Du Han was lying on the bed, feeling the slight swaying in the cabin. Since the magnitude of the vibration was not much, laying on the bed playing mobile games, he felt sleepy.
It had been three days since he arrived on the Westwind, and one-fifth of the fifteen-day trip had already passed.
It happened to be the first attraction today, and a lot of people on the boat went down.
He turned over in bed and suddenly glimpsed a flash of white light in the gloomy sky outside the window, and then he heard the dull sound of thunder coming from far away.
It was going to rain again.
Du Han got up and put the clothes drying on the small balcony back inside, and closed the door to block the rain from being blown in by the wind.
After packing his things, he laid down on the bed again, rubbing his face on the pillow, and before falling asleep, he recalled the course of investigation in his mind once again.
The subject of the investigation is Tang Rong, the boss of the Tang family. His wife Tang Yan hired Du Han to investigate Tang Rong’s affairs outside.
The summer is always especially hot when it’s about to rain, the clouds in the sky are black and they are blown forward by the hot wind one after another.
Du Han lowered the curtains that had been drawn, and went to the table to decrease the temperature of the air conditioner.
The TV on the side was playing a boring film. He supported his head to watch for sometime, and after a while he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. Just as he was about to fall asleep, a loud crackling sound of thunder was heard outside.
Du Han woke up with a start and sat straight on the sofa. The window somehow opened to form a small gap, and rain came in, and even splattered on the windowsill.
It was raining very heavily, and the wind blew out a white mist. He began to worry that in such heavy rain, whether the customer who had called in advance to make a reservation would come or not.
Du Han thought for a while, then picked up the phone on the side and dialled the number he had called two hours ago.
The phone beeped for a long time, but no one answered. He hung up the phone, thinking that the woman who called probably won’t come today.
Just as he was about to resume his sleep that had been interrupted earlier, there was a knock on the door.
Du Han walked over and saw a woman who was squeezing her sleeves through the cat’s eyes. He opened the door and asked, “Is this Ms. Tang?”

The woman nodded her head, and Du Han sidled up to let her in. It was only then that he noticed she was wearing a red dress, but the top had turned a darker color because of the rain.
“You were introduced to me by Wang Suzhen. She said that Detective Du is very reliable. You found out what happened to their family last time.”
Du Han took a dry towel and handed it to her to wipe her hair while listening to her. After thinking for a while, he remembered a case he took over last month.
The image of Mrs. Wang flashed in his mind, and Du Han poured a glass of water for Ms. Tang before sitting down on the sofa opposite her.
“Then…Ms. Tang also came to want me to investigate your husband’s cheating this time?”
Inadvertently, he glanced at her finger and saw a large diamond ring on her finger, as well as the messenger leather bag with a water bottle holder…it’s all expensive stuff.
The lady who was sitting across the table, Ms. Tang, froze for a moment, then smiled and said, “It’s really the same as in the novels.” Then pulled out a photo from the bag and handed it over. On it was the face of a fat middle-aged man with the only remaining hair combed with hairspray, looking at the camera with a serious expression.
“This is my husband Tang Rong, we have been married for thirty years, the relationship has always been very good, but recently he does not come home at night, he doesn’t answer my calls, but when he does come home, even from far away I can smell a woman’s perfume fragrance on his body”
Du Han remembered that Mrs. Tang’s face was distorted when she spoke about it, so he asked, “Mrs. Tang, your surname is also Tang?”
“Yes, my name is Tang Yan. This is my business card.” Tang Yan handed over a business card, Du Han took a look and found that the name of Tang’s investment company was written on it.
It turned out to be the Tang family, no wonder she rushed over to me to investigate her husband. Du Han thought to himself, put down the business card, smiled at Mrs. Tang, and said, “I have investigated a lot of things among the rich, I’ve seen such situations a lot. If this happens for a short time, I still recommend you to pretend not to know, it will be fine after a while.”
Tang Yan did not say anything, but took out another envelope from her pocket, she opened the envelope while saying, “This is the photo taken by someone that I set before, but he was found out, so only he (Tang Rong) was photographed, not the face of the b*tch.”
Du Han took out the photo from inside and looked at it for a while, and found that it was of Mr. Tang staring at the camera, and his left hand was holding the wrist of a woman in red.
The woman’s red dress felt a bit familiar. She pulled the brim of the big hat on her head with one hand, covering her face almost entirely, revealing only a small pointed white chin.
In this photo, Du Han could guess only by looking at the figure of the woman in red that she was young, definitely younger than him, not to mention compared with the Mrs. Tang in front of him.
He put the photo back and asked, “So you already know that your husband cheated on you, and also have evidence, so may I ask why did you still come to me?”
Tang Yan said, “Of course, I want you to continue the investigation about my husband. My lawyer said that only this photo can not be used as evidence of his cheating, I need more proof. But the detective who helped me last time has been found out, so this time I can only hire someone else.”
