Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter

Chapter 987 - 487: Straightforward? Getting to the Point_2

Perhaps he accidentally discovered some crucial clues while taking photos in the restroom.

Li Yu had to take a deep breath.

"Mr. Luo is right. Speaking of which, we haven’t had a meal since we arrived."

"How about we go downstairs to eat something first? There’s no rush to check the situation later."

It seemed the two were about to leave just as they arrived.

Ah Runji suddenly felt a bit panicked.

"Mr. Luo, did I say something wrong just now, or did I do something incorrect, which made you unhappy?"

"If I made a mistake, I am willing to apologize. But you can’t ignore this case; after all, our local police station hasn’t made any progress in the investigation. If you don’t take charge, this case might remain unsolved."

Seeing that he was a bit embarrassed, a fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He feared that offending him might result in the case remaining unsolved.

Luo Fei, however, shook his head with a smile.

"Manager, you did nothing wrong. I’m just really hungry."

"And you probably already heard. The two of us came to Rob Island not for official business. We’re here on a tourist visa. You should be aware of that."

Luo Fei’s words.

Made Ah Runji almost instantly embarrassed.

"Mr. Luo, you’re right."

"Then how about this, wait until you’ve had your meal, and then come back to check the situation?"

Seeing that Ah Runji was a bit hesitant.

Luo Fei agreed with a smile.

"Alright."

Hearing him finally agree.

Ah Runji breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Mr. Luo, with your assurance, I’m completely at ease."

Ah Runji had previously watched an interview of Luo Fei.

He knew very well in his heart.

Luo Fei was quite extraordinary.

He now saw Luo Fei almost as his only hope.

"Mr. Luo, were you in such a hurry to leave because you found something in the restroom?"

"Are you avoiding Ah Runji to not reveal too much information prematurely?"

After a while, as Li Yu and Luo Fei came outside.

Li Yu saw Luo Fei seemed contemplative, as if hesitating to speak.

Luo Fei, however, smiled and asked back.

"Li Yu, if I told you, Mrs. Lin never actually entered that room, would you believe it?"

Luo Fei suddenly saying this.

Left Li Yu a bit stunned.

She thought she must have misheard.

"Mr. Luo, what did you say?"

"Li Yu, I’m not joking. I’m serious."

As Luo Fei spoke, his tone was serious, and his expression was very earnest.

"From the smell that room emitted when we entered, and the arrangement of the toiletries. It seems that Song Qingyu’s mother, Mrs. Lin, might never have been in that room."

Actually.

Although earlier, when they went to Song Qingyu’s home, Mrs. Lin’s home was in disarray, a complete mess.

Luo Fei had still deliberately observed Mrs. Lin’s bedroom.

This allowed him to understand her daily habits and the order of items in her home.

And in that room just now.

Since Mrs. Lin and her husband left.

The bed hadn’t even been made.

Because there were still two days left until they were officially due to check out when the unfortunate incident occurred.

The local police immediately sealed off the room.

This allowed the scene inside the room to be completely preserved.

But this result.

Greatly surprised Li Yu.

"How is this possible? A few days ago, wasn’t Song Qingyu’s stepfather, Luo Qingping, posting on social media and even with Mrs. Lin together..."

But the next second.

She recalled what Song Qingyu had previously said.

She said: all the photos of her mother and stepfather didn’t show their faces.

Most were from behind or in profile.

Li Yu realized the problem.

"Mr. Luo, do you mean to say that actually, from the moment they arrived on the island, Mrs. Lin had already been kidnapped."

"Or simply, she never came to the island?"

"Exactly."

Luo Fei said, showing Li Yu a social media post.

When he clicked on what seemed to be a still image, it was actually an animation.

As he opened it, the person slowly turned their head.

It turned out to be a local of Rob Island, with typical Southeast Asian features.

At that moment.

Li Yu finally understood.

Why Luo Fei had been so nonchalant earlier.

He didn’t even bother to seriously look for clues in the bedroom.

"Mr. Luo, in that case, the person kidnapped on the island later wasn’t even Song Qingyu’s mother, but someone who looked very similar to her?"

Luo Fei gave a noncommittal nod.

"You’re correct."

"From the evidence we have so far, we deduce Mrs. Lin likely encountered danger even before boarding the plane, possibly on the way to the airport."

"And my judgment isn’t based solely on Song Qingyu’s words. More importantly, Mrs. Lin was meticulous when placing her toothbrush normally. But this time, it was done carelessly."

"Moreover, she usually liked to position the hairdryer’s nozzle facing down. But this time, it was casually placed on the table. It was wholly inconsistent with what a methodical and meticulous homemaker would do."

After listening to Luo Fei’s explanation.

Li Yu realized.

The opponent was quite accurate.

Not to mention anything else.

Because Mrs. Lin had lived alone with her daughter for many years, it had only been the last two years that she started looking for a new partner.

For over ten years before that, she had been incredibly self-disciplined, methodical, and meticulous in all matters.

These habits more or less influenced her daughter.

In such a situation.

It was unlikely she would easily change her original way of doing things or habits.

Even going out on a date was the same.

"Mr. Luo, you’re amazing."

"But if that’s the case, even if we stay on the island, we might not be able to find any clues, correct?"

Li Yu knew very well.

In such cases, it was seldom the act of a lone individual.

It’s usually a group.

So the focus of the investigation should be domestically.

The driver who took Mrs. Lin and her husband to the airport was highly suspicious.

He was most likely colluding with Luo Qingping.

But Luo Fei smiled and said.

"Li Yu, look over there, who do you see?"

Following Luo Fei’s gesture.

Li Yu suddenly saw.

On the wall of the restaurant where they were currently, hung several photos.

Above it was written: "Best Employee of the Month" in large letters.

And in the photos below.

There was someone.

It was the same middle-aged lady who came to Rob Island with Luo Qingping.

This made Li Yu a bit excited.

She hurriedly called over an employee of the store.

"Excuse me, is that lady part of your staff? What’s her name, and is she currently here?"

Hearing Li Yu’s question.

The other party was a bit awkward.

Explaining with slight embarrassment.

"Hello ma’am, that lady is named Liwa. But since taking time off a few days ago, she hasn’t returned to the store. Even her phone can’t be reached. We all presumed she found a better opportunity and left."

At this moment, Luo Fei had already found the girl’s social media profile.

"Liwa, live-streaming singer."

"Age: 43 years."

"A professional extra by day, she can also serve as a local guide. Works in the restaurant at night."

Seeing these words.

Luo Fei gave another noncommittal nod.

"It’s definitely her. We just don’t know where she is now."

"Could she have possibly left the country..."

Before Luo Fei could finish.

The piercing sound of police sirens wailed.

This made Li Yu’s expression turn slightly serious.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Luo and the one beside you, your officer Miss Li?"

Upon hearing the sound, they saw an Asian female officer looking their way.

With skin of healthy, wheatish hue.

Luo Fei gave another noncommittal nod.

"Hello, I am indeed Luo Fei."
