Chapter 196 Another Murder
The three of them stared at each other for a few seconds before Xu Ge smiled helplessly, "When did you get here?"
Ding Lili rolled her eyes and said, "When you sneaked out of the house alone."
Qin Lei folded his arms around his shoulders, crossed his legs, chewed gum, and put his baseball cap on half of his face. He spoke lazily.
"I remember you mentioned before that Eric seemed to have done you a favor, but I never asked you, what favor did he do for you that made you willing to pay off his debts and take care of his wife and children?"
Xu Ge withdrew his gaze, put the car in gear and started it, saying as he drove.
"It was my first year on the job and I was inexperienced. I was exposed during a dangerous operation, and Eric showed up just in time to save me. I later learned that my colleagues had all evacuated safely, but Eric, realizing I wasn't there, risked going back to find me and bring me out."
Ding Lili nodded in agreement. "Don't our ancestors have a saying that goes, 'Repay kindness with gratitude,'"
"Yes, there is also a saying that goes, 'A drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water.'" Qin Lei said with a lazily yawn.
"We knew you wouldn't just sit back and watch. Your uncle Ping brought you back to the Zhou family to take care of you. He knew it was his wife who framed you, but you didn't expose the matter out of gratitude?"
Qin Lei took off his hat and put it back on. "I know you value gratitude and loyalty, but since we are friends and perfect partners, how could I let you take risks alone?"
Ding Lili nodded in agreement, "That's right, my dream is to buy a beachfront villa in Hawaii for my retirement, so I want to earn this million."
Having said that, Xu Ge didn't say anything else. He just parked the car on the side of the road, turned around to look at the two people in the back seat, smiled, and slowly stretched out his hand.
Ding Lili smiled and walked forward and stretched out her hand, followed by Qin Lei. The three of them clasped hands tightly together.
Xu Ge then said to the two of them, "Although I want to repay you, I won't risk my life. My own safety is paramount. This time, our goal is different from the past, so we all need to be extra careful."
After hearing this, their expressions gradually became serious. They looked at each other and nodded.
"Don't worry, although I want money, I want lives more."
"Me too."
"good,"
After the three of them returned home, they went straight into a studio at home. Xu Ge printed three copies of the information he got from William.
"We've already reviewed most of this information during the day. The Lusen family is currently the largest gang in our area, and our target is Lusen Bruce. His fiancée, the famous opera singer Kardashian May, was found dead in a villa last week. The local medical examiner concluded she died of a drug overdose, but her father said May had never used drugs and hasn't seen his daughter to this day. It's understood that the actress's body has been taken away by her fiancé, Bruce..."
Qin Lei looked down at the only information in his hand. "So, it's another murder case?"
Xu Ge shrugged, turned around, picked up a carbon pen, walked to the whiteboard, wrote down all the important people in the case, and slowly drew up a connection diagram.
Ding Lili took the lollipop out of her mouth and licked the corner of her lips. "So, the cause of death of this actress named Mei actually had another cause."
Xu Ge nodded, "It's very likely, look at the police report."
Ding Lili immediately revealed a mocking smile...
"The local police are just there to eat for free.
Maybe there are people from various factions among them,
Just eat and don't work,
Ten murder cases were closed as eight accidents. Do you expect them to eat shit?"
Xu Ge took out another document and said, "According to the will made by this actress before her death, all her property will be inherited by her father after her death. The most important thing is that this will was declared by the lawyer of the Lu Sen family."
Qin Lei laughed, "So, this father used the wealth bestowed upon him by the Lusen family to hire us to investigate the true cause of his daughter's death?"
Xu Ge nodded, "So, our target is the Lu Sen family, and we must first find Mei's body."
Ding Lili frowned. "But if Mei's death had another cause, would the Lu Sen family still have evidence? They should have destroyed the body long ago, right?"
Xu Ge was silent for a moment and then shook his head, "Not necessarily."
"How do you say that?"
Xu Ge found a photo from a pile of information. The man and woman in the photo were Bruce and Mei.
"What do you see from this photo?"
Ding Lili looked at them for a while and asked, "They must have a good relationship."
Qin Lei also nodded in agreement. They had to be careful as detectives, and psychology was a course they took every year.
Xu Ge pointed to the date below the photo and said, "Look at this date again. It's from last month. We can see that the relationship is very good. If that's true, I believe he would treat his lover's body well, even if it was to cover up some truth. He could have returned the ashes, but he didn't, and he also didn't allow her family to visit. What does this mean?"
Ding Lili immediately said, "This means that Mei's body cannot be seen by her family. It also means that Bruce may not have cremated Mei's body, but hidden it somewhere!"
Xu Ge smiled and said, "So, our first step is to find and identify Mei's body."
Three people
A plan was drawn up overnight, and Ding Lili used her oriental appearance to apply for the job of a maid in the Lusen family.
Qin Lei went to interview for a driver position, while Xu Ge was a piano teacher.
There was actually a reason why William said they would be more suitable for this case.
The Lusen family has many enemies, and there are also many people who want to assassinate them.
Therefore, they prefer to hire people from other countries to serve them to reduce the risk factor.
The three people's excellent resumes quickly passed the layers of screening.
Xu Ge's resume was even more mixed, because as the piano teacher of the young lady of the Lusen family, she must be stricter than others.
At least her resume and self-introduction before she was eighteen were all true, and of course some of the things hidden were those after she came here.
Although they are from different countries and have different beliefs, the Lusen family still pays attention to financial news.
She had also heard of the Zhou Group in the East. As the adopted daughter of the Zhou family, this identity was enough to eliminate the possibility of her being suspected.
"Beautiful Teacher Xu, you play the piano really well."
Xu Ge bowed slightly and said with a smile, "You are too kind."
"Thanks for your hard work."
"No, it should be."
"In order to make it more convenient for Teacher Xu to teach, I hope that Teacher Xu can stay at our house. Of course, if Teacher Xu needs to go out during normal times, we will arrange for a driver to pick her up. Is that okay?"
