After Li Yan returned to the villa, he did not rush to have dinner. Instead, he went to check on the condition of the two children. After making sure that they were fine, he went straight to the door of the guest room.
Just as I was about to open the door and go in, I was stunned.
Then, he knocked on the door with the back of his hand, but there was no response in the room. After waiting for a few seconds, there was still no response. He went downstairs again and asked the housekeeper Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, have you seen Joanna?"
?"
"No, are you looking for her?" Aunt Li was startled for a moment, suddenly remembered something, and replied, "Oh, by the way, I remember that after the incident between the young lady and Master Yichen just now, she also went with her, and she hasn't come back yet.
.”
"Did she follow too?" Li Yan frowned slightly, clearly not seeing her at first.
Aunt Li knew that Li Yan had just come back, so she asked, "Sir, are Master Gu and the young lady feeling better? Is it okay?"
"Well, it's better. It's nothing serious."
"Huh...that's great." Aunt Li breathed a sigh of relief, "Do you want to have dinner now?"
Li Yan nodded slightly, raised his eyes and asked, "By the way, where are Mi Ruo and Mrs. Wen?"
"They haven't eaten yet, I'm going to ask them to come down for dinner now."
"Okay, let's go."
Li Yan sat on the sofa and thought of what Aunt Li said just now. If Joanna was not in the villa and she was not seen in the other courtyard, then where was she now?
Just as he was thinking about it, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and pressed the answer button, "A Biao, it's me. Have you found it?"
"President, I haven't found anything suspicious for the time being. I can't determine that it was her fault. However, according to the measurement index, some of the soil has dried and is not freshly fallen. So from this point of view, it can be judged that the entrance of the cave is
It was definitely not chiseled out in a day and a night, and this technique...at first glance, it looks like it was done by an amateur."
"okay, I get it."
After hanging up the phone, a stern look flashed across Li Yan's eyes. If the person to be suspected was not Joanna, then who could it be?! Or, it was just Joanna's deception, imitating the techniques of an outsider to carve out a
Cave? So what is her purpose?
However, this cannot be justified. If it was Joanna who did it, it would be impossible for her to use such a childish and inferior method according to her personality...
Suddenly, he stood up and walked to the large floor-to-ceiling window, raised his head and looked in the direction of the other courtyard. He couldn't see the slightest outline of that place in the dark night, but he could faintly see a faint light flickering in the darkness.
——
Two hours ago.
Joanna followed Mi Ruo and Wen Wan to the other courtyard, quietly hiding in the distance and observing everything that happened before. After they and Li Yan and A Biao left, she took out the miniature telescope from her pocket.
Look towards the second floor window.
The woman who appeared in the camera looked very strange, with a sickly look on her face and an extremely skinny appearance, but the most terrifying thing was not her image. What was truly terrifying was the hatred in her eyes.
Her gaze kept staring at a place in the distance. Joanna followed her gaze and looked far away. It turned out that that was Li Yan's main villa...
She took out her mobile phone and checked the information sent to her by William, but there was no message from this woman in it.
Who is she? Why does she live in this villa? What grudges does she have with Li Yan and Mi Ruo? Why is she looking in the direction of the villa with that look?
I always feel that there are many mysteries in this woman.
Joanna put the telescope in front of her eyes again, gently pressed a button, and there was a soft pop, and the woman's figure was stored in the memory card in the telescope.
It turns out that the thing in her hand is not just an ordinary telescope, but a camera with telephoto function! It can also connect to the 3G network and quickly send the photos back to the Demon-Conquering City.
She picked up the phone and dialed a number, "Hi, William, it's me."
"Anna, are you doing things too slowly? Compared to previous tasks, you really don't pay enough attention. Do you need me to work harder for you?" William's mocking sound came from the other end.
In Joanna's ears, it was bone-chilling.
Joanna did not answer his words and said, "You should have received the photo just now, right? Check that woman for me. I want to know her relationship with Li Yan."
"Hahaha," William smiled coldly, "Do you still have the heart to investigate Li Yan's lover? A wife's jealousy is not enough for you, but you also have a lover. Anna, can you handle it?"
"It's up to you whether to check it or not! I just think this woman is valuable!" Anna gritted her teeth and ignored his ridicule, and said, "When do you plan to come to Nancheng?"
"Anna, I won't tell you. Do you think I don't know what you are thinking? Hurry up and do everything you need to do for me. As long as you successfully complete this mission, I will definitely fulfill my promise.
.”
Fulfill the promise? Humph! Only a ghost can believe it!
Joanna knew very well that William's words were untrustworthy, just like he didn't trust her, otherwise he wouldn't have poisoned her with the evil spirit.
"William, stop saying those high-sounding words. Find that woman's information quickly and get back to me this morning. Hang up now!"
With a snap, she said no more, turned around and left quietly.
Joanna deliberately chose to return to the villa late at night. After all the servants in Li Yan's family were asleep, she quietly went to the entrance of the cave where Cindy and Gu Yichen passed through to investigate.
She didn't get too close. Judging from the footprints left everywhere, someone had already come here to check. And judging from the size of the shoe prints, they should have been left by two men.
Joanna frowned, took out a few pieces of soft silk from her pocket, wrapped them under the soles of her shoes, and then approached cautiously.
She didn't expect the cave entrance to be so hidden, and the distance between the other courtyard and the main villa was closer than she imagined.
A closer look revealed that the hole was only half-drilled. It was definitely not the work of a child. Judging from the size and shape of the hole, it should have been drilled here from another courtyard. The man's technique was very clumsy.
, should be an adult layman, and a woman!
woman……
Joanna frowned, thinking of the woman on the second floor she saw outside the courtyard just now...could it be that woman who chiseled it? But what was her purpose?
While she was thinking to herself, she suddenly shivered - someone was approaching from behind! With her instinct as a killer, she could feel that that person was very dangerous!
Joanna quietly moved her hands under her trouser legs, grasped the two daggers hidden in her leather boots, and suddenly threw them behind her!
Unexpectedly, the visitor seemed to have anticipated her move, and he dodged the two sharp knives she threw at the same time with one swift move.
The other party was extremely fast. After dodging the dagger, he quickly came to her and strangled her neck fiercely!
