Chapter 199: Enough is enough, OK?
"Use your pig brain! How could she possibly have told me? Before you imprisoned her, she had no idea that you had such a place hidden in your closet. After you imprisoned her, all her communication devices were in your hands. How could she have told me all this?"
“If you don’t want others to know, then don’t do it in the first place. Ji Mingfan, everything you’ve done in this world will leave a trace. As long as there is a trace, I will know everything.”
"I know a lot of secrets in this world."
After saying that, Lu Yining turned around and walked towards the second to last room on the third floor.
"You can't go! You can't go in! Get out! Leave this room! Get out!"
"Two million is mine! No! More than two million! I'll have five million, ten million! All that money is mine! You can't go in! You can't let her go!"
"Get out! All of you, get out of here!"
Just then, he heard orderly footsteps behind him. Director Liu clapped his hands excitedly. The police must be coming upstairs! He immediately turned around, facing the handrail, and shouted down.
"Officer, we're upstairs, on the third floor. We've apprehended the murderer. Please come upstairs immediately, we've made a major discovery."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yunlin's expression became subtle. She thought to herself, "The director is indeed a director; his words are so sophisticated, and he even mentioned a major discovery… It's like we're filming a TV series or movie…"
Lu Yining didn't stop walking. At this moment, she had already reached the second to last room on the third floor. She stepped into the wardrobe step by step. These few steps were not fast, but each step touched Ji Mingfan's heart.
With a slight push of her hand, she opened the wardrobe.
The moment the wardrobe was pushed open, piles of poems, calligraphy, and paintings came into view.
There was a pile of books on the left side of the wardrobe, stacked one after another, almost as high as a mountain, reaching straight to the top of the wardrobe on the left.
On the right side of the wardrobe, there was a pile of calligraphy and paintings, stacked so tightly that not a single gap could be seen.
Lu Yining bent down, picked up the pile of calligraphy and paintings, and threw them all onto the ground. Immediately afterwards, she pushed the stack of books outwards again, and with a "rumble," a dark brown door appeared inside the wardrobe.
At this moment, the police had already gone up to the third floor and entered the room.
Upon seeing the police, Director Liu pointed to the wardrobe and quickly exclaimed, "Officer, come quick, there's a door here!"
Upon hearing the sound, the police officer turned his head and looked in the direction Director Liu pointed before he could ask any more questions.
With a "click," the door was opened by Lu Yining, revealing a deep, dark tunnel that seemed to have no bottom.
Just as Lu Yining was about to step inside, she was stopped by the police.
"Little girl, step back, step back."
Lu Yining turned her head: Uh? What's wrong?
“I’ll go first. There might be danger inside, so be careful and don’t make any rash moves.”
As he spoke, a policeman strode to the front. With a slight flick of his finger, he turned on his flashlight, and the bright light instantly illuminated the path ahead, dispelling all the gloom in the darkness.
After the first policeman finished speaking, another policeman came up and stood in front of Lu Yining and the others, echoing, "That's right, you guys stand back a bit, don't stand too close, better safe than sorry."
Several other police officers, after realizing what was happening, quickly moved to Ji Mingfan's side and instinctively pulled out handcuffs, ready to cuff him. However, when their eyes fell on the curtain tied to his hands, they all fell silent, their hands holding the handcuffs frozen in mid-air, unsure whether to go up or down.
One of the police officers took a deep look at Ji Mingfan's hands and commented, "The way he tied the rope is quite professional."
"Yeah." Lu Yunjie put his hands on his hips and said smugly, "My second brother is a soldier, and I learned it from him."
After years of honing his skills, he finally got to show them off today, and he was incredibly awesome!
Upon hearing this, the police officers suddenly realized why the technique was so swift and professional; it turned out that someone had been guiding them.
Two police officers took over the duties of Ji Shiyan and Lu Yunjie, pinning Ji Mingfan to the ground. Ji Shiyan and Lu Yunjie, now free, walked behind Lu Yining, standing on either side of her like two knights.
“Let’s go, let’s go down and take a look.” One of the policemen standing in front said, and then he took the lead and walked forward with steady and firm steps.
The others followed him, walking in step by step.
Walking through the door, the road was flat all the way. After walking for about 50 meters, steps began to appear. The steps were not only steep but also narrow. Just one glance at them made Lu Yining feel a sense of dread.
[Mommy, what is Ji Mingfan thinking? Why did he build the stairs like this? He's definitely a freak, otherwise, how could he have made such an inaccessible staircase...?]
Lu Yunjie nodded secretly. This did indeed seem like the work of a psychopath; a normal person could never build a staircase like this. Not only was the staircase steep and narrow, but the color scheme was also dark and gloomy, a mix of black and red, and the walls were covered with various skulls…
That pervert, he definitely has psychological problems!
Ji Shiyan stepped forward, took Lu Yining's hand, and met her eyes, which were as bright as stars and the moon. A gentle smile appeared on his face: "Don't be afraid, I'll lead you."
Hearing this, Lu Yining smiled and nodded, teasingly saying, "Then you'd better protect me!"
It was just a joke, and Lu Yining didn't take it to heart at all, but Ji Shiyan's expression became extremely serious after hearing it: "Of course, I will protect you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Yining first gazed deeply at Ji Shiyan. When she met his resolute expression, she felt a warmth spread through her heart and gradually swept over her entire body.
The two gazed at each other affectionately, but Lu Yunjie, standing behind them, was displeased.
He glared at Ji Shiyan, thinking, "You shameless show-off! You're always trying to get Ningning's attention. Have you no shame?"
He coughed loudly as a reminder.
I won't give you the cold shoulder in front of so many people, but if you know how to behave, you'd better know when to stop, okay? Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my back on you!
Ji Shiyan frowned, glancing almost imperceptibly at Lu Yunjie. He sighed inwardly; with his family around, it wasn't easy to openly express their feelings...
Turning around, Ji Shiyan held Lu Yining's hand tightly and led her down the stairs step by step.
