"How old are you?" Ruan Qiqi asked.

She roughly guessed the origin of this Mr. Ruan. If nothing unexpected happened, he should be a relative of the missing Mr. Ruan.

"He's in his thirties, looks expensive, but speaks in a very easy-going manner."

Ah Xiang reported in a low voice that she learned the adjective "quite expensive" from Ruan Qiqi.

A few days ago, we were watching TV together, and a very imposing male actor appeared on TV. Although he didn't look particularly good, he had a strong aura. Ruan Qiqi said that the actor looked very expensive, and Ah Xiang, who loves to study, wrote down this word.

Ruan Qiqi guessed that the man was in his thirties and was most likely Mr. Ruan's brother.

Ruan Zheng, who was sitting in the living room, stood straight with his eyes straight ahead. Although he was not dressed extravagantly and his appearance was not particularly handsome, he gave people the demeanor of a nobleman.

Seeing Ruan Qiqi and the others come in, Ruan Zheng hurriedly stood up and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm Ruan Zheng, I came here without any other choice."

"What is your relationship with Ruan Zhen?"

Ruan Qiqi didn't waste any words and asked directly.

"Ruan Zhen is my cousin. Mrs. Ruan must have known that Ah Zhen has been missing for three days. There are a total of 18 people missing with him, three of whom are Miss Hong Kong contestants."

Ruan Zheng answered very directly without hiding anything.

As soon as he learned that his cousin was missing, he mobilized all of the Ruan family's connections and manpower in Hong Kong and almost turned Hong Kong upside down, but found nothing. The police station said that his cousin was most likely not in Hong Kong.

The police suspected that it was done by the Ruan family's enemies and advised him to wait for a call from the robbers. However, three days passed and he didn't receive a single call. Ruan Zheng couldn't wait any longer.

Although A Zhen is not very capable, he is his uncle's only son and also his cousin. If an accident happens to him, his uncle and aunt may not be able to bear it. Moreover, as a cousin, he will be punished by the family if he fails to take good care of A Zhen.

Ruan Zheng felt like he was living in a year during these three days and he hardly slept. His assistant advised him to find a master to do some fortune telling and also mentioned Madam Ruan, the fortune teller. Only then did he remember that Madam Ruan had a close relationship with his family.

She used to use his family's name and was very popular among Hong Kong ladies. However, this Mrs. Ruan was not offensive. Apart from borrowing his family's name, she did not do anything excessive, so Ruan Zheng did not care.

Ruan Zheng, a staunch materialist, was really desperate, so he came to Ruan Qiqi for help, thinking of giving it his all.

Ruan Qiqi said bluntly: "I just went to your cousin's cruise ship and got a message that Ruan Zhen and his friends voluntarily boarded a large ship and have now returned to Hong Kong. I haven't found the specific address yet."

"How is Ah Zhen now?"

Ruan Zheng asked anxiously.

"It's unclear at the moment, but I should be able to get a reply in three days."

Ruan Qiqi told the truth.

Ruan Zheng's expression darkened, but he still saw hope. Mrs. Ruan was much more powerful than the Hong Kong Police Station. She gave an exact time of three days. The police station here would only shirk responsibility.

"Mrs. Ruan, please make sure to find my brother. No matter whether he is dead or alive, the Ruan family will reward him handsomely!" Ruan Zheng promised.

If he's alive, I want to see him in person; if he's dead, I want to see his body!

"No need to thank me too much. I borrowed your family's name before, so this is just a return of the favor."

Ruan Qiqi smiled. This was what she owed to the Ruan family and she had to pay it back.

Ruan Zheng also smiled and didn't mention it again, but he was planning in his heart to interact more with Ruan Qiqi in the future.

This Mrs. Ruan had a mysterious origin and a strong background. He guessed that she might be related to the inland area. It would be okay to recognize such a relative. It might be convenient for the Lu family to invest in the inland area in the future!

"Mrs. Ruan, I have a guess. I wonder if it has anything to do with Ah Zhen's disappearance." Ruan Zheng hesitated for a long time, but still said it out loud.

"Tell me about it!"

"Here's what happened. You may have heard about the vampire case in Nanyang. It caused a lot of trouble last year. People were in a panic, but the police still haven't caught the mysterious murderer."

Ruan Zheng took out an envelope from his briefcase. There were more than a dozen photos in it. He handed them over and said, "These are photos of the deceased. They are a bit scary."

Ruan Qiqi took it. The first photo showed a man who had been sucked dry. He looked like a skeleton wrapped in human skin. His eyes were sunken like two black holes, but there was a peaceful smile on the corners of his mouth.

The other photos are similar. The dead have all turned into mummies with smiles on their lips, as if they have seen angels. There is no fear or panic on their faces, as if they are heading to heaven.

"Were they all killed by vampires?" Ruan Qiqi asked.

"Yes, when the forensic doctor performed the autopsy, he found that the blood in the bodies of the deceased had been almost sucked dry, and there were bite wounds on the necks, which was especially like the legendary vampires. However, one-third of the victims were killed during the day, so the local police believed that the murderer was a super pervert who fed on human blood."

Ruan Zheng talked about the Nanyang police's inference, and said: "Ah Zhen was almost killed. Last year, he and his friends played in a dance hall until midnight. On the way home, he met the murderer. His friend died. Ah Zhen ran fast and survived, but he was left with a psychological trauma, so he ran to Hong Kong to live. Unexpectedly, he got into trouble again."

Ruan Qiqi finished looking through all the photos and asked, "Do you suspect your brother has run into that perverted murderer again?"

"I'm guessing. Does Mrs. Ruan believe in your sixth sense? When I knew about Ah Zhen's accident, my sixth sense told me that Ah Zhen's disappearance was closely related to that perverted murderer. My sixth sense is very sharp and has never been wrong."

Ruan Zheng was just guessing at first, but when he heard Ruan Qiqi say that eighteen people voluntarily boarded the ship, he was 70% to 80% sure. No one could do it except that perverted murderer.

"I believe in myself. Give me three days. I will tell you whatever the result is."

After saying that, Ruan Qiqi stood up and went out to find someone.

"Thank you, Mrs. Ruan and Mr. Lu. This is my phone number. You can call me anytime!"

Ruan Zheng handed over his business card. He had already turned down several important trips and would never leave Hong Kong until he found his cousin.

After seeing Ruan Zheng off, Ruan Qiqi called Xia Tao and Gan Defa and asked them to go look for someone as well.

"Vampires? Impossible. They can't possibly go to the South Seas. They don't like the weather here."

Xia Tao ruled out vampires immediately; it definitely couldn't be these lazy guys.

"How do you know they don't like the weather in Nanyang? Have you talked to them?" Ruan Qiqi asked curiously.

"We fought once, but they are not as powerful as the legend says. They are quite unlucky. They cannot go out during the day and can only go out to look for food at night. They dare not eat human blood for fear of being hunted down. They only dare to eat the blood of mice and rabbits. When they are really greedy, they go to the hospital to steal blood bags to eat."

Xia Tao curled her lips, her tone full of disdain, saying that those who are cowardly will become extinct sooner or later.
