Crazy Detective

Chapter 899: A Sudden End

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The reality of the situation was that checking the robbery scene was a ruse, while going to Hot Pot Mutton was Zhao Yu’s real purpose. This was because today’s side adventure would take place in this very restaurant!

Zhao Yu couldn’t think of any other excuses, and since he couldn’t ask Officer Wang and Cui Lizhu to drive him here for no reason, he could only use the excuse of checking the crime scene. However, because he didn’t check the restaurant’s name before now, Zhao Yu almost made a fool of himself and could have even exposed his real purpose for this visit!

Therefore, after entering the restaurant, Zhao Yu was more careful than ever. As he checked the exact location of the side adventure, he realized that it was set to take place in a private room on the second floor, which was already occupied.

Zhao Yu came over to the entryway of the private room in his wheelchair. He wanted to find out who was inside the room. However, although the door was slightly open, he could only hear people talking, but couldn’t see anyone inside. Judging from the voices, it seemed that there were only a few people inside.

Zhao Yu looked at his watch. It was 10 minutes before the side adventure was set to take place. As it was a little early and his past experience had taught him that it was better not to make bold moves before it was time, he had no choice but to wait patiently.

Coincidentally, Cui Lizhu and Officer Wang had just chosen a table that was very close to the private room. So, Zhao Yu joined them and ordered some food.

Zhao Yu’s attention was completely focused on today’s side adventure as he thought to himself... I wonder if it will be related to the Devil Case? He couldn’t imagine how the private room could relate to the Devil Case.

It was approaching six o’clock, so Zhao Yu raised his head and quickly said to Cui Lizhu and Officer Wang, “I need to go to the restroom.”

Officer Wang stood up quickly and said, “Your leg hasn’t recovered. Here, let me help you...”

“Why? How can you help me in the restroom?” Zhao Yu gave him an angry look. “Don’t worry. I just need to wash my hands.”

After that, Zhao Yu rolled away in his wheelchair. When he got to the door of the private room, he saw that he was just in time.

The door of the private room was closed, and as Zhao Yu could not go open it in public, he used a Master Tapping Device. This was a new device, which allowed him to hear what was happening in the room.

This device was very useful. He just activated it, and he could hear even the slightest sound in the room.

Currently, he heard a slightly hoarse man’s voice, “You... Tell me... How did you do it? It’s impossible! How on earth did you learn the magic that my master did not even teach me?”

Zhao Yu didn’t have the slightest idea about what was happening in the room. However, the voice didn’t sound like a total stranger to Zhao Yu.

“Ha ha ha ha...” Then, a woman’s laugh, followed by her soft voice drifted out of the private room, “Master taught us the secret! Did you forget it already? If you can’t see how I did it, you are not a qualified student!”

Zhao Yu was really confused. What are they talking about? And... This woman’s voice really sounds familiar!

The man then said, “Now that you have learned the master’s ultimate magic, tell me the secret! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being cruel to you!

“Ha ha ha ha...” The woman laughed again, then said, “It’s all an illusion. Master knew you were not loyal to him, so he has already thought about this! If you still insist on your willful thoughts, I can’t save you either.”

Unexpectedly, Cui Lizhu’s shouted at Zhao Yu as Zhao Yu was struggling to listen carefully to the conversation inside the private room. “Hey! Boss! What are you doing? Didn’t you need to go wash your hands?”

Zhao Yu was so startled that he almost fell out of his wheelchair.

“What’s wrong with you today?” Cui Lizhu came over to stand beside his wheelchair and asked with a confused look, “Are you still angry with me, or are you struggling with the case? I didn’t offend you in any way, did I? Or, are you jealous of Officer Wang?”

“What nonsense!” Zhao Yu could think of nothing else to say at the moment, so he thought of a random excuse. “I lost some money right around here! Help me find it!”

Cui Lizhu doubted this, and as she stood right in front of the door of the private room, she asked, “How much did you lose?”

Before Cui Lizhu’s voice fell, the door of the private room opened!

Dam*! Zhao Yu felt threatened at once, and he reached his hand to touch his gun.

At that moment, a small man came out of the room, and he could not help but step back suddenly when he saw Cui Lizhu standing at the door. Cui Lizhu was also surprised when she saw this man.

Huh? What is happening? It was now Zhao Yu’s turn to be confused. He didn’t expect that the man in the room and Cui Lizhu would know each other.

While Zhao Yu was still in shock, Cui Lizhu suddenly picked up a beer bottle from the next table, then rushed into the private room like a flying arrow. Before Zhao Yu could come into the room, he heard the sound of a bottle hitting a person’s head inside the private room!

“She’s crazy!” the woman in the room screamed.

Only then did Zhao Yu see that Cui Lizhu had hit the man with the bottle. Now, blood was running down the man’s forehead.

“It’s okay. I’m alright!” The man said. He did not fight back, but covered his head, while shouting, “Cui Lizhu, are you satisfied now? If this is not enough for you, try me again! If I frown even once...”

The man was shouting indignantly, but when he saw Zhao Yu, his eyes opened wide and he immediately said hello to Zhao Yu excitedly, “Hey, Leader Zhao, what’s up? What are you doing here in Tongjiang, and what happened to your legs?”

Zhao Yu finally recognized the man, and as he quietly put his pistol back into its holster, he greeted him, “Ma Laodan, what are you doing here?”

It turned out that this man was Ma Laodan, who Zhao Yu had met in Jin’an. Later, because of the Hasty Murder Case, Ma Laodan had been shot in the nursing home where Tao Xiang was staying.

“Yes... It’s me!” Ma Laodan patted the woman beside him in a hurry and said, “Meili, let me introduce you to Leader Zhao. Do you remember him? This is the policeman who saved us! If it hadn’t been for him, we wouldn’t be here today!”

“Oh!” The woman immediately recognized Zhao Yu and bowed to him as she said, “You are Zhao Yu! You saved us!”

Only then did Zhao Yu realize that he had met the woman before. She was Ma Laodan’s girlfriend, and her name was Song Meili.

Once, Zhao Yu had accidentally rescued the naked Ma Laodan and Song Mei from a car. When he had loosened Song Meili’s ropes, he had a good look at her body. So, he surely hadn’t forgotten her!

“Wonderful! We owe you a big one, and I was wondering when I would get to repay my debt of gratitude!” Ma Laodan said before he burst out laughing.

He then said, “Now that we have bumped into each other today, I must take advantage of this opportunity. This meal is on me!”

Ma Laodan laughed, while acting as if nothing had happened to his head. Upon seeing this, Cui Lizhu threw away the remaining half of the bottle, her face still full of rage.

Zhao Yu remembered that Ma Laodan had told him that he used to fancy Cui Lizhu and wanted to take her down using his money, but had never succeeded in doing so. So, Zhao Yu thought that Ma Laodan must have used some other terrible means, which would explain why Cui Lizhu threw the bottle at him just now!

But, Zhao Yu still couldn’t understand today’s side adventure, and he wondered... Is it just about a wine bottle?

Suddenly, Zhao Yu remembered another thing... The hexagram that he opened today was a Gen Li hexagram. Li represented friends or friendship. However, it seemed that the system’s definition of Li was quite different.

As Zhao Yu thought about the hexagram, he suddenly remembered what Ma Laodan and Song Mei had said just now. There were only two of them in the room, so what did they mean by that just now?

“Ah, hero, please accompany me in pursuit of my dream...” At that moment, Zhao Yu’s mobile phone rang suddenly. It was Miao Ying.

As Zhao Yu was in a wheelchair, it was not convenient for him to leave now. So, he just answered the phone in front of them.

“Zhao Yu...” Over the phone, Miao Ying’s voice seemed surprisingly calm. “You can take a rest now because the Devil Case is over! In Lang Xiangyang’s home, we found conclusive evidence to prove that Lang Xiangyang is the real murderer from the Devil Case!”
