Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 526 Vivian Buys the Haunted House
"Yes, don't worry, I won't tell anyone, not even God." Vivian stared into Li Fei's eyes and nodded solemnly.

"Thank you." Li Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

Vivian looked up and kissed Li Fei again, saying, "Fei, you're my man, there's no need to be so polite."

Seeing this, a glint of light flashed in Li Fei's eyes. He gently patted Vivian's back, lowered his head, and whispered a few words in her ear.

Vivian blushed upon hearing this, then nodded.

Subsequently, the two left Inspector Chong's office and then left the police station.

They got into Li Fei's car one after the other.

Li Fei drove his car into a wooded area on the outskirts of town, and then parked it in a deserted spot.

The following 30,000 words are omitted...

After more than an hour of galloping on horseback, Vivian was completely captivated.

Although the car is not very spacious, the level of excitement it offers is unmatched elsewhere.

After tidying themselves up, the two returned to the police station.

Then Vivian, as the new leader of the Stormtroopers, convened a meeting with all the Stormtroopers' management.

at the meeting.

Li Fei and Vivian didn't have much contact; after all, given their status, they had to be discreet.

Vivian introduced herself and then told everyone to do things as usual. She also made it clear that she would not interfere in work matters without reason.

After receiving Vivian's statement, everyone except Li Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

They were genuinely afraid that Vivian, their new boss, would act recklessly and throw the entire stormtroopers into chaos.

People have two different attitudes toward their new boss.

One reason is worry, fear that the young new boss might misbehave.

The second type is doubt, doubting the new boss's ability to manage the vanguard team.

Now it seems that my new boss is reliable.

After the meeting, Li Fei followed Vivian to what used to be Superintendent Liu's office.

Looking at the empty office, Li Fei thought for a moment, picked up the office phone, and called Somali, asking her to help buy some plants that could be placed in the office.

"Fei, have her buy another pot of jasmine flowers. I like the scent of jasmine."

"Vivian said from the side."

“Mary, did you hear me? After you’re done buying it, deliver it to Superintendent Vivian’s office,” Li Fei said to Somali.

"Brother Fei, what's your relationship with her?"

On the other end of the phone, Somali was quite surprised to hear the new female police superintendent address Li Fei so intimately.

"I'll tell you about my relationship with her later. You should take care of your business first," Li Fei said.

"Ok."

After hanging up the landline, Li Fei asked Vivian, "Where are you staying now?"

“I had my family buy a villa in the Repulse Bay area, and I’ll be living there from now on,” Vivian said, her eyes sparkling.

Repulse Bay Villa District!

Doesn't that mean they live in the same neighborhood as me?
"Which villa do you live in?" Li Fei asked.

“Your neighbor,” Vivian said.

"what?"

Li Fei was startled and said, "Someone died in that villa."

The villa next to Li Fei's originally belonged to Serena, but it became a haunted house after Li Fei killed Daniel there. After Serena moved in with him, she sold the villa.

The person who bought this villa was Sun Zhihui.

But Sun Zhihui had already been sent to prison by Li Fei.

Li Fei had heard from people in the community that the villa had been put up for auction by the government.

But I learned that not only did people die in this villa, but it was also inhabited by perverts.

Once potential buyers see this, they'll realize they wouldn't want to buy a villa like this.

As Chinese people, we are very particular and superstitious, and we generally do not buy houses where someone has died.

First, we need to know that in China, some houses are called "haunted houses" because murders, suicides, or other unfortunate events have occurred there.

Many people have a strange taboo and superstitious feeling about this kind of house, always feeling that living in it will bring bad luck.

Psychological factors are an important reason.

This idea can subconsciously create resistance and fear in people, especially when they are alone at night or encounter special situations. Psychological suggestion may cause residents to experience unnecessary panic.

In addition, if others learn in social situations that the original owner of the house is a drug lord or other criminal, it may trigger strange looks and gossip, bringing additional psychological burden to the resident.

Secondly, cultural background and social attitudes also played an important role.

In traditional Chinese culture, houses are regarded as a place to settle down and make a living, and are closely related to an individual's fate and family happiness.

Therefore, when buying a house, people often consider its feng shui and historical background.

Although from a practical and scientific point of view, houses where people have died are no different in terms of physical properties, people still avoid them due to their potential psychological impact.

In addition, while there is no legal prohibition against buying and selling houses where someone has died, deliberately concealing this fact may lead to disputes, which makes homebuyers cautious about such properties.

However, foreigners don't have this taboo and are open to haunted houses, believing they are relatively cheaper and more affordable.

“I know he’s dead, but what does that have to do with where I live?” Vivian said with a smile.

Hearing Vivian's optimistic words, Li Fei felt that he was being a bit superstitious.

"Vivian, there's something I need to tell you."

Li Fei's expression turned serious, and he told Vivian about the terrorists' plan to attack the school.

"My God! It's them!"

Vivian gasped in surprise, covering her mouth with her hand.

"You know them?" Li Fei asked in surprise.

“A few months ago, there were two school bombings in the UK, which were reported in newspapers and on television. These were the terrorists who did it. I never expected that they would escape to Hong Kong,” Vivian explained.

It's normal for Vivian to know about something as big as terrorists bombing a school in the UK.

“Fei, since you know they’re going to bomb the school, why don’t you catch them?” Vivian said.

Li Fei shook his head and said, "Catching them is no problem, but if we act now, there might be some who escape. If they retaliate, it will be even more dangerous for Hong Kong. It's better to cast a wide net and catch all the terrorists at once."

"Fei, you're the commander of this operation. Won't you be in danger?" Vivian asked worriedly.

Li Fei pinched her cheek and said, "You know I'm a night detective, yet you still don't believe in my abilities. How could those little trash possibly be a match for me?"

"Flying is the most amazing thing," Vivian said proudly, clenching her little fist.

Seeing this, Li Fei immediately pulled Vivian into his arms and whispered, "How about we try it in the office?"

Vivian's eyes lit up, and she gave Li Fei a knowing look.
