"What did you just say?"

Chen Fang suddenly interrupted her.

Seeing Chen Fang so agitated, Chen Rulin also didn't react immediately and said, "I said I wanted to remind you..."

"Not that, you said Fang Xiumei also died, how do you know Fang Xiumei also died?"

The reason Chen Fang asked this was because Fang Xiumei's body hadn't been found yet, meaning her death hadn't been confirmed. Yu Zhengchuan, holding that pair of panties and a blood-stained stick, had gone to Wulan City Police Station and had not yet returned.

Why did Chen Rulin know Fang Xiumei was dead?

"Right, didn't you know? It's all over the legal system now, you've already found out Fang Xiumei was killed, and even got her panties and the blood traces. Otherwise, why would I tell you everything I know?"

Chen Rulin asked in surprise.

Chen Fang shuddered slightly.

He took out his cellphone from his pants pocket.

He made a call to Yu Zhengchuan.

On the phone, Yu Zhengchuan told him he hadn't received any written results yet, but the news had indeed spread. When he had arrived at the police station, he'd been repeatedly instructed to keep this matter a secret, and he didn't know who had leaked the secret.

"Could it be that someone intentionally leaked this?"

Chen Rulin sat up and asked.

Chen Fang's face darkened as he nodded and asked, "This Guan Xiaoxian from Boiling Point Group, what was his relationship like with the former Secretary Xu Jianfeng?"

Chen Rulin pondered for a while.

She said, "It shouldn't be good, I seldom saw them make any public contacts. When the new material company was completed, I believe Xu Jianfeng didn't even attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Does this have anything to do with leaking secrets?"

Chen Fang shook his head and said, "We can't be sure right now, let's not worry about this for the moment, you get dressed."

Chen Rulin asked, "What happened?"

Chen Fang said, "The plan you had for calling me here was flawless, but now that the news of Fang Xiumei's death has spread, Guan Xiaoxian won't just sit idle. He must have sent someone to follow me, and now that I've come to this bathhouse, and you're here as well, they could easily guess we're here to meet. If my guess is correct, their people will be arriving soon. It's been half an hour since I came, and if I'm right, they should be here any minute."

Upon hearing this, Chen Rulin also realized the danger.

She didn't care about her underwear anymore.

She quickly put on her clothes.

Chen Fang pushed open the door and glanced down the hallway, ensuring it was temporarily safe, then said to Chen Rulin, "Let's go!"

As soon as the two exited the door,

they heard someone at the corner of the hallway say, "It's in Room 258, I'll take you there."

It was the voice of the waitress from before.

The two looked at each other.

Going back would mean a dead end.

In a moment of urgency, Chen Fang forcefully pushed open the door of the neighboring safe.

Luckily,

the room was empty.

But in such a large room, there was nowhere to hide.

Chen Fang pointed at the small bed in the room and said, "Climb in."

"It's so small, how can it hide both of us?"

Chen Rulin asked.

Time waits for no one.

Chen Fang climbed in first and said, "Come on, lie on top of me."

At the moment, that was the only option.

Chen Rulin rolled onto the floor and with Chen Fang's help, lay on top of him.

Though not enough in width, the height was sufficient.

Thus, both of their bodies were completely hidden.

Chen Rulin wasn't wearing her bra.

Her soft breasts pressed against Chen Fang's chest, the soft bouncy feeling was simply too comfortable. Moreover, at this moment, their faces were close together, looking into each other's eyes, the posture was indeed somewhat too intimate.

To keep their bodies from falling,

Chen Rulin had to hold tightly to Chen Fang's waist.

"Secretary Chen, at this time, could we not think about those messy things?"

Chen Rulin said lightly with a sheepish smile.

Chen Fang said, "I'm not thinking about anything."

"And you say you weren't thinking? Give it a bit more force, and you'd have pushed it in,"

Chen Rulin said.

Chen Fang's face flushed; only then did he feel that the disobedient fellow had already stood up, perfectly aligned, exactly against Chen Rulin's most private area.

He was just about to explain.

Then he heard the clear voice of the female server, "That's not right; they are still inside. I've been watching at the end of the corridor and didn't see them leave."

"Is there anyone in the room next door?"

A man's voice asked.

The female server said, "No, it's empty."

No sooner had she spoken

than the door creaked open.

A pair of feet in leather shoes appeared; the man quickly rushed into the washroom inside, and, seeing no one there, circled the lounge twice.

At that moment,

both of their hearts were in their throats.

If this man were to look down just a bit, he would see the two of them stacked up like building blocks.

The man's gaze, at that point, also fell on the small bed.

He was just about to crouch down,

when suddenly, a scream came from outside, "Ah... why is there a man..."

This was a female guest's cry.

Instantly, many lounge doors opened, and a chorus of screams erupted.

The female server became frightened.

She hurriedly entered the lounge, grabbed the man and said, "Let's go, quickly, it won't be good if they call the police!"

After all, it was the women's bathing area.

The man did not dare to provoke public anger.

He hurriedly ran away.

The two did not rush to come out.

They waited for another twenty minutes or so.

The commotion outside gradually quieted down.

Taking advantage of the female guests arguing at the front desk,

under Chen Rulin's cover, Chen Fang returned to the toilet and climbed over into the men's bathing area.

A few minutes later,

the two of them walked out of the bath center's main entrance together.

At that time,

in the Eastern Green City residential area on Taigu Street, Guyang City,

two men in black clothes and wearing black peaked caps appeared at the entrance of the residential complex.

The dozing security guard jerked awake, opened his eyes, and suddenly saw two more people in the guard room. Just as he tried to get up to scold them, a stick smashed down on his face.

The guard grunted, falling off the reclining chair,

and was knocked out cold on the ground.

The younger man in black went straight to the control box, pulled a few times inside, and all the complex's surveillance went dark.

They turned off the lights at the guard station.

Then they closed the door.

Afterward, they swaggered into the complex.

Using the security guard's card, they unlocked the staircase door and climbed to a room on the 5th floor.

The middle-aged man crouched down.

He fiddled inside the lock with two wires for a while until, click, the door opened.

After a mutual glance,

the two walked into the pitch-dark room.

In the bedroom,

a man and a woman were lying in bed asleep, completely unaware that strangers had entered their bedroom.
