Mi Liangbao is indeed insecure, but he has disclosed his family background yet refuses to reveal his job? Unless this job is related to something that absolutely cannot be known by her!
Security guard, construction site, in a flash Ke Li figured everything out.
After watching the video, Mi Liangbao skillfully pretended to be pitiful, "You are a high-paid white-collar worker in a foreign company, and I am just a lowly gatekeeper. We are not from the same class; how could I dare to tell you!"
"Ha, are you blaming me? Blaming me for earning more and having a bright future that puts pressure on you, forcing you to lie? Mi Liangbao, why don't you blame yourself for not being born into a better family!"
Ke Li stood up, kicked the stool aside, and walked out of the hospital room. After leaving the ward corridor and entering the elevator, she finally dared to let out a long breath after confirming that Mi Liangbao did not follow her.
That night, Ke Li changed into a black tracksuit and quietly arrived at the construction site where Mi Liangbao was. Taking advantage of the new security guard going to the restroom, she stealthily slipped into the construction area. The site was vast, with piles of lime, cement, gravel, and other materials forming small hills. Excavators and cranes loomed like ghosts under the moonlight.
The buildings had been constructed to a considerable extent; one could see winding staircases through various door and window openings.
Where could one hide a body here? In the foundation? In the walls?
Ke Li cautiously climbed up the stairs. When she reached the fourth floor, she heard several men's voices coming from above, which startled her into quickly descending. After taking two steps down, she sensed something was off; it wasn't unusual for workers to pull double shifts on weekdays, but with only these few people making noise, they clearly weren't there to work overtime. Ke Li felt she was on the right track and turned around to continue sneaking up. As she climbed higher, the voices faded away. She spotted a headlamp lying on the ground, illuminating a wall that still glistened with moisture from wet cement!
After listening for a moment and confirming no one else was around, she approached the damp wall and picked up a piece of rubble from the ground. With both hands tightly gripping it, she attempted to scratch at the cement wall when laughter came from behind her.
"Luo Tong, that kid really guessed right; someone actually came!"
Ke Li felt all her hair stand on end as she stiffly turned around to see several men who looked like migrant workers holding hammers, daggers, beer bottles, and various tools laughing as they prepared to send her on her way.
"Who is Luo Tong?" Ke Li asked with a trembling voice.
"After being slept with for a year, you still don't know his name is Luo Tong?" one of them scoffed.
Luo Tong... Luo Tong... that name sounds so familiar; Luo Muye... Luo Family Village... Luo Tong...
At that moment of realization for Ke Li, a hammer swung toward her temple.
"Luo—Tong—Luo—Tong—" She recalled that thin, dark-skinned classmate who always had shifty eyes and stuttered when he spoke—Nanfeng.
Luo Tong, in the hospital receiving a call from his accomplice informing him everything was taken care of, wiped away his tears expressionlessly. He lowered his head on the bed and pulled up the blanket slightly.
His relatives were bound to die.
On the bedside table, Lu Zhang's phone screen displayed real-time surveillance footage of the house's interior. Luo Tong had never been able to unlock it until that day when Ke Li rushed to find the medical kit; he noticed that the cabinet had been tampered with. He opened it and picked up Lu Zhang's phone; there were fresh swipe marks on the screen. When Ke Li found the medical kit, he casually slipped the phone into his pocket. The surgery was brief and involved only local anesthesia; after coming out of the operating room, he took out Lu Zhang's phone and gently swiped along the marks—it unlocked! He discovered that Lu Zhang had installed surveillance cameras throughout his home capable of monitoring every room comprehensively. He saw Ke Li talking to herself in front of the sofa and heard her saying she wanted to find evidence of him committing murder; at that moment, he knew she couldn't be left alive.
