James was sitting on the chair in the study, and his eyes were still staring at the seat where Adele had just sat. His mouth tightened into a thin line, and his eyes were deep and gloomy. He was not in a good mood.
It was not until his cell phone rang that he came to sense.
He pinched the place between his eyebrows which was a little painful because he had knitted his eyebrows so tightly, and then picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Lu!" Samuel said in a serious tone, "Well..."
"How about the thing I asked you to investigate? Do you find any clues?"
"I found something indeed..." Samuel coughed lightly and said, "I've transferred the surveillance videos in the South Lake, but the surveillance camera on the street you mentioned was damaged."
"Okay." James answered softly, "Anything else?"
"What's more, the registration number of the car is fake. The real owner of the registration number is a van, not the sports car you mentioned. The sports car was smuggled, and it had been transferred by several people."
Hearing this, James stopped rubbing his eyebrows and his heart sank. After a few seconds, he said, "Have you checked the surveillance video of the road where the car passed?"
"Yes. The car finally went to the mountain in the western suburbs. There is no surveillance camera there, so I still don't know the specific location of the car."
Samuel said these words very cautiously. He was afraid that James would be unhappy and thought that he didn't do his best. But James only gave him an hour. Although he didn't find any very useful information, he had tried his best...
Alas!
He had done his best, but the person was too cunning!
As a matter of fact, James was really not happy indeed, and his angry even overflowed, but he was not angry with Samuel.
But he also knew that this was not the time to lose his temper. He narrowed his eyes and said with his face full of malice, "Although I don't know what the purpose of that person or the person behind him is, we can't let our guard down at present."
He said these words with reasons.
Although the man wore a mask and a pair of sunglasses, he was obviously a young man. He did this was not just for fun. Moreover, even if he wanted to play a trick, he couldn't use a smuggled car and a fake registration number. Otherwise, how could he be so arrogant?
Therefore, he was even more convinced of what he had thought before. His memory had always been good, but he thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember where he had seen that man. Since the man was so young and had resentment against him, he must have a man who supported him on his back.
But... he still did not know the reason why the man did that. Was it because of money or something else?
"I see, Mr. Lu. I'll continue to investigate it, and I'll definitely give you a satisfactory reply." Samuel was relieved, and he promised James very confidently.
"Okay." James lit up a cigarette for himself irritably, "By the way, if there is really no clue, investigate the owners of the car one by one." The enemy hiding in the dark had to be solved as soon as possible.
"Alright."
After hanging up the phone, James sneered, but he couldn't hold back his anger and swept a basin of jade ornaments on the table to the ground.
Crack!
