Hong Kong Film: Night Cop

Chapter 629 Prank?

From the time he went to the United States for examinations to the end of the surgery, Li Fei spent at least 20 million Hong Kong dollars.

If this doesn't succeed, then something strange will happen.

Although the surgery was successful, Nguyen Mai still needs to recuperate in an American hospital.

After all, a person's body is very weak after surgery, and if they were to fly back, there might be some unexpected problems.

As for how long she will need to recuperate, that depends on Ruan Mei's recovery progress. If things go smoothly, she should be able to return within three months.

It should recover within six months at the latest.

Therefore, Serena remained in America to take care of Nguyen Mai.

Of course, Li Fei couldn't leave Serena alone in America to take care of Ruan Mei, since America wasn't exactly a safe place.

There was a popular saying on the internet in my past life: Only in America, shootings happen every day.

This shows just how rampant gun violence is in the United States. In a country where gun ownership is so free, if I don't shoot you, you'll shoot me.

Li Fei also remembers that in 2022, a woman called the police, hoping that the police would mediate the conflict between her and her son Mike.

The woman's son was a frequent visitor to prison, having been imprisoned for drug smuggling, but was released on parole early due to the "minority criminalization movement".

When the police arrived to help, Mike shot and killed two officers.

It is clear that even the police are not entirely safe in America.

Therefore, every time Li Fei chatted with Shalena, he tried his best to keep her from leaving the hospital unless necessary, and even if she had to go out, he would do so during the daytime.

Two days ago, Faye Wong had fully recovered from her injuries. Instead of sending her back to Hong Kong, Li Fei sent her to the United States to help take care of Ruan Mei and protect the two women.

With Faye Wong's abilities, she could easily protect Serena and the other two women, unless there was a large-scale gunfight.

After chatting for a while, Li Fei asked Shalena if she had ever mailed him anything.

"I'll mail you something? No, I haven't!"

When Li Fei heard Serena's voice on the phone, he was stunned. If it wasn't her, could it be Faye Wong?
"Did Feifei tell you that she mailed anything to me?" Li Fei asked again.

"Impossible, Fei Fei. Fei Fei has been with me these past two days and hasn't left. If she did anything, I would definitely know."

Serena initially denied it, then asked worriedly, "Afei, has something happened?"

"No, someone just sent me something. I thought it was from you guys. It seems like someone is trying to prank me."

To avoid worrying Serena, Li Fei said it casually.

"Pranking you? It couldn't be Zhen, could it? That little devil is the one who likes to prank others," Serena said with a smile.

"Possibly, I'll call and ask later," Li Fei said.

After that, Li Fei chatted with Serena for a while, then hung up the phone and fell into deep thought.

Although Lok Wai-ching is quirky and loves to play pranks, she would never send herself something like this.

If it wasn't Yue Huizhen, then who else would send him things?

After thinking for a while, I still had no clue.

However, this didn't stump Li Fei. He called over the policewoman who delivered the package and asked, "Who sent this?"

"I left it in the police station lobby first thing this morning. When I saw your name on it, sir, I brought it to you," the policewoman said blankly.

Hearing the policewoman's words, Li Fei became even more certain that the person who sent him the item was suspicious.

"Alright, that's all, you can go now!"

Li Fei dismissed the policewoman.

The best way to find out the truth is to send the package and the butterfly to the forensic department and have Gao Yanbo help with the examination.

Just as Li Fei was about to head to the forensic department, his phone suddenly rang. Seeing the unfamiliar number, Li Fei frowned and answered, "Hello, who is this?"

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Li Fei?"

A woman's voice came from the phone.

"Yes, that's me. Who are you?" Li Fei asked.

"My name is Lan Enmei. I'm sorry, I sent the wrong item. There was a box in the package with butterflies inside. Luckily, I found your phone number. Could you please return it to me?"

Upon hearing what the beautiful woman named Lan En said, Li Fei's lips curled up slightly.

He finally understood who had sent him this gift.

What Lan Enmei? If I hadn't watched "Detective Investigation Files" myself, I probably would have believed her nonsense.

Lan Enmei has now turned into bones.

In the original drama, Gao Jie deliberately created a mystery in order to get Zhang Dayong to investigate Lan Enmei's case. She learned that Zhang Dayong was going to Repulse Bay to play and was going to buy a backpack.

She then followed Zhang Dayong and bought the same backpack at the same store, put a letter inside addressed to Deng Feng in the name of Lan Enmei, and found an opportunity to switch it with him.

Then that night, she had her sister Gao Min impersonate Lan Enmei and call him.

Because Lan Enmei had collected a lot of information about butterflies before she died, she told Gao Jie that butterflies could help her realize her dream of being with Wang Weian forever. Therefore, Gao Jie repeatedly emphasized that "butterflies kill people."

Gao Jie knew that such a strange thing as a dead person making phone calls and sending letters would definitely arouse Zhang Dayong's curiosity.

Sure enough, she successfully drew Zhang Dayong's attention to Lan Enmei's case.

Now, Gao Jie didn't contact Zhang Dayong, but instead asked him to help Lan Enmei overturn her case.

The methods used are slightly different from those in the original work, but the intention is still to use Lan Enmei's name to arouse his curiosity about her.

Since Gao Jie had gone to such lengths just to get him to investigate Lan Enmei's case, Li Fei naturally wouldn't expose her, since he was also somewhat interested in the case.

“Of course, how can I return it to you?” Li Fei asked.

"Deliver it to the second floor of No. 1, South Suburb Road."

"no problem."

After hanging up the phone, Li Fei put the butterfly back in the box, and then took the box to the second floor of No. 1 Nanjiao Road.

There was a bell next to the door, and Li Fei pressed it.

A short while later, the door opened, and a young man appeared before Li Fei, asking, "Who are you?"

"Excuse me, does Miss Lan Enmei live here?" Li Fei asked.

Upon hearing Li Fei's words, the young man's expression changed, and he said, "You're looking for my sister?"

"Miss Lan Enmei sent me the wrong thing, and I want to take it back to her."

Upon hearing this, Lan Enmei's younger brother smiled slightly and shook his head, saying, "Impossible, you must be mistaken."

Lan Enmei's younger brother mistook Li Fei for a swindler and then prepared to close the door.

Li Fei blocked it with his hand and said, "Hey, wait a minute, ask your sister first."

My sister died a year ago.

Seeing that Li Fei was still pestering her, Lan Enmei's younger brother said.

"died!"

Li Fei feigned surprise, knowing that Gao Jie was definitely watching him from nearby. He took out his badge and said, "I'm a police officer. Can we go in and talk?"

Lan Enmei carefully examined the police officer's ID in Li Fei's hand to confirm that he was a real policeman and not a fraudster before opening the iron gate and letting Li Fei into the house.
