When Gong Tianhao arrived at the police station, he was already one step too late.

“When we were transporting the body back, we encountered a car accident, and the body was thrown out. When we carried the body back to the car, we found a hole in her head,” said the captain. He pointed to the left temple of Bai Shanshan’s head.

Gong Tianhao looked over and saw a small hole about one centimeter deep. It wasn’t deep. Gong Tianhao knew that something had been dug out of that spot.

Gong Tianhao asked coldly, “Then, did you see anyone approach the body?”

The captain thought for a moment and said with certainty, “Yes, there was a beggar.”

Gong Tianhao frowned, “A beggar?”

“Yes!” The captain said, “He was dirty from head to toe. His hair was disheveled, and his face couldn’t be seen clearly. He was carrying a dirty woven bag.” Then, the captain asked curiously, “Mr. Gong, is there a problem with this beggar?”

Gong Tianhao did not hide anything and said, “Yes, there is. Because the hole in her head was dug out by that beggar.”

The captain, “…” this was the first time he had heard of someone digging a hole in a dead person’s head.

Gong Tianhao did not want to explain any further. He only instructed, “Alright, take the body back and do a thorough autopsy first. Then, inform the family of the deceased.”

With that, he left.

The captain, “…” Why was Mr. Gong here? Was it just to remind us of that?

The captain was puzzled. In any case, he was certain that the deceased was not a normal person, or else, Mr. Gong wouldn’t have come to see her so often.

Gong Tianhao got into the car and called his subordinate. “Send someone to keep a close eye on her. This time, there mustn’t be any mistakes.”

But, Bai Shanshan was already dead, and the things on her body had been retrieved. So, her only remaining value was…

Gong Tianhao held the steering wheel, and his eyes were filled with anger. ‘The mastermind better keeps their identity away from me. Otherwise, there’ll be hell to pay!’

At a corner of an alley, a seemingly ordinary passerby looked at Gong Tianhao driving away and immediately called to report, “Master, Gong Tianhao has already left. Yes, understood, your subordinate will do it immediately!”

…

“I was still a step too late!” Gong Tianhao said.

Old Master Gong glanced at him and said coldly and sarcastically, “Gong Tianhao, your brain has been injured after sleeping for two years.”

Gong Tianhao, “…” That was not wrong.

However, Gong Tianhao didn’t dare to refute him.

Xiao Lingyu said, “Grandfather, we didn’t expect that the person behind Bai Shanshan would be so cunning as to plant a bug on her head!” None of them expected that. This was too cruel and crazy!

Old Master Gong knew that this was the case, but he still said stubbornly, “No, the brat is just too stupid.”

Xiao Lingyu, “…”

Gong Tianhao, “…”

Gong Tianhao furrowed his brows and said, “Bai Shanshan is dead. But it doesn’t mean that her value is fully exhausted.”

Old Master Gong immediately said in surprise, “You mean…”

“That’s right!” Gong Tianhao said, “Bai Shanshan is a member of the Bai family and has a connection with us. The culprit will definitely use that to create a storm.” At this point, Gong Tianhao thought for a moment and said, “Grandfather, I’m afraid I have to return to the capital immediately. I need to be prepared.”

“Tianhao, I’ll go with you!” Xiao Lingyu said.

“No!” Old Master Gong immediately said, “Yu ‘Er, we don’t know anything about the person in the dark. We haven’t even found out the identity of your kidnappers. It’s too dangerous for you to go back to the capital. It’s better for Hao ‘Er to do his investigation first.”

Old Master Gong knew Xiao Lingyu was smart, but it was hard for her to deal with ambushes from the dark.

Gong Tianhao thought for a moment and said, “Yu ‘Er, the person behind Bai Shanshan knows about my relationship with you. With Bai Shanshan’s death, I reckon they will target not only the capital but also Taoyuan Village. Therefore, you shouldn’t leave the village for the time being.” Then, he paused before continuing, “Besides, our grandfather and our son are still in Taoyuan Village. Will you feel at ease leaving them here? So Yu ‘Er, I need to stay to help me take care of grandfather and Tong Tong.”

Xiao Lingyu was stunned when she heard this. Then, she nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you this time!”

That’s right. Her family was in Taoyuan Village. She needed to stay and take good care of them.

Gong Tianhao left soon. He had someone fly a helicopter to pick him up.

…

At the Bai family’s villa, the butler of the Bai family went to open the mailbox as usual and brought the newspapers and letters into the house.

He opened the mailbox and saw that other than the usual newspapers, there was also a letter with a blank cover.

At first, he thought that it was some kid’s prank. Just as he was about to throw it away, he opened the envelope out of curiosity.

However, when he saw the contents of the letter, his pupils constricted. He was shocked and terrified.

He didn’t care about the newspaper in the mailbox. He directly took the letter and ran and shouted in panic, “Master, this is bad!”

The Master and Madam of the Bai family saw the butler, who had lost his composure and said with slight dissatisfaction, “Butler, why are you cursing me so early in the morning?”

Madam Bai also said with displeasure, “Butler, it’s not proper to make such a big fuss this early in the morning. You look so flustered. Is there something wrong?”

The Butler said with a very anxious expression, “Master, Madam, there’s news about the third miss.”

When Master Bai and Madam Bai heard this, their eyes lit up, and their faces lit up with joy. “There’s news about Shanshan? What is it?”

At this point, Madam Bai reprimanded him, “Butler, what’s wrong with you? This is good news, but you made it sound like bad news. Are you getting old? Perhaps you should retire already.”

“No… No.” The Butler became more and more nervous. He continued, “Master, Madam, there’s news about the third miss, but the news is that the third miss is dead now!”

“What?” The Master and Madam immediately sat up from the sofa. When they heard the news, they were very shocked.

“Butler, do you… Do you want to lose your job? How dare you make up the news that the third miss is dead?” Madam Bai pointed at the butler and angrily shouted, “Guards, drag this man out!”

The butler panicked and explained, “Madam, this… This isn’t what I said. It’s… It’s what this letter says!” He raised the letter and handed it to Master Bai.

Master Bai took the letter in confusion, “What letter?”

When he saw the contents of the letter, his pupils constricted, and his face was filled with disbelief as he said loudly, “Impossible, this is simply impossible!”

“Master, what exactly is written on this letter?” Madam Bai also took the letter from her husband’s hand in puzzlement. When she saw the contents of the letter, her pupils violently contracted, and her expression changed drastically. She simply could not believe it, and she screamed loudly, “Impossible, this is simply impossible. How could my Shan ‘Er be dead? Someone must have lied to me!”

Then, her sharp eyes shot directly at the butler. Her eyes were filled with malice and anger as she shouted, “Butler, was it you? Is this a lie you made up to take revenge on me for the humiliation I usually give you? If you don’t find my Shan ‘Er, you’ll die!”

The butler immediately cried out, “Madam, this is not me. I won’t dare to joke about third miss’ safety.”

Master Bai said, “We need to locate this address. We have to make sure that Shanshan…”
