Chapter 1677: Qiao Yiyi (7)

The layout of the Lu family residence flashed through her mind.

In the last half a year, she had done nothing but familiarized herself with the surroundings. She now knew the Lu family home like the back of her own hand.

Lu Nanze had thought that his home was perfectly secured, but the fact was there were gaps.

On the eastern end there was a CCTV blindspot and coincidentally, in that spot there was a hiding space big enough for a child only.

It also happened that the martial arts that she practiced kept her body thin and petite, which meant that she could easily fit into and exit this spot.

If they discovered her identity, she could escape from there.

At this thought, Qiao Yiyi finally relaxed.

She continued to observe the situation downstairs.

It was evident that Lu Nanze was on rather good terms with Liang Liang since they spoke to each other informally, almost rudely. They were both friends, but also enemies.

Lu Nanze said to Liang Liang quite candidly, “What has Traceless got to do with me?”

Liang Liang inquired, “I heard that Traceless paid your villa a visit last night.”

Lu Nanze nodded immediately and said, “You get your news quickly!”

Liang Liang smiled and said, “Not that we have a choice. We’ve been trying to track her down for three whole years. Of course we’re quick about these things”

Lu Nanze laughed. “So you think I have some kind of connection with Traceless?”

“Not really. It’s just that when Traceless appears, she steals something. So we’re here to see if we can find some clues about who sent her. If we manage to find this person, we should be able to also get some information on Traceless’ whereabouts.”

Lu Nanze raised an eyebrow.

At first, he wasn’t at all keen to admit that something had been stolen from him because it was simply embarrassing. But he seemed to realize something and smiled at once, saying, “Oh, I had a bracelet stolen from me.”

“Bracelet? What’s its value?

Liang Liang took out his notepad.

He was in his uniform. With his head lowered, his side profile carried firm determination. Because he spent a lot of time working outdoors, his skin had a golden tan to it, making him look even more masculine.

Staring at him from upstairs, Qiao Yiyi narrowed her eyes.

She lowered her gaze as her heart agitated.

Biting her lip, she tried to suppress the faint stirrings in her heart and carefully listen to what they were saying.

Lu Nanze laughed in an exceptionally odd manner when he heard this question. He said, “The market value of that bracelet is a thousand?”

Liang Liang’s hand stopped writing as he looked up at Lu Nanze.

The female police officer next to Liang Liang said immediately, “Mr. Lu, I don’t think your joke is funny.”

Although the lady was in her police uniform, she spoke softly enough to melt a man’s heart.

But when Qiao Yiyi heard her, she snorted frostily.

As she stared at the lady downstairs with clenched fists, an inexplicable pain welled up within.

Lu Nanze stayed still and remarked, “Police Officer Bai, what has my conversation with Police Officer Liang got to do with you? Also, I never lie. You can take it or leave it.”

Lu Nanze had a temper. Of course he took offence at her remark.

Liang Liang intervened quickly, “Bai Anan, don’t speak nonsense.”

Then he looked at Lu Nanze and said with a frown, “Why would someone pay 10 000 in exchange for a bracelet worth a thousand? Do you actually know who hired Traceless then?”
