Chapter 452: The Four Detectives Reunite
Chapter 452: The Four Detectives Reunite
Two police officers arrived and began asking about what had happened.Jiang Ran and the manager, Mao Li Zhishu, recounted everything they knew from beginning to end.
After that, the two police officers started checking the surveillance footage, but as usual, the cameras were broken.
They said they still hadn't been repaired.
It didn't matter. The group took the elevator to the fourth floor.
They went to Room 404 to check the specific situation.
Upon arriving at 404,
they discovered the security door, utterly destroyed and in a pitiful state.
Following that was a large pile of miscellaneous items at the entrance.
And standing right in the living room, staring back at them, was a man in his fifties.
The detective in his fifties had only dared to crawl out from under the bed after the commotion outside had ceased for a while. He had just reached the living room when he ran into Jiang Ran and the others who had entered.
When he first saw Jiang Ran and his group, he was quite panicked, but upon spotting the two people in police uniforms over there, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
"We came this time because we received reports from two people."
"And are you the other one?"
One of the police officers asked the detective in his fifties.
He nodded. "That's right, it's me."
Next, the two police officers questioned the detective in his fifties about basic information like his name and occupation, as well as what had happened.
Why he had called the police.
The detective in his fifties certainly couldn't say he was a detective. He only said he was unemployed.
He claimed to be a relative of the original tenants of 404, temporarily without a place to stay, and they had let him live here for a while.
As for why he called the police, he said he was at home when he suddenly heard someone violently breaking down the door outside. He asked who was there, but the person outside didn't respond, so he got scared.
After calling the police, he hid under the bed.
He only dared to come out after the noise outside had stopped.
And when he came out, he saw you all.
The two police officers completed a simple investigation, took photos for evidence, and then left Alice Apartment.
Both sides seemed accustomed to this.
After all, the apartment's surveillance cameras were always in a broken state.
After the two police officers left, the manager Mao Li Zhishu, along with Captain Gao and the two young security guards, followed them downstairs to see them off.
Jiang Ran, however, stayed behind in 404.
He looked around the apartment.
He realized the extent of damage to this apartment was much greater than what his own apartment had suffered last time.
He clicked his tongue. "This marital home is pretty much ruined."
He didn't ask the detective in his fifties in front of him whether he was a relative of his ex-girlfriend Shen Xing or of Shen Xing's boyfriend, Zhou Wu.
It was better to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Originally, he had planned to take photos and send them to Shen Xing, asking if she knew her marital home had been destroyed.
But in the end, he stuck to the principle of avoiding unnecessary trouble.
Who knows, his ex-girlfriend might latch onto him again.
As Jiang Ran was leaving 404, the detective in his fifties followed him out.
Of course, he was also carrying several suitcases, containing luggage like changes of clothes for him and the other three people who had been staying there.
Jiang Ran watched as the detective in his fifties also prepared to leave.
He shook his head helplessly.
Sure enough, relatives could really screw you over. Even though it wasn't his fault, he still bore some responsibility. And when trouble hit, he just ran away.
Jiang Ran returned to the first floor.
The detective in his fifties also reached the first floor.
After arriving, Jiang Ran watched him drag several suitcases out of Alice Apartment.
After witnessing that, he began looking for the manager, Mao Li Zhishu.
He discovered the guy was in the management office reading a book, and it was still those Cherry Blossom Country erotic manga.
He walked over and said angrily, "Manager, you still have the leisure to read?"
Manager Mao Li Zhishu adjusted the glasses on his face, which he had gotten from who-knows-where, pretending to be a scholar.
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Ran said irritably, "Such a major incident just happened! Three ghost-face mask people, three terrorists of that sort, running rampant in our apartment! This seriously endangers the safety of our apartment residents!"
"You definitely have to resolve this!"
Jiang Ran was genuinely afraid. What if tonight while he was sleeping, the three ghost-face mask people came to his doorstep to sharpen their knives?
Manager Mao Li Zhishu let out a deep sigh. "You also know this matter isn't so easy to resolve!"
"Alright then, wait until the Building No. 2 manager arrives this afternoon. We'll discuss with him how exactly to handle this situation!!!"
Jiang Ran sighed.
He looked back outside the apartment. Speaking of which, since those white ghost-face mask people left, who knew where they had actually gone.
In the Neighbors Over Distant Relatives live stream room.
Regarding the morning's chase drama,
many people had witnessed it firsthand.
Although it was indeed quite thrilling, a whole morning's chase drama with no one getting killed off,
and no bloodshed seen, left these live stream viewers feeling it still wasn't satisfying enough.
It seemed only people's pleas for mercy and their agonized expressions before death could excite this group whose excitement threshold was getting higher and higher.
Middle-aged Uncle: [Do you guys feel like the white ghost-face mask people are more numerous than we imagined? Feels like they've formed an organization.]
Fairy Sister: [Yes, yes, yes! I was about to say that too. How did even that doctor become one of them?]
I am the Hero: [Don't mention that middle-aged male doctor. Got ganged up on and beaten by those three, completely lost any cool factor.]
Domineering Female CEO: [Not all deranged criminals, deranged serial killers, are the type with explosive combat prowess.]
[If you really look into all kinds of deranged serial killers in the world, you'll find many of them use underhanded tricks and sneak attacks, no martial virtue at all.]
Little Aunt: [Heard about it? The Building No. 2 manager is coming this afternoon. Wonder what kind of person they are.]
Evil Wolf: [No idea. All I know is, once Building No. 2 is fully furnished and more deranged criminals, deranged serial killers move in, it's only going to get more brutal. More people means more chaos.]
...
The detective in his fifties, dragging several suitcases, left Alice Apartment and contacted his apprentice and the other two.
The four of them met up at a deserted street corner.
The detective in his fifties returned their suitcases to them.
Liu Qingxuan took his own suitcase and asked his master how he had safely survived the crisis? Did the people violently breaking down the door not go after him?
Was their whole worry for nothing?
The detective in his fifties said it wasn't for nothing;he had hidden under the bed.
Liu Qingxuan instantly fell silent.
The young detective, holding his own red suitcase, still seemed a bit dazed. He said, "What should we do next?"
They had saved one Li Mengmeng, then suddenly faced inexplicable people violently breaking down their door.
This completely disrupted everyone's plans.
The detective in his fifties sighed. "That apartment is too lawless."
"So, contact the client. I'm giving up."
The other three didn't say anything.
Liu Qingxuan was the apprentice, so he naturally supported his master's idea.
The young detective, after being chased like that, certainly didn't dare to go investigate alone anymore.
As for Little Sherlock Holmes, he looked up at the sky and said, "I want to ask, who exactly were the people violently breaking down the door? Did any of you see them?"
Little Sherlock Holmes, Liu Qingxuan, and the young detective had been running the entire time.
Apart from encountering one white ghost-face mask person blocking their way with a riot fork, they hadn't seen who was chasing them at all.
The detective in his fifties said, "I didn't see them either. But after I came out from under the bed, I met those police officers, the apartment management personnel, and security guards."
"They did witness who was violently breaking down the door."
