Chapter 362: The Case of the Missing Inspector

Liu Rusi sighed softly and said, "From the day I promised Tian Dan to establish an intelligence organization in Hong Kong, I decided to make a clean break with He Yuzhu."

"What?" Pingping was startled. "But didn't Tian Dan ask you to do this so that you two could be together? How did this turn into a shackle instead? Miss, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you really are holding a golden rice bowl while begging for food!"

Liu Rusi gave a bitter smile, her eyes slightly reddening: "If He Yuzhu knew I was in danger here, do you think... he would stay to keep me company? But if he stays, besides being a gang leader, what else could he do?"

Pingping thought silently for a long time before nodding slowly.

"Actually, I've known his feelings for a long time," Liu Rusi said in a low voice. "Since we were twelve or thirteen, it was never a relationship between siblings... it was more like lovers. It's just that I refused to admit it."

"Now that I think about it, it really is..." Pingping said softly, "He actually told me several times that he liked you, but I never dared to tell you."

Liu Rusi suddenly smiled, "Better to forget each other in the rivers and lakes than to moisten each other with spit—that's well said!"

Pingping bit her lip tightly, "But every time I think of him being with another woman, my heart feels stifled. I really want to... slaughter that woman."

Liu Rusi shook her head, her tone firm: "Whatever should be let go, just let it go."

Zhao Ying came to the hotel to find He Yuzhu.

As soon as she entered the room and saw Zhang Shuying, her expression darkened.

She grabbed He Yuzhu and dragged him into the inner room, closed the door, picked up a pillow, and started hitting He Yuzhu over the head with it, "You little brat, you really are no good! You keep saying you're coming to find your sister, but the moment you arrive, you're with another woman!"

He Yuzhu let her hit him, "Sister, what do you think Liu Rusi is trying to do? She's actually quite heartless toward me. The first time I confessed, I was rejected... She even deliberately tortured me, pretending to be in a relationship with the Chief Engineer of the Bicycle Factory... Later, when we finally got together, I couldn't get the introduction letter... She didn't even give me a chance to explain, just left a letter and walked away... Is this fair to me? I'm not looking for her anymore..."

Zhao Ying threw down the pillow in her hand... "Even if she has issues, you can't just turn around and find another woman!"

"I've been with Zhang Shuying longer than I was with her."

"Forget it, I believe you." Zhao Ying suddenly turned serious, "You said you were going to deal with Lv Le, why haven't you made a move yet? That bastard has been extremely arrogant these past few days; he actually came to ask me for shares in the Eastern Shipping Company!"

"On what grounds?"

"He said since we gave 5% of the shares to Biao Shu of the Triad, he wants the same amount, and he even started getting handsy with me..." Zhao Ying suddenly shed tears and hugged He Yuzhu from behind, "Kid, you have to help me. There are some things I can't tell others..."

"Damn him! Bullying my family—Sister, don't worry, within three days, I'll kill him!"

"I believe you." Zhao Ying smiled, "Remember, even though Xiao Si doesn't want you anymore, I will always be your sister..."

He Yuzhu nodded vigorously.

After the two settled the details, Zhao Ying left in a hurry, not even glancing at Zhang Shuying as she departed.

Once she was gone, Zhang Shuying said coldly, "That is not a good woman!"

He Yuzhu gave a faint smile: "Like your father, she used to be in the Bald Party."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuying immediately shut her mouth.

The next morning, He Yuzhu went to Temple Street to perform as usual with Zhang Shuying.

There weren't many people watching the performance today, perhaps scared off by the gang warfare of the past few days.

Just as He Yuzhu was preparing to pack up, five black men ran quickly toward them like a black whirlwind.

Zhang Shuying hurriedly grabbed He Yuzhu and whispered, "Are these people here to rob us?"

He Yuzhu looked and smiled. When they got close, he stepped forward and punched each of them: "How did you find this place?"

Martin excitedly hugged He Yuzhu and shook him hard, "Our ship just docked, we came to get something to eat, and Barkley said he saw you. I didn't believe it..."

He Yuzhu smiled and said, "Zhao Ying and I asked about you, and they said you had gone out to sea... My girlfriend, Zhang Shuying."

Martin and the others hurriedly bowed: "Hello, Sister-in-law!"

Zhang Shuying nodded, still a bit shaken: "Hello..."

Martin said enthusiastically: "Come on, I'll treat you to roast pigeon!"

"I have things to do this afternoon..." He Yuzhu said, feeling a bit awkward.

Martin pulled him hard and wouldn't let go, "Just a quick bite, it won't take much time!"

He Yuzhu nodded.

After eating, He Yuzhu left them his contact information and said goodbye.

He Yuzhu took Zhang Shuying to the Ai Du Building to pick up the keys.

Zhang Shuying was incredibly excited holding the keys and insisted on dragging He Yuzhu inside to inspect the apartment. Once they were through the door, she clung to him, and after a long period of intimacy, she finally let him leave.

When He Yuzhu arrived at the meeting place, he was already late, and Zhao Ying was waiting impatiently: "Why are you only just arriving? You're almost half an hour late."

He Yuzhu chuckled: "Today, the apartment at Ai Du Building was handed over, so I was delayed for a bit."

Zhao Ying lowered her voice and said, "Lv Le is a very cautious person and will bring people with him. I arranged to have dinner and sign the contract with him at the Queen's Hotel... He said he wants to get a room with me..."

"Sister, don't worry, I have plenty of ways to kill him," He Yuzhu said easily.

"He's not a simple man; you need to think of a plan..." Zhao Ying instructed.

"Isn't he just a Chinese Detective? If we kill him and dump him in 14K territory, we can frame them for it; no one will ever suspect you." He Yuzhu looked relaxed.

Zhao Ying wanted to say something but stopped herself. Although she knew He Yuzhu acted without considering the consequences, with Lv Le pressing in step by step, there really was no other way.

"... Fine, do as you say."

Not long after the two arrived at the Queen's Hotel, a man of medium build with delicate features arrived at the private room with two followers.

"I am here to discuss business with Miss Zhao, get out!" Lv Le said rudely to He Yuzhu.

"I can stay in the room and pour drinks for you both!" He Yuzhu said fawningly.

"Not necessary!" Lv Le scolded sharply, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Alright, alright!" He Yuzhu bowed and left.

As soon as he stepped out, he was kicked by the two policemen following Lv Le, "You loser, you have no sense at all!"

Inside the private room, after a few pleasantries, Lv Le began to get restless.

He first leaned in toward Zhao Ying and put his arm around her shoulder. Seeing she didn't resist violently, his hand slid down to her waist.

Zhao Ying's body stiffened, and just as she was about to speak, that hand had already slid toward her thigh.

"Bastard!" Zhao Ying couldn't take it anymore, jerked away, and backhanded a crisp slap across Lv Le's face.

Lv Le was caught off guard, his face burning with pain, "You stinking woman! You were the one who asked me out; what's the difference between doing business in a private room and getting a hotel room? What are you acting so high and mighty for!"

"I'm here to talk business with you! Who said I wanted to do that kind of filthy thing with you!" Zhao Ying cursed.

Outside the door, He Yuzhu saw the conflict inside clearly through Scanning.

He thought to himself: Plans really can't keep up with changes; I originally wanted to kill him on the street after finishing dinner and leaving, but looking at it now, I really can't wait until then.

Beside him, two of Lv Le's lackeys pressed their ears against the private room door, listening to the commotion inside, and revealed lewd smiles.

He Yuzhu lowered his voice and asked, "Is your Boss often like this?"

The two chuckled, and one of them licked his lips: "You bet... sometimes after he's done playing, he even rewards us brothers with a taste."

"Do you want to try it today?" He Yuzhu's eyes turned slightly cold.

"Of course I do! This broad has plenty of kick..." Before the words were finished, He Yuzhu saw no one around and immediately pulled the two into his space.

He Yuzhu pushed open the private room door with one shove.

He saw Lv Le strangling Zhao Ying's neck; He Yuzhu punched him in the back of the head, and his eyes rolled back as he collapsed limply to the ground.

"Sister, leave quickly, I'll handle things here," He Yuzhu said quickly.

Although Zhao Ying was still shaken, she knew the situation was urgent and hurriedly straightened her disheveled dress, "I'll go outside and wait for you!"

After saying this, she walked quickly out of the private room.

He Yuzhu confirmed she had gone far away, checked Lv Le's nose and mouth, and seeing he was still breathing, he put him into his space.

He walked to the street via the fire escape and discovered that Zhao Ying was being blocked by two police officers.

He Yuzhu hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why are you two Police Officers blocking my sister?"

A bearded Police Officer said, "We are Inspector Lv's attendants; we know he came to see Miss Zhao, so why hasn't he come out?"

He Yuzhu thought: "Damn, this bastard actually left a secret sentry!"

"The Inspector met an acquaintance, and after signing the contract with our General Manager Zhao, he went over there to drink!" He Yuzhu made up a lie.

"What you said doesn't match, does it?" The bearded man sneered.
