Hua Cheng was so anxious because he couldn't find Qian Lai that he wanted to kill himself.
In his capacity as the secretary-general of the New City Youth Association, he requested the consulate to mobilize all security personnel to seal off the building, control access for people, and promptly report the incident to the police.
Hua Rui was terrified, thinking that Qian Lai was likely in grave danger.
Right now, she has someone she particularly wants to suspect—Fang Wenjie, who just made a scene because of the wine spilled on her.
She noticed that Fang Wenjie had also disappeared after the incident.
The event was not over when he disappeared.
The time they disappeared coincided with the time Qian Lai disappeared.
Isn't that suspicious?
The more Hua Rui thought about it, the more she felt that he was inextricably linked to this matter.
The other guests at the banquet were completely bewildered by the spectacle.
Now that Qian Lai was back, everyone realized that all the commotion was for finding this woman.
Soon, some people began to complain.
"It's so late, and everyone's back, why aren't we allowed to go home yet?"
"Yeah, right! Was she kidnapped or what? I think she walked back by herself. Nobody kidnapped her. Isn't this making a mountain out of a molehill?"
"Sigh, judging from her condition, could it be that she was raped before being released?"
"She stole the show throughout the entire ball. This woman who loves to show off is now reaping what she sowed."
"We can't sacrifice everyone's time just for her benefit, can we?"
"Officer, when can we go home? We don't know what happened to this woman, but what does it have to do with us?"
......
Behind the crowd, in the shadows, a pair of smug eyes watched the people, who had been led astray, vent their discontent.
He wasn't afraid of the police questioning him at all. Because they simply couldn't find any evidence.
"Distinguished guests, please keep quiet. If someone dares to drug someone inside the consulate tonight, things are not so simple."
The consulate official went up on stage to explain the current situation to everyone.
"Everyone must not watch the spectacle with a bystander's mentality. You must understand that we still do not know this person's true purpose."
If it were just a case of a thug persecuting a female comrade, the case would be easy to handle.
However, if it is a spy deliberately creating trouble with the intention of damaging the friendly relations between the consulate and China, then things will not be so simple.
Therefore, I urge everyone to try to recall every detail of the dance just now.
If you have any doubts, please contact our colleagues as soon as possible.
We must not let go of a single clue, and we cannot let the bad guys get away with it.
These words greatly stirred up everyone's emotions.
Some people quickly began to seek out the police officers around them to report the situation.
Liu Shifan, who was standing in the corner, tried to escape in the chaos, but was blocked at the door by Captain Guan Shu and a team of police officers.
"Are you Liu Shifan from the Metropolitan Daily?"
"yes."
“Come with us.”
Liu Shifan gave a sinister smile: "What have I done wrong? I'm just here to attend a ball, invited by the consulate. Why should I go just because you want me to?"
"Liu Shifan, based on reports from the public, we strongly suspect that you are involved in tonight's drugging case. You must cooperate with the investigation."
Guan Shu was experienced, and after just one glance at Liu Shifan, he knew in his heart that the other party was definitely not simple!
"Okay, then let's confront them face to face."
Liu Shifan, looking indignant, shook his head and got into the police car.
Hua Rui helped Qian Lai find a set of casual clothes and accompanied her to the dressing room.
Hua Cheng stood outside the door, pacing back and forth with a pained expression.
"Brother, I think there's someone who's highly suspicious." Hua Rui couldn't hold back any longer and revealed all the suspicious points about Fang Wenjie.
After listening, Hua Cheng also felt that his sister's analysis made a lot of sense.
Adhering to the principle of "better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free," they told Guan Shu about their thoughts.
Xinshi Embassy District Branch.
Liu Shifan was already mentally prepared for all the suspicious points that the police might ask him.
So much so that after a round of questioning, he skillfully defused every single one of them.
"Officer, she says I drugged her. When did I drug her, and what evidence do you have to prove it was me?"
Where is the tool I used to drug someone? There's no evidence whatsoever, just baseless accusations. I won't stand for that."
Every word he said provoked Qian Lai and the others who were eavesdropping from the other side of the wall.
Qian Lai had long anticipated that he might try to distance himself completely.
"Captain Guan, could you let me confront him face to face?"
Guan Shu pondered for a moment and said, "This person is very cunning and definitely not easy to deal with. Are you sure you want to meet him? He's a tough nut to crack and an old rogue. Don't let him say anything disgusting that might offend your ears."
"I've made up my mind. I'm not afraid of him. I can do it."
"Oh well."
Qian Lai and Guan Shu pushed open the door to the interrogation room.
"Liu Shifan, you're still trying to deny it? Look who this is!"
Liu Shifan raised his dog-like eyes and shook his head contemptuously.
"Who is she? I don't know her at all. Oh, I remember now."
At the banquet, she flirted with men and asked them to dance.
I went to the self-service counter, and within two minutes, this woman came over and asked if I could dance with her.
Pshaw, I wouldn't even look at a woman of that caliber. I rejected her right then and there.
What? What do you mean by bringing her to see me?
What crime are you trying to frame me for?
Guan Shu, a seasoned veteran, despised this kind of scoundrel. They were clearly worse than anyone else, yet they insisted on clinging to logic, presenting themselves as if they were perfect flowers.
