Chapter 201 A Serial Killer! Terrifying! Horrifying!
After leaving the restaurant, Lu Lian'er called Xia Qingyang, her voice trembling with grievance and tears, "Second Brother... I'm so sad..."
After hearing Lu Lian'er's one-sided account, Xia Qingyang's face darkened with anger.
He was working overtime at the Xia Group, but he immediately left his office to pick up Lu Lian'er.
When Xia Mian parted ways with her mother Shen Yingshuang, she refreshed her WeChat Moments to see what Lu Lian'er had just posted.
"Mom, Xia Qingyang took Lu Lian'er to the mall and bought new jewelry, look!"
She handed the phone to her mother, Shen Yingshuang, who only glanced at it before scoffing, "Ha! You idiot, being completely fooled by this green tea b*tch."
"I'm afraid she'll tell those three idiots and say bad things about you..." Xia Mian was a little worried, after all, she knew best how infuriating the three Xia brothers were.
She gave Xia Mian a reassuring look, "Don't worry, Mom will deal with her when we get back."
Zhao Baoqi and Xia Mian returned to the large apartment together, going upstairs and downstairs.
She chuckled and grabbed Xia Mian, who was about to exit the elevator. "Mianmian, tell me the truth, living under the same roof as my older brother, have you forgotten what the world is like?"
"Get lost!" Xia Mian spat at her and poked her forehead. "What's going on in your head?"
"Hehe, yellow waste! I'm a big yellow girl!" Zhao Baoqi laughed in a cheeky way, her eyes crinkling with cunning.
"You little brat, hurry up and go home!" Xia Mian shoved her, then tickled her waist. "Stop gossiping here!"
Zhao Baoqi laughed heartily, "Oh dear, I give up! Oh dear, stop tickling me!"
"Stop scratching me!"
They played around for a while before separating.
Xia Mian pressed the fingerprint lock and prepared to bend down to change her shoes.
However, when her gaze fell on the shoe cabinet in the entryway, she frowned slightly.
She remembered that the slippers weren't placed like this when she left the house that morning...
The toes of the shoes were clearly pointing outwards, but now they're pointing inwards, and the other slipper has been stepped on and flipped over!
His wary eyes scanned the entire living room, which was empty except for the faint glow of the neon lights outside that shone through the windows.
A cool night breeze lifted the white curtains.
Xia Mian bit her lip, gently stepped back, and pressed her fingertips on the door lock. The whole house was filled with an atmosphere that was different from usual.
Unfamiliar...dangerous!
Her heart was in her throat, and her palms were sweating.
She then looked at the TV cabinet in the living room and noticed that one of the drawers was half-open!
Fu Yanshen usually doesn't come back even if he's out all day, and even if he does, he would never leave the drawer half-open.
Perhaps because he was a soldier, he was a person with a very strong sense of order and rules!
She gently pushed open the security door, rushed out, and then quickly pressed the elevator button.
She turned pale as soon as she pressed the elevator button. No! This can't happen!
She reacted quickly and rushed towards the emergency exit.
Just as she rushed into the emergency exit, she heard the sound of her home's security door closing.
Then a heavy footstep came chasing after her.
She didn't dare to look back, and instinctively rushed towards Zhao Baoqi and the twins' house!
As she ran, she called Baoqi, "Baoqi! Baoqi! Answer me quickly!"
Hearing the approaching footsteps behind her, she urgently pressed the doorbell of Zhao Baoqi's house!
Just as the assassin was about to rush out of the emergency exit, the security door was opened, and Xia Mian quickly rushed in!
Bang!
The security door was closed.
Xia Mian was panting heavily, then locked the door again.
As soon as he turned around, he met Zhao Baoqi and the twins' puzzled gazes.
Her back was pressed tightly against the security door, soaked with sweat.
My throat hurts.
"Mianmian, what's wrong?" Zhao Baoqi pulled her hand and sat her down on the sofa. "Your hands are so cold!"
"Baoqi, just now..." Xia Mian had just started to speak when a hoarse voice suddenly came from the doorway, "Your takeout has arrived!"
Zhao Baoqi looked at the twins, "Did you order takeout?"
Fu Yanhao shook his head, "We ate before we came back, we didn't order anything!"
Fu Yanchen also shook his head.
"I'll go take a look," Zhao Baoqi said, standing up.
Xia Mian's face was ashen. She grabbed Zhao Baoqi, who was about to open the door, and said forcefully, "Baoqi, that's not takeout, listen to me!"
"He's here! It must be him!"
"Mianmian?" Zhao Baoqi was even more puzzled.
"I just got home, and I noticed my slippers weren't arranged correctly, so I ran out. As soon as I came out, someone followed me out of my house!" Xia Mian's voice was breathless. "He's chasing me! He wants to kill me!"
"Impossible, right?" Zhao Baoqi was a little surprised. "Isn't that my brother? Shouldn't it be my brother who's back? You don't mean to think of my brother as an assassin, do you?"
Xia Mian shook her head violently, "How could that be?"
Fu Yanhao was already standing at the door, looking out through the peephole.
But instead, he saw a pair of sinister eyes peering through the peephole! A magnified eyeball suddenly met his gaze!
He was so scared his hair almost stood on end!
"Damn! Who's that idiot outside? A lunatic? Trying to scare me?"
"I'll shoot you right now, you little brat!"
Fu Yanhao angrily yelled at the door, "If you've got the guts, come in!"
A sinister, grating laugh came from outside. "You've got some nerve! Open the door, or none of you will live today!"
Zhao Baoqi and Xia Mian stared at each other, their eyes widening simultaneously.
"Is he really an assassin?"
Xia Mian forced herself to calm down and called Fu Yanshen.
The phone rang for a few seconds before being answered by the guard.
"Miss Xia, is there anything I can help you with?"
"Where is Fu Yanshen?" Xia Mian's heart tightened, and she unconsciously gripped her phone tightly.
"Here's the thing, our leader is in a meeting right now. Recently, a fugitive serial killer has appeared in Mingcheng, targeting young girls. So the leader is having a meeting with the police."
Xia Mian looked at Zhao Baoqi nervously, "A serial killer?"
“Yes, Miss Xia, if you have anything to say, I can pass it on to the commander.” The guard continued to inquire.
"I...I think he's right outside my door!" Xia Mian hurriedly told him what had happened.
The guard was terrified!
With trembling hands, he hung up the phone and rushed into the conference room!
"Guard Zhang, isn't this inappropriate? The commander is in a meeting!"
"Quick! I have an urgent matter!"
The guards were almost in tears!
Are you kidding me? The commander's wife and siblings have encountered a serial killer!
"No matter how urgent it is, you have to wait until the leader finishes the meeting. Do you know how important this meeting is?"
Just then, the conference room door was flung open with a bang.
The man at the head was tall and wore a crisp military uniform. His cold face was expressionless, and his eyes were filled with intense iciness.
"Commander! Something's happened!"
