Chapter 232 A fleeting figure



Chapter 232 A fleeting figure

After lunch, Li Zhi went to room 401 in the next building, but did not see Yu Wei.

She sat and waited for a while and then went back.

Li Zhi closed the door and glanced around the living room. "Where's my son?"

"In the room." Xie Tingzhou paused and asked, "How is it? Is she back?"

"No." Li Zhi shook her head and walked to the sofa and sat down.

Xie Tingzhou bent down and placed the plate in his hand on the coffee table. On it were the watermelon pieces he had just cut.

He sat down next to Li Zhi and used a fruit fork to pick up a piece of watermelon and handed it to her, "That must be because they haven't finished it yet."

Li Zhi took it, took a bite, and said slowly: "Although Yu Wei wanted to use Duan Qian's help to arrange her company and family, she hasn't come back yet. I don't know why, but I always feel something is wrong."

Xie Tingzhou thought for two seconds and suggested, "Then send a message to Duan Qian on Yinfa. If he's still alive, try to get some information about Yu Wei from him."

Li Zhi nodded and said, "You're right. I'll ask."

She finished eating the piece of watermelon in her hand, put down the fruit fork, then took out her cell phone from her pocket, opened the note, found Duan Qian in the message list, and sent him a message.

[Are you there? Are you still alive? I suddenly thought of a way to help you.]

About two minutes later, a message came back from Duan Qian.

DQ: [Master Li, I'm still alive, but I don't need you anymore.]

Li Zhi looked at the news of his return, her eyes moved slightly, and she suddenly had a bad premonition.

[Why not? Didn't you say your wife and children turned into evil spirits and are haunting you?]

DQ: [I met a powerful master, and he seemed to have taken my wife and children away.]

Li Zhi frowned and said in a deep voice, "Yu Wei is in trouble indeed."

Xie Tingzhou naturally also saw the content of the conversation on the phone, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Powerful master?"

Li Zhi tapped the phone screen with her fingertips and said in surprise, "Logically speaking, none of your Taoist priests or masters of metaphysics should be able to handle these extremely ferocious mother and child demons. How could he be so lucky as to meet someone who could handle them?"

Xie Tingzhou suddenly thought of something, "It can't be that person..."

Li Zhi also thought of it. She met his eyes and pursed her red lips, "Mr. Huo."

"Yes, is it possible for him to do it with his ability?" Xie Tingzhou said.

Li Zhi narrowed her eyes slightly, "He is not a simple person, he should be able to do it."

She lowered her eyes and looked at the phone screen again, tapping the screen quickly with her slender fingers, sending a message to Duan Qian.

How did you meet him?

DQ: [We met on the road. My car rear-ended his, and he helped me.]

Li Zhi: [What does he look like? Can you describe him? What are his characteristics?]

DQ: [He looked quite wealthy and young, wearing a suit. I can't remember his exact appearance, he didn't have any particular features.]

DQ: [In that situation, I didn't have the time to carefully care about others. I just wanted to run away.]

Li Zhi: [Are you sure he took your wife and child away?]

DQ: [Probably. My wife couldn't beat that master, so she came after me. Then that master caught up with her and started fighting with her again. I just ignored her and ran away.]

DQ: [Also, it's been almost three hours since the incident, and my wife hasn't appeared in front of me since.]

Li Zhi turned to look at Xie Tingzhou beside him, "I feel like it's him."

"Ask him on which section of the road the rear-end collision occurred and the approximate time. I can ask someone to investigate the surveillance footage of that section of the road at the time, and they should be able to find out the man's license plate number." Xie Tingzhou said slowly.

"In this way, we finally have a clue and can continue to trace the license plate number."

Li Zhi nodded, turned her head, lowered her eyelashes, and sent another message to Duan Qian.

[Which section of the road did you rear-end when?]

DQ: [South Yunhai Road, around 8 o'clock.]

Li Zhi: [Okay, I understand.]

Xie Tingzhou took a look at the information provided by Duan Qian, and immediately took out his mobile phone and asked someone to investigate.

After a while, his people came back with news.

Li Zhi's eyes fell on his phone screen and she frowned slightly. "What a coincidence! There was a problem with the surveillance camera during that time period, so they didn't capture anything."

Xie Tingzhou raised an eyebrow, not expecting the clue he had just found to be broken. "Either it's a coincidence, or he's just too cautious. He knew he was going to be rear-ended, so he tampered with the surveillance on that stretch of road in advance."

Li Zhi shook her head. "It was just a rear-end collision. I don't think there's any need to activate the surveillance."

She paused and continued, "How could he have thought that we would have had some connection with Duan Qian, and then used him to check the surveillance footage to investigate him? This is too cautious. He wouldn't have been able to foresee such a place. It must be a simple coincidence."

"Whether it's a coincidence or not is not important. The key is that now that the clues are broken, will Yu Wei and her son be in trouble?" Xie Tingzhou expressed his concerns.

Li Zhi thought for a moment and said, "It should be fine for now. If it's really that Mr. Huo, judging by the fact that he previously raised corpses at the bottom of the sea, he must be trying to keep these two evil spirits by his side for his control."

"That's raising a ghost." Xie Tingzhou said.

Li Zhi nodded. "That's right, but this isn't a good thing for Yu Wei and her son. They'll lose their rationality and become mere tools for killing. So we have to find a way to rescue them as soon as possible."

She folded her arms, leaned back slightly, and leaned against the sofa. She added, "It was my carelessness. I didn't expect this change to happen. If I had tracked Yu Wei and her son, I wouldn't be at a loss now."

"It's not your fault. The main reason is that you didn't expect that Yu Wei still had things to do with Duan Qian, and you thought she would come back soon after taking revenge." Xie Tingzhou said.

Li Zhi was about to say something when she suddenly sensed something. Her eyes fixed and she stood up from the sofa and moved quickly towards the balcony.

Xie Tingzhou was stunned for a moment when he saw this, then he reacted and looked up, only to see her flipping over and jumping down from the balcony.

He immediately stood up and walked to the balcony. He looked down and scanned around, but he didn't see Li Zhi and didn't know where she had gone.

Xie Tingzhou withdrew his gaze and paused when his eyes passed by the entrance of the residential building. He saw a black figure flash by.

But he didn't think much about it for the time being, turned around and went back to the living room.

There was only his cell phone on the sofa, so it was obvious that Li Zhi had taken the cell phone with him when he left.

Xie Tingzhou immediately bent down, picked up the phone on the sofa, opened WeChat, and sent her a message.
