Chapter 69

The gatherings of these few people basically didn't involve drinking, just out of worry about emergencies that could happen at any time. Soon, the three of them drove the Foton 988 assigned by the branch and quickly arrived at the New World Entertainment City at No. 1 Jiefang Avenue, adjacent to Yuema Street.

According to the different floors, the New World Entertainment City was endowed with different functions from bottom to top. The first floor was divided into two: one half was a disco and bar, and the other half was the Lühua Performance Hall, which was considered mass consumption.

The second and third floors were KTV private rooms. There were a total of 88 luxury private rooms of various sizes. It was said that there were more than 500 girls just for singing accompaniment, and the consumption was relatively high.

The fourth floor was a more high-end private club, which ordinary people couldn't go up to. It was said that the starting price for opening a membership card was 200,000, and it wasn't that you could enter just because you had money; you also needed two old members to introduce you to join! Of course, everything was available inside, and it was extremely luxurious! Not many people in Zizhen City could become members.

And the fifth floor was even more mysterious. It was a small five-star hotel with high-end suites, a rooftop swimming pool, a sauna bar, an aerial stage... And this floor was even less accessible to people, and its dedicated direct access channel added a layer of mystery to it!

The incident happened in a large KTV room of about 50 square meters on the second floor, which was full of the smell of alcohol and tobacco, mixed with the various perfumes sprayed by the girls. Lu Haoxuan entered the room and saw 6 young men in leather jackets squatting in the corner on the left side of the room, holding their heads. Standing in front of them were several auxiliary police officers from the Public Security Brigade. A girl in thin clothes was lying on her back on the sofa facing the door of the private room. Lu Haoxuan walked closer and looked carefully, feeling that something was wrong!

The girl seemed to be in a deep sleep due to drunkenness. The smell of alcohol on her body was mixed with the smell of perfume, forming a strange odor, but there was also a faint milky scent in this smell.

Lu Haoxuan naturally wouldn't think this was the girl's natural body scent; this was very likely the smell of a large amount of Yaba (methamphetamine) being inhaled!

At this time, a young police officer with one bar and one star from the Public Security Brigade, who was leading the team at the scene, came to Lu Haoxuan's side and said, "Are you Team Leader Lu?" Lu Haoxuan looked at him and nodded.

After getting Lu Haoxuan's confirmation, the young police officer stood at attention with a "snap" and said, "Hello, Team Leader Lu! I am Jiang Xiaohe, a police officer from the Jiangdong Branch Public Security Brigade!"

Lu Haoxuan was not familiar with this young police officer named Jiang Xiaohe. He nodded and said, "What's the situation? Did you make the call?"

Jiang Xiaohe said, "Yes, Team Leader Lu. We received a report saying that someone intended to cause trouble at the New World. After we came over, we found this girl lying unconscious among a group of small thugs. When I arrived at the scene, this—" he pointed to a young man with a small mustache who was squatting on the ground and shaking his head continuously, "—this kid was putting the girl's underwear back on!

Lu Haoxuan turned his head to look at the mustache, only to see him say with a dazed look and an indifferent face, "Is it illegal for the two of us to be in love? What business is it of yours if I'm playing around with my girlfriend? Hehehehe!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiaohe immediately widened his eyes and shouted, "I didn't let you speak. What are you beeping about there? I suspect you of rape now, so what?"

At this point, Lu Haoxuan understood. The girl was still unconscious from drunkenness, and whether they were a couple or whether it counted as rape was really hard to say. It seemed that this Jiang Xiaohe was a greenhorn!

He gave Jiang Xiaohe a look without changing his expression, signaling him to go out and talk.

This kid was quite smart. He looked at Lu Haoxuan and followed him out of the private room door.

"Tell me, what's going on? Start from when you received the report." Lu Haoxuan asked kindly.

Jiang Xiaohe scratched his head, showing a look of recollection, and said, "I was on the middle shift today. At 9:30 in the evening, the team received a call saying that they saw 'Mustache Yong'—oh, that's the mustache—bringing a few people from society to cause trouble at the New World, saying they were carrying controlled knives. After I heard the feedback from the dispatcher on duty, I brought people over to check. Who knew that as soon as I arrived, I saw Mustache Yong putting that thing on the girl. Would he be that kind? I saw that the girl was drunk and wouldn't know what had been done to her, so I thought we should collect evidence for the girl and accuse this bastard of rape!"

Hu Jinquan, who came over with Lu Haoxuan, couldn't help but say, "Damn! Comrade Little Jiang, you're really something! Besides this, did you find out anything else about them?"

Jiang Xiaohe's eyes widened: "He is suspected of rape. Isn't this a big deal? This definitely requires your Criminal Police Brigade to come forward!"

Lu Haoxuan felt something was wrong. Could this kid have been used by someone? It's just that he didn't find the key to the matter, but instead created an inexplicable "rape case"!

And at this time, on the fifth floor of the New World, in that mysterious place, Chang Huaqiang looked at the yellow-haired youth kneeling on the ground and said lightly, "Xiao Long, you can be considered an old hand at Lühua. For so many years, how have I treated you? Why did you collude with Zhang Shaojie to point out my place?"
