Chapter 216: Mysterious Disappearance
Lu Xianzhi looked around worriedly.
An Yan knew what he was worried about. “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu. The person following you is no longer there.”
Lu Xianzhi nodded, feeling confused and uneasy. However, he still followed him.
Third Master Jun?
Why was he looking for him? He did not remember meeting him or offending him.
“I think you need this, Mr. Lu!” Jun Shiyan smiled as he took a sip of tea.
Lu Xianzhi looked at the thick stack of documents. They were all evidence of Zhao Hong’s crimes in the past few years. Every single one of them was enough to doom her, but they could not utterly destroy her. “Third Master, why are you helping me?”
He knew that this evidence was precious and hard to come by. No matter what Zhao Hong did, she did it in a watertight manner that left virtually no evidence.
Besides, he had never dreamed that Sheng Sheng’s husband would be the famous Third Master Jun of the capital. Although he was shocked, his face remained calm.
Huo Ci had a feud with the Third Master. How had he agreed to let Sheng Sheng marry his enemy?
“You are a smart person, Mr. Lu. I don’t think I need to spell this out for you!” Jun Shiyan pushed a cup of tea toward him and nodded slightly. “Please, Mr. Lu. I’ll need your help with the rest of this matter.”
“Third Master, to be honest, Zhao Hong is very cautious. Some people do things that violate the law. Even if we catch her tail, she could escape unscathed and blame this on her subordinates.” Of course, Lu Xianzhi knew that he was doing this for Sheng Sheng. His heart felt strangely bitter as he said, “I don’t have the ability to investigate deeper into the things you told me.”
“You have the ability to find other evidence, though, right?” Jun Shiyan knew that he had been looking for evidence of Zhao Hong’s crimes. He was not the person closest to her, so he could not discover her most perverted, cruel, and private crimes.
Zhao Hong had been looking for men similar to Second Yan to train them as his substitute. If their looks and personalities were similar, they would become her exclusive property.
Some of these men existed for a month, some for two months, and some for less than half a year. In the end, they all disappeared mysteriously, and the people who appeared beside her were always new faces.
In the past, he had not cared because he had promised Second Yan that as long as she did not go overboard, he would not touch her.
Now, she had already offended him. Since he had not attacked her directly, he had fulfilled his promise to Second Yan.
“Third Master, what do you need me to do?” Lu Xianzhi knew that she had killed someone, but he did not know where she had killed them or how she had dealt with them.
“Since you’ve chosen to follow Zhao Hong, you must have realized this already! You need to use yourself as bait in this case.” Jun Shiyan gave him the information An Yan had brought. “You can imitate the words and actions of the higher-ups, but you need to progress gradually. Unless I’m wrong, she will personally lead you to the evidence.”
Zhao Hong was looking for someone who looked like Second Yan, yet she did not allow anyone to resemble Second Yan. As long as they subconsciously seemed like Second Yan, they would anger her.
“May I ask if this person is the man Zhao Hong loves?” Lu Xianzhi’s eyes turned colder as he flipped through the information. His hand, which was holding the piece of paper, started to tremble uncontrollably.
His last memory was a memory of Zhao Hong stabbing his heart like a madman. Then, she had smiled ferociously and stabbed him again. “You’re not him. You’re not allowed to imitate him. You’re not worthy. None of you are!”
