Chapter 49 Chapter 49 “The bed is a little big, I’m a little scared,…
Port City, Pei Shuyu had been here before.
Together with Lu Hean.
It's strange. Hong Kong's economy has been steadily developing and on an upward trend in recent years. With wealth and happiness, crime rates have been significantly reduced. Everyone lives their own lives, and there has never been such a serious incident.
Originally, Pei Shuyu thought that the man was just attracted by her beauty and wanted to rob her of her money and her body.
But the report showed that all omegas only suffered glandular damage.
Some were gouged out, some were only half gouged out... The method was too cruel. Pei Shuyu's brows have not relaxed since he looked at those photos.
The point is, only in the first case were anesthetic components found in the omega's body, but not in the later cases.
Gland dissection…
Pei Shuyu yanked at his hair in frustration. He couldn't imagine this person's motives at all. He didn't rob her of her money or her body, he only damaged her glands. And why would he remove the glands and not take them away? No... what on earth was this person trying to do...
Unable to figure it out, Pei Shuyu put a question mark in the column for the murderer. He looked at it for a while and wrote down the word "psychopath".
The preliminary assessment is that this is a malicious incident that indiscriminately targets omegas.
We have to go to their place to check the specific situation. The clues are still too superficial.
“Knock knock!”
"The door is not locked, just come in."
Xiao Qingyang came in with a pile of potions and carefully placed them on the table. He gestured to Pei Shuyu, "Well, this is enough, right?"
Pei Shuyu took a quick inventory and found that it was enough for ten omegas.
"That's enough. Pack it up and put it in the car. Where's Fu Zhouxing?"
Xiao Qingyang took out his backpack and answered as he was packing it. "Ah, he said he needed to go home to take care of some things... I didn't ask any more questions."
Pei Shuyu nodded and made an OK gesture.
I have almost finished reading the information and there are still a few hours before departure.
After getting some sleep, he pulled out a folding chair. Just as he was about to fall asleep, Fu Zhouxing called and said someone was looking for him outside.
Who would look for him? Lu Hean? It couldn't be because the friend message didn't go through... then he wouldn't go.
Pei Shuyu continued to lie down and asked, "Do you know him?"
"I don't know him. Come over and see. He's an omega. I need to come back and pack my things."
Omega, not Lu Hean, then go and take a look.
Pei Shuyu walked out of the office. The afternoon sun was a bit dazzling. He squinted and saw a slender omega standing not far away, twisting his fingers nervously.
The man heard footsteps and looked up - a handsome but unfamiliar face.
"Pei Shuyu." The omega spoke softly, his fingers nervously twisted together.
Pei Shuyu slowed down his pace and said in a gentle tone, "Hello, what can I do for you?"
The other party took a deep breath, as if mustering up courage, "You may not remember me. We met many years ago." He paused and added, "I am Ana Shen."
"Chen Yan?" Pei Shuyu repeated it, but he really couldn't remember it.
"Don't you remember?" The omega said anxiously, gesturing wildly in the air. "You helped me at the banquet at the beginning. Later, I found out you were from Sevan, so I came to see you a few times."
The name gently stirred fragments of his memory. Pei Shuyu remembered. Many years ago, there was indeed such an omega who had tried to strike up a conversation with him, blushing, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration.
But then, the omega seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, never to return to his sight. Pei Shuyu didn't take it too seriously at the time, after all, Lu Hean was always with him. He smiled faintly, "I remember now. I don't think I've seen you since then. How have you been lately?"
Ana Shen's face turned pale, and his fingers clenched tighter, his knuckles turning white. He seemed to have made up his mind, and said quickly: "I'm fine recently... I came to you to tell you why I suddenly disappeared that year and why I never contacted you again. It's all because of Lu Hean."
Pei Shuyu's gaze suddenly froze and fell on Shen Yan's face.
Ana Shen lowered his head, his voice lighter: "He found me and threatened me... saying that if I appear in front of you again, he will make my family... bankrupt. So..." He took a deep breath, "Actually... I, I have always liked..."
“I understand.” Pei Shuyu interrupted him, pulled a chair over and motioned Ana Shen to sit down: “I’m sorry for Lu Hean’s rude behavior and for making you endure this.”
Ana Shen looked up in surprise: “Don’t you want to listen to me finish what I’m saying?”
"All of this is in the past." Pei Shuyu said calmly but gently, "What matters is how you live now."
Ana Shen twisted his fingers: "I'm actually going to Hong Kong on a business trip. I heard that you are going too... I think maybe we can go together." He hurriedly added, "I know it's inappropriate to say this now. That Lu Hean has lost his memory and has forgotten you. Why can't you start over?"
Pei Shuyu shook his head gently, his voice still gentle but firm: "Alan Ana, I am very grateful for your consideration for me, and I understand your intentions. But this is my own problem, and it has nothing to do with Lu Hean."
Seeing Ana Shen’s eyes redden, he slowed down his tone again: “You are a very good person and deserve a pure relationship instead of wasting your time with me.”
Ana Shen lowered his head and whispered, “I just don’t want to miss the opportunity again…”
"Sometimes missing someone may lead to a better encounter." Pei Shuyu stood up and patted his shoulder gently. "If you encounter any difficulties on the way to the port city, you can ask us for help."
"Have I been given the nice guy card?" Ana Shen wiped the corners of his eyes and finally showed a faint smile: "Then can we still be friends in the future?"
"certainly."
After sending Ana Shen away, Xiao Qingyang poked his head in: “Are you okay?”
Pei Shuyu sighed softly: "It's okay. Call them and get ready to go."
Fu Zhouxing was already standing by the car, carrying his equipment. "We just received news from Gangcheng that they've sent someone to assist us. His name is Gong Wen, and he's a doctor."
"Only one was sent?" Pei Shuyu thought he had misheard.
Are the security resources in the port city already so scarce?
Fu Zhouxing threw a folder over and said, "Take a look for yourself."
Pei Shuyu instantly suppressed all his personal emotions and returned to normal: "Let's go, we'll talk about it in detail on the way."
As the car drove out of Saifan, Pei Shuyu looked out the window, his fingers unconsciously stroking the screen of his phone. He still didn't accept Lu Hean's friend request.
…
It was already midnight when we arrived at the port city.
They had consulted with the local police in Gangcheng in advance and urgently arranged a house for them to facilitate the investigation.
By the time Pei Shuyu was picked up, several people had gotten out of two cars. The local police were dumbfounded. Didn't they say they were only sending two people?! How could there be two teams?
Pei Shuyu looked at Lu Jianchuan's gloomy face and took the initiative to give in, "Let's find another place to live."
“? What? We arrived first…” Xiao Qingyang didn’t understand.
Fu Zhouxing followed Pei Shuyu, and his voice drifted into Xiao Qingyang's ears with the night wind, "It's okay, you can sleep here with Lu Jianchuan and the others."
These words completely disgusted Xiao Qingyang.
The three of them drove slowly through the night of the port city. Xiao Qingyang was still upset and complained as he drove: "Why should we give it to them? It was clearly us who received the task first!"
Pei Shuyu closed his eyes: "What's wrong with letting the younger generation go?"
"Okay, okay," Xiao Qingyang said with a sad face, "but where can we find a house in the middle of the night?"
Pei Shuyu took out his phone and swiped the rental app: "Stop crying, there must be a rental here, right? This one, three bedrooms and a living room, looks good."
After the call was connected, the landlord was hesitant at first: "Only rent for half a month? No, no, it's too troublesome..."
Just as Pei Shuyu was about to hang up, the landlord suddenly changed the subject: "Wait! The landlord said he happened to be in Hong Kong City and said we could talk in person. Where are you? I'll have him come find you."
Half an hour later, the three of them stood at the agreed location. Xiao Qingyang paced back and forth as if he had ADHD. "Is this landlord reliable? Coming here in the middle of the night to discuss a two-week short-term lease?"
Fu Zhouxing suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the car coming from the distance.
A black luxury car stopped steadily in front of them, and the window slowly rolled down. When they saw the person in the driver's seat clearly, the three of them were stunned.
"Lu He'an?" Xiao Qingyang was so shocked that his jaw dropped.
Lu Hean elegantly took off his sunglasses, his eyes fell directly on Pei Shuyu, and he smiled and said, "I heard someone wants to rent my house?"
Pei Shuyu was also shocked and asked him, "Why are you in Gangcheng?"
"I've invested in a few properties." Lu Hean said lightly, his eyes still fixed on Pei Shuyu. "So the tenants you mentioned on the phone are you. Come on, I'll take you to see the property."
…
Xiao Qingyang secretly sent a message: "What is going on???"
Fu Zhouxing replied succinctly: "Fate."
Xiao Qingyang: "What a bullshit fate! This is a conspiracy!"
The car stopped in front of a large and exquisite villa, and Lu Hean got out first: "This is it."
Xiao Qingyang's eyes widened: "Damn, how much does this cost..."
Lu Hean finally turned his gaze away from Pei Shuyu and smiled slightly: "Fortunately it's not expensive, I'll give you a discount, 5,000."
"Five thousand?!" Xiao Qingyang screamed.
Lu Hean raised his eyebrows: "What about fifty thousand?"
Pei Shuyu: ...
Lu Hean pulled out a POS machine from somewhere: "Cash or card?"
"I don't have any money." Pei Shuyu interrupted quickly, "Sorry to bother you, I won't rent it anymore."
Lu Hean quickly grabbed Pei Shuyu's arm, took out the key and opened the door: "No, I was just kidding. Captain Pei and I hit it off right away, and we fell in love again, so it's free. I'll stay in the master bedroom, and the rest of you can do whatever you want."
“…”
There was a silence.
"Wait!" Xiao Qingyang was the first to jump up, "You live here too?"
Lu Hean said as a matter of course: "This is my house. If I don't live here, where else can I live?" He looked at Pei Shuyu again, his eyes meaningful: "We are all alphas, I don't mind. Captain Pei, do you have any questions?"
Pei Shuyu took a deep breath and tried to keep smiling. "No problem. I'm just curious if Colonel Lu doesn't have to deal with Keynes's affairs?"
"Because of the head injury, the military approved my leave, and the doctor also recommended that I change the environment to recuperate." Lu Hean said calmly, "I just felt that Hong Kong City was friendly, so I came here to play."
"Oh~ I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I could meet Captain Pei." Lu Hean's face was full of joy, as if this was really a chance encounter.
Pei Shuyu saw through everything and was too lazy to expose him.
He was thinking, two rooms, three people, how to divide it.
“Click.”
Lu Hean opened the door to the master bedroom and leaned over to Pei Shuyu, inviting him in a friendly manner: "Captain Pei, the bed is a little big, I'm a little scared, how about we go together?"
