Chapter 548 Tiger Cub Disappears (1)
"Big Cousin!" Liu Chunsheng's voice preceded his arrival.
Luo Ning pricked up his ears, waiting for Liu Chunsheng to continue.
Liu Chunsheng rushed in and shook his head at her, "He's been at home the whole time, he hasn't gone anywhere!"
I didn't dare get too close to know what was happening inside, but I could hear Zhang Wanhua and her daughter-in-law crying, crying nonstop..."
Luo Ning frowned slightly. Could something have gone wrong somewhere?
No, not possible!
Li Laoguai's behavior is too suspicious, and his true colors have been revealed.
“He was ruled out as a suspect at home. This person is very cunning!” Luo Baiwan rubbed his temples. He believed that Daya was right.
Over the years, although Li Laoguai may have looked like an ordinary person, he has clearly been the uncrowned king among the villagers.
His prestige in the village was no less than that of the village chief.
A crime? Liu Chunsheng sat down opposite Luo Ning, his mind full of questions. "Big cousin, what's going on?"
Luo Ning recounted the events in detail, then concluded, "Old Li knows we're watching him, so he can't risk coming forward himself. He's been operating in the village for so many years, he must have accomplices! And those accomplices must be inconspicuous people, otherwise they would have been discovered long ago."
"Tiger Cub's disappearance tonight was probably pre-planned by Li Laoguai. He used the public's curiosity to clear himself of suspicion of incest, transforming himself into a good father and avoiding the tragedy of being executed. He even used his cousin, a policeman, to exonerate himself from the whole Tiger Cub disappearance affair!"
Luo Ning's words made Luo Baiwan feel inexplicably uneasy, and the white hairs on his back broke out in a cold sweat.
Liu Chunsheng pointed to his own nose and asked Luo Ning, "You, you mean to say that Li Laoguai knew I was spying on him?"
Those bastards are so arrogant, they actually kidnapped a child right at his doorstep. They don't respect anyone at all.
Luo Ning nodded. Li Laoguai was no ordinary person. If she could deduce that it was him, then the mastermind behind it would naturally find witnesses for himself!
“You are no match for Li Laoguai, so he was able to find you.”
"You've only been a policeman for a few years, while he's been doing this kind of unscrupulous business for decades, hiding his skills all along. Even my bodyguard captain, Chen Fan, wasn't a match for him before!" Now, it's hard to say. Chen Fan has made the most progress in the three days of intensive training.
When Liu Chunsheng was dealt a blow in person, he was almost devastated.
A short while later, Wang Tiejun and Xie Chang'an returned, and Xie Chang'an reported the results of the survey.
"The door was pried open. They must have drugged your sister first, then carried Huwa away. There was a footprint on the windowsill, and another under the window, extending all the way to the back of the workshop and disappearing into the bushes. There were no signs of Huwa struggling; he was taken away in his sleep."
"Luoning, how is Xiu'e? I just went to Old Wang's house and found Old Wang very suspicious. Do you think he might be the one who took Huwa away?" Wang Tiejun told Luoning what he had found, giving her a possible lead.
Luo Ning nodded and replied, "My sister was just drugged; she'll wake up once the effects wear off."
She recalled carefully that she had seen Boss Wang at the fire scene that night.
Her brother-in-law said he was suspicious, so...
Wang Tiejun felt reassured after receiving Luo Ning's words of comfort, which put his mind at ease.
"Brother-in-law, cousin, it's been less than an hour since the fire started. There are two possibilities for where Huwa is. First, he's been hidden in the village. My sister was drugged, and Huwa might have been drugged too. Hiding him means we don't have to worry about him causing trouble."
Another possibility is that Tiger Cub was taken out of the village overnight. The road out of the village is in bad condition, and it's slow to walk at night with a child in your arms, but half an hour should be enough!
Let's prepare for the worst!
That evening, I noticed that Zhang Caixia and Sister-in-law Ding, those two who love to join in the fun, were not there. What attracted them to give up such a good opportunity to watch the drama unfold?
Now let's split up and search for them. Finding them might lead us to clues about Tiger Cub's disappearance.
Brother-in-law, you and Xie Chang'an go find Zhang Caixia.
My older cousin and I went to find Sister-in-law Ding, and while we were there, we kept an eye out for places in the village where people might be hiding. Whatever the outcome, we'll meet up at my house in an hour.
As soon as Luo Ning finished speaking, he had already left through the gate.
Xie Chang'an hurriedly followed, giving Liu Chunsheng a look that said, "Let's switch!"
Liu Chunsheng rolled his eyes. What a tagalong!
Wang Tiejun looked towards the small bedroom with some difficulty. He wanted to go find Huwa, but his wife hadn't woken up...
Luo Ning turned around to tell Luo Baiwan to go home and sleep, but noticed Wang Tiejun's worry. "Brother-in-law, there's someone at home to take care of my sister, so don't worry. We need to hurry, or it'll be troublesome if Huwa gets taken out of the village!"
"Oh dear!" Wang Tiejun had forgotten that Luo Ning had bodyguards with her, and he was so flustered that he lost his mind.
Twenty minutes later, Luo Ning found Ding's wife, who was acting suspiciously, on the road leading from the village to the town. He went up to her and questioned her, "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Aunt Ding jumped, her hand clutching her pocket, her voice trembling involuntarily, "I... I came to check on how the road repairs are going..."
That's a lame excuse!
Luo Ning used the night vision to survey his surroundings and discovered that the road had just reached this point, still halfway to the village.
Luo Baiwan ran up, panting, but didn't doubt Ding's words.
“Da Ya, now the villagers are keeping a close watch on them coming into the village. They don’t let those backward elements get close to this place, nor do they let them come to repair the road. It’s normal for her to run out at night to take a look.”
Wow! You guys are awesome! Luo Ning gives you a thumbs up.
From what Daddy said, it seems like Sister-in-law Ding is alright?
That's ridiculous!
The woman's eyes darted around, and she wasn't dressed lightly enough to be shivering from the cold.
Luo Ning's sharp gaze fell on Aunt Ding, as if he wanted to see right through her.
Her husband was arrested because of his involvement in Jian Yin's case, and this woman came to cause trouble in the middle of the night; she's incorrigible.
Aunt Ding unconsciously took two steps back. "That's me."
"Your hands have been in your pockets the whole time. The weather is cool now, but not cold enough to make you move your hands around. Your actions betray your true nature!"
There's definitely something good in your pocket, and you're holding it down tightly for fear it will fly away.
"For you, nothing is better than money. Tonight, someone's paying you to attract our attention. Am I right?"
Ding's mind went blank for a moment, her legs went weak, and she looked at Luo Ning as if she had seen a ghost.
How did she know?
It's as if I can see it! How is this possible?!
Everyone in the village was at Lao Luo's house. She came here from her home and didn't see anyone along the way.
Luo Baiwan felt that Ding Meixiang's reaction was most likely correct, just as Da Ya had predicted.
Xie Chang'an's judgment was similar to Luo Ning's: there must be something wrong with this Sister Ding, but who gave her the money?
