Chapter 2048: Investigating the Case

The bodyguard's words made Qiao Feiyun panic for a moment.

He subconsciously pursued and asked, "Who are the people who died?!"

The bodyguard shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."

After speaking, he couldn't care about talking more with Qiao Feiyun and walked away hurriedly.

Qiao Feiyun's brain spun at high speed subconsciously. He secretly thought in his heart, "Fei Haoyang has actually gone missing. Who on earth did this? What is the situation with those few Iga ninjas? Could the people who died be them?"

For Qiao Feiyun, he never thought that the eight Iga ninjas he found would make a move on Fei Haoyang.

Therefore, he speculated in his heart that Fei Haoyang was likely kidnapped by other enemies.

Qiao Feiyun had done many heartless things in his life, but he could pat his chest and swear to the whole world that Fei Haoyang's disappearance had absolutely nothing to do with him.

He also rarely encountered anything that could make him have a clear conscience like this matter.

Therefore, he wasn't worried at all that Fei Haoyang's disappearance would have anything to do with him. The only thing he was worried about was that if Fei Haoyang really had an accident, he might temporarily lose his protection.

In that case, if the murderer who killed his brother was still hunting him, he might be in big trouble.

However, Qiao Feiyun thought about it again and felt that he shouldn't need to worry too much for the time being.

After all, he was living in the Fei family right now, and everything had been peaceful these days, which proved that the other party hadn't been able to find the Fei family yet, and he was currently safe.

Therefore, what he needed to do next was to continue to hang out in the Fei family as much as possible, regardless of whether Fei Haoyang could return safely.

This wasn't a difficult task for Qiao Feiyun, because Fei Haoyang had arranged for him to stay in that villa where the Fei family members had already moved out. That villa was vacant, so as long as he stayed in it, the Fei family members probably wouldn't pay attention to him.

Even if they paid attention, it didn't matter. He could completely tell the Fei family members openly and honestly that he was Fei Haoyang's friend. The Fei family probably wouldn't kick him out either.

Thinking of this, Qiao Feiyun's mentality also eased a bit.

And at the same time, the Fei family's Wangfu Hotel.

The New York police had already gathered all the staff of the banquet hall.

Li Yalin concluded that there must be an inside man for the Japanese ninjas among them, and the top priority now was to find this inside man.

And Li Yalin's method was also very simple and crude. He didn't follow the normal process of finding the person in charge, Chen Fu, to understand the situation first, but treated Chen Fu as one of the suspects, gathering him together with other staff members.

In this way, he didn't need to listen to anyone's one-sided words and directly found the problem from the crowd.

Li Yalin's method was to have his police subordinates take a few high-definition front-facing photos of each person first. Subsequently, he had someone pick one person from these people, take him to the next room, let him look at everyone's photos, and ask him if there was anyone among the people present who he clearly saw today but was not at the scene now.

If the other party said no, he would temporarily take him to a corner, guarded by police officers, and not allow him to communicate with anyone. In this way, it guaranteed that he couldn't collude with others.

The first dozen people questioned were all formal employees of the Wangfu Hotel, and when Chen Fu arranged for Hattori Kazuo and the others to come in, he also intentionally let them not have any contact with the old employees, so these old employees didn't see that eight people were missing from the scene.

Soon, the questioning reached a temporary worker who had just been hired to help today.

This temporary worker was a young Chinese person. He was originally an international student at an ordinary university in New York. His family had smashed pots and sold iron to send him abroad to study, hoping he could achieve something. But he didn't expect that after coming to the United States, he gradually lost himself, immersed in drinking and feasting every day, and eventually squandered the tuition fees his parents had remitted to him.

Because he couldn't pay the tuition, he was naturally expelled by the school.

According to the policy of international student visas in the United States, once expelled by the school, the visa would become invalid. In this situation, according to the normal process, he could only leave the United States first and then think of a way.

However, this young man didn't have the face to go home and face his parents, so he went black in New York.

Being a black household wasn't easy. He didn't have a fixed job or a fixed residence. To survive, he spent every day in an internet cafe in Chinatown, eating and living in the internet cafe every day, earning living expenses by helping others play games and doing odd jobs.

Once the income from playing games wasn't enough, he would come out to find a daily-paid odd job to do, earn enough money to continue plunging into the internet cafe, and when he had no money, he would come out to work again.

At this time, he was standing in the conference room with others, waiting for the police to question them one by one.

However, he was particularly nervous in his heart at this time, because he was different from others. His visa had long been invalid, and now he belonged to the category of illegal immigrants. Once discovered by the police, he would definitely be handed over to the immigration bureau for processing, and the immigration bureau only had one solution for black households like him, which was deportation.
