In the future chat group, I'll become the richest man by just eating gossip.

Chapter 22 So Crazy
suddenly!

Feng Nan paused in her steps.

"That knocking sound..."

Suddenly, Feng Nan's expression changed.

"wrong!"

"They weren't knocking on my door, but rather knocking on each room after they got off the elevator. It definitely couldn't be Yueyang and his group."

Upon realizing this, Feng Nan was horrified.

He rushed to the door and yanked out the room key, plunging the room into darkness.

Feng Nan tiptoed back and quietly slipped into the restroom.

At the same time, he made sure to put his phone on silent.

next second!
A call came in from an unknown number.

Feng Nan was startled.

I secretly rejoiced that I had just muted the sound.

Otherwise, one phone call would expose us.

Feng Nan sat on the toilet seat, listening intently to the sounds coming from the hallway outside.

Yueyang and his group definitely won't arrive this quickly.

They certainly wouldn't go door to door.

So……

The people outside the door were either elderly scavengers or some drunk tenant.

Feng Nan felt that the former was more likely.

Because a drunk guest won't just knock on the door; he'll definitely make noise as well.

Feng Nan took a deep breath, unlocked her phone, and entered the leisurely town.

I was careless just now and almost caused a disaster.

One dead, one crippled, and one seriously injured!

As expected of a villain with a thirteen-kill streak.

That's awesome!

Feng Nan sat on the toilet seat, racking her brains for a way to break the deadlock, to change the fate of herself, Yue, and Li Biao, and to avoid this tragedy.

"Since one is dead, one is crippled, and one is seriously injured, it means that when Yueyang and the other arrived, I was either fighting with the old scavenger or being beaten up..."

Feng Nan silently analyzed the situation in her mind.

"and many more?"

"Not good..."

Feng Nan suddenly realized something was wrong.

If the news report is correct, doesn't that mean that Yueyang and Li Biao are likely already at the hotel and coming upstairs to look for him?

Even if it hasn't arrived yet, it's already very close.

You will definitely encounter the murderer in the corridor.

Thinking about this, Feng Nan became unsettled.

Immediately exit Leisure Town, open the Yueyang chat box, and edit a message.

[Feng Nan: Brother Yue, where did you and Brother Li get to?]

[Yueyang: I'm downstairs at the hotel, I'll be up soon. I brought you some milk tea.]

Seeing Yueyang's reply, Feng Nan felt a warmth in her heart. Since her parents died, no one had ever cared about her or bought her milk tea.

"Damn, what am I thinking?"

Feng Nan cursed herself inwardly and quickly edited a message to remind Yueyang that the murderer was in the corridor.

[Feng Nan: Brother Yue, don't come up! The murderer is in the hallway outside. I've booked many rooms, so they won't be able to find me right away. Call backup quickly and come up with them.]

After clicking send, Feng Nan felt it wasn't safe enough and immediately called Yue Yang.

Feng Nan turned the call volume down to the minimum and listened to two beeps from the receiver before quickly hanging up.

"You have to see it, you have to see it..."

Feng Nan silently prayed that Yue Yang would see the message she sent.

Meanwhile, Feng Nan re-entered Leisure Town and opened the Future Chat Group.

Feng Nan's fingers swiped rapidly through hundreds of chat records, searching for the two news items from before, wondering if the message she sent to Yue Yang reminding him that the murderer was just outside the door could be a turning point to change his fate.

The news link about the successful capture of the killer in the 13 skeletons case is still there, but the news link about one person dead, one maimed, and one seriously injured has disappeared. This means she succeeded.

Success changed his destiny with just one message.

[Yueyang: I understand. Be careful. If the murderer finds you, call me immediately. Lao Li and I are downstairs.]

Meanwhile, Yueyang's reply also arrived.

"call……"

Seeing this, Feng Nan breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Feng Nan did not let her guard down.

She still had to ask in the group to see if there were any follow-up news reports, because given the ruthlessness of the elderly scavenger, he certainly wouldn't surrender easily.

She needs to know the process of the arrest.

And the situation regarding casualties.

There were many inaccuracies in that previous news report. Even if the elderly scavenger was ruthless, he was still just an old man in his sixties or seventies.

Yue Yang and Li Biao were not only in their prime, but also well-trained criminal investigators with extensive experience fighting criminals on the front lines. How could they possibly have one dead and one injured when facing a 60- or 70-year-old murderer in a two-on-one situation?
There's clearly something fishy going on here.

Thinking of this, Feng Nan immediately started typing.

[Braised Pork Belly with Preserved Mustard Greens: @Everyone, friends, is there any detailed information or related news about the capture of the perpetrator in the 13 skeletons case?]

After clicking send, Feng Nan held her phone and quietly waited for the replies from her group members.

dong dong dong-

The knocking on the door in the hallway continued.

This was the second time her door had been knocked on.

If Feng Nan still harbored a sliver of hope the first time, then when the second time it rang, Feng Nan was almost certain that the guy in the hallway outside the door was the old scavenger.

He was looking for himself.

Feng Nan was absolutely certain that she was right.

[Shangguan Yingji: @Meicai Kourou, great author, I found a quote here and will send it to you right away.]

Thirty seconds later!

Shangguan Yingji sent me a news link.

[Shocking! The Major Crimes Unit suffers heavy losses in its efforts to apprehend the true culprit in the 13 skeletons case!]

Upon seeing this news headline, Feng Nan's heart sank, and she thought to herself, "I knew it wouldn't be that easy to change my fate."

[Jing Xiaoqi: @Meicai Kourou, I also have a clip here, supposedly leaked from within the Major Crimes Unit, showing the arrest process. I'll send it to you.]

Below this message is a news link.

When Feng Nan saw the headline of this news link, cold sweat instantly broke out.

The perpetrator of the 13 skeletons case was extremely brutal, even carrying homemade explosives. Two members of the Major Crimes Unit died and three were seriously injured.

"hiss……"

Feng Nan gasped.

"My goodness, homemade explosives?"

Feng Nan almost screamed, but fortunately she retained a shred of reason and didn't shout it out.

goo-dong-

Feng Nan nervously swallowed.

Without having time to read the details of the two news articles, I quickly exited the Leisure Town app and opened the chat window with Yueyang.

At this moment, Feng Nan's hand holding the phone was shaking.

Explosives are terrifying to ordinary people.

That was a deadly weapon that guaranteed certain death.

Feng Nan was able to maintain a calm mind, surpassing her own computer and defeating one percent of users' computers.

Her mental fortitude surpasses that of 99% of ordinary people.

[Feng Nan: Brother Yue, he has homemade explosives. You must be careful when you arrest him.]

After typing this, Feng Nan seemed to have exhausted all her strength. She collapsed onto the toilet seat, panting heavily.

After calming down for a full minute, Feng Nan finally had the strength to pick up her phone again, enter the Leisure Town, click into the Future Chat Group, and check the details of the two news links.

The Major Crimes Unit launched a fierce attack, but the killer detonated homemade explosives he was carrying. Yue Yang, the head of the Major Crimes Unit, who was at the forefront, and Li Biao, the deputy head, died on the spot...
