Chapter 1374: Absolute Stupidity

After finishing up on this section of the contents, Huo Shaoheng finally saw a few text messages from the invalid number and a screenshot of a shared location.

Luo Jialan was, as expected, still in contact with the owner of the invalid number.

Furthermore, the owner of the invalid number was Yamaguchi Aiko.

She really did not die.

Huo Shaoheng had never believed that Yamaguchi Aiko was dead. Whether she was said to have died in the Caribbean Sea or in Europe, he had never believed it.

This was because the news of her death had always been spread by word of mouth. Even if someone had witnessed her “death” with their own eyes, no one had personally seen her carcass, nor had anyone attended her funeral.

Huo Shaoheng was a professional in this field and thus knew that there were many ways one could exploit their own “deaths” to escape from a sticky situation.

This was normal for field staff.

However, the fact that Yamaguchi Aiko was related to the invalid number was very surprising.

Huo Shaoheng frowned as he looked at the invalid number displayed on the computer. The long text messages from Luo Jialan were all sent to Yamaguchi Aiko.

Looking at the screenshot of the shared location, Huo Shaoheng’s eagle-like eyes instantly narrowed.

This location looked too familiar.

Wasn’t this the location of the Cape of Good Hope that they had previously circled ?!

Zhao Liangze had been stationed there for a year to search the nearby waters.

However, that region in the sea was too big. Even after a year, they still didn’t manage to find anything much.

This time, they hoped that they could shrink their search circle.

Huo Shaoheng sent Zhao Liangze the latitude and longitude shown on the screenshot of the shared location. At the same time, he ordered him, “Search this area immediately. Report any findings immediately!”

Right after that, he gave an order to the staff of the special operations forces, “There is now evidence that Yamaguchi Aiko is not dead. Luo Jialan is involved with Yamaguchi Aiko. Yamaguchi Aiko is a foreign spy wanted by our country. She had once collected intelligence in our country, bribed officials, and cooperated with our former prime minister Dou Yongsheng to interfere with our country’s election.”

“Luo Jialan is suspected of colluding with and sheltering foreign spies. Go to the court and apply for a search warrant and arrest warrant immediately. Search Luo Jialan’s residence and all of her electronic network equipment. Do It quickly!”

A group of extremely efficient special operations forces’ staff received the search warrant and arrest warrant within 15 minutes and rushed towards Luo Jialan’s West Mountain Villa.

At 8:30 on an early June morning, the West Mountain Villa area was bathed in the warm morning sunlight.

The Imperial City District was already relatively hot, but the west mountain area was surrounded by high mountains, dense forests, and fresh air, and so the temperature here was about 10 degrees lower than that of the city district.

The weather here was pleasant. It was neither too hot nor too cold.

Luo Jialan was still sleeping soundly in her bed.

She had spent 48 hours in the detention center and was exhausted. She really did not want to live that kind of life anymore.

Now that she had a guaranteed victory, it all depended on how Gu Nianzhi reacted, so she slept soundly.

The doorbell of the West Mountain Villa Rang, and one of Luo Jialan’s helpers opened the door.

Looking at the group of workers in black uniforms at the door, she was so scared that she took a few steps back and asked in a trembling voice, “Who… Who are you? What do you want?”

The leader of the task force of the special operations forces amicably showed the arrest warrant and the search warrant, saying, “Excuse me, are you Luo Jialan? The arrest warrant and the search warrant are issued by the court here. Please don’t obstruct us from carrying out our official duties.”

“I, I, I, I… I’m not Miss Luo. I’m just a helper!” The helper hurriedly stepped aside. “Please come in!”

The special operations forces staff swarmed in and swiftly took control of the entire villa.

All the helpers in the villa were led to an empty room to be identified.

A few female staff finally went to Luo Jialan’s bedroom and knocked on the door.

No one answered.

They looked at each other, took out their guns, fired a few shots at the fingerprint lock, and broke the lock.

Then, they stretched out their long legs and kicked open Luo Jialan’s bedroom door!

The loud noise woke Luo Jialan up.

She rubbed her eyes and sat up from the bed, saying impatiently, “What are you doing? Are you rioting?!”

She thought they were her helpers.

“Luo Jialan? This is the court’s arrest warrant and search warrant. Please come back with us to assist in our investigation.”

A female staff member also showed her the court’s arrest warrant and search warrant.

Luo Jialan’s pupils suddenly constricted. She wrapped herself with her blanket and shouted, “I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it! Are you the police? You’re deliberately framing me!”

“Who would have the time to frame you? Do you think you’re the President of the United States?” a female staff member sneered. “Don’t think too highly of yourself. You’re just a small fry who was pushed to the frontline. Take her away!”

A few female staff members rushed up and quickly dragged Luo Jialan out of the blanket. They took off her pyjamas, changed her clothes, and took her downstairs with her hair dishevelled.

Luo Jialan looked on in fear as she watched other people take control over her home. She glared at the special operations forces. She was so angry that the roots of her teeth itched.

The leader of the Special Operations task force smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. He spoke slowly, “Ms. Luo Jialan, you can choose to remain silent. You can hire a lawyer. This time, you are suspected of colluding with foreign spies. The maximum detention duration of 48 hours normally required by law will not apply to you this time.”

Luo Jialan said angrily, “Don’t frame me! Since when did I collude with foreign spies?!”

“Yamaguchi Aiko,” the team leader simply replied with a name.

Luo Jialan’s face quickly turned pale and she stuttered, “Yama… Yamaguchi Aiko? I don’t know… I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“Team leader, this is her phone. Get her to unlock it,” a female staff member handed over the phone that she found on Luo Jialan’s bed.

The team leader took it and placed it in front of Luo Jialan. “Unlock it. If you don’t unlock it, our staff will unlock it themselves. When that happens, you will be charged with one more count of obstructing the course of justice.”

Luo Jialan gritted her teeth and turned her head away and sneered, “If you have the ability, unlock it yourself. I won’t unlock it for you.”

At that moment, Huo Shaoheng walked. He stood behind the group of people with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “Unlock it with her fingers. Do you still need me to teach you?”

Hearing Huo Shaoheng’s voice, Luo Jialan raised her head abruptly. She immediately let out an aggrieved expression. “Eldest cousin brother…”

“Don’t call me “eldest cousin brother”. My surname is Huo, and yours is Luo,” Huo Shaoheng walked forward. “You’re also not my uncle’s daughter, so stop pretending.”

Huo Shaoheng’s expression was calm and composed.

However, it was this emotionless expression that made Luo Jialan even angrier.

Did he really not care about her at all?!

How dare he?!

She had loved him for so many years; her secret love for him that thrived in the dark night would blossom fully in her heart at just the thought of it. The pain from this unrequited love…

Luo Jialan’s face contorted. She couldn’t help but want to absolutely piss him off in front of his subordinates by tarnishing his reputation so utterly with a scandal that he could never hope to prove his innocence.

“Huo Shaoheng, don’t forget, 12 years ago…”

Huo Shaoheng interrupted her and said calmly, “Don’t even think about tarnishing my reputation. 12 years ago, your mother, Luo Xinxue, was still alive. The summer I enlisted, your mother took you out on a trip and you weren’t home at all. How could you even think of trying to frame others with your IQ? You’re so stupid.”

The undisguised contempt and humiliation in his tone was like a long whip that lashed her till all her skin was entirely shredded.

She let out a low howl, and a buzzing sound came from her brain. She glared at Huo Shaoheng, her lips opened and closed, and the blood vessels in her brain swelled rapidly. For a moment, her brain suffered from a lack of blood supply, and she blacked-out. She collapsed on the ground with a plop.

She fainted from anger at Huo Shaoheng’s words.
