.

His heart ached, and he walked over to her with his long legs and sat down.

He didn't say anything, but just reached out and held her tightly in his arms.

He knew that she was thinking about the past again.

He knew that this incident had aroused the deepest fear in her heart.

He didn't say any words of comfort because he knew that any language would be pale and powerless at this moment.

He just used his body temperature and his steady and strong heartbeat to silently convey strength and a sense of security to her.

He wanted to let her know that this time, he was here.

He would never let her face any storm alone again.

That night, the security level of the Xiao family villa was directly raised to the highest level.

The number of bodyguards around the villa, both openly and secretly, doubled.

Xiao Xue Zheng even personally rechecked and upgraded all the security systems in his home.

He used the most direct and domineering actions to build an impenetrable and safe wall around her.

But even so, Shi Runrun still had a nightmare.

She dreamed of the sudden car accident four years ago.

I dreamed that I was alone, lying on a cold hospital bed, feeling desperate and helpless.

She screamed and woke up from her dream, her whole body soaked in cold sweat.

"Runrun! Runrun! Don't be afraid!"

A pair of warm big hands pulled her back to reality from the nightmare.

When she opened her eyes, she met the man's deep black eyes that were filled with worry and heartache.

Only then did she realize that he had not slept at all. He was leaning against the head of the bed, guarding her all night.

"I... I had a nightmare." Her voice was still filled with tears.

"I know, it's okay, it's all a dream."

The man held her whole body in his arms, patting her back gently as if he was coaxing a frightened child.

"No one can hurt you while I'm here."

He paused, then gently placed his big hand on her still flat belly, his voice becoming a little deeper.

"No one can harm our children."

Shi Runrun nestled in his warm arms, smelling the pleasant cedar scent on him. Her heart, which had been beating wildly due to the nightmare, finally calmed down bit by bit.

She knew that this man was her most solid support in her life.

The next morning, new news finally came from Qin Feng.

"Boss Xiao, we have a clue."

"explain."

"Although we haven't found the person who did it, we were able to locate the last time his anonymous phone card sent a signal through base station positioning."

"Where?"

"It's near...Kyoto University."

Beijing University?

This place name made Xiao Xuezhen and Shi Runrun stunned.

The target is the school?

Several people's faces flashed through Shi Runrun's mind in an instant.

Is it the teaching assistant, Su Zhe, who was publicly humiliated by Xiao Xuezhen at the academic conference?

Would he do something so extreme out of jealousy and unwillingness?

Shi Runrun shook his head, but felt that it was not similar.

Although Su Zhe is somewhat aloof and proud, he does not look like someone who would use such despicable means.

Is that... Lin Weiwei?

The so-called campus talent who was slapped in the face by her in public?

Or was it the rich second-generation guy named Lin Ze who harassed her in the cafeteria before and was later sent away by Xiao Xuezhen with money?

For a moment, the fog was thick.

"Go check." Xiao Xuezheng's voice was cold and devoid of any warmth. "Investigate these people's recent whereabouts and relationships thoroughly."

"Yes, Mr. Xiao."

Qin Feng took the order and did it immediately.

But what no one expected was that the results of the investigation pointed in a direction that no one could have imagined.

That afternoon, Qin Feng called again, with a hint of solemnity in his voice.

"Mr. Xiao, we have checked Su Zhe and that Lin Ze. They have been very well behaved recently and there is nothing unusual."

"However, when investigating the girl named Lin Weiwei, we made an unexpected discovery."

"What did you find?"

"Her family background doesn't seem to be as simple as she appears to be."

Qin Feng paused before slowly saying the name that made Xiao Xuezheng's pupils shrink suddenly.

"Her father's name is Lin Jiandong."

"He's the chairman of Hongyuan Group, Guangzheng Group's biggest potential business rival in the new energy project in the south of the city."
