Chapter 774: Clues About Garden Owner

Chapter 774: Clues about Garden Owner

“To find out what happened that day, I’ve tried my best to investigate. Butterfly is my only clue, but I have tried to capture it for a decade, and I’m still nowhere close. Sometimes, I even suspect Butterfly is not real but a symbolism.” Li Xue’s teacher didn’t hide his past. His body couldn’t sustain him much longer. The only wish of his life was to capture Butterfly. The elder focused on the third sentence. He used Butterfly as the opening. However, Han Fei’s focus was on the garden owner’s second sentence.

‘All thirty orphans are dead. Why is it thirty? Is the blood red night related to the garden owner?’ Han Fei believed that the culprit was Mad Laughter and Immortal Pharma, but he realized things were not that simple. There were some other forces present that night.

“Sir, the garden owner said that you’re his third creation, so there have to be at least two more creations before you…” Han Fei thought that perhaps Mad Laughter was also the garden owner’s creation, but he didn’t point it out because Mad Laughter had to be a secret.

“We’ve investigated for a long time, but we couldn’t find the owner’s other creations. However, we did notice that there were a lot more murders with the theme of death after that day. We believe they are all related to the garden owner.”

“There’s a murderer’s clubhouse in the countryside. Those animals see death as a tool for their art creation. I can confirm that the garden owner runs the clubhouse. They will grade death and find excuses to justify their crimes. The garden owner is controlling everything behind the scene.” Han Fei shared everything he knew. He couldn’t help but picture the blind dancer when he listened to Li Xue’s teacher. The two elders felt like they were from the same era. Han Fei probed, “Sir, do you remember ever meeting someone who dances very well in your cases? He should have a partner who is very good at gardening.”

“A very good dancer?” The elder thought for a long time. “There is a case that’s related to a dancer. It happened a few decades ago. Xin Lu’s only master dancer disappeared. It caused a huge commotion. However, the dancer’s family refused to report it. They also refused to cooperate with the police.”

“What is the dancer’s name?”

“His surname is Li. I can’t remember his full name. But his granddaughter is an actor. You’ve worked with her on a variety show before.”

“Really?” The only variety shows Han Fei had been on was the ‘livestream’ at the hospital. A name came to him. “Li Feng?”

“Yes. Their family has great talent in the arts. They have created many memorable creations.”

“Sir, the disappearance of that dancer is not that simple. I suggest you reopen the case with the dancer as the focus. Do not miss out on anyone around him. You should find something.” Han Fei didn’t expect to find info on the blind dancer in real life. He was very happy.

“I will pay attention.” After a moment’s silence, Li Xue’s teacher said something, “Han Fei, you’ve asked me many questions today. Can I ask you one question in return?”

“Sure.”

“Where did you hear the term, garden owner? Other than my most trusted doctor and colleague, I’ve not mentioned that to anyone else before.” The elder’s tone was serious.

“I…”

“You don’t need to answer. I hope that you will remain rational.” Li Xue’s teacher seemed to know something. “Heroes and villains are just a thought away.”

“Don’t worry. My heart will not change no matter how hard the situation is.”

After Han Fei ended the call, Han Fei got Li Feng’s address from Jin Jun.

As Xin Lu’s actor, Li Feng used to have a lot of work. However, after she shot that variety show with Han Fei, she paused all of her jobs and stayed at home. Actually, everyone from that variety show, other than Han Fei, had their career halted.

When it was almost noon, Han Fei arrived at Li Feng’s home. He waved at the camera. Several seconds later, the front door opened. Li Feng, with a disheveled appearance, looked at Han Fei in shock. “How did you find out about my address?”

“I want to ask you something.”

“You can call!” Li Feng poked her head out the door and looked around, “Come in!”

“Will it be any trouble?”

“Are you seriously asking me that?” Li Feng grabbed Han Fei and dragged him into her house. “Were you followed by the paparazzi when you came here?”

“I found your address from the paparazzi.” Han Fei stood awkwardly at the door. He didn’t know whether he should change his shoes or not. This was his first time visiting a female actor’s home.

“You sure are brave.” Li Feng didn’t know what to say. “I’m almost 10 years older than you. If there’s a scandal, a lot of female fans will leave you.”

“You don’t need to worry about that. Most of my fans are fans of the law.” Han Fei touched his face. He felt like Li Feng was praising his looks in a roundabout way.

“I… Anyway, sit. I’ll grab something for you to drink.” Li Feng combed her hair. Then, she realized she wasn’t wearing make-up and was dressed in her pajamas. “I’m sorry. I’m quite casual in private.”

“I came too suddenly.” Han Fei looked around the room. The celebrity’s house was smaller than Jin Jun’s home. It was very simple. There were various medals and a lot of charity certificates on her wall. There was no news about Li Feng donating to any charity online, but she had been doing that quietly.

“Don’t look. It’s quite embarrassing.” Li Feng pulled her hair up in a ponytail after she changed. She grabbed two drinks to block the view of the certificates. “You saved me during the last show we shot together. I haven’t had the chance to thank you. If you need anything, just tell me.” Li Feng was a kind person. She was the only one who wanted to go back to save Han Fei back then.

“Actually…” Han Fei still had some social anxiety. He stared at Li Feng. He remembered what Li Xue’s teacher said. The dancer’s family didn’t go to the police, so they must have had some difficulties.

“Why are you hesitating now? If you need anything, just say it!” Li Feng placed the drink before Han Fei and sat down. “You’ve once saved my life. If it’s not against the law, I’ll help you with anything.”

“I don’t think you can handle this alone. Can you get auntie and uncle here too?” Han Fei wanted to ask about Li Feng’s grandfather. However, when the elder disappeared, Li Feng was just a child. She wouldn’t know more than her parents.

“You want to meet my parents?!” Li Feng paused for a moment. Then, her cheeks blushed. “I’m warning you. Don’t joke like that.”

“I’m serious.” Han Fei looked at the juice inside the cup. “I know you’ll think that this is sudden, but I have to do this.”

“No, absolutely not!” Li Feng immediately stopped Han Fei.

“Why?” Han Fei didn’t expect such a firm rejection.

“You are on the rise in your career. Plus, you have great potential. I can’t drag you down.” Li Feng persuaded Han Fei. “I’ve seen many celebrities ruined by scandals. Fame is your curse and blessing. Leave after having this drink. If any bad media reports on this, just say that it’s me who called you over.” Li Feng looked straight at Han Fei.

“Have you misunderstood something?” Han Fei felt like they were not talking about the same thing. “I’m investigating a case that is related to your grandfather. That’s why I want you to ask your parents over so that we can talk about it.”

“A case?” Li Feng took three seconds before she recovered. She picked up the cup to cover up her embarrassment. She took too big of a gulp and started coughing.

“Are you alright?”

“So you came so early in the morning for a case?”

“Now you understand why it’s so hard for me to explain.” Han Fei passed a tissue to Li Feng.

“Can I curse?” Li Feng took a long time to adjust herself. Her face felt a bit hot.

“This case is key. It involved the lives of more than ten people. I need to get to the bottom of it.” Han Fei’s voice was even and calm. He was charming when he was serious.

“My grandfather’s disappearance is a family taboo, but… I can try to convince my parents.” Li Feng video-called her parents. The call was soon accepted. Li Feng’s father looked very kind. He was happy to receive her call. “Daughter, why are you calling home? Stop buying things for us. We do not lack anything. Don’t waste money.”

“Move. Let me talk to our daughter.” Li Feng’s mother pushed her husband away. “You’re not young already. You’re almost 40. Why aren’t you settling down yet? When your father and I were your age…” Then Li Feng’s mother stopped, and her eyebrows rose. She saw Han Fei’s reflection. “So young?” Li Feng’s mother slapped her husband’s shoulders. “Look!”

“Can you not embarrass me when I have a guest?” Li Feng smiled with shame. She wished to delete the memory of the day. Her image was ruined now.

“Who is that? He looks so familiar. Quick introduce us.”

“He’s here for a case. Don’t be like this.” Li Feng walked into the bedroom with her phone. She came out half an hour later.

“Auntie and Uncle didn’t agree?” Han Fei asked uncertainly.

“You can talk to them yourself. I’ve told them that you’re working with the police but they still don’t want to say anything.” Li Feng handed her phone to Han Fei.

The couple’s face was hard. They studied Han Fei. “Child, we can’t tell you because we need to protect you. You still have a bright future.”

“Auntie, uncle, thank you, but the elder’s disappearance is related to more than ten people’s lives. I can’t stop my investigation.” Han Fei’s attitude was firm.

“Sorry, we can’t help you.”

Han Fei suddenly stood up. “You might not believe me, but I’ve seen that elder.” He fixed the phone and pushed the couch away. “This dance is my proof.” Han Fei performed Me.

Han Fei’s dance was like a record of time. It recorded the moments of a person’s life.

After the dance was over, Li Feng’s parents had complicated expressions. In the end, they relented. “Fine. What do you want to know?”

“Before the elder disappeared, did he meet any strange people or strange events? Is there someone worth noting in the place you once lived?” The garden owner was an Unmentionable. They couldn’t be mentioned in the cryptic world, so Han Fei had to carry out the investigation in real life.

“I know who you’re looking for.” Li Feng’s father was silent for a long time before speaking. “In the past, we lived at the edge of the intelligent city. It was the poorest zone. One day, when dad came back from performance, we noticed a family moved in next door.” “A new neighbour?”

“Yes. The family was very unique. The father and mother were blind, so their progeny was the family’s eyes and hope.”
