Chapter 612: The young master can hear thoughts again! 28

Moreover, why did that killer look back at him! It definitely wasn't a coincidence!

Could it be that on that night back then, the killer also knew he was standing behind the tree!

This realization left Duan Huzi unable to stand steady.

He intended to bring up resigning the next morning, but the butler said he hadn't seen him come out to work at all the previous night, and Duan Huzi asked a few coworkers, who all said they saw him sleeping that night.

At that time, Duan Huzi remembered he had drunk a bit the previous night, but according to his memory, after drinking he had only dozed off briefly before heading out.

But several coworkers said he hadn't left the house at all that night.

In a daze, Duan Huzi gradually forgot about it, thinking it was just a nightmare, but whenever he woke at midnight, he would always recall that figure.

"That's all I know…… I don't even know if what happened two years ago was an illusion, but it's damn real!"

Jin Chen glanced out the window, his expression unchanged.

"Fine, take this card and leave the Fu Family right now."

"What…?"

Duan Huzi was surprised, suddenly realized something, jerked his head around, and stared in terror out the window.

"You mean……"

"If you don't want to be silenced, leave immediately, go out through the Main Gate."

"Go go go!! I'm leaving!"

Duan Huzi didn't have time to worry about luggage, grabbed the card, picked up his phone, and ran out in a panic.

Jin Chen quietly watched his back, threw off the covers, and sat up on the bed.

Five minutes later, the window was pushed open, and a lithe figure slipped inside.

He brandished a knife, but as he turned, his eyes met Jin Chen's gaze, his pupils contracted, and he instinctively bolted outward!

What agility!

Jin Chen inwardly marveled and gave chase.

He wanted to observe the person's back, to see if it matched Fu Muci's memory and the killer described by Duan Huzi, so he deliberately slowed his steps.

The two pursued one after the other without making much noise.

"Who's there?"

A voice suddenly came from the side stairwell, and a flashlight beam swept over.

Startled, he ran toward the corner at the far end.

But Jin Chen was stopped by the butler who had arrived.

"Doctor Jin?"

The butler looked puzzled: "It's so late, what are you doing out in the outer room? Didn't the master tell you to stay next to the young master?"

Jin Chen glanced at the butler, recalling what Aunt Song had said—that she somewhat believed there was something fishy about the incident years ago—and spoke bluntly: "I'm chasing someone; he's very strange."

Sure enough, the butler's expression startled, and he hurriedly looked that way, lowering his voice: "Doctor Jin, you…… know?"

Although Jin Chen didn't know what he was referring to, he guessed it was about those broken things, and nodded: "The urgent thing is to catch that person; where does the corridor corner lead?"

"It's the warehouse at the end!"

The butler hurried forward: "Come with me!"

The two walked forward down the corridor, and indeed it only led to the warehouse.

The rolling door was slightly open, as if someone had moved it.

"This……"

Jin Chen pressed the butler's hand to keep him quiet, stepped close, placed his hand on the rolling door, and listened silently for any sound inside.

Indeed, there was the sound of breathing.

In the butler's astonished gaze, he shoved the heavy rolling door open with one hand.

"Doctor Jin, you really are…… strong as an ox."

The butler struggled to find a fitting description.

You know, opening this warehouse door normally takes three strong men.

"Nobody inside?"

The butler switched on the warehouse light; it was dusty, holding tools not usually used, yet he saw no one.

"No, he's still here."

Jin Chen looked toward the broken cabinet where one could curl up.

He took two steps forward and kicked it.

The person inside couldn't hide; as the cabinet broke open, he tried to stab with a knife, but Jin Chen was quick-eyed and quick-handed, kicked away the dagger, then struck an elbow to the vital point, grabbed the collar and subdued him in a reverse hold.

The butler stared, dazed.

"This! Is he a psychologist or a police officer hiding in their household!"

"Doctor Jin, wait for me! I'll go get the master! This person must be dealt with seriously!"

The butler shone his flashlight on the man's face a few times, got a clear look, then hurried out, his steps extremely fast.

"What's the point of struggling? Can you even get away?"

Seeing the man wasn't being cooperative, Jin Chen grabbed his head and slammed it into the cabinet corner, waiting until he submitted before continuing to question.

"You don't look like the killer from back then; what's your purpose in infiltrating the Fu Family?"

Even so, Jin Chen remained calm, with a detached air, as if standing outside the incident.

Precisely because of that feeling, the man captured by him could anticipate that tonight's events might not stay under his control.

"Get lost…… I'll never tell you!"

The man's forehead was split open and bleeding from the impact, yet he hoarsely resisted, his expression utterly blank.

Jin Chen sensed something was off.

He released the man, staring intently at his face.

"Psychological suggestion..."

When was the suggestion implanted?

Jin Chen's expression shifted slightly, finally bewilderment spread.

"Pah!"

That man spat out a mouthful of bloody foam, in front of Jin Chen, his rough fingers picked up a knife from the ground and tried to stab his own chest.

Jin Chen finally understood what he intended to do.

Earlier the steward went out to call for help; soon someone would come, as long as this man died here, if ultimately investigated and found unrelated to the past incident.

He inexplicably appeared in the outer room tonight; he is the murderer.

What a fine frame-up.

Even unwilling to spare a human life to serve as the cause of disaster.

Jin Chen showed no reaction, corner of his mouth curled, coldly watching him commit suicide.

【0731, handle surveillance cameras along the way.】

【Understood.】

Soon footsteps sounded outside the corridor, more than one person.

Jin Chen used his toe to lift that man's chin, looking down at him near death, "I'll show you a magic trick."

Next second, Jin Chen snapped his fingers, his figure vanished inside the room, leaving no trace.

"Uh... ho!"

That man was horrified to the extreme, clutching the knife in his chest, trying to crawl forward, finally stared wide-eyed, lost breath, collapsed on the ground rolling once.

Everyone rushed in at this moment.

"Heavens!"

The security team captain who rushed in first exclaimed, "Who killed him?!"

"Quick! Quick, go find someone!"

He found the steward and the awakened Fu Zhenhua, "There's a corpse in the warehouse! But I didn't see anyone else."

"What?!"

The steward looked over in surprise, seeing only that man collapsed on the ground with a knife lodged in his chest.

Could it be that Doctor Jin he...

The steward's eyelid twitched, also hearing the security team captain order all patrol personnel to go out to look for the murderer, he hurriedly told Fu Zhenhua that this was the person who mysteriously broke into the Fu Family.

While Fu Zhenhua was handling the corpse, the steward hurried back, he must find Doctor Jin in advance!

However, along the way no one was seen, as if evaporated from the human world.
