Chapter 522 - [Bonus ]SEARChapter THE HOUSE
"Another thing, the forensic team found a drug in her blood. Guess what drug it is."
Han Luo covered her mouth. "Don't tell me…"
Noah continued, "Yeah, your guess is correct. She told us someone fed her diamonds. She became addicted to it. The fun part is, no one could realize that she was drug-addicted.
"She came to China to create a distraction. The person who always sent her drugs ordered her to move you away from others. Their plan was to kill you."
Han Luo clenched her fists. "Who… who is that person?"
Noah shook his head. "Don't know. She didn't tell us. Before she could, the bombs blast."
Han Luo hugged her body. She felt chilling run down her spine.
"Then someone was monitoring us without us knowing. When they realized that they were going to be exposed, they tried to kill you all.
"But I don't understand one thing. Why didn't they try to kill us when I was in that building? The main purpose was to kill me, right?"
Upon hearing her question, Noah paused.
"I was also thinking the same thing. Maybe, killing you wasn't what they wanted. If they truly wanted to kill you, they could do it before we went inside or after we went inside and you were still there. Maybe it's just a diversion."
Han Luo's heart trembled. "Diversion? From what?"
"I don't know. I'm not sure what is going to happen. By the way, I'm still in the hospital, you know. I can't get out in the meantime. Our Chief will contact you."
"So, you are badly injured."
"Nothing much. Just my left hand is fractured. Punk, you need to be careful."
"Don't worry. I'll be careful. You just rest and get better soon."
Han Luo hung up and sat on her bed. She covered her face.
'What is going on? Who is targeting me? If it's only a diversion, what's their real motive?'
At that moment, someone knocked on her door. When she opened the door, she found Mo Yuan with a tray of food.
"You skipped your meal. The chef warmed your meal."
He placed the tray on the table and then glanced at her.
"What's wrong? Why are you worried?"
Concerned, his thumb brushed over her cheek.
Han Luo decided to tell him. She closed the door and said, "You see, something big happened…"
After hearing everything, Mo Yuan frowned.
"This is a serious offense. You might have died," he remarked.
"Fortunately, nothing happened to Noah and his team members. I'm not sure how I will explain all that to big brother Ming."
Han Luo hung her head in worry.
Mo Yuan did his best to ease her concern, "You have nothing to fear. You did nothing wrong. He will understand."
Han Luo held his hand.
"I'm not sure what the diversion was for. But, I know one thing. We cannot delay. We must do something. Let's find the culprit first. We should start with my mommy's document."
"Whatever you want."
Afterward, after planning thoroughly, Han Luo, Mo Yuan, Han Sheng Ming, and Tang Yujin split up and looked around the house.
Ha Luo checked her and her parents' bedrooms. Mo Yuan checked the study room. Han Sheng Ming went to the garage and Tang Yujin asked around.
From Tang Yujin's interrogation, it was found that there was a footman who worked for Han Luo's father, Han Ying Wei.
After the car accident, he resigned and two months later, he died from an illness.
"What about his family members? What happened to them?" Tang Yujin asked.
The cook answered, "I'm not sure. I think they moved to the village. After all, the wife couldn't raise two daughters in Beijing. It's too expensive."
Tang Yujin told Mo Yuan to check the footman's detailed information. Han Sheng Ming gave them a hand.
While they were looking through the documents, Han Luo excitedly declared, "I found a hidden room."
The boys heard her voice from downstairs. They exchanged glances and went upstairs. They spotted Han Luo in front of her room.
She dragged the boys inside. "I can't believe there is a hidden room in my bedroom! See?"
Just as she said, they noticed a pink door right beside the bookshelf. It seemed that the bookshelf was moved away from the original place.
"How did you find out?" Han Sheng Ming asked.
Han Luo was thrilled by the sudden discovery.
"By accident. I stumbled on the carpet and tried to grab my bookshelf. I pushed too hard I guess, it moved on its own."
"If it's that easy, why didn't anyone find this secret door?" Mo Yuan questioned them.
"Let's go inside and find out the answer," Tang Yujin strode forward and twisted the knob.
However, the door didn't open no matter what he did.
"That's strange. It doesn't have a lock. Why won't it open?"
Han Sheng Ming was puzzled. He also tried to open it but couldn't.
Without a word, Mo Yuan opened the door and then abruptly grabbed Han Luo's hand and pressed her fingers on the doorknob.
Surprising them all, the door quietly opened.
"I think Ah Luo's fingerprints are the key here. That's why she can easily move the bookshelf and open the door."
Upon hearing Mo Yuan's explanation, Han Sheng Ming tried to move the bookshelf with all his might but all in vain.
"Big brother Yuan is amazing! How did you figure it out?"
Han Luo's eyes were glittering. She was elevated.
Mo Yuan dotingly smiled. "It's because your husband is a genius."
Han Luo's face instantly turned red. She regretted asking him this question.
Han Sheng Ming's expression turned sour.
"All right, enough of that. Let's see what's inside."
He held his cousin's hand and took her inside the hidden room.
They located hidden stairs in the dark narrow room. Turning on their mobile torches, they climbed down the stairs.
There was another door at the end of the stairs. Han Luo let the door scan her fingerprints and then the door opened like the previous door.
The moment they entered the room, the room lit up brightly.
By the attack of the light, they quickly shut their eyes. Gradually, they adjusted their eyes to the eyes and looked around.
"Wow! This is amazing!"
