Chapter 569 The Town Is Not Simple
In the hotel, Luna lay on the bed, waiting for her boyfriend Qiao Duo's return. She was not worried because she knew Qiao Duo's strength very well.
More than three hours passed, and there was still no news.
Luna became anxious. She stood up and paced. After waiting for more than five hours, at three o'clock in the morning, Qiao Duo still had not returned. Luna picked up her phone and called Qiao Duo.
After a few rings, the call was directly hung up.
Luna frowned. Although her boyfriend was a playboy, he had never hung up her call intentionally.
Luna called Qiao Duo again, and this time, the phone displayed that Qiao Duo's phone was turned off. Luna finally panicked. She immediately walked out of the hotel and went to Chen Yang and Liu Ran's room.
She knocked on the door.
Liu Ran was already fast asleep inside. Chen Yang sat on the sofa, quietly watching the sleeping Liu Ran. Even at this moment, she was still as beautiful as a flower.
At this moment, a knock sounded from outside. Chen Yang immediately stood up. He was afraid of disturbing Liu Ran. However, Liu Ran had already opened her eyes and sat up.
Since consuming the inner core of that weasel, Liu Ran not only had abundant energy but also her hearing and eyesight had improved considerably.
Liu Ran sat up and asked Chen Yang, "What's wrong, Chen Yang? Who's knocking?"
Chen Yang walked over and shook his head, saying, "I don't know. It's probably Luna and Qiao Duo."
He opened the room door. Luna, wearing a floral dress, walked in and said anxiously, "Liu Ran, something's wrong. My boyfriend hasn't returned since he went out. I'm very worried about him."
Liu Ran immediately asked Luna, "What did he go out for?"
Luna sighed and said, "Qiao Duo said he was going to find evidence. He doesn't think Breg told the truth, so tonight he wanted to go to Breg's workplace to find Mr. Kachi's whereabouts."
"But now he's been out for more than five hours and still hasn't returned. I just called, and the phone directly showed it was turned off. I'm worried something has happened to him."
Upon hearing this, Liu Ran turned to look at Chen Yang. Chen Yang said, "Let's wait a bit longer. Wait another two hours. After daybreak, we'll go to the security office together to look for Qiao Duo. For now, stay in the hotel with peace of mind."
Liu Ran said to Chen Yang, "Chen Yang, could something really have happened? If we delay, what if Qiao Duo has an accident?"
Chen Yang shook his head and said, "It's probably too late for us to go now. More importantly, I don't have absolute confidence in protecting both of you. Now, let's pretend nothing has happened and sleep in the room with peace of mind."
As Chen Yang spoke, he turned off the light and stood by the window, looking out at the hotel. Chen Yang could clearly feel seven or eight pairs of eyes outside the hotel monitoring him.
Of course, although this town of Murphy was special, Chen Yang was not afraid.
His only concern was Liu Ran and Luna beside him, as these two women were just ordinary people.
Chen Yang wanted to protect them completely and had to be cautious.
Chen Yang did not want to take risks, especially when it involved Liu Ran's life. Therefore, he wanted to wait for daybreak and a better opportunity to investigate Qiao Duo's matter and search for Kachi's whereabouts.
The next day, after daybreak, Chen Yang and the other two packed their things. They walked out of the hotel. A Mercedes-Benz was parked downstairs, the same one Qiao Duo had driven before.
Seeing the car, Luna murmured doubtfully, "That's not right. By all logic, Qiao Duo should have driven this car away. Why is it back downstairs at the hotel now?"
Luna shook her head, got into the car. The keys were in the car, but Qiao Duo was nowhere to be found.
Luna gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go ask Breg for clarification."
Luna stepped on the accelerator and drove Chen Yang and Liu Ran straight to the security office.
Upon arriving at the Murphy Town Security Office, Luna strode in angrily. She asked the person on duty, "Where is Qiao Duo? Where is my boyfriend Qiao Duo? What have you done to him?"
The person on duty looked somewhat confused.
At this moment, Breg walked out. He put on a harmless expression and said, "Miss Luna, it's really strange. We haven't seen Mr. Qiao Duo. Why are you so angry and demanding him from us now?"
"He should have been with you yesterday. If something had really happened to him, it would be us investigating you."
Luna opened her mouth upon hearing this, unable to refute. Chen Yang and Liu Ran stood behind her. Chen Yang sniffed, and he could clearly smell the scent of blood, and this scent of blood had appeared last night.
Chen Yang was now very sure that Qiao Duo had died here yesterday. Chen Yang looked at Breg opposite him. Breg was unharmed. According to Luna's description, Qiao Duo should have been an expert, but now he had died without investigating anything.
At this moment, Luna still wanted to request surveillance footage. Chen Yang patted Luna's shoulder and spoke directly in English, "Let's go, Miss Luna. Perhaps Mr. Qiao Duo doesn't like you anymore and has dumped you, going off to have fun by himself."
Liu Ran also held Luna's arm, and the three of them left the security office together. Breg watched the three of them leave and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He lowered his head and sat on the stool, ignoring them.
After getting into the car, Luna said indignantly, "Mr. Chen, what did you mean just now? I'm telling you, although Qiao Duo is annoying, he is a responsible man."
"Since he said last night that he would help you find Mr. Kachi, he would definitely not run away by himself. And even if he disliked me, he would break up with me openly, not leave quietly like this."
Chen Yang shook his head. He drove away from Murphy Town at high speed while explaining to Luna, "I just found an excuse to prevent them from being suspicious."
"This town is not simple."
"I will take you to a safe place first, then I will return to help you find Qiao Duo and Mr. Kachi. But I have to say in advance, it is very likely that Qiao Duo has already met his end in this town."
Luna was stunned for a few seconds upon hearing this. Then she picked up her phone and said angrily, "If that's the case, we should call the police and have others come here to investigate."
Chen Yang shook his head and said, "The other party must have hidden all the evidence. There aren't many surveillance cameras in this town, and the residents are all old. It's not easy to investigate."
As Chen Yang drove away from Murphy Town, he took out his phone and called the nearest sub-branch of the Heavenly Doctor Hall. He asked the people from the Heavenly Doctor Hall to immediately come and escort Liu Ran and Luna and protect them.
Three hours later, after Chen Yang had settled Liu Ran and Luna, he turned the car around and headed straight for Murphy Town.
