Chapter 120: She’s The Woman From Five Years Ago, How Could She Be So Stunningly Beautiful! (VI)

“Third Elder Brother, she already knows that someone’s trying to make her stay. She’s also a pretty good criminal psychologist.” As Fifth Young Master Shen was reminded of the enigmatic smile that appeared on her face seconds before the elevator door shut, he realized the need to call Third Elder Brother again. That curious smile seemed to reveal she had discovered something or was planning a scheme.

“Okay,” Ye Lanchen replied softly while he focused his gaze on the number displayed on the elevator. He narrowed his eyes skeptically as the elevator descended from the sixth floor and made a stop on the fifth floor.

“The elevator is stopping on the fifth floor. Is she making an exit from there? Or is she trying to create a smokescreen?” Fifth Young Master Shen who was currently on the phone with Ye Lanchen noticed it too. “Third Elder Brother, I think that she’s luring you to come upstairs intentionally.”

Fifth Young Master Shen reckoned this possibility was more probable.

However, she definitely underestimated Third Elder Brother if she thought the latter would fall into the trap so easily. There was only one exit in the entire Public Security Bureau which meant she would still have to leave through the main exit no matter which floor she left from the elevator. The best bet was to ambush her at the main exit of the first floor.

The elevator did not linger on the fifth floor for too long, albeit it was slightly longer than the time needed for a normal person to enter or leave the elevator. Approximately thirty seconds later, the elevator began to move again.

Then, it made a stop on the fourth floor.

“It seems like she didn’t leave from the fifth floor, but of course, someone else might also be the one making the call.” Fifth Young Master Shen analyzed immediately based on his observation yet his inference sounded rather pointless.

“Order your staff to inspect the security camera of each floor.” Ye Lanchen’s narrowed eyes were filled with a dangerous intent while simultaneously seeming to be smiling too. The emotions that chased over his features in quick succession was a distressing sight to watch.

“I’m just about to do so.” The idea also flashed across Fifth Young Master Shen’s mind. The security room was only next to him. He was going to take a look even if Ye Lanchen had not instructed him to do so.

Upon entering the security room, nothing on the screen seemed exceptionally peculiar.

On closer inspection, however, Fifth Young Master Shen detected something strange. He fast-forwarded the recordings and realized they were all still images. Before Fifth Young Master Shen could investigate further, the screens blacked out almost immediately.

He was extremely frustrated by the perfect timing. If he came a little earlier, he could have discovered something useful; if he came a little later, at least he would not be as exasperated as he was now.

Fifth Young Master Shen felt like punching someone at that instant.

“Third Elder Brother, the security cameras have been hacked. I can’t detect anything useful.” Fifth Young Master Shen’s voice was laced with amazement. He definitely underestimated that woman because the latter obviously came prepared.

No wonder Big Brother recommended her!

Ye Lanchen twitched his lips into a smile at the information. She utilized the exact same method five years ago. This only strengthened his speculation that she was the woman from five years ago.

He would bet his life on it.

Ye Lanchen let her escape through his grasp five years ago but he would never make the same mistake again today, no matter what.

Right at this moment, the elevator made a stop on the third floor.

“Third Elder Brother, what’s she doing stopping on each floor? What is she trying to do?” Fifth Young Master Shen was completely baffled. “Is this some sort of psychological warfare?”

Fifth Young Master Shen had to admit that her tactics were working.

He had no idea what Third Elder Brother regarded the situation but he, on the other hand, was at a complete loss of what to do.

Her tactics to stop the elevator at each floor was definitely a test to challenge the others’ patience. Perhaps her main objective was to lure Third Elder Brother to come upstairs using the other elevator because that would provide her ample time to leave through the main exit on the first floor.

However, his Third Elder Brother was not as gullible as she thought. She would not succeed if that was truly her plan.

Another possibility suddenly flashed across Fifth Young Master Shen’s mind. “Third Elder Brother, there’s a chance she could leave through the windows on the second floor.”

He never thought about that because they were on the higher floors earlier. However, she could unquestionably leave through the windows from the second floor or even from the third floor.
