Xu Binchen and Ru iqi's eyes t and the latter lowered her head to whisper in the girl's ears. "Calm down. We will not do anything to you."
The girl was instantly stunned in place, looking at Ru iqi incredulously.
Xu Binchen played with the lighter in his hands. Click click. The rhythmic sounds amplified along with the girl's harsh breathing. He pulled out a small bug detector from deep inside his suit and made his way around. When he got to the bedroom and the third closed door, as he expected, the green light turned into a fast blinking red.
Xu Binchen sneered.
He had to comnd Si Yusheng for his caution.
If he and Ru iqi were to lower their guard even for a mont, then they would have been busted.
He gave Ru iqi a aningful glance and the woman cooperated. She whispered so words in the girl's ears and yelled out loud like a shrew. "You...damn it! How dare you try to attack ?! Let's see how I will teach you a lesson! You're not even worthy of licking Young Master Xu's shoes!"
Fortunately, even though the girl was scared shitless, she was quite bright. She started to let out struggling and pained screams. "Sorry, I don't an to do that…sorry…"
Xu Binchen finished going around the room and found three other listening bugs. Fortunately, there weren't any hidden caras left. It seems like his warning was useful.
In the next mont, they enacted a scene where shuffle and struggle broke out, exactly to the point where Ru iqi knocked down the listening bug in the bedroom and crushed it with her high heels. Then, they slamd the bedroom door shut with a loud bang that was enough to shake down the chandelier.
Finally, peace returned. Ru iqi's hair was a ss and her breath was heavy. The girl didn't seem any better though. But the infuriating thing was how Xu Binchen still looked perfectly suave with not even a strand of hair that was out of place. After he made one last round around the room and confird that there's no listening bug left, he slipped the thing back inside his suit.
Ru iqi let go of the girl and sank down to the couch like a lazy sloth.
The girl stood tensely, fearful with a hint of hope. "Y—You guys, who are you?"
"Don't speak too much." Xu Binchen spoke out. "Just know that we don't an you harm."
The girl shrank her neck in fear of being blasted by Xu Binchen's icy aura. The ace investigator ca online in the next second.
"Na."
"L—Lei Liqiu."
"Age."
"Twenty three."
"How long have you been here?"
The girl beca calr as ti passed along. She even looked like she was itching to break her skull and show it all to Xu Binchen. Finally…finally her savior arrived! She wiped her tears and stamred. "It's been…two months."
"Are you a willing party?"
"What?" She lifted her head in shock only to find Xu Binchen's piercing eyes staring straight at her.
As always—Ru iqi rolled her eyes—this man didn't know how to add a filter to his mouth. She pulled the girl down to the couch to sit beside her, holding her hands firmly. "Don't worry, just answer as best as you can."
Xu Binchen pressed on. "I'm asking, are you a willing party in this exchange?"
They played the part of good cop bad cop seamlessly. One was tasked with comforting her while the other played a big bad villain.
As expected, the naive Lei Liqiu's face turned crimson, half in sha and half in anger. "H—How can I be willing?!"
"Shush," Xu Binchen cut her off. "Lower your voice."
Lei Liqiu hiccupped. "I…I worked here as a waitress. It's my friend who introduced to this job. Saying that I will earn big buckets of money. Who knows…who knows that…" She couldn't speak anymore and began to cry softly.
Xu Binchen got a headache everyti soone cried and he didn't want to prolong this interrogation any longer. "What's your friend's na?"
She choked on her sobs, looking very wretched and pitiful. "Zhu Zhenli."
Xu Binchen saw through her in a glance. "Boyfriend?"
Lei Liqiu's eyes widened in shock and then she nodded weakly, mortified and sad.
Xu Binchen sneered. The boyfriend selled his girlfriend to a bar to be a toy for rich people to play with. Did he know the truth and cooperated with Si Yusheng or was he innocent? Xu Binchen was inclined toward the forr.
Human's greed knew no bounds. They could act like a desperate and dying man just to pull you down to the abyss together. He had learned it in a hard way and it opened his eyes to the darkness of the world. In a way, he had to say his thanks toward Granny Zhang.
In the next mont, Xu Binchen approached her. His tall figure lood above her, a pair of dark eyes staring at her coldly, just like an emotionless robot. Lei Liqui's eyes brimd with tears, fear eroded her mind. What did he want to do? What—
Xu Binchen chopped down on her neck in one abrupt mont. Lei Liqiu's body instantly slumped to the side and Ru iqi let her lay down on the couch. She looked at Lei Liqui's tear streaked face and sighed inaudibly.
She turned to Xu Binchen and for the first ti, felt that the police were lucky to have Xu Binchen as their mber. Or else…
She shuddered at the thought. "Should we proceed?"
Xu Binchen suppressed the urge to smoke again. "I think this should be enough otherwise Si Yusheng will be suspicious."
Ru iqi pondered for a mont and felt that he was right. They hadn't gotten Si Yusheng's full trust yet and this operation was shocking enough and not to be underestimated. They were here for the serial killer's victim but who knew that they would uncover a hidden human trafficker organization?
"We can't do this undercover secretly any longer." Ru iqi sighed. "It has ventured to outside of our scope. We should cooperate with Drug Enforcent Force and the Interpol." She lifted her head and asked. "Anyway, do you get the footage?"
"Yes." Xu Binchen looked down at his tie clip which had a micro cara stuck to it. "We have the record of all of their faces ready. Now, we can do our job properly."
