The killer might try again. Li Xue called her former colleagues over to report the incident to their superior.
Under the guise of protecting the crime scene, they guarded the entrance and kept making calls.
Discovering Meng Changxi's whereabouts was a great achievement. The two officers treated Han Fei with kindness but they subconsciously blocked Han Fei from entering the cave. They still did not fully trust Han Fei.
"Just leave the rest to us."
The police's backup arrived soon. Han Fei stared at his own picture. He did not plan to stay there any longer.
"As long as I can be of help, I'll leave now." Han Fei was a professional actor. Combined with his experience in the game, it was hard for others to read his mind through the changes in his facial expression.
On the surface, they appeared to be on good terms but in reality, Han Fei had other plans in mind.
"Li Xue, can you send me back?"
"Okay."
The two who discovered the cave were the first to leave. Li Xue rode the motorbike to send Han Fei back to the old city.
Along the way, they did not say anything. It was not until Han Fei got off the motorbike that Li Xue could not help but ask.
"Do you still think the killer is Meng Changan?"
"My suspicion towards Meng Changan has not lessened but you're not wrong. It is true that Meng Changxi buried the body, he did commit a crime." Han Fei returned the helmet to Li Xue and did not say anything else.
After Li Xue left, Han Fei looked at the apartment before him. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the taser.
If this was anyone else, knowing that they might be targeted, they would not have entered their own building like normal but Han Fei was different. He had been to stairwells hundreds of times scarier than this.
After preparing himself, Han Fei was about to walk into the building when his phone vibrated.
When he saw the message, Han Fei's expression turned strange.
'Why would Wei Youfu's father send me a message at this time?' Han Fei thought about it and soon understood the key point.
He was the focus of the police. The area around his house was heavily guarded. It would be difficult for Meng Changxi to meet up with him here so the most effective method was to go somewhere else and use a third party to complete the meeting.
'If the person who followed me was Meng Changxi, then he must know that I have a good relationship with Wei Youfu's father and he even promised to take care of him.'
Han Fei clicked on the message. The content was simple, Wei Youfu's father wanted to meet him.
If there were no unnecessary words, there would be no unnecessary flaws.
Han Fei immediately replied to the other party and went straight to the North Street of the old town.
After passing by the filming site of Flower of Sin, the courtyard outside the apartment building was deserted. The crew had not started work yet.
"Director Jiang has stopped filming? Has he decided to wait for the results of the case? "
This was good news for Han Fei but now was not the time to be concerned about that. He and Li Xue had visited the old man's home before, so he knew the old man lived in the same building as Meng Si.
Wei Youfu's father lived on the fourth floor, while Meng Changshou, who occupied Meng Shi's house, lived on the third floor.
Without alerting anyone, Han Fei sneaked up to the 4th floor. He knocked on the door and realized it was not locked.
"Grandpa, are you home?" To put on an act, Han Fei walked into the room like he knew nothing but in reality, every nerve in his body was taut.
The kitchen door appeared to be open because he could hear the sound of running water. As he walked towards the kitchen, the bedroom door next to him suddenly opened.
He immediately dodged to the side and took out his taser.
Perhaps he had been through too many scary things in the game, Han Fei was so calm that even he was surprised by his own calmness.
There might be a fugitive hiding inside the room but he showed no fear. His heart was calm and his eyes were as deep as an ancient well.
"A normal person would be scared out of their wits when they see my face but you did not react at all. I was not wrong about you, being an actor is just an occupation you use to fool others. "
The voice was hoarse like it was filled with iron shrapnel. Just listening to the voice would cause pain.
"You guessed wrong. I'm a comedian."
Han Fei turned to the bedroom and a man with severe burns on his face stood at the door.
His entire face was burnt to the point that his facial features could not be seen clearly. Only the pair of eyes were sharp and bright, like sharp blades.
While Han Fei studied the man, the man was also studying him.
"You seem to know that I'll be waiting for you here." The man with the ruined face revealed a creepy smile. "There is a familiar stench on you. You've been to the sewers at Dong Hwa Ice Factory? I don't think I've exposed myself, how did you find that place? "
"You sure have a lot of questions, Meng Changxi." When Han Fei said Meng Changxi's name, the smile on the man's face froze.
Looking at the man before him, Han Fei did not show any sign of fear. His calm reaction stopped the man from acting recklessly.
The two stood facing each other. After a long time, the man with the ruined face slowly raised his hands. "It's been a long time since someone called me by that name. Don't worry, I mean you no harm."
"I know." Han Fei slowly retreated to the living room. "Where is Wei Youfu's father?"
"The old man is sleeping, I won't hurt him."
Meng Changxi pushed open the door to another bedroom. Wei Youfu's father was lying in bed, breathing evenly.
Seeing the old man was safe, Han Fei sighed in relief. His small movement attracted Meng Changxi's attention. "I've followed you before. You've been very kind to the family of the human jigsaw case victims. Are you one of them?"
Han Fei was reminded of his roommate at the haunted house. He nodded. "I have a reason to capture the real culprit. Based on my investigation, Meng Changan is the prime suspect. But I'm curious, why did you suddenly disappear several years ago?"
"If I didn't disappear, the next ones to die would have been me and my wife." Meng Changxi touched the scars on his face. "Both my big brother and that animal have gone mad."
"Big brother? Meng Changshou? "Han Fei narrowed his eyes. The truth that had been hidden for so many years was about to surface!
"I know you're shocked but one of the main reasons I chose to disappear was because of my big brother." The scars on Meng Changxi's face twisted together. "When my mother was killed, there was a question that I couldn't understand. Why would she bring Chen Chen to Dong Hwa Ice Factory? There was no reason for that. Then I thought of a possibility. It was not my mother who brought Chen Chen there but someone else who used Chen Chen to trick my mother into going there. "
"Before this, I had been suspecting Meng Changan. I kept comforting my big brother but later I realized that was not the case." Meng Changxi's voice was devoid of emotion. "My big brother was an honest man. He had a good temper. Everyone thought he was a pushover. After the accident with Chen Chen and my mother, my big brother went crazy. He refused to say a word. I was worried about his health so I brought him to the hospital to rest. I even did a checkup. "
"And then?"
