On the way to Xinghui KTV, Lin Xiangcheng explained the entrusted content in detail to Xia Wei and sent Yu Jian's photo to her.

"I thought the plots played in the TV series were all exaggerated, but I didn't expect that this kind of thing was really happening in reality." Xia Wei said astonished with wide eyes.

"Otherwise, how could there be any statement that works of art originate from life?" Lin Xiangcheng shrugged.

Xia Wei frowned and said, "Isn't that Yu Jian a liar?"

"Who knows, it has nothing to do with the content of the commission anyway." Lin Xiangcheng glanced at her and reminded, "Our job is to find people. Don't interfere with anything else that is unrelated, and try to avoid getting involved in the client's affairs."

"I understand, Detective." Xia Wei made a face and smiled.

"You want to call me boss." Lin Xiangcheng pretended to have a serious expression.

"As for orders, boss!" Xia Wei cooperated and straightened her waist and looked upright. As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help but giggle.

After a while, the two arrived at Xinghui KTV, not far from Shengming Academy.

It was only after 2:00 p.m., and there was no one visiting the KTV. The lobby was empty. Behind the bar, there was only a sleepy young man playing with his phone, yawning from time to time.

"Are we going to ask the person inside to ask about Yu Jian's whereabouts?" Xia Wei leaned into the glass door and turned to Lin Xiangcheng and asked.

Lin Xiangcheng nodded: "His colleagues may know something."

"Okay, look at mine."

Xia Wei said as she opened the small bag she carried with her, took out the earrings and necklace straps from it, took out the tools to simplify the makeup, applied royal blue eyeshadow and lip makeup, then pulled up the hem of the T-shirt and tied a knot at a high place, revealing the flat and compact belly, and the slender proportions and smooth curves made her look particularly eye-catching.

After finishing cleaning, she suddenly felt a little hot and seductive.

Lin Xiangcheng was amazed at the sight. He just tinkered with a few random tricks and his image changed suddenly. This skill is really amazing.

"It's a pity that I didn't wear nail polish, otherwise it would be better to apply it. But forget it, it's almost done, let's go in." Xia Wei winked at Lin Xiangcheng and took the lead in walking into the KTV.

Seeing someone coming in, the young man behind the bar raised his head from the screen of his mobile phone and asked lazily: "What bag do you want?"

"Just like a mini bag." Xia Wei walked up, slapped on the bar, and said with a smile, "Handsome guy, ask you something, Brother Jian is working here, right?"

The young man looked at Xia Wei a few times and saw that she was dressed in cool clothes and had healthy skin, and was wearing earrings and necklaces. Except for the shoes that were not high heels and had no tattoos, it was basically in line with the image of often coming to such places to play. He didn't doubt anything and said casually: "Is Yu Jian? He works here."

"What about others? I have something to do with him."

"You don't have his phone number?" The young man glanced at Xia Wei.

"Aren't you here to ask for a phone call? Last time I saw him at Shengming Academy, I thought he looked quite like my taste, so I thought about coming to him to add a friend. Look, I took a secret photo at that time." Xia Wei took out her cell phone and showed Yu Jian's photo to the young man, "I asked for a long time before I found out that Brother Jian works in Xinghui KTV."

Seeing the photo, the young man looked slow and glanced at Lin Xiangcheng behind him.

"This is my dear brother. It's so dangerous for me to come alone in this kind of place, so I asked him to accompany me."

After hearing this, the suspicion in the young man's eyes completely dissipated. He smiled and said, "You are late. Yu Jian has disappeared for two weeks. He doesn't answer the phone. The boss has fired him."

"Ah, where did he go?" Xia Wei pretended to be surprised.

"I don't know this anymore, I'm not familiar with him." The young man shrugged.

The two chatted for a few more times, then Xia Wei made an excuse and said that something happened temporarily, so she pulled Lin Xiangcheng and left.

"Do you come to places like this often?"

Walking out of the KTV gate, Lin Xiangcheng couldn't help asking, how could Xia Wei look at her actions just now?

"I have been here many times when I haven't started working. I'm not interested in singing duet K, but it's hard to refuse the dormitory and class gatherings."

After a distance from KTV, Xia Wei took off the earrings necklace, took out the tools from her small bag and started to remove makeup.

"In this kind of place, you must not be like a good girl student, otherwise it will be easily harassed, and it is safer to wear makeup."

Lin Xiangcheng suddenly realized.

Indeed, it is inconsistent with what the public believes. Among the victims of X-ray, those hot girls wearing sexy tattoos account for only a small number of them. On the contrary, honest girls who look easy to bully are more likely to make criminals excited.

Especially in places like KTV and bars.

"How about it, my assistant is not bad, right?" Xia Wei raised her eyebrows at Lin Xiangcheng with a little pride, and her face returned to a plain face but full of youthful atmosphere.

Lin Xiangcheng simply gave her a thumbs up.

If Xia Wei is also a professional, then her [negotiation] skill is at least level ten.

"What should I do next? Even Yu Jian's colleagues don't know where he went. How do we find him?" Xia Wei returned to the topic.

"Go to the rental house where he lives, and you may find a clue." Lin Xiangcheng handed Xia Wei the paper with the address written on it, "You are more familiar with me in this place, see if you know the way."

Xia Wei took it and nodded, "It's not far from here, you can get there after walking a few hundred meters."

Thinking about it, Yu Jian would never choose a place far away from his workplace to live.

"Let's go."

Lin Xiangcheng asked Xia Wei to lead the way without saying a word.

Communities with well-equipped facilities are very rare in the South District. Most of them are either old communities left decades ago, or small apartments and rental houses.

Yu Jian lives in a convenient place belongs to the latter.

Walking through the street full of dark brown water, the two came to a dilapidated apartment building.

The apartment building is a four-story structure, with a half-person-high guardrail on the other side of the corridor, and rows of doors can be clearly seen from the street.

The building has obviously gone through a long time. There are still yellow creepers left on the mottled walls. The stairs are covered with rust. When they step on them, they will make a squeaking sound, as if they will collapse at any time, which is terrifying.

Yu Jian's room is located on the top floor, and Lin Xiangcheng and Xia Wei quickly found their destination along the door number.

Without Lin Xiangcheng reminding him, Xia Wei took the initiative to step forward and knocked on the door and shouted: "Is anyone here?"

Lin Xiangcheng retreated to the other side of the door and just avoided the crack of the door.

If there is someone in the room, then a girl knocks on the door, obviously it is less likely to make the other party be wary than an adult male knocking on the door.

Unfortunately, after more than half a minute, no response came from inside.

Xia Wei pulled the door handle, and the door was locked and could not be opened. So she turned to look at Lin Xiangcheng, wanting to ask what to do next, but found that the latter was staring at the ground intently.

"What's wrong?"

Following Lin Xiangcheng's gaze, what caught my eye was a black and brown stain that was twisted and twisted into a line, extending outward from the bottom of the door crack and spreading more than one meter in the direction of the stairs.

"This is..." Xia Wei seemed to have thought of something, and her eyes changed slightly.

"Bloods." Lin Xiangcheng confirmed her guess. He had rich experience in fighting and easily identified what these dark and brown marks were. "It seems that the target we are looking for is not very good."
