Chapter 644 What if it really isn’t him?
"Wife!"

Regarding Lin Xi’s voice.

Chen Xiao naturally doesn't want to be too familiar with him.

So when the person outside the door spoke, Chen Xiao got up from the bed and ran quickly to the door.

Seeing Lin Xi looking tired and dusty, Chen Xiao quickly welcomed her in.

"How did you come?"

Chen Xiao opened the bottle of mineral water for her and asked with a smile on his face.

Lin Xi was full of anger: "It's all your fault. You didn't say anything when you came to Haicheng, so I had to go to Shencheng first. Fortunately, I went to find Guo Qing, and he told me about your coming to Haicheng."

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "I was talking to you on the phone just now, why did you keep asking me where I stayed, and you weren't surprised when I said I was in Haicheng."

"How are Xiaoji and Black Cat? Is there any news about them?" Lin Xi did not talk about his own affairs anymore, but asked about the whereabouts of Xiaoji and the others.

Chen Xiao shook his head: "No news yet."

Lin Xi looked at Chen Xiao with some concern.

She originally went to Shenzhen just to have a two-day rest, but Chen Xiao happened to be in trouble again so she ran over there.

But when she arrived in Shenzhen, she learned from Guo Qing that Xiaoji and the black cat were missing.

She knew Chen Xiao's character too well. Even though Xiaoji and Black Cat were not her, she was very clear that Chen Xiao had already regarded Black Cat and Xiaoji, especially Xiaoji, as his own brothers.

"If there is no news, then investigate slowly. Don't panic."

Lin Xi comforted Chen Xiao in a gentle tone, but Lao Gui behind him had a flash of envy in his eyes when he saw this scene.

Chen Xiao turned his head and looked at him, then smiled and said, "Wife, let me introduce you to Lao Gui. I mentioned him to you on the phone."

"Hello, Madam!" Lao Gui hurriedly greeted Lin Xi.

Lin Xi smiled and nodded: "Hello, Brother Gui, Chen Xiao always praises you a lot every time he calls me, and today I finally meet him in person."

Lao Gui scratched his head and said, "Oh, Madam, please don't say that. We are just doing things for the bosses. It's just our job."

"Anyway, thank you for taking care of Chen Xiao during this time."

"Of course I should." Lao Gui replied, ate a few bites and left the room.

As soon as he left, Lin Xi immediately reached out and hugged Chen Xiao:
"Now that I'm here, you don't have to worry anymore. Let's look for them together. Nothing will happen for sure."

If it weren't for the 66 yuan tip, Chen Xiao would still feel a little uneasy.

But now, Chen Xiao actually had nothing to worry about.

Seeing Chen Xiao looking at him with a smile on his face without saying a word, Lin Xi glanced at him twice, then narrowed his eyes and said:

"Are you...?"

Chen Xiao made a gesture to keep quiet, and Lin Xi was surprised. But the saying that husband and wife are of one mind is not nonsense, and Lin Xi understood it instantly.

"You've been on the road, you probably haven't eaten yet, right? I'll take you out to eat first."

"it is good."

Lin Xi nodded, and Chen Xiao took her out of the hotel and found a restaurant.

As soon as they sat down, Lin Xi asked, "Are you worried about Lao Gui? Do you even suspect that the room has been tampered with?" "It's unlikely, but we should be on guard."

"That means there's something wrong with Lao Gui, but that shouldn't be the case. You spoke to me on the phone before and approved of him so much."

Chen Xiao sighed, then told all his suspicions and subsequent investigations one by one.

After listening to his description, Lin Xi's face darkened:
"The real problem is that Hong Mei found out that he had been in contact with that woman. From this point, it can be seen that he is not absolutely loyal to Guo Qing. If Hong Mei continues to investigate that woman and finds out other things, then it can be confirmed that Lao Gui has a problem."

Chen Xiao was a little disappointed: "Yes, whether it is for Guo Qing or for me, Lao Gui is definitely the most perfect assistant. What a pity..."

Lin Xi nodded, but she did not continue with the topic. Instead, she turned to issues that concerned her more.

"So what's going on with Koji and Cat Noir? You don't look particularly worried about them."

Chen Xiao once again told Lin Xi his guess about the loss of contact between Xiaoji and Black Cat.

"It seems that their disappearance is indeed very strange. Judging from their personalities, the possibility of them being in danger is indeed not high. However, they don't have any acquaintances in Haicheng, and what is their purpose in deliberately disappearing?"

"An eye-catching trick." Chen Xiao said three words.

Lin Xi still didn't understand, so Chen Xiao replied:
"Before they got into trouble, Guo Qing received a call from Grandpa Guo's assistant. Although Guo Qing refused to tell me what happened to Grandpa Guo, I could guess that something must have gone wrong."

"I was worried and even a little panicked at first. But after what happened to Xiaoji, I no longer thought so."

"Besides, think about it, if something really happened to Grandpa Guo, how could he just avoid me?"

Lin Xi nodded continuously: "That makes sense. According to what you said, Xiaoji and Black Cat were most likely called away by Grandpa Guo."

"Yes."

"What do you think is Grandpa Guo's purpose?"

"I guess he already understood the whole story, but he couldn't tell me directly, so he made Xiaoji and Black Cat lose contact."

"But whether Xiaoji and Black Cat are missing or not won't help you with the case you want to investigate."

"Think about it carefully, is it really useless?" Chen Xiao asked back with a smile.

Lin Xi curled her lips, unhappy:
"Just to be frank, I finally got some rest, so I don't want to use my brain. Besides, isn't it enough for me to use your brain?"

Chen Xiao smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, okay!"

"In fact, the purpose of doing this is very simple, that is to transfer me directly from Shencheng, which is at the center of the storm. Because Grandpa Guo may have realized that the reason why I have spent so much time and still haven't figured out the root cause of a missing case is that the opponent's defense is too strong!"

"If I had stayed in Shencheng the whole time, the other party would have kept the city gates closed forever. But now that I'm gone, there's a chance that he might open the city gates and take a look outside!"

Lin Xi suddenly realized and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "If everything you guessed is true, then Grandpa Guo is really experienced."

Chen Xiao sighed: "At this point, I have actually seen through the essence of the Zhu Nianying case. This is not a case at all, but a crisis that occurred at the beginning of the Zuo Shu case!"

"So we can only passively wait for an opportunity?"

"Since Zuo Shu, my position has been passive. But my intuition tells me that this series of events should be over soon. All the pressure from all sides has been poured towards Huang Zhao, so he can't hold on for long, unless the real culprit behind the Zhu Nianying case is not him!"

Listening to Chen Xiao's words, Lin Xi nodded silently.

But the next second, I don't know whether she was unintentional or intentional, she suddenly said:
"What if it really wasn't him?"
