Chapter 194: Chapter 194: Hello, is this Brother Chen?

Translator: 549690339

After exiting the private room at the cafe, Xiang Kun didn’t leave immediately. Instead, he pretended to wander off and went to the restroom.

His attention was always on Zhang Qian in the private room, hoping to pick up on any news.

Luckily, Zhang Qian didn’t spend all her time texting on WeChat, otherwise all his effort would have been in vain.

After overhearing Zhang Qian’s phone conversation with Yang Jie, Xiang Kun finally realized that the two children he had casually saved in the past, alongside Tang Baona and Xia Libing, were actually Zhang Qian’s cousins.

Then he quickly recalled their past conversation, and the attitude Zhang Qian showed when Director Lin was there, the change in the “financier” mentioned by his old online buddy, and the different ways the Zhang family thanked the four of them who participated in the rescue of the children, Xiang Kun further speculated:

If the project goes smoothly in the future and is successful after going live, then Zhang Qian’s approval will be the “wisest decision”.

If the project encounters problems, the one who found Xiang Kun was Director Lin. Zhang Qian, though, could say “Isn’t this the benefactor of the Zhang family?”

This damn win-win situation!

Xiang Kun calculated with a somewhat sinister thought.

He didn’t stay in the restroom for too long. Once he heard what he wanted, he left.

But at the entrance of the hotel, Xiang Kun stopped. Instead of heading to the bus stop according to his plan, he took out his phone and acted like he was waiting for someone.

He noticed someone in an old Accord parked across the street, secretly taking pictures of this side.

Normally, given the distance and it being night with no much lighting, most would not have been able to see. But Xiang Kun, with better vision than most people, night vision mode, and infrared thermal imaging mode, he had a vigilance and always subconsciously gathered all kinds of information wherever he went.

Is it the police on duty?

It seems to have nothing to do with me, don’t meddle in it, right?

Xiang Kun thought for a moment and decided to go back home as planned. However, when he got to the edge of the road, he suddenly discovered that the spy transferred the lens to him and heard a faint shutter sound.

Pic of me?

Xiang Kun’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed. If he was photographed at the entrance of the hotel, it could be said he was inadvertently included in the background. But now that he had moved this far and was still being photographed, there was no doubt he was being targeted.

But that’s not right, if this person followed him over, there’s no way he wouldn’t have noticed.

Xiang Kun walked towards the convenience store located next to the car, then began to collect the smell emanating from the car. Soon he caught a familiar scent, which he compared with the scents stored in his mind and found a match.

Xiang Kun’s brain worked at lightning speed, recalling who the matched scent belonged to. When he came here at around eight o’clock, there was a middle-aged man playing with his mobile phone on the sofa next to the coffee shop in the lobby. When Xiang Kun arrived at the entrance of the café and told the waiter who he was looking for, that man made a subtle movement with his phone.

At that time, Xiang Kun didn’t find this strange. But now in retrospect, that guy must have been secretly taking photos with his phone!

After quickly reviewing the situation in his mind, Xiang Kun concluded: the person’s primary target should not be him, but the three of them, including

Zhang Qian. The only reason he was noticed was that he came to meet them.

To make a judgment based on the identity, it is more likely it was targeted at Zhang Qian.

Xiang Kun used all his senses to “observe” the surroundings and found no other “stalkers”. He basically concluded that the person was not a police officer.

Because when the police set up such operations, they would have at least a two-person team. Even if the objective conditions only allow for one person, there would surely be supportive personnel nearby.

So is it a private stalking?

Pervert? Private detective?

Xiang Kun made guesses in his heart while buying a bottle of mineral water from the convenience store.

He walked towards the direction of the bus stop. Almost at the corner, the person in the car didn’t look at him anymore and didn’t show any intent to follow him with the car. Xiang Kun confirmed once again that the target was the people in the hotel.

Xiang Kun dialed Officer Chen’s number: “Hello, Brother Chen? What are you up to, have you gotten off work?”

Officer Chen said somewhat irritably: “Speak, what happened again?”

“Look at what you’re saying, as if I’m a troublemaker… Well, here’s what happened. I took a job today, a very decent one, you know, writing programs for a company. I’m a unemployed programmer now. Then I discovered, opposite the hotel entrance there’s a car, and in it, there’s a person with a camera who has been spying on the hotel. He seems to have photographed me too… Officer Chen, isn’t this violating others’ portrait and privacy rights?”

Officer Chen suddenly raised his voice: “You must not act recklessly! Where are you, I will contact colleagues in the vicinity…

Xiang Kun immediately reported the location of the hotel, then said, “Don’t worry, Brother Chen, I will not show up and cause trouble. I will help you keep an eye on him.”

So he stayed in the blind spot of that man’s vision, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, a black SUV drove over. It stopped beside the Accord, and surprisingly, Officer Chen got out.

Xiang Kun didn’t go over. Relying on his enhanced senses, he could understand the dialogue and situation over there perfectly well.

After questioning, the middle-aged man driving the Accord was taken away by Officer Chen. From the dialogue, it seemed that he was a private detective hired to investigate someone.

But who exactly he was investigating wasn’t immediately clear, and he had to ask Officer Chen to confirm later.

However, preliminary examination suggests that someone was investigating Zhang Qian.

Should I inform her?

Uh, but I don’t have her WeChat or phone number, do I need to inform her through Director Lin?

Xiang Kun thought for a moment, ultimately deciding not to do anything. He believed that since Chen had caught the private detective, Zhang Qian should be able to find out soon.

If he remembered correctly, the act of spying and photographing others’ privacy violated the Public Security Management Punishment Law. Considering Zhang Qian appeared in the photographs and the private detective’s main target was Zhang Qian, the police should inform Zhang Qian.

So there’s nothing Xiang Kun needs to worry about.

No matter if this is a family grievance or some other behavior at the core, he doesn’t want to get involved in the trouble.

The next morning, Director Lin sent him a WeChat message, then arranged a meeting place, saying he wanted to discuss the specific details of cooperation and the contract.

Xiang Kun had learned from Officer Chen last night that the person who hired the private detective to follow and investigate was Zhang Qian’s first cousin. And Zhang Qian already knew about this.

Possibly due to Zhang Qian’s instructions, Director Lin basically agreed to all of Xiang Kun’s unreasonable requests.. However, when he saw Director Lin’s complicated and strange eyes and expression, Xiang Kun couldn’t help but wonder what exactly Zhang Qian had told him, whether he had misunderstood something?
