"Damn it, stop playing dumb with me!"
Wang Sisong cursed angrily, not loosening his grip but tightening it even more.
"Hmph! Courting death!"
Luo Chao snorted coldly, just about to make a move when Bai Xiao's voice suddenly came through, "Song Shao, you misunderstood him."
Upon hearing Bai Xiao's words, Wang Sisong shot Luo Chao a cold glare and finally let go.
"Bai Xiao, what exactly happened just now?" Wang Sisong knew Bai Xiao wouldn't speak carelessly.
"Just now, he deliberately tipped the SUV to protect Miss Lin because someone had installed a steel wire at the tunnel entrance," Bai Xiao explained.
"Steel wire?" Wang Sisong was a bit puzzled, and then he thought of a terrifying consequence.
If someone had installed a steel wire at the tunnel entrance, at the speed they were going, it could cut the car apart, never mind the people inside!
Realizing this, Wang Sisong inwardly cursed, and shouted, "Oh no, Wu Yunfei!"
With Wang Sisong's shout, Lin Yun suddenly became alert, and the four of them rushed towards Wu Yunfei's McLaren.
The McLaren had crashed into a big tree by the roadside, and due to the immense impact, the tree had been snapped in half, leaving only a stump.
The front of the McLaren was severely deformed and dented, clearly totalled.
The four approached the McLaren's door, Wang Sisong and Lin Yun tried to pull it open, but it was too dented from the crash to budge.
Luo Chao and Bai Xiao exchanged a look, and with their combined strength, they easily pulled the door open.
Inside the car, two massive airbags had already deployed.
Luo Chao pushed the airbags aside, and they finally saw Wu Yunfei slumped against the seat.
Wu Yunfei's face was drained of color, and there was a pool of warm blood on his chest.
Seeing Luo Chao and the others, Wu Yunfei's eyes rolled in their direction, trying to say something, but only strange sounds came out.
Struggling to get out of the driver's seat, as he attempted to sit up, with a "thud," his head suddenly fell off his neck!
Wu Yunfei's head rolled twice on the ground, stopping near Lin Yun's feet.
"Ah—"
Lin Yun screamed and fainted from the horrifying sight, collapsing into Luo Chao's arms.
Wang Sisong stared dead-eyed at Wu Yunfei's head, his face turning pale, eyes filled with fear.
"Who did this? Bai Xiao, tell me who did it?!" Fear turned to anger as Wang Sisong suddenly burst out, demanding from Bai Xiao.
Though Wang Sisong disliked Wu Yunfei, he never wanted him dead.
Yet tonight, Wu Yunfei died right before his eyes, and in such a gruesome and terrifying manner...
"I'm sorry, young master, I... don't know." Bai Xiao closed his eyes and shook his head.
At this moment, Luo Chao suddenly spoke, "I might know who did this."
"You know? Tell me, who is it?" Wang Sisong urged, hearing Luo Chao's words.
Bai Xiao looked at Luo Chao, puzzled.
"There have been seven wealthy young heirs killed in a series in Huahai City. Are you aware of this?" Luo Chao looked into Wang Sisong's eyes and asked.
With Luo Chao's reminder, Wang Sisong suddenly remembered something, pondering, he asked, "So you mean... Wu Yunfei is the eighth?"
"That's right." Luo Chao nodded, indeed convinced of this.
This serial killer or murder organization must have been intimately familiar with the information and whereabouts of all the wealthy heirs in Huahai City.
Only thus could they precisely choose today to install this life-taking steel wire at the tunnel entrance!
Perhaps their intent was to claim the lives of Lin Yun, Wang Sisong, and Wu Yunfei, these three rich heirs, all at once!
But in all their planning, they did not account for the presence of two experts, Luo Chao and Bai Xiao, resulting only in the death of Wu Yunfei, who was without a guard.
...
Half an hour later, police, firefighters, and ambulance personnel arrived at the scene.
Lin Yun was sent to the hospital by ambulance for observation and treatment, while Luo Chao and the others were taken back to the city police station for questioning.
After Wang Sisong and Bai Xiao finished giving their statements, they left the police station, led by a lawyer from Wanlin Group.
Luo Chao, however, was handcuffed, sitting in the interrogation room, awaiting police questioning for alleged illegal street racing.
Screech!
The interrogation room door opened, and a cold and stern female police officer walked in.
Her long hair draped over her shoulders, and on her fair, oval face were bewitching phoenix eyes. Upon seeing Luo Chao's face, she was suddenly startled!
"It's you!"
Luo Chao and Fang Zhiruo exclaimed in surprise at the same time.
Luo Chao hadn't expected this seemingly aloof, unapproachable beauty to be the same police officer, Fang Zhiruo, whom he had disciplined with his "friction interrogation method" after she broke into Lin Yun's villa last night.
"Well, well, what a coincidence, Officer Fang!" Luo Chao taunted, intentionally emphasizing the word "officer."
"Hmph! You're suspected of illegal street racing. I'm going to detain you for forty-eight hours," Fang Zhiruo said angrily.
Fang Zhiruo clearly remembered what Luo Chao did to her last night and planned to skip the questioning, opting to put him directly into the detention cell.
"I'm suspected of racing?" Luo Chao pointed a finger at himself, then at Fang Zhiruo, "Then aren't you suspected of illegal home invasion? I have evidence!"
With that, Luo Chao pulled out the police badge Fang Zhiruo had dropped when she snuck into the villa and waved it before her.
Luo Chao knew Fang Zhiruo's badge would be useful someday, which is why he'd kept it in his pocket.
"You..." Fang Zhiruo hesitated, then quickly said in a low voice, as if afraid their police colleagues outside would hear, "Give it back to me!"
"Give it back? Sure! But first, tell me why you snuck into the villa last night?" Luo Chao teased, tossing her badge in his hand.
"I... I can't tell you." Fang Zhiruo stammered.
"Can't tell me? Do you know who I am?" Luo Chao squinted his eyes, carefully observing her expression.
The interrogation room, meant for questioning Luo Chao, now turned into Luo Chao questioning the police officer.
"Who are you? Aren't you just Lin Yun's bodyguard?" Fang Zhiruo couldn't help but be curious.
"Bodyguard?"
Luo Chao sneered and, pointing his finger at Fang Zhiruo's delicate nose, declared, "Let me tell you, I'm Luo Chao, the Soldier King of the Dragon Fang Team! And I have every reason to suspect, Fang Zhiruo, that you're the killer who's been murdering the seven wealthy heirs in Huahai City!"
