“But it’s different if this police officer is from the Feng family.” Sister Ling glanced at Feng Jing as if she really placed her hopes on him. “Let’s go in, take a seat and talk.”
Jiang Xing and Yin Tao followed them into the room. Sister Ling and Liu Jing sat by the bed while Feng Jing and the others sat on the sofa and chairs not far away.
“Jingjing, what’s wrong with you? Why are you hiding here?” Jiang Xing didn’t expect things to develop like this. He had only wanted to help Yin Tao with a small favor, but he didn’t expect to discover so many secrets.
Liu Jing still looked at Sister Ling worriedly, as if she didn’t dare to reveal the reason why she was here.
“Don’t be afraid. We have no other choice. You can’t hide in the basement for the rest of your life. You can only place your hopes on Officer Feng.”
Although Sister Ling didn’t completely trust the police, she knew the strength of the Feng family. With the man’s family background, he might really succeed as long as he set his mind on something. Even if the person he wanted to deal with was the boss of the black market, the Feng family would stand a chance of winning.
“Don’t worry. I promise you that I will keep you safe.” Feng Jing knew that the reason why Liu Jing was hiding must be related to the black market. He had already wasted too much time on the black market, so he definitely wouldn’t give up such a good opportunity.
“Someone wants to kill me.” Liu Jing’s voice was trembling. She seemed to have thought of something terrifying, and she became visibly upset.
“Speak slowly. Don’t be afraid. It’s safe here.” Perhaps it was because Liu Jing and Cheng Yao looked similar, Yin Tao patted Liu Jing’s shoulder with concern. Her heart ached for this young girl.
“Awhile ago, I was a waitress at an auction and 1 met a very difficult customer.”
Liu Jing tried her best to calm down and told the truth that she had not dared to say. “After all, those guests are not to be trifled with. Therefore, in order to avoid him, I ran to the VIP lounge of the auction and hid. I didn’t expect to encounter such a terrifying thing.”
“Did you hear something that you shouldn’t have heard?” Feng Jing said softly when he saw Liu Jing stammering. “Tell me slowly. I will think of a way to help you.”
Liu Jing nodded and said slowly, “Not only did 1 hear what I shouldn’t have heard, but I also saw two men. They were both very tall. One was wearing a black suit, and the other was wearing a dark gray casual outfit. They were talking about some terrifying things. This is the first time I’ve heard people discussing human lives like they were dirt.”
“From Jingjing’s description, 1 can tell that one of them is a man in a suit.” Sister Ling looked at Liu Jing with pity. She felt that she had suffered too much at her age.
“Who were they?” Feng Jing was looking forward to what the two of them would say next. This might be the key to catching the real mastermind behind the black market.
“Yan Kai, the owner of the auction. I’ve met him a few times before. He’s an out-and-out lunatic. Although he hasn’t been in the black market for long, the rumors about him are even more terrifying than the real owner of the black market.”
“Then the other one must be an even more important character.” Feng Jing was not really interested in the owner of the auction. The person he had always wanted to catch was the real owner of the black market.
“Yes, not everyone can enter the VIP lounge.” Sister Ling agreed with Feng Jing and continued to explain on behalf of Liu Jing. “Jingjing was too afraid at that time and didn’t dare to make a sound, so she heard their conversation clearly.” “What is the content of the conversation? Can you repeat it as thoroughly as possible?” Feng Jing had a premonition that what Liu Jing was going to say next was the true secret of the black market. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gotten herself into this trouble.
“They’re talking about a USB drive with something very important.” Liu Jing couldn’t forget the conversation between the two of them because she was too nervous. Moreover, the room was unusually quiet. She could clearly distinguish their voices.
“The man that Sister Ling said was called Yan Kai seemed to be looking for something for the tall man.”
Feng Jing asked, “Was he looking for a USB drive?”
“Yes, a USB drive that has already cost many lives. The man in dark gray even threatened the man in the suit and said that he didn’t care if more people died because of this..”
