Chapter 48 Top-notch acting skills? What's in the safe?
[The video is unwatchable, thumbs down!]

[I'm afraid after watching this, you won't be able to eat for the next few days, lol]

Despite the complaints, the number of viewers in the live stream actually increased instead of decreasing.

after all.

These days, there seem to be very few live streaming rooms that can broadcast live the scene of a body being hidden.

"Corn Baby, do you want to find a hotel to stay in tonight?"

Knowing that Nan Punian and the others were busy, Nan Shu was not in a hurry to ask. Instead, she started chatting with Cornstarch to divert her attention.

Upon hearing this, Cornstarch's face immediately fell. "I've been thinking about it too, but I just don't know which hotel would accept exotic pets staying with us."

She was worried about leaving Xiaoqing and the others alone in the temperature-controlled room, and she didn't want to go back here alone tomorrow...

【Me! Me! Me! I know a few hotels in Hangzhou that accept pets. As for exotic pets... you can call and ask, miss.】

I wouldn't want to come back here either; I'd want to move overnight!

Real estate agencies in Hangzhou are notorious for ripping people off, and there are many subletters. Moving hastily is not a good idea, as you can easily get scammed!

[Add one, add one, I've been scammed before. I didn't get back a single penny of my two-month deposit, and they even went so far as to assess the damage with a lantern, demanding an outrageous 30,000 yuan in compensation. I was so angry I almost laughed.]

The viewers in the live stream brainstormed and offered suggestions for cornstarch.

Nan Shu also took out her spare phone to check the hotel.

"you……"

Cornstarch puckered its lips and its eyes turned red, "How come everything is so nice?!"

"Don't be too touched. It's best to download an anti-fraud app on your phone first, otherwise, if you encounter this again, it might be a scam to sell you health products."

Nan Shu winked at the camera and teased.

The cornstarch burst out laughing.

Just as he was about to speak, he heard a knock on the door. He paused for a moment, and was about to open the door when he saw the door to the storage room open a crack. Nan Punian crawled out, closed the door behind him, and made a reassuring gesture to the cornstarch, signaling him to come over.

The cornstarch obediently stopped moving.

The door opens.

The landlord, Brother Hu's voice, came through the crack in the door.

"Xiaoyu, I heard from the property management..."

Hu Ge's words came to an abrupt halt when he saw Nan Pu Nian standing at the door.

He paused for a moment, then realized what was happening. He took a step back, glanced at the house number to confirm it was his own, and looked at Nan Punian with a puzzled expression: "You are...?"

Nan Punian gave a brief self-introduction and invited him in.

Brother Hu, whose full name is Hu Guang, is a second-generation demolition beneficiary. He has nothing else but a lot of houses.

The house that was rented to the cornstarch farmer was originally his own residence. Later, his family bought him a villa, and he moved in. Since the house was empty anyway, he thought he would rent it to a clean and tidy young woman to keep the house lively.

They happened to meet a cornstarch company that had just arrived in Hangzhou, and the two hit it off immediately, signing a contract that same day.

Seeing that the young girl lived alone, Hu Guang didn't charge her much extra money.

The young girl rarely bothered him, but today she called twice in a row, which aroused Hu Guang's suspicion. He wondered if the young girl had encountered a problem in the house but was too embarrassed to bother him.

Just as he was speculating, he received a call from the property management asking him to come over, which made Hu Guang even more certain of his guess.

Unexpectedly, it was the police who opened the door.

His heart jumped, but thankfully, when he entered the room and saw the unharmed little girl standing on the balcony, Hu Guang breathed a sigh of relief.

Followed by.

Another question arises: the little girl was fine, so why were the police called in all of a sudden?
"Mr. Hu said that the safe in the storage room belongs to your friend?"

Nan Punian asked Hu Guang to sit down, then got a chair for himself and sat opposite him, chatting casually with a hint of probing.

Hu Guang gave a blank "hmm".

He heard noises in the storage room; clearly, there were other people in the room besides the policeman in front of him.

"Could you do me a favor and invite your friend over here? We have some questions for him."

Nan Punian stared intently at Hu Guang with his dark eyes. From the moment Hu Guang entered the room until now, his confused and bewildered expression seemed genuine.

He genuinely didn't know what had happened. Hu Guang's suspicion suddenly diminished.

Therefore, the only plausible explanation is the second one.

“By the way, there’s no need to reveal that we’re here,” Nan Punian added.

Hu Guang understood.

He finally realized what had happened, remembering the little girl's phone call and the fact that someone was in the storage room...

"Officer, is there something wrong with that safe?"

Nan Punian gave him a deep look.

"I think it's better if you don't know."

Hu Guang: ...

Not knowing is scarier than knowing!

In an instant, a variety of thoughts raced through his mind, and Hu Guang's face turned deathly pale. He shakily pulled his phone out of his pocket.

Nan Punian frowned: "Calm down."

"Okay, okay... I'll calm down... calm down..." But his hands were shaking like he had Parkinson's disease.

Nan Pu Nian: ...

How come his mental fortitude is even worse than a young girl's?

Hu Guang took a deep breath, dialed his friend's number, and pressed the speakerphone button at Nan Punian's instruction.

"what happened?"

A tired male voice rang out, with the sound of a child crying in the background.

"Hey bro, long time no see! Come out and have some fun. Come to my place for drinks, I just got a bottle of good wine."

As it turns out, human potential is limitless. Hu Guang feels that his current acting skills are worthy of an Oscar.

"No, child..."

Before the other party could even utter their refusal, Hu Guang interrupted them.

"Mainly, I recently had a fight with my girlfriend, and I was hoping you could give me some advice since you have experience. Besides, it's been so long since we've seen each other since your twins were born. What? Are you cutting ties with us completely? Don't forget, your safe is still at my house. When are you planning to move it back?"

Whether it was the threat of ending things or the mention of the safe that had an effect, the other person was silent for a moment before asking, "Which house are you at?"

Obviously.

The people across the street also knew that Hu Guang's family owned many houses and often moved to different locations.

"The apartment where I keep my safe, the young lady moved out a few days ago, and it was just cleaned out today."

"Okay, I'll come right away."

After hanging up the phone, Hu Guang looked at Nan Punian.

Nan Pu Nian: ...

"Hmm, not bad, very good, top-notch acting skills," Nan Punian praised without any emotion.

Hu Guang grinned, a simple and honest smile on his face. He had only ever seen this kind of scene in TV dramas before, and he never expected to experience it himself today. It was quite exciting!

"By the way, officer, may I ask what's in the safe?"

Hu Guang glanced at the storage room.

Once the initial fear subsides, curiosity naturally arises.

Nan Punian said to him, "You wouldn't want to know."

Hu Guang: ...

What to do? I'm even more curious now.

When Hu Guang made the call, Cornstarch did not mute his microphone, and the viewers in the live stream could hear it clearly.

[It feels like watching a TV drama, so exciting!]
