After glancing at the incoming call number, Lu Fan, who had been happily eating, suddenly became serious.
The call was from someone at the detective agency; I glanced at the time.
There was still more than an hour until the agreed meeting, so the fact that he was being called at this time left Lu Fan completely baffled.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you answering?"
Zhou Wen ate a few bites and listened to Lu Fan's phone ringing incessantly. Lu Fan just stared quietly at the phone screen.
Zhou Wen, not understanding why he wasn't answering the phone, asked Lu Fan curiously.
"Oh, hey, isn't it time yet?"
As soon as the call was answered, Lu Fan spoke first, asking the question on the other end of the line.
"What? Okay, okay, I'll be right there."
Lu Fan was surprised at first when he heard what the other person was saying, and then he spoke into the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Fan's forehead began to sweat, and he stopped eating. He quickly got up and headed out.
"Mr. Lu, what's the rush? Why don't you finish your meal first?"
Zhou Wen said, looking at Lu Fan who was in a hurry to leave.
"Something big has happened. Let's eat together another time."
Startled by the phone call, Lu Fan didn't bother to explain much to Zhou Wen and hurriedly left the coffee shop.
"Sis, what's that guy rushing off to?"
Just as Lu Fan left, Zhou Ruan returned. She had wanted to greet Lu Fan, but he left in a hurry without even acknowledging her. Feeling that this was a bit unusual, Zhou Ruan went into the office and asked Zhou Wen.
"I don't know either. I just got a phone call while I was eating, and then I left in a hurry."
Hearing Zhou Ruan's question, Zhou Wen shrugged, equally puzzled.
"I'm hungry too, let's eat some more."
Zhou Ruan rolled up her sleeves and sat down in Lu Fan's seat, picking up a pair of unused chopsticks and starting to eat.
"After you finish eating, let them all come in and have some too. Otherwise it's just a waste, so it's better to share it with everyone."
Zhou Wen prepared a huge amount of dishes to save face, and the portions were all very large.
Lu Fan left before he had eaten much; he and Zhou Ruan had tiny appetites and couldn't possibly finish all that food.
Looking at the open office door, remembering that there were still employees working outside who hadn't eaten yet, he wiped his face with a napkin and said to Zhou Ruan.
"Okay, I understand. Was Lu Fan the only one who came here just now?"
While chewing the food in her mouth, Zhou Ruan asked Zhou Wen.
"Yes, just Lu Fan alone."
Hearing his younger sister ask who had come, he knew that his silly sister's heart had been stolen.
After leaving the coffee shop, Lu Fan drove to the underground parking lot below his company building.
When Lu Fan arrived, he could see from afar that the underground parking garage was already surrounded by crowds of people taking pictures with their phones.
There were also company employees, security guards, and police officers standing on the cordon to maintain order.
Lu Fan knew something must have happened, so he parked the car and rushed to the garage entrance.
"Please make way."
When he ran to the garage entrance, he saw that the garage was already surrounded by a huge crowd and shouted.
Everyone turned to look at the person who had shouted. Some company employees recognized Lu Fan and quickly made way for him.
"What are you doing? Please move back beyond the cordon!"
A policeman maintaining order reached out to stop Lu Fan as he was about to enter.
“I am the owner of this company. You called me and asked me to come here.”
Lu Fan took out his phone and explained to the police officer who was stopping him.
"Let him in, Xiao Du."
Sun Dahai walked up from the underground parking garage and, seeing Lu Fan about to enter, said to Xiao Du, who was blocking his way.
"You can go in now."
Upon hearing his master's command, Xiao Du raised the alert level slightly, allowing Lu Fan to walk in with his head down.
"Hello, I am Lu Fan from the Jiang Group."
"Hello, I am Sun Dahai, deputy captain of the criminal investigation team."
Lu Fan and Sun Dahai shook hands politely as they entered.
"Good news from the police. I don't know why you've contacted me. If you need our company's cooperation, just contact our secretary directly; he can handle everything."
Lu Fan looked at Sun Dahai in front of him with a puzzled expression and asked.
"Let's go inside and talk."
Seeing that there were reporters outside, Sun Dahai was worried about the negative impact, so he led Lu Fan into the underground parking garage.
As Lu Fan followed Sun Dahai into the garage, he saw several policemen taking pictures of a person on the ground, while others were searching the surrounding area.
Do you recognize this person?
Sun Dahai led Lu Fan to a corpse and asked Lu Fan a question.
I've never seen it before.
Lu Fan carefully examined the lifeless man before him and answered the police.
"I hope you can cooperate. We just called you using his phone. It's a bit unreasonable for you to say you don't know him."
When Sun Dahai heard Lu Fan say he didn't recognize him, he shook his head, smiled, and said to Lu Fan.
“I really don’t know him. You found my phone number in his phone because I asked him to do some things for me, that’s why I have this phone number.”
Seeing Sun Dahai's disbelieving look, Lu Fan said to him with certainty.
They also mentioned the phone number.
"Take care of the scene investigation and bring the body back to the police station for further examination. Mr. Lu, you also need to come with us to clarify this matter."
Sun Dahai was very unhappy because of Lu Fan's tone just now.
After giving orders to the police officers below, he looked at Lu Fan and said with a smile.
"No problem, I know I didn't do anything, and you'll release me soon."
Lu Fan didn't care, since he was upright and had nothing to fear.
The group evacuated from the underground parking garage, and the people at the entrance were moved to the sides. Lu Fan followed them out.
"I'll drive myself to the police station; I don't need to ride in your car."
Lu Fan looked at the reporters outside taking pictures and whispered to Sun Dahai.
"That won't do. You're still a suspect, so you have to come back with us. We're already being very lenient by not handcuffing you."
Upon hearing Lu Fan's request, Sun Dahai rejected it outright.
"good."
Lu Fan reluctantly followed Sun Dahai into a police car.
The group drove away from the scene, but even after the police left, the people gathered at the exit of the underground parking garage had not dispersed.
"What's going on? Wasn't that Lu Fan, the chairman of the Jiang Group, taken away by the police?"
A reporter looked through the photos in his camera and said.
