Chapter 732 - 647: The Vanished Bodies, Awakening

After Hou Wendong finished speaking, he paused and then explained:

"After all, the discipline of the Patrol Office is something you, Member of Parliament, must have heard about.

Actually, tonight it’s not just the two captains; many constables’ phones couldn’t be reached either, and they didn’t return to the team in time to respond.

Many of them might have simply slept too soundly, put their phones on silent, and when dawn breaks, probably, they will show up automatically, right?"

He hadn’t finished speaking before Wang Xinfa interrupted him with an indisputable tone:

"Find the people, immediately, at once."

Hou Wendong felt a chill in his heart and promptly bowed in response:

"Understood, I’ll arrange it right away. By the way, Feng Mu has already arrived; I have him waiting in the corridor. Would the Member of Parliament like to meet him?"

Wang Xinfa’s gaze casually swept over Li Hanyu. Li Hanyu did not rush to explain but returned with a gentle and calm smile.

Feng Mu is the confidant of her son Qian Huan, and is currently her most trusted loyal dog; she didn’t say it, but Wang Xinfa definitely knows it.

Tonight, such a big incident happened, and it was only natural and reasonable for her to call her loyal dog to guard her side, requiring no extra explanation.

Sure enough, Wang Xinfa did not ask much, even though he doubted that if something really happened, a mere prison guard would be of any use.

In Wang Xinfa’s eyes, in the Second Prison, apart from the prison warden who barely counts as an official, everyone below, be it the prison chiefs or the sub-district chiefs, were all equal.

They were all just jailers guarding the prisoners, not to mention someone like Feng Mu, who was an eclectic head of the Internal Inspection Department.

Wang Xinfa’s voice was cold as ice:

"I won’t see him. Go down and have him (Feng Mu) find Feng Ju for me!"

Hou Wendong instantly grasped the profound meaning behind Wang Xinfa’s order. If something went wrong with Li Shang, then the importance of another captain of the Patrol Office would naturally rise at this critical moment.

He quickly accepted the order:

"Understood, Member of Parliament, rest assured, I will handle it well."

Wang Xinfa seemed to feel he had said too much, picked up his teacup to moisten his somewhat dry throat. After placing down the teacup, he saw that Hou Wendong was still standing respectfully, and his eyebrows furrowed slightly in impatience:

"Do you have anything else to report?"

Hou Wendong displayed some strangeness on his face, he glanced at Li Hanyu before lowering his voice to say:

"Member of Parliament, President Lu, Madam, regarding the condition of the bodies on-site, there are also some... anomalies."

The three of them were momentarily stunned, their gazes simultaneously focused on Hou Wendong’s face, especially Li Hanyu who was slightly unsettled by Hou Wendong’s previous glance.

Hou Wendong organized his words to report:

"At the entrance to Jade Garden, a few bodies were carried out, I personally went to confirm them, they were all security personnel from the villa area. The bodies carried out from the special envoy’s villa, I also carefully inspected, the identities were confirmed, all were female staff serving within the villa."

Wang Xinfa’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, he did not care about whether any security guards or maids died; such small folks dying more were just numbers, not worthy of tainting his ears.

Lu Chenjia listened attentively, his intuition told him that with so much buildup by Hou Wendong, there must be a twist; Li Hanyu was even more on edge, ears perked up fearing to miss a single word.

Sure enough, Hou Wendong took a deep breath and said:

"However, I detailedly inquired with the Patrol Office personnel responsible for handling and recording on-site and checked the number of bodies. I found... the Patrol Office did not find any bodies under the streetlamp.

Instead, they only found a pool of dark blood in that spot, so there are actually two bodies missing from the scene."

As soon as the words fell, the faces of the three in the room changed simultaneously.

Li Hanyu was so shocked that she stood up abruptly, exclaiming:

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!

At the entrance, right under that streetlamp! There were clearly two bodies lying there, one... one without a head, the other wearing the Night Watcher’s clothes.

I personally... no, it was my several bodyguards, they saw through the gap in the door, it definitely won’t be wrong!"

Of course, the bodyguards’ testimony to the Patrol Office was fabricated, it belonged to the kind of questioning where they knew nothing; however, facing the two true masters, Wang Xinfa and Lu Chenjia, naturally they couldn’t deceive, they would answer without leaving anything out.

Lu Chenjia and Wang Xinfa naturally wouldn’t doubt the bodyguards they had assigned to Li Hanyu’s side; even if they suspected Li Hanyu, they wouldn’t suspect those bodyguards.

Hou Wendong naturally understood the logic, but he couldn’t understand what happened in between; he simply reported truthfully:

"Madam and the bodyguards would naturally not lie, so the problem lies here.

The situation now is, there are two bodies missing on site; the Patrol Office currently does not know about the existence of these two bodies, which means, the Patrol Office currently doesn’t know that, in Jade Garden, a Night Watcher also died tonight."

Hou Wendong concluded with the final verdict:

"The Patrol Office currently only assumes some villain attacked the special envoy’s villa and then the special envoy disappeared."

Li Hanyu opened her mouth wide, yet could not utter a single word.

Her mind was completely scrambled, like a ball of yarn frantically clawed by a cat, countless clues, fears, and doubts tangled together without any lead.

There’s another mishap?!

What do you mean the bodies are gone?!

Where did those two big bodies of mine go?!

Not long ago, the bodyguards still saw those two shocking bodies under the streetlight through the door gap.

Yet in the blink of an eye, in the Patrol Office’s records, they disappeared without a trace, leaving only a puddle of dark, inexplicable blood?
