Gene Fusion System: Crime Hunter-Chapter 765 - 376: New Clues? Underground Treasure Hunt!_2

Luo Fei also responded with a smile.

"You've done well."

Hearing Luo Fei's praise.

The other party also laughed sheepishly.

"Leader Luo, this is just a family trick, a trivial matter, not worth mentioning."

The locksmith spoke with some pride.

Luo Fei finally followed Li Yu into the villa.

Just looking at the house being so big.

Li Yu suddenly felt a bit worried.

"Leader Luo, this house is too large. If we search room by room, who knows how long it will take to find what we need."

Li Yu was a bit frustrated.

A trace of unease appeared on his face.

But Luo Fei spoke very seriously.

"Li Yu, you don't need to worry about this. I've already thought it through."

From Luo Fei's tone, one could sense he was somewhat smug.

Li Yu couldn't help but grow interested.

"Leader Luo, what good method have you thought of?"

"Nothing exists in the first place, so where can dust alight?"

Luo Fei pointed to the furniture in the room as he spoke.

"Look, the furniture in this room is practically all covered with white cloth. What does this indicate?"

"Dust, dust? Does it mean that the areas not covered by white cloth might be where we find what we are looking for?"

Li Yu immediately understood Luo Fei's hint.

He followed this line of thought.

They started searching the villa.

Yet after searching the first and second floors thoroughly.

They found nothing.

But when they reached the third floor.

They discovered.

A room door with several locks.

Looking at those locks, including traditional ones, anti-theft, and fingerprint locks.

This made the locksmith standing beside them instantly feel a headache.

"Leader Luo, it's not that I can't unlock these locks.

But even if I tackle them one by one, it might take hours to open this room's door."

The locksmith's mouth twitched, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Luo Fei understood too.

These locks were hard to open.

But Luo Fei glanced outside the window in the hallway opposite the room.

"Master, you stay here and work on the locks. Li Yu and I will go down to check the situation."

As he spoke, Luo Fei winked at Li Yu.

Seeing Luo Fei actually intending to go down with him.

Li Yu was somewhat worried.

"Leader Luo, are you sure it's okay to leave him alone there?"

Li Yu was worried. After all, this locksmith used to be a petty thief.

No one could guarantee he wouldn't return to his old ways.

But Luo Fei completely disregarded it.

Instead, after reaching the backyard.

He stared at a vacant plot in the garden for quite a while.

"It's right here."

With Luo Fei saying this, he handed Li Yu a shovel, and began digging himself.

Seeing that he actually handed him a shovel.

Li Yu thought he was seeing things.

"Leader Luo, are you trying to find the evidence Wang Chuan buried here?"

At this time, Li Yu was genuinely surprised.

She truly didn't expect.

Luo Fei would intend for her to work as manual labor.

But seeing Li Yu appearing amused yet frustrated.

Luo Fei just laughed.

"Li Yu, don't be nervous. After all, there might be nothing here, so we have to be mentally prepared."

As Luo Fei spoke, he continued digging downwards.

Although Li Yu was a bit unwilling, she was never a delicate girl.

Although she came from a technical background, she could still be of use at critical times.

So with both of them working together.

It didn't take long for the ground to be dug open.

"Leader Luo, is there really something we're looking for down here?"

Seeing the skeptical expression on Li Yu's face.

After all, they had already dug several meters, but found nothing.

But Luo Fei knew.

This piece of ground was unique.

Not to mention the surrounding areas all had flowers and plants.

Only here was a void.

The scent coming from this ground was also different from other places.

"Li Yu, can't you smell it? There's actually a strange sweet smell here."

"Sweet smell?"

Li Yu was initially puzzled, not understanding Luo Fei's words.

But a moment later, she saw many small ants around.

This instantly gave her goosebumps.

"Oh no!"

Li Yu almost jumped out of the pit instantly, then rummaged through her little bag.

As she finally found a small spray bottle inside, she quickly sprayed her fair ankle twice.

But immediately, she worriedly asked.

"Team Leader Luo, will doing this affect the final investigation results?"

It was clear that Li Yu was a bit scared.

She seemed concerned about possibly disturbing the scene.

But Luo Fei said.

"It's okay, you don't need to worry."

Only then did Li Yu notice.

These ants seemed to have built a nest underground.

And there was a peculiar sweet aroma seeping from below.

Like the kind you'd only find with soda or some soft drink.

Thud!

In the next second.

As Luo Fei seemed to hit something with his shovel.

Li Yu forgot about the ants and hurried forward to help him unearth the soil around the hard object.

But at that moment.

Li Yu was surprised to discover.

There wasn't a single ant near Luo Fei.

It felt like the ants were avoiding him.

But Luo Fei didn't have any special fragrance on him either.

This left Li Yu a bit puzzled.

"Got it!"

Just as she was lost in thought.

Luo Fei suddenly shouted excitedly.

Following Luo Fei's gaze.

Li Yu saw.

Before her eyes was an iron box.

And it had been specially wrapped with several layers of burlap on the outside.

Almost simultaneously, Luo Fei also dialed Han Tiesheng's number.

"Old Han, how's the investigation on your side going?"

"Team Leader Luo, the scene inspection is basically done. We've already regrouped. Now we just wait for the lab to issue a report."

Old Han was somewhat pleased.

After all, today's work had been relatively light. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Especially with Cai Junfeng and Wei Xiaochen voluntarily helping with trace examinations and autopsies.

Han Tiesheng couldn't be more at ease.

"That's perfect. Since you're free, I'll send you an address. Come over."

Upon hearing Luo Fei's instructions.

Han Tiesheng's interest was instantly piqued.

"Team Leader Luo, does this mean there's a big mission?"

Han Tiesheng's tone carried a bit of anticipation.

Luo Fei neither confirmed nor denied.

"That's right, it's a big task. You might want to bring a van over."

Luo Fei said, ending the call.

Han Tiesheng was still jubilantly assuming there was a nice job waiting for him.

"Team Leader Luo, I've unlocked the door."

Almost simultaneously.

The locksmith upstairs poked his head out, his forehead beaming with joyful sweat.

He looked incredibly excited.

Even somewhat eagitated.

Yet Luo Fei smiled and said.

"Master, thank you for your hard work, but we won't be needing your services for now."

Luo Fei said, asking him to come down.

Although he was fairly sure the key evidence was inside the box.

But just to be safe, Luo Fei still planned to check it out up there.

Wee-woo wee-woo—!

Almost simultaneously.

Han Tiesheng had already arrived at the villa entrance.

A van followed behind the police car.

"Team Leader Luo, what task do you have for me? I'm really curious." Looking at Han Tiesheng's face, there was some expectation.

But Luo Fei just smiled it off.

"Han Tiesheng, we just checked, and the box contains some videotapes and discs. So you might have to work hard tonight, watching videos with the team."

Videotapes?

At first, Han Tiesheng thought Luo Fei discovered some kind of contraband videotapes.

So he asked a bit uneasily.

"Team Leader Luo, isn't it inappropriate for us to watch something like this in the major crimes unit at night?"

Seeing his expression a bit odd.

Luo Fei also asked with slight amusement.

"Old Han, what are you thinking about? These tapes are backups of various children's events from the training class years ago. There's also some TV station interviews, not what you're thinking!"

Luo Fei's reminder.

Suddenly made Old Han realize.

"So that's what it's about."

At this moment, he also noticed Li Yu beside him, seemingly looking at him with a bit of disdain.

The expression clearly implying that Old Han had misunderstood, wondering what in the world was he thinking.
