Chapter 616: Chapter 616: Have You Fallen for Me 9_1

"Yes, I rushed back overnight, and didn’t arrive in the capital until after one o’clock," He Zhilan nodded, then went inside and sat down next to Lin Chan. She said, "I ran into a man when I checked out of the hotel this morning! A man with a colorful mandarin duck tattooed at the tiger’s mouth, he ran away as soon as he saw me!"

He Zhilan thought about the details, then continued, "However, the man’s tattoo was on his left hand, not his right hand. He probably didn’t know me, because when I appeared in front of him, he didn’t react at all. He even looked perplexed when I grabbed his hand. It wasn’t until I started speaking, he seemed to glance at the register on the front desk. He probably saw my name on it and then ran off. So, I think he must have heard my name from someone but doesn’t know me. Furthermore, he definitely knew about Gu En’s contract killing."

"Mandarin ducks?" Lin Chan laughed, "A man with a mandarin duck tattoo, isn’t that a little effeminate? And it’s colorful too!"

However, his expression quickly changed as if he had realized something, and his face turned serious.

"No." Lin Chan shook his head, "One on the left hand, one on the right, both men."

"Although mandarin ducks represent a couple at this time, in the old days, they were used to symbolize brotherhood. So, you’re thinking what I’m thinking, aren’t you? This man I saw today and the man the truck driver’s wife saw must be very close brothers. Even if they aren’t blood-related, they must be very close."

"Right." Lin Chan tapped his fingers on the table, then quickly made a call to Chen Yun, "This morning, He Zhilan ran into a man who had a mandarin duck tattooed on the tiger’s mouth of his left hand. As soon as he saw He Zhilan, he ran away. Send people to check in a few tattoo shops in the capital. There shouldn’t be many who have mandarin ducks tattooed at the tiger’s mouth, maybe we can get some clues."

After saying this, Lin Chan asked He Zhilan, "Which hotel did you encounter him in this morning?"

"The Red Sun Hotel near the train station." After giving the name, He Zhilan added, "He was with a female regular of the hotel. Perhaps, we could learn something from her."

Lin Chan murmured ’female regular’, then a few seconds later, he understood. He told Chen Yun about it and asked him to investigate. Maybe they will really find some clues.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chan turned to He Zhilan and knocked on her head, "What exactly happened yesterday? You’ve got guts, coming back to the capital alone in the middle of the night. Didn’t even think to call me so I could pick you up from the train station! And that’s not all, after arriving in the capital, you didn’t think to find me? Or to go to the Lin Family’s house? Didn’t know the way, or didn’t have money for a taxi? A girl by herself, staying in a hotel at night, you’re brave. You got lucky you didn’t run into any trouble. If you did, I wonder what you would do?"

This was the first time Lin Chan reprimanded He Zhilan like this, revealing a face full of blame. He would vent his frustration by giving a slight knock on her forehead after every other sentence, "You see me as a stranger? You are so indifferent, you should have thought about informing me about any matters, good or bad! I see you as a sister, don’t treat me as a stranger! I, Lin Chan, am at your beck and call, you should appreciate it more and make good use of it!"
