Chapter 557: Zhou Li was abducted by the flower-picking thief 7 times

"Captain Su, I need you to send more people over here," Ning Xin’er’s voice sounded somewhat urgent over the phone.

Su Zhenggang frowned and asked with full of puzzlement, "What’s the situation?"

"Leng Xuan attempted to harm and murder someone, and he also threatened police officers, and now he has escaped, so I need more manpower to catch him and bring him back to the station."

"Leng Xuan?" Su Zhenggang asked, "Who did he try to harm?"

"A student, named Huang Xiaojun."

Hearing this from Ning Xin’er, Su Zhenggang roughly understood the cause of the matter and said directly, "Alright, bring Huang Xiaojun back to the station and detain him, I’ll personally handle it later, and don’t worry about Leng Xuan’s matter anymore."

"But..." Ning Xin’er obviously felt dissatisfied and tried to argue her case, but Su Zhenggang simply wouldn’t give her the chance, "Come back immediately, this is an order." After that, he hung up the phone.

Listening to the dial tone from the phone, Ning Xin’er was a bit stunned. What was going on with Captain Su? Shaking her head, she bit her teeth angrily, resentful that Leng Xuan had made her lose face in front of her subordinates, and muttered to herself, "Leng Xuan, just you wait, I’ll make you pay, hmph."

No sooner had Leng Xuan exited the hotel than he couldn’t help but sneeze. Someone must be cursing him behind his back. Just then, the sound of a ringing cell phone broke his thoughts; glancing down, he realized it wasn’t his own phone ringing but Zhou Li’s, with the incoming call from Zhou Jingpeng.

Leng Xuan hesitated. Answering would certainly give away his position to Zhou Jingpeng, but not answering, given Zhou Jingpeng’s years of experience in the military, would surely lead to suspicion. As he wavered, the ringing ended. However, not even a few minutes had passed when the ringtone sounded again.

Leng Xuan let out a wry smile and decided not to answer. It was better to keep the matter hidden as long as possible to prevent Zhou Jingpeng from worrying. But clearly, Leng Xuan had underestimated Zhou Jingpeng’s persistence—the phone started ringing again, and Leng Xuan quickly realized this time the calls were coming to his own phone.

Looking at the screen, it was indeed Zhou Jingpeng. The guy was not stupid at all, thinking to call his phone when he couldn’t reach his sister’s. It seemed he had to answer this time no matter what.

"Hello! What’s the matter?"

Zhou Jingpeng asked straightforwardly, "Leng Xuan, is my sister in trouble?"

"Why would you say that?"

"Simple," Zhou Jingpeng analyzed, "You had called earlier to ask if my sister had come home. Just now, I called her phone and nobody answered. Putting it together, I figure either you two were out on a date and separated because of a quarrel, or my sister is in trouble. And knowing my sister, no matter what, she absolutely wouldn’t ignore my calls."

"Sigh," Leng Xuan sighed with a bitter smile, "True to being from Dark Sword, you can infer so much from these small clues. Alright, I won’t hide it from you; your sister is indeed in trouble. She’s been kidnapped, and I’m currently searching for her."

"What?" Zhou Jingpeng exclaimed in shock, "Kidnapped by whom? Dammit, I’ll make them pay."

"Alright, you don’t need to get involved in this, leave it to me," Leng Xuan said calmly. He needed to appear composed to put Zhou Jingpeng at ease. Moreover, if he couldn’t handle this situation himself, what use would Zhou Jingpeng be if he came?"
