C264 Police Assault
As the fire alarm sounded, the originally peaceful hotel was suddenly flooded with many people.
This hotel was also not bad. There were still many people staying here. Now, they nervously ran out of the room, asking all sorts of questions.
The girl at the front desk was also panicking, not knowing what was going on.
Lili was worried about Ann Dong'er, but she couldn't go out herself. She thought about it and decided that the police were after all cops and couldn't be as bad to Dong'er as Lei Jia or Tang Mingcheng.
Dong'er was buying time for himself, now was the time to race against time.
She gritted her teeth and took advantage of the chaos to quickly climb up to the floor where she used to live and return to her room.
Her floor was a little higher, and the men, hearing the sharp fire alarm, looked around in horror.
Only Ann Qianxi was in a hurry to rush into the room. When she opened the door, she could smell a familiar hot breath.
She should have opened the window to let in some air, but for safety's sake, she closed it.
The two of them started rummaging through the room and found the documents and the disc that Prof. Zhang left for her.
She originally wanted to simply and violently carry away her travel bag, but after thinking about it, if she just took away all the things in her bag, wouldn't that mean that the place was completely empty and that the police would suspect her of leaving behind some traces of life?
Thinking this way, she could only bear with the pain and leave her travel bag behind, only bringing her documents and purse along with her, she painfully thought that she would have to buy everything again this time.
As she thought about it, she quickly changed her clothes, put on her fluffy little chestnut curls, and, listening to the fire alarm still blaring, sped out of the room.
In the lobby of the first floor, two police officers were standing on the spot nervously. The police officer who was being held by Ann Dong'er couldn't take action, he said to the other police: "Qingquan, go take a look. Did something happen?"
Xu Qingquan's name sounded somewhat poetic, but his appearance was ordinary and he wore a police uniform. Upon hearing this, he solemnly nodded his head and was about to go to the front desk to inquire.
Ann Dong'er hugged the policeman's leg. When he saw Xu Qingquan turning to leave, he panicked and immediately let go of the policeman in front of him and hugged Xu Qingquan.
The police officer that Ann Dong'er had previously embraced was called Luo Peng. He looked quite handsome, and he was also quite assertive.
Ye Zichen felt weird and funny when he saw Ann Dong'er's reaction.
Xu Qingquan was being held, so it was not good to continue walking forward. He helplessly turned around to look at Luo Peng.
Luo Peng took a step forward and said, "It's alright, I'll go take a look."
However, just as he was about to leave, Ann Dong'er hugged him again.
Xu Qingquan and Luo Peng looked at each other. The two of them spread out their hands, helpless.
Ann Dong'er even shouted, "Uncle police, don't go! I am afraid! "
"Don't worry, little friend. Let this uncle of the police take you outside first so there won't be any more danger. Uncle will go check out the situation and ensure the safety of the others." Luo Peng squatted down and said with a gentle and patient voice.
However, Ann Dong'er was unwilling to let them go.
After a while, Ann Dong'er refused to let the two leave and the two policemen gradually lost their patience.
After all, they couldn't let a child miss out on something important. They looked at each other, and Luo Peng easily lifted Ann Dong'er up and gave him to the two girls at the front desk to look after him. He also didn't allow Ann Dong'er to continue following them.
After doing all this, the two policemen finally had to walk in the direction of the elevator. Because of the alarm bell, the hotel was full of panic, and the guests upstairs also took the elevator down, so Xu Qingquan and Luo Peng waited in front of the elevator for a while before going upstairs.
Ann Dong'er muttered, "Mom, hurry up!"
A portion of the guests took the elevator in a hurry, while many more with common sense descended from the stairs.
The staircase that was rarely used by anyone in this hotel was bustling with noise and excitement today.
Ann Qianxi walked out of the hotel with her head full of curly chestnut hair.
When she passed by the lobby, she pretended to look into the lobby and didn't see the two police officers, but she didn't see Ann Dong'er either.
Since the police weren't here, she dared to look up. However, there was no sign of Ann Dong'er anywhere in the hall.
Ann Qianxi panicked. She started to guess, those two cops couldn't be people sent by Tang Mingcheng or Lei Jia, could they be disguised as policemen?
She was pushed out of the hotel by the crowd.
How could something happen to her Dong'er? How could she let anything happen to Dong'er?
"Mom!" A tender shout came from behind him.
Ann Qianxi turned around abruptly and saw a small figure shuttling through the crowd, running towards her.
She squatted down and held Ann Dong'er in her arms.
"Where did you go?" "This is so scary." Ann Qianxi said as she held him tightly.
Ann Dong'er's voice was full of excitement. "Didn't Mom ask Dong'er to wait for her here?"
Ann Qianxi hugged him as her heartbeat gradually calmed down. She released him, looked at him, and said with a doting tone, "Then why did you still run away?"
"Mommy! Didn't Dong'er help? " Ann Dong'er grabbed her hand excitedly and asked with bright eyes.
Ann Qianxi was helpless. She rubbed his head and said lovingly, "Yes, Dong'er will help, but don't be like this in the future. Mom will worry."
Dong'er was indeed smart, but when she couldn't see him for a while, she was so scared that her heart almost stopped.
Ann Dong'er nodded obediently.
The guests gathered at the entrance of the hotel, and when they heard the sharp alarm bells in the hotel had stopped ringing, they all gathered in front of the hotel in fright, whispering and pointing.
It was not a good place to stay for long. Ann Qianxi carried Ann Dong'er and left the hotel with the documents in her hands.
In the hotel, two policemen walked out of the elevator and arrived at the fifth floor where Ann Qianxi was staying.
This floor was not considered high, and Ann Qianxi had not taken a good look at exactly how many floors there were in this very large scale hotel.
From the higher floors, as well as the more slow customers on the fifth floor, they were still running down the stairs.
Xu Qingquan and Luo Peng walked out of the elevator and faced each other. They bumped into a large group of guests who wanted to take the elevator down. The two of them struggled through the chaotic crowd and found the hotel room that Ann Qianxi had booked.
Luo Peng took out the key he got from the girl at the front desk and opened the door.
Ann Qianxi wasn't here at the moment, but she could come back at any time. Besides, the hotel was in a state of chaos. It was inevitable that Ann Qianxi would run into the room to retrieve the items she left behind.
"You stay outside and watch. Don't let anyone else in. I'll go in and look for clues." Luo Peng said solemnly to Xu Qingquan.
Xu Qingquan nodded and stood in front of the door. Looking at the flustered crowd in the corridor, he frowned and looked around to see if there really was a fire.
When Luo Peng looked around the hotel, he found a room that only belonged to an ordinary woman with a child.
Nothing special could be seen in the room. From the information he gathered, Ann Qianxi seemed to have a close relationship with Chi Shaojun, the man who was once rich.
But now that he looked at the room Ann Qianxi lived in, it didn't seem like anything special. The furnishings also looked very ordinary, so it was hard to tell that she was a vain woman.
Luo Peng shook his head. He didn't continue to observe and deduce subconsciously, preventing the occupational disease from continuing.
Right now, the most important thing for him to do was to find the useful information that Director Zhu wanted. He reminded himself like this and began to rummage through the documents.
However, after searching for a while, Luo Peng did not find anything special. Other than some daily toiletries and some clothes with unique taste, he did not discover anything.
However, when Luo Peng looked at those clothes that looked very exaggerated, he recalled the photos of Ann Qianxi he saw in the investigation and lamented that he really couldn't judge a book by its cover.
He walked to the hotel entrance and looked at the empty corridor. Disappointed, he said to Xu Qingquan, "Nothing."
Xu Qingquan recalled Zhu Jianming's strict request that they find something useful on Ann Qianxi's body. He was a little troubled as he asked, "Are you sure you've searched through everything?"
Luo Peng nodded and said, "I'm sure. I've even checked my clothes, but there's nothing. How can I report this to Director Zhu?"
He frowned in worry.
"This is very normal. This case is already troublesome to deal with, how could it be so easy to find something?" Although Xu Qingquan wasn't as decisive as Luo Peng, he was still a good person. Now, he could actually comfort Luo Peng.
Luo Peng thought for a moment and said, "You're right. That woman might have such an important thing on her. Let's wait for her to come back and monitor her properly. We won't be able to find anything if we don't believe it."
The two of them finished their discussion and walked out of Ann Qianxi's room. After that, they left and put everything back in their original places, creating the impression that no one had come before.
The alarm stopped ringing. A little girl at the front desk ran upstairs and saw two people. She was relieved and said, "Two police officers, there's no fire here. I don't know why the alarm rang, but it might be a problem."
"Trouble?" Luo Peng glanced at her with a slight frown.
The little girl's face was still a little inexperienced. From the looks of it, she should not have had much experience in society. From the looks of it, she didn't seem like she was lying.
However, Luo Peng still felt that there was something strange about this alarm clock that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
He turned his head to look at Xu Qingquan, who was also looking at him. Without waiting for him to speak, Xu Qingquan opened his mouth and said, "It's a little strange."
