After dripping the mixed perfume onto the scent paper, Yunxi looked at the time on his phone, got up and walked out of his workroom.
There were soft footsteps on the stairs. Seeing Tang Si walking up the stairs, Yunxi greeted him with a look of surprise.
"Are you tired? Are you hungry? I'll ask the butler to help you get some midnight snacks?"
Things about the prosperous Tang Dynasty were already enough to keep him busy, plus he had to investigate the "Vulture" thing.
The Tangsi has been so busy every day lately that I haven't been home for several days.
"No need." Tang Si smiled back at her, "I'm not hungry."
Noticing the bloodshot eyes, Yunxi frowned in distress.
She could guess without asking that he hadn't slept much in the past few days.
"How many times have I told you that your body is the most important thing, but you don't listen!" She frowned and pulled him into the bathroom, turned on the hot water switch on the bathtub, turned around, and helped him unbutton one by one, "Have you got any clues lately?
?”
"Recently, the police seized some drugs, and after comparison, they found that they were exactly the same as those seized on the Sea King."
"You mean, they also have dens in the imperial capital."
"It's very possible." Tang Si put his arms around her waist, pulled the girl into his arms and hugged her, "I've been too busy recently, so I probably won't be able to take care of you."
"It's okay!" Yunxi helped him unbutton the last button on his chest, raised his face and smiled back at him, "You are busy with your business, I will take care of myself."
He raised his right hand, held her cheek, and spoke softly.
"We will get married after the 'Vulture' matter is resolved."
"good."
Yunxi responded with a smile.
Their eyes met, and feelings secretly arose.
The arms around her waist tightened, and Tang Si bent down, lowering his head to her lips.
He kissed the corner of her lips gently, then naturally deepened the kiss.
Yunxi's palm also lifted from his chest, wrapped around his neck, and responded with his face raised.
The kiss gradually deepened.
Both of them were breathing significantly faster.
He took a step forward, squeezed her against the bathroom wall, and Tang Si reached out and pulled off her shoulder straps.
Buzz——
In his suit pocket, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.
Tang Si kissed her and ignored her.
The phone was still ringing stubbornly, but the caller didn't seem to give up at all.
"Husband!" Yunxi pushed him gently, "Why don't you answer the phone first?"
With his hands on her waist, Tang Si's face was still buried in her chest.
He took out his cell phone from his pocket and put it to his ear.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Tang, it's me." On the phone, Tang Chi choked with sobs, "Shanmao's wife... something happened!"
After listening to Tang Chi's words, Tang Si's right hand holding the phone tightened little by little.
"I understand, I'll be right over."
He raised his hand, stuffed his phone back into his pocket, and stood up straight.
"I'm sorry, Xixi, I have to go there right away."
"What happened?"
"Something happened to Shanmao's wife." Tang Si frowned and tightened the placket of his shirt again, "You should go to bed early and make sure to lock the doors and windows."
Yunxi hurried out of the bathroom, "I'll change clothes and go with you. Maybe I can help."
"Xixi!" Tang Si strode over, grabbed her arm, and said in a deep voice, "She doesn't need a doctor anymore."
Yunxi was stunned and turned around in disbelief.
"She...is dead?"
Tang Si gritted his teeth and nodded.
"Sleep well, I'm leaving first."
Turning around, he strode out of the bedroom, buttoned his clothes all the way, and hurriedly got out of the car and left.
Yunxi stood in the corridor, watching his car drive away, his eyebrows tightening more and more.
"These bastards!"
They didn't let a defenseless woman go?
Tang Si's car drove all the way into the city and stopped in front of a hotel.
I ran all the way downstairs and reached the third floor.
In the corridor, staff are already conducting on-site evidence collection and investigation.
Taking the shoe covers handed to him by Tang Chi and putting them on his shoes, Tang Si stepped into the hotel room.
"Don't let Shanmao know about this matter yet."
Tang Chi nodded: "I know."
In the guest room, a young woman was lying on her back on the bed, covered with a sheet.
The side of the bed was covered with scattered blood and torn clothes.
Just by looking at the scene, you can tell how humiliated and abused she was before her death.
Even though Tang Si had been on a real battlefield and witnessed many deaths, he was still moved by it.
"Are you sure it's the Vulture man?"
A forensic doctor came over on his own initiative and handed the camera in his hand to Tang Si.
A photo is displayed on the camera's display screen.
On the woman's left breast, a silhouette of a "vulture" was cut with a knife.
Tang Si's fist hanging by his side was clenched little by little.
"asshole!"
"They also left a letter."
The forensic doctor took the evidence bag next to him and handed a letter enclosed in the bag to Tang Si.
Taking the gloves handed over by Tang Chi and putting them on his hands, Tang Si opened the evidence bag, took out the letter and opened it.
The letter was written in blood.
"Now, I know it's you!"
Tang Si's eyebrows jumped heavily.
Stuffing the letter back into the bag and throwing it into the forensic doctor's hands, he turned around and rushed downstairs.
"Mr. Tang!"
Tang Chi hurriedly followed, followed Tang Si all the way downstairs, and rushed into the underground parking lot.
In the parking lot, a black car with its brand removed roared out of the parking lot.
Tang Si strode after him and saw only the taillights of the car disappearing into the traffic.
"Mr. Tang?" Tang Chi strode to his side, "What are you doing?"
Tang Si frowned and stood there: "This is a trap."
"Trap?" Tang Chi didn't understand, "What do you mean?"
"Their target is not the Bobcat, they just want to lure me out deliberately." Tang Si pursed his thin lips and squeezed out a few words between his teeth, "Now, they succeeded!"
"You mean..."
Tang Chi reacted, with a look of annoyance on his face.
"I'm so stupid. Why didn't I think of that? I...I shouldn't have called you. Now they must know it's you."
Under the command of Tang Si, the Neptune and his crew successfully destroyed one of the other party's drug manufacturing dens, and the seized drugs were worth more than 200 million.
The other party will definitely take revenge for such a heavy loss.
Tang Si has retired. Even if the other party finds out about this operation, it is impossible to find out about him.
The other party deliberately killed Shanmao's wife just to lure Tang Si out and find out who was in charge of this operation.
The call Tang Chi made to Tang Si just happened to help him.
The car just now was probably the man left behind by the other party to monitor it.
By now, the other party must have known Tang Si's identity.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Tang!" Tang Chi said with regret on his face, "If they knew it was you, they would definitely not let you go."
"What I'm worried about is not myself." Tang Si frowned, "but Xixi!"
Once the other party knows that he is the commander-in-chief of this operation, they will definitely retaliate against him at all costs.
