After Sheng Muyi entered the suite, she didn't come out from the door or go out from the window, and just disappeared out of thin air.Not only was she missing, but also the suitcase and dressing box she had brought into the room.

Of course, not everything disappeared, and what was left on the floor of the room was a set of clothes she had changed, which she wore when she attended the ceremony, which seemed to prove that she had indeed entered the suite.

The dinner was cancelled, and the guests were informed that there was an unexpected change. Naturally, the all-night performance that had been prepared was also cancelled. The famous actresses all got the pre-negotiated rewards and dispersed separately.

As time passed, all possibilities became impossible, and Sheng Youde knew that he had to notify the police.

Fortunately, the police did not evacuate, and the police chief was invited to tell what happened.The chief of the Shanghai police was originally a soldier. Because of his background in politics, he got this job, but he knew nothing about solving crimes.

Sheng Youde looked anxiously at the police chief in front of him, as if the other party would conjure up his daughter.The police chief smiled, pointed to a young man behind him and said: This is the most capable Inspector Zhang in our police station.

Although Zhang Ziyang is only 22 years old, he is already a well-known detective in Shanghai. He has solved several major and suspicious cases and gained fame from this.

In that chaotic era, many criminal cases occurred every day, and Shanghai Bund was no exception, so the police and detectives never had to worry about no cases to handle.

Zhang Ziyang and Sheng Youde had met several times, but they had no special friendship. He listened to what happened and felt that this was a very difficult case.The more difficult it is, the more interested he is. For an excellent police detective, challenges are the best teacher.

Zhang Ziyang interrogated the two bodyguards and several maids, and everyone spoke in unison. They saw the lady enter the suite with their own eyes, but after the suite was opened, the lady disappeared.

If it is said that Sheng Muyi came out secretly during this time period, it is impossible. First, there are two bodyguards standing outside the door without blinking eyes. Furthermore, the hanging chain inside means that no one came out. If there is no one in the room, the hanging chain It is absolutely impossible to hang the latch.

Then the most likely thing is that someone really came in through the window, or it may have been lurking in the suite long ago, kidnapped or even murdered Sheng Muyi after she entered, and then took her to escape through the window.

Kidnapping Sheng Muyi is fine, why take away Sheng Muyi's suitcase and dressing box?Is it worried that she has no replacement clothes, no cosmetics to use?This kidnapper is a bit hypocritical.

The police set up a task force headed by Zhang Ziyang and formally opened the case for investigation.

The first step in the investigation was to collect evidence. The evidence at the scene was extremely limited, only the suite and a dress in the suite, and the witnesses involved only two bodyguards.

Zhang Ziyang conducted a thorough investigation of the two bodyguards and found no doubts.Ordinarily, the only possibility of this case is that the two bodyguards colluded with outsiders to jointly kidnap Sheng Muyi, and then escaped through other passages of the hotel.

Although this possibility is very remote, especially this concept has an obvious loophole, which is the locked lanyard inside the suite, which can only be hung by people inside, and there is no way to hang it outside.Zhang Ziyang has done dozens of experiments, but the results are not valid.

Seven days later, with no progress, the police investigation has stalled.

Sheng Youde lost his temper and called his nephew Sheng Di.

"Go quickly and find Buping immediately."

Knowing that his uncle was referring to Lu Ming, Sheng Di opened a detective agency in Shanghai where no one visited.

"Uncle, Buping has gone back to his hometown a long time ago. I heard that he was forced by his family to get married, so he is not in Shanghai." Sheng Di said cautiously.

"Then send someone to his hometown of Huzhou, and tell him that I invited him back. No matter what happens, let him put it down and return to Shanghai immediately!" Sheng Youde roared with bloodshot eyes.

"Uncle, do you want to..."

"I'm going to hand over Mu Yi's case to him. Isn't it true that no one hires him? I'll hire him to find Mu Yi. You immediately draft a document to hire him to investigate the case with full authority."

"But, can injustice be okay? I'm worried..." Sheng Di hesitated to speak with a suspicious tone.

"Zhang Ziyang from the police station is that detective. He said that the police station has done their best, but they are at their wits end. He said that if there is only one person in this world who can solve this case, it will be an uneven road."

Lu Ming didn't know anything about Sheng Muyi's disappearance. He was in his hometown of Huzhou when the incident happened.

He was forced to go back by his mother. The marriage has been settled for six or seven years, and he is not young anymore, so he can't always delay like this.His younger brother got married last year, but he returned from studying in the United States and is still floating in Shanghai alone.It won't work like this, if you don't marry a daughter-in-law at such a young age, it will make people laugh, and the Lu family can't afford to lose this person.

It's not like Lu Ming really wants to be a bachelor all his life. It's okay to get married sooner or later. However, he has been studying in the United States for a few years, his mind is full of foreign ideas, his career has just started, and he has no ability to support his wife and children.If you can't afford it, you won't get married. If you can't afford it, he will definitely not do it.

The old lady didn't think so. Marrying a son's wife is the top priority. Since ancient times, it has been the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker. She has decided and must obey her.

Lu Ming, who always pretended to be very intelligent, was trapped at home, unable to do anything. The old lady gave strict orders to everyone in the house. Even when he went to the latrine, there was a special person to follow him, so that he might escape by other means.

Lu Ming couldn't bear to be tough, his mother had always doted on him, and always supported him unconditionally in whatever he wanted to do.After he returned from studying in the United States, he didn't go back to his hometown. He went directly to Shanghai to open a detective agency. The old lady didn't stop her when she had ideas, although she didn't know what a detective agency was for.

Just when Lu Ming was about to accept his fate and get married, good news came suddenly. Yuan Mingzhu, his fiancée, ran away from home.

When the Lu family heard the news, they were like a thunderbolt. What is this?The Lu family was escaped from marriage!

Strictly speaking, this marriage was not arranged by the parents, and it could even be said that it happened naturally.Lu Ming and his fiancée Yuan Mingzhu were childhood sweethearts, and they also fell in love with each other after they grew up.The parents of the two families tore the window paper once after a banquet, and they settled the marriage, and both of them expressed their willingness to accept each other.

Not long after the marriage was settled, Lu Ming went to study in the United States. It was almost five years since he was separated. After he came back, he also visited Yuan's house.

He didn't dare to refute it at the time, he just said that he would go back to ask his parents for instructions, so he fooled the matter away. After he returned home, he didn't dare to stay at all, let alone tell his parents about it. opened in a hurry.

Lu Ming didn't object to this marriage. On the contrary, if anyone dared to interfere with Huang's marriage, he wouldn't do it. He just didn't want to get married too early and wanted to support the family by himself.

Lu Ming is 22 years old this year. At this age, those friends in his hometown have already had children.The children of rich families have nothing to do at home, and having children one after another is the most important thing in their lives.

All of this is reasonable and reasonable to the older generation, and they have come from this generation. They know that this life is short and impermanent, so they should dedicate their best years to the succession of the family. It is the foundation of the clan's eternal continuity and the foundation of a family's prosperity.

The sage said: There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest of which is to have no descendants.

But in Lu Ming's view, getting married at the age of 22 is really outrageous. Young people should focus on their careers, not their wives and children. Once they get married, they will have children, and then there will be endless Tired, how can I have the energy to work hard in my career?

The ancestors of the Lu family have accumulated more than a dozen properties and several hundred hectares of fertile land. The annual real estate income is enough for the family to live in a wealthy state.But Lu Ming didn't want to live this kind of life. He wanted to build his own sky from nothing.

What he admires most is the Pinkerton Detective Agency in the United States. In his opinion, it is as incredible as the Empire State Building in New York. One person who can create such a detective kingdom is the richest person.

He wanted to imitate the founder of Pinkerton Detective Agency and create his own magical world with wisdom and hard work.

After Yuan Mingzhu fled, the two families were in chaos, with people coming and going, making a lot of noise.

Lu Ming took advantage of the panic and took the opportunity to slip away. He didn't bring anything, but a leather bag that he never left with him. There were pens and paper in it, so that he could write down his thoughts when he had a sudden inspiration. , of course, there are a lot of banknotes in the middle of the purse, and there are some Guangyang.

Like a fish slipping through the net and a bird frightened all the way, he specially chose a path that he would not usually take, stumbled and ran to the shore, and found the boat he was on when he came.

Speaking of which, this boat owner is also related to their Lu family, but the relationship is too far away, and they don't usually go around much, but Lu Ming is a nostalgic person, as long as he uses a boat, he will be the first to find this one.

"Master Lu, you are indeed here." A woman in her 30s walked out of the cabin, looked at Lu Ming and said with a smile.

"Sister-in-law Qiaoshou, how did you know I would come?" Lu Ming grinned.

"Of course, but it's not me who knows, but someone knows." Qiaoshousao covered her mouth and smiled.

"Stupid, why did you come here? Don't you know I'm waiting for you?" At this moment, a loud voice with strong dissatisfaction sounded in the cabin. This voice is so familiar.During the conversation, the curtain of the cabin was lifted, and a person came out and stared at him.

Lu Ming was stunned immediately, who is this not his fiancée Yuan Mingzhu who escaped from marriage?

Why is she here?

Has she been hiding here?The members of Yuan's family searched almost all of Huzhou.

What else is she saying?

She said she had been waiting for him and knew he would escape too?

Lu Ming's whole body was a little unwell, messing around in the wind like a weed.

Is this marriage considered an escape, or is she a victim of the urn?Lu Ming stared at the heroic and lively beauty in front of him, he was a little confused, he didn't know whether it would be worthwhile to escape from marriage, or it would be more profitable to be the turtle in the urn.
