Chapter 22: Strange Occurrence
Ou Yang Yan heard "Two beautiful ladies are waiting for you", and for some reason, she felt a lump in her throat. She gazed at Xie Fei Yu with a hint of resentment in her eyes: "You've made another appointment?"
"Fatty, what's going on?" Xie Feiyu looked at Ouyang Yan's resentful eyes and felt a pang of heartache, turning to ask Yuan Hao.
"No way, boss. How could I make an appointment without your approval?" Fatso also looked puzzled.
"Miss, maybe you're mistaken. There are only three of us and we didn't make any other appointments." Xie Feiyu turned to the receptionist and said, "We want a private room."
"That's right, the two ladies upstairs said it clearly, they asked that fighting gentleman to go up, aren't there three of them?" The receptionist replied affirmatively.
"What do those two girls look like?" asked Yuan Hao.
"A short hair and a long hair are both beautiful, comparable to this young lady." The receptionist pointed to Ouyang Yan on one side.
Ouyang Yan's face turned red when she heard this, but her heart was delighted. Which woman doesn't hope that others will praise her for being beautiful?
Xie Feiyu and Yuan Hao exchanged a glance, knowing that neither of them had any leads either. It seemed they could only go up and take a look.
Went up to the second floor, found the No. 5 private room facing the street, the receptionist knocked on the door and waited for a response from inside before making a "please" gesture to Xie Fei Yu and the others, then went down.
Xie Feiyu looked puzzled into the private room, only to see two girls sitting in front of him. One had short hair and wore a casual T-shirt and jeans, but couldn't hide her elegant and refined demeanor. Her bright eyes sparkled like autumn water, and Xie Feiyu remembered them clearly - they belonged to Shangguan Tong, the police captain who drove a patrol car faster than a sports car. The other girl had long hair that reached her shoulders and wore a professional suit, but Xie Feiyu didn't recognize her at all.
"Hurry up and walk in the wrong direction." Xie Feiyu was startled and quickly covered the door and retreated.
"Xie Feiyu, everyone's here, what are you waiting for, not coming in?" Shangguan Tong said with a smile, but it made people feel an intangible sense of majesty, making them dare not refuse.
"Haha, so it's Captain Shang after all? I thought I walked into the wrong room." Xie Feiyu chuckled and pushed open the door to enter the room.
"Not bad, huh?" Upper Official Tong swept a glance over Xie Feiyu and the others, but his gaze finally settled on Ouyang Yan.
"That's right, my brother and I have been through a hundred battles, this skill is the real deal, forged in blood and fire." Yuan Hao proudly patted his chest. "Yu Ge, did you get sand in your eyes? Why are you blinking non-stop?"
"Yuan Hao, this is Shangguan Tong, the captain of the Municipal Public Security Bureau." Xie Feiyu introduced with a bitter expression, otherwise who knows what even more frightening things he might reveal.
"Public Security Bureau? Captain Shang?" Yuan Hao was stunned.
"Who is this little fatty? Come and tell me again how you really practiced to get that skill, okay?" Shangguan Tong's two bright and watery eyes stared at Yuan Hao, but made Yuan Hao sweat.
"Captain Shang, I was just...just bragging earlier. We didn't actually fight at all. We're good students, the kind who usually get bullied by others and are even afraid to tell the teachers." Yuan Hao said with a flattering smile.
"Your girlfriend isn't introducing herself, Xie Feiyu?" Shangguan Tong ignored Yuan Hao and fixed his eyes on Ouyang Yan, seemingly very interested in her.
"This is our class monitor, Ouyang Yan, the great beauty. She's not my girlfriend, don't get it wrong, Captain Shangguan. Wait till she gets angry." Xie Feiyu saw that Shangguan Tong had stopped pestering him about the fight and even spoke more naturally now.
"Fei Yu, sit here." Ouyang Yan gently helped Xie Fei Yu pull out a stool and let him sit down, then sat down on another stool beside him, even pulling the stool closer to Xie Fei Yu, making his heart "thud thud" wildly.
"You also say it's not a girlfriend, if it's not a girlfriend, why be so gentle with you? Be careful someone gets hurt." Shangguan Tong said with a smile.
Xie Feiyu didn't know how to respond, and looked at Ouyang Yan with the hope that she would come out and clear things up herself. But who knew that Ouyang Yan was slightly lowering her head at this time, with a shy expression on her face, occasionally glancing at Shangguan Tong, but had no intention of clearing things up for herself.
"Was she trying to save my face?" Xie Feiyu thought to himself, and didn't clarify it anymore, as if he had tacitly agreed.
"Captain Shang, what a coincidence! You're here too?" Xie Feiyu quickly changed the subject.
"It's not a coincidence, I came looking for you on purpose today." Shangguan Tong's words shocked him, and Xie Feiyu's heart became uneasy again. Being found by the police couldn't be a good thing, could it?
"It's alright, don't worry about it anymore. I'm not here to cause you trouble. Besides, I just helped you guys out earlier, or else Uncle Li wouldn't have let you off so easily?" said Shangguan Tong with a smile.
"Uncle Li? Who's that?"
"Wasn't it just now that the traffic police captain had a good attitude towards you?"
Xie Feiyu suddenly remembered that when he just got off the car, the captain received a call. It seemed that this was Shangguan Tong's call to plead for mercy.
"Thank you, Captain Shang, thank you so much."
"It's nothing, I understand the whole thing clearly. That kid from Shi Jia is too reckless, and you've helped everyone vent their anger. However, in the future, you'd better be more careful, that kid also holds grudges." Shang Guan Tong said with a faint smile.
"I don't provoke trouble, but I'm not afraid of it either. If he dares to come, I'll take him on." Xie Feiyu said. "Captain Shangguan, please tell me what brought you here today, otherwise I really won't dare sit down again."
"Okay, so it's about that case yesterday afternoon. Wang Bin was adamant that a paranormal event occurred on the computer, suddenly displaying his profile picture and personal information, which led to his arrest. This isn't unusual, people can get anxious and experience hallucinations when they're tense. But my old classmate is really interested in these kinds of paranormal events, so she insisted I bring her here to investigate. I called Teacher Lan this morning, but she was busy with a meeting and didn't have time for us, and you were taking an exam, so we just ended up eating here and waiting until this afternoon. Didn't expect to actually run into you." Xiang Tong took a sip of the tea on the table after finishing her explanation.
"Hello, I'm Gu Xiaoyue, the editor of Urban Legends Magazine. You must be Xie Feiyu, right? Can you tell me in detail about what happened yesterday afternoon when you were in the office? Especially the parts that seemed unusual to you?" The long-haired woman sitting next to him smiled, her eyes gleaming like black grapes under her straight eyebrows, shining with a mysterious light, like a deep pool that made people feel unfathomable.
"Feather, what exactly happened in the office yesterday? Come on, tell me, I want to hear it too?" Ouyang Yan leaned towards Xie Fei Yu with a hint of intention.
Fei Yu, this name sounds really good when said by the beautiful woman! Xie Fei Yu secretly felt pleased in his heart. Knowing that he couldn't make excuses anymore, yesterday's incident was indeed a bit overboard, with so many people watching, if he just said he didn't see it, it would only make him look more guilty. After thinking this through, Xie Fei Yu pretended to carefully recall the events of yesterday afternoon and selectively recounted them in detail, except for one crucial point that he had to insist on: at first, he was just tired from standing and wanted to take a break, so he did the thing with the computer case. As for why the noise and image appeared after hitting the computer case, he claimed he didn't know.
After hearing Xie Feiyu's story, Yuan Hao and Ouyang Yan both widened their eyes and stared at him. They only knew that there was a theft of the information library in the office yesterday, but they didn't know that there was such an interesting story inside. Their gaze towards Xie Feiyu naturally became different. No wonder Teacher Lan's attitude towards him was especially good today?
"Gu Xiao Yue paused for a moment and asked Xie Fei Yu: "Xie Fei Yu, have you noticed anything unusual about yourself lately?"
