Chapter 359 Family Property
Chapter 359 Family Property
Seeing Bai Mengfei walk towards the edge of the rooftop, Xiang Yuntian and Kelly followed in tacit agreement, standing on Bai Mengfei's left and right sides respectively, forming a confrontation with the people opposite.
"Should we notify Director Zhu now?" Xiang Yuntian asked in a low voice.
Bai Mengfei said calmly, "No, if Director Zhu rushes over there, it could cause panic among a large number of students. Don't forget, this is a school, and Building B across the street should be a teaching building."
Kelly bit her lip lightly, then estimated the distance between the rooftops on both sides, and said, "Maybe I can jump over here and grab him. I was a parkour pro when I was in America."
Upon hearing this, Bai Mengfei and Xiang Yuntian were both startled. They turned around simultaneously and stared at her in surprise.
"What's wrong?" Kelly turned around and looked at the two of them in surprise.
At this critical moment, Bai Mengfei put aside her personal grievances and firmly objected, saying, "Absolutely not!"
“Don’t you really want to catch him?” Kelly asked coldly.
Bai Mengfei shook her head repeatedly and said softly, "Even if you jump over, you might not be able to catch him. So you really don't need to take this risk."
Just as the three of them were talking, the man opposite them walked to the edge of the rooftop and shouted from afar, "Come and catch me! Didn't you want to capture me to claim credit? Let me tell you, I killed Mingjing!"
Although the voice was deliberately hoarse, Bai Mengfei still felt it sounded somewhat familiar.
So she slowly turned her head to look at the man opposite her, her face as gloomy as a sky covered with dark clouds.
In fact, she couldn't be sure whose voice it was for the moment, but it didn't sound like Zhen Liang's.
Why did she think of Zhen Liang first?
Because Bai Mengfei had a very unique way of thinking, she thought that Zhen Liang might have pretended to kidnap her in order to make Mingjing's case take more seriously and also to teach his family a lesson.
That's why she immediately suspected Zhen Liang.
But this voice was clearly not Zhen Liang's, because Zhen Liang's voice was somewhat childish and rather shrill.
Seeing that Bai Mengfei did not respond, Xiang Yuntian immediately said, "Don't worry, we will definitely bring you to justice. But it's not for personal gain, but to give the deceased an explanation!"
"Give the dead an explanation?" The murderer opposite him appeared extremely arrogant, his emotions running high. Standing on the edge of the rooftop, he spoke while gesturing wildly, "Heh heh, who can give me an explanation? In this absurd world, are the dead more important than the living?"
Upon hearing his words, Kelly blurted out, "What kind of suffering has he gone through? It feels like he harbors deep hatred!"
Xiang Yuntian also wanted to figure this out, so he asked, "Have you suffered some injustice? Why don't you tell us? Maybe we can help you. It's better than you killing innocent people indiscriminately."
"Indiscriminate killing?" The murderer laughed maniacally. "Tell you my grievances? You just want to extract information from my words to arrest me, don't you? You're dreaming! Ever since I killed Xueyi, I've already planned my own end. Let me tell you, even if I die, I won't let you succeed, I won't be caught by you! Hahaha..."
With that arrogant laugh, he turned around and left with his back to the three of them.
It's a pity the two buildings are more than twenty meters apart; otherwise, they could have rushed over and tried to subdue him. But since he dared to stand there, he probably had everything planned out.
Only after he disappeared did Bai Mengfei speak, saying, "This matter is definitely related to Ming Jing, and this person should be Ming Jing's friend. When you heard him call Ming Jing, he didn't call her by her full name, but by Xue Yi."
“That’s right!” Xiang Yuntian agreed.
Kelly rolled her eyes and said to Bai Mengfei, "Anyone could have thought of that, why did you have to tell me?"
They didn't leave the rooftop together until Zhu Heng called.
Just as he was driving away, Zhu Heng saw his brother-in-law, Zhen Chuan, calling him.
At first, he hesitated whether to answer the call.
"Take it!"
Hearing Bai Mengfei say this, he decisively answered the phone, but when he spoke to his brother-in-law, he was still a little hesitant: "Brother-in-law, the person hasn't been rescued yet, but don't worry, I will do my best."
In fact, Zhen Chuan had already prepared for the worst. He said, "If we can't rescue them, don't force it. If we don't have any clues right now, come to my house. I have something I want to talk to you about."
Although he didn't know what his brother-in-law was going to say, Zhu Heng understood that Zhen Chuan needed someone to accompany him right now because Zhen Liang was his weakness, and he couldn't confide in his wife, so he must be suffering a lot.
So he agreed to Zhen Chuan's request. However, after hanging up the phone, he felt a little timid and didn't dare to go to see his brother-in-law alone, so he asked Bai Mengfei and the others to accompany him.
Bai Mengfei and the other two readily agreed to his request.
The evening breeze carried a slight chill. On the second-floor balcony of the Zheng family's coffee shop, Bai Mengfei, Xiang Yuntian, Kelly, Zhu Heng, and Zhen Chuan sat casually around a table, each with a serious expression on their face.
Bai Mengfei was the boldest; she was the only one who dared to sit next to Zhen Chuan.
Zhen Chuan looked noticeably older than when Bai Mengfei had seen him at the dinner party that day.
You could tell from the bloodshot eyes that Zhen Chuan hadn't rested well, and might have even cried; his eyes were red.
After hesitating for a long time, Zhu Heng finally said, "Brother-in-law, don't worry too much. I'm a policeman, I'll definitely be able to rescue Xiao Liang, you have to believe me."
Unexpectedly, Zhen Chuan took out a stack of file folders from his briefcase, which was lying on the side of the table, and placed them on the table, saying, "These are all the shares, bonds, and assets under the Zhen family's name. Brother-in-law, do me a favor and talk to that thug. If he releases my son, all of this will be his!"
"Brother-in-law!" Zhu Heng immediately pressed his hand on the stack of files, saying in a panic, "How could you think like that? It's useless. Put yourself in his shoes. Even if he gets these assets, he'll still be caught by the police!"
Unexpectedly, Zhen Chuan had even considered this point. He nodded, his voice choked with emotion, and said, "Yes, so I've thought of everything for him. I've hired the world's top accountants to cash out all these assets and deposit the money in a Swiss bank. As long as he agrees to release Xiao Liang and not harm him, he can become rich overnight and live a peaceful life abroad."
