Chapter 664: Chapter 662: The Old Path (22)_1 Chapter 664: Chapter 662: The Old Path (22)_1 The image in the surveillance seemed stuck for a few seconds.

Lei stood motionless, staring intently at Mrs. Mary.

Opposite him, Mrs. Mary seemed a bit frightened by his reaction.

Yet, a certain thing called responsibility still made her stand her ground without backing down, continuing to glare back, hoping the young man would realize his mistake.

Click!

Fu Qian heard the sound of Chief Jones reaching for his gun.

Clearly, even though he could use his wife as a way to test Lei, he didn’t want her to be in danger.

Meanwhile, it was evident that he had no particular affection for Lei and seemed indifferent to the idea of finishing him off directly.

Decisive!

Now that’s more like someone who protects the community.

Fu Qian praised in his mind, and at this moment, the image on the monitor finally moved again.

Lei let out a long breath, then his gaze casually swept in the direction of the surveillance.

“Aunt, I know you care about me, and it’s for this reason I really don’t want to worry you,”

“First of all, please believe me, I would never do such foolish things.”

As he spoke to the end, it sounded as if he had made a certain decision.

“I had promised to keep a classmate’s secret.”

Letting out a sigh, Lei’s expression hardened.

“I’m not quite sure why Fran and the others would make such a judgment, one possibility I can think of is that they mistook Kateman’s stuff for mine …”

“Really?”

His tone and demeanor still very compelling, Mrs. Mary’s face immediately softened a bit, and she asked with skepticism.

“Of course it’s true.”

“There’s the simplest way to judge. You’ve met Kateman before.”

Lei gave a wry smile and pointed at himself.

“Do you think, between him and me, who looks more like they would have that kind of habit?”

“Well, that’s …”

Mrs. Mary’s brows furrowed slightly, then she nodded subtly.

Clearly, from her prior encounters, Kateman seemed more likely to be the type to skulk around.

“And there’s another thing.”

Seeing that his aunt seemed somewhat convinced, Lei touched his stomach.

“Can we have dinner now? I can already smell the aroma of the fish soup.”

“When you see how well I eat, you’ll know I would never indulge in that sort of thing.”

Uh…

In that moment, Mrs. Mary’s face completely relaxed.

“Who insisted on moving out here!”

Her voice carried a hint of reproach as Mrs. Mary helped Lei open his meal box.

“Eat slowly, just leave the food here.”

Confirming that the meal was still hot, Mrs. Mary handed over the utensils to Lei and, seeing him take the first bite, she left in a much better mood.

“Jones doesn’t know I’ve come out; I better get back quickly, lest he starts looking for me everywhere.”

She didn’t try to persuade Lei to move back in; his stance had been quite firm during their previous exchanges, so she respected her nephew’s wishes.

“Also, with all the strange things happening, you shouldn’t wander around at night.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t stray about,” Lei compliantly assured.

“That’s good.”

Mrs. Mary didn’t linger any longer and left at once.

…

Outside in the car near the motel, Fu Qian noticed that Chief Jones’s movements became stiff.

He probably didn’t really believe that Lei was as pure as a white lotus.

But Lei’s performance just now was indeed impeccable.

The young people these days, why are they all so difficult to handle!

The next moment, Jones even looked up at Fu Qian, and from his gaze, Fu Qian read this message:

It’s not the young people who are difficult, but someone else.

Fu Qian silently answered in his mind.

Lei’s reactions just now were probably best understood by him.

With such a flawless performance, there was no doubt that at this moment, he must be in a superhuman state.

His own plan to frighten had been quite successful.

And Lei’s responses to the series of statements and actions behind him were perfectly handled.

Faced with the fabricated charges against him, his choice was to counter with nonsense, even deliberately choosing Kateman to take the brunt.

Given that both Kateman and Jessica were missing, it was clear that there was no way to verify this in the short term.

Being shocked into a superhuman state, he should have realized right away that Mrs. Mary was under surveillance when she came over to deliver something.

He even guessed the likely positions of the cameras.

…

“Do you want to go in and talk?”

Watching Lei, who was busily eating, on the screen, Fu Qian asked with a smile for Chief Jones’s opinion.

“Is there any point?”

Chief Jones holstered his gun and snorted coldly.

He did not trust Fu Qian much either.

The reason he had followed him here was just to see if Lei would have any special reactions under such accusations.

And at this moment, Lei’s manner, regardless of the truth or falsehood in his words, was clearly set on denying everything to the end.

Unless they were planning to use harsh interrogation, there was no point in going to him.

“If you want to go chat with a classmate, be my guest, I have to head back now.”

He signaled an officer to give the room number to Fu Qian and got out of the car.

What a good family man!

With apparent admiration, Fu Qian got out of the car as well and walked straight into the motel.

Is he really going?

Seeing this scene, Chief Jones’s expression became faintly stiff.

Briefly hesitating whether to follow him or not, he looked back at the officers and surveillance in the car and finally set off towards his home.

Bang bang!

The door was only knocked twice before it was opened from the inside.

“Fu Qian, you came.”

Lei did not seem surprised, then turned with a rather indifferent expression and sat down again.

“Please come in.”

“Sorry, I’m in the middle of dinner.”

“It’s fine, the fish soup smells really good.”

Fu Qian sat down casually next to him, unconcernedly admitting he had moved back into Qiong’s house.

…

Lei’s pace of eating slowed down, and he seemed to have lost some of his appetite.

After a moment of silence, he put down his spoon and frowned as he started accusing.

“Where did you get the information that I’m using special drugs?”

Not bad at all!

In response to the questioning, Fu Qian mentally gave himself a thumbs up.

Given the timely nature of his arrival, Lei almost certainly could conclude that he was under surveillance.

He was undoubtedly very concerned about whether the hidden body had been discovered, but if he directly asked what Fu Qian and Fran had found in the mountains, it would seem rather guilty.

It was much more natural to start by questioning from his own grievances.

And to explain the issue, Fu Qian had to express pretty much the same information.

Indeed, being imprisoned a second time, Lei’s adaption to the superhuman state was much more natural!

Too bad, facing Fu Qian, he was doomed not to get his way.

“It’s possible I was mistaken, maybe it was Kateman’s.”

Fu Qian spouted nonsense, even borrowing Lei’s reasoning.

He didn’t believe that under surveillance, Lei would dare to entangle with him excessively.

“Speaking of Kateman, have you found him?”

“… No, not a trace.”

Staring intently at Fu Qian, Lei quickly chose to give up.

“I never thought something like this would happen, this place feels suffused with an indescribable eeriness.”

The next moment, he changed his tone, looking pensive.

“Who knows, I might disappear without a trace any time now.”

Was this a lament from Laxik?

Fu Qian mused to himself.

“That can’t be! You are an important subject of observation.”

Lei looked up sharply, only to realize what Fu Qian had said, meeting only his mysteriously smiling face.
