Trafford’s Trading Club Chapter 351

Chapter 351

Translator: AlfredoPoutineSoup  Editor: DesTheSloth

A group of policemen were discussing about the case of Zhao Ru in the office.

“What a tricky woman!”

The policewoman, who was hurt by Zhao Ru, said angrily, “She knew she couldn’t escape, which was why she confessed. However, she admits only to blackmailing as she knows clearly that the penalty won’t be harsh.”

“Yes, the victims have died. We can’t find anything about their conversation. So she can say whatever she wants to say. Zhao Ru can use this point if she has a lawyer.”

One policeman punched his own hand, and said in a deflated voice, “That’s what we worry most.”

Ma Houde massaged his forehead. He said after a while, “Zhao Ru must have some way to contact the dead secretly. No matter via cell-phones, emails or envelopes, there must be some records. Go to the mobile network operators and check the communication logs for the last 2 months of Zhao Ru as well as the students’.”

Ma Houde added after thinking for a moment, “And designate a dozen members to search the houses of those dead students to see if there are any details. I think there must be some clues that we overlooked last time”

Ma Houde clapped firmly and raised his voice, “That’s all. Go ahead. This case is pretty complex, let’s achieve it together. I’ll treat you all to big meals after success.”

He paused and talked to a young police officer, “You go to Gu Feng’s house with me for a second inquiry.”

“Yes!”

It seemed that the detention room was bigger than Zhao Ru’s apartment.

If the furniture were excluded, this was much bigger than her room. Even though, Zhao Ru couldn’t move anymore since she was imprisoned.

She lay on the tatty bed. The toilet was next to the bed, which was made from the cement.

What she couldn’t bear was the smell of toilet.

Zhao Ru reached out to her collar subconsciously. But she stopped soon and became flustered gradually.

The feeling was just like that a habit that was forcefully chopped away, causing one to be unable to get used to it both psychologically and physically. At this moment, Zhao Ru was just like a person that went cold-turkey on smoking. She started fidgeting.

Zhao Ru got up at once, then squatted down in order to look at the empty bed.

She stood up and stepped forward. She could do nothing but watch the entrance while gripping the bars.

“It’s gone…”

She tried to recall every detail while grasping her collar.

“Are you looking for this?”

She heard a woman asking her with a pleasant voice behind her back.

Zhao Ru turned back. She saw a beautiful and eccentric-looking girl under the dim light.

The girl’s eyes were as blue as the sea, which seemed as if it could swallow her immediately.

Zhao Ru couldn’t move her eyes from the girl as the girl was holding the necklace which she was looking for. Zhao Ru stepped forward, her hands grabbing the necklace instinctively.

Of course, she failed— the servant girl stepped back easily.

It was just one step. However, that one step was the one that made Zhao Ru not able to reach the necklace.

“Return it to me!”

“Shouldn’t you ask who I am? Why am I here? Rather than asking for the necklace…” Miss. Maid raised the necklace slightly and smiled, “It seems that it is really important to you… In other words, you have relied on it for a long time. How long have you kept it?”

Zhao Ru shivered as if hit by a cold blast of air. She retreated to the bars and then calmed down.

She remembered that the door of this detention room had not been opened since she was here. How could this odd girl come in?

Seeing the girl walking toward her, Zhao Ru was alarmed and said in a tremulous voice, “What… are you going to do?”

Miss. Maid stood with Zhao Ru face to face. She pinched her chin with smiles, “Relax, I’m not going to hurt you.”

Miss. Maid opened her mouth slightly and blew a breath of air at Zhao Ru. Zhao Ru then became stunned at once.

You Ye was pleased with Zhao Ru’s reaction. She took her hands and sat with her on the bed.

You Ye put her hands on Zhao Ru’s hand back and whispered, “Can you please tell me where you got this necklace?”

“I bought it from a jeweler in Ying Chuan building.”

“When did you buy it?”

“Three months ago…”

“Have you kept it with you all the time?”

“Yes.”

You Ye put this necklace in her hands after watching for a while. She kept her palms on Zhao Ru’s face and turned her head around.

Miss. Maid knew what her master thought. He gave the necklace to her instead of taking it back.

That meant that she could do anything to this necklace.

What master wanted to know was just how Zhao Ru got the necklace.

“Since you kept it all the time, pay attention and not lose it again.”

She returned the necklace to Zhao Ru and helped her wear it.

“Actually, she is quite pretty.”

After that, You Ye helped to fix Zhao Ru’s fringe and collar before vanishing.

In the evening, Gu Feng opened the door. He saw Ma Houde and another officer standing outside.

It could be obviously seen that he was impatient. “Mr. Ma, why are here? My home was shattered because of you.”

Ma Houde was not going to be friendly with him. “Did you think you could hide the fact of your extramarital affair, if it wasn’t discovered by me?”

“Why are you here?” Gu Feng leaned against the door and smoked. “Is there any news about my wife? What are you officers doing every day? She has been lost for several days but there are still no updates from the police!”

“Don’t worry, We will give you an update.” Ma Houde added, “We have locked down a range of places by tracing the bank slip. We will find her soon if there are no exceptions.”

“That sounds good.” Gu Feng responded, “Anything else?”

Ma Houde could not be bothered to talk to Gu Feng anymore. He pushed Gu Feng away and entered into the house.

“Wait, I didn’t allow you come in!” Gu Feng frowned.

But the young police pushed against his chest gently and said, “This is a search warrant. Your resistance is not a problem. So please behave yourself, OK?”

“You…” Gu Feng stopped talking reluctantly. He was discontent but didn’t have a choice, thus saying aggressively, “Don’t dirty my place! I am really wondering what needs to be checked. You have already searched thoroughly last time.”

Ma Houde ignored him and entered into Gu Jiajie’s room. He began checking this small room but no useful information could be found.

Ma Houde was turning page after page in boredom.

Gu Feng stared at Ma Houde while leaning against the door. Ma Houde put down the book, “Have you cleaned this room?”

Gu Feng answered, “No, we haven’t touched anything in this room since my wife disappeared.”

Ma Houde nodded. He stepped on something just as he was going to leave.

Ma Houde squatted down directly on the carpet which was next to the window.

It was so small that Ma Houde almost ignored it.

Ma Houde opened the carpet and found out a little white pill under the carpet.

It seemed to have fallen down on the ground accidentally. Part of the pill was shattered, which might have been caused by other police officers during the first search.

Ma Houde picked the pill up with a raised eyebrow.

The strange thing that Mr. Qin mentioned occurred in his mind abruptly.

“What did you find?” Gu Feng and the other police walked toward him curiously.

Ma Houde opened his fist and asked, “Did your son eat pills? How about his health?”

Gu Feng glanced at it and said, “I am not sure, He should be alright? After all, he is old enough to take care of his himself well.”

“When did your son have his last physical examination?” Ma Houde rolled his eyes and continued to ask.

Gu Feng said impatiently, “I don’t know!”

“Is he your son?”

“No, He is not my biological son!” Gu Feng snorted.

Ma Houde stood up with a sense of pressure, which made Gu Feng step backward. Gu Feng said, “What do you want to do?”

“Nothing, just going out to eat a midnight snack. You want me to eat in your home?”

“No… Please go ahead.”

“Hello, Old Qin, are you still in the laboratory? Can you help me to analyze something? Don’t leave, I’ll be right there…”

Ma Houde said to the young police after calling. “Drive me to the lab, quickly.”

“Sir, aren’t you going to eat a late night snack…”

“Drive, no more words!”

“Well…Fine…”
